I played Aion after ffxi and I had the worst time on that game : / All the menues were lagged up and i never found Aion AH to be easy. I played it around Aions US launch. But quit after obviouse reasons. If they improved things then cool. I was just sharing my experience. I don't like auction houses mostly because ppl rely on them for prices and getting items. Most item xare over priced cuz of player greed. Like ffxi barwater/ra was double the shop price that was next door.

I liked ffxi UI actually it was quick and easy. Aion wasn't to me.
