Aion worth the money?

Do you get a free month with the purchase of the game? Do you think it's worth the money to play? I am going to cancel my wow accounts tomorrow because its total boredom.

This is off the subject but I really miss the crafting system in SWG. I liked how everyone had the choice of a template and that's what defined you as a character. The quality of your crafted gear gave you a little edge. I really hate how wow focus everything on loot. Your character is defined by your loot. You can be the best player in the world but not raid 24/7 and have sucky gear.

yes, yes and yes.

What's the 3rd yes for ;-) ?

But yes I think it's good so far - do note that it's so far only 2 aion per PC max and that software boxing may not be allowed or working indefinitely - but for now it starts to work (you can see my other posts/my site for infos)

Somehow I picture Aion as a korean grind party a la Lineage 2. I guess I could be wrong, but they really tend to be grindy at higher levels :P

I quit after 3 days and went back to wow boxing :)

Care to share why David for people trying to decide whether to pick it up?

Thanks.

I am dabbling in Aion, dual boxing a templar/cleric atm and am 18. Have no issues with 2-3 equal level mobs but not killing real quick unless I can dps with the cleric to.

Its very linear and I can only do short stints atm due mainly work.. Though I am told once you get past 20 it opens up a lot more so will continure on until after that and see how it goes.

I can see pvp being a total insanity streak to multibox.

Graphically its nice, macros are easy enough once you put a bit of work into it.

End of the day I am enjoying it mainly for a bit of difference from WoW & EQ2.
