Age of Conan: Fifty-Seven Screenshots, Renders, and Concept Artwork

[Cody Bye]

Last week, a legion of game industry press descended upon San Francisco to witness the latest build of Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures. According to those who attended, it was a barrel of fun and the gore flowed freely. But the play test wasn't the only thing the press received; they also received a huge bundle of AoC renders, concept artwork, and screenshots straight from the developers. However, those images were off limits until today, and the staff at Ten Ton Hammer has kept a weary watch on the clock to the exact instant when these screenshots were free to post. AoC fans, we present you with 56 pieces of screen candy (three pages!!) for your holiday pleasure. Enjoy the early gift!

What do you think of all the concept art, renders, and screenshots? Do you want more? Let us know!

This game is going to be soooo good, it's not even funny.

At least, I hope it is. Please not another Vanguard.

I've actually seen and played some of the little bits in AoC. They DO have work yet to do, but even at this point the game is 100% better than VG was.

I am just a sucker for high fantasy MMOGs and this one is keeping me glued to it. Looks great.

I should have learn my lesson but I am looking foward to AoC and want to play it badly

sadly, they wrote (somewhere on the AoC Homepage) that the amount of "mature content" would depend on the IP address verification of corresponding countrys.

Guess no flying heads for germany

Wow, that is actually quite surprising considering some of the stuff that has come out of Germany in tha past. I mean, when I was in my very early 20's I was mildly scarred for life after a now loooong ex-girlfriend showed me some German 'adult' movies she had in her collection.

I am surprised to see such a conservative reaction to computer game content.

Germans are all about the sex.....not so much about the violence.

Some people would argue that the act of sex itself is violent due to its penetrating nature... Oh wait wrong forums.

This game looks great! As long as they don't go whacky on gameplay mechanics, I think it'll do alright.

Going back and forth between Warhammer and Age of Conan, its a toss up. So I'm going to play both and not listen to the hype that both are producing in the ads. I can make up my own mind once in these games.
