That's not my impression at all. When I saw the rules for mobs, my very first thought was, "No more taking huge crowds of mooks for granted." While there are problems with the implementation, I think mobs do what they're supposed to do ... threaten even powerful characters with fire and pitchforks and tar and feathering. The very last thing they're supposed to do is make PCs feel like Conan ... unless you mean those times even Conan ran from mobs.
