Ero-moe MMORPG Tera Online seems to be not only the sexiest MMORPG yet, but also the most expensive, having already been written off prior to its launch with the news that it apparently combines a monthly fee of ¥2700 with item charges and the ¥7000 cost of the game itself.
The price is rather well hidden, for obvious reasons:
Some would say the game is worth it all the same:
However, most prospective Japanese players are ridiculing this pricing as a rip-off of the first order which has doomed the title before it even launched – although coming from the same country which has spawned and sustained the likes of IdolMaster their reaction perhaps deserves some sceptical consideration.
Whether the sky-high pricing will stay or be quietly revised with developers insisting it was not actually final and accusing their customers of jumping the gun will likely determine just how few people end up playing the game.
No firm subscription details for the much censored US release have been announced, although the game is available for pre-order now despite this.

Sure if they dont CENSOR US VER IN ANYWAY im willing to buy
well lolis are expensive
no they are not, u can pick them up for less than 10000yen and she will bring her friends too.
Bring me some and i will respect you.
They have to remove the nipples to conserve the bandwidth though!
Knowing the censorship of our shit country, they probably will since children may end up playing this game. BUT, I'm willing to gamble on them to not censor the game.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but children playing this would not be the problem, since they wouldn't care about young looking characters dressing and moving in suggestive ways - they wouldn't even get it. I doubt kids are even supposed to be playing TERA, since even MMOs with minimal-to-no gore still have violence.
It's the adult crowd they'd want to censor. In American media, such interests put you on the same level as serial killers or Satanists.
as much as it disappoints me, this ^
Wow, you dont even seem to know what satanists really are.
Brotip: Not what your religious, aka retarded, believes may tell you
Isn't this game Mature rating?
There's a bunch of twelve year olds playing CoD...
They already announced that the Elin would be censored off the US/EU Version.
europe just cares 'bout gore lvl
lolis wont be restricted from us HAHAHAHA poor america ! ;P
Your customs told me differently on a connecting flight with you guys... Good thing I was either lucky of have a good poker face, or I would be in some English pig jail right now.
No, they didn't. Enough with the spreading false rumors.
They did. Just search for "elin" in the official forums and you'll find a lot of topics asking "when are you going to show us what the censored elin look like?" and "please give us the option to uncensor them in the options" etc...
Loli pantsu is quite the expensive commodity.
You guys keep forgetting to mention that TERA will censor all of those loli pantsu for the western release...
Wich besides the overhyped and overexpensive price will ruin the game even more. Potencial customers will either look for "private" servers or forget about it and move along to another game.
Greed has killed allot of P2P games, some of them go F2P in a desperate move from the hype(and in this case "censorship") backslash.
All this speculation, yet in the end your bound to try the game at least once. in which case your still gonna buy the game and play it. They have won.
I'm gonna torrent the game, extract the models, and make my own fapviewer in Blender. I win.
censored.... ill pass, fucken american conservatists
Seriously folks, everything costs this much in Japan.
Aion costs the same thing over there. Sure as hell doesn't cost that here.
I desperately want to know how to extract models from games. Not just this one, but in general. No better way to learn good modeling and texturing workflow than from those who have solved the problems before you. I'm already an animator, but there are detail issues I've yet to solve in my modeling. Once you model the hips and shoulders correctly, there are methods of setting up your edge loops so that you can basically do any move but Indian Style sitting without any custom rigging beyond a character studio biped (unless there's some crazy clothing of course, which there always is).
free download also
It's actually cheaper Pirated-10$ for an account and 25$ for a month from what I heard.
You could just go pirate the uncensored version and replace the loli models in the Amurikkan version.
Your logic is flawed, if it was supposed to be general. Haven't touched FFXIV. Not even it's cover. Because it wasn't promising.
I doubt I would even bother testing or pirate TERA due to it's expensive pricing. I don't value games by just design. |:V
They already started censoring. The japanese version as compared to korean version has in the game textures censored nipples, removed shadings around vagina and halved resolutions of some textures.
Elin got censored due to En-Masse despite customer outcries. And you know what En-Masse did? Treated their customers as second-citizens. Tons of lock threads from customer inquiries about the armor censoring issue and the quality. Provided solid facts why elin shouldn't have gotten censored from several games and shows and En-Masse completely ignored until they finally came out and called it "a matter of opinion and art".
Now elin is glitched forever where her clothes won't even change proper color and her legs clip into the foreign material.
I brought JP Tera due to those idiots and it looks like everyone from SWTOR/WoW flocked to the forums in their asian-theme mmo hating ways.
Defiantly will be looking for PS of this game. Hopefully Korean. This company can kiss my behind.
Price for JP-Tera has since dropped! The game is only $50 dollars now and monthly subscription has dropped as well.
Please tell me you're trolling. Do you have a source on this?
Ya what they said was true just take a look on their forums and frogster's anit-asian mmo hate-speech too.
I hope the developer realizes that most of the world is in an economic downturn.
I can only support so many habits and toys. At $35 dollars a month....?
Plus the rumored NA character censorship and possible crap gameplay. Think I'll take a wait and see approach on this.
Might be the best $35 that I never spent.
+1, I would say the price is pretty high if you look at it at first, but if you convert that to a daily amount you pay, it's only about $1.16 a day. If you play 4 hours a day, that's 30 cents an hour. I think the price gap mainly would restrict some minors to play since adults like us would think it's expensive. People are less likely to "hack" when you are spending so much money just to play a game.
Seconded
good game? maybe
good graphics? yep
good phiics? sure
beautiful scenarios? looks like
bootylicious? faptastic
lolis? a must
price? 90dollar, then 90 dolla every 2 months,plus item charges.... uh.... no good, NEXT!
At least their game has UNCENSORED loli pantsu.
They are paying for the real thing while we get Elin with concealed thighs and panstu...
just get the korean version :X
I just hope there will be a good server emulator like L2J for Lineage II.
The trick is to sell the game low
And put the price high
also tempting enough to try for one month
as long as i got a bot haha
You know why the charge so much to Japanese player, because they know those lolicons will never be able to resist no matter what price.
sadly, he maybe right about that, they really know how to milk the japanese otaku.
That elin model has some highly detailed butt crack you see in the panty shots, is there camel toe also? and will all this be censored in western version T_T
i know D':>
This game is total crap. I can buy a good game every month for 35.
This game is actually pretty good. Can't compare all games on price. Though they messed up the pricing on this one..
The pricing for this is probably just for Japan. There are big spenders over there. It's not gonna fly over here in the NA, especially when they're considering putting tights on all the little animal girls.
I can't agree that the game is crap because I have not played it.You can't get new games for $35 but you can get two great games on Steam for about $35. Waiting for Guild Wars 2 which is much better and only need to pay once for the game.
I love that you state your ignorance about Tera based on not having played it, but not with GW2. ^^ Just a little double-standard for you.
Guild Wars 2 will suck, and you know that.
Orly?
A handheld game maybe, but when was the last time good console/PC games cost 35 bucks?
Recettear: $20+
Simple yet addictive.
Got Recettear for 5$ with 4 other games in a Indie pack. More than worth it.
Ugh... I don't think a prostitute can emulate the little animal girls very well.
Naah I prefer to pay a cos player prostitute that dress the same in Tera then have undress her and have a kinky S&M sex with her.
Team Fortress 2 is free.
lol, now thats just mean.
GTA: San Andreas
Altitude
Half-Life Series
Hammerfight
The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom
Portal 1
Day of Defeat: Source
Far Cry
Mirror's Edge
Cryostasis
Commander Keen
They all cost way below 35 bucks.
And, damn, they're better than anything you've probably played so far.
Lol so many shit in a single post.
Your taste in games is horrible.
what are you talking about? far cry, half life is better taht any asian loli game
Actually, it's $90 up front, THEN $35 a month. When was the last time a good console game cost $90?
...then when was the last time a good console game cost $420 PER YEAR?
Besides, you CAN buy a good game for $35 every month. Recettear, Cave Story, Shadow Complex, PixelJunk games, etc...
Almost all new games in Japan cost as much. With the current exchange rate most PS3 games are up to the equivalent of $100 now.
humble bundle says hi
You can often find a good game for under $30 online if you shop around.
Then there's gamefly which is 15.95 a month.
witcher 2 (metacritic 87) cost less than 30 on steam.
And is possibly the bast game so far this year
The problem is: It's too fucking short in the second half.
When the problem is the game is too short, you know its a good game!
A good game that cost 35$ monthly?Well this is the first to even charge a 35$ monthly fee...trust me the game is fun at certain points,but totally not worth 35$.Play ArcheAge or something.
Not if they want more than five subscribers, anyway.
and for sure it will not cost 35$ in us/eu..
