Ah, the homo erotic adventures of Age of Conan. I felt it’s time to acknowledge this game because a lot of people have been enjoying it the last few weeks and if you’re a previous MMO player or still addicted to WoW then it’s too bad you haven’t given it a chance yet. While it has its fair share of problems it at least is a bit more exciting than the usual MMO style gameplay. The real problem right now is the lacking content and not just in the end game. Tradeskills, class balance, zone work and countless other bugs are just a number of things that need immediate attention and from the first few weeks it doesn’t look like it’ll be a speedy recovery. But you do have to remember that MMOs need time to develop so remember that when you’re using your 5 button combos to deal hilarious fatalities to those cloth wearers.

As for the Ht guild our crew continues to build with community players like Hojo, Jayk, Cerb, Omedon, liquidfire and gigamonkey to name a few of the newer additions to the treadmill. The city has new buildings up and the main goal in development is resource gathering. Every class can have all 6 gathering skills so stock up on anything you can carry (thank god for that separate resource bag!) in preparation of the city upgrades that will be needed. A few players are approaching 80 already with Bucky and Odie both close.
