Aion’s 3rd Beta Weekend thoughts: Class choice and whether to beta test or not
—
The 3rd weekend ended yesterday for Aion’s closed beta weekend testing. Although I was really looking forward to logging in, I found myself trying not to play at all. The next testing phase will allow players to reach level 25 and participate in the Abyss, or parts of it due to the low ...
