Trying Age of Conan
Posted 05-22-2008 at 01:23 PM by Thist
Not sure yet if I like it enough to play it a lot or not.
I was annoyed at Funcom for some out-of-game things like them advertising 7-day guest passes (1 with normal edition, more with collectors), but not giving them out yet (no ETA either).
In-game bug that I am most annoyed at: the bank, auction house, mailing system is down (all same NPC).
Other bugs that haven't affected me yet but that sound pretty horrible: respeccing feats removes all your professions and you can't get them back at this time, some characters are stuck crashing in a loop in areas, you can get ganked before you load, and while talking to npcs. Anyone had any of these happen to them?
On the plus side: graphics are nice (although not as nice as I expected - I gave my char a large rear and her starting bikini overlapped with flesh, and often her boobs show from the side in odd ways).
I'll try it some more this weekend and see if it seems worth it.

 | Hate to say it, but it's Funcom. There was a lot to like about Anarchy Online, but in the end it was a poorly designed, more poorly executed piece of crap. Only real reason I liked it was because I got to play a god class (Agent) for a few months. The atmosphere was cool, and it had neat ideas, but Funcom couldn't get their crap together. I may be wrong and AoC may be the best thing ever in time, but it sure sounds reminiscent. |
