This or Conan Exiles?

[Nicso]

Should I invest my time in this or Conan Exiles? Mostly PvE but I'll probably do some PvP at some point. I get burnt-out if I chop too much wood at the same time, so I only want to do one. Thoughts?

[Volkov]

Conan Exiles is a fairly shallow game in terms of PvE content and scaling. This game has many more options for automating things like resource gathering and coop-play, imo.

Conan is far superior to this game. Myth starts out ok but then you gonna see that everyone is exploiting and the combat is awful. Get conan much better PVE game aswell.

I'm not going to argue that the combat in Conan Exiles is a spectacle of acrobatics and a lot of fantasy, all the time in combat you are jumping from one side to the other, but let's be honest, the combat in Conan Exiles is easy and absolutely predictable, there is no precision of any kind, NPCs and boses are easy to kill. Plus, Conan Exiles has a terrible slave system... in fact, it's ridiculous to put the slave in your inventory. Slaves don't even know how to ride horses.

In early access Myth of Empires is a thousand times more complete in every way.

- More configuration options
- More possibilities to adjust the difficulty
- More gameplay,
- Better progression in the medium and long term.
- More realism and consistency in mechanics
- Better graphics
- Better optimization in High and Ultra
- Better ambient sound
- More missions
- Better construction
- Best management system
- Better tribe, clan system
- Best slave system
- Best dressage system
- Best cultivation system
- Largest technology tree
- More skills
- Better combat against NPCs
- Better exploration

Ohhh, sorry, I think 5G is obviously superior to 4G. Accept it.

I've had fun with Conan Exiles for a long time, but now there's no point in playing it again.

Both games are great. Conan is more polished of course, but I think this game is a bit more indepth. Conan's got a great rp community if you're into that. You really cant go wrong with either choice.

[EnglishBob]

if you like survival games you need to play both, there is no reason to choose between.

[Slamz]

PvE: Conan is better. Especially the raids the NPCs do. Makes it like a real survival game.

PvP: MoE is better. Suffers from a lot of similar problems but the horseback combat is way better and the offline defense options are also way better.

[Khotec]

Saying that Conan Exiles is better in PVE is a complete error resulting from ignorance. Of course, I am playing Myth of Empires in solo mode (PVE) and I am basing it only on the experience accumulated at level 46. At that level I have already seen a thousand times more content than everything seen in Conan Exiles with all its DLC's , including more than 50 mods, most of them heavy.

In fact, Myth of Empires is a perfect copy/paste of Conan Exiles and ARK Survival. The Boys at Angela Game have taken into account all the content contributed by the Conan Exiles modding community, in fact, the majority of mods developed for Conan Exiles are also present in the main structure of Myth of Empires. The result of that experience is surely the best survival game to date. It would be absurd to make a copy of a game without at least improving it in some aspects. It is obvious that the comparisons are terribly unfavorable for Conan Exiles, since said game does not offer so many options, so many mechanics and so much depth in PVP and of course, in PVE.

If someone believes that this is not true, they can simply prepare a detailed analysis citing those characteristics that are distinguished in both titles and in the end, in this comparison we will find answers that define the quantitative and qualitative aspects in both games, always in favor of Myth of Empires.

Comparison in PVE in Solo Mode:

Myth of Empires
- More configuration options
- More possibilities to adjust the difficulty.
- More gameplay,
- Better progression in the medium and long term.
- More realism and coherence in the mechanics.
- Better graphics
- Better optimization in High and Ultra
- Better ambient sound
- More missions
- Better construction
- Better management system.
- Best tribe, clan system.
- Best slave system
- Best dressage system
- Best cultivation system
- Larger tech tree
- More skills
- More realistic directional combat against NPCs
- Better exploration

Conan exiles
- More action and more dynamic and acrobatic combats, but less realistic
- Better combat animations with wild animals and boses
- More dungeons

In short, I have played hundreds of hours of Conan Exiles with all its DLCs and more than 50 mods installed, including Age of Calamitous. It is undoubtedly a great game, but right now it is completely out of date with Myth of Empires.

In other words, in Conan Exiles you need all the DLCs and more than 100 mods installed correctly just to equal 25%, or maybe 50% of the possibilities that Myth of Empires offers in solo mode (PVE). In that sense, Myth of Empires is an advantageous newcomer and, above all, with a lot of time and potential.

I repeat, my experience is based solely on PVE and therefore, I have only compared the mechanics that both games have in PVE.

pve conan without a doubt. this is mostly all for pvp. if you want solo, then forget it, you only get half of the content

[DocBockNstein]

If you prefer more souls like combat then conan is more your game. If you enjoy mount and blade then you will really like this game.

[Floygon Gin]

Both are good really

[BeautifulRnr]

conan sucks i played it for like 3 hrs and refunded this game i have close to 1500 hrs. much much better

[Styles]

Conan is better end of story

The slave system is supposed to be the central pillar of Conan Exiles, so we have to wonder, why didn't they make it possible for a warrior to follow you on horseback?

The slave system in Conan Exiles is too basic and does not allow followers to ride horses. They can only follow you on foot.

In Myth of Empires you can form a caravan with NPC warriors on horseback, they can follow you and drive carts carrying resources while you drive another cart. They can also sit as passengers. When you see that, you realize that Conan Exiles is completely stunted. This is the case with the rest of Conan Exiles' mechanics.

In Conan Exiles, craftsmen and workers are placed on a workbench and you cannot use them as warriors. That sucks too.

In Myth of Empires, workers can fulfill any function without giving up being warriors and follow you on your adventures when you decide.

In Conan Exiles the design of the animals and mounts is grotesque.

The Conan Exiles farming system is very basic and limited.

The horseback combat in Conan Exiles is flawed and very unwieldy.

I could continue comparing the rest of the mechanics and demonstrate with facts and not with simple words, that Myth of Empires is a state-of-the-art game, far superior to any other survival game.

Myth of Empires always comes out on top in all quality comparisons, including the price.

If you are going to recommend a game, at least provide the necessary information and don't try to confuse people who may not be able to buy all the games.

Baited you into typing another essay good job mate.

I have to admit - so far I like Conan more. I am about 3 hours of game play into Conan and almost 2 hours into Myth of Empires.

Conan is definitely way more polished. However, I do believe Myth of Empires has a lot of potential and could be an amazing game. I always wanted something that was "Civilization-like but from a third person view."

Thoughts on Myth of Empires:
The UI in Myth of Empires is absolutely horrible.
The combat isn't awful but it's not great. Reminds me of For Honor and Bannerlord.
The difficulty is way higher since everything can kill you 3 or 4 hits.
No dodge action.
Game runs poorly - needs more optimization.
Tons of customization options as I scanned through the unlocks.
The map looks fun.
History of the dev's makes me worry if the game will actually be developed more.
World feels alive with all the wildlife and wind effect on trees.

I hit level 20 in my 2 hours with the game. Died twice due to wildlife. Never ran into an NPC.

I agree with what most said here, it seems like Conan is better for single players who want to do PvE while MoE is for people who want to do more clan/guild based PvP.

Only a few hours in both so I won't make any recommendations yet. The UI is definitely a huge turnoff in MoE though. It is so hideous , un-intuitive, and, clunky.
