hey man , I checked out the Aion site but there's no gratis period and i was unable to find a private server with both satisfying rates and a decent number of people.Not to mention they are still relatively new and plan on wiping after some updates or other reasons in a number of the "top" servers so i don't think i'll be playing any time soon.
Let me know if/when you start with Aion!
