GamesIndustry.biz has word that Funcom is closing more than half the servers for Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures, saying the fantasy themed MMORPG's 49 servers will ultimately be consolidated into 18 servers. They outline how the servers will be merged, pointing out that this is an indicator of how much attrition the game's population has suffered following its launch, but that this should provide a better game experience for remaining players, who should find servers more densely populated.
