    Imo, TERA did have a bit more content at it's launch. At the very least for my play style it did, but it's hard to say. This game didn't launch with any vanity options nor any PvP. You'd be amazed how much time people can spend on those alone.

    Personally, I dislike the current craft system we have in place, so that's wasted content for me. This game has so much emphasis on crafting though. Much more than I would like, but that's my preference. It's great for people into that sort of thing I guess.

    I currently enjoy playing only 1 of the battle classes in this game, and everything else I'm impartial to at best. The rest I simply loathe playing. I'm hoping more iconic classes that I favor like THF, DRK, or even RDM get added. So that system is whatever currently for me. It's wonderful for people that love all the battle classes. I wouldn't mind it as much, but with given how fast you lvl even without rushing...

    It's hard to place an accurate measure on the amount of content when a lot of it doesn't really agree with your playstyle. So, like I said it's really hard to say.

    I likes TERA, but cant beleive that you think TERA has more content at launch. The only thing made you think it has mroe content is probably because of World PvP. The World PvP nevertheless is just group ganking single players and/or playing hugging the entrance game. It doesnt have a real PvP system until battleground installed after the patch.

    For me, yes it did. If you don't agree that's cool, no system works for everyone. Game kept me busy for many months after release, where as I am personally bored 2 months into this game. It is what it is.
    (Maybe it would be more accurate to say this game lacks content that many people enjoy, perhaps?)

    Nope. I didn't play on a PvP world, so that did not apply to me. Duels and that other form of group PvP was fun for me personally. I enjoyed it all the same, and spent quite a large portion of my time doing so.

    I also enjoyed few of the crafts, but probably because I could make outfits for the vanity system. At present on this game, I feel crafting is just lvling something for the sake of having something to do. (Minus a few crafts.)

    I had a few alts because I loved a bunch of the different classes in that game, and it didn't take like a week to hit end-game. Just my opinion.

    I loves TERA's combat system, but that game has serious issue with in-depth lore and or any meaningful missions/quests. All mobs looks exactly the same with just name changes. It is also jsut basically one dungeon for gear and almost FATE like grinding for PvP gear at weekend when launch. It was much worst than current FF14.

    I'll agree with you about the lore, though I blame that due to poor translation. To be fair, you also described this game as well when it comes to questing and mobs being the same, minus a re-skin/color.

    I see what you mean by dungeons, but some of the best items were craft-only. I could see that about BG being grindy too. Though, when battlegrounds came out it was FUN for a lot of people. If you just zerged in a mindless BG, you'd often get wrecked unlike FATEs.

    I respect your opinion though, so we can agree to disagree.
