Is this game worth a buy or is it shit

Not long until you reach puberty, user.

get starbound instead with frackin universe mod. you'll have way more fun.

starbound is broken beyond repair, no mods can fix it

i played terraria and it was boring as shit with bad music. but starbound fu has tons of things to craft adn you can build your house with a lot more uniqueness than terraria.

Go away Tiy, this is the only good thing to come from you're shitty game.

Terraria is the only game I can say that a majority of Yea Forums likes

This game is literally worth more per dollar of purchase value than any other video game which has ever been made

Terraria is great, absolutely worth a buy.

Probably because you didn't get past the wall of flesh, the game gets better in hardmode, way more content and less grinding and yeah I'll admit that starbound has better building mechanics but the rest of the game its still shit

it's like minecraft but with less focus on building and more focus on combat.
it's got clear game progression through gear tiers. you get a set of gear, use it to either start mining/collecting the next set of gear or to kill a boss, use that stuff to get to the next tier etc.
It's fun but once you do it through the tiers/bosses once you sort of get over it.
That being said you'll sink like 30h or more just getting through the first time.

The game's clunky as fuck to actually build anything nice in though unlike Minecraft, but where it does shine with building is a huge amount of decorative blocks, furniture and decorations which Minecraft lacks (without mods like bibliocraft & decocraft)

If you have a friend or two who also havent played Terraria definitely play it with them. It's fun as shit with 1 or 2 friends.

wait did that guy have two broken wrists? hahha

Frakkin makes it playable. Still not as good as terraria but Frakkin can get you two lengthy playthroughs worth a starbound sale.

I can guarantee you I can make anything in Terraria nicer than you can in starbound.

>it's like minecraft but with less focus on building and more focus on combat.

Terraria isn't anything like minecraft whatsoever.

Maybe you should try going to the Underworld and unlocking hardmode retard.

real question

If you've played Terraria until moon lord updates, is it worth playing Minecraft?

I feel like it's the same grind/carrot system.

I also no longer enjoy Terraria for strictly building.

bait

see

Do not listen to anyone that compares this game to Minecraft, the only similarity is blocky building.
They are magic binds to contain his power, Blizzard would've have died then and there if he didn't have them on

the game offers endless fun. Are you done with your first run? Do a different class run. Are you done with normal mode? Do expert. Are you done with vanilla? Do a playthrough for every content mod there is in both normal and expert

>class run

it's so weird, I put like 2000 hours into terraria, and that's before all this touhou bullshit and so many items were added. I quit playing not long after hardmode was added and ruined the game

Seeing peoples perspective on it now feels like a 100% different experience, people are focused on the "gameplay" part of the game which is odd. It was always just a thrown in addition to the building to me.

thorium

starbound was my first and last early access purchase

i do not regret it because it was a valuable lesson

remember the drivable mechas and all the dank fossils you can find

hahahah just kidding, our artists are busy at work making sprite versions of themselves literally sitting in front of macbooks.

It's my world, it's a violation of game design principles to start modifying my world in a way that was never given a good solution even years later

you dont modify things that the player has set out to build, it just makes no sense at all

Terraria's kinda gay tbqh.

Ah, so autism is the answer. I guess that should've been obvious considering your primary concern in terraria is the building elements.

So is your mom

Yes tell me how you cope with autism?

the primary element of terraria is the building elements

are you oblivious to waht I just said? The game was completed before all the hardmode shit was added. That was just to draw out sales/grab a different audience.

I don't know, maybe I should try your method of spending 2000 hours building 2d structures and then complaining when the devs give you more options to build with just because you didn't ask for them.

So you can't cope? i see...tell me about your mother?

Bull fucking shit, each update has made the game better than it was before. The primary draw of terraria is not its building. Terraria is a game that's greater than the sum of its parts, the primary element of it and the reason most people play is the progression system, which blends building with exploration, mining, combat, etc. Its no just a single thing, its a combination of all these things that makes terraria good.

i honestly dont think you ever experienced the real feel of this game like i did

if you started out did commie blocks and zoomed off to fight and grind then you didnt really get terraria.

if you didnt play with friends on a server you 1000% didn't really get terraria

>the primary element of it and the reason most people play is the progression system

Maybe the reason most Yea Forums people play it, now. I guarantee you there are fucking hundreds of thousands of people who play terraria and just entered some kind of creative mode and never cared about the combat.

It's kind of laughable that you throw out the word "autistic" and then are only capable of seeing your own teenage touhou fan viewpoint.

Terraria was complete before the "progression" was ever added. Two eras of the game, of which you played the normie one.

I'm playing through thorium, what other mods/qol mods are worth looking at? I've heard calamity is dumb.

I've done entire playthroughs with friends multiple times, I'd say 3-4 for each major update. I even played during the leaked beta or alpha or whatever it was. Building is fun, but it is most certainly not all terraria is. Not by a long shot.

>building
>in Terraria
mate it's a stabby stabby cave exploration and boss killing game.

I honestly don't know what the fuck you mean by this. Touhou fan? What the fuck does that have to do with anything you nutcase?

Sounds like autism to me.

Attached: YourAFaggot.png (640x480, 14K)

i mean i guess for people with no friends it is :)

the idea of a game being about its action when you can just construct a special arena to trivialize any enemy is a joke

terraria is a straight up mechanical copy of minecraft in a 2d world that they built a game on top of. i remember playing a leaked beta before release, and it was pretty much just minecraft in 2d but with progression instead of item durability. there were more items to collect and more things to make and two bosses but the core gameplay loop was minecraft

obviously in the eight years since then they have diverged significantly

not an argument

Absolutely, it is grindy and has a slow start but once it picks up it gets really good.

Jokes on you then LMFAO!

This. The comfiest way to play Terraria for me, as someone who enjoys building the most, is to explore with friends, kill stuff, and gear up all while I collect various blocks and decoration, and when my pal(s) leave I'll just go about making our town on my own quietly, trying to make new shapes, trying out new ways to decorate and whatnot.
If I just spent all my time building I'd get bored out of my fucking mind though. I remember waiting for Hardmode, shit was maximum hype.

its bretty gud

Attached: Ok.jpg (170x213, 11K)

You're over simplifying it. It's not just about the combat specifically, it's about the exploration, the building, the combat, the progression, and how all these things blend together.

hardmode didn't ruin the game, it was the thing that made terraria stop being a minecraft clone.

calamity is mostly a standalone mod since top-tier calamity gear is so stupid the modder had to rebalance vanilla in order for it to work

buy it beat the game twice

then download calamity and do it again but better

that is the building part of the game

plantera literally requires you to construct a boss arena as part of its implicit mechanic because otherwise you wont be able to reach it as its rocketing around a jungle cavern. you can go whole hog and make a complex arena with health spawners and chests and shit but in the time you spent doing that you could have just beat the boss

welcome to a game that allows you creative freedom over approaching goals with multiple complex systems interacting. i think your autism prevents you from approaching it without min/maxing and forcing yourself to not have fun

Im guessing you intended that for me

I directly stated what the problem was already. You don't modify the player's world in a world building game

>hey look its explosive enemies directly outside your base you spent hundreds of hours on!

>hey look the world wil lchange and you cant fix it except building hellevators all over your map and ruining the map by making it seem artificial!

its garbage bad game design and ruined the game

>b-but they added 50 tiers of touhou shit

who cares? the game is about building with friends

Lol
proof your base retard
Haha
wood and glass do it

You idiots are replying to someone larping as an >le ebin originalfag but is also unironically using the term "normie", giving himself away
stop feeding his dumb ass

what explosive enemies? you're thinking of minecraft.

you can stop the hallow and corruption from spreading with sunflowers, purchasable from one of the first npcs you find in the game

>>hey look the world wil lchange and you cant fix it except building hellevators all over your map and ruining the map by making it seem artificial!
how can you be this bad at 2d minecraft. get good

>its explosive enemies
I'm almost certain there are no enemies that can blow up blocks, do you know what enemies you're referring to?

>hey look the world wil lchange and you cant fix it except building hellevators all over your map and ruining the map by making it seem artificial!

I'm pretty sure no worlds made before the updates change unless you beat the WoF, and that's a boss that wasn't even available before hard mode so it's hardly relevant.

>touhou shit
Still want to know what you mean by this.

The clowns stopped destroying shit real quick, and if you don't want an unnatural looking hellevator, just build an outpost with an underground bit or something like that
Now there's even a boss that slows down the whole thing and an (admittedly very expensive) tool that lets you buttfuck huge chunks of corruption, just come back once every 15 hours to clean up for 10 minutes and you're good

Clowns used to destroy tiles, yes. They don't know. Is that your entire argument?

>i-i was totally playing back then
oh no no no

I was here my dude, I was extremely fucking hype to see wings and a boss with 80k hp. I faked being sick to avoid going to class so I could play and my friend did the same thing.
You don't even need to trigger hardmode. I had a bunch of maps (lost to time sadly) where I didn't. You still get the benefits of having a ton more things to build with and possibilities in general, QoL changes, and now fishing and whatnot.

>Is that your entire argument?

How many times do I need to restate a simple statement for you to understand it?

You don't adversely, unannouncedly modify the player's world in a building game...the end

almost 100% of people on Yea Forums arent confident that they know game design well enough to just say outright developers made a bad call and did it wrong

this is an instance where they made the wrong call and did the wrong thing with their game. you don't care about it because you played the game for its action like some kind of child who missed the 16 bit era

>tfw retarded and can't build a house

Just revert the update you stupid fuck.

>You don't even need to trigger hardmode.

nobody who plays video games would ever just not do a thing that is to be done to unlock the entire game, not a solution

they made a bad design decision, the end

Why? Because you fight big bosses?

>hes THIS mad

Holy shit you're seething dude. I really didn't know you were this upset.

Even so, hardmode does not stop you from building in any way unless you're a gargantuan moron who doesn't feel like trying to build a guard tower or something like that that's big enough to act as a wall, or just keep on playing through the game, killing the cool bosses with the cool weapons and slowing down the hallow/corruption as they go with the various tools that are now available to do that
And guess what, you keep on expanding your village with new NPCs, and your improved mobility makes it easier to build even bigger stuff
It's an adventure game and it always has been, even in 1.0.6 and earlier if you didn't feel the thrill of going around the world, reaching hell, the dungeon or the floating islands, there was something wrong with you

this game has the coolest weapons in any game ive ever played

It's a flask i know.

Top tier game. Just avoid the ps4 version. Its buggy trash during some events like pumpkin moon

older people don't feel "thrills" when playing video games

it was fun and great but never thrilling.

???

zoomers don't feel "thrills" when playing video games

Well is it the fucking game's fault you've grown jaded enough that you can't enjoy things

You're not fooling anyone tiy

not being thrilled doesnt mean not enjoying things

you've grown jaded enough that you can't enjoy things

>some dumb fag in this thread acting as if things breaking your shit ruins the game

Just play the game in TEdit you colossal fucking retard, clearly you don't enjoy anything else about it

I remember being stupid when this first came out and thinking they were just cashing in on Minecraft at its peak.

PC version is the only one worth buying. but sometime within the next 10 years MAYBE, all currently supported versions of the game will have feature parity across all platforms. Even the mobile version. maybe

no, not whatsoever. you'll understand when you're older.

video games don't last forever. nothing does. though it kind of makes things worse when a hobby is transformed by becoming mainstream

ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah
holy shit literally kill yourself you stupid fucking retarded autist hahahahahhahaha

>video games don't last forever. nothing does. though it kind of makes things worse when a hobby is transformed by becoming mainstream
What the fuck does this have to do with anything? You're just rambling.

If you are serious about building and are not happy for shit like the Grand Design, Architect Gizmo Pack and summoning I don't think you have much of value to add to the conversation.

>you'll understand when you're older.
I already do you've grown jaded enough that you can't enjoy things

I still remember when I paid 1 EUR for it back when it launched, best euro ever spent.

You're how old, like 22?

You think you're going to enjoy video games the same way nearing 40? really?

Is it not obvious that I quit playing the game years ago when I stated that they ruined it

Yes? No? Maybe? I'm not sure what this has to do with having fun in terraria.

finding floating isladns was thrilling to you because you were 16

it was a pixel representation of a block of land floating in the sky to me because i was 30

For someone who has played over 600 hours of the game, i'd say its a good decision to get it.

I'm going to say something very honest...it's not that i'm jaded, but if you're the type of person who honestly experiences just these happy bright moments in life, you are just extremely lucky

Yeah you're just jaded.

Most people feel happiness when they're playing/watching/reading media they like. It's not that I'm lucky, you're just unlucky.

ey why dont you guys just butt fuck? nobody gives a shit about your gay argument over this

Holy got damn you're jaded

Yes the apaches are realy fun!

If you buy it, never ever play with others better than you. Completely ruined my experience while also enhancing it, but it’s not as worth unless you want to see the entire game content in a week.

Grab the lube user i don't want to walk for a week NOW!

>tfw no one makes art of her anymore

Great game. Played it so much that I'm burned out from ever playing it again, even with mods.

I pirated this game and it is shit. looks, sounds, and plays like it was made by a team of 13 year olds.
