Lots of New Screenshots!
Vault Network has posted a preview of Age of Conan today. It includes lots of new screenshots as well as a look at the upcoming game.
It appears that the game will begin in a traditional fashion, with an extensive character-creation editor for shaping the look of your in-game persona. Sliders enable minute changes to your characters appearance, and the results are quite realisticcertainly more lifelike than most current-day MMOs.
Interestingly enough, theres not a lot of early determination of your characters history or attributes. After you choose a gender and craft your characters appearance, you only have the option to select a class from Aquilonian, Cimmerian or Stygian. No skill-point allocations or other determinations are thrown at you. Its only when you achieve Level 5 that you can choose from an archetype: Mage, Priest, Rogue or Soldier.
