Games with realistic collision detection = best. Especially when combined with people being arseholes for a laugh...

Re: Age of Conan MMO

Honestly, after the first 20 levels this became a typical MMO Grindfest, Was really dissapointing to see how well they had constructed to levelling to help you learn both your class and some of the lore surounding lore. Then tuen it into *Kill 20 of these* quests.

Got to level 25 and then gave up, could not face another 55 levels of that.

How do you know the next 55 levels are like that if you've not done them?

The levels between 20-25 left me with no desire to continue on to see, that and the endless bugs and patches which broke more then they fixed(The game was still in a Beta State at launch bassicly), I just lost any desire to log in, or even pay the Subs.

A game, even one built on an MMO model which requires a little bit of grind, still has to be intresting enough to play, I play games for enjoyment, not to feel like I am getting punished at every turn.

That being said, I may return at some point, but my opinion stands.

I'm not really arguing that the game from 17 to 25 is like that, I stopped about level 20 because I wasn't getting into the mythos but you can't say the next 55 levels are like if you've not played them.

I still think LOTRO is about the most polished at release I've seen. I keep going back to it but just don't have enough time

I'd agree with that. Turbine learnt a hell of a lot from their failures with D&DO.

Although I find in LOTRO there is just too much to do (and it's hard to find active guilds )

Yeah there really is so much to do and the Active Guild bit is annoying . Could just be the server though. I do love the game though.
