 I think the title pretty much says it all.

I'm just curious with all the talk of 300k sold. How many of these were because people wanted to try the beta and now that they did, how many of those 300k are canceling? 

Yes, I'm one that canceled. For me it didn't bring much new to the table and actually felt like a lot of the f2p games I've tried. But that is what I feel, not bashing you if you like it. Just curious how many canceled their order?

I didnt play the beta much, but I intend to keep my preorder.  Not that the game is THAT good, I have only played up to level 10 on a few characters.  But I am just bored as shit so ill play.

The number just went up to 400,000, so 300,000 is old news here.   You are just asking to be called "Troll".

Never pre-ordered, nor plan to play it again anytime soon...gonna give it 6mo or more and see how it does!  I don't hate it, but it also does nothing new and feels like I've played it before!  Also the forced PvP after lvl 40 is disappointing...

I'll be playing it on my pre-order. Not sure why so many are still faulting Aion for stuff they could never have experienced, oh well, to each their own I guess.

Keeping mine because frankly theres nothing better out there. I mean if you want a good PVE game just play WoW or LOTRO. This fills the gap with a good pvp focused game.

when WOW came out, I believed a lot people were saying the same thing:  It's horrible, too cratooish, Nothing new!!!  I was one of them, I didn't play WOW until later Mid 2005, but I didn't play long (4 months).  WOW isn't a bad game, and it gave me a few months of entertainment which I needed it.  Aion is the same, it's a solid and old fashion MMO, it's not that great but it's not that bad.  Most of people will play like me just because nothing is good in the market.  Don't tell me to go to play EVE, I would rather go to be a REAL MINER then mine fake rock in the space.  Next year comes will be a different story, FFXIV, SW: TRO, STO and etc, then that will be the time to judge if Aion can hold on to all the players and stay strong or shirk to a small population like AOC or War with a few servers.

 

So, no need to be a troll  and bash the game.  What's the point of asking this kind of question in the forum if your intention is just going to flame the forum.

I cancelled my Steam pre-order awhile ago, although NCsoft still show me as having a CE account.

OMG get over it its not force,, I don't see a gun to your head!!!! just say you don't like pvp at that magnitude and I will say, I understand, pvp isnt for all... Its a pvpve not  a pvepvp like wow. JJust go to a pve back to pve like DAoC wow FF XI, ect. I could say I dont Like Forced PVE!!!

I guess you are right on the destinction there, mine isnt' a pre-order either - it's a pre-purchase a month ago. All four of them actually, payed for in full. (I pre-purchased for a couple friends that are moving to Aion with me.) Wouldn't cancel mine even if I had the option still.

I gave a couple of reasons on what I thought. So if you don't agree with me your trolling? Grow up. I said if you liked it great. I was just curious on how many are actually canceling.
