Age of Conan

 I remember reading you played solo up to level 20.  But my question is: is the content soloable after that?  I am, of course speaking outside of being attacked by players looking for easy blood.  I am strictly talking npc content.  Either way I'm playing, but I was just curious.

Can't wait!  

The rumors are (and taken them for what they are worth) that you can solo all the way to 80. I have heard this enough now that I expect it to be accurate.

However I would add that I think for one, it would be slower of course and two, you might miss out on a lot of content by doing so.

I honestly can't speak from experience but just going by what I have heard.

Yes, there is enough solo content outside of the noob zones to level you up to 80 (I have my sources), however if you roll a toon on one of the FFA pvp servers...things might get...troublesome

You mean "Interesting"

Interesting has a certain flair to it, yes...heh heh heh

Most of the PK crowd will not attack you unless the odds are heavily on your disfavour. The true PvPers is another ball game, but these usually don't attack unless they have a reason to do so.

Unfortunantly for solo levelers, the PK crowd usually travel in packs and outnumber the true pvp crowd.  At least in my experience...

thats the price you pay for FFA server...

From what i hear its a solo mmo to 80 so why i should pay a monthly fee till level 80 is beyond me

Just curious. How is playing under prison conditions interessting ? Is your deepest desire to be in sing-sing ? Really no offence ment, but isnt FFA PvP like living in a prison. Together with a crowd of murderers who kill you for whatever you own ?

Are you one of the people that wish to be forced to group in order to do anything in game?

It is a viable way to level to the max. It's not the only way. And the game does not end once you reach the max level either.

Over the years online gaming became more popular and cheaper. And many people, got bored with the games. The quality of the online community went downhill from month to month. Been a hardcore D2 player for a while. It was aboslute doable to group in HC for a while until more and more Kamikaze PKs spawned out of nowhere. I dont know.. do they breed them somewhere ? I mean... rolling a kamikaze PK is the dumbest waste of time ever. I was forced to solo HC if i wanted to survive. At some point it got really boring to play HC solo.

I hopped through some of the real MMORPG's that released everywhere. FFA rulesets where always the home of the breeded kamikaze PKs. Other games shined because PvP was only an extension of roleplaying or the struggle about the rarest resouces. Most of those games  died by bad management or because some guilds wherent guilds but gangs. In and outside of the game. The value of WoW RMT is somewhere between 30 and 100 million dollars. If you want to know who provided the in-game curency to the sellers, then you have found them. Gangs of breeded kamikaze PKs who made a living out  of games. And it legal, cant get busted like when selling drugs.

At some point i met a gnome in EQ2. She was a girl in real life and reached level cap only with fluff. Those who know EQ2 know what i mean. Collections, L&L, languages and that stuff. Hehe, though this girl i saw the light. While the "cool" male players buy plat from the gangs to buy the collections to level up as fast as possible, she did them to level up with an incredible patience. Since that time i turned into a soloer and the light is still shining bright enough to see what online gaming is about nowadays. The worst breeding grounds are FFA PvP servers and raids.

However, you shouldnt care to much. I am an old fart trying to share some XPerience ;) Go play prison or be part of a RMT industry that is bigger then the gaming industry. I dont care, ill just follow the light ;)
