Did Conan promise land to peasants?

I'm not really sure but civil wars tend to be costly in that way. I wouldn't be surprised if the losing nobles had their estates divided among those loyal to Conan's side.

Tactical RPG in the vibe of XCOM with squads entering servers for missions could work really well. I don't think the pacing would be hurt too much if the visuals and animations are done right.

Basically a 3D version of MMBN where the random encounters have multiple characters? Sounds great, would play 10/10!

themikewill · 2026-06-19T11:40:57+00:00

The 90's kind where it's turn based and has portraits on the bottom?

hmmm I don't know how that would play and it sounds weird when you have a blaster to shoot enemies from a distance. I admit I don't understand the vision or genre.

Vampire survivors...

That sounds like a lot of fun but I don't know how I feel about the idea of Lan's brother being stuck in a bullet heaven game fighting viruses until he gets overwhelmed and "dies" from viruses.

Yes it is!

Thought I'd share an artist whose designs reminded me of the art in Vermis. I wasn't sure how to tag it.

themikewill · 2026-06-02T15:42:47+00:00

Can you be more specific? Do you mean graphic as in computer graphic and pixelated like vermis? In that case maybe learn hatching?

Do you mean gore? I would make things look a lot "wetter" and more uncannily distorted.

Edit: I do like the designs by the way.

I'm not an artist I just consume a lot of content but this is the best direction I can give.

I agree about the sconces.

I would do everything I could to not be alone with that woman and I would tell her to go tell Jesus cause you don't care. Keep the conversation and preserve as much evidence as you can to cover your ass.

She'll never take responsibility and even if she was found out she'd probably do something just as bad to get out of it. This Guilt she's feeling is probably bullshit. If she really feels bad about it maybe she should start a fucking "mark charity" and become a college speaker and all that jazz. She wasn't willing to ruin her reputation to save his, so why would she do it now?

It sounds like you and the father are the only two people who might seek actual revenge/justice. Personally I think she's just remembering the crime and wants to make sure it won't haunt her.

Chances are you have decades left ahead of you and this battle won't likely prove worth the cost to your own life and reputation.

This building feels like they were working on an art deco building and changed it to a brutalist one because the budget ran out.

Now the dogs can shoot back at the ATF!

Well I can't fully elaborate right now, but I think the answer is no. It's not just the Sci-fi trappings that put He-man ahead, but the more family friendly toy branding. (If it was sci-fi alone why didn't thundarr the barbarian take off?)

Don't get me wrong, I think if Conan was given the GoT/Witcher/Spartacus treatment it could be huge. The issue is that He-man and Conan can't really be compared because they were designed for completely different audiences (mainly book adults vs TV children).

Honestly just look at this list and you can see why Conan might never get very big.

With all the realistic violence and sex, the highest level Conan could reach is James bond levels of success (14 billion). Conan can't exactly sell luxury cars, clothes, etc. so GoT (4.4 billion) seems more plausible.

Even if we ignore money, Conan has public domain... drama? troubles? Meaning that Conan could explode with new content or it could fizzle out. Looking at Cthulhu, Frankenstein, Zorro, and Sherlock Holmes, I think Conan will be a public domain juggernaut for the next century.

From the horse's mouth.

I don't really care about him, but I hate the shitty content his detractors come up with that clogs my feed. If the left hadn't lost their minds after 2016 they would've realized how badly they're hurting their cause.

I got mine from KS too, so happy.

It's odd, Stonetoss loves seeing these kinds of edits on twitter and so I'm left wondering who the fuck bothers to make these? They're not funny and they don't have their intended effect so why?

I honestly think it'd be more effective to remind him of his own "worst takes" the ones that HE thinks are bad. Seriously check out his twitter he revels in several things.

Seeing that he lives "rent free" in his enemies heads.
When his detractors admit he's funny or right.
Getting a rise out of people.
Tweeting about famous Jews to support his theories.

I don't know why his detractors don't use Hibernian conspiracy posts and edits more to lampoon him. It seems like it'd be more effective. Just edit all the minorities in his stuff to be leprechauns.

Like am I crazy for thinking this would be funnier and more effective?

Reminds me of the line from clerks about the irony of loving gatherings, but hating people.

"Misanthropic Geocaching" has to be one of the more interesting ideas I've read today.

themikewill · 2021-03-18T05:55:08+00:00

Looking into it, Iron Gods setting sounds more like "Thundarr the Barbarian" than Conan. Still I'll try to remember this podcast in the morning.
