Why did TERA die?
Every wow clone died because wow already existed and people weren't going to quit a game they were already invested in and all their friends played.
>>740274292Looks like gachaslop. There is a limited market of virgin neckbeards suffering extreme delusions. Have you tried honkers: stars railed? Perhaps Zoomer Zone Zero?
>>740274445>wow cloneBut that's not TERA.
Unreal Engine 3
>>740274292Blue Hole got into legal trouble and had to bail on everything, and EnMasse had no fucking clue how to steward the game. worse: The people in charge of EME hated the fact they ran an anime titty game and spent MOST of their time trying to pivot to TERA being a hardcore PVP game (it's not why anyone played it). That is why EME went under: They got another game called "Alliance of Valiant Arms" which was an F2P FPS and they pivoted full-on into that because it was "gritty and hardcore". Nobody played it. when they tried pivoting back to TERA they ruined it in an attempt to hyper-casualize it. To the point where dungeon bosses died in one hit. No other video game product was ever as mismanaged as TERA and never let anyone like this fuckwit here >>740274445 tell you that it died because people weren't interested in it. They were and it was profitable.
>>740274479yes it is
>>740274446fucking retard, this game precedes those fuckfests by like 13 fucking years
>>740274446>Looks like gachaslop. It's the only good action MMO ever made. There are dozens of games that have little bits and pieces of TERA, the action combat, the diverse set of characters, the sexy costumes, the social events, the nicely designed cities. None of them have all of it in one like TERA did. It was a perfect storm of every good thing about the 2000s to 2010s MMO boom rolled into one. Then it was mismanaged and died.
>>740274292Wasn't it money problems with the company or something?
>>740274687NTA no it's not, it's defining feature is that it played nothing like wow and didn't appeal to people that liked wow, it's closest competitor was guild wars 2.
>>740274760Bluehole (parent company)'s developers went to jail for stealing secrets from NCSoft when they left, if that's true or not was never proven because the Korean definition of 'stealing secrets' is as nebulous as 'he got training at our company and went somewhere else'. with bluhole out of the picture the game had a skeleton crew keeping it running and the rest fell into the lap of the American lolcowizers: Enmasse Entertainment. Their history is a lolcow story on its own. They got into the industry to pick up "hardcore PVP games" and had no idea Elins or Popori were even in the game. They effectively fell for a trailer scam of Baraka and Castanic men fighting with big swords and snatched it up. Then spent their next few years trying to distance themselves from it as they picked up more and more gigaflops that never had more than 100 concurrent players.
>>740274292Because it's MMO slop
>>740274979>Japanese Shadman
>>740274770>Plays nothing like wow>hotkeysI'd wager that modern wow and tera have similar playstyles nowadays
You literally posted it. MMOs are social games. How's this for a pitch to your friends.>do you guys want to come play a game with me? It's got half naked bunny girls that look like grade schoolers.No thanks.
>>740275018you'd be wrong. also pretty dumb for thinking hotkeys make up the combat. it's like saying valorant or overwatch play like wow because they have hotkeys
>>740274760It runs on a old ass version of UE3 that has a ton of security exploits like RCE malware. Epic no longer provides support for UE3. The devs never migrated the game to newer Unreal Engines.
>>740275079>it has 20 abilities on hotkeys but it plays nothing like wow
>>740275043despite this the half naked bunny girls were the most popular race and literally kept the game alive way past its primeMMOs were already niche games for nerds and nobody thought better of you for playing the game full of half naked elves vs half naked bunny girls
>>740275018Dumbest fucking post I've read in awhile
>>740275127man you're a fucking retard
ugly generic hags and shitty real time combat that was so shit it might as well have been tab target. elins saved it but they're still ugly gazelle alien abominations so a niche but loud desperate community momentarily sustained it because of it leeching off a better sexo (schoolgirl swimsuit)
>>740275204i dont see 20 hotkeys
>>740274661>The people in charge of EME hated the fact they ran an anime titty game and spent MOST of their time trying to pivot to TERA being a hardcore PVP gamePrefacing that I'm no expert, but I would imagine that's why something like FFXIV has stayed popular despite having periodic issues. It has engaging cooperative PVE and isn't afraid to keep presenting itself as a social space.
>>740275243>ugly generic hags> elins saved it but they're still ugly gazelle alien abominations just use the sliders bro. they give you the tools to make good stuff and people still complain
>>740275043had a friend that pushed me to play tera years and years ago. I wanted to play the big rock guy but he threw a shit fit and wanted everyone in the friend group to play elin he eventually trooned out shocker I know
>>740275129It wasn't a big enough player base to keep it afloat, though, and the only thing that confirms is that for the most part, the only people who are going to be interested in playing the fucking thing are the people who enjoy that sort of thing. Nobody else wants it within 200 yards of their persona.
>>740274292Korean devs are the greediest people on Earth. They can't make a game without adding pay to win, or pay for convenience features and a bloated cash shop to everything. In Tera's case you had to buy some cash shop item to help ensure you didn't lose the gear you were upgrading, because any upgrade after a certain point had absurdly low chances of success. When the game went free to play the cash shop got even more aggressive, because they didn't have a monthly sub to rely on anymore. They also made stupid race locked classes too and that pissed people off.
>>740275043Oh boy I sure love retarded revisionism garbage from people that haven't even played the fucking game.
>>740274292level 70 expansion was dogshit and the 48 hour rollback lost a lot of players
>>740274445Tera was the only mmo that wasnt a wow clone. The battle mechanics were fun as fuck especially tanking
>>740274292because when I went to try it again they added a faggot retard tutorial section so I alt+f4'd
>>740275308TERA did too, note: Did. The selling point for TERA in Korea, Europe, and Japan were the world bosses and overworld cooperative combat. BAMs were roaming world bosses that became problems for newer players that they were expected to find groups to accomplish, and this system was great. A good player COULD solo these things. A normal player could form a party and take these on. It's how most socialization in the game happened. EME are the fuckups, here. They're the ones that wanted to portray this as a hardcore PVP game. So much so that later versions of the game made these monsters one-hit-instant-kill, because they intimidated new players. Instead of leaning in on the fact they had a strong co-op game, they would rather kill the game on their terms with their marketing. It became such a problem that the old versions of teh game no longer exist. All of the private servers run versions that existed after the great culling of all the features people liked. Then they pivoted into a F2P shooter no one played and went bankrupt and shut the game down.
>>740275380i fucking """"""transbian""""" pieces of shit, also had the same problem with blue protocol, fucking autistic tantrum throwing troons always fuck shit up
>>740275423I'm literally telling you why I never played it and why absolutely nobody I know played it. It's not revisionist. Everyone at my job dropped fucking Genshin for the same reason. They saw people being lolifags about it and they just kinda threw the thing away.
>>740275395>It wasn't a big enough player base to keep it afloat, thoughIt did thoughbeitover o algo or whatever shartyfags like you keep repeating because you like lying about everything. EME went under because they went all-in on a game that WAS a massive failure, stealing all the funds TERA players were paying. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alliance_of_Valiant_ArmsI'm sure you'll make up more bullshit about how TERA deserved it.
>>740274446zoom zoom
>>740275604>I'm literally telling you why I never played it and why absolutely nobody I know played it. It's not revisionist.You are revisionist. No MMO was ever going to make WoW numbers, and nobody viewed WoW players as being 'normal' despite being the largest base of MMO players.
>>740275604I mean that obviously didn't happen toGe shin so you're just being a retarded coping tourist kys
>>740274292good combat, cute/cool characters, but the game was monetized to fuck
>>740274292TERA would have died earlier had it not been for the Elins. Remember that the devs are Koreans and their view of KMMO is that they last for 2 years, milk everyone of their money, then make a another one.
>>740274292Mismanaged to fuck. Only MMO I played that actively removed more content than the game even had live at any given time. As the game spiraled and they got more desperate, they gutted systems that players actually enjoyed like dyes, and PvP while leveling, to cater to whales and dumb casuals. They had guild housing at one point and then completely removed it too. The decisions they made were genuinely baffling to behold. Every publisher that picked it up only seemed to add more pay to win systems until finally the remaining population was too low to keep the servers sustained.
>>740274292Company and developer mismanagement. Most common reason games that make more than 1 million dollars end up dying.
>>740275772Don't forget they started just outright making bosses and dungeons one-hit-instant-kill just because they couldn't be assed to keep the matchmaking systems online. The whole game became about rushing to 80 and then cutting all the content at 80.
>>740275018it's an action based game not a tab target auto-attackeris dragon age a WoW clone because it has hotkeys when playing with KBM? fucking retard
>>740274292pedobux could only sustain the game for so longit was also a negative feedback loop where elins kept getting new shit while everything else sat rustingmost devs learned from this and pivoted into gacha>>740274479it's a wow clone with slightly more responsive delay-based combat
>>740275395>It wasn't a big enough player base to keep it afloat, though, and the only thing that confirms is that for the most part, the only people who are going to be interested in playing the fucking thing are the people who enjoy that sort of thing. Nobody else wants it within 200 yards of their persona.Nobody puts MMOs on "their persona" you retarded fucking normalfag, wow players were spit on back in the day. TERA, TOR, and GW2 were a few of the most popular MMOs that weren't WoW and it made millions. It died because the devs drove their company off a cliff.
>>740274292It was a dogshit korean MMO with the usual korean problems (extreme p2w, RNG item upgrades, daily/weekly timegating, etc) that was going to EoS due to its freefalling population. It then added elins and coom outfits for elins while pandering to them with exclusive classes, so it was able to push EoS away for another two years before finally dying.The vast majority of TERA shills either never played any other MMOs, or got groomed into ERP thanks to Elins.
>>740275702Genshin is also a gacha model that relies more on whales paying thousands instead of a large number of small subscriptions. It's probably the only way you can make pedo stuff profitable, just siphoning neetbucks out of deranged people that'll pay any price.>>740275631Tera was operating on a loss when it shut down. They discontinued it because they wanted to try and hop on the success of pubg with their own shooter. You could argue it was a bad move, but the reason these games don't match WoW's numbers isn't because doing that is impossible, but because the proper care isn't put into crafting the game itself, the lore, or the social aspects. They're all made to be disposable, and so was tera.
police car mount
>>740275770not elins but japs, japs saved it with their great fetishes and actually making cute ones u like westoid troon players
>>740275951>>740275262>it's a wow clone>20 hotkeysshartynigs need to up their trolling game if they want to pretend to have played these games.
Elins were great but not even their thick thighs and fat asses could save that game.
>>740274661I don't know... Tera had interesting combat, but even so it got boring after some time. The game had many issues besides the mismanagement.
I wish I could play Tera now that I've been getting good at OCs.
I remember BAMs being fun. Then I quit for whatever reason, and later heard they killed off BAMs...
I tried tera classic and i don't get why people heavily glazed the game's combat desudragon nest released at a similar time and it was much more fluid
>>740276104Elins is the main reason for that and what the Jap ask for, retard.
>>740276047>Tera was operating on a loss when it shut down.Citation needed, source is: "I made it the fuck up"EME was operating at a loss, not TERA. They literally threw their company onto the rocks of a game called "closers" that I doubt you ever heard of or played, but they spent close to $5 millions localizing it:https://web.archive.org/web/20210127233916/https://kotaku.com/en-masse-entertainment-is-shutting-down-1844755092At the end of its life in 2022 there were enough players in Europe to justify porting the game over to the EU servers. TERA outlived EME and you're a lying, revisionist faggot
>>740276145>short teenager goblinsthats just another part that contributed to why it died, that community is a hyper miniscule subset of hagfags
terahaters are underage wowdrones albeit
>>740274729You didn't play Dragon Nest, which perfected the action MMO formula. TERA's is good, though, I won't disagree. But Dragon Nest knew how to make every attack have weight, feel impactful, and also made movement feel great for multiple different playstyles. TERA on the other hand came into its own because of BAMs (which soon got hit with the kmmo virus) and the high end dungeons. Pvp there was nice, too.
>>740276249nah japs only get credit, no other server was based enough to salvage elin with good costumes like them
>>740274292It's the same story with Ragnarok Online.Korean developers make an amazing game and then try to pivot it to something it isn't. Well having half your dev team fuck off is also bad.In Teras case they had a sandbox Action game that they then forced everyone to go to endgame.In Ragnaroks Case they believed their open sandbox horizontal itemization was bad and that everyone wanted Endgame content and easy builts like WoW. >>740275604People dropped Genshi because of loli thats one of the best conspiracy theories I've heard to date.
>>740274729>It's the only good action MMO ever madekek >>740276031 really fucking called it
>>740274292It's a shit game and a horrible MMOThat's why, stupid tranny
>>740274292ugh problematicUh in seriousness skill played too great a role. Good players could get by with worse gear and you can't nerf them too hard or bads with good gear will just die. So the game fucked over both casuals and sweats meaning people left.
>>740276254>thats just another part that contributed to why it died>literally the reason it survived> that community is a hyper miniscule subset of hagfags>Literally some of the best big titty elves in gaming Diagnosis: you're a faggot
>>740276145elves were hotter
>>740276137anon, i was there 3000 years agoit was a wow clone with the camera control always enabled (holding right-click in wow) so it felt more responsive than it actually was
>>740276251Krofton published a financial report when it went public, blue hole had begun operating at a loss at around that time, and share holders wanted pubg results. Simple as.
>>740276346>>740276031> that was going to EoS due to its freefalling population. It then added elins him and you are faggots who never even touched the game, and you can tell because neither of you realize Elins were in the game since day 1. They were in closed beta. Nobody 'added' Elins to a freefalling game. At its peak, it had 25 million players. https://web.archive.org/web/20210127233916/https://kotaku.com/en-masse-entertainment-is-shutting-down-1844755092fucking kek >>740275631 really called it
>>740276453you can't call a game with action combat a wow clone anon, that just doesnt make any sense
>>740275864>one aspect of combat is slightly different>IT'S NOTHING AT ALL LIKE WOWyou fags are exhausting
>>740276543>action combatit was positioning and waiting on cooldowns, mechanically the same as wow. vfx and active camera control did all the heavy lifting to make it feel more responsive than it actually wasyou can trace these techniques directly into gacha
>>740276453For me tab targeted single combat was a wow clone. Tera wasn't that.To this day I don't enjoy Tab target combat because I grew up playing Diablo 2 and Ragnarok Online and these days I play PoE 1 and 2. I'm used to leveling by killing billions of monsters with Aoe Skills.FFXIV was okay and I playd it for over 10 years but dungeons and non boss combat is something I never enjoyed. Only the raids had good content and then it was the mechanics not me doing my silly rotation.
>>740276663being absurdly reductionist is convincing absolutely no one hereenjoy this last (You) from me
>>740276610yes, that's right. The gameplay distinction is what separates rpgs from shooters
>>740276747the very clip you posted is literally wow combat with camera shake
>>740276453>anon, i was there 3000 years agono you weren't, you wouldn't say such stupid shit as "it's a wow clone". there are servers hosting TERA up right now, so lying about it doesn't work.
>>740276543i played tera at launch so idk if they ever changed anything, but the only action i ever did was pressing block and charging up whirlwind. everything else was a 1 button macro
>>740274292Mismanagement.I never got to play it, but I saw a lot of Tera fans who hated late stage Tera.
>>740276663You didn't play the game. It plays nothing like wow.
>>740276518ah yes, because reaper and ninja didn't exist and elin totally weren't pushed when the game took its first population hit
I shudder to think of what Tera would be in the modern day had it survived until today.I'm just mad that the pserver scene is completely ruined because of one autist.
>>740276543You just reminded me how pissed off I got once they started race-gating new classes. And in the end, Elins got every class anyway. I don't give a fuck if you're a lolicon, but the game abandoning everyone else pushed me away.
Shartroons like to lie about everything, especially when it let's then fulfill their pedohysteria virtue signaling goal.

To the retarded sharty brownoid making a fool of himself here, I was a wow player and didn't like Tera specifically because of the action combat (my friend played it tho)They are nothing alike

Good ES evening.

>>740274292>Frequent mismanagement from not only the devs, but the western publishers>Devs got fucked by NCsoft lawsuits>Typical MMO story of game getting worse and worse with each patchA decent enough modern MMO with good combat is all it really needed to be, and it was for a while. It was probably one of the last MMOs with lots of races and classes to choose from. Now the few MMOs that release are either human only, or the """classes""" are just Diablo/Overwatch characters

>>740277532Hello my brown friend! You seem to have misunderstood the conversation! Your other brown friend is claiming that TERA, an action MMO, was a wow clone, wow being a tab-target MMO! Calling it bad was never said! Hope that helps!
>that one Baraka roleplayer that hit on every "girl" player and mods in the forumssomeone post fucking ulboarax I know you niggers are in here
I tried playing it but the rotations are too complicated so I gave up. Tried the spear angel lady class and the dual ranged scythe loli class
>>740277541>atlyssthat's another good game, it's a shame that the aesthetic puts a lot of people off because I think it could become a fairly big mmolite if more people were willing to give it a chance
>>740274292isn't the console version of this still up?
>>740277430>lol i played the game before youyet you don't know dick about how the game played. did your parents drop you on your head? here was the /a/ guild the day before the last official servers shut down.

>>740276929>finally gave one of my most wanted classes (brawler) to my favorite race (popori) like a week before the game shutdown on PCFelt like a slap to the face on the way out.
>>740277591are you ESL, or are you genuinely retarded enough to not understand the insinuation that calling a game "a shitty wowlike" is inherently a derogatory statement?
>>740277537>>740277430I didn't catch that HE WAS IN THE FUCKING REDDIT GUILDLiteral redditor trying to lecture us how the video game plays

>>740277487Damn, I'd post his freaky albino picture if I were home right now.
>>740277537>>740277674that is a rando party member to fight the BAMbut it is funny to me that you know that particular guild
>>740277487Why do you think the game just fucking died when everyone was forced there? Nobody wanted to play on EU servers on an action game because everyone's pings were instantly 400ms+ and you had to play with autists even worse than fucking Wolfy
>>740277678>pettan coall 2 of you?
>>740277757Wrong, he's in your guild. >but it is funny to me that you know that particular guildBecause we played the game and warred against the reddit guild constantly. You'd know that if you did. So go back to where you >>>/r/eddit belong
>>740277267I hope the rumors and shit about TERA 2 are real, and by some miracle they don't fuck it up this time.I hope, but I don't expect it.
>>740277757>but it is funny to me that you know that particular guildyeah? why wouldn't the 4chan guild know the reddit guild? we made half of them quit the game.
>>740277601Should've played berserker.Your rotation is basically just one button that makes you run at mount speed in combat while doing all of your damage, and you just have to avoid dying with no access to iframes while using it.At least until they got the one iframe roll while charging, that made your one button hit even harder.
Remember when NFA raped the ever loving shit out of the reddit guild + the RO PVP guild (Sunless) in guild wars and, as a cherry on top, snatched the first Tirkai Vanarch election from them and made their leader quit? GOOD TIMES
>>740277807if we were in the same guild the other party member would also have the same tag, but there's no tag because they're randosi'm just glad you've come around to believing the screenshots are authentic now that you've incorrectly thought you could use them discredit me another way
>>740277002>>740276913ok then why did you say "that was going to EoS due to its freefalling population. It then added elins"It had elins day 1, Elins got classes because it was the race most of the playerbase played.
>>740277943was that the big 2handed axe one? it seemed kinda dull from preview, just saw someone spinning around and around for DPS, the spear and scythes seemed more fun but too much complications with specifics
>>740277998>i'm just glad you've come around to believing the screenshots are authentic I didn't say that lmao. glad that you're aware of how fake your 'credibility' is. A level 30, 31 character from what looks like the level 38 capped CBT3.
>>740277958>Remember when /a/ helped too. imagine two boards at odds with each other, culturally, bro-ing it up making heart shaped photoshoots while beating the shit out of uppity forumfags trying to sabotage them. it was kino
>>740277958Who was that buttbuddy guild to Sunless, the one that got them roped into everything like they were Pinky and the Brain? It wasn't World Boss, I knew the GM and he was pretty cool (he was a furfag tho, SlayerS_Foxer, yes Foxer and not Boxer)
>>740278109that was Aphotic kek, they were the ones who tried to spoil the heart photoshoot then proceeded to get thoroughly shitstomped
>>740278092TFT + NFA's buddy cop/gay rivalry was kino. I wish I could bring it all back but honestly: It's best these memories stay untainted.
>>740278029yes, berserker is infamously the retard class
>>740277678I remember playing with Pettan Co. on CBT3, fun times
>>740277757>>740277430>EVEthat is an actual tab targeted game >>740276453>its a wow cloneno screenshot you post will make up for saying something so remarkably stupid while praising EVE online.

>>740278210>>740277678to your credit, I still remember that one bong who madeavideo about warrior tanking that changed the meta on that
The great thing about TERA wasn't the game, it was the community.

>>740278269>ulboaraxslayer of animes, funny enough him and a bunch of NFA jumped on BDO just after TERA moved to EU and that was the last time I ever saw him
>>740278391Buns were important for TERA
>>740278080oh, so that's where the goalpost is now>>740277510TERA was a fun wow clone that drew in a crowd that was an odd mix of wow haters and people too invested in their waifu characters. the servers going down was probably traumatizing and it shows in the type of replies here
>>740274292Because of this race in particularI remember uninstalling this game after getting into town and seeing 90% of the players playing as this trash
>>740278540>goalpostyou're not even playing in the stadium, you stole some images and said some stupid shit about a game that still has servers. Sorry sharty. you got outed instantly. you should just quit while you're behind.

>>740278671Imagine playing wow for the first time and expecting an epic adventure to only get in stormwind and see most of the players playing as pic related
>>740278574Gay
>>740278767Nta, but I get you. Though, at the same time, that is a kind of underage mindset.
>>740274292Catering to pedos isn't enough to make the game sustainable. And besides moving away from tab targeting, TERA was a bog standard Korean grindfest, plus both Western publishers were retarded in different ways.
>>740278380>>740278446>ulboarax
>>740278767They already do, and worse: you're now treated to races that are even more disgusting than when that picture was taken.The current hotness in WoW is this.
>>740278767Let me give you a better image of the wow community.Imagine playing wow for the first time and expecting an epic adventure to only get in stormwind and see most of the players playing as pic related
>>740278767Meanwhile Lineage 2, which is still cooking along after 25 years, the major player race in that is this.
>>740278884>Catering to pedos isn't enough to make the game sustainable.Not only was it sustainable, it was profitable. the parent company committed suicide
>>740274292cause it was a shitty game
>>740278948>>740278916why did WoW cater to furries
>>740278823Meet my wife
>>740274479tera is just wow except the zones are a straight line and you have to look in the general direction of your target instead of pressing tab
>>740278948atlyss is a good game thoughbeit
>>740274292I don't need Tera 2 to be successful, if it does end up being successful then awesome, I just need modern day artists to get their hands on the model for SFM reasons
What this thread is really telling me is that zoomers, who never played these games, have extremely strong opinions about how they were like and what they were and will attempt to convince people who were actually there what it was like in their mind.
>>740278603i thought my last (You) was several replies agoam i a redditor? am i a sharty?it seems to change from post to post>>740278671there's nothing wrong with the race itself, but when the vast majority of your playerbase is elins and the majority of your funding is from elins you have a problem
>>740279056>you have to look in the general direction of your target instead of pressing tabthen it's not a wow clone, if you have to direct your abilities then it's not wow. holy shit, you could say this about literally any game, even shooters.what a stupid fucking thing to say
>he's still sperging out and defending the game
>>740279045Literally no MMO caters to furries, it's an untapped market and WOW is trapped in an eternal rush to endgame raiding and glam hunting anyway
>>740278959Far from being a coombait
>>740279140>i thought my last (You) was several replies agonah, different guy, i like watching you desperately try to convince people you were 'there' but you don't even know how the game plays or bother clicking the links to see how it plays
>>740279045Because to some people furries are LGBT adjacent, so yeah
>>740279196i'm noting that (You) ignored the rest of the post

>>740279162It's literally a loli. Female dwarves are lolis, and they all have matching outfits with the elves. Their heavy armor is literally bikini armor at later levels.
>>740279295>i'm noting that (You) ignored the rest of the postwhy would I read the post of some faggot trying to pose as an "oldfag" but not know how the game plays? you're a redditor sharty. there.>>740279317>if tera was half as good as he said it was, the game would still be aliveIt is.https://terastarscape.com/not that you would know, never having played it and all.
>>740276543TERA really was the only MMO with good combat, fuuuuckAnd it wasn't a pvp arena game like that other chibi KMMO, it had a full ass world and dungeons. It was a good video game bros, it transcended the MMO genre because you'd hop on literally just to have fun playing the game rather than to grind for the sake of grinding like every other MMO
>>740279380>private serversconcession accepted
>>740279317>just ignore the schizo,The one saying the action MMO is a WoW Clone? That's the only schizo in this thread. >if tera was half as good as he said it was, the game would still be aliveIt's actually better than he's saying it was. The game was murdered.

>why do MMO's dieThat is, literally, core to the game genre's design -- to fleece and then to fail.
>>740279504Lineage II dwarf female was never a loli, stfu
>>740279504the normies problem with TERA was that the armors on the guys looked fugly, yet the chicks had sexy clothes all over, most other MMOs had tasty fan service female clothing even with Loli content. TERA was just considered "fan service without any other reason." therefore "problematic."
>>740279610>given multiple instances of proof and anon mentions that the game died>"NOOOO THE GAME NEVER DIED THERE ARE STILL PRIVATE SERVERS"you are deliberately missing the point while ignoring several other points anons have brought up whether it be elin bias or the game's overall mismanagement
>>740279570TERA is hard-stuck on Unreal 3. This was a problem even back when BlueHole was still developing the game: Epic stopped supporting that engine in 2010. BlueHole could not just "remake" the game for Unreal 4. The assets didn't work on Unreal 4. Unreal 3 started getting Zero Day exploits, like RCEs, in the mid 2014s. This means anyone who starts a TERA server but doesn't do memory patching to fix the RCEs gets instantly hacked. This is so consistent that there's a discord group that just goes around doing it, except to Starscape. So people rightfully think the owner of that server is the one behind it.>>740279317>if tera was half as good as he said it was, the game would still be aliveBecause the game is stuck on Unreal 3 and the devs couldn't port it Why are you so fucking dumb? Kill yourself schizo
>>740279730>given multiple instances of proof proof of what? make sense you shithead nigger. no one wants to hear your ebonics and autistic one-sided conversations in your head.You said the game was dead but you can still play it. You also said it played like a completely different game, but it doesn't. Shut the fuck up already. You don't have any "point" just mushmouthed ebonics about shit that nobody said.
>making heart shaped photoshoots while beating the shit out of uppity forumfags found the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GfmwVHx6h8A
>>740279570All the private servers for TERA are dead because they use the later versions of the game which are dogshit, and everyone wants to play the old versions before the game had shit like brawler and all the other new classes that killed the game by destroying both pve and pvp balance (gunner was capable of 1 shotting bosses for example, so it's like ok why play any other class? just wasting your time)So a Canadian made TERA Classic which was the closest thing to the original feel of the OG game we've ever had in a private server, so all of us said fuck it and over 60,000 players registered. Then the owner of one of the other shitty private servers was furious so dedicated all his time and effort into hacking TERA Classic (TERA runs on UE3 which has 0 security) and passwords got leaked and so the server shut down and it scared all 60,000 players into ever trusting private servers again.But the owners of TERA noticed how many people signed up, so TERA 2 has since officially been announced in active development.

>>740278029Yeah, they have one button that does an entire rotation worth of damage.They were notorious for being the perfect hard counter to the practically unkillable priests in PvP because you'd just one shot them from full health, which is the only thing they couldn't heal.

>>740279870Does anyone, anyone at all, know what this retarded ape is trying to communicate in the thread about a video game? Something about necromancers? Is the little pee-brain confused and thinks this is the diablo thread? I wouldn't be shocked.
>>740280002The guy who said it was a wow clone was getting shit on and this dude spawned trying to bait people by calling TERA shit and "calling out" people "defending" it, just read the threadHe's trying very badly to shit it up, some people on this site just do that. He has no point and he'll keep outputting niggerbabble with no point for the vapid reason of getting replies
>>740279668Lineage 2 Dwarf is explicitly a loli. This is backed up by concept art for the game in the loading screens.You lost, sharteen.
>>740280012It's quite literally in the rules (furry lolicon and shotacon is allowed though because the owner is a furry but if you type this in the forums they will LITERALLY edit your reply so that it doesn't include calling "cub" loli/shota)
>>740279936>>>degredation of the site and board userbase, not saying /v/ was ever good but, schizos and autistic retards will start drama constantly and drag down any sort of guild. /vg/ mmo threads are exemplary in this and its 24/7 ERPer drama in every single one without failyou can't even fucking play with /vg/ or /vm/ anymore without people assuming you're an erper or making shit up about you, especially if you do something as innocent and common as partying with someone. people will go out of their way to shitpost and harass you because you played with their grown ass man crush, with some schizos going as far as larping as you in those very threads.i'd go as far as saying that you can't even play with /v/ as a whole anymore for similar reasons, it's the main reason why people avoid the mmoventure faggots and /v/focused private servers, the biggest offenders being maplestory and ragnarok online.
>>740279936The problem in general is all the wrong stuff gets to take over the board but all the right stuff gets moderated off into the board splits to languish and die. /vm/ has a constant, running MMO exploration campaign that's mostly fine but it's fucking dead and still filled with people who just join the threads to ruin them. So much so that the sharty wiki has an entry on trolling /vm/ threads by trying to claim everyone is a discord tranny in some secret clique that doesn't exist. No one wants to participate and when it gets cross posted, it usually gets deleted.
>>740280002>i am coping so hard that i cannot comprehend someone drawing parallels between private servers for a dead game and a necromancer reanimating a corpse
>>740280012Only 3 artists are keeping Elin alive, I salute them.
>>740280090thick dwarf loli is safehorny garbage, oppailoli (like in danmachi) is where the safehorny end for normalafgs and becomes equivalent to lolicon.
>>740280078to be fair, the sperg arguing with the guy calling tera wow-like is doing a horrible job at defending the game while constantly engaging in whataboutismsthe latest private server meltdown is the best example of this
>>740280236>to be fair, the sperg arguing with theHey shartybro don't come replying to me, thank you very much
why does this sperg keep bringing up sharty
>>740280216no seriously what the fuck are you trying to say you stupid fucking retard. you said the game was dead, but it's still playable. dead means dead. >>740280078ah got it. he's in shambles and samefagging about nonsense to save face.
>>740280297>dead now means this other definition that better suits my argument at this moment

>>740280416NoThe ELINS had balls.
>>740279152nah its a wow clone, all the mechanics are otherwise the same down to the interupt-stacking and "true action" is a lie.
>>740279045>make one race>get to dip your hands in a crazy fanatical demographic>might lose a tiny handful of people that are so insanely anti-furshit that they'd drop the entire game over the race existingIt'd be stupid to go all in on the furfaggotry and expect them alone to keep a high budget MMO afloat, but you're just leaving money on the table if you don't include a single furbait race at all.The more races there are, the more bait races you can get away with, so you want to be smart about their designs.WoW already had the big fuck off minotaurs and they had a historical excuse for pandaren, but the deluge of shitty allied races was an excuse for another one, and using it to make a tiny rat bastard race was a good call as far as marketability.They covered the big gaps in furfag appeal they were missing, having a smaller race that's thin instead of being a big bulky roid bull or fat fuck bear.Blizzard thought that shit through.
>>740274292can you imagine what I'd do to a couple of unattended elins

>>740280523That's actually kind of how Elins went. >We need a filler race, the 'let my girlfriend play healer' race. >Fuck it, little girl race it is. we'll use the Lyn models we took from NCSoft >wtf it's getting popular>wtf it's the biggest race in the game>wtf we are the Elin game now
>>740279475>free premium elite benefitsIt's saying the old benefits you got from paying when the game was running officially are just built in on their server.
>>740280525nothing degenerate and evil i hope?surely something with the best intentions in mind?
>>740280516I hope someone does invent a means of decoding whatever your schizobabble is supposed to mean

>>740274445>because wow already existed and people weren't going to quit a gameIt's more so the average WoW player even back then was nothing more but a sorry addict and as we all know with addicts their standards become non-existing. You could give them an MMO that does literally everything better than WoW and they still wouldnt quit because of their addiction. Its why the trash is in such a sorry state right now.I will never forgive these fuckers for letting Wildstar die

>>740280458>idk when the fuck 4chan got filled with so many mentally ill troon ERPers but it makes literally every mmo and most multiplayer games impossible to play unless you enjoy being roped into internet polycule dramathe ironic thing is that actual erpers were usually chill gameplayfags who did it on the side after running their weeklies, but they're a rare breed these days for obvious reasons. pretty much everyone tries to avoid the dramafags
>>740278767They purposely made one of the first npc you meet in the new tutorial helping kids. Just for this precise reason and comparison.
>>740274729>It's the only good action MMO ever made.It died because it was made for casual bitches like anon here who never touched better action mmos. TERA was slow animation locked trash masquerading as an action mmo.

>>740280807>pretty much everyone tries to avoid the dramafagsThe problem is the dramafags seek them out. They act like they want nothing to do with them but their lives would be meaningless if they weren't constantly stalking the few people who did play video games
>>740280804It died because the development studio was run by narcissistic idiots (i.e. most companies), and it targeted raiders, a demographic that makes up less than a fifth of players in WoW/FFXIV.

>>740281075I'm waiting for it to win legit, really the entire voting system needs to be redone. The 1st-2nd-3rd has resulted in too many games winning just from being the second-worst game on the wheel. Someone hyper-focuses on some shitheap while shitheap jr slowly accumulates 'its not the worst thing ever' votes. case in point: puzzle pirates. is it the worst game? no, but is it something anyone wants to spend a week or even a few days doing? not really
>>740281095no, that tera was barely-obfuscated tabtarget sloptake off the rose-tinted goggles and go play on one of the pservers for like an hour, the cracks show incredibly fastit only impressed you 15 years ago because you had nothing to compare it to
all these niggas desperate for classic Tera 2.0anons allow me to introduce you...RaiderZ>identical quest to dungeons format>true action combat (tm)>sword class some combination of zerker and slayer>fun dungeon mechanics and bossesgo fucking play RaiderZ. there's a pserver, global I think, based on the classic version up to lvl ~40. the /vm/ project was supposed to play it but they rigged the vote (again).
>>740281121Trust us, most players aren't spending their time whining about muh WoW combat and trying to recruit people for discord/raid cliques. That's just sad faggots on /v/.
>>740281075>>740281190i played raiderz back when i gave the mmoventure fags a shot and that game was pretty clunky desu, both from a gear progression standpoint and from a general combat standpointit also goes without saying that you'll be dealing with /vg/ and /vm/ bullshit if you play with the cliqued retards over there, you'll have people going out of their way to gossip about shit while people only ever party with the same dudes in statics
>>740281178ok but you're wronghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNVwzUI6XhMthis isn't tab target nor is it slow, this is one of the easier bosses. >it only impressed you 15 years ago because you had nothing to compare it toIt wasn't even the first action combat MMO.
>>740281047Yeah, everything about it is cute. The dev is also probably a shotafag since 90% of the characters are probably boys, and many of the AI generate images use in game menus are boys. The game does not let you select a gender considering the body type is the same.
>>740281190right and >>740281160I'll play it when it wins legit, it could take a while but it will happen.
>>740277168Me two.

>>740281335huh so they are as stupid as they sound.
>>740281367It's making /v/ uncomfortable right now. /v/ has become more normalfag than Reddit. Half of the thread is bitching about Elins and lolis.

>>740281253>i played raiderz back when i gave the mmoventure fags a shot and that game was pretty clunky desu,it's pretty clunky yeah, but not too dissimilar to how zerks were disadvantaged to every other class on Tera launch. it might've been the server latency since I believe it was hosted in Brazil.>>740281316they've already played it and I think it's best chance is next year (implying the project doesn't implode from drama, or the voted gets rigged fucking again). honestly I'd just get a handful of /v/ros and play it blind. had I blast doing that
>>740281267>fancy animations make it not tabtargetjust stop man, you're embarassing yourself here
Comparing wow to a game that has movement abilities when the best you get in wow is ground-targetted blinks is legitimately insane to me as a wow playerTODAY the gameplay is still "stand in one spot DPSing until you need to get out of the fire"
>>740281473I quit replying because I already posted that EXACT VIDEO once and they just ignored it. >>740277251You should too
>>740280919TERA's combat was shit, and anyone shilling it has rose tinted glasses when better action MMOs by Nexon came out like Dragon Nest and Vindictus.Then there was C9 and the ever looming threat of Blade and Soul.TERA was animation rooted, tab target, unbalanced trash, with the worst hit boxes known to man.
>>740281501>think its just animations>you can see the hitboxes for the individual strikes land on the targetright, I accept your concession.>>740281526smart, i'll just do the same.>>740281502he's obviously pretending to be a retard to autosage the thread.
Like how do these look anything alikehttps://youtu.be/QPrDMyEntDw?t=196>>740281267https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNVwzUI6XhM
Are there really no worthy successor game with this body type aside from hit?
>>740281413Oh yes, because this short woman with massive thighs definitely looks like an elementary schooler. These people are nuts
>>740281586Blade and Soul is even MORE tab target combat than TERA ever was.Holy fuck at least watch videos of the games you're talking about, knuckle dragger.
>>740281371>doesn't know about JUICE
>>740281190>RaiderZGod I forgot about that game... Too bad it didn't take off.
