Age of Conan - Interview @ WarCry

While at the AGDC this year WarCry caught up with Funcom's Jørgen Tharaldsen to chat about Age of Conan.

Funcom has also made waves with their decision to go for a mature rating, the first mainstream MMO to do so. Tharaldsen told us that it was not a decision taken lightly, but that it is definitely more than just a gimmick. For them, to truly build a world that honors the universe Robert E. Howard created, they had to have an "M" rating. Anything else would be watered down. He also pointed out that the entire game is mature, not just a few parts for show. It permeates their quest, their art and their combat.

"[If it was not mature] it wouldn't be a Conan game," Tharaldsen said.
