Ok cool, looking forward to hearing about it. About the GW thing, got no clue how it works, never felt encouraged to try the game. :c

Nice, which one? Got a WD 500gb (firewire) but last time I tried to record to it I lagged a lot. I thought firewire was faster then USB (either that or my friend lied to me)

Is there anything else indicating that you're in combat except from the music and the fact that you're taking damage, like something graphical?

I, too, have a 500Gb WD external drive. I bought the drive and put it in an enclosure myself, not pre-made.

As for being in battle, you'll have your sword out and sheild off your back and if you're an Asmodian your eyes will glow.

Is it possible to unshealth your weapons without being in combat?

im ashamed to admit that thats the first realization ive had about the glowing eyes... i thought it was just a "natural" Asmodian feature... never occurred to me that it was induced from battle... awesome!

I am watching the video now, half-way threw! Where you sending some sort of petition ? (In that window where you typed I <3 Aion). Anyway that was hilarous, ''oh hay I have no clue what am I doing, so uhmm...let's click here and here...oh let's type I love Aion and hit ok!''

Good stuff, thanks for those video Mark!

I think that's some kind of questions about your testing experiences, like, did you enjoy that first quest? What do you think about the combat, etc.

Thanks Mark, those 30 minutes were really helpful.

I REALLY want to play this game.

Yes, and the battle music will start up and you eyes will glow if you do.
