Age of Conan - Soundtrack of the Week

XP4T has named the Age of Conan soundtrack their pick of the week. I have never played the game so I comment on the quality of the music.

It’s already been six years since we washed ashore for the first time on a beach somewhere near Tortage and started fighting our way to fame and glory in the MMORPG version of Robert E. Howard‘s legendary low-fantasy Conan world. From the very first moments of our epic adventure between the four continents of the Hyborian Age, our ears are blessed with the beautiful sounds of the original score, written for the game (and its expansions) by the Norwegian composer, musician and producer, Knut Avenstroup Haugen. And despite the ups and downs that the Age of Conan franchise has experienced over the years, its music still stands out so much that we decided it deserves immediate recognition in our new weekly XP4T.com series, as one of the best original soundtracks ever written for a game.
