FRESH QnA from NCSoft on Aion The Tower of EternityAION TOWER OF ETERNITY NEWS
1. How extensive will Aion character customization be?

In the game client, which was being showed in Leipzig, the player had the ability to
choose between several different hairstyles, colours, shapes of their face, skin
colours, character height and voice. It is also possible to alter eye colours and to
add tattoos to the character face. A character build feature is currently being
planned, which will affect the size of the character, ranging from skinny to big.

2. ?Tradable wings” have been mentioned. Exactly what does it mean?

It was most likely a misunderstanding. Wings are not bought in Aion, but changed by
other factors such as a rising PvP-rank.

3. What will you do in order for Aion to appeal to casual players?

We want to have short-term goals in the game, such as quests fitting within shorter
timeframes. There will also be appropriate rewards for completing those. Very
powerful game items (weapons and armours) will be attainable in different ways,
making it easier for casual players to gradually work towards them.

4. Are the Asmodians significantly different from the Elyos?

It is possible to see that the Asmodians and Elyos come from the same origin. They
have the same, fundamental humanoid shapes. An analogy would be to compare elves
with dark elves.

5. Will there be player housing?

Not at launch, but definitely as soon as possible. It is likely to be in the first
expansion.

6. Will there be mounts in Aion?

No. There are currently no plans to implement regular mounts in Aion. Transport will
be done by foot or by flying. There will also be a long-range teleport system and
short-range travel-services in which you let the game control the flight to your
destination.

7. Will flying timer and cool-down change with character level?

No, probably not. There will, however, be items and skills which can enhance these
abilities. In practice, this could mean that as the character progresses to higher
levels – it also gains access to these skills and items.

Personal thoughts:

The wing factor based on PvP(I hope PK) really makes it worth it , it's reminds me Risk Your Life series were PK points increased the PvP attack and defence factors and they seemed to be a crisp of PKing am .

Also w00t!! The 3rd point sounds really awesome , I hope that we will see less and less grinding , especially for gold and items , heh we don't want another 2moons don't we beee ?

Player houses ? Sounds cool , but I hope that money factor wouldn't influence this field like in Second Life and other games were players can have a chance to build something.

And finally about mounts...Who needs em when you have wings behind your back ? victory
