En Masse Entertainment Discusses Westernization For TERA

  • I wish I could somehow stop being part of this "Western World" just because I live there atm. I don't want to be forced to play a westernized game just because people speak for me and apparently the graphic style I have to enjoy is something like EQ2 or Daoc. No. No I don't like that.

    A mere translation (if possible not babelfish) would be more than enough for me. Keep the rest as it is. The game works. You don't fix what isn't broken. I want Popori, I want paperbag monsters and I don't mind a more grindy feel to it than the "western" MMOs have.

    Agree, because they will westernize game for half or more year and after this game will not be for "western" people (graphics) and not for people that like asian games because of stupid half baked western story.

    Koreans should release double language games english/korean if you like it then play if dont wait for westernized version.

    I have to quote this for truth. Getting real sick of this "westernization" word, needs to be obliterated out of everyones vocabulary.

    Might as well just release the game as it is.

    I absolutely adore the eastern art style and combat. Though i have to say, i'd like to destroy the entire 12 year old loli nonsense, but that's me.

    What i don't want is to have to sit in one spot grinding pointless monsters for hours on end as the most efficient form of leveling. You can keep that in for the people that enjoy it but i want other options on par for advancement.

    Entirely quest based, if you can't handle it maybe Tera is not for you and you should play another game like rift or gw2.

    This guy is playing from Taiwan, streaming mostly just stright quest progression through the game ( he has a lvl38 Berserker & his alt is a lvl12 Warrior. Elin oc  -.-).  Even if you don't like the lol character, you can still get an idea how gameplay will be as he progresses.  http://www.justin.tv/naup#/w/778915600/4

    Velika: City of Wheels: Among the mortal races, the humans were the only one that never built cities or great empires; a curse laid upon them by their creator, Gidd, forced them to wander as nomads for twenty centuries...

    I just wish that developers didn't think westernizing a game meant fill it full of asinine quests and calling it a day. Go find the dragons treasure and bring it back to me so that I can give you my +1 dirty socks of awsomeness!

    Thank you for that livestream, it did totally convince me not to buy the game, in less than 30 seconds. I just can't stand graphics like that and the combat looked really silly :(

    Oh well, I hope the game lives up to all the followers expectations, to each their own and so on. The more diversity this genre gets the better it is.

    The bouncy/flouncy animations for the females are going to be a hard pill to swallow. Otherwise it looked alright.

    My opinion?

    Looks nice, the combat is a nice add on. Everything else feels the same though.

    I'll keep a watch out for it but it's not high on my radar.

    Help me Bioware, you're my only hope.

    Is ToR going to be good? Dude it's Bioware making a freaking star wars game, all signs point to awesome. -G4tv MMo report.

    Based on my experience so far I hope they'll just translate it and leave everything as it is in the korean client.

    For those that think it will be a grindfest - it's not only possible to level exclusively through quests, but there are so many quests that you can skip a fair amount of them (and I'm not counting repeatables). Also - you're never stuck in the same area doing different quests but killing the same mobs (for example while questing from lvl 30 to 31 I had to kill 7 different types of mobs).

    What is really interesting is that for leveling to 30 I only explored about 25% of the map (25% of TERA's map is close to a faction's whole map in Aion :D). I'm pretty sure that a big part of the gameworld is designed for endgame.

    Amen!

    I liked Anime / Manga so I don't have a problem with TERAs style. Actually, I prefer it. =)

    Like i said korean games are not for everyone, and we will have "westernized" version 6 months or more after koreans, butchered from every fluff that make this games fun, they will make this PG 12 without blood and casual freindly so boss will die in 2 hits and drop epics for everyone.
