Aion, US Launch This Year, NEW Fantasy MMORPG
Aion: The Tower of Eternity; from the creators of Lineage II, NC Soft, comes the next big massively multilayer online role playing game (MMORPG). This game went live on the Chinese servers last year, and will be released on US servers last quarter of this year. If you’re familiar with MMO’s, than you’re probably familiar with World of Warcraft (WOW), the largest MMO currently. While Aion will probably not surpass WoW in size (number of player), for anyone who has been playing World of Warcraft, some since 2004, for this long, are ready for something different. Aion is different from most MMO’s in the fact that it focuses on flying as a main aspect of the game, for travel, combat, and profession.
I recommend anyone looking to play a new MMO, or thinking about starting back with an old MMO, to try Aion this fall on the US Retail. I will probably give the game a test drive when it comes out. I update the post when the game is released to publicize my server.
