Age of Conan

A little poll

 Also, feel free to post why you voted the way you did, and specify.

  I voted, mostly because I find your poll to be very good in covering most possible options.  You did well to include varying branches of "happy" and "hate".  You even included two for people who haven't played.  I honestly wish more polls around here (those which relate to player opinion) were as well done as this.

Thanks Gishgeron, I tried to give as many options as possible, and I still feel like I might have left something out

I hope the moderators of this forum might want to sticky this, since there are alot of opinion-posts about AoC.

The game had been out long enough for the first serious opinions to form I reckon.

I ended up on "good, but a little disappointed"

i think it's a great game, and what Funcom focused on was the new stuff - the improved graphics, the more hands on combat, the more adventure like quests ( at least in the beginning of the game).

But I feel a bit disappointed that they didn't decide to polish more on the "standard" stuff in the game, - it seems unfinished or below standard.

I'm hoping they will fix these things in the time to come, but they might have benefitted from delaying release till fall this year, or even further if necessary.

However, if AoC may not be the best game ever, I still think it's a step in the right direction, and that is enough for me to continue my subscription. That and the fact that I'm having fun playing it ofc, no point playing a game if it isn't fun.

ill just add that its a game ill try once its free to try and after i upgrade my computer...

That should be an option, but i will not try it till then.

It really pushes MMO's and computer gaming to whole new levels.

The depth of gameplay at 40+ is mind blowing

Initially I was thrilled. Now, at level 62, I'm already wanting to take a break. I didn't even log in yesterday.

For the most part, I'd like to think I played casually. I did play a lot the first weekend but I've only played a max of 4 hours a day during the week.

I'm just bored right now and have no desire to grind out 18 more levels. I'll gladly check when more patches are out.

Unfortunately i used almost all the spots for the poll (can only hold 10 options). Can't edit it though after it's been started unfortunately

So I'm quite the casual I guess. I'm also looking forward to the patch for the lvl 50-60 I think it was... so I don't have to grind more than necessary.

All in all I'm taking my good time to level, and that might be just as well, so that Funcom can work on some polishing before I get much further.

That's the thing. I didn't feel like I was rushing since the game levels faster than most. You could even say I was addicted (but not to the point where I *had* to play the game). I was having honest to goodness fun. Then the quests started to slow... then I just got bored.

Oh well. I got come enjoyment out of it at least. At least Funcom acknowledged that there is a problem for the 50-60 ish levels and it's nice to see them working on it.
