What's the latest scoop on AoC, CVG?

CVG returns with another Age of Conan preview. Were their concerns addressed? You'll have to read to find out.

So what have Funcom been doing with Age of Conan since PC ZONE unceremoniously infuriated barbarian fans across the globe by calling Conan "an awful stereotype of a fantasy RPG class most people don't choose any more"?

Our last hands-on with Funcom's online action-RPG threw up various concerns about the game's combat system, which we criticised as being "a little clunky", "a little fiddly", "cumbersome" and "ideally suited to players with three hands".

Not long after heaping our worries on the plucky developer (whose previous successes include Anarchy Online and Dreamfall), Funcom delayed releasing Age of Conan until our concerns, and feedback from the ongoing beta testing, had been thoroughly addressed.
