Hey guys!
So I got invited a couple of months back to be in a focus group test for a new MMO called Tera Online.
This game is going to be good. It is made from the same people that made Lineage 2. It is being developed with the unreal engine I believe. the graphics are amazing also. For being in pre-beta the client runs smoothly and I didn't crash once. I've tested quite a few MMOs in the past and this one by far feels more complete already than most of those did at launch (Age of Conan).
The targeting system is really refreshing too. You actually have to use skill! There is a cross-hair and you have to click your mouse to do basic attack moves, much like in an FPS shooter. the combat is really fast paced and loads of fun. I could see myself grinding away mobs for hours because of how fun it is.
The lore for the game is pretty good too. There are 6 different races to choose and 8 classes that are all defined. They are going to officially have a press release at Game Developers Conference in March.
Then also just announced En Masse Entertainment, from right here in Seattle is going to be working with them to localize Tera.
"En Masse is dedicated to bringing players the best massively multiplayer online games in the world.
