I really liked this game even at launch and played for a while.  I didn't get very high level, but I loved the PvE.  I know it sounds crazy but I just love to grind mobs for drops and cash and do crafting.  The class design and combat are a lot of fun.  If I could do this and avoid pvp I would resub in a heartbeat.

This a good game I liked the graphics and layout of the game but too me there are too many games out there just as good if not better that are free to play so to me this is not woth the money to play. I find that the play to pay games are slowly dieing since there are so many new games coming out that are just as good or better for free. If they made this a free to play game I might consider going back to it but until then I will not bother waisting monthly fees for something I can get for free else where.

rofl good joke.

but actually the real joke are ppl who think a f2p game is gonna be cheaper for them then a p2p..at the end u will be forced to pay more money on the f2p games then p2p games. thats my experience from 7 years playin mmos (f2p and p2p). and also a f2p game would mean mass botting/hackin/goldselling and a community full of jerks. so hf fun on your bott games :)

I have yet to play a F2P game that offers the same quality and depth of gameplay that is offered here.  I certainly have never found any F2P that offers near the P2P experience this game (or any other P2P) offers for less money output.

You can avoid pvp if you want almost completely.They have nerfed rifting so its not a big part of the game now. I play aion to pvp but i unsubbed at one point because i would get ganked non stop by twinks decked out in gold gear and that just sucked all the fun out of trying to level....that has all changed.I think the only time you wont be able to avoid pvp now is from level 50-55 because that part of the map is like *ground abyss*

I agree, I have tried several ftp games and not one can hold a candle to Aion and what it offers. They all feel a bit "junky". Even Forsaken World which isn't badly "put together" doesn't feel the same, feels sort of "cheap" in comparison.

Unless someone wants to compare it to LOTRO or one of the recent pvp games changed to f2p.
