Mostly speaks for itself. Part II Coming soon.
So I’ve been playing in the Aion open beta since Sunday, and while I was gonna wait to say anything about it until I had made some videos to go with, the one issue with the “open beta” is that it hasn’t really been open. Rather, you had to either have already pre-ordered the game, or be a paying FilePlanet subscriber.
Now some of us were already planning on buying the game on day1, so we went ahead and pre-ordered to get in, but having such requirements is still poppycock for an “open beta” – which is why I’m happy to report they lifted them. Open Beta is now open to the North American public, going on until this coming Sunday.
You can go here to sign up, here to get the client, here to learn more about the game’s basics and lore, and here’s a good thottbot/WoWHead style service to plug into. Hope you enjoy it as much as I have!
PS: For those of you wondering, it’s apparently pronounced “Ion,” like “Ion cannon.” The A is silent I guess. Signs of a foreign game clearly.
Play it. Become one with your daring escape from a city under attack. I am so hopelessly hooked to this. Expect to see high score posts.
Hey guys, just wanted to let you know I updated my portfolio again. This time I’ve added two new sites I made with University Relations for you to look at. Please take the time to check them out and tell me what you think! 🙂
Found another amusing one on Kongregate called “Monsters Den – Book of Dread.” This one has a cool old-school D&D dungeon crawl feel to it, and even lets you customize your party before you begin. It’s a dungeon crawl though, don’t expect much in story and I’m not entirely sure it ever ends, but I’ve found it amusing.
