Aion is an NCsoft MMORPG that was recently released in North America and Europe. The game has been online in Korea since November 2008 and in China and Japan since the beginning of this year. Aion has millions of subscribers and the number is sure to increase with its release to this half of the world. But what makes Aion so special? MMORPGs are a huge undertaking for a player if they are to be taken seriously. Hours and hours are spent in these games that, by definition, never really end. Why should a player spend time and money on Aion, or any other MMORPG, when World of Warcraft dominates the genre so consistently with nearly 12 million subscribers? Well, Aion offers a few things that other MMORPGs can’t, including the infamous WOW. Here are some of them.
First of all, everyone can fly. This is a feature that cannot be found in any other MMORGP on the market right now. There are two races to choose from, four classes and eight subclasses, and each of them can fly after reaching level 10. Characters can use flight as a quick form of transportation that can be used at will, unlike mounts. that are found. in WOW. And in Aion, the flight is not just limited to transportation. While some areas may restrict flight and limit the amount of time a character can stay in the air, in an area called the Abyss (the central stage of the world battle for Aion), flight has no restrictions. Air battles are a totally unique element in this game, and the decision to unlock this dimension of movement and combat was great on the part of the creators of the game.
As mentioned, this game allows players to create very specific characters, first through race, then class, then subclass, but that’s just the beginning of a character’s specialization. Unlike other MMORPGs, Aion offers unique customization. NCsoft is the publisher responsible for the City of Heroes and City of Villains games, and any gamer who has previously played either of these games will know that NCsoft is not kidding about customization. Over forty seeded heads can be chosen when a character is first designed, along with eye color, hair color, height, width, and a collection of other physical characteristics that ensure each character is distinct and unique. different.
Furthermore, this game is rich with its own unique and very comprehensive story and background, filled with ancient wars, epic battles, ultimate evils, and conflicting goods. Chapters and chapters of the game’s story can be found on the official Aion website: http://www.aiononline.com. There, and throughout the game, players can immerse themselves in a world that was carefully designed to have a classic feel of good vs. evil and a unique story unto itself.
These are just some of the elements that make Aion unique. It is important to understand some of the advantages an MMORPG can have when selecting from the crowd that is available in today’s market, but the only way to really see the game for what it is is to sit back and play it.
