Synopsis: Aion's Lani "Liv" Blazier and Producer Brian Knox and a number of fans joined us for Loading... Live Episode 16 dev chat. We'll review the week in MMO news and jump straight into our dev Q&A.

Crafting, lore, PvPvE attributes, and much more are on tap in this entertaining 39 minute podcast!
