Dude...That sig is made of win....And yeah, this whole game is giving me that same feeling FFXI gave me, that the world was actually alive...Idk why, but no other game has ever really been able to do that for me.
I still go back constantly just to walk around in Vana'diel, even though I never have the time to get anything done. I'm hoping Aion will provide me with the same feel, yet still fit my sometimes hectic schedule.
"Hell yeah, thats exactly what I said. It has the looks of FFXI with the Dynamics of World of Warcraft. This is why im so interested in this game. I still think FFXI was one of the best looking mmo's i've ever played. And from what I hear Square is in development to make another mmo. Let's hope it's not so friggin insanely difficult like FFXI was. Took me 6 months to get to level 55, that's just crazy hard. And don't get me started on Hyper Notorious Monsters."

"The worse thing about FFXI is that you couldn't solo anything. Basically if you didn't have a group, you weren't going to level. I don't like to solo, but sometimes it's just hard to find a group, so it's nice to be able to solo grind while you wait for a party. In FFXI it wasn't possible."
You both are wrong, yes FFXI was one of the best mmorpg's out there at time, but it was possible to solo no matter what class you were except a healing class, that is if you knew how to play and lvling wasn't that hard. You could solo until lvl 18 easy. I had a human warrior class which I transfered into paladin job class and lvled to lvl 42 in about a month, I had very good and active guild and got help with quest from other good ppl that played this game when it just came out. Also AION doesn't look anything like WoW yes it may have some concept of FFXI but nothing of WoW, graphicwise and gameplaywise this game is more advanced than WoW, especially since it's going to have full enviroment interaction. So yea this game will be one of the best mmorpg's when it comes out.
This game look really awsome but I hope this game is not too easy. I read it somewhere that you can quests to top level and I find it a little too easy?
Can anyone give me more information on Aion's PvP system? I love FFXI to death, but only a very small % play Ballista and it makes me very sad because I am MNK main and have geared/merrited my character just for PvP and usually the uncapped matches get cancelled on a regular basis, and this is very depressing to me.
The game looks great, I'm just curious about it's PvP content and what it entails exactly. I am due for a new game and want to PvP to be the main focus. As of right now it's between Aion and WAR, but the goldselling part of Asian mmorg's scares the shit out of me.

About the PvP it's like there will be a big zone called Abyss where both 2 factions can meet do PvP . Also Abyss is the zone where you can train yourself , make quests , sieges , and so on. Take a look at that FAQ and search for the PvP infos to understand better how it works.
Please note that Abyss will be revealed in the upcoming CBT 3 and then we will know more about it.

I'm a huge FFXI fan, and it's always been the best game i've ever played. I have played for around 5 years I think on and off which is unreal to me.
WoW on the other hand only held me for 3-4 weeks, and a lot of early reports make it seem like Aion is going to be closer to WoW than FFXI.
I hope more than anything that it's close to FFXI, and I can't wait for the next square mmo.
now old ffxi members....
look at my sig, its funny
