One thing i hope they do not do is make the grind so easy like its is in wow I hope they balance it out like eastern and western style and include lvling in that factor, I personaly would like the grind to be like 20% less then what it is in L2 and make it harder to lvl up the higher you get in lvl,
Why would they even change the anime-style of characters? this is AION. For western Type graphics, u have plenty of options around the corner, if u are not confortable with anime characters, u must know that, AION IS NOT for you, really, not being agressive or anything , but if you dislike the anime-like characters of Aion, you will never be able to like the game itself. (as it is based on fantasy more than anything)
WoW has Cartoonish Graphics - Me hates AoC has kinda very Real graphics - Me hates Aion is Fantasy/Anime type graphics, and honestly, that's what me, and alot more people are looking for ! Really, when i play a game, i wish the graphics are not real life copies, it makes the game look dull, and 2 much realistic, atleast i have some difficulty in being immerse in a non-fantasy type game.
Its funny because they using the anime style art on thier characters but the characters also look so real but still you get people that complain.
I just pray they change the anime looking character models for the western version, really cant stand at looking at anime characters. other than that game looks perfect.
I wouldn't count on radical changes, anyways, the customization system has a really wide range, maybe you want to check this as an example of possibilities in the customization engine.
if you're expecting cavemen, gandalf tunics and tarzan armors, this isn't that game. Aion is high-fantasy.
Very nice screenshots, thanks for posting. Game is looking good from what I have seen so far, looks like NCsoft may just get me back as a subscriber.
Out of every 100 men, 10 should not be there, 80 are nothing but targets, 9 are the real fighters. Ah, but one, ONE of them is a warrior, and he will bring the others home. -Heraclitus 500BC

I couldn't agree with you more. Yes, you can make your character look pretty anime-esque if you wanted, but from everything I've seen so far, you can make a character look as far from it as possible. Hell, I saw a screenshot of a guys character on a Korean website that he made look almost exactly like Hugh Jackman as Wolverine from the X-Men movies.

Yeah I also saw it, it was part of the "design your character" contest in the korean aion's website, it was awesome. Also there were some other "RL photo+character photo" and the similarities were incredible in all of those cases.

Wow nice !!! I hope the game play holds up to the beta feedback provided by the OP and the graphics in those pics!
If it's as fun as WoW was if not more so then this game has a good future. Hopefully pvp will be a whole lot meaningful then it was in WoW. I also hope the world is not overly instanced ala EQ2, Guild Wars, or AoC. I want to be able to roam freely with minimal to no loading screens.
Between Aion, War, and Spellborn I don't know if I am going to have a easy time choosing between these new MMO's. If they all hold true to their promises it's going to be hard making a single choice. I've been looking for a high fantasy game for a long time with the great visuals and animation found in Asian MMO's but without the horrid grind or lifeless world. Gogogogogo AION and break the stereotype plz.
Games I've played/tried out:WAR, LOTRO, Tabula Rasa, AoC, EQ1, EQ2, WoW, Vangaurd, FFXI, D&DO, Lineage 2, Saga Of Ryzom, EvE Online, DAoC, Guild Wars,Star Wars Galaxies, Hell Gate London, Auto Assault, Grando Espada ( AKA SoTNW ), Archlord, CoV/H, Star Trek Online, APB, Champions Online, FFXIV, Rift Online, GW2.
