Aion is a beautiful game.

Aion is an asian game, and for those who like FFXI and other simliar games, Aion might be worth a play.

I think the main difference from WoW to Aion is the playstyle. You don't have control over your spells and actions like you do in WoW. Everything is turn-based, like a card game, you need to wait your turn for a spell to go off or a move to start, so there's no control of burst and such, fights feel like a slow grind sometimes and you have very little control over how to do things.

I didn't like it.

I didn't like FFXI for the same reason.

Pretend like every single ability you have is like Heroic Strike and you have to wait for your swing timer to reset for your cast to go off.

I don't know, not for me, some people love it. Aion may be quite different from FFXI, but the control system looks the same, perhaps I am mistaken, i hope so because I would love to play this beautiful game =)
