Aion: The Tower of Eternity

[Vanion]

Ladies and Gentlemen of the Black Tower Community... if you are into MMORPG's, I present to you...

 

Aion: The Tower of Eternity!

Not only does this game appear to be thoroughly badass, but it is, in fact, awesomely badass.

 

I am involved in the closed beta for this game, and I am very impressed thus far. It is graphically stunning and the lore behind it is epic. You can currently pre-order the game (I suggest the Collectors edition, and you can play in the closed beta events).

 

That said, you need a fairly kickin' gaming rig to play this beast in all it's true glory. The site has some good video of some of the zones and such, I suggest checking them out: http://www.aiononline.com/us/media/video/video.html

 

Your Storm Leader has spoken!!

and now for the topic bump!

[Elgee]

*wishes she could play*  :(

[Vanion]

Start an uprising in SA demanding better internet connections!!!

 

RISE UP, ELGEE!! BE A HEROINE FOR YOUR PEOPLE!!

[Elgee]

We're getting internet TV here ... but we're not ACTUALLY getting it, because the internet's too slow  :P

 

Dunno, Van ... I normally make other people rise up.

[damane]

*Rises up and then lays back down*

 

i'm really tired.

[Vanion]

I am determined to get as many folks from the BT playing this game as possible... That way, we can dominate the entire game world!!

 

Muwahahaaaaa!!

[Blackrose]

dude if its a closed beta we cant play it until it comes onot live servers.

 

looks ok, better than WoW? if so i'll give it a try when it gets released.

[Jelly]

*Considers*

[Vanion]

Way better than WoW

 

Also, as I said, if you pre-order, you can get access to the closed beta events and play it still.

 

You also get early access (24 hours) of play before the rest of the world gets to play  ;D

[damane]

i don't have the money to play anything like that.

[Jelly]

Oh, thought Vanion meant you had to pay to play the beta...

No, me neither, and my parents barely have any money >.>

[damane]

i don't really know, do you?

[Jelly]

Ah, now I do...

 

How much will Aion cost?

We anticipate Aion will be similar to our other subscription-based games, featuring a boxed product and associated subscription fees.

[damane]

Nevermind, i can't play i am broke.

[Talya]

I have more important things to spend my time on, let alone money. So I won't be!

[Dunbar]

Yeah, like other games and movies n' stuff

 

(I'm only talking for myself, of course) : p

[damane]

Well my bills come first, and once i pay those i have nothing left.

[Vanion]

Well... I have a lot of time on my hands and don't have to worry about money... so I am going to play the hell out of this game.

 

I refuse to end up like Dar though, who got hooked on WoW, thus deserting the Black Tower!!!!

 

The BT and my responsibilities here at DM come first... domination of the MMO world a distant second. *nods*

[Elgee]

Glad to see you have your priorities straight ... somewhat  ;D

[Vanion]

Life is to short to have a long list of priorities.

[Talya]

I wanted to play LotR online, but couldn't justify the time to spend on it, and then I refuse to pay for games for Heather online, so I couldn't do just mine neither, lol

[Blackrose]

Van, is this  US servers? or will there be EU servers as well? or just a worldwide one?

 

looks interesting enough to cancel my wow subs for a while.

[damane]

Yes, Vanion is married to all of us at the BT. He loves us like that.

[Dunbar]

Especially me
