Tera has great combat

It's hard to find an MMORPG with outstanding graphics and involving combat, especially if you're shopping for free. Tera provides just that, a F2P MMO equipped with a visceral battle system and beautiful visuals. Unlike every other MMORPG on the market, landing your attacks requires you to aim them. Each class has a unique skillset and engaging abilities. There are many dangerous and challenging bosses to fight in every area, and the servers are populated enough to see PVP all over the world.

Guild Wars 2 is the only MMORPG as pretty as Tera.

Tera is a brilliant MMORPG and definitely worth a try now that it won't dent your wallet. Despite this, it is in no way perfect. The questing is incredibly monotonous and boring. It's all grinding. Almost every task you are assigned will require killing either numerous enemies or a boss monster. Although the combat is fun and responsive, most skills have a small cast time which roots you in place.

I have really enjoyed my time on Tera so far. I don't mind the huge grind when fighting enemies is entertaining and challenging when I pull large amounts. The PVP is controlled by the guild in command of the zone, when it's turned on everyone is free game. I've fought my fair share of players, winning requires precision and maneuverability.

Enemies can be pulled in gigantic packs which allows you to farm quickly.

Tera isn't half bad. If you can trade off poor crafting mechanics and dull quests for fantastic combat and some of the best graphics any MMORPG has to offer, you should download it whenever you have some spare time to play (you may start playing when the download is on 10%.). There are a few annoying mechanics, but if you're looking for a game with great endgame PVP check out Tera.

I decided to try out Tera

I know I'll regret this decision, but I'm doing it anyway. I'm going to play Tera with a few friends and see how long it takes for me to get bored. Ever since I quit World of Warcraft, I spent months searching for another MMORPG that could substitute or beat it. Overall I must have tried at least 100 different MMO games, and researched many more. I never once found another MMORPG that could measure up to WoW in more than a couple aspects.

It's got the cool feature where you can play before you finish downloading!

After wasting so much time searching for a game that didn't exist (Guild Wars 2 came very close), MMO games became something I tried to avoid. Occasionally I get dragged into a game by my friends and become incredibly excited for a few days. This is the case with Tera, I have been roped into trying it.

Tera looks like an enjoyable MMORPG. The quests are outdated, there's lots of grinding, and the servers appear to be in flux. However, the action RPG element sounds very addictive. If you can't aim your abilities, you'll miss. Hopefully this raises the skill cap enough to make it more challenging than other online games.

Not many developers are courageous enough to make the jump from Pay to Play (P2P), to Free to Play (F2P).  However, it's becoming more common for an MMORPG that isn't raking in the desired cash or community to take a chance by going free. Tera has intrigued me since it was in beta, because it's a stolen version of Lineage 3.

I'm glad they decided to go F2P without going pay to win. I have an intense hatred for pay to win games. Why would any sane person play a game where success relies on the size of your wallet? It's a disgrace to the gaming industry. One that irritates me every time I see it.

I am looking forward to trying Tera out, if I play it for more than a few days I'll probably write a review. I don't usually review MMORPGs, and I don't tend to make it a habit. If it's something worth playing or avoiding, I shall let you know.
