No. They did play this game but they can create any item with a single command or tools. That's why.
They actually do focus on NA (since mobas is actually popular in NA), but they still make changes for other regions. Such as the decision to remove Dominion, it was slow even for NA, but other regions it was non-existent. They also had some restrictions for what time you could queue up for what in regions where the game wasn't as big, to lower queue times there as well. Then there's all the art changes made to live up to the Chinese standards, since a lot of things went against their rules, and a few minor removals to meet the standards of other countries as well. Blizzard also has some changes to their games from time to time for other markets as well, like for China. Blue Hole on the other hand is focusing strictly on one region with not even many reasonable QoL changes that Blizzard/Riot would be doing for the rest.
Another thing to take into account LoL can be played on netbooks and still have stable 30+ fps, netbooks are basically like playing on slightly better phones. The same was true for some Blizzard games. Compare that to Tera where even with an enthusiast level desktop and you'll hardly stay over 30fps in combat and even out of combat it will hardly be 100, where as in these other games you'll get 200~500+ fps even when a lot is happening.
I mean, when EME has no power over massive changes, when NA a large region and important, why the community can't have communication with developers of BHS? They don't even have to come to NA, easily opens forums from Korea and see and check suggestions discussions? I think that would be great.
How about a pressure from our EME team, @Spacecats or @Noesis on them to show up here and discuss things? If BHS gets his head outta Korea the game can improve a lot faster and better I believe.
You can already talk to them if you know any Korean, considering some probably don't know any English, and given some that do, you still wouldn't be able to really communicate with them as it's a bit of a different English. People get harassed on forums for their sub par English, and some Korean developers have their typed English fairly similar to it, always felt like I was reading google translate when ever I saw many things typed by Korean developers in English.
I'm just quoting this for later reference, because it's certainly heading towards this sad direction.
It is especially frustrating for a healer to go thru the work of running HH and having to go thru 2 layers of RNG to get what I consider the best healer loot from HH: Energetic IV etchings. Personally, that is the ONLY reason I'm running HH, and I am happy to pass on literally everything else.
But no. No one can pass on Etching boxes for me, even if they wanted to.
Because you are a healer and you wanting even 1 extra gold from a Dungeons will transforme you into a greedy person and one that must be punished for wanting something from the loot.
Or so is what many ppl here on the forums says about healers and tanks.
