Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures Preview

The folks at GamersInfo.net have conjured up a preview of Funcom's Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures, based on what they saw of the game at DragonCon earlier this year.
One of the advantages of starting off single player (remember, the first 20 levels of the 80 levels you can get are off-line solo levels) is that the player will be able to have a much more interactive experience with the NPCs while learning the game, as well as four branching story types depending on the player's archetype. There will be 20 PvP levels available, with PvP talents and abilities that are ONLY usable in PvP. Those are in addition to your PvE levels, though you'll probably want to level to a certain point in PvE before trying to get your PvP levels.
