We also get to see what the number one ranked player in the abyss gets as a reward; The ability to look like a raid boss, and cause a lot of damage while being able to take a lot too seems a fitting reward for such a task.Developers also assure potential players that the game was designed from the start to reach a global audience. Visuals were designed with this in mind, and characters, which would never be bulky or unattractive in Korea, have many more design options as a result. The team behind Aion believe barriers like this are starting to break down.See the video, which also includes a couple of exciting bits of news about the game, on IncGamers TV.New to Aion?
