So last week I was wandering around mmorpg forums looking for a new game to play. I was getting bored to death of WAR and all the other older mmo's tired me out. I wanted a game that combined great pve but also great pvp as well.  Somehow I stumbled upon all these "Age of Conan is making a comeback!" threads. I thought they were lying at first or just overhyping it, but I was getting desperate for a game so I decided to try it out.

But wow, I am so lucky I did. The quests are really in-depth and enjoyable for an mmorpg(cut scenes?? seriously??), it runs beautifully on my computer with no crashes at all (i bought my comp from dell for $800 2 yrs ago), there is an awesome storyline (one that competes with guild wars as far as mmo's go), and there is awesome pvp to boot. But most of all, it has what all these other crappy ass western mmorpg's for some reason did not incorporate into their system- fun factor in killing a monster! the hits feel and sound great plus at the end u have a chance of doing a fatality (i did not expect this at all). What is more humiliating to another player than cutting off his head when you kill him?? But yeah I am so happy I found this game, I have been playing it non stop for a week. I feel really sad that I wasted several months of my life on WAR (1-2 months should have been sufficient). I was also really excited to find out that it had a really cool combat system where player skill ACTUALLY matters, and you cant just sit their mashing buttons.

But yeah, I loved this game so much i actually got one of my friends to register to play the game a few nights ago and he loves it too.

I do not know what all you veteran players had to deal with in the past with Funcom but so far I'm happy with everything. Really... I love this game lol.

EDIT: Last of all, I would like to thank all the good people in this forum that are promoting this great game and getting new players to join- I would never have found out about this game without your help. Please keep up the good work!

In FunCom's case, they burned enough customers with both thier MMO launches. They came by their bad reputation legitimately.

That's fair enough. But in mine and lots of others opinions, aoc does deserve its good posts too as for me it is an incredible game. Also the level of hate against aoc is totally disproportionate - I have RL friends telling me the game sucks donkey balls and they haven't even played it! haha

It doen't matter if you trust me or not as I didn't post any facts, just my opinions - I just said that "for me it is an incredible game"... or do you mean you don't believe that I like the game? maybe I have been subliminally brainwashed by "failcom"... hehe

No worries Mengkeshi,

People will flame on AoC just cuz it seems to be the cool thing to do - all the while WAR is a way bigger POS and that was considered to be its main rival.  All things considered I think AoC isn't AMAZING but much more interesting/better than a lot of the MMORPG's currently out.  Glad you're enjoying.


Why do I write, create, fantasize, dream and daydream about other worlds? Because I hate what humanity does with this one.

It doesn't matter indeed.

I played WAR as well and had a great guild the first few months and it completely died out in December last year! (from 50+ active users to barely 2+ in just 2 months!!) 

Everyone got bored with WAR. The PVE just became unbearable after rank20. And when you leveled up an ALT you got bored even quicker.

The PVP is boring as hell too. Especially in Tier3 and Tier4. It's one big CC zerg fest. Not to mention the lag and now 5 months later still crashing Fortress zones lol.

Everyone complained about how instanced and zone-fied AoC was.... and look at WAR now... what they going to do to now they cannot fix the lag and crashing? YUP! Instancing the crap out of the game lol.

With the introduction of the Black Guard and Knight of the Blazing Sun as dangling carrot they mananged to keep players hooked for another month... and now they desperately try to get out the Slayer and Choppa as a new carrot.... but they slowly start to run out of carrots.

At least the PVE and PVP in Age of Conan is fun. And that is what counts in the end.

But anyway, happy you enjoy it.  It really is a good game.

Have they made it into an mmo yet or is it still just a glorified multiplayer game?

Yes I totally agree, both WAR and AoC are horrible games.

No. Age of Conan is a good game. WAR is a ok game, for me it got boring very fast.

Wait untill you leave starting zone. Starting zone was really pretty polished and fun, the deeper int the game you get the more you see it's lacking.

btw. Did they finally implemented some kind of working economy?

If you are asking if you can become stinking rich, if thats what you want to go for, then yes. There is a bunch of tradeskill resources there's high demand of. There is also a bunch of craftet stuff you can sell for a good price.
