Running scrolls? Clowns?

[huez]

No Running scrolls but can use transformations for more speed.
Being transformed 24/7 seems very bad idea.

My first reactions was: "Is this a joke? A really cruel one and against Aion players."
So how does it work? Is it really intended to make fun of players and force them to buy those transformations for real money all times + items that hide those transformations with real money again?

Is there any human solution for this?

basicly aion is currently [hardcore p2win]

everyone gets ultimate +15 by using irl money

progress without using money is so slow that ppl just give up

no1 likes the game anymore

I know all that. It still seemed not the worst idea to lvl to 80 and have some fun since i heard getting EXP is pretty easy atm.

However its not very easy to crawl around like a worm while leveling and this transformation thing ...

Who comes up with nasty and silly ideas like this...

Transformations were intended to increase the income of AION.
The first 1-2 months they were Pay2win exclusive,
so you had to pay or you had to endure this torture of being so slow.

In Pvp they play a huge role, simply said the person with the higher tiered transformation wins,
because even if he doesnt have the stats to beat the enemy, he can simply run away with the huge movement speed a legendary transformation gives.

Also this was just the beginning.
The Transformation sets are coming.
Which means if you have for example all legendary transformations, you get bonus stats permanently and an additional active skill which increases magic attacks by 20% for 7 seconds.

I personally hope AION dies out soon,
its torture seeing such a great game(which i have been playing forever) going down because of greed.

However, have fun and let me know if you find a game that doesnt get drowned in the pay2win system

Its just disgusting!

This game have such a good base. I have tried many MMORPGS because AION is simply ruined by greed and stupidity but i cant find a game that can replace this game.

Tried GW2... It seems that people there are nice but none of them actually can even tell whats good about this game. Item progression is non existing but takes a lot of time to create.
it would be completely fine tho but im talking about very little things.

Like the sounds and Looks of Crit Strikes make them so desirable.
GET THAT GEAR AND GET THOSE SOCKETS FOR MORE DANG!! DANG!!
You can see it, you can feel it!

Even this little pointless thing is draggin me back to Aion since Crits in GW2 are hardly even noticeable.

Should be meaningless but it is not.

Yet they somehow manage to ruin this game more and more so hard that people who constantly try to come back always get dissapointed for years and years.


Games with way worse base manage to keep and grow their player base and good community and therefore they dont have to milk every single last player dry to survive.

Those devs must be pure evil... Kill the game, kill the playerbase and suck out as much as money possible as possible.... been going on for years.

YET THE GOOD BASE STILL KEEPS THE GAME SOMEWHAT ALIVE....

Its the same for me and for many others.
But you know there is a choice as a publisher,
either building a community around you or the game,
or just making money and not caring about the game or its players at all.
Guess which way GF took?^^
Also nobody should be surprised, GF has such a bad reputation because they did this to other games in the past too.

They had a huge chance with the 6.0 reset,
i mean look at steamcharts alone:
- when 6.0 came out: 800 avg players / 3000 peak
-now after everyone saw their pay2win ♥♥♥♥: avg players 350 / 800 peak


People are so ready for a new MMORPG, but all the ones we got in the last few years were pretty much garbage.


I play GW2 every now and then, but i dont know, i think it lacks content that needs groups, you can do everything on your own and there are only a few little dungeons.
What i do like about it is the exploration of the world with the waypoints and that you can explore it in any kind of order you want.


Back to AION:
Am i the only one that is annoyed by the fact that there are only like 8 different armor sets in the game? No random Drops that are worth something, no Tanks required, no aggro management, no flying and not even professions - what an "mmorpg"...

Wait what? Aion have only 8 different armor sets?

[huez]

Oh wait a second.

[huez]

Aion Aion Aion got me hooked with

*Ascension (Woop! Now im godlike being with wings.)
*Haramell: is this a hint? Whos feeding us with that Odella? Humm... interesting.
*Uuh.. the first little bit but still shiny armor.
*The damned Twinks... kitten Rengers and Assassins and the mighty lvl 55 Cleric who just came and said their last words. LeL
*My first Kromedes Dagger. Then second, then both +8. Time to fight those twinks. OOH i can almost solo Kromede... not. But we got this Twink ONCE... 3vs 1 ofc.
*Instances were actually pretty hard.
*Twinks again, being a twink on your third character, without even reaching the endgame, still playing lvl 30 stuff for hundreds of hours.
*Endgame. Damn those dungeons, they hard but i like to stay dead and wait for that one HERO who stands up and walks all the way back to the last boss. Me again?
Ofc all type of groups had their own ways to complete dungeons. So even if i was thinking: "i got this place". Someone jells at me: "Hey SIN WE WAITING!" ME: "Wut?"
*Being a cleric. FULL TIME JOB!(But good) Login and... DING DING DONG... "just a sec, let me take my coffee!" Okay we dead... Templar, stay back my fellow Sorc will tank today.
*Lets take a moment of silence for our dead beauty, who always got us exited for glory she could give us: Abyss! Those skills bang! The gear, dead again? ok
*Rifting as a mighty, fearless Assassin, waiting for the perfect moment... uses: EMPTY RUNE BURST! on gathering dude and runs away in laughing tears... followed soon by group of 6.

So much fun, exitement and failures... but always one thing in mind: GEAR!

(Only old Aion players prolly can relate to any of this, but it was fun at times)
Your aim was always on the gear but everything between was the thing that made you love the game.

What happened?

"Oo so, lets make the cash shop. This game is basically driven by chain of dopamine bursts in players heads when they success and reach their goals but...
F*** it, lets give all the stuff for real money and make game really not challenging at all... but lets make it so: Takes about 2 months to get some proper gear by doing boring dailies. Lets make them suffer like drug addicts waiting their dose. YET AGAIN, they can open their WALLETS.

So we open up our wallets, we get the items, we dont get the fun and pleasue of reaching the goals or the dopamine that was created by achieving the goals in AION-
We riot, we cry, we die and leave with broken hearts and broken wings.


Aion used to be a game of choices.
You can:
Farm and craft
Open world PVP
Do Instances with groups.
Help noobs.
Be a solo warrior.

Anything could lead to profit but with little variations of gear you have.
U gon have higher PVP % or Higher HP or Higher Resists.
Depend on what you aim for or choose todo and all you do will help the game grow.
Its nothing like now-

Now its just linear bullcrap based on your dolla dolla.

Devs working on this are just stupid who dont even have 5% of the brain capacity of people who Created this game


Just Go private servers.

Well i got myself into Beyond Aion but Aion without much players aint same thing.

Never touched wow, i always thought that its too late for this game. Somehow...

Dota 2 was my "rehab" pack from AION. "
ME: 45minute match with no long term goals should not hurt my real life"
Brain: Think again! GO! GO! 45minutes AGAIN!
Im done with dota 2.

BDO somehow managed to draw me away in tutorial stages... Loved the combat movement.
Possibly "too good graphics" and overwhelming information load from the beginning.

Im looking forward to: Ashes Of Creation.
(Looks big but im allready worried because of very main structure of the game that cities exists only when there are players on this location that make it grow, Aion players should know what happens when some core mechanic are trusted for the player population.)
Still...Until this ill just stick to old stuffs to not get too much into anything else.
