So wait... Judging by your avatar and weapons mentioned in your post, you're into medieval crap. Fair enough. So let me see if I understand this right; You want a game, where there is an alien race, that after a predetermined series of events, becomes a winged higher elite race, whom all live in the shattered inner remains of an exploded planet...they should all have crap that looks like it came out of the dark ages of Europe. Where everything was foot soldiers and mounted horse combat. Right? So...you think that'd make sense? Aion doesn't take place on Earth. Not sure if you're aware of that. But I wouldn't be interested in it if it were just another high-fantasy game...which is what you're apparently looking for.
The game is great. Just because you don't like the armor and weapon designs doesn't mean u get to speak for the entire "Westerners" lol?
I live in the US and happen to enjoy the FANTASY that is in FANTASY GAMES. Maybe you should try another mmo instead of complaining about this one? Where does complaining get you anyway? If I don't like a game a just don't play it or comment on it. I MOVE ON.
I want to have a huge weapon and flashy animations because otherwise mmo's combat to me is just BORING.
Jesus, Aoc comes out with more realistic but drab armor and weapons and all I here is the bitching that it's too plain...Now this?
AoC would be amazing [ again in my opinion ] if it wasnt so dam buggy and with a control system requiring 3 hands :]
On the other side.. Aion with Aoc looks would prolly be pretty amazing. Aion doesnt seem to be buggy, seems to run a solid easy to control game engine aswel.
I played LoTRO for a while and I hated how every weapon, even the legendary ones, looked so shitty and uninspired (yes, I'm aware of the lore limitations, you lore-nazis). I prefer the more epic/impressive art style for weapons/gear, especailly the higher level ones. If I cared about things like weight distribution and realism I'd probably put down the game and go outside.
Personal taste. I find the traditional style gets quite boring after awhile.
Velika: City of Wheels: Among the mortal races, the humans were the only one that never built cities or great empires; a curse laid upon them by their creator, Gidd, forced them to wander as nomads for twenty centuries...
It really is all about personal taste. Take a look at many of the eastern MMO's. Compared to them, Aions weapons are small and already westernized lol. Now, if you want to complain about graphics, Go look at Champions Online. That is the very first game ever, for me, that graphics style forced me to never play it again. I am all for a cartoon look, but that is by far the worst style I have ever saw in my life. I still thank the gods that I didn't buy that lifetime membership and I feel for those that did.

That says it all. End the thread already.

Agreed, infact the whole game looks like junk for a 2009 game.
Trolls = Hardcore
Fanbois = Carebears
The only posts I read in threads are my own.
