    skimmed but to translate u spend hrs grinding doing dailies for fake gold in order to buy costumes for Elins......

    Nope, I even use real life money for buying costumes. The same real life money I use for going into a theater to see a fake movie, buying a fake video game to play in a fake world. Money I even spend for a fake internet access to fake a communication with fake people I've never seen before or will ever see in my life (it's called telephon conference with project partners). Fortunately, it's only fake money on a fake bank account, consisting of numbers only. It's been some time since I had real money in my hands.

    Just a small question: How old are you? Somwhere in the 70s or 80s? Here's one shocking truth: people even have a fake currency, called Bitcoins. The majority even trades fake stocks online, only shoving numbers around. There are even companies based on fakes only, I think it was called Fakebook *no pun intended* or even Google which sells nothing but fake informations. Some fakish world we're living in. You better move on a mountain and become hermit. Because this conversation is also fake only. I'm a robot called Cortana, not a real person.

    Even "real cash" in simple terms is also fake.

    Believe it or not free will is also an illusion, and in the end we all die and forget our entire existence. Everything we do and feel is our mind tricking us into thinking something important is happening when everything amounts to the same nothingness and pointlessnes we see everywhere else in the universe we look. Our concept of "meaning" is just a product of natural selection and evolution, our will to survive and pass on our genetics and knowledge to the next generation is just convenient to the survival of our species. Only the humans with instincts that result in survival and mating live to pass on their genes to the next generation, thus we have fear of death and love, and only species who's offspring can survive in the future continue which is why humans also have instinct to love our children and raise them. Everything we do is based on what evolution and natural selection has programmed into us.

    Me typing this to you now is equivalent to a computer becoming self aware and computing to you that you are in reality an Elin attached to a virtual reality pod which you have no idea you are in and this is all a false reality.

    But really, nothing matters, were just apes.

    Let's not get philosophical here...xP too deep for morning thought.

    All in all, I'm paying the $15.00 USD "sub" price for elite. I don't max my vanguard's on all my level 65s, I don't have 50 items in the brokerage per character.

    Elite has made my QoL much nicer in game between the elite charms and potions, travel journal, and that other teleport thing. Also makes running the one dungeon (ssnm ATM) I'm trying to master easier with more entries + reset.

    Is it worth? I play Tera like a second job so yes. Just my 2¢ xD
  • If we want to dive that deep, I understand. I felt that way since I really realized the concept humanity has built around them to make it normal. Nothing you can do about that though! I think now I will wait for the next subscription deal and order that instead of buying them individually. For now, I need to get my last form of TERA and add it to my account - The Collector's Edition.

    I don't understand why someone who plays this game would complain about people who spend money on this game. The only reason you can play it for free is because some people spend money for the extra [filtered], it's almost like they're jealous of the other players in their adorable $10 swimsuits.

    Nah but I spend money on this game I figure if I spend hours on something why not pay for it, I pay for pointless [filtered] like candy bars and [filtered] when I go out there's no difference.

    all currency is fake. Look up how currency is backed now in days.

    I like the current elite. When my scroll runs out, i'll be subbing to keep it for next patch rather than paying 70k every month. Its value will definitely go down if they don't replace the new consumables with something more convenient on the elite bar, but I still kept up with elite even before that due to the x2 vanguards, double dungeon runs, and ease of traveling.
