Aion is not easy, but I wouldn't say it's hard either. It's just right. Yes, it can get a bit grindy, but believe it or not, some people actually like grinding mobs. To me it's relaxing, talk with some friends on vent, drink a beer, have a good time. However, you can do a crap load of quests that speed it up. Some levels take only an hour or less to burn through.

Aion is known as a grindy game, but I remember grinding just as much in WoW, except I wasn't having fun doing it like I am in Aion.

To each their own though
Best.MMO.Since.EQ+DAoC.

Godbless NCsoft for their baby. A great game going to get even better! Can't wait!
It's because Razer and ASUS teamed up to inlcude a mouse with your laptop purchase... That's the only reason it says ASUS on it ;)
Doh, moments of 9/10 :)
I am guessing the majority of people who enjoy Aion are playing it right now. As with any game, you will get a lot more people bashing than complimenting.

I would give the game an 8/10, but it has moments of /10. It's not very everyone, but personally I love the death penalty. PvP is great, grinding is fun (I much rather kind than do lame quests like gather this and that, etc. though they have those quests too if you wish to do them).

It's worth getting for a month and trying. The game is fuuullll of people, which is nice. If you play, make sure you find a decent Legion. Aion is not meant to be a soloers game. You will find it most rewarding with a few friends or a legion, etc.

Hands down it's one of the best MMO's I've played Since DAoC or EQ. Sadly, many of the MMOers out there now had their first experience with WoW, which really ****ed the industry IMO. Oh well :)
I could really use both of these... O_o Good luck all!
Mmm, I'd love me some 360 action, if I had one :) !
I think he was referring to the fact that you called everything out of Japan nonsensical, when clearly all over the world games can be nonsensical. World of Warcraft is just as nonsensical and as an American made product.

Wait, did I just say games can be nonsensical? Wow... Posters really need to think before they post O_o
Daang! I would totally give this to my buddy who's 1G iphone is going out!
Touched for the very first time!
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm in the market for a new phone and money isn't a limitation. I'm also not partial to any particular US carrier, but here are some of the features I'd like to have: WiFi, GPS, good coverage in lots of places, push Gmail (a must!), physical keyboard (a must!), a touchscreen, decent battery life and a relatively slim body. And please, nothing that has a fruit logo on it. No offense to the fruit fans, though. Thanks!"
