Thegamer.vg has an interesting video interview with En Masse Entertainment senior community manager Evan "Scapes" Berman recorded live at last week's E3 convention in Los Angeles. The three-part interview, which features over twenty minutes of footage from En Masse's upcoming TERA action MMORPG, touches on everything from character creation, to class skills, to equipment customization.
"With the focus group [testing this past March], we saw the Crystal Socketing System, which will allow your armor and weapons to be a little more customized toward what you want to focus on. If you want to have healing per second, or mana per second, or additional damage when somebody's knocked down...these are all crystals that you'll socket into your armor and weapons and you'll have a combination of them," Berman says.
The walkthrough focuses on character creation, and also shows a bit of PvE in the form of quests and starter area gameplay. View the first portion of the video at Thegamer.vg.

I still wouldn't trust that man as far as I could throw him. Reading the things he did while at Flagship... wouldn't want him as a CM in any game I play now.

Look pretty and and the HUD is nice enough. I like the map. But pretty doesnt cut it if the game play stinks... I mean look at Aion. I'm hoping it will be better than mt low expectations.

Where's the gameplay video? All that video is is character classes.

I am so glad they asked such useless questions such as:
How many servers at launch?
How many people per server?

Oh wow, armor and weapon sockets. That's cutting edge.

I like the fact that you can lose the crystals when you die as people won't use death as a mean to back to bind points.
