En Masse Entertainment's TERA is celebrating its first year and the changes that those 365 days have brought. We managed to catch up to Patrick Sun to talk about TERA. It's a terrific interview that you will want to discuss in the comments after reading!
MMORPG: What makes players go with the Warrior over the other classes, do you think?
Patrick Sun: Various reasons in my opinion. Aesthetically, players love to dual wield, and this is the only class that allows them to do that. The warrior is also a very unique class that is a blend of DPS and evasive tank that offers a challenge for players to master. In the wrong hands it’s probably an average class, but a skilled warrior can go toe to toe with almost any other player or BAM in the game.

Nope, nothing at all.

That 20v20 BG can't come soon enough, I hope the XP reward in it is high, I have so many 30-40 alts I want to level but I cant go through the questing for a second time.
Currently happy enough with my 60 warrior in 3v3 arena, definitely the most fun i've had in arenas in an MMO.
Happy 1st Anniversary!
I Beta'd this game, and played some after launch, but due to real-life situations distracting me, and a difficult time finding a guild to "settle in with", plus the ever-persistent "need" so many have to rush through the game, I found myself kinda left behind in the game. I lost momentum and after that, interest in playing.
The switch to F2P really has me "eh". I'm not a fan of F2P, but I did enjoy this game enough that I might give it a try again. It's in the same boat as Aion for me. I already bought the game, so it's just a matter of installing it and checking it out again. Who knows? Maybe I can find a good guild to settle in with this time.
What's the population like on the PvP vs PvE servers?
The games populations seem healthy of both sides of the pond, I play late at night and I was in a group killing BAMS, those huge Rock Mobs and Giants at 12.30am which cannot be bad. It has a great f2p model, the club is a great idea and with the federation patch adding more metagame its looking very good for Tera. Shame it wasn't in at release as that would have made it more popular. A few more interesting things to do out side of comabt would be nice but overall I'm really like it now and its become my main MMO instead of TOR or GW2. Though I have been looking for a game of this type since my Lineage 2 days.

The core game is the same with just a few tweeks here and there but the future updates are adding a more interesting "elder" game, though the updates are going to take a while to hit the US and EU.
