    @thekor What Ghost said, plus, BHS can do whatever they want. Have you done the story quests? If you have, then you know that if BHS thought Argons would fill their pockets they would come up with some bull [filtered] excuse to include them.

    Now there's a blast from the past. Reminds me just how long I've been at this thing called TERA, lol.

    People will throw some wishful thinking into the forums, sometimes for fun. Sometimes just to sigh at the possibilities. EME and BHS are always analyzing what people need and want from the game, and those are the things that they try to eventually focus on, even if they get sometimes slow and some other things don't even get fixed. Of course I assume their priorities go about fixing bugs, balancing stuff, AND looking for ways to monetize (because it's a business after all), so these threads really do no damage and instead actually show outside people reading the forums that people in here are not always forced to talk about broken things, and that's good, free PR for the game.

    So in the end, while you are right in the part about these ideas most likely not even reaching first base, we cannot go from thread to thread telling people to stop posting what they want and instead post what we want. because as far as I know, we are not in a dictatorial regime. :3

    People hardly even play the races that are in the game now. Except for Elins and race-locked classes. Adding another option won't add diversity unless it's just a cuter Elin.

    There's that cat people race in the storyline for Selearon's Sky Garden. I wanted to play them soooo bad, it's like the popori finally gave up on the fruitless "let's be cute" act.. The race is like Prion or something like that.

    I would KILL (not actually) for Draenei to be in Tera. But, since that can't happen, I'd settle for something very, very close to.

    The argon war is effectively over so why not a cybernetic race?

    I'd still vouch for argon themed outfits and weapon skins. Story spoilers ahead.
    If I understood the lore right, defeating Shandra Manaya, while it disabled a ton of argons, still left another bunch alive, as Kaia mentioned. They were leaderless, so in chaos, meaning they were easy pickings when the winning side (Valkyon) started the rounding up process. This explains why not all argons died with Shandra. For example, the argon horse hybrid mount is still alive. Also, we could say argon technology is being repurposed and further studied. So argon themed outfits could be not only lore friendly but could be the culmination of studies that determined that argon tech can be safely used as many useful things, including clothing.

    Well, it's not as if we (the characters) aren't already using hacked Argon tech/creatures. Terminus and Arcannons say hello. With that in mind, I can't honestly say Fel's idea of cyborgs wouldn't be at least ... doable.
    (Although, with BHS at the helm, I'd not be at all surprised to see "cutesy" 'borgs.)
  • FelhammerFelhammer ✭✭✭
    No absolutely not with the cute stuff. Tera needs to take a walk down the dark side. Sure Zolyn and Paesyn getting butchered was dark hell it was funny and pitiful. But what Tera needs is to move away from the cute and cotton wool style. I remember touring through Argonea and Granarkus simply because it's spooky and spectacular.

    If we're getting a cybernetic race it can't be cute. That's what your stupid elins and Poporis are for.

    Argons were creepy looking in some places. Now that was something good to look at.

    I could see them making a succubus race. Maybe the special thing to lure people in would be being able to choose their hips and bust size right off the bat, so they could have whatever body type they liked. People would throw money at costumes for that, and it's something I could actually see them making, since female only. >_>

    castanic are succubus :3
  • XaeraXaera ✭✭✭
    Ehhh, not voluptuous enough, and no tails.

    Some Castanic cloth outfits add a tail. /shrugs
    Wings are doable.

    Here's another "non cute" race idea: Vampir nobles, anyone?

    Vampir Nobles remind me of Johnny Depp. Could be a cool Halloween transformation to have. Like a potion to become a mob to fool around in towns. I mean, we could use more silly things to boost social aspects of the game. yes?
