?? But they already revealed the DirectX 10 features last year, didn't they? I understand they had to leave them out of the game at first but, if they just optimized them some and got the features working, why would they limit a demo to the press only?

Hype hype…

Well Conan's graphics are certainly impressive if you have a comp that can run it, especially the outdoor areas and that's most of the landmass. If you're part of the mass of floating mmo'ers it's not going to offer you much you haven't seen already, at least, that's what I concluded on upto level 50 or so.
