I'm enjoying the game, but i didn't spend 50$. 30$ for my copy. 

I knew it wasnt going to be anythign spectacular. I played the Korean version and every beta. It just something to pass the time.

I also didn't even get a key.  The combat is great...wish more game were like this (though the whole hotkey thing take a little getting used to).  My main issue is that while the combat is great, everything else (crafting) is boring. So, there nothing else to do.  I still play, but the whole time I play, I have this thought in the back of my head thinking - while the combat is cool, at some point, it's going to get boring and then what?

Anyone know of a game which has much to do?  I know about WoW already (played for years) and VG (waiting to see how the P2W thing goes).

You didn't need a key for the open betas... I played them both, and decided not to get the game right away. It seemed like a great game and I may yet pick it up, but lack of things to do? What are you like 3 days into it?

Every game gets boring at some point, then what? Then you stop playing....

Saying you got tricked only makes you look stupid. They were completely open about what Tera was, you can even see roughly where it's going by looking at the Korean version. 

As others have commented  "I bought $50 of beer instead"

How long will $50 dollars in beer entertain you?  A night?  Two nights?  Maybe 3?  

I really didn't like Tera at first, but leveling 1-60 will take you a week or two and be enjoyable.  Then quit.

You now gotten more than $50 can buy you anywhere else.  Who cares if it isn't going to keep you for 6+ years?  What game does anymore?

WAR?  SWTOR?  AoC?  Every new MMO claims to be amazing and awesome, and fails.  GW2 will be NO different.  Buy it, play for a month at most, quit...

Same with Diablo 3, buy it, beat it, quit...

Ya, I guess thats a good way at looking at mmos now-a-days.  I guess I got use to the idea, they should be long lasting and what not.  Your right, though, even if I only play for a month, guess I got my moneys worth.

 There are going to be people reading this that like yourself had no idea about the game beforehand.  I'm asking this on their behalf:

 So you fought some things, got to the main city at 11 and didn't like the crafting, yes? Can I assume that you took the few days you played, assumed what the rest was going to be like and now come here with a anecdote? I just don't see what the point of this thread is.  From what you have provided one could easily say you never even played TERA.

 I personally don't care and your time is your own but those that will be pondering the 50.00 deserve better.

Lol, how true.^^

I had the chance to beta play and see it wasn't for me.

TERA is just tasteless, the game content except the combat is poor and the Asian art style just won't sale.

You were probably better off buying the game, beer is bad for you.

An hour or two, depending on what strip club I'm at.

LOL I am with you on that. Here is my impression of Tera so far....It's pretty. Thats it. I want my money back so bad. Its a regrettable purchase.

Seriously lore is just one small page ...

Thing is though, he's right.  There isn't much past the combat to pull one into this game aside from the pretty graphics and world pvp.  My question to you Deron, oh White Knight of Tera, what other aspects of the game are there to look forward to.  You cannot say BAMS an dungeons because most games have dungeons and BAMS are just elite elites that require a full party( for the most part).  The crafting is atrocious and costs an arm and a leg just to skill it up.  So....what else is there?  I truly am curious as all anyone has to do is look at what Korea has in the endgame and see what we have to look forward to, which to me, seems like more of the same.

sorry you think you wasted $50 OP.i,m sure like the rest of us you have wasted a lot more than that on games..in fact you probably spend twice that and more on a night on the piss..so it begs the question,why the thread.Tera should grab you when you start the game,but it does'nt,it starts getting you hooked about lvl 20+.thats the only downside.please excuse me now, i got to waste £200 on hookers,byeeee.
