Over the past few months I've been playing quite a few single player games and I'm starting to feel trapped, the content and plot in most games are similar and always seem easy for some reason. The last game that really thrilled me was a MMORPG called Dark Age of Camelot, probably the best player vs player experience I've ever had but sadly the game died for me when the amount of players dwindled and my friends left one by one. I've been searching for something to fill that void, something that will have a well developed player vs player experience and I think I may have found it. The game is not through the open beta (which starts soon) part of the cycle so there is no idea what the end game is really like but as far as I've played I really enjoy the system, I hope it can live up to my expectations. I will cut short quotes from the website to explain some of the key aspects of the game
edit: this thread is more to introduce the idea of forming our guild, i know another topic exists.
What is Aion?
Aion is a visually stunning massively multiplayer online roleplaying game (MMORPG) where your character wields devastating powers and sweeping wings to explore a celestial world of breath-taking beauty and epic adventure. It features cutting-edge imagery, gorgeous environments, and a unique fantasy world. Your character plays a pivotal role in the fate of Atreia, where the enemy is not only the other player faction but a deadly ancient evil as well.
Aion is played on a Windows PC with Internet access.
The World of Aion
Explore the inside of Atreia, a world sundered into two halves, with the chaotic Abyss between them.
Aerial Combat
Start thinking of online combat in a whole new way. In the skies of Aion, attacks can come from any direction.
PvPvE
Engage in intense raids and encounters with nonplayer opponents, not to mention the opposing player faction.
Ascension
Characters in Aion begin as talented but normal humans who are fated to become more than human. They ascend, becoming Daevas, at level 10.
Classes
Choose from four starting classes. When your character becomes Level 10, choose a subclass to specialize your character.
Character Customization
Customize your character in a multitude of ways with a thorough character creation and crafting system, as well as detailed item customization options.
What seems quite original to me is the 3d fight system, having players run around and chase opponents through the air seems like a cool idea. So far quite a few members of Fakku (some stafflol) have decided to band together in this and we're planning on forming a guild. We haven't decided on a name but are very willing to hear ideas. If you would like to know more, contact me through IRC or PM.
Website
here are some caps from the beta that I took.
