Lol... How much money someone spends on a product doesn't really determine it's quality. I'm also guessing by your post that you've never played Aion or given it a chance for that matter.


 

Are you serious?! How much money has our government put into healthcare, education, poverty, war on drugs, counter-terrorism and look at just how effective those have been! money is power!!!!11

 Please tell me your joking...

He is right somewhat.  SOMETIMES how much money you put into anything can have a positive outcome, but it can very much go the opposite.  WoW has the money to put into the game, but because of all the content they've been putting in they've strayed away from their lore which has drawn away some people. 

For how long WoW has been out, it can't really draw in anymore people than it already has.  Even if they throw millions of dollars in to their product I doubt it'll have a positive outcome.

Look at all the other games that has come out by companies that have a decent amount of cash flow and they still have failures.  Those games do so bad that the companies try to put even MORE money into their product.  Just look at all the hate towards LFD2.

Then again this is just my opinion.

Everyone has opinions, but does that make them the universal truth??? NO!

Now ask yourself:

How many times have i been a part of a large scale pvp battle with 60+ players to take fortresses? Is something like that fun? (yes)

Why is this grind getting complaints from people who have only played 1 other MMO, which is most likely WoW?

 

if you dont like some grind/hard work to get to the better parts of a game, dont play mmo's. WoW ruined the accomplishment of getting to the end level, and the proof to that is most people that have played for a while have not 1, not 2, but 3+ max level characters. to me that just shows that its easy to get the the ENDGAME GRIND THAT IS WOW.


 

I think you made an error with the large scale pvp with 60+ players to take fortresses...

It happens in WOW all of the time, mostly with double those figures. And the fact WOW players have 2 or 3 max level characters only shows their will to want to play the game with different classes.

I can uderstand you defend your game. But at the moment WOW has about quadriple gaming options and ten times the content.

So the discussion (and this thread) is useless.


 

He was a little bit off with his numbers too. I was part of not 1 but 2 attemped fortress seiges were the asmo tried to take one the first time with around 400-500 people total, and then around 200 people the second time when the balaur took the fortress.

You said WOW has more gaming options well there you were right,but WOW has also had 5 years worth of add ons and exp., so again you are right it's a pointless conversation. If you want to truely compare both WOW and Aion then the only way to do it is after they are both no more that way it's an even comparison.

ummm...I think you need to be introduced with the OLD cliche:  "throwing good money after bad."

Nothing surprises me these days, luckily I am getting into the industry to create my own surprises.

I mean if you posted this in General I am sure the response would be very different. The fact that you posted this in the Aion forums means that you are going to get biased opinions dude. I personally picked Aion just cause I am completely burnt out on WoW.

I'm just not seeing how Aion will have many expansions...if any.  The game seems pretty generic and disposable.  It'll be hyped until GW2 is released, then it'll be tossed by the wayside.

WoW is much better actually. It has tons of content - be it PvE or PvP. And new content is added regularly.

Dark mind over dark matter!
