Disagree - Faction choice matters a bit for control of Abyss and the subsequent AP farm that ownership allows for.

Goal of anyone should be to have fun. You'll be in fine company as a casual, I'll have alts and don't mind running dungeons on them that aren't aimed at efficiency. Plus this one is different from a lot of most recent Asian games, its very casual friendly and relatively easy, especially for the...

Yup, I'll be going Asmo / US East / israphel and in Discord for anyone that wants some help. @Raes also tends to be a good source of information and has played a lot more recently than I have. Everyone said this in Aion 1 as well and 95% of the servers were Elyos dominated. They did remove the...

It was on beta but not sure if they are going to keep the same naming convention. I played Israphel in Aion 1, so nostalgia means I'll pick it regardless of ping. NCSOFT Things.

I'm doing Asmodian on the Israphel server. I will be on 24/7 the first week or so and in Discord for anyone that wants to join.

I agree with your premise but it's naive and doesn't reflect the reality of the impact that it's going to have. As someone who was going to have multiple alts regardless because I have a lot of time available in early October, this benefits me, I've just seen this song & dance before and know...

Yes, we're launching with S1 content but with a large number of QOLs implemented. This means that the additional class (Brawler) will not be available. This is pretty typical of Korean MMOs, where class releases are treated as content. I would assume we are only going to get it when they...

This is not false (that it can be 1 button macro'd) however they've made changes so that it's slightly less efficient to do this. You are certainly not getting anywhere near the combat complexity of Lost Ark & BDO however the combat has been trending in a better direction for a bit now. No...

Last day of September if you purchase a package and gain access to head start. October if you do not. They will traditionally lock servers for head start & non head start, which makes it a mess to play with friends but this is unfortunately necessary with the Abyss.

Trailer was really good for an MMO game trailer, so linking it here for lazy folks. It's a shame that a good portion of what's in there won't actual be available at launch (hi2u Brawler at the end). For those interested in checking this out to form your own opinion, they're performing a stress...

This is a PVE game despite the Aion title. If you like running through dungeons, you'll enjoy this. There is a lot of that (solo & group).

Server separation is indeed a problem but I don't see this playing out how Reddit does. I might be wrong but I feel that the F2P servers will be filled with individuals who won't even buy the sub and will thus quit even quicker, especially when they realize that they can't even use the AH. For...

The only pack that presents value is the cheapest one, which effectively provides you 5 days of early access for $5 now that they've added 30 days of sub to it. The decision that people interested in the game need to make is: 1) Do I buy the cheapest sub knowing that this will place me on...

There hasn't been two subs in quite some time in Asia so no, there won't be two subs in NA. It's one sub only and the founders packs now include 30 days.

We already know what's going to be shared; 1) They are limiting the daily purchases of Kinah within the in game cash shop. 2) People hate the founders pack and they'll likely comment on this with the most likely addition being +sub time. Note: (1) is completely useless and does not change the...
