Nice little Video here: www.youtube.com/watch
Epic voice! I think it is a prelude to something bigger coming.
Plenty of flourishing RP happening from the community.

Did you post the correct link? I didn't see any RP, just a commercial for AoC.
The guy who made it "Ulferth of Cimmeria" from [Dracones Nigri] and is the RP Officer and was RP'ing his character to voice over in the context of Age of Conan, it's landscape, premise and mood. The voice over goes with his story in game.
Dracones Nigri are Italian and play on Aquilonia PvP-RP.
Ulferth has many RP premises, stories and interaction on his RP server and on the forums. I could post them up for you to knock him down though.
I'll give the guy credit, he is talented, he made the game look a thousand times more interesting than it really is. I guess that is why it seems like a commercial.
But my reall question is what does posting this video have to do with the "General Discussion" of the Age of Conan, maybe this post belongs in the Guild Hall section of these forums or another place that is more appropriate?
you do know the audio is taken from that right?
(made it a linky for you)
Good Catch.
I am not impressed anymore.
So much for Avery and his "The voice over goes with his story in game ... <he> has many RP premises, stories and interaction on his RP server and on the forums." statement.
Seems I was right in my assessment that it was a commercial, someone else's commercial.
Nicely made trailer.
I prefer to watch in-game pvp-vids myself, but gotta give the man cred for his editing, even tho he took the voice-over from somewhere else (who cares, it's youtube, u don't expect peeps to hire their own actors for voice-overs).
"nerf rock, paper is working as intended."

Head Chop
Some fan publishes a plagiarized video and showing nothing new and you somehow deduce that the RP in AoC is plenty and flourishing and make a far-fetched thread about it? Your logic is indeed impeccable... for a lackey.
The only "epic" with thisone is some dude ripping of the voice and sound of some other game and puts it together with ingame footage of Age of Conan.
Nah, this is nothing "pelude to something bigger comming".
Yeah, it's a prelude to Edge of Twlight being released anyway...
Ningen wa ningen da.

heh heh a fan video which ripped the voice over from another source, how appropriate for AoC.... somehow that just seems fitting in a lot of ways
I miss DAoC
That music and voice is ripped off of Edge of Twilight rpg for the xbox360! lol Has nothing to do with AoC and some upcoming new update at all.
Edge of Twilight <<< watch
HAHAHA. I guess this video will be yanked as soon as the rightful owners of that material send Youtube a little love letter.
LOL glad Failcom is not getting their monthly fee from me any more. Seems i quit the game for a reason... wait i did ALL THE LIES !!!
Played Aoc/DDO/FFXI/WAR / LoTRo / CO / Aion
Playing Rift
Waiting for FFXIV to be the game it should. so sad =(
Eh - seriously: Some of you guys need to lighten up a little. (Yeah my version of: "Some of you guys." does include Avery
)
So... Avery posts a fan-video. It features a grand, booming voiceover (was thinking: daaaamn - James Earl Jones on ... something
)
Voiceover is not original (user-made, whatever). In fact its a straigt ripoff, but the vid and the editing is definately unique. This thing will do just fine on mahinima.com until someone set up us the bomb i.e: Calls in the kopyrite police.
Read the first two posts Avery made - This IS fan material. (Notice the lack of "tan suit, fat boy Erling E." introduction
)
Personally I am glad to see that some fans really enjoy AoC. Taking the time to put a video like this together does (IMO) show a lot of dedication - no matter where the voiceover was "borrowed".
To me, Avery seems like a dedicated and devoted fan. It is easy to read (and apreciate) his posts in this light. I see Avery pointing out the positives and toning down the negatives surrounding AoC - Objective? Not at all, but do you seriously expect to find that anywhere on the internet?
Me defending Avery? Heh yeah absolutely. Not because I agree with his feelings towards AoC - Heck most of the time I disagree... But in this case: Seems like some of you guys forgot about the ball and went for the man.
We dont need casuals in our games!!! Errm... Well we DO need casuals to fund and populate our games - But the games should be all about "hardcore" because: We dont need casuals in our games!!!
(repeat ad infinitum)
Christ!!!!...lol...the guy posts a video he thinks is cool and AoC haters smell the meaty tidbit and ravenously take huge pointless bites out of something that is meant to say nothing...except "Check this out". He likes AoC (me too..heal!!...doggies...HEAL!!!)...so of course he will post an AoC fan video he found entertaining. So what if it was edited and the voice over was from another game.....like Youtube isn't already filled with copyright violations and re-edited/pirated materials put to CGI...whether it is captured or original video. Who gives a fuck!!!...you guys probably gobble that shit up on any other day....but because this is a vocal fan of AoC you have to act like ass hats. I hope the other games you play are the same ones I avoid.....because I can't imagine how asinine you'd act ...under the guise of roleplay inside an MMO.
edit: I guess the 2nd poster above me said it nicer but sometimes you haters are simply annoying.
Grow up. It is a fan video nothing more, nothing less. And you study philosophy?

Promote what you love instead of bashing what you hate.
I seem to recall there is a FREE TRIAL that people of their own free will can download and try the game out for themselves to see if they find the game fun and enjoyable then decide if they want to subscribe to the game or not.

Atleast he contributes by actually adding something to this forum. Far to many are just here to tear down, destroy and spread negativity.
Something bigger? You mean he's going to steal more voice-overs from Edge of Twilight when that game is released?
If that is what you took away from his explanation, there is certainly something wrong.
@: rest of thread
As if it is a new thing for a fan video to have copyrighted material in it, the video itself could be considered pirated, or are we all to think he did the CG to! People around here need to seriously grow up.

Well made video.
This video visited several websites too, when it was young. ^^
So I am not sure, if the AoC-user video is worth the discussion.

I don't think the video is the true issue, it's the manner in which it was represented to the community here. the OP could have edited his comments to what he claimed it was, when it turned out not to be the case, instead he got miffed when people called him on it.
Let alone that this is a discussion forum, not a fan site or the proper format for player made tribute videos. The video does not even show any actual game play, just eye candy. There are a ton of places on the WWW where that is appropriate post, unfortunately this isn't one of them.. And someone got caught here trying to use it as an advertisement. (Also the wrong outlet for that kind of endeavor)
You saw it as an advertisement. I saw it as a fan made video. Difference of opinion.
And if the OP had edited his comments there is no doubt you would have called him out for editing his comments.

And thiis forum is not a Fan Site. As I said there are many places where posting fan vids are welcomed and appropriate.
You have never seen me slam anyone for admitting they made a mistake.
This is a discussion forum, fan vids, fan fiction, guild progression, server firsts, gold advertising, game adverting, marketing, etc. Do not belong in this section.

I am sorry but fan vids very much do belong here. Go report the post if you don't think so.
In game footage, about the game.
Trolling doesn't belong here either Unfini$hed.
I can understand that media about the game upsets you so much.
