Looks like the new WoW. (?). You should expect this game to receive alot of hatred and a couple of Southpark/Family Guy episodes

about 2 million shy of being anything close to WoW`s launch. But a great Mature MMO indeed.

It doesn't have the gaming brand recognition that was built into WoW.

As a long standing Conan fan I hope the best for the game even if I never play it. I read all the Conan books by Howard and DeCamp and also read the comics/mags etc in the days when computers were the size of a broom closet.

I hope they "get it right". One thing that puts me off WoW is the 'cute ogre' syndrome. I like my fantasy immersive and not parody. I can handle it in Warcraft's RTS games but for an MMO I would require something more adult oriented.

If I had days to burn... this would be where I'd go.

I don't expect it to "kill" wow, but I expect it to do quite well. Subscriptions around 1-3 million.

Don't they know PC gaming is dead? Someone should pass Funcom the memo.

Come on guys AOC has major issues it's an unfinished game. It's instanced based. Man what a let down. It's not even an MMORPG. Think Guild WARs and D&D online. The best thing about it is the pvp everything else is kinda trashy.

The instances really sucks. But its not as bad as Guild Wars. More like EQ2 and it's zones. The constant loading whenever you enter a building really blows tho.
