Been doing some digging, and apparently NCSoft isn't completely deaf to its userbase: they dropped GameGuard from the North American release of Aion, apparently. If you're in the Asian or European markets, apparently, you're still stuck with it.
And from what I can tell Acyl's right -- it's not part of the launcher, just some of the apps that the launcher, er, launches.
I'll try to keep an eye on it. If it doesn't come with GG I'll grumble but deal; if it comes with GG... that's probably a dealbreaker for me.
(As for the rest, I'm jazzed all to hell by it. So of COURSE there has to be a potential fly in the ointment. *sigh*)
