Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures the slash-and-gash trailer no.5
The legend of Conan the Barbarian, it may surprise you, didn’t start with the movie that starred bodybuilder-turned robotic actor-turned slick California Governor Arnold S. The character was created by Robert E. Howard back in the 1930s. Some 40 years later, Conan appeared in Marvel Comics in 1970 followed by the movie franchise in the 80s.
Based on the original story, Conan is a Cimmerian and comes from the far north. Born on a battlefield, he became a noted warrior shortly after hitting puberty. Conan eventually became a rolling stone always looking for adventures. His path is often stained by blood and littered by severed body parts. His encounters were anything but boring: monsters, powerful evil wizards, beautiful wenches and princesses were part of his social circle.
But he was never the typical hero guided by the same noble principles of say, Captain America. Conan may have performed feats worthy of heroes but his motives were highly questionable. Conan was a thief, an outlaw, a mercenary and a pirate. Despite his spotty resume, he became king in his forties.
Now, Conan is poised to conquer another world. Or make that another medium. The latest trailer for the upcoming MMORPG game Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures shows the dude hasn’t mellowed one bit! Conan may be royalty but don’t expect to see him drinking tea with one pinky in the air. But our hero is far too busy carving up his enemies like Thanksgiving Turkeys.
