Does funcom make fun games?

[M͂͒̀λgi͡caℓ Ήo͓̽ﻇo̴]

Curious if anything they made in the past was actually good...

I really like the dune lore..

Nope, to be honest all of their multiplayer focused games suck lol.

That's very unfortunate.

Conan Exiles is actually a lot of fun, many dislike it because they'd initially mistook it as an on rails MMO similar to Star Trek Online or Star Wars Old Republic.

Don't believe a lot of these saltier players; Funcom knows what they're doing, many are just too lazy to play a game that's actually challenging.

Conan exiles is a flawed but good game.

I had a butt ton of fun in Secret World

[cpuman]

it's not the same funcom anymore, tencent bought them out (which is essentially owned by the ccp, and helped the ccp spy on its citizens) and they have a track record of adding in micro transactions in all of their games, so don't expect this to be a game with a monthy sub and that's it. They call it an mmo but that's such a loose term now that it could very well be conan exiles with big worms, and they even found a way to slap FOMO and micro transactions in it, so be very careful with your approach to it. I definitely won't be buying it at launch, and probably not directly from steam after either depending on what kind of game it is.

TENCENT BOUGHT THEM AS WELL?!
TBEY BOUGHT FATSHARK OUT AS WELL!

the devs that made the Warhammer vermintide series. Tencent is A Chinese
mobile type corporation that absorbs games and microtransactions the hell out of them.

Ya this game is going to blow

[Stundar]

I still have a lot of fun with Conan Exiles, depends on your taste.

thats not true most of their games are alot of fun but they are clearly lacking something that could potentially make them great

Conan Exiles- Fun
Age of Conan- Fun
Secret World- Fun
Mutant Year Zero- Fun
Dreamfall- Fun to some
Anarchy Online- Was fun last time I checked.
Samurai Shodown- Fun

Idk what to tell ya. It's up to yourself to choose an opinion I guess. Personally Age of Conan and Conan Exiles are some of my fave games, though AOC was years ago. And Secret World before F2p was a dope experience.

Conan Exiles -

Was fun until 3.0 and all the chainsaw nerf. Peoples not interested in the sorcery are left behind. People who were enjoying having a working thrall are now left with a buggy mess that can get killed without even fighting back.

Secret World - Was fun until they change the system and had a lot of people scammed out of their paid for things in the store.

Changing a game after 5 years to include a battlepass and other microtransaction tell a lot about what kind of direction a company has taken.

secret world was really fun

[Silver Shroud]

Funcom make super broken games :) don't expect Dune will be somehow playable at release. But Conan is pretty fun game, when they fixed bugs, after years past release.

[AJV]

Age of Conan was a good time for awhile

[Dilligaf]

I had a fun in all their games but they were also some of the worst launches of all time. There have been worse launches too date but at the time of launch they were horrendous.
