Aion Sales

Aion is the massively multiplayer online game from NCsoft and earlier we reported that the game would be coming to Europe and North America. Now according to Gamespot, the NCsoft MMO, Aion has sold almost a million copies in North American and European regions.
Apparently the company announced in its third quarter earnings call that the MMO had sold over 500,000 copies in North America and 470,000 copies across Europe. Aion gave NCsoft quite a boost, and revenues for the most recent quarter were up by 112 percent to 142 million dollars, and net income during the July to September period were reportedly up by about 836 percent to 40 million dollars.In Aion, players are engaged in a war foughtbetween celestial creatures, as the fate of the magical world of Atreia lies in the balance. A crucial part of the game is flight, and players can use it to explore new locations, combat enemies, and to complete quests in the game.

Cliona Lake in aion

Cliona LakeQuests from Akarios Village will set you about exploring Cliona Lake where you will help the local populace with clearing out more threats as well as collecting some rare items and retrieving a lost axe. The lake is meant to be the centerpiece of this zone and while the number of quests here do not neccessarily reinforce this feeling, the scenery certainly does. There are several spawn points of the begining gathering recourse here, grab any of these that you can. Gathering quests are a big part of early Aion for a reason, start now so that you wont need to backtrack later. If you are saddened to leave this picturesque spot you need not fret to long, you will be back here to help complete your ascension quest later.
