Well from this, I'm assuming the game is almost finished since they will be working on the abyss so much . We will have to wait for the translation which usually takes an awful long time to do.

Oh, well being in Noble Phantasm Tylendel has translated a few things before for us, and in my opinion I believe he does a pretty good job of it. You may disagree with this for whatever reason though, I just figured he had made the effort to bring us new information and therefore it was a good job. Personally I'd like to believe it's more a case of people not liking what they hear the Aion developers say as opposed to a really bad translation. Companies frequently contradict themselves, so I figure that perhaps the whole grind thing may be another case of that.

Since it's not like that, I'm thinking that it's alot based on... soloing (they weren't talking about RvR or PvP EXP yet, just the PvE part I suppose), just as we saw it in most videos.
But I guess it depends on how many PvE leveling spots there are...
Well, I thought it was meant to be Asmodians level quicker in the beginning and Elyos level quicker at higher levels. In that case at the beginning when it's quicker to solo Asmodians get a head start because it's easier to find mobs/do quests etc compared to later on when you need groups to get things done, which favours the more popular Elyos.

A: During internal tests, both races require a similar time to reach the maximum level of 50. However, this is probably affected by the number of players as there are many more players choosing Elyos over Asmodeans, hence the player density differs, thus Elyos characters may find their leveling speed slower.
Aion is not a quest based game. The amount of experience required by both races to reach level 50 is the same. The grind is expected to hit Asmodeans harder in late game than Elyos.
Although who knows what they'll do at this point. Maybe you can solo all the way up to max level for exp but with less quests and more grind. Maybe.

Just watch it end up being a Summer '09 release.

Lunais, Endrance is not questioning Tyrendel's knowledge or truthfulness, he questions the chinese source Tyrendel translated from.

Wouldn't beta reports calm your fears? If Irisviel tell us this game is lore oriented instead of grind fest, now that's a solid proof, if people reached level 34 in 15 days, now that's a solid proof, everything you can read around here might be wrong, excepting facts.

About the 2009 release...I fail to see how beta releasing in july would affect localization, one would expect they have already done every translation up to level 34 by then.

A later korean beta means they will have more time to finish up the translations, and then they would have 16 levels of content to translate before we get a beta or something.

Does make it look like Tylendel's translation was being brought into question. But perhaps this is just a misunderstanding. ._.

Regardless, I don't think the information contained in this Q&A is terribly farfetched, if it is true.

PS: As to the grind statement, please remember this article is originally addressed to the Korean gamer base. The notion and their tolerance for grind is different from Western gamers, and the language reflects that.

google translation points at this:

"but he could think of, Aion Quest is the center of the game is not"

That part is in red.
