      people overlook it, but Conan Exiles was like that too. you could go around to different NPC tribes, knock them out, kidnap them, bring them back to your base, and then break their spirit.

      after that you could put them to work doing various things. some could be cooks, archers, warriors, etc.

      most of the success to be found in that game involved a large stable of slaves to do shit for you.

        Well, slavery is a huge topic in the Conan stories, it is modeled in a rather slavery heavy time period, hence why the gameplay fits so well with the theme. Characters falling into, escaping or being rescued from slavery was a constant trope of those books.
