Age of Conan dancing (Cimmerian)

[neilpete]

dude the cimmerians have the coolest dance in aoc. stygian dance is so boring:(

[Praaga96]

that is a norwegian dance!! (Halling dans) :D

[acidheadx]

I hope sooner or later they'll make it so you can learn other race dances

[enkopingsbo]

you can fall of tables and cliffs as well ;O imy chimmerian danced next to the river and i sliped and fel in

[boms]

this is a old norwegian dance called ''hallingdans'' (hallingdance) which was motion captured by a man called Halgrim, which danced the dance, they made this dance for the ''cimmerian'' cos they are similar to the ''vikings''

[emilnyb]

nope. Cimmerians are not similar to Vikings, they are similar to the Scots and those of Britannia more. The Aesir of Robert E. Howard's imagination are supposed to resemble the Vikings, not the Cimmerians. They simply thought the dance fit quite well with the nature of that kind, that is all ;)

[bluballzzz]

@emilnyb they come from the balkins

[Nortrix87]

@emilnyb In this world the Vanir are simmilar to the vikings, cimmerians to scots. But as you don`t play as Vanir, the cimmerians got the dance.

[xatikinxx]

dance combos ftw!. now that is inovation :P

[emilnyb]

yeah, but I'd wish they were a bit more fast-passed with the dance combos, for instance the Stygians have a very slow and boring dance :(

[aasmund1993]

u need to be very flexible, this is hard to learn, i have danced Lausdans in 7-8 years, and it is very many different moves to learn.

[Prohunter93]

u must be strong in your feet to do that dance xD

[arkon123]

Cool to see it in-game after seeing on TV how they recorded it with censors on the Norwegian Halling-dancer. Impressive moves.

[CreatureGam3r]

lol nice dans:D

[kennet90]

press in Alt and hold that down then press (Z)

[mrh3nrik]

Actually this is not capoeira or irish jig, it's a norwegian traditional dance called "halling" ; )

[neilpete]

@mrh3nrik yeah because what i find to be funny about aoc is that you can tell what culture in the real world a race in aoc is by looking at his name and dances, and listening to his accent. like for instance cimmerians are a norse race and prefer names like bockhath or torag, stygians are an egyptian race and prefer names like faruuq or nasi, aquilonians are a russian race and prefer names like sergei and malak, and khitans are a chinese race and prefer names like mako, or ping.

[wolfmann31]

So they added the norwegian "halling dans"..Big deal! heeh.. Thats a real first in the computer gaming world! W00t

[Naroos]

Hallingdansen ftw

[dougpecklord]

god them burps every 5seconds get annoying :P

[megamarsvin]

yep don't stand next to a drunk guy in the taverns -_-"

[M0rphin]

I detect some Capoeira in those moves? :O

[PatriotRonin]

Thats awsome. I like how they mixed the Irish jig in with break dancing type moves.
