Tera Rising                                                                                                                                           Ashley SSS

 

There are not a lot of facets of the game, and despite its 3D visuals the TERAexperience is very 2D in that it is flat. What you see is what you get: Pretty visuals, a decent combat system, and nothing else. There is no involved world or story to get involved with, no bustling community full of helpful and friendly people (my community optimism was quickly murdered with Rising). I would dare to say that there is no "TERA experience". Aside from a few moments where you go "Holy shit, that thing is huge!" or "Well that's a pretty view," there is nothing that really captures you. You play to level, and you level to hit a gear grind. There is literally nothing else to do in TERA but grind.

 

Aura Kingdom                                                                                                           Xairylle - January 8, 2014

 

Aura Kingdom is a free-to-play open world MMORPG that uses a targeted combat system. You have eight characters to choose from: Guardian, Duelist, Ravager, Wizard, Sorcerer, Bard, Grenadier and Gunslinger. You have a primary weapon early game and you will later get to choose a secondary weapon that you can switch to as you progress. Having experienced plenty of action-based systems, I was worried I would get bored with the game’s targeted system. However, combat in Aura Kingdom is different. It allows the player to move around while attacking the targeted enemy, and this allowed me to dodge enemy skills while continuing with my attack. The targeted system allowed me to get the action I craved in spite of its limitations, which is definitely a plus in my books.
