    LOL here comes all the QQing about the grind. I really glad to see ppl max lvl after a few weeks out. Goes to show all those QQer's that there very little grind in this game. And now that they upped the xp for quest will see lots more max ppl out there in the abyss. Game on !

    Played Aoc/DDO/FFXI/WAR / LoTRo / CO / Aion
    Playing Rift

    Waiting for FFXIV to be the game it should. so sad =(

    The only people that will be level 50 this soon are the ones who have played 24/7 since the headstart. 

    Aion is nothing but grind.

    Max level in 2 weeks.

    old EQ players and the like would think this a joke. Yet another proof that people complaining about the insane, unending exp grind have no other 'grindy' game to compare to.

    Wow, even when you show someone the light, they can still have the ignorance to call it a bowl of soup. Doesn't make sense to me. Seeing as how there are max lvl people already in this game, it shouldn't make sense to anyone else who says there is to much grind.

    How does this make the game not a grind? it's still a game that turns your brain off in PvE, a short grind is still a grind. (wich it might not be we have no clue how many hours these 2 have been playing each day and if they used glitchs/bots to achieve their goals.)

    I'm LOL'ing at anyone who thinks a single person played each character.

    Name one AAA game with no "Grind" . Killing x mobs for x quest is that a grind ?? True they may have used bots/ 3rd party tools or maybe they spent 24/7 playing ??? How fast can you max in WoW ? LoTRO ? FFXI ? AoC ? days weeks ??? These games have no " Grind" either ????

    Grinding is present in every RPG (or so, some exceptions) but how you deal with it will make it seem like it's not a grind, creating a deep combat or a good story will help immensly in this case, but Aion has neither making it a true mindless grind.

  • MoretrinketsMoretrinkets Member Posts: 730

    why only 2 and not 500? It seems to me this game is another grinder as any other MMO. Obviously those 2 players have a lot of time to play.  Thats all folks. Even a caveman can do it.

    I did and even tried to like it, I had friends playing as well wich was the only thing that made the experience bare-able. What part of Aions story is not an under-develop excuse to have angels fight each other? what part of Aions combat is not face rolling at it's worse?

    Grind doesn't mean it will take longer to level to max lvl, it just means that you will have to do the same task over and over to level. You see when you don't have enough quest within your level range and you have to go out just killing mobs to get xp, that is a grind. It as nothing to do with the fact that some people did it within few weeks. WAR was the same at launch, they didn't have enough quest to lvl and after couple weeks, there was already some lvl 40.

    So don't call that the light, trying to convince yourself that because there is already 2 lvl 50 that it's not a grind. You sound like someone in a cult, can we have some of your coolaid?

    Get a life you freaking Gamer.....no no, you don't understand, I'm a Gamer, I have many lives!!

    Why are people even debating this??? Who cares if this game is a grind or that game is a grind...the whole industry has become a big box of shit... Until a company comes out with true story driven system that is 100% sandbox...were all in the same shitty failboat.

    I agree with this guy.  All mmos have some kind of grind but Aion is just a mindless, brain numbing grind.

    I don't think Aion is a grind but they should really see how many hours it took them to get to leve 50. For all we know they could be playing 10 hours a day.

    Even in the good ol' days there were a few CRAZY players who managed to hit level cap in the first few weeks (or days depending on the game). This is nothing new.

  • Markn12Markn12 Member Posts: 222

    You cant compare how fast it takes to  level from 1-20  to 50.  What i mean is its ALOT faster from 1-20 in every sense  example would be 28 to 29 is like 4 mil xp while 32-33 is 8 mil ish and it gets even worse the XP curve is insane it can take you 12 mil to do 34-35 but 17 mil to do 36 to 37 and 20 + for 37-38 .   Id imagine 49-50 has to be near 50 mil xp probably more.

    keyword FEW.  lots more now.  Its  like a competition to see who can reach max level, get the sweetest gear or is good at end game stuff.  These games come with lore and a lot of the younger gamers seem to lose sight of that.  Some of these games have crappy lore but different strokes for different folks.
