Oh geez ... new MMO by Square-Enix
fohfoh:
Alan Wake was pretty nostalgic. That's probably why I liked it. However, it had good controls. None of that RE/RE2/Dino Crisis spinning shit. Sort of like controlling a remote control car.
My new wants for a game:
1. Game play!
2. Controls (Pretty much the above... but more specific)
3. Theme
4. Graphics
I can easily overlook 3 and 4 if 1 and 2 are done well. (ie: Dead Space)
I'm not sure if I'd love another game full of heavy rain controls though... but the premise was really cool. :)

Do you mean like grinding together, grouping for instances and bosses? And it does have PvP. From what I've seen. I haven't seen a raid yet, but I think that's a good thing. There are many cutscenes that includes your character when progressing the storyline (Something you'd think Square-Enix would do much of). But it does prevent others from joining if haven't progressed as far, but that's the same as WoW in Cata's storyline.
Well, I'm looking forward to Tera also. Have my console controller ready.

I wonder if gamepad is the preferred input system for TERA. I do think that it's easier to move around (because such an action based combat system is used in well known hits like God of War or Darksiders) but I watched a report of a recent Frogster (Europe's publisher for TERA) where people from the press played some sessions and used a gamepad but wiped against one of those big crabs. Of course, that video material was not allowed to be shown in that report ;D

I already hate the idea of playing first person shooters on a console with controllers and the targeting system in TERA is almost the same concept...
It works pretty well, but I wouldn't depend on it. I'd rather just have a keyboard and mouse anyday over a gamepad with the exceptions being platformers.

I believe it goes back to PlayStation 1. Back in 1996 there were a lot of people buying keyboards and mice for PS so that they could play Red Alert.
