Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures vs World of Warcraft

by

I’ve heard a lot about Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures the last few months. AOC is an online action RPG. And if it’s something I really would like …it would be a dark MMO game with great PvP.

But somehow I have doubts … everyone says that this will be the greatest game of all time …but when you look at the pictures …I don’t know, it feels a bit like been there, done that, doesn’t it?

Yes I know it has great graphics, I know that it will improve the PvP gaming, taking it to cloud 9 …but is it fun?

Frankly, I am worried. It’s not that I don’t like dark games or something. It’s just that …well, I want some love put into the development. As far as I can see from the pictures, this could be a darkened and polished EQ or LOTRO visually. I really want a game made with a touch of humor and love put into the characters …

I mean everyone is wondering why World of Warcraft is kicking ass and attract new gamers. Why do people love the cartoonish and old game with big cows walking around … Huh?

You don’t get it? Well, take a trip to Azeroth and just spend a few hours in Stormwind or Undercity and talk to the NPC´s. Why do people love World of Warcraft? I have one word for you folks: Love!

Meanwhile I have two gampeplay videos from Age of Conan … Still not saying it’s a bad game …just would love something more than what I see right now.

In AOC the players will encounter a dark, lush, violent and sinful universe, presented in fantastic graphics and stunning 7.1 surround audio. In the true vision of Robert E. Howard’s dark universe it’s now time for you to become a messenger of death.
