    Correction, there's little to indicate either way... This reminds me of when MMOsite people kept trying to convince everyone Aion would be/might be F2P or B2P.... *roll eyes*

     

    mmosite is an asianize mmo site. most people there are minors and plays only  free2play. so its not a suprise hearing some darnest thing.

    but saying aion expansions will be free is believable but then again the fact that they aiming in western style model.. who knows..... however i have high feeling it will be free expansions just like lineage2.

• • free expansions?

  • i am 99% sure expansions will be free jus like lineage2 since it is not made by american.  asian mmos method of how expansions work is usually free that adds new stuff to the current game/world where everybody can access and get a hold of.

    while american mmos method of expansions is it is individual making people to buy it. those that dont buy cant access the new stuff in the expansion. wow and guild wars are like this. (but i think paying expansion for guild wars is ok since it is not really a mmo like wow)

    i like the way asian mmos did.

    for me.. paying for expansions in a mmo is a no no. paying for expansions in a single player game is a yes yes.

     

     

    patch update is not same as expansions. patch updates are usually small fixes and small adds.. while expansions is something big that is being added. every mmo have free patches updates.

    codemasters is a euro publisher. RFonline is developed by koreans.

• • RF-Online due to close US & EU servers on the 10th NOV.

  • my thought/opinion on RFonline:

    to me it is a new and enhanced version of a dead mmo called Gate to Heavens. same sci fi theme with a blend of fantasy and huge weapons.

    RFonline art style and everything else is stylish with huge weapons, dwarves and elfs and such. overall art design and visuals are great but the graphic and enviorment landscape are bland, plain and nothingness. the traveling speed, the default run speed, the moving speed ect.. are slow and unbearable.

    its jus one of those hundreds koreans grind festival. leveling are slow. do same thing over and over killing mobs ect.. nothing was there.

    the game sucked even when it was monthly fee. turned free2play and still suck and deserted with not much players. archlord is similar but guess they keeping it.

    codemasters should bring Zera and Infinity.

    Hell, this city looks just like pre-searing Ascalon

    I'm not saying they are the same, Aion uses CryEngine 1, so it has overall better graphics like detailed shadows, lighting or spell effects. I've checked every Aion screenshot I can find (on this, and on other sites), majority of the screenshots gives me a "Guild Wars" feeling with similar graphics design. Only screens that don't give me that feeling are character close ups and general flying-with-wings thingies.

    Anyways, graphics aren't final yet, some of the screenshots has way too much low res textures, and some others have general higher quality than others.

     

    Edit: Btw, I'm just compairing with GW because thats one of the titles I played, that's why I'm not compairing it with FFXI or Lineage 2, because i didn't played those.

    now that you mention it..  i agree some of the building design is kindda similar to guild wars. the clothing design is also similar to guild wars. but everything else doesnt. the facial and character modeling, shape and figure is totally different.

    guild wars character modeling, figure and shape is more cartoony style and funny(good own way) while aion/lineage2 character modeling, figure and shape is more realistic.

    lineage2 clothing design is super fantasy with revealing and erotic hotness. how aion is different from lineage2 is aion leans toward western style which has covered up clothing and more realistic clothing while keeping stylish.

    why i say it look like final fantasy is that the whole atmosphere and enviorment with giant mushroom and stuff have the sense of final fantasy. why i say it look like lineage2 is the facial, character modeling, shape, figure and overall art look like lineage2 plus it is the same people that made lineage2. why i say it look like wow and other western is that it is a WASD game with content ect.. like wow/western and some clothing is similar to guild wars.

    aion is made by the same people that made lineage2 not guild wars.

    overall i say aion is a fusion of lineage2 + final fantasy + wow/western
