A lot of updates and additional content have been coming down the pipe for Age of Conan in the last several months, and that pace doesn't look to be slowing down anytime soon. It's one thing to slap another fifteen bucks on the table in order to give an MMO the second go-round. That's why we're wondering how many previously subscribed players would be interested in re-installing and patching (a courageous task indeed) the game to see how things have changed.
All things considered, we'll probably see a "come back for free" deal out of Funcom sometime this year. And it's possible that new and intriguing content updates will have manifested on the live servers by that time. Our curiosity will of course mean a revisit to Hyperborea for us, but what about for you, our dear readers?

Very doubtful. I would default to my evergrowing list of single player titles I've missed in the last few years before bending over for another round with that fiend.

Yes I would!
But I'm already paying for it now so of course. I have played since i got my collectors edition and i love the game and the way every update improves it even more and adds extra content.
After growing bored with wow after 4 years, it's a breath of fresh air and a great step up in gameplay, graphics and sound. (yes I'm a gfx & sfx whore and I love it)

No way. I paid full retail for *two* copies of this game - one for me and one for my wife - when it came out and the game was HORRIBLY incomplete. Never again...

I have never before been lied to so much by a game company. And now they want me to come back?
Never again, Funcom

I quit AOC just before christmas 2008, and have just returned this week.
First off specs for this game, i run vista63, 4meg ram and a 8800 GT, and a duel core 3ghz intel thingy.
I have no performance issues at all, memory leak has gone and i can play all day and maybe have to relog once due to me flicking between other applications and it borks it up.
As for content all of the leveling holes have been fixed, raid instances work like there intended, there a still a few bugs around but nothing major at all and most importantly there is always something to do at level 80.
My advice is wait till 1.5 patch hits re-install and maybe start a fresh on Tortage. Been on the test server and DX10 is something quite staggering fora mmporg and yes my 8800GT runs it just fine, of course i have to turn down some distances but overall it is turning in to a great little MMPORG
JUST REMEMBER THIS IS NOT WOW NOR IS IT MEANT TO BE LIKE WOW THANK THE GODS FOR THAT.
