June 29, 2010 - Good - Conan isn't about to threaten the biggest players in the MMO space, but it has found a niche for itself nonetheless, and Godslayer sees it settling into that role in confident and well-executed style.

July 13, 2010 - Good - For gamers on the prowl for a WoW-ternative, Age of Conan: Hyborean Adventures has been a top candidate since Day One. Its first expansion, Rise of the Godslayer, not only meets the core game's standards but deepens the experience enough to hook new players and call dormant level 80s home.

July 7, 2010 - Good - If stability issues and early content gaps caused you to turn away from the original Age of Conan, Rise of the Godslayer is a great reason to revisit this blood-soaked world.

June 1, 2010 - Good - Where Age of Conan falls short is in variety, and if reputation grinding is something you cannot abide - and for many MMO players, it is - then Age of Conan: Rise of the Godslayer is not your expansion. For everyone else, the alternate advancement, new dungeons, factions, and the land of Khitai are all good reasons to return to Robert E. Howard's brutal world.

May 11, 2010 - Good - We shouldn't really have to sell Rise of the Godslayer to loyal fans, but we'd happily recommend it to players that left the game due to bugs and balancing issues. Age of Conan's changed much for the better.

June 7, 2010 - Good - Age of Conan in this state is a hell of a lot closer to the world that people envisaged prior to the original release, and Godslayer simply fills one of the final gaps and expands horizontally at higher levels. If there ever was a game that desvered an official relaunch, this would be it.
