Tried our Aion tonight (instead of sleeping). had a beta key from my Tabula Rasa days... Got to level 4... Warrior... evil dudes...
I dunno man... these games are so laughably similar it is just crazy. Even FPS after FPS feels more different than these MMOs do. It is pretty crazy the feel and the way they play is so identical from release to release.
I will probably spend a little more time with Aion, but I can't see spending much.
...also wondering when you get wings... that is the thing about these Betas... if you jump in... there isn't much by the way of instruction if you haven't been reading all the forums and such. This sucker needs a better getting started intro/tutorial or something.
