Anyone else playing this? I'm on Feral Valley. Main name is Gabrinth.

The game is beautiful, the gameplay is amazingly intuitive and fun, and I've yet to dislike a character class.

Honestly, there are so many games coming out, and the betas all were fun, but this one takes the cake. I'm loving every second of it right now.

 

Gabrinth, did you play swtor on schien?

 

I had a level 50 on Swtor, but I can't remember what server I was on. Was it a fat zabrak sorcerer?

I think I was on Darth something, so it wasn't me.

 

Were you part of a guild named Empire, because if you were I need to give you major props for being the biggest pain in the ass to deal with in pvp.

 

Collectors Editon 30$ Worth buying?

Edit: Wow, I really thought the sale would be for more than a few hours.

 

Combat and ridiculously slutty character models and armor are the only real thing the game has going for it.

Crafting is a grind, gathering is a grind, quests are boring and the story is nonexistent.

 

So I figured I would put up a small news post for this thread. It turns out like just about every other MMO under the sun that isn't World of Warcraft, Tera is now going (and if I'm not mistaken already is) free to play. The details are in the link below for their model but from the cursory glance I gave it, it seems a hell of a lot more fair than the Old Republic's model.

Curious to see who might be getting into the game now that its free.

But yeah. The main thing (other than lack of free time) holding me back from playing TERA was the payment plan, especially in light of Guild Wars 2's substantially lower costs.

 

So we have a date for this now. The free to play version, TERA: Rising, launches on February 5. Seems like it'll be on Steam too.

I'm going to download it and give it another try now that it's going free, but I think it's probably a waste of time given that I have eight MMOs installed right now. Though one of them is shut down now (City of Heroes), so I guess I have an open slot. I just don't think I have the mindset to sit down and really get into an MMO anymore.

 

Muahahahahaha. The market claims yet another subscription mmo.

I guess I'll check it out when it launches.
