TOP motherfucking KEK dude my GOD, I DO NOT believe your COMMENT dude. That is just WAY too FUNNY DUDE omg.
Any item that says "material" can be used to make shit. Take every new material you find to the guide to find out what you can make with it. Don't start by digging straight down - explore to the left and right and chances are you will find some naturally formed caves to explore. For the love of god, dont start out on expert mode with a medium/hardcore character - save that shit for when you know what you are doing.

A great adventure game that also lets you make beautiful houses if you have the patience and creativity. Don't listen to this faggot >>342074518 and do not play on expert for you first playthrough. All you need to know is that NPCs will only come if there's a valid house available for them, and they're really important for your progression. Ask the guide what you can do with literally everything you get
>>342075002
Nice shit post, bro.
I'm not going to read a single line from any wiki or help source, fuck that. if I can't just turn on a game and play it, I'm out.
3DS version good enough? I want to play it while laying on bed.
>>342074269
Imagine minecraft that focused on one direction (Adventure) rather than split into three different forms of shit gameplay that were never finished, with superior combat system and loot.
>>342075129
thank you for noticing me senpai
I have noticed you have also replied without contributing anything of value to this thread, shall we have a minor flame war where we call eachother fagets until this thread hits the bump limit and dies out?
Talk to the guide, explore, make houses for NPCs, use the guide for crafting, have fun!
>>342074269
Here's some valuable advice.
Cultivate Daybloom as soon as possible. See those little yellow flowers that maybe drop seeds when they flower during the day?
They make some really useful potions, like regeneration and ironskin.
At the earliest opportunity, set up clay pots for your daybloom seeds, and periodically harvest.
The more pots the better.
There are seven kinds of herbs in all with different blooming conditions, all have their uses but only will be far more useful than others depending on your needs.

Yeah, I only play good games like Planet Centauri.
>>342074269
Don't be one of those autists that build commieblock house styles. You wont believe how many Terraria players miss a great part of the game. There's no excuse to keep your worlds looking like shit and not comfy as fuck.
>>342075942
Dryad/Mechanic all the way. Cutest in that drawing, best looking sprites, best personalities.
I also have a thing for green hair, andnudists/exhibitionism.
>>342075235
Terrible. Probably the worst version of the game out there.
Get PC version if you can.
>>342076281

Good man
They're both pretty cute but I hate how they turn into insufferable cunts during a bloodmoon.

Terraria isn't the sort of game you play in bed.
It's the sort of game you play at your desk with a few friends until the sun comes up.
>>342075235
1.0.3 just released, goldfish won't stack, and there's more bugs being introduced than being fixed
505 fucking sucks, stick with the PC version
the first playthrough of this game is fantastic. it's crazy how long the progression is, theres just so much to do
I recommend you play your character on a large map and stay on this map. you will never run out of resources this way

It's also the rype of game you put holes in your walls for not getting that fucking lucky coin after doing the Pirate invadion six motherfucking times in a row. Or when Plantera manages to clip you right when it was on that 1000 health mark.
>>342075165
You don't need to, but you will have to talk to the guide a lot and might miss out on seriously useful phat loot if you don't explore. You will also die repeatedly.
That may change when you change the world. Oh lordy it's going to be a terrible night.

That's the Stylist. She's pretty bland to be honest familia.

M8 Terraria is the light of indie gaming that makes all of the early access and SJW shit worth it.
Spending an entire day gaming with my buddies, building minecarts and killing bosses, shittalking the dumbass who died and changing his gravestone to read he died of a ruptured anus, setting TNT traps along a path I know he's gonna walk,building the fanciest house and other buildings, it's the only time in the last 6 years I've truly felt the same way I did when I was gaming as a kid.
>>342077165
Tell me about it. How do warrior classes endure the pain? Literally fucking unbeatable until I got the Spooky scythe and Terra blade along with the cheesing teleporter tunnel.
>>342077316
Nah mate, Steampunker, Mechanic and Dryad are the real Bae's.
>>342074269
A good, honest, fun time. Even more so if you get a friend or two to join you. Be creative and try to never stop progressing, or else you settle with what you have and don't want to keep exploring.
>>342076414
Really? i have over 100 hours in this game and never bothered talking to either during one.
this is obviously a period joke right?
It's one of those games where finding everything out on your own is nigh impossible, but reading on the internet makes you not want to bother.
>>342077153
Think most of these Terraria clones are shit, Never falling for these memes after Starbound ever again. Look Forward to Otherworld and Terraria 2. Nothing else can compete no matter how pretty the sprites or crop animations are.

Pretty much. Everyone turns to assholes during thr Bloodmoon, but female NPC's besides Strampunker and Party girl is really bad. My sweet waifu's dryad and Mechanic turn to snappy bitches that I wanted to throw out into the pack of Blood zombies.

Shame on you!

What Minecraft should of been, and everything more beyond that.
A genuinely fun sandbox game that takes after a craze but knows how best to separate content between its differing sides, so neither either lacks and, in fact, compliments one another in a beautifully simplistic fashion that can be expanded upon freely by the player if they so wish.
Really, I might be saying a whole lot more than this game should be getting, but in all honesty, for how cheap it is as well as how much shit you're getting for that price, it's a fucking solid deal.
Don't worry about the difficulty of Expert until you know what you're doing, always go for your characters dropping coins on death (anything above that is faggotry tier, save for Hardcore, which is definitely fun), take shit to the Guide and talk with him about all the stuff that you can make, because it's a confusing, but very well thought out bunch.
And ultimately,prepare to have some fucking fun, shitbag

You don't need to find everything though. No is likely going to know that Chaos Elementals have a super low chance to drop one of the most useful items in the game or that the ocean has a secret boss, but that isn't needed to progress through the game.
From start to Moonlord nothing in Terraria is cryptic in order to advance. The guide gives you all you need to advance.
>>342077153
Honest answer? It's worse. The rpg mechanics are pretty standard, the best innovation it has is being able to toggle digging 2x2, 3x3, etc size blocks at once. Things like Planet Centauri try to do more things different like taming and becoming creatures, Crea is a shallow clone with skills and rpg mechanics that feel tacked on

I quite like to glitch into the Lihzahrd temple before fighting Plantera, Lets you get Solar Tablets so you can do the Solar Eclipse at a whim and get the Death Sickle and Terra Blade faster.
>>342077974
The amount it's advanced is amazing.
I still remember 1.1 when you had to jump up individual blocks and it ended with the Mech bosses.
Played through it fully from start to finish at least once per big patch, I remember waiting for 1.3 being a fucking nightmare. At least that HERO stream took the edge off, never laughed so hard.
>>342076913
Have some side booty with your main dish as well.
>>342075079
>and do not play on expert for you first playthrough.
NO
Start with expert.
I wish I was in your shoes and had the oportunity to play the game fresh on expert mode, it is the definitive way to play the game.
Just don't play medium or softcore, unless you're planning on doing a gimmick run with objectives or something, and even then, do that after you've played the game once.
>>342074269
Best weapons of the game are only found from killing the strongest creatures of the game
That sword/gun/wand you like is only good for a particular part of the game and it will never be relevant later on and remains stagnant
Mining is slow and boring early game but once a drill is picked up everything becomes tedious and boring as every prefab becomes chest full of low level items you cannot use
Structure building is fun and interesting, however prefabs are simple, bland and easily repeated
Grinding is tedious and an artificial game duration booster
Pirate this game it's shit and red doesn't give a fuck about it
>>342078272
1.2 was a fucking godsend for the game. 1.3 was great but I wish it had more than just Pillars and Moonlord when it comes for progression, not to mention that the last tiered armor have no use since at that point you are already done with the game.
I hope 1.3.3 does something like Duke Fishron as an extra boss again so we can use the new equipment. Maybe finally an alternative for the Hallow.
>>342078385
>Pirate this game it's shit and red doesn't give a fuck about it
Red has a funny way of not giving a shit about the game by constant content updates.
>>342078257
I was quite lucky during my first warrior playthrough on expert mode.
Was just a quarter way through my eclipse and got a mooncharm and Spooky Scythe. Kept getting murdered because my armor was only Orchalcum but near the end I finally beat a mothra and it drops a hero sword. Was the best fucking event of my life.
>>342078385
>red doesn't give a fuck about it
Now you've fucking done it
>>342078320
>Wanting new players to play hardcore
Ayy.
Medium and Soft are fine, but new players should definitely play Soft.
Expert is definitely the way to go even for new players if they are going in as a party, Normal is too fucking easy when playing with friends.
>>342074269

>NPC talking about some old man at a dungeon? Wait a minute, I remember that/Oh, I better go find that
>That dungeon sure was cool, I wonder what lies down at the bottom of the world
Lather, rinse, repeat.
The best part is that everything in the world can be discovered just by running and mining around. I found out about the eye just because I found the Suspicious Looking Eye in a chest andgot my ass handed to me by summoning that because I was admittedly curious.
Everything's accessible as shit, aside from the rare shit that's meant to make a single run more unique, man. I never had a single problem following the flow of Terraria, since that shit really does it well.
>>342078272
It's so fucking weird how much of a gigantic gap between updates utterly changed the game and turned it on its head, so to speak.
It was a wild and crazy ride that I enjoyed every fucking minute of, and I honestly hope that Terraria 2/Overworld is just as good as this game because goddamn was it a way to kill the time.

1.3 was nice for fine tuning I thought. Expert mode was a lot of fun, and it made the playthrough more eventful.
That and I loved grinding Hardmode Mimics for that sexy Daedalus. What a weapon.
>>342078585
I meant to say don't play medium or hardcore, unless you're doing a gimmick run.
I mistyped, good catch.

>>342078385
>Best weapons of the game are only found from killing the strongest creatures of the game
Blatant lie, especially with the shit you can find while fishing and else.
>That sword/gun/wand you like is only good for a particular part of the game and it will never be relevant later on and remains stagnant
True but there is always a bunch of new shit to try so it isn't that much of a problem. I wish the game had an upgrade system ala Dark Souls though.
>Mining is slow and boring early game but once a drill is picked up everything becomes tedious and boring as every prefab becomes chest full of low level items you cannot use
Mining isn't needed most of the time, caves are very natural and you can find a bunch of shit with Minecarts. If you know what you're doing the only ore you will need to mine is Clorophyte, and that's shit easy to find.
>Structure building is fun and interesting, however prefabs are simple, bland and easily repeated
True, pyramids were a fucking disappointment.
>Grinding is tedious and an artificial game duration booster
You don't need to grind to progress through the game though. It definitely needs some sort of luck mechanic to increase item find and shit but it isn't detrimental to the game unless you really need stuff like the Anhk charm or the RoD.
>>342078948
Oh yeah, those were definitely great additions, haven't touched Normal mode since. Just wasn't as excellent as 1.2
>>342078659
You know looking back I remember how all of us ised to be mixed armored svrubs with sulver bows shooting at giant eyeballs to shaping up into hardened warriors, rangers and maves fighting aliens, monsters, machines and gods. Holy crap it really WAS a wild ride...and I can't wait to experiemce it all again with Terraria Otherworld and Terraria 2!
>>342079083
Upgrade system would be much appreciated in new Terraria installments. So many cool weapons and spells I didn't wanna give up because they didn't cut the damage quota.
its an okay game. play with dedicated friends. go in blind, with whatever settings.
have fun
>>342079302
>when you beat the Wall of Flesh for the first time and thought you were hot shit and went back up to your house to celebrate
That night I went mining was probably the biggest punch in the balls ever, but holy fuck was it incredible to experience everything just change out of the fucking blue.
>kill Lunatic Cultist and try to go off to find the Martians for the Lunar Event
>get that notification and then immediately see everything fucking change
If there's one thing Terraria's god-like at doing, its making you know good and fucking well that shit's going down.
I want more NPCs, like town controls, ability to assign houses in your town for refugees who move in, with different requirements, like if it's a family with kids, they need to have enough rooms and stuff like that.
I like the rescuing NPC aspect of the base game, and I wish there was more ways to bring the world to life like that.
>>342079756
>Mfw you enjoy the lunar event backrounds and want them to stay?
Fucking why? Stardust and Nebula backround was phenominal.
I understand it's only for the event but I just wish there's an option to keep the backrounds. Hoping they do more of that in future terraria installments.
>>342079761
Maybe in five years, Starbound will be playable.

I hate this idea
I want more shit to explore, like a new Dungeon or Temple for end-game players
>>342079957
>I just wish there's an option to keep the backrounds
There already is
>>342079961
Fuck no, I gave Starbound a chance, they need to make it the best game ever made for me to ever get back to that.
Starbound, even with it's npcs feels even more lifeless than Terraria.
>>342079957
There is dude.
Craft 15 fragments into a pillar, place it and enjoy permanent stellar backgrounds.
>>342079957
You can already do that by making the pillar items
>>342080028
I want Expert mode Desert to have more in it other then HELL
>>342075002
Starbound had better gameplay and more content like day 3.
>>342080028
Your idea is easier to implement in a mod than my idea, if the game had modding support, which Terraria 2 hopefully will have, then you'll have content to your hearts content.
I just want stuff to do when I am not exploring and fighting ancient evils, and I also want challenging end-game content to go with.
>>342079761
What'd be nice for NPC's s if they give some dn recognition fo your acomplishments. The only one that kinda does this is the Mercheant. You kill Skeletron and Wall of flesh and you hear absolutely nothing from the ungrateful people squatting in your house.
>>342079961
Starbound...not even once.

Really? How the fuck have I not heard of this? Plrase do tell.

>>342080491
Terraria setting trumps Starbound story all day every day.
Half of the fun is filling the blanks.
>>342080056
Eh, the idea of Terraria with throwaway worlds really appealed to me.
The fact that they did nothing of merit with the concept, and made the rest of the game shit too wasn't a nice pill to swallow.
I think they're updating it to version 1.00 soon, I'll give it a try then.
But seriously, why the fuck wouldn't you make terrain malleable by enemies if you have throwaway planets? I'm not saying on each planet, but having it so enemies could blow up the ground you stand on would really improve shit, and it's not possible with Terraria because it would fuck your world up.
So what are the core differences between Terraria Otherworld and Terraria 2?
Otherworld just looks like another terraria with improved graphics.
>>342080626
>But seriously, why the fuck wouldn't you make terrain malleable by enemies if you have throwaway planets? I'm not saying on each planet, but having it so enemies could blow up the ground you stand on would really improve shit, and it's not possible with Terraria because it would fuck your world up.
That would actually be rather interesting.
Imagine if a boss like destroyer actually burrowed tunnels.
>>342079957
You can craft things that make the background stay, kind of like the water fountains the Witch Doctor sells.
>>342080707
Otherworld is an alternate universe to Terraria and has more tower defense gameplay features.
>>342080707
The problem Terraria has, and has had from the very beginning, is that it was coded in a horrible hateful miserable ass framework, which limits fucking everything, If you can think of a problem the game has or has had it's because of Microsoft XNA, which isn't even supported anymore. Also, all the fixes to these problems are just workaround on that horrid limiter, which means the game will never ever run right properly, no matter what.
The idea for otherworld was to make terraria with programming language that didn't suck balls, but that might've changed along the way.
Terraria 2 is a sequel, also with a proper game engine.
>>342074269
>That feeling rushing Moonlord with your mates
>>342081089
Apparently it was a fucking miracle they managed to implement controller support in the first place, let alone make it better than the controls in the console versions.
>>342081463
>That feeling finding your first golden chest
>>342081089
So why continue updating it with all this nice shit if it's intended to be replaced by Other World?
>>342081627
seperate dev teams or side project stuff probably
>>342081627
>if it's intended to be replaced by Other World?
It's not. Otherworld will be a spinoff and I expect a game with half the content of the current Terraria.
>>342081627
Original team never specified that Red's update was Terraria's last update...it was nust Red's last update so he can move on to work with Terraria 2.
>>342082209
They outright stated that they hired people to keep working on Terraria after 1.3 got done.
>>342074821
go to bed
>>342082276
Really? Hmm...well what else the hell can they be expected to release? What can seriously top off Moonlord or the Celestial event?
>>342081627
Otherworld is a spinoff, and further Terraria updates are in the hands of b-team, while Red focuses on Terraria 2.
>>342082602
Well they said that they are working for content for the Underground Desert (which is shit at the moment) but its patch was split in two so it could come out faster.
1.3.3 will be UD stuff, we still don't know what 1.3.2 is. People are speculating that it is going to be a side event that they mentioned a while back.
>>342082602
I hope more bosses per tiering.
Like each armor set should have a bunch of alternate bosses so you feel like you can hold on to your sets longer before moving on.
feels like a waste to include shit like unique armor set mechanics (Chrlophyte crystal, meteor set making space gun use no mana, ect.) and have them replaced every boss fight.

>>342083753
>Not having a base entrance either
>>342083840
To be fair, you can play alone, but if you are new to the game, you are going to get your shit stomped by hard mode bosses.
>>342083840
play with /v/
>>342083906
Obviously that wasn't my first base, my main base was an igloo village and then a marble church. My cell-tower was designed to be a teleportion hub that housed my mechanicla themed npcs.
If you want some sort of realism answer for a lack of bottom entrance, they have teleporters, obviously.
>>342083978
Anyone who has trouble with Eater of Worlds, Brain and Eye of Cthulhu and Skeletron even on Expert mode should stip playing anyway.
>>342084145
Yea m8, surely you are so good you didn't even need to prepare a arena, stock up on buff potions, and use specific weapons to kill them that you only knew about because you died to shit a bunch of times.
need someone to play with
id/nazashi3/
no standards
>>342084329
Those were my 1.0 years but when you adapt to terraria the pre-hardmode bosses should be a breeze. Their attack patterns arent even hard to map...exept EoC's new zig zag charge. That can get a bit dicy.
>>342074269
You will just want to dig down and explore but then realize you can't because stuff will always kill you. Also that you need to collect bullshit for crafting and just a bunch of boring things you don't want to do at all. The 1 song and repetitive sound effects are also awful. You will put maybe 10-20 hours in and just stop playing because it's way too tedious and mind numbing.
Man, I really like Terraria and have played it off and on for years, but by and large I suck at it.
>can't kill the Wall, doesn't help that a bunch of fudgepacking demons keep spawning nearby and tossing extra shit at me
>can't build a house that doesn't look like shit
>not sure what I do or don't need to hang on to so I have chests full of shit that's probably junk
>trying badly and largely failing at making a house that doesn't get attacked outside of floating it(and when I do that I end up with a brick shitbox that looks even worse than my normal attempts which at least tend to have natural look due to being hobbit holes of opportunity)
My only two gripes are more or less cosmetic. I'd like it if surface water didn't become dark so quickly, and if vines didn't block light sources. Fuck it though, maybe tomorrow I'll scrounge the house chests in my worlds for supplies, start a new world, and try again.
>>342085170
I hope you know that you can show shit to the guide to see what it makes
If it says Material, it can be used for something probably useful and you can always find out what
>>342074890
I always start digging straight down 40-60 blocks before hell.
On top of the pit i build a huge house for my npc.
Then is build out the pit with platforms and stonebrick walls with torches attached to the site.
If this thing is fully build out inadd some doors inside the pit to start expanding left and right.
Eventually i'll add some mine carts if i can dig straight enough.
didn't starbound say it was "just about to leave early access" 2 months ago?
did it actually or was it just more lies?

most servers are shit because nobody knows how to force new chars, protect blocks, or have the server remember players inventories so that they can't bring in anything from other worlds

You're going to want to build nice houses but then you'll realize it's hard work and not very fun and you'll just build commie blocks to get as many NPCs as possible into a small space without using many resources
>>342078385
I was at least 50% with you up until the last bit. Red has gone above and beyond the call of duty as far as developers are concerned, for a cheap 'pay once' game he has done so god damn much. The amount of added content in the major updates since I first bought it has made me 100% certain that I will buy Terraria 2, the guy deserves the money he gets unlike certain other cube fuckers (notch).

The grind is eternal. Is it fun? Yeah, kinda. But it's not REALLY done yet.

So the map is bigger than that right?

Only a little bit.

Yeah, i'll pick this up in the steam sale Thursday
many hours of fun (am at 425 atm), many different playthroughs, many weapons, challenging
>>342074547
w8, you never got to the first boss (which will appear with 200 hearts)? there are plenty of bosses, many different biomes, secrets & more.
try playing Nterraria - the quest system is great
>>342096778
Three pyramids? really?
>>342097263
y, but not in every world (mostly in big worlds) and it's rare. plus they add items that are good in early games
>>342097263
Its a large map from what i see, so its pretty normal.
Only thing that sucks is that his ice region is getting buttfucked by corruption.
>>342097263
I see four.
>>342075942
I'd plant my seed deep in Dryad's fertile soil.
Steampunker is second best girl.
I've never really understood how to deal with corruption/crimson/hallow. Like yeah, spray the shit out of it, but thats super fucking tedious for one and is really fucking hard when it starts spreading into solid blocks, which it already has by the time you get the steampunker. Is there an easier way I'm just not aware of?
>>342092979
Then I should probably tell you there were boss fights in the game the whole time.
>>342099601
You might actually be retarded if you have to rely on the wiki
Can we play together if I pirate the game?
>>342099841
yes, we can
Only spreads on dirt blocks with grass, sand, ice and rocks. Just find a place between your base and the corruption/crimson/hallow and build a 5-6 blocks wide wall of material that doesn't change (wood works). Won't be possible to stop underground corruption/crimson/hallow spread and you might start losing your jungle at some point (an extremely slow process, you'll be done with the game before it gets completely destroyed), but that generally hardly does any damage to your base.

Cool, what version should I download? How do we meet up?
I've never really played before.
>>342100369
I'm downloading 1.3.1.1
Anyone want to play? Do we have to set it up through Tuungle?
>>342100513
I hope you plan to buy the game.
>>342100369
you'll need the newest version (1.3.1.1) - not going help you with that.
but desu just get it from Steam or GoG - 10$ isn't that much for a game giving that much playtime. Wait some days and get it on sale for around 3$
>>342100513
don't know about tuungle, played multiplayer @ other servers per hamachi or directly through IP
You can actually play together via steam now and local hosting
>>342100615
Can you host and give IP so I can try to join?
>>342075002
Chucklefuck's stillborn project still has only one single feature I want in Terraria, which is the musical instrument MIDI system.I recently downloaded a huge folder of midi tracks, solely in case I ever get bored enough to play Starbound again.
post base
>>342096286
I guess I just pirated the game and could join this IP if anyone cares.
Time to start playing. Swoocie btw.
post your houses bros
I lost the cool ones I had in 1.1 and below, this is the one in which I was doing my 1.2 run - I didn't feel like building a huge castle again so I went with the bare minimum that's not just a commie block. there are also a few small shacks that you can teleport to, one of them is your typical surface mushroom biome, with a mushroom house and so on.
>>342074269
Great bang for buck. Get some friends.
>>342075235
i have it for both. i like to lay in bed and build comfy houses. don't listen to the noncomfy.
I'll be honest with you, I think they are making progress with Starbound. Implementing several different things and improving every aspect of the game.
The only issue is that it shouldn't take fucking years to do that for fucks sake.

here's a new world for 1.3 that I just started - I haven't played Terraria ever since the christmas update with the santa invasion. now I'm playing with a few friends on a world that one of them is hosting, so I'm building my own little piece of shit when they're not available.
>>342101357
WIP
>>342101357
Started this world a couple of days ago, still not sure where I'm going with the house but I wanted to check out the weeb-styled materials
>>342101596
Awesome background wall ideas
I always loved building mountain bunkers.
Ignore the water on the lowest level. I did not notice it till after the pic was taken. I dont even have a clue how it got there in the first place.
>corruption/hallow not contained after beating moon lord
The real crime.
>>342074432
This.Unless you duplicateAlso fuck the jungle
>>342103080
Seriously, there should be some way of stopping its spread, I don't care what it is. I mean I guess you could run around and spray with the clentaminator but fuck that, it's expensive and not very accurate in purification
r8 my fortress.
Want to do something on the roof, dunno what though.
>>342103238
I thought sunflowers stopped their spread or something
>>342103568
Only pre-hardmode.
The only problem I have with building elaborate houses in this game is that eventually enemies will attack it that can move through blocks and climb up walls.
So unless you want all your npcs to die every solar eclipse you have to build sky bases.
>>342103238
You make a brick lined hellavator.
That's how you stop it.
>>342103629
I usually detach my house from the ground before I beat WoF. Then I fill in the empty space with some walls so that it doesn't look too awkward
>>342103629
That would only happen during a blood moon or event, you can just move away from your base then.
>>342103708
>>342103629
I build mini-towers (3-4 stories) on each side and wall off the back into something that looks like a feast hall, courtyard, atrium or whatever.
The functionality is the same.
The only problems I've ever had was clowns when they would spawn inside your base and their bombs destroyed blocks.
>>342076201
>half the game
>building shit
not really, most people don't find enjoyment in doing that and the people who do are the kinds of fags that spend several hours in a character creator instead of playing the real game
>>342103846
Thankfully clowns don't destroy blocks anymore, that was such bullshit
>>342103902
>playing the """real""" game
Building a functional base which will protect you during events is just as important as grinding for materials/items and killing monsters
Things that sort of ruin this game:
Eternally spreading biomes
Poor boss balancing
And what >>342103629 said.
Other than that the game is great. I just wish there were more naturally occurring structures to find both on the surface and underground. Underground cabins get boring after a while, and jungle shrines are pretty bad.
>>342103432
0.1/10
the .1 is for the effort of screencapping it
>>342104012
making a building pretty doesn't make it any better its just a waste of time. if you gave a shit about protection you would just put a hole in a mountain and make this so you can get on with doing something actually fun
>want to build a cute little village with intricate houses for all my npcs
>cant because i know they would die with every event

Build a long ass tunnel for the wall. It will minimize the ennemy interference.

Fighting the goblin army and mothron must be a huge pain.
>>342104435
literally one room, its less visually distracting than the cities you propose with ""details"" that are supposed to make anything in terraria not look like complete fucking shit
>>342074547
Terraria's a slow burn in the beginning, but it improves as you collect more shit. Some run-fast boots, a double jump, gear that lets you cling to the wall, a magnet that collects mana stars from downed enemies, a band that makes your health regenerate faster. Beat the goblin army and you can find a goblin npc underground that sells rocket boots and a tinker table that can combine accessories. Get 200 health and each night has a chance of spawning the first boss randomly, unless you summon it on purpose. Use purification powder from the dryad (unlocked as an npc that can move in from beating any boss) to de-evil the stone in the evil biome and make it mineable, or throw bombs to do the job for you, smash orbs or hearts to get weapons or accessories from the evil biome's ground, smash three to fight the evil biome's boss, and so on. Move on to the jungle, find shit in jungle shrines or find bees and kill the queen bee, all for more equipment. Or move on straight to the dungon, talk to the old man at night and kill the giant floating skeleton, then plunder the dungeon's depths.
Then you can go all the way underground into the Underworld, find all sorts of neat shit down there, and then fight a literal wall of flesh that follows you from one side of the map to the other and, once defeated, unlocks the remaining 80% of the game.
It really snowballs as you get more gear and faster mining tools and more confidence in your ability to explore.

i didn't even know that. i just use console commands to give me the stuff i need so i dont even have to worry about npcs

Does this Ikuy slut do anything worth looking at or does she think people like her for her video games and not because they want to see her big fat ass?
>>342103629
There's actually a pretty simple solution.
Enemies that phase through walls but don't fly have a limit to how high they can go. Something like 5 blocks, and they can't grab on to anything higher, so the lower area being a mess hall is the best way to go. Else, if you have a relatively small into-the-surface gulag, you can make a moat of air to the sides of your base in the ground that forces wraiths and reapers to fall down through the air, and work it out so that they've got no chance but to fall into a 5 or 6 space tall moat under your gulag, unable to do anything to escape short of leaving your base entirely.
>>342103629
whats even the problem with npcs dying? they just respawn in a couple of minutes and go back to the house
>>342104046
>poor boss balancing
Elaborate, please.
>eternally spreading biomes
If you fish crates, you don't need to smash altars, which means the only corruption/hallow that will exist in your world is the pre-existing stuff and the giant V in the middle of your world, making it a pretty simple matter to cleanse or contain.
Post your aesthetic
>>342105442
Some people like to keep their characters for alive as long as possible, and nobody likes losing all their npcs when they want to buy shit the next day, and it's not even guaranteed that all npcs will spawn the next day.
Furthermore, in multiplayer servers, npcs are frequently unable to teleport to their homes at night because people idle in the base, leading them to just getting killed again.
>>342105612
only two npcs offer anything worthwhile and they show up really early, everytime ive ever collected npcs ive already got everything ill need up til the end from exploration alove before the first invasion even begins. this immersion shit is so pointless, ill just leave the thread
>>342074269
digging digging digging and some more fucking digging
not worth
>>342104572
I never fight anything in or near the house, I set up this trap stack a few hundreds blocks west of the house, most invasions can simply be waited out
also, on a side note, are there any weapons similar to the magnet sphere? it's really fucking cool, but the damage output is lagging behind now

Does people play this online? if they do is the grieffing too hard? i'm kinda interested but i'm affraid of the grieffing.
>>342107253
You can make serverside characters if you're worried about griefing.
And most people don't really give a fuck either way, as any world is a throwaway world, pretty much.

Do not be afred of grieff. I am people who does play this online and I not encounter grieff because play with friends.
