WoW is Everquest but dummied down for casual players and cartoon graphics. Aion is a gorgeous game that offers an alternative to wow and hopefully with a better community and a bit more challenge.
I read post just as above just before WAR was released, AOC, Darkfall ... you name it. 1.5 is not new content its content thats been in the game for a long time, Aion is simply being patched to the current version. Besides Id take quality over quantity any time. All PvP in wow instanced? nope... and I know you know that too. As to people leaving in droves.. believe what you like. Your a very angry little boy (or atleast you come across as one) I pity one one you'll come in contact with in AION. Enjoy your undercooked badly seasoned lobster.. ill enjoy my happy meal.
This is not true. 1.5 is not even live in korea at the moment. It's on their test servers. 1.5 content is very new and, in my opinion, nicely done. An instance where both factions enter an instance to fight each other for the right to kill the last boss who then drops loot based on how little they've died? Sounds pretty exciting to me.
I for one am happy that people are leaving WOW. I use to play it from early 2005-2009 but I couldnt do it anymore. The expansions killed it for me. I loved WOW before BC was released. With 11 million people playing the game at one time you would think Blizzard would reward their customers but no they still charge for little things ingame that should be free. They brag about the amount of subscribers they have but truth be told that 6-7 million of them are asian gold farmers and they know this but do nothing about it. Instead of banning their account they use those numbers as marketing. Other games like COX n LOTRO reward their players with free ingame items and discount prices on the subscribtion fee. As old as WOW is and the amount of people still playing would it be hard for Blizzard to lower the monthly prices to atleast $9.99 and I know they say "Well if you subscribe to a 6 month plan you would get a $2 or $3 dollar discount monthly. I for one dont like doing long term plans. I really hope Aion or SWToR bring down WOW's subcribtion numbers by larger amounts.
The asian subscription base isnt farmers. They play on servers in asia. Gold farmers that we encounter take up subscription numbers in the US and Europe. I don't doubt that a high volume of them are gold farmers, but to say the entire 6 million player base in asia is gold farmers, is stereotyping and totally inappropriate.

Apparently about 98% of the people on this thread have absolutely NO clue about the fact that the chinese servers where completely shut down for a couple months. DESPITE the very intelligent people mentioning this fact RIGHT under the OP's statement.
Epic Fail
Although I quit WoW along time ago and no longer see myself as liking it. I don't want it to do bad because WoW also provides funding for awsome games like diablo 3 which I will deffinently be playing. Also I love blizzard because when they started the mountain dew campaign, I was able to get FREE mountain dew at my local monster truck rally. How sweet is that.

Sorry dude, Aion won't be harder or more balanced than WoW, not in the near future.
WoW may have cartoon-like graphics and problems all its own..but most of the content is very polished and various play-styles ...(solo.....group..pve ..pvp..battlegrounds ...arenas...raids) ...allow for anyone to change up their routine to alleviate boredom. I played AION for a few weeks...I know..some will say that is not enough time to make a judgment...I disagree...it was boring for 2 weeks and I just could not play it anymore. Beautiful avatars but the pastel colored ,lifeless environments looked like you were running around a poorly rendered matte painting. Aion just seems like a big turd ..all dressed up in a shiny new suit....and what good are wings when they are clipped most of the time? Just my opinion.

One thing's for sure, WoW fans here seem to be easily trolled.

Apparently it requires further flogging. I am surprised that horse has anything left...

And I can say this as a fact.
