Sorry I can't get into Tera. My very first day involved 2 hours of zone chat discussing why wanting to bang the loli wasn't pedophilia. The fact that consensus landed on the side it shouldn't have left an ashen taste in my mouth.

skills as in you could make a build specifically to destroy FotM builds instantly in the cool multiplayer PvP Turtle Game.

You could and you can right now even more because there is no meta at the moment. Mind you I'm not a big fan of sPVP in GW2 but they do some things so incredibly well that I put up with the some bland aspects of it. The biggest thing being the equal footing everyone is on. Gear/Level/Grinding don't matter, which makes it quite a lot more skill based than the majority of popular MMOs out there.

Skyforge is like a bland piece of cardboard sprinkled with cardboard dust that's been thrown into an oven. MmmM Good.

That night we performed the rite and opened the gate.
Halfway through, I went to fix us both a coke float.
By the time I got back, he'd gone insane.
Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.

TERA's combat is more satisfying than Skyforge though. That plus TERA is your typical MMO open world where as Skyforge is more like Vindictus. Yes...Elin...but honestly I never found them difficult to ignore while I smash a huge gently caress off sword into the face of some demon as my FOV is really far back so I can see the enemy telegraphs properly.

It's just goony hypersensitivity to anime poo poo.

I showed my wife Tera and she said the Elin were cute, I told her they are one of the more popular races, she asked me if it was because lots of girls play the game.

This is how a normal person/the devs think.

The first thing you do in Tera is disable global. Fixes a ton of issues.

I usually turn chat off in this game but honestly I never saw a ton of pedo talk other than the same type of conversations that happen here on SA. They do happen rather frequently though so I made a custom chat channel called "STFU" which works nicely.

[*] Vistas, exploration points, interesting zone design, rewards for fully completing a zone encourage players to explore zones vs. WoD's endgame of sitting in your garrison all day and Blizzard having to hamfist reasons for players to actually leave their garrison and do world PVE content (flying pre-reqs in 6.2)

Wildstar actually does have this with paths, particularly explorer. GW2's implementation is better, though. Or maybe the implementation is similar and the game is just better...

seriously do this, it immediately makes Tera a hundred times better. Also you can probably mod the client so elins are like, crates or barrels or some generic poo poo, oddly they don't try too hard to prevent that.

Huh. I saw that I could make a bulldog smoking a pipe and thought, "Better than an elf."
Didn't notice anything but demon chicks and other pipe smoking fat racoons and bulldogs with giant shields and plate armor.

I just enjoyed the absurdity.

So you shouldn't play Wildstar because the community is dumb and obsessed with being "hardcore", while you should play Tera despite the fact that literal pedophilia is rampant?

No, didn't say that. Just mentioned the only things I saw - like, 2 years ago I think - were dogs smoking pipes and tall demon chicks.

If there are pedos in the game - like in Blade and Soul, or Archeage from what I hear - I'll give it a permanent pass.

As for Wildstar, I will probably play a bit when it goes free since I like levelling and playing with housing - but never raid - so their "hardcore" bullshit is a non-issue for me.

You shouldn't play wildstar because the developers are obsessed with being "hardcore". The community of all MMOs is packed to the rafters with imbeciles and deviants, that's not going to change regardless of which one you play.

:eng101: the key difference is wildstar is a poo poo game while tera is not despite all the retarded anime poo poo and such bolted on a pretty good combat engine

also i dont think anyone really gives a gently caress about wildstar community its just one of the mocking vectors itt
