Done with Aion China and other ruminations

August 5, 2009

by

I decided today that I won’t be logging in again to the Chinese version of Aion Online. The game is a lot of fun, taken for what it is, but I’ve still decided to take a step back. The main reason for this is that the American release is looming ever nearer. I have a …

July 29, 2009

by

a. MMORPG, g. Guides

July 29, 2009

On top of this, a certain ISP *cough* Comcast *cough* was also causing a lot of issues based on their own internal designs. Yet, …
