NCsoft releases third The More You MMO video
NCsoft has released the third episode in The More You MMO series of video shorts focused on RMT in Aion. The new piece, entitled Earn Your Power, examines the perils of buying your characters as opposed to leveling them up the old fashioned way. "When you buy a character, you could be buying a character created by an RMT company or a power-leveling service. Not only could your security be compromised by dealing with these companies, the link your character has to these companies will lead to your account being eventually banned. Even worse, your character could have been a character stolen from another player who has been hacked," states the press release accompanying the video. You can watch the short, which chronicles the ineptitude of a newb named Yarvington, on the official website or embedded here on Massively after the cut.
Aion and Rooster Teeth: Power leveling is bad
In the midst of the increased account security worries over the past months, a little levity isn't always unwelcome. Aion is combining the two with a series entitled "The More You MMO." Part one focused on the dangers of RMT. Part two was released yesterday, complete with an extra shot of awesome in the form of a partnership with Rooster Teeth. The post consists of a simultaneously hilarious and creepy video illustrating what could happen to you if you use a powerleveling service, except you won't get any cookies. Aion's newest The More You MMO reminds us that Powerlevelers are professional thieves, not philanthropists, and using such a service is putting your account at risk. The video drives the point home and provides a laugh along the way, so it's worth a watch. Follow along after the jump to check out the video, and read up on the dangers of powerleveling over at the Aion site. Also, watch out for Papa Lou.
