      Thanks Melanie, that means a lot. I put a tonne of work into the visuals for lore videos, some of the 10 - 20 second shots often take anywhere between 5 and 20 minutes to set up, and loads of stuff off-camera that you can't see, but augments the scene further. There's plenty more to come!

    Imagine... just for a moment... that Funcom plans to bring down the walls of the Exiled Lands, to unveil the whereabouts in the world, connecting the Exiled Lands to the Isle of Siptah. Then, in a surprise development, announce that the entire lands of Age of Conan have been redone (& slightly reimagined) and also made accessible in the Exiles engine. Classes are still not something that exists and sorcery is still imagined and implemented in the Exiles style, but suddenly, Conan Exiles becomes the MMO that Age of Conan almost was! That would be grand! :)

  • @Kaziklu

    Some of this is directly contradicted by the Archivist and what we know of Thoth-Amon.
    The Archivist specifically states that he came to the city and was able to disable traps, wards, and knew what he needed to take the Ring. He came with purpose. There was no stumbling.
    Thoth studied and plotted. When he lost the Black Ring of Set he was all but powerless and likely learned of the Serpent Ring of Set through studying Acheron lore given that that nation would have been founded by survivors of the up rising in what is now the Exiled Lands.
    Thoth likely heard about a "Unnamed City" from Relic Hunters and Adventures travelling through Stygia. He then would have done his research realized what they had found and worked on locating the information he needed to find the ring and retrieve it. He likely sent Relic Hunters into the City himself to verify the location and get him proof that the Unnamed City is the City where the Ring was kept.
    When Thoth arrives the Archivist account was of a man on a mission. It was likely after that, talking and reading that he realized that the bracelets could be harnessed still and could give him great riches not to mention a place to disappear people to for a profit.
    That is my only real objection here.
    Though I should say Thoth is also an advisor to Cestepus and was corrupting his mind so getting the deal set up would have been fairly trivial. I am really surprised Ibis wasn't an option in the game given that Thoth was originally a Ibis acolyte and priest and many of his more dangerous rivals were outlawed Ibis Priests.

    they must be in eastern stygia close to the flame mountains or whatever. that would explain why that girl you save from the mask possession say that she might travel to the north with Conan to Shem. But still that makes little sense why there is an ocean with an extinct Lemurian civilization to the East that you can reach by row boat.

    I understand from a game play perspective that the player has boundaries to the world. Why would anybody make a situation where their enemies can not leave. Also, the war happened long ago, people breed, and babies don't get born with bracelets. Only one generation of people could possibly be controlled by the bracelets.

    • @Eradicati0nn
      @Eradicati0nn  Рік тому +5

      I can see the logic behind using TEL as a prison, it's almost completely inescapable under guarantee of magic.
      There are a couple of plot holes but I think there's a way to close them. Firstly, the Keystone lets you out, but it's a one-time-use item. My theory is that only one person can ever use the keystone, seeing as it destroys otherwise irretrivable artifacts, hence why Mek etc never mention it or attempt to craft it.
      The second is the babies question. I personally think the bracelets might restrict or completely stop conception, thus you couldn't have free children born within The Exiled Lands.
      I'm likely gonna end up diving into these two holes a bit more in a future video, if and when they're relevant

    • @kevinmeyers7821
      @kevinmeyers7821 Рік тому

      @Eradicati0n if the bracelets did prevent breeding, it would be a logical form of control, but I would still want humans to breed to bolster my supply of human slaves if I were a giant king, Klael says their race doesn't reproduce as fast as humans. There wasn't any reason for control before the war, and any rebel human wouldn't permit their babies to get a bracelet once it started. I honestly think there should be more people, free people that lure dipsticks across the ghost fence. 👻

    I kniw its a bit older of a video now but it put into perspective is fun. and for me now age of war fits as well. I missed the first part of it but my uead cannon now is that The Stygian army has now come because the sorcerer heared of Mek-kamosa's ritual (i forgot the spelling sorry) and stopped him from finishing the ritual that would free the prisoners and to take any artifact s tue exiles had gathered (thus why the new purge specifically goes after your treasure).

    I am probably interpreting too much into the lore stuff but I wonder: I'm Funcoms MMORPG Age of Conan we are prisoners of Thoth Amon too, via Acheronian Marks and the lesser Acheronian God simply called "Grim Gray God", he is creating a slave army for his endeavors. At the end of the main game you kill Thoth Amon in his Stronghold together with (king) Conan (gameplay-wise in the T3 raid with many other players). Did his death have any influence on the Exiled Lands? Was the Exiled Lands and the resurrection of the "Grim Gray God" and the creation of the slave army in the main Lands of Hyboria 2 parts of a plan?
    Would be very interesting to know if they made any connection between the two games in any way but I doubt so and it's just me interpreting more than there is.

      @@wintersteale As far as we know, the walls are always active. The Lemurians may have found ways to bypass it, as they were potent sorcerers, but they also may have simply had children and grandchildren that were not bound by the bracelets.

      That is a very good question, I'm honestly not sure of the answer though. We don't have any examples to look at in-game, and assuming they could cauterize the wound properly and avoid infection, they could survive.
      I suspect the reason we don't see that manifesting is because TEL is incredibly dangerous. Not only do you risk infection from a wound like that, but missing a limb is a huge disadvantage. We might be able to find out something from Mek, once he gets a new body, but I suspect it will remain and unconfirmed "what if" for a while

The relevant items and NPC's are still in the admin panel, as far as I know. That being said, I feel like it got cut because it doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Thoth stole the ring, then put it on his henchman that just mindlessly wanders the exiled lands?
      I don't see The Exile (us) as ever really needing to get revenge against Thoth Amon, we were likely imprisoned under orders of one of the many kings that use TEL as a prison. If we do see Thoth, it'll be through Mek's story, most likely
