This combat system will rock the mmo world. Mark my words we've never seen anything like it. This is the first real gamer's mmog.
It's conan, innovative, and the pvp will kick butt. There won't be macroing in combat. You'll need to be reactive, smart, and fast on your feet to keep up. If you are a pattern combat move player you will need to change your playstyle, even when fighting npcs. The AI is supposed to be able to react to your fighting style and change defensive stances and stuff. You'll need to see this happening and change your attack strategy on the fly to counter.
I think the mature content is just the icing on the cake. There's some real innovation and new stuff happening with this combat system. I think a lot of people are blinded to this exciting stuff by the M rating and breasts. Personally I could care less about it. I almost wish funcom would make it rated pg, so people would stop dwelling on this stupid crap. It is conan though and scantily clad people of both sexes are everywhere in the canon.
It's just sad that's all some people see when evaluating the game. It masks a lot of really good things happening with this game. I think the combat system will set the bar for the next generation of mmorpgs. Whether they will develop enough content to support it and keep people interested remains to be seen.
I have october 30th marked and am counting down to Conan
Graphics. Plain and simple, the graphs look way beyond any other MMORPG. And I don't usually even care how a game looks, but AoC graphics just make me ejaculate.
PvP is a big question mark for me. AoC is level based, so that's a HUGE minus for PvP'er. Then there is the Blood Coin system.. it sounds sucky, but we'll see.
Looking forward to it, but I seriously think they wont be launching this before Q1 2008. Just rumours I've heard.

PVP, simple as that.
