Recently in a GDC Europe speech, Yongchan Jee, NCsoft's lead designer of Aion, stated on the creation of Aion, and analyzed the facts in design that has made it a huge success around the world.
The lead designer acknowledged that it is still too early to parallel Aion with Lineage 2 and World of Warcraft and in South Korea the MMMRPG market had stepped into stagnation while MMO Casual Games were coming with momentum in the world. In fact, Aion has received great success in both China and Korea and replaced WoW's role in TOP 10 Hottest Game Ranking List.
Jee takes pride in their fight design, one of the most special features of Aion. This design is to meet the needs of PvP players and PvE players.
