MMOSite.com recently posted up a preview/review of the Korean closed beta by zhanglele2004. Go check it out right now! Ignore the last sentence or so of the article. Opinions, opinions. ;)

Hmm, it seems the closed beta was still offering players a very poor version of Aion, no pvp, summon's could only be used as tanks, no fallen.

I like the fact that two teams will be able to kill each other in dungeon's for territory or bosses.

Guess we will need to wait for an OB to really feel the game, this review wasn't that helpful, he said everything that didn't work.

Just to note: Someone commented on the article saying that the Korean CBT is July 31st, so this seems to have been a very limited testing. I actually like the idea that it's going to be more fighting-like I think.

Good find, Mark!

It just seemed like a limited preview of what may be in the CB, since it isnt scheduled for another 22 days.

I don't like how much he slated it, didnt even focus on any good points and only mentioned the bad points.

The first closed betas usually don't have much in them, sometimes they only release what they wish to have people test... Therefore I won't put much stock into this preview/review. It actually surprises me they are allowing closed beta to be openly discussed, or maybe it's just me. o.o

It's probably some "friends and family" guy who could care less about NDAs. But hey, it's news.

Not a lot to "review". Wonder if E3 will reveal more information. I'm dying to know about some of Aions content and features.

The article didn't seem to impressive. It's kinda hard to bash a beta anyways. The very point of them it to work out the bugs.

Haha! I hadn't even thought about it, but they have racial little-brother syndrome.

That review was pretty much focusing on the negative aspects, but it's cool. If I was writing the article I probably would of done the same. It's always nice when someone praises something and raises your hopes about that thing. But when I'm out buying a cell phone I look at the negative reviews. I want to know why people don't like it. Because when it comes down to it, you're investing in a product and if everyone said it was awesome and you get it and realize there are bunch of negatives you can't stand you're going to be upset that you spent the money on it. If this game was pretty awesome but it had one or more features that irked the hell out of you, would you continue to play? Prolly not, because those one or more features that irk the hell out of you make the game not 'pretty awesome'. I want to know the negatives because that's how I decide if it's worth my time or not.
