From the Manufacturer

Tera is a subscription-based* fantasy MMO (Massively Multiplayer Online) game for play on the PC that blends traditional MMO RPG elements with Action combat like no game before it. In the persistent game world of Tera, players can work alone or form groups and join guilds, but regardless of the approach, players must fully control their characters using the game's dynamic battle system in order to succeed. Additional features include: a customizable user interface, seven races with access to eight character classes, engaging PvP combat, and a three-continent wide game play area to explore.

MMO Gameplay Featuring True Action Combat

Tera is the first MMORPG featuring true action combat, providing all of the depth of an MMO with the intensity and gratification of an Action game. Players fully control their characters using the game's dynamic battle system. Player actions can change the balance of power in a world threatened by dark powers as seven allied races try to work together to protect their lands from marauding monsters, underworld dwellers, and evil scheming gods.

A redefinition of the MMO that requires skills in combat instead of simply leveling characters and adding adding armor.

Epic battles that require quick movement and character reflexes.

Set in a breathtaking world conjured by two dreaming primal gods, your explorations will take you over rugged mountains, across searing deserts, and through hazardous jungles. Take your place as a soldier for the Valkyon Federation and fight alongside other races to forge a new future while healing the mistakes of the past. There's no time for factions in Tera - all seven races and eight classes must cooperate to wrench destiny from the gods themselves. Arm yourself, gather your allies, and take control of your fate. Fighting prowess, guild rankings, and social dynamics come together as you find yourself vying for political control of the world itself in Tera's unique endgame.

5.0 out of 5 stars Suprisingly good May 5, 2012

I've downloaded the open beta more as a joke than anything else, but I ended up buying the game.

In short, it has very fun combat that's more akin to Amalur and Tabula Rasa than to tab-target games like WoW, the world is very large and without loading screens (much like WoW, which is good), it has a nice story to it and everything just looks beautiful. Most bells and whistles you would expect from a modern MMO are in there - interesting crafting + enchanting, dungeon finder, guilds (but now with a twist, guilds can run for server wide elections and rule a region of the game), a "rift" system.. Only thing missing that's announced for this summer are the PvP battlegrounds.

Give it a try, it will hardly leave you indifferent.

5.0 out of 5 stars TERA is a blast. May 7, 2012

By Joseph Flannery

I am loving this game for a few reasons, all listed below.

Just started playing 3 days ago and in that time have a 30 Slayer, 9 Priest, and 8 Warrior (I was sick all weekend on meds, what else can I say?).

I started with the Slayer just because I felt that is the class I would do the best with just to start the game. Its a heavy hitting, highly mobile, but only medium armored melee DPS class. Do not try and tank, or even get in the line of fire with a Slayer. You will take big damage. You have an evade on a small cooldown that lets you get out of the way of harm easily enough though so that is OK. Its a burst DPS class, where you charge your mp to use your advanced abilites. Build plenty so you can chain them together for a nice chunk of damage. Rinse, repeat, and go to town. This does change up when in an instance as you do have to focus more on staying out of the danger zone of being hit. I stayed in the middle of a group of enemies just a little to long yesterday after using my abilities and died pretty quick. A fun, fluid, big DPS class to play IMO.

The priest. I was a little hesitant about starting a priest up just because of how combat might work. Turns out it is quite fun, you get plenty of offensive skills, and while killing things takes a little longer then the Slayer, is very very viable for solo questing. BAMs might be tough to solo, but Ill talk about those later. I havent gone and healed any groups or other people with it yet, so I cannot comment there. Again combat here is very fluid and fun.

The Warrior. I wish I had started with warrior instead of Slayer. Just a blast to play as. Plenty of big skills. Damage skills that when in use reduce damage you take and an evade/aoe combo make this class a joy to solo with.

Cant comment on priest and warrior more then that as I just dont have the play time on them to be able to do so.

Found a guild quick enough. Some good people. Seems like lots of people have come from Final Fantasy 11 to play.'

BAMs are hard, cruel, long fights. Lots of fun, but require immense concentration and effort, but EXP payout and loot drops are massively increased as well.

Instances. Only played two as Slayer so far, but tons and tons of fun. The fights are very dynamic. You cant just sit and do your abilites then move to x, do abilites, move to y, and repeat. So nice to have a system that player skill matters more then where you stand.

Graphics - Damn this game is good looking. Environments are gorgeous. 5/5
Story - I havent been paying that much attention to the story as Ive been having fun with the combat. Seems solid but not great. 3/5 (so far).
Sound - Other then mounts are a little too vocal for me, beautiful. 4/5
Combat - Every class is unique and fun (so far). 5/5

Loving this game. Fully recommend it to anyone looking for a unique playing experience that is tired of same ole same ole MMOs. I loved FFXI, love SWTOR as well. Never been a big WoW fan. Loved the zone events in GW2Beta/RIFT (not so much the combat, but just being like, "Hey, whats going on over there?" and proceeding to plow over an event with a bunch of other people).

SWTOR story quality, GW2/RIFT zone events, and TERAs combat system would truly be a perfect game for me. Till then, Ill be on TERA and SWTOR for their respective strengths.

4.0 out of 5 stars Tera Review May 22, 2012

By Jyde

Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   

I am an avid MMOer and have played most MMOs out there. TERA is unique in that it's combat system is loads of fun and will definitely be the wave of the future for all MMOs to come. For those companies that don't get on board with this type of combat system will be left behind.

I have to say that I had not even heard of Tera prior to the Open Beta weekend event which is unfortunate as I think the PR is what holds this game back from being a huge hit. I managed to play it for one day and was sold, ordered the same day.

What initially drew me into Tera was the environments. It's the best looking MMO I have ever played. The world looks so good you can't help but be excited about getting to the next zone to see what's in store. I find myself being pleasantly suprised with each new zone and there are lots of zones which are all pretty good size. You'll not find yourself coming up short of content or zones anytime soon. There is so much to see that you can't help but want to stay in some areas because they look so good. I love Cutthroat Harbor. Animations are outstanding and I have found myself laughing out loud, being pleasantly surprised at some of the animations that I experience when fighting an opponent. These little details simply put the game above the rest.

What has made me stay in TERA is the combat system. It's hands down the funnest combat system i've played in an MMO. As one reviewer posted, based on your class you'll find yourself, dodging, blocking, attacking evading and constantly moving to gain better tactical advantage to your strikes. The creatures you fight also have a pretty sweet AI behind them as you'll face some creatures that could have anywhere from 4-10 different attacks or so to throw at you. Then add that they can enrage which changes their timing of their attacks. You'll find yourself trying to time attacks and looking for tells for when you can find the opportunity of attack. The combat definitely does not get old.

Classes and they way they play are also a huge boost to the game. I've played 4 different classes so far and have to admit they each feel and play differently which expands on the games replayability. I've found something I have liked for each class and they feel unique. TERA is a standard TANK, HEALS and DPS game so you could find yourself looking for another support class but the LFG was recently implemented across server to help remedy that and personally has not been an issue for me at all.

What TERA does lack and the reason I gave it 4 out of 5 stars. The systems that are in game are all solid and the game runs flawlessly for what is there. The problem is that there are some game systems that are not available yet. PvP battlegrounds are not available so this does hurt the game a little. There is open world pvp and dueling and even Guild Wars so some pvp is available but battlegrounds are missing although they are scheduled to land sometime this year.

This is the primary system that is not available.

I think TERA if they stay on course and keep implementing new systems will be hard to beat and around for years to come. They've recently added the political system for guilds. It appears that housing or guild housing could also be a possibility as the areas are already in game just not available to use yet. So I think throughout the course of the year you'll see great things to come for TERA.

If you are still unsure take a chance or when a free weekend opens up check it out. It's well worth it. I even told myself that I was done playing Fantasy MMOs after I quit playing SWTOR. But out of boredom I gave TERA a shot and am sooo glad I did. Best MMO in years at least since the beginning days of WoW.
