Summary
Game Description
Set in the dark, draconian universe of Conan, Hyborian Adventures is divided into two segments. The first 20 levels of the game has you play through the single player portion, giving players time to understand the mechanics and familiarize themselves with the plot and events in the world. Once past that, those who want to continue can then enter the massively multiplayer portion, which then spans for another 60 levels. Every 20 levels are being treated as tiers, and eventually you'll be able to diversify your class with Hero class-like abilities.

Meh 2.0
Game has major probs that the devs don't seem to want to deal with, memory hole big enough to drive a Mack truck through, lag, broken quests etc.
Other than that the game is very complicated, you're attention gets focused on the fight controls rather than the action on the screen. Chars are very ruf and fugly, no zoom control.
But really worse than anything, the game just doesn't live up to Robert Howard's epic adventures. It just feels unfinished.True fans of Conan need to give this puppy a wide berth rather than risk dissilusionment.

Well...i guess
meh its not bad...the downfall however is u need a computer that can launch stuff for NASA. Im above the min requirements but its still slow and glitchy. Just everything about the game is slow. From signing in...to creating a character....to everything. The fight system is cool but way to indepth...it seems like they tried to do TOOOO MUCH. Like 1,2,3 are attacks like left right overhead attacks....and CTRL 1 CTRL 2 CTRL 3 are shield blocks. Theres like 5 different attack views and everything...its just WAY too much to take in after playin wow for so long. Book is like a damn bible, 4 pages of nothing but controls....thats just too much for me. I think if they would have dumbed it down just a little and not make EVERY movement and action a button on the keypad...it would be better...The story s pretty good and the custom characters are a nice feature. Another plus is the fact that its ALL voice acted...which i foun quite nice. And the fatalities are a real nice feature...but like i said..unless u have an insane computer that can pretty much DO anything u want it to do...then DO NOT but AoC...just tryin to run the character creation will cause ur tower to go BOOM. This is y i like console better...just insert the disk...and play...no MIN REQUIREMENTS needed...plug and play thats my motto.
