Age of Conan was one of the most underrated MMORPG's in the genre in my opinion, wish we could get a re-do.

I'm expecting this will be the Conan RPG, and that the next online Conan game will be announced next year.

I hope so too.

I just hope that the combat is fun. I like the first one but I didnt really care for the melee directional component that it had. Maybe do more of a Tera style action combat. Anyway It'll probly be a mobile title anyway.

Sweet! Love Conan

AoC was a clear case of over promise / under deliver.  The classes were gutted and the post newbie island experience was a let down.  There were other issues but remember that being a couple of the biggies at launch.  And the whole pesky no one could run the game at decent framerate. 

I liked the combat more than anything and the setting was nice as well.  Crafting was meh and end game was very very meh.

You are the reason the game is underrated, without you it would just be what it is lol. I think it was a much better game than you give it credit for....hence underrated imo.

It did suffer at launch, just like Warhammer Online which also turned out to be a great underrated MMO. This is the problem with the MMO crowd, there are games not called FFXIV that were bad at launch but were fixed not long after. Your loss if you did not go back.

I don't have much faith in them anymore...They haven't done a game right since AO.

From one who was given a perma-ban from Funcom for asking a question 3 months after 1st conan. " Beware " same question I asked then I will ask now when will the Bar Room brawling be added ?

marsmercer

I predict that this will be a Sandbox MMO utilizing all of the assets from Exiles. Insert quest NPCs and perhaps territory control and viola!

When fallout 76 fails and you poo your pants because you were hoping that people would be silly enough to keep buying recycled names plastered on poop.

They had me at Conan. Instantly placed on my watch list.


"Conan?" "What is best in life?"
"Any game on pc or console! Games on mobile suck!!!"
"Hmmm, well said, Conan!"

I liked Anarchy Online a lot. I liked Secret World the quests were good and it had a great atmosphere and story, combat was meh.

It was the first video game I ever played where you could visually decapitate your foe. The first thought that came to my head when I first saw this game was Conan

Based on their Q3 Financials video, This is going to be coming Q2 of 2019, only on PC, and since they are publishing the game for Petroglyph Games, most likely an RTS of some kind. Cheers!
