Fun Combat? Who Knew!

Now that thousands of players have entered the realms of Hyboria, many of us at Ten Ton Hammer are wondering whether the new form of combat introduced in Age of Conan will actually influence the next generation of MMOGs. In his editorial, Garrett Fuller tries to address this question, along with other thoughts about AoC. Enjoy!

In Conan you are fighting two to three opponents at once and blood is flying everywhere while you pick and choose your attacks. Other games really should take a look at this model simply because it has the player in mind and really is just plain fun.
