GodisaGeek: "TERA feels enough like a standard MMO, with all the trade skills, sessions of grinding, loot and dungeons, to get people that are die-hard MMO fans interested. The visuals are absolutely stunning and the combat is a nice change of pace from what we’re used to getting with this genre. On the other end of the scale, TERA feels different enough from all of the MMORPGs that we’ve been getting in recent years that a lot of people that have been sucked into the world of RPGs with titles such as Kingdoms of Amalur will find something interesting to do. That being said, there’s a chance that those people that haven’t come from other MMORPGs and are using TERA as their first foray into the popular genre, may feel a little bit bogged down; there’s a lot to do in the world and it’s going to take a hell of a long time to experience even a small part of it."
Long-running MMORPG Tera will be closing on June 30 and Gameforge and Krafton have published a video that serves as a farewell.
No fan wants to see Tera shutting down, but unfortunately, developer Bluehole is closing the game's servers (on PC, anyway) to work on other projects.
Good, this game was great when it launched, but it's been turned into a nightmare of a product since.
Some WoW-like MMORPGs are better than others. Here's a curated list that offers a wide variety of games that let you play with other people but have something unique to offer.
WoW is a mess and it will continue to be a mess. Still, the less-developed MMOs are going to have trouble gaining a fan base because they lack content right now. Even if people do flock to FF14 or BDO, they'll go back to WoW if they fix enough features or give players a shred of hope.
