Reviews about game: age of conan
The game received “generally favorable reviews” according to Metacritic.[42] However, promises not kept by Funcom’s initial launch marketing such as DX10 compatibility and subsequent NDA blunders have led to a huge backlash by players of the game. To date, Funcom plans on releasing a free content update that promises much of the content that was not ready for release, as well as new adventuring zones, PvP rewards, and revamping of current dungeons - refreshing news to many of the players.
Many publications[who?] would not give the game a rating until it had come out of Beta such as Thirteen1 online gaming zine who said it ‘wasn’t fair’ to do so. [44]
Seth Schiesel, writing for the New York Times, felt that the development of the game would have benefited from a few extra months of production. Age of Conan did not receive the widespread mass-appeal of other games that are offered on home consoles, although Funcom has promised a version for Xbox 360 in 2009. [45]
