I am very disappointed in the number of dungeons in Aion. It seems to be a common problem that new MMO's all have. Warhammer and Age of Conan are two of the newer MMO's I have played that had a lack of dungeons to explore. Outdoor exploration is good and all but I really want an MMO (other than WoW) to have a large selection of different dungeons that you can explore from the early levels all the way up. I should not have to be half way to max level or above before I ever see a dungeon in a fantasy MMO. Maybe it is just me and everyone else hates them so the devs are just giving people what they want. What do you guys think?
Edited the title. I have no idea if Aion has many since I have only been in 1 beta weekend (lvl 15) and never saw one.

I have not played much of Warhammer Online (Oh how I wish the game had been better than it was) and I have not touched AoC at all. Though I have played Aion to level ten and enjoyed it very much. I think that some games are leaving dungeons out to save on development time and resources. I believe that Aion is releasing many new dungeons for the lowbies with their next patch. I love dungeons and raids. That is why I play, to conquer new bosses and explore new lore. However, I do wish some games could make the dungeons more about the dungeons themselves, rather than making them a side show to the loot (I am speaking mostly about WoW here). I mainly play WoW atm and though I love running dungeons/raids, it is mainly to test myself against the dungeons and my fellow raiders and to progress my characters' gear and such. It can be fun to min/max a character. I would like to see dungeons that people go through just to go through them. Maybe have a chance at a cool item and give extra XP maybe, but I would like to see more of a focus on the dungeons themselves and see more dungeons in the newer games as well.

Played:WOW, FFXI
Way to make an account just to troll or whatever the hell it is you're doing.
Do some reasearch. There are 20-something dungeons in Aion and at least most of the new ones that we'll be seeing when the game goes live are unlike any other instanced dungeons.
DDO, all dungeons, all the time.
could u list those early instances?
What dungeon? Aion had dungeons? I played 1-25 and did not see a single dungeon (Maybe I was no in the right zone?). I didn't know Aion was suppose to have dungeons either. I was just testing the game.
Abyss was fun though.
What a fail thread. Do some research. There are dungeons in Aion, been in since 1.0
Cheers!
Edit: Referring to your misleading title btw...

I am not trying to be a troll or overly harsh to Aion. I read these forums a lot but I have never posted here. I pre-ordered Aion and plan to play it at least for 1 month. There are many things I like about Aion but it is a gripe of mine that it didn't include dungeons (or at least enough dungeons that I could see one in the first 15 lvls). If there are dungeons by all means please tell us what lvls you can get to them and where they are. I never saw one.
Just read an article in PC Gamer about an end game dungeon NCsoft allowed them to run. Aion is extremely polished and finished, it has nothing to do but receive even more polish and content before release. It will be released in a condition that all games should be released in. Guess the trolls just need to learn to live with it.
Well it would make me feel better to know there are some really cool dungeons in Aion. With the great graphics engine and art I would think they would look awesome. Has anyone on these forums been into a dungeon in Aion? Can you tell us even a little about it?
