Will gameforge be astronomical or meteorological?
The question is probably more heliocentric or geocentric in nature!

And with the classic server in NA you may climb faster, maybe you will be governor
Don`t you think : "It`s a long way to go till governor with 1vs1 on a dead server?

if you are referring to me... sometimes is hard to make heads or tails out of your posts... no offense
No, I was referring to Kegi
But always try to hide this.
And if it breaks out of me like last time, I quickly get confused in the conversation, misunderstand something and or mislead my contribution (not intended, only in the brain is usually thirteen steps further than the topic).
We have not had an official confirmation of the release of the Aion Classic.
Innova only said that it was possible. On our forums, players scold Innova because of the lack of information, as you scold the GF

but overall the game provided everything somehow in a reasonable amount of needed items back then.
Thank you for your honest and impartial answer. -
I'm just trying to understand Doris, why he thinks that old Ncsoft times were better when there were less players.
Thank you for at least trying to understand.
Others shut themselves off from other opinions.
So companys income is more important and that's what measures if the game is a success or not?
Sorry English is not my best language (but I also know my weaknesses in others)
You have whales that pay for everything and the publisher makes more money.
Only when we have a p2w (f2p) game because some think it's better because more players come to play.
And more players doesn't mean there is a better community.
If more players don't pay for the game, the result will be more whales
that leads to more p2w, which in turn means more injustice in the game
then fewer players again, which in turn leads to more p2w so that the company can take the missing money (a vicious circle).
When you try to make short sighted goals and make more money, it usually kills the game play.
This is exactly what I praise for so many years here & in the old forum.
A freetoplay is only ok so far as long as all players have the same requirements, this is eliminated by p2w items so in the short term money is earned and the players are satisfied for the time being (especially if you think it is better than no game at all).
No, you only notice it after a while when the whales have bought themselves as much combat force which you can't catch up in 24/7 & 365 / year because certain game content is only available in the shop or at 0.0001% during the event period.Sorry again, but I prefer more a game where I can get / earn everything there is ingame instead of buying it from the shop where I don't feel proud (at least I wouldn't
proudly announce that I bought this and that in the shop.
I would, like back then, announce that I have achieved something in-game alone under the same circumstances without having reached my wallet, as well as with the miraju-set or at that time, my masters about 500P in crafting or my 50s Abbysset
or my ability to collect ether in flight and on the ground over 399 points,
my DarkPoeta set after thousands of runs.
Trilions/Bilions of Kinah with the restrictions at that time where you didn't get 100kk / instance and run.
That was still worth something what is still worth something to you in retail today?In any case, for me and in my opinion, the Deava-Pass in the classic is not a p2w but only saved time (buy a reduction in the time to work out everything to play with your buddies who have more time) and not buy combat strength.
In the classic there are by far not that many items that you have to expand so often, roll all statues with luna, find the right base, try the base resets again, cubes, transformations and their effects and so on.Have I left something that is incomprehensible?

i'm not sure if you address this to me or not but i will respond
I think I was meant.
But it doesn't matter (at least now because we close this theme didn't we?) !I have another answer here why so many players leave ( back then & now) :
-
I am assuming that the whole thing will not continue like this.
There is always a perspective to be seen:
I see the glass from back then half full and NC wanted to save
and you see the glass half empty and they discarded everything that was not profitable.
I agree, let's stop talking about it and get back to the main topic!-----FINE------------------ΤΕΛΟΣ -------------------------------END
For my part, I will enjoy Aion classic extensively through Aion NA
from the first week onwards.
My launcher and account are ready.
Of course I try to create my character on June 16th.
And finally start playing the game on June 23, but hell is to be expected how long you have to wait before you can log in with such a start.
I have the advantage that I have a late shift this week and can be online when I start without getting tired.
What have you/someone already prepared for it?
Do you/someone even plan to try Aion classic in NA before cursing it? -
i was talking about have been close in 2009-2012 period.
Read than speak ! Don`t you learn this at home?
-
when was it back then?
korea alone was fine but we don't care... it was the west that was shutting down slowly
This report I posted is from all NC Soft as a company with all regions together.

NCSoft Financial Statement Analysis (slideshare.net)
There you have Facts about back then !
Likewise of what I see NC Soft does not has not made any losses.
But you all think you are right

does it mean none has siels aura first week? or everyone has it ?
That means, as I understand it, that everyone can play for a week free only then the subscription is needed.
But even then it is possible to play 1h / day without all restrictions*. (may some)
Display MoreIs purchasing Siel’s Aura necessary?
It is possible to play Aion Classic without possessing Siel’s Aura. In fact, all free accounts will have Siel’s Aura for one hour each day to accommodate more casual players. However, after the first hour, Siel’s Aura will be removed. Experience, Kinah, and item acquisition are reduced after the first hour of play passes each day. If you purchase Siel’s Aura, you can play without any of these restrictions. Siel’s Aura will be offered in the following 30-day, and 90-day units to reflect subscriptions with the original Aion:
30 days = $15
90 days = $42

Gameforge implemented
GF has not implemented anything, much less ever developed anything (see Platinerk garbage because they were not able to implement it)
except started p2w marketing.
The game was at the start not designed so that everything is in the shop instead of in-game.
At the beginning GF showed through the freetoplay that there are enough cows to be milked and they pulled it off.
NC just took over milking the cows and developed the game further.This is also the main reason why Classic is not free to play
and everyone who has officially announced that they are releasing Aion classic has always mentioned that it is p2p.
Should this change to f2p, I would advise everyone to keep their hands off it immediately, otherwise you will find yourself right where we stand with retail .. at the abyss -
Unfortunately, I have to say that you might just want to troll too.
NC Soft left Aion in the EU and handed it over to GF because the support was too expensive. That was the only and main reason!
It was not profitable to pay that at European prices.
But do you just keep talking that the game at that time (what nonsense) was "dying". .
Paint your past as beautiful as you want it to be.
I like to cheer on looking forward by jumping on the classic train.
But you will be milked here with flags and trumpets until the end and receive it as "Thank goodness that there was GF" where I only see one big mistake.
Cows always say "moo" even if they don't understand the world.
You guys are nice money cows for GF and think you're so great.
I would have no problem keeping up with the pay2win whales, but I'm not doing it because that just wouldn't be me.
I always stick to the phrase "do something right or don't do it" I don't have to be told that I've bought everything.
But hey, have fun if you later stand there without players in retail just because you haven't understood that something is going on right here.
Even GF's b2play games are currently on the move or are just coming will not be the slightest bit different and then swivel to p2w like everything else GF touches.
But you think it has to be.
Nobody can help you there.
Give GF the bill for how they handle it or be quiet!

on each skill bar on the right bottom corner there is a number which you can move up and down.
Myriani means these

it wasnt gameforge alone who turned this game into an full p2wgame
If you first look for numbers, data and facts in the past, you will see who made the breakthrough through Freetop(l)ay and thus p2w first.
I'm not blaming NC Soft for just copying GF (to make a lot more money).
Both company`s & many others thought it would go on forever, only they cut themselves neatly.
Black Desert must be 500 years old then
I don't know the game but if it has so many patches then maybe, yes?
The time for games always goes by way faster than in the RL, it has always been that way and it will always stay that way.

Watched some videos from this SOLO to see what you guys are talking about whole the time............ in these videos the streamers praised Gameforge -from which they said the videos are sponsored- for avoiding any p2w in the SOLO cash shop.........
then I remembered the Tiamat transformation in the fast auction in the cash shop yesterday which Gameforge prized for 30k AION coins which are around 1200 euros with the actual +30% special for one single transformation........
then I had to laugh out loud........
That shows again not really listening to people .....
so you as always.
And if someone has a different opinion, you cannot accept it and then just block it like a toddlerHad you really tried to listen you would have recognized that they warn GF to do not the same mistakes as other games.
Because GF already has a bad reputation for turning / changing everything in a game to p2w.Back to topic :
The NC Launcher is probably 100 times better than the GF Launcher by far.
well... 1#getting a dusty toy from the shelf after playing with it for so long in your childhood times doesn't make it suddenly a new toy. it's still a toy that you got tired of it at some point and you had to put it there on the shelf.
i logged in my acc and it doesn't show acc creation... but it was around 2005 with gw i think. odd that the add 2#subscription button is sending me to those more expensive packages.
#1 the dusty toy ist retail no one loves it anymore like the first time.
Like everything used, it has lost its charm it doesn't make the freetop (l) ay any nicer.
The other is still in the box (like new) an no one here has already play with it.#2 I can really remember the old client from NC soft it didn't have the bait nor RNG nonsense likewise we see by try to login !
neither this
nor this crap

more accurate it would be 12... the age of aion.
it's not a vintage car that everyone want to own it... for now it's something just like and older car that most ppl run away from. aion had this habit of pushing ppl away for some time now.
But that is also not correct because:
The current retail Aion is what is so old.Edit in Red:
Let me explain it to you and many others who hopefully will understand!
In games, it's like counting the rings on a tree and those are the patches that the games have behind them.
The less patch notes, the younger the game.
And that's why I'm right
So I wish to play the brand new Aion (as new as it was made) and presented in 2009.Old = Retail
New = classic
(like it was at the beginning fresh and untouched by GF )BTW
MY Account on AION NA was way older than I think But ready for action
can't wait for the day to download it. ☠️R.I.P. AION Retail☠️
