ALRIGHT! LET'S GO!

You boys know the rules. Watch your low blows, kidney punches, rabbit punches. In case of a knockdown, you go to the corner I tell you... and you stay there until I tell you to come out. Shake hands and let's have a good fight!
 

It's Cartoons vs Barbies! It's West against East! It's Blondie vs Violet!

So who are you going to LOVE NOW? And more importantly WHY?

WoW is old and sagging badly, and Aion looks hot, but is too high-maintenence.

Im going with Aion

  1. PvP focus, as opposed to pve focus
  2. Skill based pvp very close to DAOC levels, where fewer #'s can kill > numbers if they play well, thus allowing people to counter zerging.
  3. Better crafting system
  4. Better immersion, now, this one is a small one, but its still cool. When it rains, your toons react by covering their heads, when you are hunting in the desert they fan themselves, etc etc. Small but cool regardless.
  5. Better graphics
  6. Hotter women
  7. Better flying implementation
  8. Flying combat
  9. New crafting implementation that allows you to more or less do work for the npc's at an extremely lower cost to you, but you still skill up <-- genius
  10. Instanced early level zones, so if my quest area is camped heavily in zone one, I can move to zone 2 to finish my queting with out having to get in a fight with a ksing 10 year old
  11. Amazing combat effects, the skill animations are gorgeous
  12. Item upgrades with +1 - +10
  13. Crafting has a purpose (see #12)
  14. Rifts, offering non-consentual pvp in a way most folks can stomach it
  15. Castles to fight over with a reason, similar to that of DAOC in direct contrast to that of WAR

Think that about sums it up for me.

Aion isn't fantastic, but it's still light years ahead of WoW. Much better crafting, much better PvP, much better combat systems (combos alone would do it). It's just a better game, hands down. Still not "revolutionary" like I keep hearing people say it is, but much better than WoW.

EDIT: I meant to say something about how Aion has better boobs too. Of course, the cartoony style of WoW, again, loses by default.

Having shiny green eyes, huge spiky ears and read/orange hair clearly beats dark blue hair, an amazingly dumb expression and a horrible haircut.

Does Aion have an item mall?

This.. ^^

 

and to the OP - Aion is by far the best MMO I've played since when I first started WoW 5 years ago.... Fantastic game, I just wish it wasn't so far away :( 30 more days... /shrug

It's a dumb question, and the scales are balanced towards Aion. I am not fan of WoW but you are talking about a engine that is..I dunno 5-6 years old? Of course ion looks better but will it stand the test of time? That is the real question.

Of course Aion boobs win.

Not many MMO's you can make a short person with big boobs.

The Aion graphics are better of course, but i love that type of art style. Unfortunately the graphics were not enough to sell me on the game. WOW is getting a bit long in the tooth and Aion is relatively new. After five years we can compare Aion graphics to the graphics of  the next WOW killer what ever it may be.

It has to be true, i have internet links.

Oh god, Aion is in the lead by far! INC Zorndorf and Coffee proxying their IP so many times that they can put WoW back in the lead. I could see it.

As fresh and new as Aion FEELS now, I don't personally think it can compare to WoW at this point.

World of Warcraft just has massive amounts more content than Aion will be able to match for years. As soon as people have played through to the end game and see just how much less content there is, lots of them will probably end up going back to WOW.

I also found that the grind and lack of class customization (in terms of different specs) in Aion simply cannot compare with WoW. There is a much smaller degree to which you can change your playstyle as far as I can tell. Think of all the ways you can do that in WoW. There's the talent trees, enchantments, gems, glyphs. It seems to me that Aion has far fewer choices for specialization... but perhaps I have just not played long enough.

Personally I expect people to switch over to Aion in large numbers in the short term. But once WoW's new expansion hits the shelves, I forsee them going right back.

Aion for the following

: Wow had VERY dated looking gfx at "Release" for it's time. while aion has "Above average gfx at release"

: Wow looks like a cartoon, i don't hate it but it's not my favorite. AIon doesn't look like real life, and is stylized, but very not cartoony.

: Aion will have better PVP, even with blizz trying to make more open PVP with rapture FINALLY.

: First MMO i've played where wings where not useless fluff. Perfect world has shit on this, wings in PW are fluff. And Wow doesn't have them at all

: Aion plans player housing, if done right this will be awsome. Wow has never had housing and with the type of game it is, it never will.

: Armor and weapons are a million times more badass. Only a very select few WoW items come close.

Some people only talk sh!t online. I'll talk sh!t online and i'll say it to your face.
