    I like style better. I am interested in Aion as well just more along the lines of "I wonder how it's gonna turn out" for B&S just seems alot more fun to me but, we will have too wait and see.

    i've chosen Blade And Soul , because it just looks more promising to me for now.

    But i believe Aion will have way more players than Blade And Soul

    I was really looking forward to playing Aion, but after seeing a B&S gameplay vid, I'd go with B&S.

    Pros (IMO):
    -better combat system
    -fast paced fighting
    -Skills look cool (Hoping it isnt skill dependant like Cabal)

    Cons:
    -characters look kiddy...
    -graphics aren't the best

    As for Grinding...Could be anywhere from Guild Wars grinding to L2 (I'm hoping its WoW grinding...)

    You guys have not even seen an actual interface of BS, i mean B&S, yet already hyping up via a few trailers where all games look stunning in any trailers =/

    and judging from the design, i dont think there will be tons of cool equip. i dont think ppl can scale walls wearing some platemail or dragonbone armor.

    Depends on what you call cool. I personally prefer light cloth to heavy metal.

    And I remember when Aion Trailers were being released I thought it looked alright nothing I'd update my PC for, though. B&S actually looks fun to me. IDC if the gameplay fails I can't judge either games by gameplay right now since I have yet to play them.

    That's the #1 thing i hate about a lot of gamers. They only join games cuz of "cool" looking armor. Reminds me of WoW and PvP whores....

    IMO, Aion armor looks like upgraded Power Ranger armor

    Pros (IMO):
    -better combat system
    -fast paced fighting
    -mid rate grinding
    -doesn't always depend on skills ( like Cabal >_>)

    Cons:
    -characters look kiddy...
    -graphics aren't the best
    Interested in the bolded parts, the game hasn't even been released yet o.o
    How can you know?
    I could possibly see the skill based thing(as in skills as a player vs the player character's skills) but with nothing to base it on but videos that are almost always misleading, isn't this setting expectations a bit high?
    But the grinding part could be anywhere from guild wars' "lack of grind" to L2*'s "damn it when will it end?!" grind.

    Not to condemn your points but all of this speculation. Actually, the article is at fault for trying to compare an a pizza that's been already made and a pizza that is still in the oven...I'm hungry >_>

    *Replace L2 with your grinder of choice.

    yeah,it will all boil down to preferences.NCSoft games are always awesome and dont dissapoint anyone...also both titles seem to cater more to the "western" playstyle ,small grind ftw.
