Conan, Conan, Conan. I remember when you were just in a book and a little character. You went from movies, comics, and a different game(it was pretty bad though), but this, is a different, this is a whole new level. In this game, O prince, you are a slave on a boat rowing it until some people bomb your boat and it sinks. But somehow you survive the attack, and you end up on shore. Before all of this happens, you can create your own character in which I've never seen so complex character customization since Oblivion, and its in an MMORPG. So after you land a shore you meet a guy who says that your slave master has survived and is going to town to tell that his boat of slaves sank, and don't let them in. In order to get your freedom, you have to kill him. This just happens yet, you have to gain a few levels. The graphics for the game are amazing for an MMO. Many MMOGs like WoW have outdated graphics and look pretty cartoony as well, but this look more realistic than other ones. The requirements however are really high, even on the lowest settings, I still get a low FPS, which is not a problem, I'm used to it. So I up the path but a woman is in my way so I have to get a key from a pirate to unlock her. This is my first combat sequence and I'm nervous I'll die. The controls are also great as well. The attacking makes it so that people have to stay on their feet when they are fighting not like they're standing their and attacking. The bad guy has arrows around him which means that he has protection there than the other places,which in so you have a choice or attacking the unprotected part. I kill him and I get the key to unlock this girl. So were walking and we kill stuff, more stuff, and more stuff we get to town. At the town there is a tyrant who is ruling and is making everybody mad because of what he's doing. In the daytime, you are playing multiplayer with other people that has nothing to do with the story. At night though(you can switch anytime you want by going to the inn and sleeping) you are playing singleplayer against the tyrant of the city. The story of the game(which I won't give a way) is ok, it's nothing special, its like any other game. What I like about this game is that you feel like a hero, In WoW I feel I'm like small and just a regular person, in LOTRO I feel like a soldier in the army, but in AoC, I feel like I'm actually part of something in the story, and a main part too. As of now this my MMO that I will be playing, until WoTLK comes out or WAR. This a revolutionary game and I recommend it to all MMO gamers.
