I heard Aion is supposed to be like FFXI in the way that most quest and leveling is done in a party father than soloing, is this true? (i hope so) |

The game highly encourages partying, it doesn't enforce doing so though. |

While there is a good deal of incentive to party in Aion soloing is still a viable option. Where as in FFXI, unless you were certain classes or of certain builds, soloing was a pipe dream. Depending on your outlook this can be a good or bad thing, I like not needing to group ALL the time to advance, that made FFXI grind to a halt at times. |

Honestly I enjoyed FFXI's incessant NEED for partying to progress in the game. |

Yeah thats what i enjoyed about FFXI too. I play wow now since my FFXI account got stolen. wow is fun but im looking forward to Aion because i heard it was more team oriented than wow. |

As I understood it, the goal was to have it so anyone can solo to the level cap, but there are quests that will require a group and grouping up for exp will be faster (and safer) than if you soloed. I also don't think the vast majority of the content that does need a group will need a full group |

It's like most other western MMOs. Yes this does include WoW. ~.^ Note: This is one of the selling points of Aion. A Korean MMO with western MMO features (content, less grind, mix of party/solo content, full crafting system, etc).

what about gameplay typpe? FFXI was a kind of a slower game, with cast times, higher delay attacks, where as wow is faster. i dont know how to put it exactly but those of you who have played FFXI know what im talking about. Where does Aion stand with that? |
