Best new MMORPG on the planet!

User Rating: 10 | TERA PC

If you're tired of WoW, no longer interested in LoTRO, and SWTOR didn't quite keep you engaged, then Tera is your game! Yes, it's a little different but mostly in a good way. They do use "Asian style controls", and it is a bit odd in graphics compared to most American style MMOs. But the graphics are fantastic. I really think they are the best so far in any MMO. There are a number of small features that take a lot of the tediousness out of MMO playing. Simple things like no wait to mount a horse. Once you choose to mount, you are there and going. I never understood the need for waiting anyway. Many things in Tera have removed these stupid wait times.

Like I said before, the graphics are stunning! The areas are large and well laid out. The lands are not quite as explorable as like in WoW or Rift, which seem to allow you to venture just about every nook and cranny. But there's plenty to search out and find. Collections are simple, and as another nice feature the game doesn't limit your crafting abilities. Learn them all, and master them all at once.

Only few bad things are the fast travel between areas is an annoying warp tunnel thing. With the beauty of this land, why do they take away from it by doing this stupid warp thing? And the controls are different and will take some time to learn. But they work great.

Few games I'd give a 10 score. This one earns it for me. It's fun and addicting. The story line is even quite good.

    So I played the beta for this game and thought it was decent enough for me to try this game out. Considering Ive tried almost every other MMO I thought might as well give this a chance. There are some definitely amaz... Read Full Review
