Pathetic and really not worth it... in my opinion, maybe I just didn't get to a high enough level :P

The client is probably the largest I've seen from an mmorpg.  Takes up over 20 gigs installed.

Because it's huge. You don't get really good graphics out of 100 mb installs.

You are playing a video game. By definition that means you are not hardcore.

Where are you downloading it at 100k from? The files from this site mmorpg.com were downloading for me the other day at 350k+. I was testing it for a poster that thought the links here were broken.

Course I don't know how much you would have to patch from the client here. The patcher for me downloads pretty fast.

Not much like SWG at all other than their role with player cities (that actually have a function in AOC) . Other than that crafting is more of a side note, it is there, just not nearly as complex or deep as SWG.

As for DX10 I found it rather decent looking, it must be pointed out it is only a test mode of 10, so there are bugs that come along with it.

Yeah it is activated, though they are attaching the term "test" to it as of now on live servers.

other than the annoyance of having to select dx10 on the launcher setting every time i log on, dx10 works just fine, be it a bit heavy on the rescources.

The game is huge, not only from the graphics and high quality textures but the loads of quests.  It felt very odd downloading aion at  just over 6 gigs.  You can tell the diffrence in lack of quests and low res textures....however some cool ambient effects in aion.

 

mabey you should try a comp restart then resume dl... or just do it overnight and though the morning.
