: This game shines in active multiplayer servers. A cracked or standalone P2P torrent will lock you out of official Funcom servers. You are effectively restricted to local co-op or solo single-player.
: The building mechanics are arguably some of the best in the survival genre. The physics system requires structural integrity, making complex castle building a fun, challenging puzzle.
: You are an exile left to die in a harsh desert, forced to hunt, build, and fight to survive in the brutal world of Conan the Barbarian.
: The absolute best feature of the game. You can knock out NPCs, break them on a "Wheel of Pain," and turn them into defensive guards, fighters, or specialized crafters.
: If you play co-op with a friend on a local machine (not a dedicated server), the second player will be locked to a "tether distance" from the host, which can severely limit exploration.
