Tera Online: After the Merge

We went from 6+ servers to 2. One PvE and one PvP server. That says a lot, especially since they just recently released console ports of the game.

So how is it after the server merges?

IT'S THE SAME LOL.

My beloved archer. I forgot to tone down the skin complexion a bit. She's so fair, when the sun shines on her it leaves an afterimage.

Also since the servers were merged, a lot of players were condensed into one server. That means it's fairly easier to get into lvl 50 instances. Low level instances are still shit though, might as well level up and solo them later on.

Only Tera allows grown up men to play as little girls. That's a tad disturbing. But you don't want to hear that from a guy playing as a high elf.

Mountain climbing is fun to do, but like the irl activity, it takes time.

So, should you play Tera Online after the server merge? Yes, you should!

Tera Online in 2018: How Does it Hold Up?

Before you talk to me about the new Godsfall update, let me talk to you about my 97 hours in the Lost Realm.

Honestly I don't know how to structure this blog post. So let's just answer a few questions instead.

Should you play for the graphics? 8/10 YES.
Should you play for the character/character creation? 7/10 YES.

Should you play for fashion and vanity? 10/10 YES.

Actually 5/10 because most of the fashion items are cash shop, and if they're available at auction, you'll probably need to farm a month of gold before you can buy them. Not to mention most of the cloth armor in game is kind of lewd and not really okay for a prude like me who prefers the costumes you'll usually get in Aura Kingdom.

Elves really look good with braids though.

Should you play for the gameplay? 7/10 YES. THIS GAME CAN MAKE YOU DESTROY YOUR PERIPHERALS WITH ALL THE KEYS YOU ARE PRESSING.

Is the community/player base still alive? 8/10 YES. There are still lots of active players and guilds online.

So overall, should you still play Tera Online in 2018? Yes, provided you have a PC that can play it in full, otherwise if you end up with quality like in the following capture, forget it.
