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.
>>
>>740274292
Looks like gachaslop. There is a limited market of virgin neckbeards suffering extreme delusions. Have you tried honkers: stars railed? Perhaps Zoomer Zone Zero?

But that's not TERA.

Blue 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.
>>
>>740274479
yes it is

>>740274446
fucking 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.
>>
>>740274292
Wasn't it money problems with the company or something?
>>
>>740274687
NTA 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.
>>
>>740274760
Bluehole (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.

you'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

It 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.

Prefacing 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.

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.
>>
>>740274292
Korean 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.

TERA 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.

EME went under because they went all-in on a game that WAS a massive failure, stealing all the funds TERA players were paying.

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.

TERA 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.

Mismanaged 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.

>>740274292
Company and developer mismanagement. Most common reason games that make more than 1 million dollars end up dying.
>>
>>740275772
Don'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.

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.
>>
>>740274292
It 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.
>>
>>740275702
Genshin 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.
>>740275631
Tera 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.

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-1844755092

At 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

You 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.

>>740276249

>>740274292
It'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.

For 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.

>Typical MMO story of game getting worse and worse with each patch
A 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

Should'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.

TERA 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

All 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.

you 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.

The 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.

It'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.

It'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.

I honestly didn't know WHY they did it. Though the theory that EME HATED that they got the anime loli game tracks if you ever had to talk to EME staff on their forums. They felt the game was a chore to maintain and treated the players with disdain. They brought over costumes because nothing else was making money after it went F2P.

Lineage 2 practically spawned the coombait genre. Way back when Lineage 2 had its beta test in South Korea, people found unused textures for undies and modded them in. This caused quite a ruckus, which resulted in the game being restricted to age 15 and up, so the devs said fuck it and made all the armor sexy for the release. They even put an underwear slot on the character sheet and were talking about having equippable underwear, though they backpedaled on that
Also even though those official underwear textures have never been visible ingame without mods, they kept them in the files and made new ones for the new races. The first of which was the dwarves.

And NCSoft were based for it. This is what kept the genre alive. They NEEDED people who wanted to perv on the races because otherwise you're staring at some man's ass all day in a grindan' simulator.

Lineage 2 was genius for recognizing that because it's a 3D game, players were wanting to examine their characters and others in 3D like they were already doing in single player games.

I played first descendant in beta where you could unlock all the outfits and can say with certainty that anyone who played TERA had zero interest in playing it for porn.

I'm all for adding slutwear to games, but the "man's ass" argument was always a huge fucking cope, anyone actually playing their video games isn't going to be looking at their character's ass.
The only game I can think of where that would be a legitimate thing is FFXI due to its fucked up camera angles and that game being on the slower-side with more of a strategy focus, but even then you'd be watching the combat log and battle effects.

How has no other mmo ever come close? The colour, the feel, the moment to moment gameplay. It was fucking one of a kind and I worry we will never get anything like it again.
BDO is probably the closest an mmo has had me as engaged with the combat but the autistic Korean obsession with pvp and obscene grinding is gay.

You're going to be focusing on enemies and their attack tells, mechanics, and your resources (hp/mp/cooldowns/class mechanics), the tera camera wasn't up against your ass.
At most you might perv on your character while idling. Compare that to something like pic related, where your ass is genuinely center-screen because of how the camera focuses on your current target, but even then, you should be focused on buff timers/resources/skillchains in that game instead of looking there.

MMOs are dead in general and nobody wants to play with anyone anymore.
The cracks were showing even during TERA's time. The instance finders, the cross-instance raids so nobody got to befriend one another afterwards, eventually they banned inter-regional chat that wasn't guild or party.

My favorite though, the part that I think was the part I really saw the end times, was when they got rid of player markets because of RMT and had the auction house the only way to trade in general. That was the end of MMOs being this comfy 'find someone and adventure' atmosphere.

Nowhere in my post did I say that everyone playing a female is self-inserting.
The main thing I said is that the people who argue about "muh ass" are often those kinds of faggots. That ass argument has become much more common as mmos got further infested with their ilk. If your game has anything with more depth than a literal autobattler, your eyes aren't going to be locked onto the ass.

To this day, I find it odd there was no private instance or housing in TERA.

wowCRAP today has sharting (sharding) where people can be in different "shards" of the same zone so you might not even see them in the world, not to mention that the entire game is build around running the same dungeon over and over in mythic+ keys

No it doesn't, even your screenshot has a man's ass front and center in the middle of the screen. The most obvious trait right in the center of your character in the TERA screenshot is the castanic's ass

>>740282875
>but for games that are obvious goonerbait
This word didn't exist over 5 years ago. This is a zoomer idea that because you can dress up in slutwear, you should feel ashamed about doing it on your character on your screen for your video game that you're playing for yourself.

If you told someone, anyone, in any MMO, anywhere, that they should feel SHAME for dressing their barbie doll up like a barbie doll, they'd rightfully call you a faggot. Then they would say "You don't pay my sub".

BTW good luck finding the castanic who isn't dressed like a hooker, man or women alike. That was one of the reasons you would play them over a high Elf.

I did, my point is: your ass is the centerpoint of your character which is going to be jump around the screen, slashing, moving around, because it's an action MMO and the point is for you to focus on your character so you don't get lost. It's a purposeful design decision

But let's say that it's not in that game, why should I need a 'reason' to stare at my characters ass that's on screen? The idea that I need a 'reason' to do anything with my game is some autistic shit.

Gooner and goonerbait is a post-covid term. Nobody cared how you got your rocks off before the puritan police decided that it was their job to judge 'what' you found sexy. This is true for MMOs and porn alike.

No the fuck it isn't, the center of the screen is on the enemies. Even when you're actually in combat, your ass isn't going to be centered and you're going to be focused on the fight whether it's what your enemy is directly doing or raid mechanics.
The point is that the ass cope is a cope.

I think this conversation would be less self-defeating for you if you just admitted you wanted to stare at a man's ass.

Idk how your takeaway from that is "Anon wants to look at man ass" but you do you faggot. I'm sure plenty of anons thought you were straight and normal for helping them out in Velika.
You can play a girl for any reasons you want, whether it's dressing them up or RPing a different character (aka not being a mentally ill self-inserter), but don't pretend that it's entirely because your eyes would be drawn to your character's ass. FFS you even admitted that you'd be staring at the man's ass if you played as a man, that's why the ass justification is a cope.

There was some good PvE and good PvP but both suffered from poor game design at different points. I don't think the devs knew what to do with the game at all. Still the most memorable gameplay of any MMO and the world was cool as fuck even if they clearly ran out of budget like the story was totally unfinished kek. Tera was fun to revisit once a year but thanks to some moronic game design it had no legs and got boring fast. It's a shame.
>>
I remember finding the combat good but everything else rather average or below. So I stopped playing it and played whatever MH game was out at the time. Game also highlighted to me why most of the genre at the time didn't attempt combat like this cause I do remember it wasn't too responsive and a lil lag and it would feel really bad. Then add on top all the usual issues with KMMOs (as someone who enjoys kmmos).

why do I need to care what other people think? is there a policeman who will kick my door down if I play as a big boobed dark elf? you're just projecting and then acting offended that I'm not projecting alongside you. the genuine definition of mental illness

i think this is an important distinction as i would not judge someone for gooning out to stellar blade the same way i would a gang of elins having an erp session. it's one thing to goon out by yourself, but in an mmo you're gooning out in public.

Genuinely, no one cared. Nor should anyone care if they did care. You're proving yourself an NPC retard so I'll explain it: The people who found it disgusting felt it was beneath them to care what those people played as in the video game, and the people doing it felt it was beneath them to care what those people thought of them in the video game.

Literally the only place the mentality of "I HAVE to care about this, I have to devote every second shaming them" came up post-covid. Thanks to some pretty clever brainwashing to turn a chunk of the population into sex-hating chuds.
