Although each task does feel massive in the grand scope of things, figuring out how to craft armour out of insect parts, building a shelter to rest at, and even analyzing new items is an accomplishment. Analyzing items allows for new crafting options to become available, while also increasing the player’s science level, more on that later though.Īttention to detail is superb here, drinking random water off the floor poisons the player which leads to finding clean water sources - such as dew droplets - another necessary task, unlike when you drink from urinals in Fallout: New Vegas which barely punishes the player. The crafting menus can feel a tad overwhelming at first and forcing the player to wait before revealing more item aspects is a good way to force you back outdoors to explore. The first discovery I have made was a small research shack, which there are MANY of, where only ‘Analyzing’ found resources can be done three times before being forced to wait for the battery to recharge. Small ‘lawn mites’ are no match for the prowess of the now Conan Exiles’ equipped Max, and gathering resources becomes easier with the new tool. After making myself a small axe from a rock, plant fibre, and a small plant stalk, I have means of defending myself. After escaping the case and venturing out, blades of grass stand far taller than your small frame, small pebbles can be picked up and utilized as throwing weapons or fashioned into better weapons with handles.
