Anyone excited for this beautiful gem?
When the f*ck is this even going to be released?
I don't like the artstyle but if the gameplay is as good as Terraria sign me in.
>>323782506
ITT: GAMES NEVER EVER RELEASED
>>323782506
Fuck no.
I'm only excited for Terraria 2.
Hopefully it is even better than Terraria.
>>323782804
>>323782925
>>323782930
It's going to be released sometime in March or late june. The artstyle is amazing, what I'd like to know is how are they going to top off the bosses? Lunatic and Moonlord will always be my favorites. Bur what can they do now?
The artstyle looks like a hot plate of garbage.
>>323783439
Ok, I think I expressed myself bad. The artstyle itself is OK, what I don't like are the animations. Those puppet-like animations always put me down. I think it's because they create a big disconection between the art and how you expect them to move and feels weird.
Still, I'm gonna give it a try.
As for bosses and shit, Moonlord will have some kind of relevancy, since zombies look like this.
>>323783603
Should've expected as much, you can't simply kill a god. Looks like Otherworld will have an actual Story besides the Lunatic cultists.
>>323783439
>all that money
>still can't hire a pixel artist that isn't garbage
eh...
>>323783770
Reminder that Otherworld is NOT Terraria 2, which is also being worked on.
>>323782506
Terraria looks waaaay better imo
>>323782506
It looks like it will be Starbound but not in perma early access so probably.
>>323783439
Looks like starbound...might not even bother, I dunno. currently very very content just playing Terraria vanilla
>Terraria crew updated their main game with more content and will release a sequel that does Starbound better than what Starbound wanted to be
>tfw Chucklefucks will probly still be on their sixth combat rework by then
>>323782506
That logo looks horrible. Why haven't they changed it yet?
>Terraria 1 with tons of huge updates completed
>Terraria spin off coming out soon
>Terraria 2 already in development
>Starbound still in early access
>There are people on /v/ who spent money on Starbound
>>323784683
A friend managed to shill this game to me right before Steam refunds were a thing. Refunded that trash the moment I could and went back to Terraria.
May that shit burn for all eternity.
>>323784683
damn it /v/ stop reminding me that i spent money on this piece of shit and cant refund it anymore
>>323784683
>>323784480
OP here, unfortunately I was one of many who bought this bullshit...not realizing only ONE guy Tiy was a severe from Terraria...and he only worked on the pixle artwork. The entire game is a fucking joke, why craft your own ammunition when you can wait for this retarded stamina recharge. They should have just ripped assets out of Terraria to make it somewhat kinda like a fucking good game. Real shame, the lore is pretty interesting.
>>323784683
fuck you, it still hurts.
>>323782506
Still don't get it. Is it just Terraria with terraforming?
I hope we get a new issue of "The Art of Touching a Woman" as well.
Terraria server when?
>>323784683
I paid 9.99 for starbound and almost immediately returned it.
>>323784683
>it'll be out in 2013 no matter what!
>it's 2016 and the game still feels like an early alpha
>they just went "fuck it" and un-overhauled combat, mobs are back to dealing contact damage
>development consists of occasionally taking one step forward but at least five steps back every 6 months
>their forum gets hacked, lose an entire year's worth of posts, information leaked
>there are still regulars in the communities who regularly and adamantly defend the game and how much fun their grandchildren will have playing it when it's finished
Fuck this piece of shit and Cube World. At least I learned my lesson about Early Access games.
>>323784683
>pirated it because I looked at reviews first
>I tried it for around an hour and a half and thought it was garbage
>deleted it
Feels great to not have gotten it. Terraria was fun as fuck though. Sadly though,after we beat the Moon Lord,me and my friends stopped playing until the new game comes out.
>>323783439
That's a horrendous screenshot.
>>323786531
Looks like shit....
>>323786491
Mystique being in a DC image triggers me
>playing Terraria for the first time
>On 3DS
I don't even know what you're supposed to do. It's literally just 2D minecraft. Is this shit just for autists too? Hipster autists too "good" for Minecraft?
>>323786702
That's some shit bait anon
Try harder.
1/10 made me reply.
>>323786607
looks cozy imo, although I hate how the characters look.
Still prefer the firsts style, but this ain't bad
>>323782506
Are they ever going to finish a game or are they going to make betas of more and more games and people are going to keep falling for it forever?
yes but i'll be real salty if i can't find a good server to play on
Just a reminder that this game is going to be more focused on Tower Defense mechanics, like a bad flash game, than exploration and crafting, like Terraria was.
Also Redigit didn't work on it at all, it was outsourced entirely to a shovelware company that handled the mobile port of Terraria (which was a trainwreck)
enjoy the quality
>>323786436
>At least I learned my lesson
and yet look at all these people leaping headlong into Otherworld without even realizing what a steaming pile it'll be
if you latch onto this just to prove starbound wrong you really haven't learned anything
>>323786975
Because Otherworld is an actual secured IP by competent developers you fucking mong, no SJW or redone combat update bullshit.
>>323786436
>cubeworld
now that.
that was a tragedy
>>323786758
I'm 100% serious.
I just downloaded it because I was a little fatigued from 140+ hours in MHX.
Its straight up Minecraft on a 2D plane. Can you explain the difference? Or what's the appeal?
>>323787138
>an actual secured IP by competent developers
Are you genuinely calling Engine Software "competent developers" or did you just not pay attention to the part where Redigit is not making this game
>>323784480
>chucklefuck finally gets on their feet after the devestation that TOW unleashes
>become more competent at actually making games instead of just ideas
>release updates almost every other month, building up Starbound to be an actual game
>as the game nears completion, chucklefish and its fans look towards a bright future for Starbound
>Terraria 2 is released
It seems like minecraft I know,but this game is more focused on combat. There are guns,lasers,swords,grappling hooks,ect. You can summon bosses and kill them to make better armor. It can be fun but it isnt for every one.
>>323787329
Despite what that guy is going to tell you, this is more or less what it is.
Terraria did do some things right for the 2D aspects but unfortunately some of their choices have been extremely poor. The original game was released obfuscated, had absolutely shit netcode and was garbage, it's basically more or less MC moved to 2D but they gave it a bit more of a story, and set the pace for 2D games like it.
Starbound is good but too many furries in the community to not just play only with friends.
>>323787319
Seriously, that and castle story.
I bought both, and my tears are never ending.
>>323787329
Actual content to the point of endgame, Terraria is way more action oriented with actual exploring to advance further in the game.
If it was only Minecraft for 2D then the only thing to do would be to build houses for your NPCs, while most people just build a commie block for NPCs and a boss coliseum for when shit gets real
>>323787329
>Its straight up Minecraft on a 2D plane. Can you explain the difference? Or what's the appeal?
Mostly in the sense of combat focus and progression. You fight your way through biomes with specific enemy sets, move to new resource and crafting trees, defeat bosses, progress to higher tier areas and higher tier weapons/armor. As you go, additional equipment and accessories can unlock new abilities for ease of movement and increased power.
The freebuilding portion and maybe the first hour or so are pretty minecraftlike, but the ultimate goal of the game is to grow in power and defeat stronger and stronger enemies to get better accessories/equipment and so on. Minecraft doesn't really have much in the way of power growth (once you hit diamond, that's pretty much it, and you can do that within the first five minutes) and there's no real purpose to fight either of the bosses. Terraria is about progress while Minecraft's more "do whatever"
I'm not trying to tell you Terraria is good or that you have to like it, just, as you asked, the main difference between it and MC
personally I always preferred building in Terraria because there's a lot more block types and some actual decorative options (somehow MC still doesn't even have furniture) and it's easier for me to make something look cool in 2D than in 3D
>>323786702
>>323787329
Minecraft is terribly lacking content-wise. The game was originally made as a sandbox but the devs decided to turn it into an RPG and half-assed the transition.
There's no point to the game but building. Terraria has actual progression, even if it just power creeps like hell after Wall of Flesh.
>>323783439
FINALLY I'll get my turrets for some dope base defense.
First thing I'll do is creating a huge flying fortress.
>>323787998
Sounds pretty good. Though the 3DS version is an old version I think. 1.2 maybe? I don't know if it has any of that good shit
>>323784683
Thanks for reminding me.
>>323786084
terraria with different graphics and art direction, different setting, story mode, base defense with turrets and different focus.
>>323782506
>terraria HQ
why not just change the graphics of the first terraria and add quests and stuff?
why I see all the content they made for free, I might give a go
>>323782506
is that a terraria expansion/update or another almost scam like starbound?
>>323783439
Personally I absolutely hate the art style
Terraria looks better
>>323787138
I thought the same thing about payday 2, look where it went. I don't even buy games before pirating them anymore, fuck this industry.
>>323788641
>>323788648
>is that a terraria expansion/update or another almost scam like starbound?
Neither. It's a Terraria spinoff made by not-Redigit that takes out the fun exploration and replaces it with Tower Defense.
He contracted it out entirely to a third party.
Don't expect quality.
>>323788614
Emphasis on the story because it seems to focus on even more about the Corruption/Crimson and the eldritch god moonlord because>>323783603
>>323788648
It's a new game, but not Terraria 2.
>>323788736
Oh hey someone with the same outlook as me.
I've been pretty much doing this for years, pirate. If it has good gameplay and isn't pushing some huge change in the industry that will hurt us->buy.
>>323788452
It does, though it will lack the final bosses and some pretty fun items/equipment/decorations/etc.
>>323782506
No, i didn't even killed Wall of Flesh
>>323788765
so it could be fun somehow
well if it's a nice game, I might take it
>>323788802
terraria 2?
>>323788452
1.2 has most of the stuff but it is lacking support for the summoner play style, the underground desert biome, the medusa caves, the aliens and the mod support.
>>323788959
>so it could be fun somehow
It could be
but don't hold your breath
and definitely don't preorder
>>323789004
>and the mod support.
1.3 added no tangible mod support
>>323787703
I never bought cubeworld but I was hyped. never heard of castle story.
>>323789101
I don't mean 1.3 I mean the versions of the game that aren't on pc don't have mod support. Basically I'm saying you are missing a lot of content if you play anything except the pc version.
>>323789524
I guess? There's basically zero good mods though. Maybe Grox's? Even then it's iffy.
>>323789004
Summoner is still shit in 1.3 though, at least on expert summons simply do not do enough damage at all, and it's ridiculous that you have to specifically equip trinkets to even come close to the damage of a range weapon while losing a lot of armor and mobility as a trade-off.
Basically, don't do summons, they fucking suck for anything but farming afk.
>>323789549
Tremor Remastered for new content, imkSushi's crafting recipe mod to avoid relying on rng drops, quality of life/ tree of life for more accesory combinations, max stack + so you aren't restricted by 99 item stack limits and summoner's association makes playing a summoner worth doing,
>>323783439
>Moonlord
>Good boss
I love terraria but Moonlord was such a shitty boss.
>>323790037
thanks for the recommendations
I know what I'm doing tomorrow
>>323790061
I thought the Pumpkin Moon was the shittiest and least fun thing in Terraria until the Frost Moon
that reigned until the Moonlord, which remains the worst fucking thing in the gameThe Towers are kind of cool and the alien invasion is at least an invasion and not a moon eventmoon events were a mistake
>>323789905
>not synchro summoning STARDUST DRAGON
nigga you kill the mechanical worm in 0.4 seconds
>>323789524
That should be a given since it happens in pretty much every other console game.
>>323789268
It was hype around the same time, and the creator actually showed progress for some time, but similar to wollay just disappeared.
For wollay we know why. He couldn't fix the nvidia issue so he gave up instead of spending some of that fat dosh he jewed out of people.
>>323790387
It really doesn't. Terraria is an extreme exception where there are gorillion different version each with exclusive content.
This is the terraria thread right?
How do I deal with the underworld in Expert? I have some good shit to deal with it and 400 hp but Demons keep fucking me up while I try to get hellstone and a WoF bridge going
>>323783439
It reminds me too much of Starbound desu. I think it's still too early to get hyped.
>>323784683
Why did you have to remind me.
>>323790687
IIRC there are spawn limits in the game.
So kill everything that isn't a lava slime and trap them.
Or just make a lot of barriers of some kind to block the demon's shots.
>>323790687
Demon scythes can't clip through walls so go from house to house mining all the hellstone. From there you only have to watch out for imps, skele worms and lava.
>>323782506
It's not even Terraria 2 and it'll still be the final nail in Starbound's coffin. Consider me sold!
>>323783439
wait, this year?
dear god don't let it be early access
>>323784683
DUDE PIXEL ART LMAO
Can these faggots just fucking finish a game for once in their miserable god damn lives
I learned my lesson with Starbound, they're not getting another cent out of me
>>323791061
The good thing about pixel art is that it never gets old.
>>323787319
>>323787703
Wollay has been updating his Twitter a lot recently. He's still working on the game, believe it or not.
>>323790883
I'll try to get someone to do this while I make the bridge
>>323790903
I did this but the moment my obsidian pot was over I needed to go somewhere else for it
>>323790975
what are you saying
starbound was nothing but a marketing stunt in terraria's favor
>>323791131
I'll take my chances with not believing.
>>323791068
Terraria is finished, the moonlord was the final boss.
>>323786084
it better be
>>323791162
That was reds final update, meaning they'll still work on the game, maybe add new events or quests nut yes Moonlord is the final boss, and he's a damn good one. Wonder what they can do to top it off.
>>323791068
What? Terraria was already finished with the 1.0 version, everything else is extra content.
>>323784683
I have it, played with my brother and it was fun all around. Just sitting in my library now.I like the races and the music though.
>>323787319
Also this. Pirated the alpha and played again with my bro, such a comfy game it hurts. Goddamn wollay.
>>323784683
I'm really not sure why you guys have the need to choose a side.
Terraria had a fucking terrible start and has been up and down for years, the shit with Blue, the original release was a fucking mess.
Terraria also had several year long drops, many times it had large issues.
That said, yes Starbound is definitely not at an amazing place, the changes have meant that people that spent time on really great mods early aren't properly supported anymore and people don't care to make any because more changes will come to kill them until it's out of EA and stable. Since the game relies on mods this is a problem, but the mods also give it many more hours of fun.
>>323791131
Yes, yes and so does the Topia Online game designer. Also keep in mind he did this same shit a year/year in a half ago and said we'd get an update, still waiting. He never got around the nVidia error and is still sitting in.
>>323791257
How someone can like moon lord is beyond me.
>>323791068
You must be talking about Chucklefuck. Terraria has been finished and flourishing so much that it branched off into mobile, console and even into Nintendo.
>>323784683
Starbound is making a lot of improvements lately though, and is expected to release in a few months;). Even though Terraria is far superior, I've easily gotten my money's worth out of Starbound. No regrets here
>>323791131
>That autist has been working on the game for TWO YEARS without applying a single update
Jesus christ, why would he do this? No one is expecting a finished game right off the bat, so why doesn't he just trickle in content as it is ready instead of, evidently, trying to push out the whole game in one go?
>>323791363
>improvements
>undoing the actual improvements is improvement
>changing the sticky-note that says "beta" to "release" even though the product is clearly still an alpha
Get some standards, anon.
>>323791345
Are you genuinely retarded? Moonlord is suppose to be the fucking endgame eldritch god. "Impending doom approaches" he's massive, hits like a fucking truck and is menacing enough he sucks the backround and leaves it into darkness. It's the final fight, you and a god, everything you achive and worked on could be incinerated if you don't win. It's you or him, thank god I fought him with my caster.
>>323790687
Craft some Obsidian Potions and mine Hellstone far away from the surface; you'll only have to worry about Bone Serpents that way.
>>323791578
I enjoy having no standards. It means I can enjoy more games
>>323791601
>mfw cheesing him with auto pause, magic mirror and nurse on spawn
Nerf that Red.
>>323784683
>tfw wasted my secret santa on starbound
>>323791601
Excusing shitty fight design with "muh Eldritch god" is just plain stupid.
>>323791363
Nice damage control family, I wish I was as good as you at that.
>>323791784
I'm pretty sure all his attacks can be avoided if you're good enough to do it.
>>323791784
Shitty how? You need to focus on popping the eyes? Dodge his laser attack and eye missIles? The fight was pretty great. You probably play as a shit eating fighter and you suck at it. Git gud.
>>323787392
i'm sure they're glad not to be making shovelware anymore.
>>323791738
How about getting rid of those AFK farms? I think the devs felt a bit cheated that Moonlord has an AFK farm. They should make a rage mode for him if you stand still for too long and he hits a dungeon guardian style kill shot.
>>323792180
That has nothing to do with afk farming though.
>>323791784
>playing melee
>complaining that you're dying
play a ranger or fuck off
>>323792253
Still technically 'cheesing' a boss, I hate that. Make strategies and fight like a man instead of this farming bullshit. The only time I'd see this as a good thing is during events to get more pumpkings or frost queens.
>>323791363
>Starbound is making a lot of improvements lately though,
I have read this sentence a thousand times and the game never gets better or released.
>>323792362
The only way he could stop that kind of cheese is making him despawn upon teleporting but it would go against the whole concept.
>>323792492
Or make it where you Teleport he comes with you and wipes you and the rest of your NPC's in an ultimate rage-mode, don't fuck with Moonlord.
>>323792002
>>323792085
The boss is just overly shitty design especially on hard mode.
>>323792261
The best thing about that statement is that Yo-Yo is melee because they never bothered fixing melee and just made it ranged with melee damage.
>>323792180
Should've designed the boss better then.
>>323792625
Like other anon said, play ranger or or fuck off you Melee bitch.
>>323792706
They did but assholes STILL find methods to AFK farm them, and for moonlord they obviously had way too much time on their hands to pull that off, really wish they made that berserk rage mode if you stand still for too long.
>>323792603
Yeah that would be pretty savage.
>>323791601
>ignores that it's a bad bossfight gameplay/mechanics wise
"He's a fucking god that eats the sky!!!"
>>323792854
>Like other anon said, play ranger or or fuck off you Melee bitch.
Are you illiterate?
>The best thing about that statement is that Yo-Yo is melee because they never bothered fixing melee and just made it ranged with melee damage.
Melee was literally just ranged with melee damage because they never bothered actually fixing melee. I played with yo-yos a lot.
I doubt you played on hard mode because that was just fucking shit when you'd die in 2-3 hits and then you'd have to go through the whole fucking summoning process AGAIN.
It's not good design in any fucking way.
>They did but assholes STILL find methods to AFK farm them
Moon lord was not good design, and really calling people "assholes" for finding ways to afk farm bosses when it doesn't affect you? How anally devastated are you exactly?
>>323784683
Starbound was literally the first game I bought on Steam. Fuck, I created my Steam account just to buy that shit. Three years ago I was a retarded furfag.
>>323792968
Bad mechanic how? All you gotta do is attack 4 nodes and dodge attacks, are you too retarded and that bad to do such a fight?
>>323793190
Once fur forever fur, friend.
>>323793096
You can dodge all of moon lord's stuff if you fly around in circles and use the teleport rod (forget the name) to teleport past his sweeping laser attack when he uses it.
The stuff leading up to the moon lord is way worse design than the boss himself, the solar pillar is dumb as hell.
>>323786778
>hates how it looks
>it ain't bad
It's hilarious how Terraria hasmonopolized its own market by being so good that no one else can compete with it.
>>323793409
>one specific thing vs an overall opinion
Just blow in from stupid town?
>>323793409
He's just complaining about the character's sprite, not the whole art style.
>>323793349
As far as I remember, the teleport rod was 0.000000000000000000001% drop item. On hard mode he hit too much and had way way way too much health.
Hard mode was shitty to begin with but Moon Lord took the cake on being way too shitty.
>>323793281
>All you have to do is some simple shit
No, you fucking idiot when I say bad gameplay I don't mean "It's too hard" I mean it's so fucking simple anyone could do it therefore it's not fun at all, it didn't focus on any divergent gameplay, it didn't bring anything special or new to the table, it was generic 2D floating big boss idea with no neato mechanics.
Favorite boss(es) and biome(s) /v/?
mine's Plantera and Duke Fishron with the Crimson and the Underground Jungle as my fave biomes
>>323794350
fuck the underground jungle desu, expert Hornets and spiked slimes are absolutely retarded
>>323794518
personally that's why I like it, Underground Jungle always kicked my shit in more than the Underworld at times when I first started playing, and still continued this tradition into Expert mode.
>>323787392
> redigit is a decent developer
So I'll let you guys on a little secret.
Before the latter updates a buddy I had wanted to mod terraria. To that end, he decompiled it.
The code he found was fucking awful.
Redigit didn't bother to reference same entities multiple times and instead just made new ones over and over, netcode was fucked, PvP damage calculation literally broken (something terraria players sould be very familiar with), block code was messy and horribly unoptimized.
All of it was super easy to fix if you're even slightly competent.
>>323795416
Why didn't he sent a mail to Red with the code fixes then?
And doesn't decompilation just give you the assembly code?
>>323795416
You can find the original code unobfscated because he released it that way.
Redigit and Blue were fucking idiots, but they got it done good enough I suppose.
The original code used the inferior net library and people literally told them "you're doing it wrong use X" so they did, took them a week. Before that my friend just actually changed it himself and we played with the better netcode because it was that simple.
Also he had tons of unoptimized shit, and I wouldn't be surprised if that's still the case.
Honestly one of the funniest things about indie games is when they do this and people eat it up "It runs so good on my machine" because it's simple shit you fucking goober, the actual code itself is terrible.
>>323795562
....
Hah.
That's some funny shit.
>>323795818
Which one?
>>323795738
Point is, not having Redigit on your dev team is probably a GOOD thing.
