 Let's take a look at this photo of a few Tera characters in a city:

 

 

A running player with a sword on his back that's so big it's dragging the ground and that also goes about three feet over his head. Not to mention the weapons get even larger as they are held and swung for combat.

Oh, and don't forget about that cuddly bear looking NPC that has an Axe on his back thats not one, not two, but three times the height of it's character!

Ya, no stupid overboard graphics here lol.

 

 

this is called Fantasy...

Dude why are you raging so much....You don't care for the game, fine we get it. 

Move on to a game that you really like.  Because no one likes a troll.

You call that raging? Man, people are too sensitive. In my original post, I said I would like the game to succeed. I will most likely give the game a try. Heck, even I gave Aion a try. But within the first 5 minutes of playing I knew that game was garbage ;). All this leads up to having a discussion that doesn't completely involve rampant fanboi'ism. People get these super expectations of future games built up in their head like they are the best thing ever without even playing the game. Don't talk bad or critique my future game, that's blasphemy!

I played AOC and i think Tera has better if not on par looks. As far as other things they are just icing on the cake.....ie dx10 godrays, shadows and such.

Tera has a huge western staff as well thats is there to development story, quest and tweak it more for a western player base.

I find it funny that they had to make a seperate Western design staff to actually make content. How the Asians can sit their mindlessly grinding away to advance with no skill or depth to the game amazes me.

You gotta understand this game is made for the east market and the weeaboos on the west. Just like Aion only weeaboos will support the over-sized weapons, character screaming like 10 year old girls etc...

If Tera is Lineage 3 - we can expect heavy grind.

I have no problem with heavy grind.

I do have problem with booring heavy grind.

The Asian art style of a 70 pound tiny little warrior girl swinging around a 20-foot long 300 pound sword is completely retarded. I mean sure this is fantasy and you can exagerate some, but there has to be a limit somewhere before things become stupid. 

This is the only problem I have with this game as well. Seeing a 90 lbs female (or male for that matter)  wielding a 200 lbs axe just kills immersion for me. Other than that I can't wait.

I have yet to meet a person that plays or does not play a game because of immersion.  Entertainment yes, Immersion not so much.

Many people play to be immersed in the game world - it's why they make a themed game world in the first place.  However, immersion is bound to be broken at some point.  As soon as you look at your abilities to see which attack would do more damage in what situation, as soon as you bring up your in game chat box, an ui menu, etc - so that allow isn't necessarily a strong reason to stop playing any particular game.

Yea reading a book or paper & pen games give good immersion and maybe throw in a well made SP game.  But mmo's tend to break very early in the game.  Back ground stories and quest lines just don't cut it.

Only one's that may get immersion out of a mmo is the RP crowd.

That game wont succeed in the west for sure. These asian models are way too much on usual asian stereotype.

huge 5 foot long weapons, half naked equipment for woman, annoying noise everytime they strike(specially on female part) So on model part, its a loss for the western. I really dont like these animation and the graphix is too bright, too much color.

On the gameplay, usual asian grind is what i expect so its a no. Combat itself really sux and these knock down are super annoying while pvp. The dodge system is not genious at all.

Played DF trial for 2 weeks none stop. Check out my pvp video during trial.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJnU_JEqKRM
So you can stop posting that i played DF only for 2 weeks over and over again.

Not true. You never played darkfall. A game where you can lose your stuff on death add a lot of immersion since you will do anything to stay alive, looking around you while traveling. DF got no instance and its a huge world. This is immersion.

Again not true at all. People jumped all over Aion knowing what it looked liked when it come out and it had everything you mentioned. I have yet to see a review of Aion where they said the Graphics or Art Style was bad. The only way this game will not succeed if its a typical Korean grindfest. If this game is full of content and keeps people having fun while playing it will be a success. Just because you dont like something dont say that everybody in the west wont like it because of that reason.

Your confusing immersion with awareness, big difference.
