Conan MMORPG In The Works · Slashdot Mirror

Posted by Zonk on Thursday April 21, 2005 @10:53AM from the me-zonk-you-mmmog dept.

Based on Robert Howard's classic Conan the Barbarian series, The Age of Conan: Hyborean Adventures is in production by Anarchy Online developer Funcom. On top of the setting, Funcom apparently plans to shake up the traditional massive formula. From the article: "Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures will be a PC 'online action RPG' that will be a mix of 'story-driven single-player experience and a massive and brutal multiplayer endgame.' According to Funcom game director Gaute Godager, it will begin as a single-player RPG adventure, and when that portion's story is complete, it will let players bring their characters into an MMORPG universe."

But what about Andy? by identity0 · 2005-04-21 10:57 · Score: 4, Funny

Conan just hasn't been the same since Andy Richter left.

Oh well, at least it'll have La Bamba, right? And Max? And Joel, the manic-depressive announcer?

I can see it now: "Play Conan! The only MMORPG with a masturbating bear!"
