Aion: From 0 to Expert, Experience With Me! (Part 1) -- 01-04-2008
KeyWord: aion,review,NCsoft Date: 01-04-2008
Summary: I was so lucky to join Aion's eighth closed beta test conducted in South Korea and I'd like to share my experience in Aion with you all.

Controls
The controls in Aion are similar to World of Warcraft. But one thing you need to pay attention is that F12 is the hotkey to hide your game interface in Aion - -!

The above is the interface of Aion. I think it must be familiar to every MMOG player. is the key for flying. I'll introduce flying later in this article.

Special settings
In every town, there is a revival point, flying point and a mail box, also similar to World of Warcraft. The following is a comparison of character attributes before and after death, from which, you can see death penalty affects both attack and defense. And the character's moving speed will also be affected. If there is a sequela of death, your character will move at a very slow speed. If killed, the player's character will lose experience. But you can buy the experience back from NPC and remove death penalty. The cost varies depending on the player's level. Sometimes, it's expensive. So be careful not to be killed when fighting monsters.

Death penalty comparison
The first screenshot shows the character in normal state and the second screenshot shows the character with a sequela of death. In the top right corner, it will show the time the sequela will remain (the more times you are killed, the longer the sequela will remain)
