If anyone ever wanted to try this game but was put off by subscription, you can try it now for free:

http://www.ageofconan.com/

It's a decent game, has a good combat system and pretty graphics.

i played on release and it was pretty meh.  not worth a subscription and not even worth playing free.
APB is more entertaining for free.

Both of them have pretty weak failed game design, mainly instancing.

Well, AoC release was the reason why the game had such a bad player base right from the start. They have improved it significantly, even tho PvP could use some more tweaks. Imo, the only thing that the game lacks now is players (not sure how many the free model brought as I haven't played in months).

Btw, if you already had some characters with the classes that are NOT included in free version (from a trial or previous subscription) you can still play them! One of my clan mates recovered his trial account he made months ago and he can play a Herald of Xotli :D

Hmm, every sandbox i have tried, feeled a bit like "we are too lazy to create some contend for you. so here you have a few tools, make your own stuff and don´t bother us anymore." And there were simple kill quests as well.

Anyway for mmorpg i prefer simple, story driven, point&click ones. So i can clear some dungeons and do additionally something different.
But unfortunately pest features like "quest radar" and "blinking hotspots" are become more and more common lately (well and the f2p crap).

The Conan MMO itself was a bit disappointing. Meele combos sounded nice, i though that it will be like Street Fighter. But naa, i had to click on the skill then i had to click the right combo and not until then it fired off. So it was the standard system, only a bit more complicated (in other words, crap).

Ultima Online - Sandbox God

Mortal Online - A pile of underdeveloped garbage so bad, that when they first released it they left on the Unreal Engine console, and the general player base could use console commands.

Age of Conan - Dongs, and boobies, and a shitty game you don't have to pay for anymore.
