Nah a boring game is a boring game.

Goodbye!!!!

Don't let the doorknob hit ya on the way out!!!! 

OP was prolly Asmo.

Often times when people get out of their pants it's because something exciting is about to happen shortly, or maybe I am wrong.

I switched from Aion to Fallen Earth for the same reasons.  Aion is BORING.  Same old crap I've already played  100 times with "new" art, same old anime-ish style though.

Anyway, I'm so glad I made the jump.  Fallen Earth is a much deeper game with an amazing storyline, fabulous community and awesome originality.

Guys if you are bored of the same old re-hashed wow-cloned mmo's, give FE a try.  It's a huge breath of fresh air and probably the best mmo to come out in years.

"I switched from Aion to Fallen Earth for the same reasons."  -- If you say so.

Since FE has such a fab community, maybe you should spend more time there...with them...in that fab community.  Just an idea.

The game allso bore me tbh. It lags customisation options. The gear have boring stats; exactly the same area Age of Conan and Warhamer failed in at launch - the two former have gone far to get that right lately though, those games just dont have players. As a spellcaster in Aion you basicly just need 1 stat ( Why.....no...spellcrit!!??). I allso dislike the auto upgrade of spells. The same spell/abillity automatic gain abit dmg when leveling up, at least there could have been abit specialization. Basicly, they need to add more to the rpg part; theese games dont have a hell of alot more to offer then building up a class, at least get that part interesting. Oh, and more variation in combat imo.

 It should be so obvious.

Its RPG game: u build up a character - make that interesting. How do you build a character, by slaying thousands of mobs - make that interesting. Really simply tbh.

This game will be fine.  There will be plenty of people who like the PvP and the mechanics of the game.  Aion will be a successful niche game which is all it ever had a chance at being so good job, NcSoft.

 

 

I salute you for being realistic. Most fans rant about how huge the game will be. Its limitations wont hold the sandbox folks and its grindy nature will not hold the WOW/Lotr crowd. So you have the rest left over and they will love it. At least till Tera or L3 hits then we shall see if the somewhat limited nature of Aion in its current form holds subs and has long term western success. I will be interested to see the game mature.

I agree. No MMO is perfect.  Its pretty evident by the posts on this site.  We find what we like and we go with it.  

It is a boring game I ll agree with that. I m not sure what people see in it, but people like different things.

I guess if i was that bored i would have stopped playing too. I hope u find something else to play

hahahaha thats when the game really kicks in?

 

Yep, it starts to pick up grind. Probably something like 6-8 hours a level depending on your class and if you can get a kill in with all the bots running.

That's a shame to read about the bots. Lineage 2 all over again /facepalm

If you don't like to grind do instances, harvest, craft, pvp... There is no need to rush to 50 and bash greys... Just do something you enjoy with other players.

I am also getting bored, I was playing 4 or 5 hours a day and now I almost can't play for 1 hour.  I was anxious to get to lvl 25 for the pvp, but now that I am lvl 25 I saw there isn't much pvp at all at this lvl and I need to lvl up again...

I hate pve and it's mostly always that..  I saw 1 band of elyos rifting so far, they got smoke in 2 minutes.  When I rifted I endend in some elite camp without any elyos to kill.   Fortress? All the mobs in there are lvl 40 and I hit them for 1..

 

I need like 10 more lvl for the game to become enjoyable but it's getting tedious.

Edit: Forget flying combat, the camera keep switching from side to side and you almost can't see what you are doing, the only way I saw to counter this is to not move while fighting in the air. Boring.

If there was at least 1 bg I would stay there.  At least there would be something to do for the solo pvper.

Man, what game have you been playing?

For me the PVP started at level 20 and I got as much of it as I wanted.

1. at level 20 you start getting quests that are sending you into the opposite faction territories (spying quests, delivery quests, robbery quests, opposite faction pvp killing quests, etc...)

2. at level 20 you also are in the rift areas. While PVEing I very often had asmos popping up around me (that surprise while PVEing is always some  awesome fun), and rifts opening up for me to go to asmodae.

3. at level 25 you do your Abyss entry quest chain. Once done I was in the Abyss whenever I wanted for some instant PVP action. The Abyss also has some of the best grind spots, dungeons and some nice quests for all levels. I.ex: delivery quests, pve quests, war related quests, but also quests to kill players of the opposite faction (and you will be doing these quests all the time as you need to kill 10 players of each abyss rank), and pvpve quests where you have to fight against the other faction for the right to pve (boss or spot).

4. at level 35 you start to be effective enough to take part in artifact and fortress PVP (you can start earlier but you wont be strong enough to be effective).

The points you get in the abyss also give you access to some of the best gear ingame.

And when you are tired you can always go on a ganking spree, alone or with some friends   (and as aion is a faction based pvp game, ganking makes sense and it is a lot of fun - even when you get ganked - as opposed to the ffa pvp games where the ganking ruins the fun)

I'm in the same boat as the OP.  It is really my fault though as I had a feeling going into this game that it wouldn't be as much my style.  I tend to prefer instanced PvP over open world PvP these days.  I don't dislike open world PvP though so thought if a game did a good job on it, I'd like it.  Not saying Aion doesn't offer great open world pvp as I did have some fun with it, but ever since I've hit 28 the game has come to a crawl for me.  I just don't think I can handle putting in the necessary PvE in order to keep progressing.  Maybe I somehow missed a quest hub, but I am completely out of quests other than the repeatable/grind ones.  I can only take about an hour or so of grinding in the Abyss before I become "bored out of my pants" and log off for the day.

There really seems to be a disconnect with the xp gain from killing mobs and solving quests - you simply seems to loose alot of xp, by the to much running you do when solving quests. I dont even take the reapetable quest at this point, cause the bonus typical is the same as killing 4-5 mobs : why bother the travel time..

There seems to be a consensus, that combat need to be more fun. A content patch could do 2 things - make the grinding more giving; more fun rewards like items and enchantstones with more offensive stats. And add more specialisations; aka builds. Right now its just one way; everybody are using the same skills, and perform on the same lvl; its a rpg game, but once you have chosen class its just one way forward. Stigmas is a place where Aion could stand out, add abit more flexabillity, options and tooning here maybe.

And for the sake of Merlin, Yoda, Gandalf and Aleister Crowley. Make spells crit allready.

Don't think you'll be seeing this anytime soon. Spells used to crit back in beta (Korean)  as far as I know, but was found to be OP by testers when stacked so they removed it.
