    I personally feel like TERA is boring as hell. I can't stand it, and that's mostly because I've played SW:TOR. Unlike you, I feel like SW:TOR is the right direction for MMO's. They could do things better with it, sure but that's the case with any game, and mostly based on opinions and preferences rather than there being truly something wrong with the game. It feels like an MMO, it plays like an MMO, it's fluid and well polished for the most part for a brand new MMO built off a brand new engine from a company that's never done an MMO before. The quest system is vastly improved from what we're so used to, which is a drab and uncreative, pointless uphill trek rather than an enjoyable and engaging experience which SW:TOR provides for probably the first time in MMO history. I've seen people leave the game, and come back and say they can't play other games now thanks to that game so BioWare is clearly doing many things right. Considering they've got almost 2 million subscribers at this point, and yes that is accurate despite what you might be lead to believe, TERA won't come close to that, and should SW:TOR drop off over time, it's still a really good MMO compared to everything else out there right now. For it to launch with even one million subscribers after it's first month is ridiculously good, and hasn't been matched yet by any game, even WoW launched with 350k players, and stayed that way for the first year of it's release and even saw a drop off for a while. So all this "SWTOR IS BAD" crap can f*ck off til there's any real basis for that, I'm so over it.

    TERA on the other hand provides a profoundly dull, and repetitive leveling experience with absolutely 0 feeling of involvement in anything going on in the game world, the animations are cool, the graphics are actually not AS good as they look in a screenshot, even maxed out, something about them look profoundly plastic and...Off.... It runs great for me, but it looks and feels like an old game. I'm tired of MMO's that present a pretty world to look at with virtually no real sense of being a world at all, whether that be presented in a decently in depth story (preferably for me) or otherwise. The combat is cool for 10 minutes, but really in the end all it does is make every encounter feel and look the same. Overall I think this game is going to fail as a subscription game in the U.S. and Europe within a couple months, and that's being liberal with my time allotment on this title.

    I know I'm gonna get flamed by TERA fanboy's but if you think this game is going to be more successful than SW:TOR or any other major title in recent history or the near future I'm going to rofl at you in a few months when it's faring far worse than any of them.

    SW:TOR was fun in the beginning it really was but after a while i could have sworn i was playing a consol game with oddly named NPC's running around as i did my story quests. All in all SW:TOR is the standard MMO with a SW skin and becaus of that very reason it will never die. Just like how it took years for FF10 to final take its last breaths the same will be true for SW:TOR because you are in the SW universe that you have always wanted since you were little, it doesnt matter if the game is a stand alone decent MMO, the simply aspect of it being SW will make you love it. But in the end my personal opinion is that Tera is just a smoother and funner game. Sure it may never touch the numbers of WoW, GW2(soon), or SW:TOR, but those who will play it will do so cause they feel like the realms of Arborea is their Galaxy far far away (or azaroth for the more job oriented sadists, lol jk)

    Sucks that people won't realize how shit this game is until they get to endgame and played it for 2 months and realize that PvP is broken as fuck and it's worse than any WoW expansion as far as RNG is concerned. Insanely bad class balance, lock-on skills, tedious enchancting system and the most meaningless guild wars system ever. Glad I had the chance to play that period on a korean account. This is no better than SWTOR and once peoples honeymoon goggles wear off they'll all go GW2.

    I am actually LMAO right now, there are still Swtor fans? wierd how people can still play such a bad and bland game, Swtor has those similar quest, even worse its like a single player blocked off game? who the fuck likes that (no one) i wouldnt be surprised if it has less then 500 thousand subs. TERA is the direction of future mmo's, everyone dont listen to this idiot, unless you like single players with graphics less comfortable then wow, then feel free and play swtor, But if you want a quality game, real combat, real environment and real content, then come play TERA.
