Disappointed with E3

Somehow, I thought we would be getting more from E3 than one video. Granted, it was an insane video, but for a 3 day convention, very little was revealed. We didn't get to see any extended gameplay. Just a demo of the end game dungeon, and a peak a the pet class. Every day I keep coming back looking for links to new info, assuming I must have missed something. But no...thats all there was. One demo, and one interview. Very little information. I was really excited in the days leading up to E3, and ended up disappointed.

i ASSUME they were just too busy putting up with the game rather than E 3

I am thrilled with the video. It is the first time I have the seen the "real" game in action.
I love the realism they use for everything from the armor and weapons to the environments. The dungeon they showed was the best one I have ever seen for an MMORPG and the only dungeon I have ever actually wanted to play in. I like how they make the cavern seem gigantic where other mmorpgs from EQ to WoW make dungeons seem very limited and narrow-pathed. In fact, I haven't seen dungeons like these since UO(Size Wise), especially Dastard? The one with the dragons anyway.
I absolutely hate the Enemy AI and hope to god you don't have aggro them first, even when inches away, in the finished game. I also don't care for the HUD. It seems way to un-imaginative and a not very....fluid. I like my HUDs as small as possible and not so damn cookie Cutter.
I also enjoyed the Scorpions. When was the last time Scorpions in an MMORPG looked like actual scorpions? They were a bit large but the thickness was right. I find the small real looking Scorps much nastier looking than gigantic fat ones.
Oh yeah, what the hell is up with them cutting to the 2 guys talking every few minutes? They obviously do this to make the interview and demo look more professional but they only manage to piss me off. I don't give a crap what these guys look like, I want to see every second of gameplay I can.
graphics look good but what about a pvp video so we can see and feel a 10v10 or more battle .Gameplay looks bit boring having only few skills from level 1-80 . Hope lag and ballance will be good.
With the mega guild sizes a 10v10 is pretty unlikely for the first few months.
Don't pay too much attention to what was released at E3 this year, not just for Conan but for all games. Everything was toned down for the public. They tried a different format this year to try to de-emphasize the expo's role in the industry, as odd as that sounds. (Producers were cracking the whips on developers to create content for E3, and as a result developers were spending too much time and money "benchmarking" for it than developing other critical areas of their games. Bad games were being overpolished and oversold at E3, while good games that weren't quite ready in time were often overlooked or even defamed by the show.)
awesomer? is that even a word?
that interviewer is pretty stupid.
MMO wish list:
-Changeable worlds
-Solid non level based game
-Sharks with lasers attached to their heads
I think he seems wuite smart, i mean hes talking to the guy like a gamer would, casual free and not restrained like a bloody newsreporter reading of a paper consisted only of fancy words.
More normal people for the world please! :P
but i agree with that guy, that they should show more inte about the game, lets hope the german show will give us more goodness.
Only one video but that was a very sweet video.
Max level characters and there was nothing pretty about them at all, you have to love that. Well, at least i love that. Hopefully the entire game will steer away from that pure fantasy, massively ornate armor and weapons.
I have to question the Necromancer though. He has eight pet points and he can spend them on 8 scorpions or 1 half naked demoness and he chooses the scorpions?????
