Aion.. the best ONE thing about it...

apocalanceapocalance Member UncommonPosts: 1,073
in Aion

If you could only tell a friend one aspect of Aion in order to convince them to give it a shot, what would that one aspect be?

Keep in mind, saying "it's better than..." doesn't qualify as that simply an opinion. What you want to do here is sell them on the game by merely mentioning one aspect of the game that makes it stand out from the crowd.

I understand that there may be many things about Aion that make you want to play it, but what I'm looking for is the one thing that makes you most look forward to, that you think others might also be interested in.

This is just a sampling, so please don't think I believe that it can or can't be sold on one aspect, just trying to see what the one coolest thing is to you.

:)

so...

     The PvP with the Abyss Point system working like bounties.

    Rewards those that play efficiently rather than those that can be online 24/7 for killing. Because that extra hour of gameplay may cost you a death and a hit on your AP at higher ranks that may take you hours or days to recover.

    OPEN world PvP - anything can and will happen, none of this generic instanced pvp like some other games.

    Open World PvP with bounty reward system.

    No other game out there has a system like this on the scale Aion has. WoW opted for a more instanced PvP approach so this should be the real difference on whether or not you play WoW or Aion. Lineage 2 had the open world pvp concept down but it also had a tremendous grind.

    You mean none other has had this but DAOC's which is still vastly supperior.

    I'm talking about games released say... in the last 6 years? Are you suggesting new players to start playing DAOC over Aion?

    Ok, so "it's fun" or "pvp..." hmm.. Unfortunately that won't sell my friends. I'll just have to try to get them to try the open beta if/when that occurs.

    Thanks for your responses.

    so...
