Aion

I played Aion at release, for about 6 months or so. It was nothing but an uncomfortable korean grindfest for me. I hear that they've made improvements on the game since then, so I've been tempted to go back and play it.

I know that there was a big teaser a year or so ago for a huge graphics upgrade, did that ever come to pass?

I've never heard of a graphics update. That is something that Aion doesn't need...the graphics are amazing. It is not a grind fest anymore, they have added tons and tons of new features with 3 different major patches now, with new XP quests and perks.

Actually, it runs on an ancient version of it's graphics engine. The promised graphics update would put it up to a more current version, and introduce a lot of nicities. Check this out:

Apparently it was a "Hmm, we COULD do this, but no firm plans" thing. Meh.
