Think you're looking into it too much honestly, I mean should you not the be poster child of "Do what makes you feel good, happy, complete?" I find it weird a gay guy has issue with something so minor.

I can't play a Male Cleric or Mage... Can't play a female Tank or Warrior... Just how I function. Others regardless to even if their purpose for the selection is the darkest and most evilily concievable notion... it's their preference and not anyones place to tell other wise.

Break rules, gets banned... strange concept.

any time something is popular, rebels must come out and oppose it by any means necessary. If it was a cash shop it'd be lack of raids, if no cash shop and no raid problems it'd be lack of kill 946 boars for teeth quests. There will always be something the rebels complain about.

I on the other hand enjoy any game, especially gw2 when it provides me with what I'm looking for. There is no such thing as a universal perfection, so someone being angry means nothing to me.

no... things don't need to be a black or white situation. Things never have to be black or white in any aspect of life. People merely choose the black or white path because it's easier to not worry about more than one side.

Think ima play WoW for the first time

People cant create their own stories anymore like they did in early mmo's. also the RPG part of MMORPG entails story. So you're wrong.

No... this game isn't for those too cheap to pay for subs or boxes... Although if you wish not to pay for such things and still want action oriented combat in an open world then you can. RaiderZ is a completely separate game than The Exiled Realms of Aborrea and should be treated and respected as such. Liking one will not mean you'll like the other.

IN MY OPINION PROS/CONS

Pros

Graphics are good for a f2p

Combat is fluid

World Bosses are fun group content

You obtain gear by killing things and looting their corpes for materials, making mob grind actually desireable

Cons

Clerics are basically useless due to how small their heals are, game pushes for the block dodge mechanics so they put little into the aspect of actual healing

Tank is currently worthless too due to the small hit box, although it has much more promise currently than the cleric; due to level cap you wont develop into a super tank so you might as well play a 2 hander or sorc.

You can aim right att a target and if they dont highlight with ranged spells you wont hit them even if the animation hits them, this isnt the case for melee attacks, just ranged

No ranger/rogue

You hit a bump in the road where the game is all group content or would be better suited as such, this is good or bad depending on the player.

The story scenes are of SNES quality

I wont read the official article because I do not want to hate another person for their greed and stupidity. If there were any additional dollars to be paid to voice acting when you're already an employee I hope she gets compensation... yet most likely shes just one of these I spilled hot coffee on my crotch... pay me for it type of people.

they avoided 10 million "Whens Release?" "Can I play now" "How do I Play" "Give me beta access!" and ect threads... bravo to them, more time to develop, less time spent moderating.

IB4 a player focuses his entire playstyle around healing and those recieving said heals love it.

goes to show.. people are upset and emotional far to easy.

TERA is overhyped. Just not as much as previous titles have been.

 

Sure... if over hyped means a year long silent period followed by the typical interviews and advertisements because a game is pushing launch... unless you think zero marketing sells more copies?

Hyping =/= Marketting. Try again, sir.

The thing that I find funny is that people complained hard about AOC not having full voice over after Tortage. Now they have SWTOR which is completely voiced over and they bitch because it has too much voice over and only the main story quest line should have been voice over. I mean, isn't that the exact what AOC does with its main story? I guess the grass is always greener lol.

 

As for it being innovative I don't think it really is and I also don't think it's all that great. All they did was take the exact setting from Dragon Age and Mass Effect and add it their MMO. Not like they reinvented the wheel here.

 

That is just my opinion on the matter of course.

 

I don't think people are complaining about the voice overs but rather the lack of anything innovating/good beside the voice overs.

I mean if you remove the voice acting and class story line from this game then what do you have left?

same linear theme park dozens of other companies offer? Oh and people still pay to play them too!

Exactly, hence why people say it is not innovative. I mean you can eat the same type of cake that many times before you get sick of it.

yeah but people refuse to back anything but Theme Parks... I understand what people are saying but I made peace with the fact that I'd be playing Theme Parks for many years when WoW hit 12 million subs. I had some fun adventures in AoC, Warhammer, Aion, Rift, SWTOR and a dozen others but... everytime I spent my money on something outside the theme park genre I found myself greatly disappointed... Darkfall (Hackers/Exploiters/No skillcap/ Macroers) Mortal Online (rofl... alpha?) Xyson (no...) I mean... these companies literally designed their games like they don't have any experience in the genre and have no idea what people want. 2012/2013 looks promising soo maybe the action based theme parks or hybrid sandboxes will add life to a stale genre.

[mod edit - let's stay on topic!]
