NCsoft's Lineage enjoys record year, Aion growth boosts total revenue

I love to see that numbers without the Korean and Japanese market! I want to see what there games go like in the rest of the world!

I find it hard to believe their is consecutive growth in Aion outside of the Korean/Japanese market. Aion more or less collapsed after the first month or two in the NA/EU market...

I'm curious as to what made Lineage I boom again.

I liked Aion, but didn't really stick with it.

I'm not too much of an NCSoft fan except for Guild Wars, but good for them. More growth in the MMO industry is always a good thing.

Fail-trolls? It's a point of fact that aion lost 75% of it's eu/na servers in less than a year. The game is making money, no doubt, but what's good for the company doesn't always equal being good for the company. Sales are up because they have introduced numberous cash shop items for their pay to play games, but player count is down across the board.

Aion and lineage remains extremely successful in the east, but that is entirely irrelevant to it's western player base and any conversation related to it. Western players do not recieve the same content, events, or support. It is journalistically dishonest to imply otherwise.

Another point of fact to explain the large proportion of western value is that we are charged 2 to 4 times as much as our korean counter parts for access to ncsoft's games. If anyone is trolling, it's the article poster.

(S)He states: "Much to the chagrin of fail-trolls across the internet, NCsoft has also publicized the fact that Aion continues to be a financial success after "recording consecutive growth for the last three years." but aion in the west is barely a year old.
