      FIfty dollars..Could of bought a ticket to Magic Mountain,taken the old lady out to Outback ,bought some more rufies to slip to that hawt chick at the local clubERRRRRRRRR, you get the point..

I would of gladly paid a bit more for this game.Fkng awesome. Im having  a  hell of a time in this game. In OB and CB, I never got past level 11.Now that im  almost twenty,the fun has gone thru the roof. And I havent even hit the ABYSS yet.

Not sure why a FEW people are saying its a grind. In all honesty,its just like any other MMO.,yes folks,just like WoW..No better,no worse. Quick point,if you feel that its a grind, I say you shouldnt perhaps be playing MMOs these days.

To the people that are experiencing server log in waits,better this then another WAR situation with ghost towns etc..Think about it for a minute.Id rather wait an hour or whatever then put up with barren wastelands. And by the way,instead of logging out,why dont you few morons who are complaining about the log in time just open a goddamn player store like everyone else to stay in game? Cant believe the idiocy of these gamers.

Anyway,back to the point, I would of gladly paid a bit more to obtain this game. Having a fkng GREAT time,and cant wait for pvp...

You answered your own question. It's nothing new and a merge of Lineage 2 + WoW. AKA: Crap on a stick.

 

I'm glad you're having fun with it, truly I am. However, don't expect to change any opinions as the game is NOT innovative nor original.

Just as you should not expect to change any opinions of those that do enjoy the game.  Interesting how that works.  People are either going to play it if they enjoy playing it, or won't play it if they don't.

So avoiding the obvious troll posts, I am glad your enjoying your time in Aion OP. I agree that the game is alot of fun, however I would not have paid more money for this lol. Id rather pay as less as possible just because I like saving money when I can LOL.

Let's reskin the same old BS and call it an expansion. I love how people (not saying you) will say this game or that game feels just like WoW, yet will hop on the next expansion that really isn't much of one.

Sorry but when I play aion I don't see anything that is similar to wow (have no idea on lineage never played it) unless you mean for the environment even though doesn't look much similar.

Not to add more fuel to the troll fire...but the reason people are calling this game grindy you havent seen yet.  The real grind comes from end game.

 

You will grind the same mobs over and over to get the "uber rare" set pieces...you will also grind PvP points very similar to renown farming in Warhammer.....there is even citadel swaping for extra points very similar to the Keep Circle jerk that occured in Warhammer.

 

So Unfortunetly....you havent seen the real grind of this game yet.  The game IS fun until that point just like Warhammer was in my opinion....problem is it hits the toilet quickly at that point. :(

 

Again...not trying to convince anyone to NOT play and find out for themselves, especially since there is nothing else out there....but just wanted to clear up the reason people are calling the game a "grind"

I'm not a huge fan of Aion, I find it a Cookie Cutter Game, but I don’t see where you get its like L2. I don't agree with that comparison what so ever.

What about doing same dungeons for 2 years straight? How is that any different? Not sure where you are going with the keep swapping like WAR seeing as only few are open at a time and if capped they are locked for I think it's 24 hours? It's not all open like in WAR..so..I just don't see it. Have you actualyl experienced raiding and all that out of curiosity? You can't take 1-2 examples and just run with it. If you are talking about grinding in the Abyss, what's the problem? You have the risk of getting ganked, doing PvP, etc. Grind a little, find some PvP, come back. Better then doing same dungeons over and over and it doesnt seem broken like WAR's system was. I just don't know how you do Keep swaps when they are random keeps at random times. . .

I understand it is not the matter of money but it makes you feel so stupid to spend that money because people already told you something, however, you still wanted to hear the good thing you ears like to hear. And your brain only thought about KO other players or sneak attack other players.

It's possible but the price is way too much until your dream come true. You finally realized that Koreans are all hard workers as well as their games are designed for hard workers too.

Well Aion is as vanilla as you can possibly get for a mmo. If you thought something was going to magically appear in Aion that you haven't seen before because you paid $50.00 then you were delusional.

At this point I really feel I have no common point of reference with you at all, lol... for some reason I read the rest of your post...


In all honesty,its just like any other MMO.,yes folks,just like WoW..No better,no worse.

Most sane people at MMORPG.com have been saying this for quite some time. Note the entire thread dedicated to "I'm just playing Aion until something comes out, because I'm bored..."

That is just my opion and we all know what THAT is good for!

Personally I am not going to play this game.  However, I am not going to bash it because other people like it and want to play it.

 

I do not know what happened to MMORPG.com as of late.  Seems like everyone just wants to jump on the Your an idiot or fanboi bandwagon.  If you like a game and want to post that you do, more power to you.

 

If you do not have anything good to say, why bother beating someone up for it?  unless it is to correct something like it Has Free Sechks or something like that.

Say hello, To the things you've left behind. They are more a part of your life now that you can't touch them.
