Could be just a hype :)
Either way, glad it's a big hit. Hopefully it will get translated and hosted in the US real soon.

Until now, i didn't even know Korea played WoW. :D
But it probably won't stand a chance anywhere else though...
this game doesn't look truly too special
I don't think it's gonna be beaten. WoW has around 110 million fans around the world.
Yay for aion! cant wait for the english version close beta XD
if it can own WoW in korea, it can own WoW any where!
YEAH
Aion is F2P right now...
Wait until 25th when monthly payment starts rolling.
I doubt it will surpass WoW even in Korea, and yes I played Aion and stopped playing 2 days ago.
It is a great game though. It will surely have its own fanboys soon enough.
WAR was surposed to beat WoW, but it hasn't and probly won't, kinda fell flat on its back seeing as every server is pretty much low/low. So really i don't see Aion doing anything WAR couldn't.
I think Aion will be rlly popular in Korea and other asian countries,since they like those kind of games more.WoW is much more popular in the west.
ahh i hope aion comes to europe sooner and blocks US >:3 mwhahahahahah
Key word, IN KOREA
Anyways things could be different in different parts of the world.
AND LOL WAT AION THEN SUDDEN ATTACK THEN STARCRAFT WTF?
Aion will get ditched in American , plus Aion is korean made by them and hosted by them I don't see why its not popular there with their 1 billions of other "popular" game.I saw a gameplay at a conference and NO thanx im not playing this korean generic nice GFX game.
on a side not if your dare to call me a troll go ahead , I know yo never played Aion or even been at one of their conf.
WoW , even WAR will eat Aion panties alive.Both these game are made for American Aion not ,Aion is just a nice GFX game with no new features "almost all same " .
Trolling not giving info yes .this is a huge hype that will Fail soon after P2P .
Oh well Gamer's will never learn from the past!
I suppose it'll depend on how much advertising it gets.
even there people will play it and will ditch it nothing new but i like the flying combat but it get old .
Not exactly true. WoW is really popular in Korea and China and the fans of WoW in those countries are crazy. Killing people in RL, leaving baby at home to go to internet cafe to play WoW. Aion IMO is a fad that will die out. Not sure what it features but i do think that the only reason it overtook WoW in internet cafe game time is probably because they want to see what the game is like.
Why do we have to have a WoW vs [insert new game here] thread every week or [insert sentence here relating to] WoW, threads in the F2P forum -_-''''''''>_>??????
It's like mostly every week we go round in circles discussing WoW when it's already been discussed so many times before. I'm stressing here because I'm f2p >_> and you guys should post in your own forum, WoW forum.
because it have to do with WoW ? the point of this thread is that in korea Aion is pwning WoW . will it pwn it here? not even in korea will after p2p
ty rhdonald that the point all people that is hyping this will get disapointed as much as the other game we all know it was a use fail for F2P and big hype here in OnRPG
i second that and for the record i don't play WoW.Quote:
NO thanx im not playing this korean generic nice GFX game
almost sig worthy...
yah, i don't see whats so revolutionary about WoW anyway, it all seems so generic to me, no features that pop out... plus i love the whole concept in Aion, angels are fricken sweet.
i knew WAR would suck but then a friend convinced me to buy it... and it did suck. they really flopped that game... might be decent after a year or two.
wow will still stay nr 1.
aion need a modern pc. Fast cpu(quadcore), 4gb ram, good gfx card.
Wow doesnt need that. Probably after 1 or 2 years, when the last one upgrade to a better pc. And still then they wont play aion cause new mmorpgs will come out that let look aion old.
wow had luck cause it had already a huge fanbase, and thats what made wow successfull. The immense playerbase that u wont find in any other mmorpg.
and we wont forget that at the time that wow came out the influence of japanese characters was huge. we had right back then the japan comic-style boom. so wow was in the right released.
I didnt like wow since the beta stage, but thats me anyway.
The reason everyone always compares new games to wow is because currently all games are aiming to beat wow and till one does all p2p games will be compared to it it was the same thing back when eq was top dog once something comes that beats wow the same thing will happen with it.
Oh my GOD can't everyone just shut the **** up about WoW this and WoW that and WoW is gunna be 'killed' and this game is gunna beat WoW and WoW is relevant to every single MMORPG in the world.
Seriously who the **** cares about WoW.
If it's a good game we'll play it and thats that. Let WoW be WoW and dont give a shit.
It makes me want to blow my ****ing head off.
WoW.
It might not beat WoW, but after playing Vanguard, Tabula Rasa, AoC and WAR, and seeing the numbers those games achieved right at their releases, if aion doesn't do well in EU/NA, then we are ****ing ******ed.
The game is awesome and addictive like no other.
PS: The requirements are surprisingly low considering it looks amazing even in low settings. A 6600 and a P4 runs it smoothly (a clannie played the OB with that shitty computer), any "gamer" has better stuff nowadays, a 300$ setup can play Aion.
WOW needs to have a competition. If blizzard don't have competition against other mmorpg then they are going to go lazy and WOW won't have that much updates anymore.
I looked at the vids again and wtf it looks like lineage 2 with super graphics and flashy skills n wings is that why everyone likes it?
korean gamers are totally different compared to EU and NA players,
different market, different mindset, well i HATE wow, but i dont think aion is good enuf..
yeah i heard aion own wow korea.... but dont expect too much... sometimes korean games failed on the translation ^^....
