Aion: Assault on Balaurea was an expansion pack for Aion, which was meant to fix many of the issues that had plagued the game since launch. For the most part, it succeeded.

Review


7Imagine, if you will, a planet. The core of this planet is where all the action is, as large monsters wage war against two races similar, but equally apart. One race is from slightly left of the planet's core, another slightly right and both are distinguished by the color of their skin/wings. The original Aion took place completely in the center of this planet, and did fairly well. It was still met with a lot of criticism though and for a lot of good reasons. But it was also a game that the developers responded pretty quickly too, and since then it has moved in a very different direction from the initial launch. Aion: Assault on Balaurea takes place on the outside of this planet, where all the monsters in the center of the planet come from. If you're still following, that's pretty excellent, because there's still a lot to discuss when it comes to this expansion and how well it plays.
