[b]The World:[/b]
[img]http://img109.imageshack.us/img109/193/tmap.jpg[/img]
The world of TERA began millennia ago when two titans of unimaginable power, Arun and Shara, met in a formless void. For reasons we can only guess, they fell asleep. And as they slept, Tera took shape around them. If you look at a map of the world today, you can see Arun and Shara—their sleeping bodies became the two continents that bear their names. Centuries passed, and deserts, mountains, rivers, and forests grew upon Arun and Shara. Yet still they slept. Even for an omnipotent titan, every sleep is a chance to dream. As Arun and Shara slept, their dreams came to life—life in the literal sense. Arun’s and Shara’s dreams coalesced into the first living beings to call Tera home. These first creatures, twelve in all, had godlike power. Yet it wasn’t long before schemes and rivalries emerged and the gods were at each other’s throats. All the while, Arun and Shara continued to dream, and their new dreams took shapes familiar to the gods. These new creatures—the mortals--were far more numerous, but far less powerful.
Arun dreamed of ambitious Elves, clever Humans, honorbound Amani, powerful Giants, scheming Devas, and mischievous Poporis. Shara dreamed of sly Sikandari, dark Gulas and Vampirs, fierce Wendigos, strange Faeries, and serpentine Nagas. In time, the twelve gods would go to war—first against each other directly, and then drawing the mortal races into their battles. These divine wars left most of the gods dead, imprisoned, or otherwise diminished. The mortal races didn’t escape unscathed. Some—like the Sikandari, and most of the Giants—were wiped out. Others—like the Barakas and the Castanics—emerged from the conflict itself. And as TERA begins, the Humans, High Elves, Amani, Castanics, Barakas, and Poporis have banded together…and together they’ll fight a menace from beyond their world: the Argons, a metallic race from the Underworld. Unless stopped, they’ll destroy Arun and Shara, and then the dream will end for everyone.

Why do we still ask such questions. It's so common nowadays.
I really really dislike those god damn popori.
How does the fighting work? I know about the dodging, but does swinging your weapon work like in hack n slays?

[QUOTE=Tetsmega;21414648]Korean game with boobies.[/QUOTE]
Is there anything wrong with those?
Especially with the last one.
Fucking game is too awesome for words.
Aiming spells, combos, collision boxs for attacks, amazing artwork reminds me of final fantasy, whats not to like.

Get the fuck out of here free loader.
Look at the quality of this game, of course you're going to have to pay for it.
[QUOTE=XCIV;21417547]
How is the gameplay identical to wow? There's no targeting to begin with, plus the artwork makes me want to cry its so beautiful.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=kantz;21417841]i think he was being sarcastic[/QUOTE]
Oh, my bad, misread.
I guess i should repost what this is from the last thread. This is Lineage 3.
No Joke, NCSoft paid a company to create it, scraped the project, but the company went ahead and produced it by themselves anyway.
So if any of you have played Lineage 2, watch out, possible grind fest.

You're an Idiot.
oh really, explain.
[QUOTE]
In 2007 the Lineage 2 Team left because of a management issue of NcSoft and formed a company of their own, called BlueHole. They were working on the Lineage 3 Project when a key figure of their team was fired, and they all decided to leave.
After forming their own company they started materialising their efforts in a project called Project S1 wich later became TERRA: The Exiled Realm of Arborea, just the same MMORPG genre as Lineage 2 was and the similiraties are striking. Since they worked on Lineage 2 and the next Lineage 3 wich first was scheduled to make it s debute in 2009, this game of theirs, wich is very similar in terms of concept art to Lineage 2 (just see the city in the trailer wich is almost a copy of Rune) , can be considered a "what Lineage 3" would have been.
During last weeks Hangame Invitational 2009 Bluehole Studio unveiled a first trailer. The game is build on the Unreal 3 Engine and first beta testing is expected in late 2009 / early 2010.

All I am saying is, it is a korean game, which may be a possible grind fest, because it was made by a dev team used to making a grind fest type game.
Lineage 2 takes the longest amount of time out of almost all mmorpgs (maybe except eve) to reach max level. It takes of 5000 hours, to reach max level of 85.
I'm not insulting tera online, I definitely will play it, I am just saying there is a possibility that this will be the same mistake that happened with Lineage 2.
This is the one MMO I may actually consider paying monthly fees for.
What the fuck panda.
Not gonna write this one off just yet, but it looks like another Korean-grindfest type. I may be wrong, and really hope I am - it looks great.
Oh, & lol at the map.
hai guiz mah game haz bewbs and butts plz buy it
dude.
be a fucking panda
fuck yeah.
