Age of Conan: Post-Launch Interview

Ten Ton Hammer has scored a post-launch interview with Age of Conan's Erling Ellingsen. The interview focuses on moments of pride, Ellingsen's next project and where he's going to vacation now that the game has launched.

Ten Ton Hammer: In your own words, what was the Funcom studio like the night the game launched? Did anyone sleep?

Erling: The atmosphere was unbelievable! We launched the early access servers on Saturday evening May 17th (coincidentally Norway's constitution day, double celebration!) and the office was packed with people milling about doing their thing. Eventually we were all watching this gigantic screen showing the number of players logged in, and as the servers opened we saw the number sky rocket. It was amazing, and I can assure you that there were lots of champagne! We are very happy about the fact that everything went relatively smooth and that the launch was a big success. But... what's this sleep you speak of?
