Massively: Conan fans will recognize the above passage as one of the most famous in the barbarian's extensive canon. It appears at the beginning of 1932's The Phoenix on the Sword and serves as a brief teaser for the history that underlies the world of Hyboria. Being something of an MMO lore junkie (and given the fact that I'm slowly working my way through Robert E. Howard's Conan library), I've often wondered about the origins of the Nemedian Chronicles and the people who wrote them. While Nemedia itself is not yet accessible in Age of Conan, Funcom's nods to Nemedian culture are numerous, and nowhere is this more evident than the Border Range. Join me after the cut for some impressions on this war-torn zone and the stories behind it.
Believe it or not, the MMORPG Age of Conan has been around for 12 years now. Now free-to-play and rebranded as Unchained, Funcom has released one of the largest updates in years.
Man, this game was SO good when it first came out. Then they came out with that graphics overhaul and it ruined everything.
The Saga of Zath server, a unique limited-time Age of Conan progression server, will challenge players to achieve milestones for unique rewards.
Funcom has announced that Knut Avenstroup Haugen, the award-winning composer behind the Age of Conan soundtrack, is on board and will be producing new music for their upcoming game featuring the famous barbarian, Conan Exiles. A sample from the new soundtrack for Conan Exiles has been released, and can be listened to on Funcom’s YouTube …
AoC's soundtrack is certainly in top 3 of all the games I've played.
Game looks like shit tho.
