    I bought Terraria years ago for like $3 while it was still beta testing/first launching. I have played over 900 hours and still get use out of it. Some of the best $3 I’ve ever spent

    I tried to get into terraria so many times, but this 2d perspective is just not doing it for me. For the same reasons, I don’t play metroidvanias and platformers. There are some platformer that I like, Gris, for example, but that’s not exactly the same. I have no problems with Core keeper or Stardew valley, so the genre is not the problem. I need to reconcile with it and accept that some games are just not for me.

      Me too. It’s probably been 10 years since I’ve last played. I have a solid 64 hours played and no achievements completed. Maybe I should check it out when this update comes out. It’ll probably feel like a brand new game at this point.

        10 years ago was like back when hallowed armor was endgame and mech bosses were the last bit?

        There’s so much more content now that honestly makes the entire progression completely different

        Theres also a wealth of mods now that acts functionally as a whole new game as well (calamity being the biggest one)

        I love the game I just hate having to build the houses and manage the people. It’s not creative it’s just make these boxes in this certain way.

          I am also not a fan of building stuff and making it look nice. Just follow the easy rules to make a liveable cube and call it a day. That said I think terraria is the only game where I would consider actually spending some time making it look a bit nicer since it is so easy to do. I remember last time after completing the game I looked at some other peoples builds and got inspired.

    1.4.5 is a major update? Then why isn’t it 1.5.0 or 2.0.0? Use semver, people!

      The problem is that they have been for far too long “just one last small change” that then ends I’ll becoming huge.

      From 1.0 to now it has changed enough that it could be a complete sequel.

      Well, Terraria 1.4 was initially going to be version 1.3.6 until they kept adding more and more. This could end up the same way.

    Wake me up when they add a non-binary option.

    People said it couldn’t be done because the game was finished, that was determined to be a lie.
