  • (Quote) Honestly, I would contend that this community has never once "accepted things as they are" and has been relentlessly critical from the moment EME started accepting feedback about this game. Since well before the original launch, …
  • (Quote) We were questioning the wisdom of providing this kind of sensitive information (that Player Council didn't even have) to an outside group that didn't have an NDA. As a result, both this outside group and Player Council had to sign an NDA, …
  • (Quote) That's literally what I try to do all the time. This is why I push back on the BS/hyperbolic arguments people make and try to make sure I understand the usable/valid part of the feedback, so I can forward it clearly. (Of course I have my o…
  • (Quote) That being said, I think people get easily lost on this point, and assume you're saying "stop pointing out what EME is doing wrong." But really, the point is just to keep a constructive tone. And that means, even if people are m…
  • (Quote) To be clear, I just chose those issues because they're basically the "big rocks" that would make the most difference on a wide scale. It wasn't trying to dismiss or sidestep the smaller things that EME could do. For example, I'v…
  • The traffic drop in the summer is a consistent pattern in this game (which you can see reflected on Steamcharts in 2017, also cited above). XIGNCODE was basically a tempest in a teapot; a lot of people play or have played other Korean MMOs that use…
  • (Quote) I've no interest in "suckling" -- I want the facts. I've watched multiple streams where they've talked about merges, yes, but never one where they claimed there would never be another merge. We've also had monthly or nearly twic…
  • (Quote) Basically, all they did is make it so that you don't start over with new gear when the new cycle comes around (since it builds directly off of what you already did), but in practice the time commitment is no different (net effect is actuall…
  • Should be made available in-game the way EME had originally wanted to put the dragons in game, but was forbidden from doing so. Alas... what we'll get is probably going to be a variation of what we got for the last dragons, which isn't that great. …
  • (Quote) They never ever said this. The most they've ever said is "we have no plans to merge servers at this time." "At this time" being the operating part of the sentence. Kamizuma also never claimed that they would never mer…
  • (Quote) FWIW, anyone who has TERA PC installed now can run the tests themselves to confirm that those files and registry entries aren't there. To make double-sure, I checked myself today. If you installed other games with XIGNCODE you may or may …
  • (Quote) FWIW, besides being off-topic, none of this information applies to the way it's implemented in TERA; it doesn't install a system driver, doesn't put these keys in the registry, isn't required to run as root, and doesn't install anything in …
  • (Quote) Okay, then I would follow up with EME support and send them a screenshot of the fact it shows as installed on Steam, and that you talked to Steam support and they directed them to talk to EME. In this sort of case it isn't always clear whe…
  • (Quote) Is the DLC showing up as purchased/installed in Steam itself?
  • (Quote) The only brief moments where this was maybe true was right at each launch (original, F2P, and Steam) for about a one month period or so. This game has always had a retention problem, and nothing's really changed that too much over the years…
