I don't understand the hype of this game...
...I don't get it...it looks like just another high fantasy/wow-like interface, asian grinding mmo...boring. It doesn't seem to have anything new to offer, same old mmo story different game, I don't think it will have the longevity to make it an mmo success. I may be biased though, I'm tired of all these fantasy mmos, moved on to the sci-fi plane.

A "This isn't my type of game so it will probably fail" post. Now there's a surprise.
- RPG Quiz - can you get all 25 right?
- FPS Quiz - how well do you know your shooters?
Have you even played the game yet or are you just going off what you see in screen shots and such?
I'm going to play it for its PvP action. I'm not a big fan of Fantasy, but that's what there's the most of currently, and I'd be playing something Sci-fi if something substantially good would freakin' come out (which it hasn't, yet). So until then, Aion is the next best thing to twinkies on the market currently.
"IRL is a pretty upstanding MMO with thousands of classes, a lot of PvP and even some pretty unique emotes and titles you can acquire. Explore that world first, then we'll talk about this virtual one."
Hehe it wasnt made for YOU
The following statement is false
The previous statement is true
Smelling FAIL here.
it has a rather refreshing story to tell you the truth. Plus there are no elfs or gnomes emphasis on the gnomes.
You can make your character smaller than the size of a gnome. :l
Emphasis on character size.

And u are upset because theres alot of ppl thinging diferent from you and hype the game?
I think your post answers your own questions/doubts/dislikes.
1. Another high......asian grinding....
2. Nothing new to offer.
3. Won't last.
4. Admitted bias
5. already decided to move on.
You may not get it but it's plain to us how you feel about the game. BTW, which game did you move on to?
and you can change ear size make your ears pointed like elf ears emphasis on "change ear size"
playing:Aion, shot online.
waiting for: Terra
Used to play:wow,EQ,EQ2,Rf Online, lineage II,Raganoke online.
Which Final Fantasy Character Are You?
Final Fantasy 7
and you can change ear size make your ears pointed like elf ears emphasis on "change ear size"
still not elfs
What I dont understand is why do they keep saying the game is going to fail just because they dont like it. If you dont like then go find something that you do like.
Its got good pvp and the artwork is really really good on par wtih Guild Wars? Maybe why. Personally I think it could get a 9.0 on mmorpg once all the reviews are in. I am serious.

Wow I dont care if aion lives or dies, but the fanbois for this game is freaking funny LOL!
You are absolutely correct.
I have to admit that I agree with the OP.
Aion felt like a F2P with better graphics and aggro mobs. I felt as if there was more grind than there was entertainment. Granted the people seemed to be a little more mature and English speaking than they would be in most other F2Ps.
I just think that everyone is trying so hard to replace WoW that they are pretty much willing to accept anything. Which would explain why Aion is getting so much attention. I'm still on the fence with this one.
I really don't ever remember thinking that Aion was at all Difficult or Challenging. Which is rather depressing.
Regardless.. For the same reason I bought WoW I may end up buying Aion. Just nothing else out there.
"Can't... Sleep... The Carebears... Will get... Their way..."
It's hyped, because it's a.) not WoW, and b.) because it's not complete and utter garbage, like the vaaaast majority of MMOs that have come out the past few years. It will be launching polished and playable, which is a hell of an accomplishment for this genre, apparently.
Katsma is Lithuanian for 'he who drinks used douche fluid'.
You got to level ten and quit, and don't know anything about the endgame.
That's fine.
But a lot of us are playing Aion because the game is very challenging for an MMO, isn't an asian grinder, and possesses a fantastic PvP focus.

If you're gonna troll at least man up and do it with your real account.
Hi, troll number <> I've encountered many times on these forums for the past year. Aion is upon us and there's nothing your hate (which is what I truly don't "get") or anyone else for that matter...can do.
Bye ^^
Lol fanbois get so defensive when you bash their game.
Trolls = Hardcore
Fanbois = Carebears
The only posts I read in threads are my own.
Lol trolls get so offensive when you stay in your favorite game's forums and post.
I wish NcSoft would have implemented public quest,from warhammer online.Regardless,nothing about this game is boring imo,maybe it's time to try a different type of game.
