Rezerkity

The weirdest experience I've had in Terraria is a zombie suddenly stopping its movement while it was on a flat surface with no obstructions, as if it walked into a wall, and then it just turned around and left. It wasn't because day arrived or anything, it just randomly decided to leave and I never quite figured out why

I fossilise a little every time I remember I bought Terraria in 2011 and I still play it in 2025

roses are red
violets are red
everything is red
get the clentaminator

People who write paragraph after paragraph about their disappointment and anger at a game/update not releasing in a timely manner are the digital equivalent of a Karen stereotype ngl

you ever typing a really long response and then delete it because you realise you don't care about the topic anymore

I feel like I still harbour a lot of PTSD from the 1.1 era where the biome spread was completely out of control, and we had no Clentaminator, no way to reduce biome spread like we do with boss kills now, etc.

Every time I hit Hardmode I feel like I have to immediately rush the mech bosses, Plantera, Clentaminator, control biome spread, Hallow the borders of the Jungle, etc.
But it's really not the case.

Now we have:
Biome spread halving after killing Plantera
Clentaminator after defeating 1 mech boss
Terraformer after defeating Moon Lord
Jungle now converts into other biomes and isn't destroyed permanently by them
Various means to get any biome seed from the Dryad

And we have coming:
NPCs spawning regardless of if there's housing for them

There's just not really a good reason to fret about it anymore.

The more I think about Terrarian vs Steve the more I think they'd just be friends, I mean they're both creative powerful creatures in their respective worlds, saviours of their worlds for defeating some big bad monsters threatening it, and they both dabble in magic, guns, swords, pets and companions, building, etc...
They should be roommates.

Terrarian vs Steve is the most 'hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby' powerscaling battle of all time

Literally the only chance I can think of Steve having is if they somehow do the funny Mace instakill from y300 to y-60 on an afk Terrarian
Or idk, Steve in endgame gear while Terrarian has just spawned

Honestly seeing all the entitlement and vitriol is kind of entertaining. It isn't like we've had full mod support to keep people busy for years between updates

I don't feel entitled to speedy update releases, I'm just impatient. When it releases I'll enjoy it all the same, I just wish I could play it right now.

Well, at least we know the update will be here by February then

I wonder if my estimate for a November release will be true? I've got plenty other things to play though, the hype has died out for me, I just keep tabs on the game monthly now.

After time to reflect, I think the most important things for the enjoyment of Terraria are:

Do not lock yourself into a class and refuse to use anything from other classes, it just makes earlygame feel awful and emphasises the weaknesses of a class that you are arbitrarily creating, this isn't an RPG where you are locked out of other gear, so just use it

Deprioritise progression, and focus on enjoying building and exploring, and building fun stuff, because Terraria is a building sandbox too, not just a combat game

Don't play Master or other difficulties just because people say it's the right way to play. Pick what level of engagement you want. Want a casual experience for sandboxing? Try Journey, and just don't use the cheats if you feel like being legit.

I'm becoming increasingly convinced of my belief of a November release

After a hiatus from the game because I still think the update will launch in November, I'm finding every class fun actually

Melee is the most straightforward
Ranged has the most balanced power/versatility/defense
Mage is the master of set bonuses and weapon variety
Summoner has the most unique gameplay mechanics and risk-reward gameplay

I really need to temper my expectations for the update, I've hyped it up in my head too much outside of what is promised to be delivered.

Very excited for Terraria State of the Game September 2039 to announce the addition of a dead transformation mount that instantly kills you when used, and to give us lots of juicy information on the Terraria 2 board game

I wonder where the state of the game is? It's pretty late into the final day of the month.

I don't usually post my art here since it's 99% unrelated to Terraria, I'm hoping I find more inspiration to make art when the update hits. I might have to take more screenshots and paint stuff from my first world in it.
