Exactly.
It doesn't matter if NA 42% where male characters and 48% female, what they look is what's the most played and which gender and race made more profit.
Males could be played 70% but if those players don't spend money then sorry, I go for those who want to open their wallets and it happens that those where elin character players.
Some ppl are delusional thinking that the gender locked classes were the ones to drive ppl to play females but is the other way, ppl actually prefer to play with females and spend money in them, so they drived BHS to made famale classes in respond to their demands.
True story.
I wouldn't celebrate that as a success, when TERA had much more potential than the state it is in now. Genderlocking is one of the many decisions that led this game to become just another bland fish in the sea.
make males have faster animation than their counterparts and see how fast ppl will jump ships...
Yeah... I saw a High Elf lancer at Vault of Kaprima and he was playing really good.
I do know VoK is an easy dungeon but his combos, transitios from block to atack and casting abilities where.. wow.
only if they are popo else, i dont touch ugly character, even if they are super lancer
Until you see a 200ms elin sorc cast meteor at a faster pace than a 50ms non elin one. But yes minmaxers are very few and far between.
They shoudl rather make a male costume. Fixed price (no RNG) and works exactly like our hundred other costumes we have. Except that it depicts a male body. Throw in the male appearance for the head and we're good; everyone could put that over the brawler, reaper, ninja, gunner. However, BHS/EME must have thought of this before. I guess it's not possible.
Honestly I'm half-expecting them to add Elin as an option for Brawler/Gunner/Pole Dancer at some point, assuming Elin costume sales are still good and others are down.
Elin saved Tera !
So they say. Destroyed a good portion of it too...
Games like these are only as good as their community is active. You shouldn't be happy that so many people are openly leaving, because that makes it worse for everyone. If you actually enjoy this game and care about it, then seeing people quit like this should make you worried, not happy. When I stopped playing this game seriously, a good friend of mine left with me. Together we were basically the only people organizing stuff early in the morning in our guild, so when we left things got super dead at that hour, which made less people logged in, and now that's just a time when not a lot of people play, when before it used to be a time when we ran RMHM or did learning runs of it. Granted, that's a situation limited to a single guild so the scope is fairly small, but this kind of thing happens everywhere and when it happens enough then you start seeing more people leaving, which prompts even more people to leave. Whenever someone who's active on these forums says they've had enough and they're quitting, I get worried because anyone who bothers coming here and posting here semi-regularly obviously cares about this game and contributes to its community in some way or another, so that's a huge net loss for everyone when they leave.
