Alright,


As many of you know, and more of you might not, there's a pretty awesome looking game coming out in late may, Age of Conan. This is another MMO, set in Hyboria, the world of Conan and allows you to pick any one of three races: Stygian, Aquilonian, or Cimmerian. I think I spelled those correctly  ]:D. Anyways, it's got some pretty nifty features such as real-time combat (i.e. where you swing your sword/axe/mace/whatever = where it will go, and if you want to block something, you need to get in it's way) however the most talked about feature is the ESRB rating it will receive:

It's the first MMO to receive a Mature Audiences rating. In other words, they didn't pull any punches on this one folks: it has beer, blood, bimbos, and all the nastiness you can ever desire. On top of that, it seems that this is just a feature of an altogether solid game. WoW killer? Doubtful, because the industry doesn't work like that, but it will carve out a niche for itself and probably surpass anything to date besides wow.



When it comes out on may 20th I will be playing it. I really want to try it out, it looks to be very good. If any of yall are interested I figured I should create a thread for it. For those who haven't heard of it, here's the link:

Most people think Marv is crazy. He just had the rotten luck of being born in the wrong century. He'd be right at home on some ancient battlefield swinging an axe into somebody's face.

You'll be back Tris!  :P
