Slicing, dicing, and bloodying up the neighborhood. Welcome to AoC.
1UP has a nice preview posted to whet your appetite for Funcom's upcoming MMO Age of Conan.
While recent MMORPGs like Tabula Rasa have tried to mix up a genre dead-set in its ways, substituting guns for swords and space-plastik suits for plate mail, Funcom's upcoming Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures offers about as straight-up a setting as they come. Human barbarians, warrior-priests, and mages fighting thieves, spiders, and monsters -- we've seen this before, even if the Conan "brand" predates most of gaming's current fantasy universes.
