When it comes to Conan Exiles on Windows, I’d recommend choosing performance over graphics unless you’re rocking a serious high-end GPU and can actually take advantage of it. On medium to lower end cards, I’ve found that a mix of settings at High, with lower settings for Shadows, View Distance, and (perhaps most noteworthy) Foliage at Medium is the best way to keep things stable in dense spaces. This is of course a problem I’ve encountered many times before trying to get other “hard” games to run on my older equipment. Reading the extremely technical description of a game about a kid with an overpowered mecha and how he has to constantly maintain and repair it to ensure it continues to function and be overpowered in ‘My Mecha Is A Tad Overpowered’ really brought back some bad memories.

Casual players just looking to experience the Conan Exiles fun will find that finding a good performance / visual balance on a mid-tier PC is half the fun. I’d recommend lowering the shadow / effect quality to the ‘Low’ setting and then seeing how that runs with things like full LOD on all objects etc. and then lowering the ‘View Distance’ to really cut down on load while exploring.

If you have better hardware, just crank up the textures and the lights. Bringing these to ‘High’ really brings out the brutal beauty of the world of Conan Exiles and it’s truly mesmerizing. Beautiful landscapes made by all the brutal creatures and fights in the world of Conan Exiles await you. Just try it out and find your balance for the game and your computer.

Tweaking graphics settings for the gaming title ‘Conan Exiles’ on a Windows-based gaming computer can be quite involved depending on whether the end goal is artistic value or performance. Personal experience with this extremely immersive and exquisite game for exploring huge open world landscapes has found me periodically revising the settings in order to better optimize for my purposes. First you should set your Resolution to the native resolution of your screen; it renders the sharpest graphics. Next, you increase the Texture Quality to high. The external environments in Exiles are made to a very high standard and with the Textures set to high the environments and Characters look even more stunning as you explore the many landscapes of the Exiled Lands.

Also consider enabling ‘Anti-Aliasing’ (it can look terrible if set too high). Anti-Aliasing smooths out the rough edges that so often define the look of open-world games, and I’ve found that by enabling it slightly it really makes a difference. As for Shadows and Foliage, I find that High settings make for a very beautiful environment but negatively affects frame rate. Thus I generally set ‘Shadow Quality’ to medium or high when playing solo, but drop it down when engaging in any kind of intense combat with other players.

Finally, to see buildings and other features further away in the horizon, make sure to set the ‘Draw Distance’ to a higher number. As always, finding the right combination of settings to make the game both look great and run smoothly can be a challenge. But in the end, it is all worth it for the chance to dive into the savage world of Conan Exiles.

I've noticed that the graphics settings for 'Conan Exiles' can be pretty overwhelming, especially for people like myself who like to play a lot of survival games and want smooth gaming. For 'Conan Exiles', I've found that by setting most of the graphics to medium, it's a good compromise between trying to get good graphics and trying to get good performance from an somewhat aged machine.

I’ve opted to switch off the “Depth of Field” option for immersion reasons, I don’t want to have to worry about a blurred image of players or creatures in the distance. I have kept “Post-Processing Quality” low though, it has minimal impact on the game and still looks great. The impact of changes to image quality to FPS is huge, especially during intense battles. I suggest you keep an eye on your FPS while experimenting with settings. Sometimes, lowering the “FOV” can even increase performance in certain situations. As ever, the joy of building and exploring a vast desert island awaits, so go forth and play!

For large clan raids and events where dozens of players are on screen (as in the screenshot above), all bets are off. For such occasions I have a separate ‘raid profile’ with everything on Low, except for the players’ names and health bars, in order to get as many frames as possible and as little to no visual distraction as possible.

Later, after the event, I switch back to my regular profile which is meant for in-game action and exploration rather than mass combat events. For raid events dozens of players are usually on screen and information clarity is far more important than visual aesthetics. Such a setup is a travesty to look at but it renders well enough and runs smoothly at low settings.

What are the must-have DLCs for Conan Exiles players?

9 Answers2025-09-23
As a veteran who playedthrough Early Access, the DLCs for Tribal Wars 2 are the main reason I can still have fun playing the game today after all these years, each DLC representing a different era of Tribal Wars. So, for example, when the Jewel of the West DLC was released, everyone was building Greco-Roman cities and, in the end, it was really a lot of fun. Later, when the Savage Frontier DLC was released, the servers were suddenly covered in log cabins. These community-wide trends of building in a certain style for a while are really fun and part of the value of Tribal Wars. Therefore, the most important pack for you to buy is the one that your server is currently most interested in, so that you can join in on current community projects and understand the special architectural style that is currently in vogue.

What are the best settings for Art of Rally?

12 Answers2026-06-29
Just spent hours tweaking 'Art of Rally' settings to nail that perfect balance between arcade fun and sim-like precision. For handling, I recommend starting with 'Assisted' if you're new—it keeps the car stable but still lets you slide gracefully. Crank the camera FOV up to 75-80 for a wider view of those gorgeous landscapes. Turn off the HUD except for speed; the minimalist vibe matches the game's aesthetic so well. For audio, lower the music slightly and boost engine sounds—the purr of vintage rally cars is half the charm. Graphics-wise, max out motion blur but keep shadows at medium unless you have a beastly PC. Oh, and don’t forget to bind handbrake to a separate key; drifting around hairpins feels infinitely smoother that way.

Where can I read wings of fire graphic novels set for free online?

6 Answers2025-07-17
I’ve been a huge fan of the 'Wings of Fire' series for years, and the graphic novels are a fantastic adaptation. If you’re looking to read them for free online, your best bet is checking out your local library’s digital services. Many libraries offer apps like Libby or Hoopla where you can borrow the graphic novels legally without spending a dime. I’ve used Libby myself, and it’s super convenient—just need a library card. Some platforms like Webtoon or Tapas might have fan-made content inspired by the series, but for the official graphic novels, sticking to library services is the way to go. Avoid sketchy sites offering free downloads; they’re often illegal and low quality.

What are the best Arthur Conan Doyle books to read first?

4 Answers2025-11-18
A really good introduction to the great Detective Stories of Arthur Conan Doyle would be to start with ‘The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes’. The stories are all fairly short and the samplers together present a wonderful cross-section of many of Holmes’s greatest and most famous cases. The stories introduce readers to the great detective and to his ingenious methods – the remarkable powers of observation and the cool and logical powers of his great brain, which enable him to solve the most complex of cases and unravel the most intricate of puzzles. Other works by Doyle include The Sign of the Four, an intriguing combination of adventure, and a complex plot full of twisting turns which make for a highly entertaining read. While the reader is pondering the plot, he or she is having fun at the same time. I hope you get to read these and can see why Doyle has had such an influence on the detective genre.

Best character builds for Curse of Strahd?

5 Answers2026-07-06
I ran a Reborn Lineage Blood Hunter. They were a great gothic edgelord. I ran them with Order of the Ghostslayer, so all hits dealt radiant damage. The Rite of the Dawn feature turned my sword into a beacon of sunlight, which is kind of awful for Strahd. Also, the Reborn’s abilities to avoid dying and then come back to life saved me from being charmed by Strahd not once, but twice. Oh, and don’t play a Reborn in your campaign, because your party will hate hearing your tragic backstory monologues.

Which kindle is the best for manga and graphic novels?

7 Answers2025-07-14
I’ve been reading manga and graphic novels on Kindle for years, and the best choice for me has always been the Kindle Paperwhite. The 6.8-inch display with 300 ppi makes the artwork crisp and vibrant, and the adjustable warm light is a lifesaver for late-night reading sessions. The waterproof feature is a bonus since I love reading in the bath. Storage-wise, the 32GB version is perfect because manga files can be huge, especially if you collect entire series. The lack of color isn’t an issue for most manga, but if you read a lot of full-color graphic novels, you might feel the limitation. Still, the seamless integration with Amazon’s store and the ability to sideload files via USB or email make it my top pick.

What are the best applied energistics 2 addons?

8 Answers2025-05-27
A lot of the AE2 specific concepts are very brilliant, the channel system, P2P tunneling, subnetwork management. Most addons for AE2 are wireless terminals or tons of storage, which lets users build around the system instead of learning about how it works. The best ‘addon’ for new AE2 users is a decent series of tutorials for vanilla AE2, that way when they finally do build a decent system for themselves they can add in all of the quality-of-life updates to make building easier and to better appreciate what they have built.

What role does magic play in the barbarian Conan universe?

8 Answers2025-09-25
One can imagine a simple witch with very basic hypnotic powers in one story, and in the next a secret cult attempting to bring back a planet-eating horror of unfathomable size. It’s never sure just what kind of magical problem Conan will be facing in any given tale. The looseness of the rules is a hallmark of the pulp storytelling style in which Howard wrote, allowing him to focus on atmosphere and action above and beyond rigorously-consistent internal logic. Magic in his world serves but one purpose: to facilitate whatever single, idiosyncratic fantastic element is needed to drive the current story to its conclusion. It is a tool, not an end in itself. The possibilities are limitless.

What’s the best eReader for viewing graphic novels?

9 Answers2026-07-28
Against my better judgment, I’m going to argue that the best eReader is the one you’ll actually use consistently. I chased the perfect setup for years: big iPad, Boox eReader, Kindle Oasis. But in reality, I spent way too much time organizing files and comparing screens instead of actually reading. It wasn’t until I started using my 8-inch Samsung tablet that I finally started reading comics at the frequency and quality I had always sought during my years of searching for the perfect device. There’s a fine line between seeking the perfect reading experience and being so focused on the hobby of reading with the perfect tool that you actually read less. I’m saying a mid-range tablet from the last 2-3 years, equipped with a nice case and reading app of your choice will give you a more than fantastic reading experience. Very good is good enough.
