Age of Conan: Preview @ HookedGamers
   

HookedGamers send word that they've previewed Funcom's upcoming MMO Age of Conan.<blockquote><em>The game is already well-known for its pretty unique character development process which practically covers the first 20 levels of gameplay in single-player mode. Only after this character- forming adventure is finished, will the character be introduced to the multiplayer aspect of the game. The initial single-player part of the game starts the story off with the main hero introduced as a galley slave, or the heroine as another kind of a slave, who, after a shipwreck, washes up on a shore of an island. The character will have lost his/her memory and starts the game practically from nothing. <br> <br>The character-forming part of the adventure offers 10-15 hours of gameplay and four possible storylines that direct the character towards one of the four main character archetypes in the game: a soldier, priest, mage or rogue. This main archetype will later be diversified by the choices that the player makes and leads to various classes by the time the MMO part of the game begins, such as a zealot, barbarian or a priest.</em></blockquote><a href="http://www.hookedgamers.com/forwarder.html?http://www.hookedgamers.com/previews/2006/6/age_of_conan_hyborian_adventures/" target="_blank">More...</a>

According to this article sounds like they're dumbing it down to accomodate the lowest-common denominator, thats a pity. I've had high hopes for a more serious adult game, this is supposed to be Conans world, not Wow.
