Age of Conan

I played WAR since release and liked it quite a lot in fact. Had little of all those tech issues some people complain about and RvR was a blast... the first couple of weeks. After that RvR just went away. I don't know what happened ,but that game just can't give me what I want which is massive Multiplay. Even after server transfer I am still stuck in nomansland. So ,then I bought AoC to have a taste on their 48 vs 48 Siege. I have not gotten there yet, but I have had a few days in the game so fare and I must say FC has really done a great job here. I know many people have comments to content later in the game, but hell so fare it has been a long while since I have had so much fun in a game.

If you didn't like the dwindling population in Warhammer, you won't like AoC. AoC is all about hype and marketing, which doesn't take the place of decent gameplay

But if you enjoy poorly made games, with little to no end content, a lousey community, and shoddy customer service, you should have a blast.

*Cough* I might be out of order here, but I belive he said he's digging AoC. Seems like you are a bit late to save him. lol

Yet the guy is still having fun. I would class fun in direct relation to decent gameplay, if it wasn't decent he wouldn't be having fun. But it looks like you enjoy being a part of that lousy community as well.

Let us know how you progress in a 'no holds bar' way OP as you move through :)

I had a blast in AoC until I got to level 21.  The fun difference between Tortage and the "real" game is like night and day.

Been playing AoC since release. It is fun, at the start. combat was new and different , and the classes seemed to all have their place.  It was a fresh take on the standard MMOs out there.  But, it has some major issues.  Graphics are awesome, and from there it all goes downhill.

Everytime you wanna try a new class, you do the same thing, work to get out of tortage.  Once out, you go to the same few spots to level up, doing the same quests over and over again.  After doing this a few times, it just gets old.  It is extremely linear.

I cant knock this game too much, cause i really do like it, ill just come back next year (if its still around) once it has all the bugs worked out.  But anyway, have fun, it is a cool game to play for a few months anyhow..

AoC linear? This must be the statement I agree the least with. I agree with the point of Tortage, but AoC endgame is extremely nonlinear if played the way it is supposed to get played. I would go as fare as there are not a more complex endgame (at least on PvP servers) than in AoC. Reason is the players themselves build the cities and they themselves choose what conflicts to have, what Wars to fight. Besides this you got that whole  murder criminal thing going.

Welcome to the game OP. We are a growing clan  

 Welcome to the club dude, but it's very likely you'll be just as disappointed as everybody else once you see the difference between the first couple of days, and the incomplete pos the rest of the game is.
