Skill allocation in Age of Conan meanwhile is different compared to other MMOs, you are given attribute points per level to allocate on certain skills and abilities your character has. However, unlike in other MMOs where it's via stat points, here your ability has a maximum amount to put into and as you put more attribute points your character becomes more proficient in that said skill or ability. One example is adding more points to your running or climbing ability makes you a faster runner or climber.

Features
Age of Conan has a lot of features that makes the game top notch. Besides the combat system, the game also lets you create a city of your own. However only guilds can create a city of their own, as long as your guild is earning well and that your members are active your city will flourish.

Tradeskills are also part of the game. Tradeskills in Age of Conan Gold enables players to earn gold besides the usual PvE. Mounts are also found in the game and you can even attack while mounted on them.

When it comes to Pvp in Age of Conan, the siege system would be the feature you would probably enjoy. In the battle siege system, your guild can participate in taking over or defending cities.

Conclusion
Age of Conan Hyborian Adventures is one of those games which makes you feel like that you are swept into a someplace that is out of this world. With the game's rich history, which is taken from one of the longest surviving characters in a fantasy story, it wouldn't be a surprise that you'd feel that "this is no longer Oz anymore".

The game sets the tone of the dark world of Hyboria wonderfully and there is no doubt that this is may be what Robert E. Howard's world would have looked like if you consider it outside of what he has written.

However, with such an extravagant display of a lush and dark world comes with a price as a game. In an industry where your game needs to not only look good but deliver as well, it seems that Age of Conan Gold fails to deliver as an MMO in stability.

Age of Conan burden's your desktop with its heavy graphics that sometimes it freezes the game. At first thought it may be really not that problematic but you haven't experienced fighting with 3 enemies then your game freezes for about ten seconds, insta-death and of irritation don't you agree?
