A buff from sex? uhh, dont most ahtletes stay away from sex before they're about to perform? So it should be the other way around, that you get a debuff if you have sex.
And may I just add that even though Conan books and movies had sex in it, it was far from the main thing. It should be about brute force and the survivial of the strongest, not porno scenes.

Are you a ahtletes in a video game? It just a video game man, not real life, use your brain, it just your imagination... It like I'll need to type all the good side and bad side of sex soon enough if it continue cuz of idiot cotniuing saying it should be a debuff instead of a buff.. lol.. I Don't know which kind of sex you have to be wanting a freaking debuff all the time but it realy ~ FREAKY ~ and I mean it. You guy are acting like this will be a freaking dating sims game.
I seriously SERIOUSLY doubt sex will be PvP meaning it will be with npcs at a brotheral or something not two real players doing it that would be silly. it'll be a buff which you pay for like in any game but with a rudder name basically. lets not speculate about this and get all the peverts who play mmorpg's even more excited, too many people treat online games as dating services as it is.
I suspect the devs are going to keep a tight reigns on this area of the game. As Stradden said, I can only imagine a place like a brothel where players pay for pleasure with NPCs. Go into a closed room and come out with some buff. Problably on the lines with drunkeness. More rare would be storyline missions and a maiden "thanking" a male player character. I suppose it can be a male thanking a female as well, but is this in Conan lore?
If they give players t he ability to buff each other via online sex, it will ruin the game.
As a cultural tool or storyline type of thing I do not mind the sex in the game. It will work. If it ends up like a player ability (sexual prowess skill) it will harm the game more than contribute to it.
Mainly this is about a brothel renting hooker getting a load screen for a minute coming out with a buff. For other player buffing with sex, wont be needed, there are already enough USEFUL buff that are implemented in the game for that, most class get atleast one, but there more support class such as bear shaman, priest of mitra and such so dont worry. Even if sex get in between player, if it affect the player range too much they'll fix it ... simple as that.. so stop the panic over this already :P lol
I'm a female MMOgamer who's been looking forward to AoC since 2005. I love the thought of cleaving my enemies' heads from their shoulders. My first thought at reading this newsbite was "lol". It's quaint and amusing and I don't mind it at all. i just assumed they didn't mean graphic sex because that's the sensible assumption to make when you think about how the rating system works. I also assume the buff isn't really going to give you a very big advantage in combat or last especially long. If the buff made any sort of difference people would complain.
All I want to be reassured is that there will be some hot manwhores to bang right along with the female ones. ^^
Haha, finaly a smart one, yep, doubt there will be any graphic sex or such...
** See the women looking for hot manwhore , *grin* ~ stealth behind her ~ *Siffle* ~ Poke Dagger on the Back and Another under the throat and say "Sigh, another one seeking super man buff huh, want ya head rolling or ya paying me instead ? " ** ( In the way, pay or die, so no buff for you.) ** but doubt I could do that in game since the hooker would probly be in safe city ... unless we could hire some hooker in player made town... would be awesome for me to lurk in their town and own them haha.
Carpface, If there was cigarette in Conan , there will probly be in the game, but if there's not, forget about it. If there was some kind of drug, then maybe there will be.
My only concern is for the poor girls in game that must face the wraith of an end game guild getting that last buff in before the start of a raid. 24 men, 1 tavern?
IF they're good they should be able to have the best gear and most loot!
This is an epic failure if I've ever seen one. They sold the game saying that this would be in it and it isn't. The game might as well be rated T at best. Oh wait, there's nipples... that' TOTALLY deserves an M rating, sorry.

Whether this is a good game mechanic or not is not the point. The fact that they attempted to sell the game based on this feature and other features that were not put into the game makes it a horrible failure.
Haha, looks like somebody is necroing a year old threads. Get a grip people. The game is sold with the features that are in it. Not the features that are promised (if they were promised at all, sex buff was an urban myth created due to the nudity). If promises were selling, Darkfall developers would be millionaires.
In Ultima VII - The Black Gate, the Avatar could go to the "Bath House", there were both male and female prostitutes and you could hire them for sex, then the screen went black, and you were "leaving as a much happier avatar". I am sure it will be along those lines, so no Pron to be expected here. However, since Ultima was a place of virtue, it was all very progressive, so you could hire a male and male and a female and female. Wonder if Conan goes that far. (THAT would almost be a reason for me to buy it, heh.)
I understand in US sex is a kind of "hot topic". No offense, but it seems to me as European you US folks have an unnaturally tense relationship towards sex. I dont understand all the fuzz about this boob thing and stuff. I mean, it sometimes annoyes me to be too much ocnfronted with sexual themes in a fantasy game, but only because I dont like it to be overly expressed since it tends to get on my nerve for being so primitve in approach.
I recall in a report about the history of the modern stock market I saw British stocks from 1900, and guess what there was a woman with nude boobs and nipples. And that in old puritan England of 1900. Or many you visit Munich or Berlin in summer and see the nude ppl sunbathing in the park and NONE cares. Its just you US folks having such an unnatural relation to the human body and sex, we Europeans, and Scandinavians esp. have a much more relaxed view on this any maybe just this time you learn something from us stupid old worlders, ja ne?
I CAN understand however the emphasis AoC plays on this attracts a plethora of a less than mature audience, but thats more a problem of some regions of humanity having a weird approach with sexuality than Funcom's fault.
There. Never call me a hateboi again because I also CRITICIZE things in AoC!

Pretty cool idea for a Conan game... Can't wait to get my "buff" on.
/Cigarette?
LOL, or imagine girls running around with their boobs out screaming "SOMEONE BUFF AND WAX ME"
i guess it wouldn't be strange to see a pair of hairy boobs in hyboria.
