[QUOTE=TrannyAlert;36328487]Don't buy this I suggest playing the trial or wait for EU trial.[/QUOTE]
So you played it? I played it and still do, I own a subscription and I think the game is pretty fantastic. EU Is shitty anyways. NA has all there stuff an they were nice enough when they were having problems with the subscriptions starting to give free like 5-7 days to me till subs were fixed. En Masse is pretty damn good.
It looks good, but i hate the art direction.
Always wanted to try Tera, oh man those sexy girlies, gonna play as on[Tera is not available in Russia].
Whatever.
was looking forward to this game till i saw what it looked like
art style is hideous

i was so excited seeing the beta vids like a year ago with the incredible looking boss fights and i haven't felt this disappointed about a video game in a long time, especially hearing that the eu version is getting screwed over by the publisher

That's because the EU publisher is an asshole. The NA publisher (EnMasse) is actually really good.
That being said, I actually own the Collector's Edition of this game. Sure, you have the Elin, but they aren't the worst thing since Boku no Pico since they are only one of quite a few races. As for combat, it is all about finding something you enjoy playing. Sure, the quests are grindy, but it is an MMO and that will never change. Everquest? Had grind. WoW? Has grind. ANY MMO? Has grind. Fuck, even GW2 has grind and everyone says it doesn't. They just think it doesn't because they are in the form of world events. So you can't bitch about grind in an MMO because that is what they are always designed around.
Point is, don't bitch about an MMO for grind. Every MMO has it. There is no avoiding it.
The problem with Tera isn't that it's grindy, it's that the supposed unique combat doesn't offset the grindiness

I personally enjoy the combat. Then again, I am one of the highest DPS melee classes in the game, so that might be why :v:
[QUOTE=RichyZ;36361776]so i played again because im really bored and want to cut off my dick i guess
nope, still boring
i mean, the combat is essentially slice slice slice while circling the enemy[/QUOTE]
Implying that kiting isn't used in about every hack and slash game ever?
I hate it when games take something like a better combat system and think it excuses being poor in other areas. That seems to be what's going on with this game.

My only issue is with the crafting system, really. That shit is far too expensive for anyone to do reasonably.
[QUOTE=RichyZ;36361876]except in an actual hack and slash game, you have interesting combos, wacky ragdolls, and a more meaty/weighty attack feeling
in this, im kiting every fucking enemy, i have been for the last 2 hours, i quit and will uninstall[/QUOTE]
I like the way the weapons feel and there are interesting combos when you hit around level 20. Which honestly doesn't take all that long to get to.
[QUOTE=Fish_poke;36361862]My only issue is with the crafting system, really. That shit is far too expensive for anyone to do reasonably.[/QUOTE]
My problem is that the questing and game world is just as piss poor and bland as any f2p MMO.
If I wanted to do these shitty kind of quests, I sure as hell wouldn't pay a sub fee to do it.
I already played this during the beta. Could stand it for about 2 hours before getting fed up with it and quitting.
Main problems:
The Artstyle. Character design specifically.
[b]The fucking character design.[/b]
[b][highlight]THE FUCKING CHARACTER DESIGN. ALL THE WOMEN LOOK LIKE PROSTITUTES, EVEN THE LITTLE GIRL RACE.[/HIGHLIGHT][/b]
Grindy as fuck. Could barely tell I was playing an AAA quality pay to play MMO.
Combat system lacks weight and feels like any other point and click MMO.
If anyone has the slightest interest in this game, I suggest you try Raiderz when it starts its beta phase.
I have tried Tera and I think Raiderz simply is the better experience.
I laugh at the people that call it grindy. Getting to level 60 (the max level) in just a week by casually playing isn't a grind people.
The character design: Seriously? It's a Korean mmo do I even have to explain it? Of course the females are going to look like sluts.
I played RaderZ during the closed beta (or was it alpha?) and honestly I didn't see anything fun about it. For the expanse of 10 hours I had no idea what the fuck I was supposed to be doing.

...and apparently they tuned down the little girl race awfulness for the NA version

[QUOTE=sp00ks;36371173]what?[/QUOTE]
I have yet to play a korean (or asian for that matter) MMO where the female characters aren't sexualized to a massive extent.

Because you're being an ignorant dumbass? "Hurr durr you play as a class that looks like little girls, YOU MUST BE A PEDOPHILE"
I just posted how I don't get why someone would seriously want to play that and be that character, pretty sad in my opinion. Only the people who play them defend them.
They must all have the same strange mindset.

"I don't get why someone would play (insert race), pretty sad in my opinion"
Do you really not realize how opinionated your statement?
I kind of liked the Elin because they're cute, but the outfits are seriously off-putting.
I still don't think that justifies changing the game or censoring anything though, like in the NA version. I mean, shouldn't the developers get to choose what goes and what doesn't? If they want sexualized little girls with wide hips then wow, big deal.
My solution is that I tried the trial, decided it wasn't my thing and quit.
Pedophiles are usually attracted to the look of innocence anyways. Slutty clothes and wide hips are pedophile repellents as far as I know.

that doesn't change anything, it's still creepy as fuck.
Played this back in the beta, was shit then and still is now. Maybe to newcomers this kind of combat is enough for people, but I've played far too many MMO's with the same damn thing for this to impress me. It's like picking apples from an apple tree now.
Only good thing about this game is the loli race. A friend of mine hates them and has a phobia of anything loli like (or perhaps the concept of jailtime behind them). So naturally I made the most skimpy looking loli with the intent of following him everywhere. Good times.
The only thing this game has over a free game like Vindictus is that this isn't instanced (as much), and Vindictus is completely instanced dungeon running. The combat is way more fun in Vindictus, though.
there's literally no reason for there to be a loli race
i understand how the Elins fit into the storyline of Tera but it's still really fucking weird, for me, to play as a little catgirl thing. the market that eats this shit up is not NA or EU. by saying "well they're cute :3" or some other shit is silly, because for one that's subjective and two it's really fucking weird to think your character is adorable if you're a grown man
I'd say this is a good take on it.

well that's, kinda why most MMO's have several races
like, because not every race appeals to everyone
sheesh

it boils down to simple opinions as you pointed out yourself.

The scantily clad women are in there for sex appeal. The scantily clad 12 year olds are in there for the same reason.
One is fine, the other one is creepy to say the least.
