But I did find many of the interviews where he talked about how Conan spoke to him to be very entertaining. Often if taken at face value it makes him sound crazy; I'll let the reader do the research on the ones I'm talking about.
However, and I do agree and think the setting stands a little apart from other fantasy is how gritty this world is that Howard created. If they stick to that I don't guess it'll fall prey to the typical dragons and fairies play of other mmorpg settings.
If this turns out as well as I think it will despite not being a real 'fan' of the setting I would venture this company might do well with a Dune mmorpg somewhere down the road. Just to throw a hypothetical out there today.

Drunks urinating off the docks is in and confirmed  It will be gritty

Yup and prostitutes around every corner and bar fights everywhere. There is very little that you will not be able to find in this game.

Actually, I've had Vista for about 2 weeks now and I've had very little problems. Just have to read up a little to make options appear and have to set things correctly to get permissions. I actually just finished the machine I was talking about getting months ago. Paid 850 bucks so far for new case, 4 gigs of memory, core2 duo processor, 320 gig sata hard drive and I got vista for only 130 bucks. All that I need now is to upgrade my video card. Even spending $400 on it will still put me under budget. Thougth I was gonna be spending 1400 on this thing and with a kickass video card it is only gonna be about 1200 or so.
