Funcom Gives Us Our First Look At Conan Exiles In A Developer Diary

There's not a game to be seen yet, but Funcom are eagerly showing off what they have of Conan Exiles in a new Developer Diary. In the developer diary, the team talks about the game and some of the tech they are planning on using in-game.

It all sounds pretty standard fare—only with the Conan license. You start in the desert, left for dead. You kill animals and collect resources. You build houses. You survive. When you're done surviving in the desert, you move on to different biomes.

It will be interesting to see if the fast-paced, gory combat ends up having a good feel to it. The footprint and sand tech is also nice. The question is whether it will all be enough to set the game apart in an increasingly crowded genre, given the fairly generic premise.
