Playing a lot of Terraria. Is there another game that can provide this level of gear variety, gameplay and roleplay depth (from gear dye through plant farming), and is multiplayer?

GTA V is more of a Terraria than Souls.

>Souls community baits this much to deflect from the game's poor design
>>
>>344404359
Terraria has literally no dialogue, all you do is vendor shit for coin that is used as a gatekeeper for certain content for literally no reason

All combat in terraria is just hold left click and press WASD and space, what a piece of shit

>no survival mechanics
>lemme figure out the most efficient npc commieblock because that's all that matters
>>
>>344404872
The NPCs have lots of lines that tell the story, provide guidance/suggestions, and show how they get along with other NPCs. They provide a bunch of items and house materials, and unlocking them is also a set of experiences.

>All combat in terraria is just hold left click and press WASD and space,
Maybe so, but so are shmups, and they're way more interactive than Souls is.

>survival mechanics
I wasn't even suggesting Terraria has survival mechanics, just listing reasons why Souls isn't anything deep. Yet, the game also has mediumcore, which drops items before respawn. It would be simple enough to mod in hunger or whatever as well.

Now explain how this doesn't apply to Greirat, Patches, Siegvard, Hawkwood, Yoel/Yuria, or literally anyone else

>way more interactive than Souls is
One of these games is universally acclaimed for having the best combat system ever created, and the other is terraria.
>>
>>344405524
Souls is renowned for its shitty NPC interaction. Please stop baiting for opinions that shouldn't exist.

>the best combat system ever created
Some shooters have better gameplay than Souls.

In what fucking universe?

Dark Souls 2 was known for having NPC plotlines that kind of start and then just sit around in hub not going anywhere, but the reason this was talked about so much is because Dark Souls 1 and 3 by comparison have the best NPC stories in a modern video game. You would know this if you had actually played the video game you're talking shit about.

jesus christ dude do you actually believe that? I mean I love the souls series but the NPC story lines aren't that fucking good. They're interesting at best and often a bit tragic, but nothing more than that. you just look like a blind fanboy when you say shit like this.

Do small but compact buildings. Dont build commie blocks with the plan of satisfying everything you need in the easiest way.

Filling a small space with all the bits Terraria gives you is easier to do than filling a huge place. And its filling it with stuff that makes it look good.

Anyone know why the inbuilt screenshot function doesn't capture painted objects correctly?? For example, the clothes hanging from the rope near the top tower are supposed to be different colors.

What else compares other then games that exist literally for no purpose and have no gameplay other then storytelling like life is strange or uncharted

Also keep in mind we're actually only comparing it to terraria which has NPC interaction that extends exclusively to one line memes about hitting on (other female npc) and (guide) has died because you needed to spawn the wall of flesh

Fountains that you can buy once you get to hardmode I think. They change the color of all (?) nearby water to the statue's corresponding biome if you activate them
>>
>>344407356
It's nice for a newbie but it's basically what everyone does, solid wood rooms stacked in various ways.

If you wanna build nice homes legit use varying block types and try to think outside of just flat basic rooms stacked ontop of each other

It's just a mini-commie block with random shit put all over the place. Just an ugly rectangle. It's somewhat efficient though, like any commie block.

What the fuck am I doing with my life
>>
>>344406473
Man I used to do shit like this on a small scale. Making a custom WC3 map and making small factions, kingdoms and clans. Dwarves would only have dwarven buildings or units, Magocracy would have the Archmage, sorcerers, priests and so on and so fort. Then I'd manually control them and make alliances and wars between each other(manual attack was a pain in the ass). Every game ended with everyone getting murdered and everything destroyed when I get bored. Each game would last for maybe an hour or two.

But holy shit that guy is on a whole different level.

Not without mods.

So imagined that, though, when playing.
