Hey guys and girls!

[Jaxx]

Hey everyone. Jaxx here.

Hope your all well.

Anyway a brief introduction from me.

Im 20 years old living in England, been a keen gamer all my life and hooked on MMO's from the first time I signed up to Phantasy star online on my dreamcast.

My first big MMORPG came in the form of FFXI. It ticked all the right boxes being an extreme FF fanboy and crazy about the idea of MMO's
The game was an absolute masterpeice(IMO)
The community, The world, the job system, needless to say I completly hooked for a good few years. But sadly even the best things must come to an end and with everything it became stale.

Once the current MMO king was released (WoW) many of my online buddies jumped ship for greener pastures and even some IRL buddies began to play WoW so I figured I might as well join them.

I played WoW for a long time. It was a great game and no one and deny that it is spectacularly executed (props to blizz) the easy playstyle was a breath of fresh air compared to FFXI.

I did all the usual things. had a few level 60's all in good guilds. tried my hand at high end raiding and PvP. Got me some epix etc... loved it but could help but thing something was missing. Something that FFXI had that I couldnt quite put my finger on.

Once THe burning Crusade was released I decided my WoW life would come to an end. I tried for a long long time jumping from MMO to MMO to try and fill the massive void.

I discovered vanguard. After a lot of research into the game it looked on paper everything that I was looking for but sadly it was very poorly executed and marketed and I didnt hang around for long.

Shortly after I was invited to tabula Rasa's Open Beta and gave that a crack.
The premise was there and the style was unique compared to what I played before/ But once the shine had worn off underneath was an extremely repetitive grindfest with a poor community.

So that basicly it. Thankfully I have re-discovered the joys of console gaming which has served me well filling that gap 2007 blessed me with some great games thankfully. Bet now there all done and over with I just need something else!

After scouring the net checking out all the new and upcoming MMO I stumbled upon this gem of a game. Now I had already known for a long time about WAR and AoC and those were the ones I was looking forward to most.
I hadnt really heard anything about Aion but it looks and sounds spectacular and has definatly got my mouth watering.

Could this be the game I have been desperatly searching for? I hope so.

Sorry for the long winded post heh just bored at hone and have much time to kill.... Just think the 5 mins you spend reading that is another 5 mins closer to Aion release!

Welcome to the Source.

And an extra darkside cookie for a long intro.

And I'll give you a tip. Asmodians are cooler than Elyos.

[Jaxx]

Haha thanks *Munches on the cookie*

I am loving the idea of being an Asmodian and want a sig to reflect that but there is a real lack of decent artwork for the Asmodians (from what I have seen)

Guess I will just have to use my imagination.
