Aion Online
morbid79:
Me, I just want people to play with.
Hurr.

Alex!
Please don't mistake that comment as arrogance, but you have to admit that when it comes to mmo's ( generally in my experience) there's always someone that comes in and starts talking trash in accordance to being loyal to World of Warcraft.
I happened to be up really early in the morning and saw Morbid's post, and I thought I'd throw my two cents in before someone read, "WoW is so much better because it's not like anime!" or something similar. And loyalty is great, but... if the person is a WoW fantatic... and hasn't played both Aion and WoW... well... do they really have any productive criticism?
I thought it'd be a good way to open a thread saying, "Let's not compare apples to oranges". Sure they're both mmo-s because they aren't targeted at the same audience. Can you honestly say WoW can say their best feature is their pvp? For the most part it's all about getting to max level and raiding.
So I think I may edit my post to make it a bit more clear that I just didn't want this to turn into a MMO-zealot war.
Also, Kana thanks for posting in my defense!
Sorry to cause troubles.
Melodic:
Okay, so for the sake of argument, what does Aion Online do any better than World of Warcraft? I played WoW for about a month and didn't enjoy it, but from what I've read it still has every other MMO beaten by a landslide.
Covetous:
Also, is there any kind of free trial? Tired as hell of buying games without knowing what I'm geting.

The reason that WoW has done this is because Blizzard was an already established company with established titles (Warcraft) that people knew and already had a history of making pretty okay online RPGs (Diablo II). They had the numbers on their side and it was such success that it continues to dominate because of that.
