I love silly fluff.
Pets and mounts are a game maker/killer for me. If I don't have critters to collect, my attention doesn't last very long. Note by my 87 mounts and 64 pets in WoW...o_o
Everyone has their vices! Mine are pixelated animal friends...
Fishing would be a great addition too. It's a good time killer while waiting for a queue.
Know what i want in this game? I want a Bar, or a nightclub with all the Tera chick dancing except Elin. In that bar you can play mini games to win prize with NPC.
Don't see what the complaining is about, more side stuff that doesn't impact the gameplay purely for aesthetics is perfectly fine imo, it gives that portion of the player base pretty happy too. I mean WoW is adding alotta bullshet lately, but that's my opinion, but it keeps majority of others happy and paying. Smart m'f'ers
