My ideal Conan game would be a CD Projekt one or a Conan game produced by Obsidian Studios. Still, if the end product is faithful to the source material and has decent gameplay, then I'll be a happy Hyborian.

U know,Instead of courting Hollywood or TV shows, properties like Conan, Tarzan, Zorro, and other classic pulp IP's should target videogames instead. They have to be relatively faithful to the source material because it is the USP of the game, and with good gameplay, it will be commercially successful. Shadow of Mordor and its sequel, Conan Exiles, and the Witcher games shows this kind of licensing strategy can work for the benefit of the property.

Great news stubbs, thanks.
