    Well, to be honest I just read that, with a level head.  And really.. im not seeing anything new or slightly different in terms of how characters react with players... They give them a personality, which is reflected with their dialogue.. which changes as you progress through a story.. like.. a normal conversation in real life as you go through a conversation your dialogue and tone changes... TERA's main interest is the combat (and then monster designs) . But you take away that combat and its very similar to the rest of the mmorpgs, which is a shame, i do admit though TERA looks good.. but not genre breaking im sad to say. Im still going to get the game, but only to tie me over untill GW 2 is out.. :)

    There is no genre changing game and will probably never be. It's just that the new games will keep getting better and better but I have yet to see something extra-ordinary. Take out the combat from TERA and it's similar to the other MMORPGS, take out the soul system and rifts from Rift and it's also similar, voice acting and story from swtor, same, and...you see where this leads don't you? take out the dynamic event features from GW2 and it's still the same, by your logic ofc.

    I was only stating (not slating).. the simple fact that when I read this through, I didnt see anything new.. it's just the regular character building technique for an NPC, im not slating the game ...but to stand out... you got to be different; even more-so in this climate... And I dont want to go on about GW2 features Ill just simply say GW2 is doing alot more than just the dynamic events to make it unique and an interesting game.  TERA looks good (yes I said it again, you seemed to in-validate the fact I said that) im looking forward to seeing what they can bring to the table the combat looks fun and love the world design and monsters, Id be interested to see how their crafting works aswell.. is there any articles?
