This game is going to be fine overall. Sure there will be some that wont like everything about it but I think overall the game will have enough returning and new players to be "successful" and that success is not measured only by having more subs than wow.

Also I think ppl should play games for themselves and not rely on other ppls opinions to play or not play. Try it out if you like it fantastic if you dont well hope you find a game you do like.

I admit I have been playing Tera just to tide me over from Alpha to beta and I must say there are a few things I like mind you im only 41 Berserker but Im having fun killing stuff solo doing quests and leaving bams alone until im about 10 lvls above them then going back to own them. The ppl playing it love it and some sound curious about ARR. However like most games you probably wont like everything about it still trying to get used to Global chat omg talk about alot of chat noise lol.

My heart is here with FFXIV ARR but it doesnt hurt to check other games out for yourself and just agree to disagree you know?
