To be honest you could have defeated my fairly flaky argument with two words:

Meh, I hate the look of the Aion wings anyway.

It does worry me a bit (just a bit) NCsoft would pimp GW to sell Aion. I generally assume NCsoft is smart enough to let Anet do its things without interference. This isn't huge, but give'm an inch, they'll want a mile.

What's kinda funny about trying to get GW players into Aion - characters are pretty much the exact opposite in these two games. Aion - tons and tons of cosmetic choices/variety, nearly zero choice in character mechanics (once you choose a class). GW - just some basic hair, height and face choices (tho they still look good), but a vast number of skills and builds.

Oh so Guildwars players that want something thats a part of GW in the GW game itself have to buy Aion to get it, wonder how many more things anet will release that require us to buy games that aren't gw.....

Terrible idea.. watch people QQ so much like the BMP that they will make it available to buy in the online store...

Wonder how many people will /aion when they kill someone in PvP, lol...

I love ANET. I really do. They're good folk, who made a good game, and I think they've tried real hard to be good to us.

But GOD how I *HATE* NCSoft. Wretched devils. selfish, greedy, black-hearted, and without a soul. They have come to invade, to ravage, and to consume all that is good and right in the world.

I'm mostly kidding, (sorta) But seriously I wish they'd just, like, rent a billboard, or something, and piss-off with this nonsense. (Then, they should pass a rope around the office and take turns hanging each other from said billboard, and the last one can jump.)

God, with ideas like this, its no wonder thier marketing manager left - he probably didnt want to be blamed for this idiocy.

I wonder if this silly little thing is WHY Jeff and that guy both left? Sad, but maybe it's true?

this.

also, maybe a pop up every 30 mins that reminds you to go buy aion. i played the chineese beta of aion, and while its an ok game, its still p2p. in no way is anyone going to spend a lot of hard earnt cash on an emote. if you were interested in buying aion, you surely would have done it by now, especially with the whole special edition thing.

and what if you have just bought the pre order pack etc? or pre ordered the normal game. do those players now get shit on? should have been something they offered to everyone who bought aion imo.

this is surely anet grabbing us by the ankles and squeezing every last peice of shit out of our ass so they can have it... or is that the other way around?

I think my brother wanted to play Aion, so maybe I'll take advantage of that to get myself a pair of wings. Either way, I'll find someone to take the game off my hands.

It's just advertising. I see wings all the time on my Paragon or /P. Now there will be Aion wings on other people in outposts. It's not a big deal.

Considering I already preordered Aion at Gamestop this is just icing on the cake. Very cool!

And people complain that guns don't fit into GW?

Very tacky looking, never understood the facination with people wanting wings on their characters like this. Seems like a good way to sell Aion though, I'm sure there will be those who get it just for this now. I'm glad they don't carry over to GW2 at least.

I want those wings but I already purchased the digital version. OH my gosh AION is awesome and wonderful and and lol Played in closed beta and am now waiting impatiently for open beta.

And flying? oh yes it's great!

If you like a mix of PVP and PVE you will love AION. It's worth the money and the P2P fee it really is.

GW 2 is in the works for real and as far as I am concerned NCSoft has some great games.
