Living settlements will appear in Conan Exiles

In October, the multiplayer survival simulator in the universe of Robert Howard's books will receive the Age of Heroes update. One of its features will be the mechanics of personal settlements, where your hero's servants will be engaged in construction and crafts under the control of AI. But they will also have their own needs - the characters will devote time to them, free from work. The creators of the game from Funcom company shared some nuances of the upcoming patch.

The Age of War add-on introduced the public to a wide range of construction possibilities - soon it will be time to populate these buildings with people, including friends or captured characters captured during adventures. They will be allowed to be attached to any household work, but all their activities will be superimposed effects: if the inhabitant is hungry, he will go to look for a fire with a cauldron, when tired, he will rest by the fire or lie down on the bed, and in the morning he will go to the nearest workshop. But the most interesting thing about their behavior is their reaction to danger. If your base is attacked, some slaves will fight the aggressors, while others will simply run away from danger.

In other words, there will be some very belligerent individuals among the inhabitants. You can take them with you as partners. Finally, the number of interior items with which NPC-slaves can interact will increase. In your settlement you will find them sitting on benches, warming themselves by hearths, sawing or chopping something and even sleeping in your hero's bed while he is performing feats. You can dress them in any attire and give them tools.
