I agree with most of your ratings. I would give Isle of Sipta a solid 4 though. As while the map itself may be a little lacking, it provides a massive amount of content, and with that, more to explore for players who have spent many hours in the exiled lands. Since it's release has improved greatly. The focus on dungeon exploration and collecting little powerups to boost your abilities is an interesting gameplay mechanic only really hampered by Conan Exiles' fairly basic enemy AI. I do agree a lot of areas feel a little too barren, but that provides a lot of space for players to build and develop. It's quite well suited for Roleplay Servers I think. It's not perfect, but the sheer amount of content it adds is worth the price of entry. The game goes on sale often enough now though that I do agree, catch the stuff on sale, save some money. But don't stick your nose up at the isle of sipta map. It's a nice change of pace to the tired scenery of the exiled lands.
Totally agree. Even for single players the Isle of Siptah map is very interesting, as resources are much easier available and building and exploring therefore is faster in reach. I like the elder vaults andthe shrines, too. It brings new mechanics and a fresh approach to progress at all.
@@RafaGuerraDJ Glad you enjoyed it Rafael! This video is slowly climbing, its definitely intended to get views over time, but I appreciate the comment!
This was super helpful and even though opinions vary about what looks good versus one doesn't I'm glad to have a free look at what everything is so I can decide for myself. So thank you again
There is a funny part when you mentioned Aquilonian DLC to capture Greek style. In Howard's world, Aquilonia was actually supposed to be an equivalent of late Roman empire (probably in the era when christianity became not only tolarated, but also the only allowed religion, therefore the zealous worship of Mitra), while Argoss was more akin to Greek city states (the in-game style probably represents island-based city states, therefore that marine theme). Personally, I loved almosts all DLC (I even give a bigger chance to otherwise cursed Isle of Siptah), but I prefered most the ones with placebles. For me, buildings pieces from Aquilonia, Argoss and Turan are my top one (it can make what I call "Byzantine" or "Sicilian" style - a crossroad between west and east) and than of course Derketo DLC has a plenty of placeblaes (not to mention my favourite inn-keeper outfit, that I love to make, even if it means sacrificing some light armor)
Yeah I can see the Roman influence in Aquilonian, especially if you mix the Argossean roofs in, that really hits the Roman Villa style. Aside from Riddle of Steel I wouldn't really say I dislike any of the DLC's, even the ones I rated average. Some of them aren't every day usage, but they're nice to have, even if they're super extravagant
@@Eradicati0nn Agreed, even though I had some fun and usage for Riddle of Steel DLC. You see, up until Achitects of Argoss came out, the only way to have some artistic form of water well, you had to had knowledge (and some aspiring steps) in rituals of Mitra. Mitra and Set are two gods (asside from Crom, of course) that I have never chosen so far from lore and RP perspective (I even nicnamed them "Despot of Light" and "Despot of Darkness"), and "neutral" decorative water source in form of Pool of Refreshment was quite welcomed. And of course, those Snake Statues (especially the variant with skulls) and Atlantean Throne are my favourite as well. I also had to say I have one issue with the new Stormglass building pieces. While combination of black and yellow/gold colors is my favourite (if I will have coat of arms in future, it would certainly use those two colors), and combining Stormglass with Turanian roof-pieces would make an excelent job, the fact that the only option for windows is a fully enclosed glass wall is a bit uncomfortable for me. Personaly, I love to build in more exotic (from the perspective of guy living in Central Europe) locations, and on Isle of Siptah, Isle of Dawn and Floodlands will probably become my favourite places for settling. However, I have a feeling that with no form of ventilation in home made out of black building material (black color absorbs heat quite a lot), it could turn into oven in such biomes. Honestly, I'm considering implementing some of the Lattice Walls from Riders of Hyborie to act as windows instead, those should let an air in xD

Thanks! I'm gonna end up doing a couple of Small Mods videos, but I think I'll definitely dive into some of the more major mods in their own standalone videos
Came to see witch dlc I wanted the most, and now I have “architect of argos” , “jewel of the west” , and “treasures of turan” in my steam cart thank bro.
me and my friends all play on Playstation, so what we did was each of us bought a different DLC so we could have all the DLCs lol. If there was a particular set of armor someone wanted from a specific DLC, someone in our group could make it for them haha. I got the Jewel of the West DLC, and they're always wanting Black Dragon Armor for our NPC thralls hahaha.
You know, I feel like you should have used round shields instead of swords, if you were going to use "halves" too. The shields would be horizontally wider and would be easier to appreciate them being 1/2 full
There are some ways to get treehouse foundations to work, like what you suggested, but they're rarely ever easier or better than just using regular foundations, and provide some huge stability issues down the line due to the wedges
Good to know which to avoid and which I’d make us of. I really like the look of the arena pack for interior flair and bridges that look like a bridge rather than a roof submerged ☺️
@@SupaVas Arena is one of the best for decorative architecture, especially the bridges. Stormglass and Aquilonian work quite nicely for that same purpose too
Floatsome got some uses for PVP. Early and later. Also if you are in a place where is more wood than stone and want to go for higher tier and smelt bricks, the floatsome uses more wood less stone, so its a decent option for a spedific situation. Also i like use the railing because you see easy behind it but it stops you fall from edges. Its basicly rope on two sticks :D
Glad you found it helpful! All the gear in the DLC's are equivalent to high-level equipment in the base game, same with the building materials. The DLC are basically texture packs, if you think of it like that
Good video, mostly agree with you, personally didn't like much aquilonian (although was excited for it when got it) and argossian didn't really catch my eye, but 2 out of 5 for Siptah? Really? Just Stormglass set and armors make it one of the best in my opinion. Flotsam set and map being nice bonus.
Brilliant video , perfect for what we needed. Actually liked the looks of pretty much every dlc and I think I'll end up picking them up on a sale now :) cheers mate
I bought the japanese dlc and im really happy with it, every armor set is dope, the weapons are amazing(even tho the dmg is awful) and the pet skins are my favourite, damn that hyena skin bro 😭😭, anyways i came here to see wich one to get next and i still dont know lmao, but aye well see
The aquilonian and Argos set are styled after the greek and the Roman empire, I still think they should have put more time into making them stand out from each other give them some real individuality yqno
I can see the arguments for both sides really. I like that they work together but also work separately, though there is definitely things they could have done to make the difference a bit more noticeable for people who enjoy historical architecture
@@Eradicati0nn I thought the difference really shown through in the Armor sets alone. But for any history buffs the styles perfectly capture Greek and Roman architecture in my opinion. Sine Rome borrowed so much of their culture from Greece being so similar only makes sense.
Maybe that’s just a me thing, but I would love to have vaulted ceilings pieces also in the base game, e.g. for t3 building pieces. I have most of the DLC‘s, but I don’t get why they sometimes decided to not include roof pieces or fence foundations🤷🏽♀️ perhaps that’s a bit nitpicky, I really like the DLC‘s overall, but some things I just don’t get
you said it how (treasures in turan dlc) is worst ,, I just buy it, (ONLY THIS) because im an a turanian warrior , ( HUN ) . 2.This is the best dlc for this game.
This sucks because the Debauchery of Derketo would be an easy miss if not for those armor pieces... heavy armor with both agility and strength damage bonus's when in the base game the heavy agility damage pieces are ugly unless you're a Stygian and don't mind the head piece.
Apart from Isle of Siptah, no. Isle of Siptah adds a new map that you can't play unless you have that DLC, but every other DLC is optional. Your friends can also drop you weapons, building pieces etc from any DLC's you don't have
Are items from Isle of Siptah useable in Exiles map? I am new tot he game and want to start on the base game, but I would get the Isle DLC IF it added a lot of things I could craft or use in the base game.
It's currently glitched, but it wasn't glitched at the time of recording. I believe Funcom is aware of it, though I think the issues with invisible buildings took priority
2/5 for siptah? I mean its your list and your perspective; but damn dude lol thats a hot take i think. I dont even play the map, but stormglass alone is a 5/5 haha, and flotsam is honestly pretty useful in a lot of scenarios. But i do agree with the rest of them lol
I'm surprised to disagree with this video so sharply. I think the Arena set, beyond missing so many critical pieces, should also lose points for having the most difficult to place staircases and the worst fitment of piece-to-piece within the same set. And I have a general complaint about all sets with vaulted ceilings: There are no wedge shaped pieces, making them useless for anything but boxes and straight lines. Derketo clearly offers the least value other than Riddle of Steel. It gives us treehouse platforms that are all angles and stage pieces that are all boxes, so they actively work against each other. Riders of Hyboria is arguably the best complementary set, with things no other set offers such as horse-height single tile doors, gates that aren't skyscraper height, and climbable fences. It also provides one of the best cheats with the lattice half-wall, which can be directly replaced with a full-size wall to get around collision detection problems preventing placement of a full-size wall. The white sets mix poorly with anything else, and the style looks out of place in most biomes. At least they are content-rich, and have each other to mix with. Turan I agree can be a bit much in large quantities, but I'm finding ways to dilute it with Stormglass. With Khitan I actually like the reversibility because the wood grains are subtly different, but that's something you only appreciate if it's your main base and you see it up close daily. And I make the most use of its placeables. Yamatai can be pretty but is content poor, doesn't mix well and offers nothing unique. Frontier is mostly ugly but I use its ceiling tiles the most, they mix well with anything and I like the underside design. And Siptah there's just no denying that it's by far the most content for the money, it's not even comparable.
Love the detailed review bit severely dislike the grading as a lot of points seem abitrarily applied. It feels too subjective as you never explained your point awarding system so it put me off. Thanks for the effort though.
I thought I had mentioned in the intro how I structure my scale, but I must be remembering a different video. To contextualize the scores, the "average" DLC with nothing great and nothing terrible would sit at a 2.5/5. I take and give half-points based on negatives and positives
I played this when it released, up to the jungle region being added and I was thinking about returning. I'm not into paying for texture packs but expansions that add content do seem worthwhile. If there's only one DLC that adds new content, has the base map been developed to include more ?
There have been new features added, I'd definitely advise looking at the patch notes and seeing what major features have been adopted. Some of the DLC's are nice, but at the core they are just Tier 3 reskins. Isle of Siptah plays quite differently to the Exiled Lands, and seems a bit more challenging, so that might be more your thing
@@Eradicati0nn I decided to get Isle of Siptah after writing this post, the game's downloading atm. It wasn't too expensive and I'm definitely keen to give the it another go :) Any advice on religion if I have to create a new character? The first god I chose gave me health food the last time I played.
@@Eradicati0nn Okay, thanks. Hopefully travel on the new map is pretty easy and now there's mounts, access to gods shouldn't be too difficult. BTW. I do enjoy building and own many games that focus on building and crafting. I tend to always build beneficially though, so aesthetics aren't ever important. I've gaming for over 4 decades (on many platforms) and survival building still feels pretty fresh and interesting. I actually/embarrassingly got the platinum on both Dragon Quest Builders games recently lol.
So you've got Tier 1, the weakest material which is Sandstone and Flotsam. Tier 2 is a bit stronger, that's Stonebrick and Insulated Wood, and Tier 3 is the strongest and most viable for PvE and Pvp, and in the base game its Black Ice. All of the DLC building pieces are reskins of Black Ice, so every DLC includes Tier 3 building sets.
@@Eradicati0nn Ty pal I knew the normal tiers just not the dlc stuff, I saw a building that was full of spikes is that the reinforced stone? Great video btw after watching it I bought the dlc with the assassins armour and arena materials wouldn't of got it if hadn't watched this. Bit miffed the iron weapons are stronger than the bloodletter tho lol one more thing if I don't build more than the few foundations and workstations I have will my purge meter still fill I've just been living at the top of one of those flame towers farming stuff for a spikey building. Thanks
All things considered, probably a 3.5/5. It's a bit different from TEL, and though not as popular, it's worth it if you're looking for a bit of a different experience, plus you get Stormglass and Flotsam too
Little late after the video came out, but i still got the question how can u let your thrall guards stand with their weapons out, like shown in the jewel of the west part of the video?
all i have to ask is, raise your voice some. my conan music was overwhelming your voice and had to turn everything down. otherwise thank you for the vid!
Don't ever buy kthitan, the first and bad Design. Very few options to costomoze. They should and for Free revamp these old dlcs and put more contend on them
Fun fact. Khitan ceiling and walls goes with LITERALLY EVERYTHING lol. While i can understand the desire for a more "unique" and perhaps aesthetically standout addition, that "simplicity" does lend itself to being usable with a LOT more builds. All that said, as i build more and more, its becoming more and more evident that these dlc pieces were designed to be artifiically stacked to not give "everything" as it lends itself to buying multiple dlcs (i.e. khitan walls + arena foundations + stable lattice pieces is pretty fantastic lol).... that said i have always purchased these on sale, and im frankly glad to spend 5$ for a bunch of new buildables.
@@Eradicati0nn ok thanks. ill get it in the future. but on playstation its a 25% sale going on all the other dlc's so if you have to suggest 1 or 2 dlcs that could possibly fit in, what would it be? if it helps i plan on building in the desert
I bought both season passes, but I'm a content creator so it'd be silly for me not to. I liked the Year 1 and Year 2 season pass, but in terms of what you get for the price, most would expect more
Personally I would have placed both The Riddle of Steel and Isle of Siptah higher by half a point. Other than that I very much agree with your ratings. :)
Riddle of Steel is a bit sour for me given the price and the fact it wasn't included in the Y2 season pass, which itself was £40. However, some of the none-statue placeables are fairly nice. Siptah's rating is mainly for the super slow progress, but I'm glad you agree with the rest & enjoyed the video!
Arena set is also my favorite. The tiles can be paired with any other tile set The Riders of Hyboria Potain Knight set just doesnt fit well into any Biome theme. Allthough its cool set, it would have needed its own map/ biome
How presumptuous of you to assume that I'll be buying the DLC! I pirated the game with all the DLC and just wanted to see which armours I'll be using and what kind of character I'll RP as... It's all got to fit. Hmm, I do quite like the Aquilonian heavy armour. But they don't really work for my degenerate playthroughs, unlike Stygians. Though I'm no lore nerd. PS. I own the game on Steam but it's a stuttery POS and the update is trash, especially the cash shop. My pirated copy is miles better. No Chinese spyware either. Thanks for the assistance!
This review was made when Isle of Siptah was still in beta as a PC exclusive, however you can of course buy it now, as its been released to consoles too
So the game is trash I have to pay more money to build tree platforms I don't even want to watch the rest of this video I'm gonna get my money for this game

I agree with most of your ratings. I would give Isle of Sipta a solid 4 though. As while the map itself may be a little lacking, it provides a massive amount of content, and with that, more to explore for players who have spent many hours in the exiled lands. Since it's release has improved greatly. The focus on dungeon exploration and collecting little powerups to boost your abilities is an interesting gameplay mechanic only really hampered by Conan Exiles' fairly basic enemy AI. I do agree a lot of areas feel a little too barren, but that provides a lot of space for players to build and develop. It's quite well suited for Roleplay Servers I think. It's not perfect, but the sheer amount of content it adds is worth the price of entry. The game goes on sale often enough now though that I do agree, catch the stuff on sale, save some money. But don't stick your nose up at the isle of sipta map. It's a nice change of pace to the tired scenery of the exiled lands.
Totally agree. Even for single players the Isle of Siptah map is very interesting, as resources are much easier available and building and exploring therefore is faster in reach. I like the elder vaults andthe shrines, too. It brings new mechanics and a fresh approach to progress at all.
Yea it doesn’t make sense to give the only dlc that provides actual content a lower rating

This was the greatest video of Conan Exiles I've watched ever since I started playing.
Great info for a new player. Have you thought of doing a video on some of the major Mods?
Thanks! I'm gonna end up doing a couple of Small Mods videos, but I think I'll definitely dive into some of the more major mods in their own standalone videos

You know, I feel like you should have used round shields instead of swords, if you were going to use "halves" too. The shields would be horizontally wider and would be easier to appreciate them being 1/2 full
What's the post of using a 5 point scale if nothing even hits 4?
Circle the tree with the tree foundation then build off that it works as supports without touching the ground.
There are some ways to get treehouse foundations to work, like what you suggested, but they're rarely ever easier or better than just using regular foundations, and provide some huge stability issues down the line due to the wedges
Top notch video wether one agrees w/ the ranking or not 👏🏼

@@Eradicati0nn Oooh... Good to know! Thank you
The 2 DLC's I chose were your 2 & 2.5 rating. Guess I'm only focused on theme and not the whole picture.
Thanks for the video! I have been wanting to buy Conan Exiles and was wondering which DLC would be worth picking up!
Good video, mostly agree with you, personally didn't like much aquilonian (although was excited for it when got it) and argossian didn't really catch my eye, but 2 out of 5 for Siptah? Really? Just Stormglass set and armors make it one of the best in my opinion. Flotsam set and map being nice bonus.
The intro of this was so good I had to drop a like, and I don't typically bother doing that lol
Brilliant video , perfect for what we needed. Actually liked the looks of pretty much every dlc and I think I'll end up picking them up on a sale now :) cheers mate
Glad you enjoyed it! The DLC's are pretty decent, even the ones I marked a little lower due to their lack of flexibility
You have such a calming voice my guy
Your rating is almost an opposite to Steam user's rating :)
thank you so much. Very VERY helpful. I want them all.
I bought the japanese dlc and im really happy with it, every armor set is dope, the weapons are amazing(even tho the dmg is awful) and the pet skins are my favourite, damn that hyena skin bro 😭😭, anyways i came here to see wich one to get next and i still dont know lmao, but aye well see
Awesome. Very helpful and informative. Thank you. Look forward to seeing more of your content
So, except for the isle of siptah, are all these just building sets and armors?
For a moment I was wondering what in Crom's name you were talking about - Then I realised the video was 2 years old . . . .Nice guide though
Yeah this is an old one now 😂 Still relevant for the traditional DLC packs though I guess
Another point that still pisses me off: You can't access most of Isle of Siptah's content in the exiled map! Even in 2023 the Siptah map feels barren.
This video really helped me alot 🤗 thank u.!

Yeah saddles are good would be better if you could dye it
Dyeing the saddles would be a nice QOL addition, dyeing armour is one of the best character customization options
In most servers you can dye it, with mods
@@BloodMoonVA yeah on PC maybe not ps4
When you get a DLC, does it just offer you options personally or does it also "re-skin" standard content of the game (areas, enemies..)?
This sucks because the Debauchery of Derketo would be an easy miss if not for those armor pieces... heavy armor with both agility and strength damage bonus's when in the base game the heavy agility damage pieces are ugly unless you're a Stygian and don't mind the head piece.
so do you need certain dlcs to play with friends for example?
Apart from Isle of Siptah, no. Isle of Siptah adds a new map that you can't play unless you have that DLC, but every other DLC is optional. Your friends can also drop you weapons, building pieces etc from any DLC's you don't have
@@Eradicati0nn thankyou
I bought the dlcs but how do I get those riders of hyboria saddles? I don’t see them in my saddler’s bench
Are items from Isle of Siptah useable in Exiles map? I am new tot he game and want to start on the base game, but I would get the Isle DLC IF it added a lot of things I could craft or use in the base game.
The building sets, armors and saddles are all craftable in the base game map as if they were standard cosmetic DLCs.
@@maninredhelm Thank you so much!
How about a video on ranking the relgions? Best to worst vice versa...
Lmk what you think?
I like that idea, I'd have to do a lot of research but I'll see what I can do!
If you bought all of them how to you get to all these places? Is each DLC a separate game?
How did you get the warlord armor to look normal in yamatai? is it just lighting and angling or is there a fix I cant find?
It's currently glitched, but it wasn't glitched at the time of recording. I believe Funcom is aware of it, though I think the issues with invisible buildings took priority
I love the video and I love your descriptions but our opinions and rating differ greatly. thanks
Everyone's bound to have different opinions on the DLC's, I'm still happy to hear you enjoyed the video :)
2/5 for siptah? I mean its your list and your perspective; but damn dude lol thats a hot take i think. I dont even play the map, but stormglass alone is a 5/5 haha, and flotsam is honestly pretty useful in a lot of scenarios. But i do agree with the rest of them lol

Turan I agree can be a bit much in large quantities, but I'm finding ways to dilute it with Stormglass. With Khitan I actually like the reversibility because the wood grains are subtly different, but that's something you only appreciate if it's your main base and you see it up close daily. And I make the most use of its placeables. Yamatai can be pretty but is content poor, doesn't mix well and offers nothing unique. Frontier is mostly ugly but I use its ceiling tiles the most, they mix well with anything and I like the underside design. And Siptah there's just no denying that it's by far the most content for the money, it's not even comparable.
Love the detailed review bit severely dislike the grading as a lot of points seem abitrarily applied. It feels too subjective as you never explained your point awarding system so it put me off. Thanks for the effort though.
I thought I had mentioned in the intro how I structure my scale, but I must be remembering a different video. To contextualize the scores, the "average" DLC with nothing great and nothing terrible would sit at a 2.5/5. I take and give half-points based on negatives and positives
just buy the Conan Exiles: Complete Edition as online key then u get all DLCs+Game for around 35-40€ and u save like 100€
thank me later
One of the best reviews I've ever seen. I keep coming back for reference.
I played this when it released, up to the jungle region being added and I was thinking about returning.
I'm not into paying for texture packs but expansions that add content do seem worthwhile.
If there's only one DLC that adds new content, has the base map been developed to include more ?
There have been new features added, I'd definitely advise looking at the patch notes and seeing what major features have been adopted. Some of the DLC's are nice, but at the core they are just Tier 3 reskins.
Isle of Siptah plays quite differently to the Exiled Lands, and seems a bit more challenging, so that might be more your thing
@@Eradicati0nn I decided to get Isle of Siptah after writing this post, the game's downloading atm. It wasn't too expensive and I'm definitely keen to give the it another go :)
Any advice on religion if I have to create a new character? The first god I chose gave me health food the last time I played.
*will be playing solo so not using god for attack capabilities.
@@ZombieATAT I have no idea, I pretty much only build 😂 Maybe look for a god that can offer you a utility, like arrows, buffs, something like that
@@Eradicati0nn Okay, thanks. Hopefully travel on the new map is pretty easy and now there's mounts, access to gods shouldn't be too difficult.
BTW. I do enjoy building and own many games that focus on building and crafting. I tend to always build beneficially though, so aesthetics aren't ever important.
I've gaming for over 4 decades (on many platforms) and survival building still feels pretty fresh and interesting. I actually/embarrassingly got the platinum on both Dragon Quest Builders games recently lol.
What tier are all these building materials I've just started playing and see there's 3 tiers
So you've got Tier 1, the weakest material which is Sandstone and Flotsam. Tier 2 is a bit stronger, that's Stonebrick and Insulated Wood, and Tier 3 is the strongest and most viable for PvE and Pvp, and in the base game its Black Ice. All of the DLC building pieces are reskins of Black Ice, so every DLC includes Tier 3 building sets.
@@Eradicati0nn Ty pal I knew the normal tiers just not the dlc stuff, I saw a building that was full of spikes is that the reinforced stone? Great video btw after watching it I bought the dlc with the assassins armour and arena materials wouldn't of got it if hadn't watched this. Bit miffed the iron weapons are stronger than the bloodletter tho lol one more thing if I don't build more than the few foundations and workstations I have will my purge meter still fill I've just been living at the top of one of those flame towers farming stuff for a spikey building. Thanks
Do u make a video on people of the dragon DLC also?
I did! This video was made before that DLC came out, but I do have a stand-alone review of that DLC
Thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hey how would rate Isle of Siptah today? I want to take advantage that Steam is on sale and buy some DLCs
All things considered, probably a 3.5/5. It's a bit different from TEL, and though not as popular, it's worth it if you're looking for a bit of a different experience, plus you get Stormglass and Flotsam too
@@Eradicati0nn Thanks man!
@@Eradicati0nn What TEL stand for?
@@FrancescoSalamonee The Exiled Lands :)
Little late after the video came out, but i still got the question how can u let your thrall guards stand with their weapons out, like shown in the jewel of the west part of the video?
Its from the Pippi mod, the thralls are technically Thespians, which are peaceable configurable building pieces that don't fight etc
@@Eradicati0nn Ah got it. Thanks for the response
all i have to ask is, raise your voice some. my conan music was overwhelming your voice and had to turn everything down. otherwise thank you for the vid!
Thanks Marc! I'm still trying to perfect the audio mix in each video so I appreciate the input!
@@Eradicati0nn np man! im glad you did a video like this so now i know which DLCs to get when a sale drops!
None of the DLCs are worth buying other than siptah because you get a new map and not just cosmetics
Don't ever buy kthitan, the first and bad Design. Very few options to costomoze. They should and for Free revamp these old dlcs and put more contend on them
Fun fact. Khitan ceiling and walls goes with LITERALLY EVERYTHING lol. While i can understand the desire for a more "unique" and perhaps aesthetically standout addition, that "simplicity" does lend itself to being usable with a LOT more builds. All that said, as i build more and more, its becoming more and more evident that these dlc pieces were designed to be artifiically stacked to not give "everything" as it lends itself to buying multiple dlcs (i.e. khitan walls + arena foundations + stable lattice pieces is pretty fantastic lol).... that said i have always purchased these on sale, and im frankly glad to spend 5$ for a bunch of new buildables.
I just bought all of it...I paid with my torrent money :D
Hello fellow people from 2021, I highly suggest nemedian floors :P j/k lol
i only have the turan dlc, which other dlc do you think goes well with it?
Turan is a very inflexible DLC, but I'd honestly say Stormglass is the best fit, from the Isle of Siptah DLC
@@Eradicati0nn ok thanks. ill get it in the future. but on playstation its a 25% sale going on all the other dlc's so if you have to suggest 1 or 2 dlcs that could possibly fit in, what would it be? if it helps i plan on building in the desert
@@iiii-i8322 Aquilonian & Argossean are always a nice combination. Nemedian and Yamatai could work nicely too :)
there is a builing piece that is a wall 2 high and is equal to a foundation in health
So none of them are even a 4 out of 5?
.... literally the very 1st one, Blood and Sand @3:10 was 4/5
what about the dragon people dlc? i ve bought it recently and im super happy with it
This video was made before People of the Dragon released. I do have a review of PotD, I think I gave it quite a good review
@@Eradicati0nn oh i ll check it out then! ty 😊
Is there a reason nobody plays as a male protagonist?
I have no idea 😂 I play as a male character, but then again I just build
I played as a female character bc i thought the customization was a bit better
Big booba that’s why
@@huntersmith8952 😂😂
I think it’s a cross dressing issue… lol… female players don’t play as male characters either.
isle of sipta and year 2 dlc are the only proper ones
Most of the stuff you don't like most people would
I pity my friends who bought season passes
I bought both season passes, but I'm a content creator so it'd be silly for me not to. I liked the Year 1 and Year 2 season pass, but in terms of what you get for the price, most would expect more
Treasures of Turan looks the best
I take that back stormglas looks the best
lol with so many decimal ratings, would have been easier to rate the sets out of 10.
All of them. Discussion over.
Personally I would have placed both The Riddle of Steel and Isle of Siptah higher by half a point. Other than that I very much agree with your ratings. :)
Riddle of Steel is a bit sour for me given the price and the fact it wasn't included in the Y2 season pass, which itself was £40. However, some of the none-statue placeables are fairly nice. Siptah's rating is mainly for the super slow progress, but I'm glad you agree with the rest & enjoyed the video!
Arena set is also my favorite.
The tiles can be paired with any other tile set
The Riders of Hyboria Potain Knight set just doesnt fit well into any Biome theme. Allthough its cool set, it would have needed its own map/ biome
Argossian is Greek, Aquilonian is Roman.
That's generally true, though the archways included in the Argossean style are a typically Roman feature, the greek didn't really use them
thank you fitgirl
How presumptuous of you to assume that I'll be buying the DLC! I pirated the game with all the DLC and just wanted to see which armours I'll be using and what kind of character I'll RP as... It's all got to fit. Hmm, I do quite like the Aquilonian heavy armour. But they don't really work for my degenerate playthroughs, unlike Stygians. Though I'm no lore nerd. PS. I own the game on Steam but it's a stuttery POS and the update is trash, especially the cash shop. My pirated copy is miles better. No Chinese spyware either. Thanks for the assistance!
Lmao what? "You cant buy it, so I rate it 2 out 5" thought this was a list for wether to buy it or not lol
This review was made when Isle of Siptah was still in beta as a PC exclusive, however you can of course buy it now, as its been released to consoles too
Great comparison but your voice sounds really boring like the security advice in a plane, sorry. Hard to watch to the end
GsD.........lol
So the game is trash I have to pay more money to build tree platforms I don't even want to watch the rest of this video I'm gonna get my money for this game
Great input
You can build on trees without the round tree foundations though
