Aion gameplay video shows some personality


Over at Curse there's an interesting video preview of NCsoft's upcoming Aion as well as a couple of screenshots showing off the game's flexible user interface. The entire interface can be adjusted to however a player would prefer and in the screenshot above you can see that Aion is well aware of the popularized WoW-style layout. We're always in favor of letting players easily organize their interface in the way they see fit.



The gameplay video, however, is far more interesting. If you hadn't been at least marginally interested in Aion -- or didn't even know it existed -- then check out that video. While the quality is fairly low, you can easily see that NCsoft has been carefully crafting this new game.

The animations (and graphics) look great and even in a low resolution hand-held-cam video the game's personality manages to get through -- partially thanks to the unique music. We would also like to note that it appears as though Aion uses the 'WASD' movement configuration, which is another reason for us to be slightly more curious about the game.
