    Some players love & crave those niche aspects that, while not being perfect, make Aion stand out compared to the rest of the games in the MMORPG genre, above all the supremely superior combat gameplay (the best "classic TAB target type" combat in an MMO, even to this day), the faction open world PvP, and the community interactions happening on a daily basis, fueling excitement.


    I am one of these players.


    To us, Aion is an S Tier MMORPG that has been increasingly ruined by multiple factors throughout the last 9 years or so, and an official Classic server bringing together as many English speaking players as possible nowadays is as close as it gets to what we seek.

    Galeas: "still nothing 100% sure"

    players:

    EL CLASSICO confirmed :)

    X( EL. X( CLASSICO. X( CONFIRMED. X(


    On a serious note though, with this latest statement in consideration, surely you agree that the likelihood of EU getting Aion Classic is significantly higher than most players expected?


    It's on the path towards release, meaning something would have to go wrong for it not to release in EU. Of course Galeas has to include the disclaimer that it is not 100% sure yet for good practice, just in case something negative preventing the release actually does end up happening, but it's fair to think we'll most likely get it at this point.

    I checked how KR and NA was announced, and I found out in both cases it was a month between announcement and start of server (roughly).


    So maybe, there is no news (for us) because NC wants this short time, so all keep playing as long as possible on retail Aion. If they announce it now for november, maybe many would take a break or dont start retail and wait for classic.


    Or there is really no news bc NC doesnt want it, bc our market is too smol.

    But EU's market is bigger than NA's, so since they released it there, that shouldn't be a factor. There are thousands who would play on Aion EU Classic.
