    being honest and discouraging? Don't waste your time with Tera? If it is a waste of time why bother with its forums? Cause being in a forum of a dead game is way more stupid than being in a dead game.

    I have been mostly solo, barely run with anyone, I don't think anyone from my country play on NA server, that is not discouraging, if you like something and enjoy it, you just simply do it.

    See, this is what I mean. You are playing a multiplayer game "mostly solo," and you "barely run with anyone." Your words, not mine. Yet here you are telling someone that the game's fine. Meanwhile, people who actually play the game for its multiplayer aspect are saying the opposite, that the game isn't doing fine at all, and you're going to insult them for talking about their experiences? In fact, you're the second person in this thread to say the game's doing fine only to admit that you don't actually play it with anyone else.

    This is the funniest [filtered] I've read in a while. Like half the people in this thread who say the game's doing fine admit that they don't even play it. And to hear you of all people, talking about OTHERS damaging the community when you're the first on the scene to criticize enjoyable events for being "too rewarding" whenever you can't participate in them because they involve dungeons that you don't run, until the staff capitulate and turn it into something not even worth logging in for. Icing on the cake. People like you are the cancer here.

    ROFL, Let me get this straight.

    So I am a solo player and you claim you are a team player, aspect of multiplayer matters to you, but I am the one encouraging new players, returning players to get to the game and you and your folks say don't come back to the game and you claim multiplaying is important to you, if you and your folks are not trolls, so what are you?

    If you were playing, if Multiplaying and population would have mattered to you, you would invite them to your guild, you would encourage them to join the game. But no, I don't think you and other folks in this thread even playing the game, if you were playing you would have encouraged people to join the game not just exaggerated that Tera is doing very bad and is dying.

    I criticize the game because I play it and I love it, I gave thousands of mats, tens of inners, gave many accessories away during August event to encourage people, but you people bash Tera and claim you play it and care for it when you are trying to damage it every single day on forums.

    So, in the end, I am not the MEME, you and your folks are, if you claim Tera is bad, why are you here? In forums and in game? You like those Tab-target MMOs get in there and play them, if you claim other game similar to Tera is doing better, get there and don't waste your time with Tera, If you think Tera is doing really bad and not worth getting there go play Black Desert and pay to get an account and also pay to do GVG or pay for almost anything that matters. meanwhile me and other white knights get everything we want w/o even paying real money, name a single MMO with Tera's quality to be like this.

    How is that you say it is waste of time for others but you visit forums on daily basis and also play the game everyday? I don't think that is mentally OK, Calling my post funny by you people is the best compliment I got in forums to date.

    dude i bet you don't even play the game xd you clearly have no idea what you're talking about
    i bet you're one of those people who que KC and think the game is alive because people do low-tier dungeons xd
    anyway i see you complaining all the time about events, players literally don't play because of you ruining the events for us
    get a grip man xd

    I was the 1st that started raids for event on CH on 1st part of event, they were many, I play each day for 1-3 hours, you and your folks can't troll right, you claim no population, then you say many players que KC and do low tier dungeons, I thought you meant there are no people in this game? You need to learn how to troll, you can't even do that.

    pff you only play 1-3 hours haha? i play 9 hours a day ;)

    and it is hard to trust that, if you have normal life i dont see how you can play 9h by day, except if you are afk in velika to cute dance with your cute elin

    Game has been dead since it was in Beta. And will keep being dead for quite a long time by the looks of it. /s

    But seriously maybe we need to merge everything into two servers.

    There are people playing. Not a ton, but enough for those who need a fix of bunny little girls to get it.

    There's VEEEERRRY very little development going on:
    1) The occasional one room "dungeon" with an hp piñata and some one-shot kill mechanics.
    2) The occasional new class which is likely to be Elin only so you can replay the same 5-6 year old content that's been there since launch.
    3) Cash shop items that are re-colors of previous cash shop items.

    So technically, it's not dead dead. It's more into solid hospice/maintenance mode.

    Games like Tera always see an overall downward trend over time. They have their peak at release when the game has a lot of attention then go downward with maybe another temporary spike but overall going down as time progresses. Tera isn't able to reliably draw in the attention of new players, and then keep them playing. It has relied mostly on bringing back former players and trying to entice them to keep playing. Which in turn makes the game even less friendly to anyone new.

    Excluding combat, what reason is there to choose Tera over the other bigger games when it comes to pve? Tera has extremely limited pve content. One end-game raid, one end-game instance designed for a minority. Content accessed by the majority still limited to a couple instances. Open world sees no use pve wise unless EME has an event. New players are introduced to a large empty world and leave because they don't see anyone. A lot of Tera's pve content isn't really new either, a lot of it is recycled.

    Pvp wise, again excluding combat, why choose Tera for pvp? The combat is a double edged sword for both pvp and pve. You don't even need that high of a ping to run into issues with it, and fps causes issues that are worse than high ping which is easy to come accross given the game isn't optimized. Other games I can be on Ultra/Max and not drop below 30 or 60 fps with no stuttering/freezing (depending on game) even with 100+ people on my screen using abilities. Pvp sees little to no support for actual pvp. A lot of the vocal pvpers demand rewards above all else, which is all pvp sees adjustments for, this pushes competitive pvpers away from the game so they stick to their mobas or shooters or a subpar rpg just because their pvp is better in quality.

    For other portions of the game, it suffers the same issues as pve. Recycling. Look closely at a lot of cosmetics, even ignoring the obvious recolors, some cosmetics are actually recycled older cosmetics just to some they won't notice. Class releases are now going to be recycled, opening gender up for Gunner and now Brawler. The player base that complained will surely be happy that "new" stuff is coming, but to outsiders or those that didn't care will see these patches as pointless filler content and would have no reason to return. Client support, all they've done is essentially implement what client mods do, turning off parts of the UI, etc. Again, end result is nothing original or actual work put into improving the game.

    Tera's been around for a few years and other than a couple systems changing a bit it is essentially the same as it was before. A lot of people return each big patch, but they also leave pretty quickly because in the end there wasn't really anything new added. Tera is living solely off the combat because the is no other MMORPG with its combat. They're all largely tab-target or a hybrid system, but most consumers are not going to dedicate themselves to a game for just combat.

    Or they're being honest about the state of the game. I think the game's enjoyable, but I'm gonna be honest and say it's because I have a few friends to play it with. Without them, I'd quit immediately. I don't have a monetary stake in this game. Why on earth would I lie to someone about its current condition?

    Being honest is not to try to convince others that your point of view is the only valid.

    If we compare Tera to launch year then is obvious it has less active players, right now the game have some dedicated players and a lot of casuals. Many of those casuals quit playing and then come back in one or two months to play almost the same amount of time they were not playing the game.

    But I concur that there are times when you will have it hard to get that MMO experience that many are looking for. This game is healthy at hours when most of NA player base can play meanwhile at other ours foreigners will feel the game is dead.

    Is a matter of opinion about that issue because even the most played game right now have times where you will have it hard to find parties or even you will have to wait hours in q. That is not something that only Tera suffers.

    also, it doesn't help that the market is flooded with mmo's at the moment. I feel like tera can go either way right now, it can go dead or get more alive. it all depends on bhs, and what the consoles have to offer as far as it being optimized for them, and also if they and we can play on the same servers or not.

    Free is excessively common; erping exists everywhere on the internet; under aged looking female (and animal ears/tails) isn't exclusive to Tera or originated on Tera.
