Other than the 3rd faction in the abyss (if its AI is even any good which i doubt, otherwise its just normal mobs) the game really offers nothing that hasn't been done before, flying combat is in Perfect world, though maybe not as good but it is there. To me Aion is just another world of warcraft rip off, that looks better, and OH as a added bonus you get a korean grind to it too! Yippie.. NOT. Aion is far FAR too overhyped for how unimpressive it is when I tried it on my friends beta acct.I hate how they dubbed the voices, I bet its horrid :P. Mmorpg devs need to get it into their heads that good graphics but poor gameplay still makes a piss poor game no matter how pretty it is.
No there is nothing really new in Aion but it is fairly polished and runs very well while having decent graphics. Now before people jump on me for saying just decent I include the whole package in there. The characters themselves are outstanding. A lot of the buildings are very well done. However the ground and backdrop textures are WoW like. Guild Wars has better environment textures than Aion does but I think it's a fair trade off for how well it runs.
decent graphics? lol do the graphics look better or something when you have squinty eyes?
the game is fairly polished because it's simple as hell... it's hard to mess up a game like that
i dunno there aren't that many games that try to innovate any more
its like you people have never heard the phrase, "If it isnt broken, dont fix it"
Aion takes what works, and makes it better, why do people need more then that, and why is it, that going that route isnt concidered enough for most gamers?
If you read through Aion and dont liek it, dont play it. Simple as that.

aion doesn't make anything better it just the same old mob grind over and over
But mostly alot of similarity in gameplay to other mmos...with of course a very apparent NCSoft feel, which if you enjoy their other titles you will enjoy it.
Fun but not enough to hold me for next years titles I'm waiting on borderlands or various non-mmo titles more

The third party faction is new, and pretty cool idea.
That's about all I can think of really. I do like the graphics.
Yeah, it's a great idea.....it was amazing when DAoC did it 8 years ago...

What is a step forward?

Prettier PVP and Fun aerial mechanics...
