Portfolio/Multi-Topic Lotta suggestions from a guy who's been a Terrarian for almost 8 years.

Hey Red!
I first played Terraria on my ps3 when I was 7. It was the Demo version. I immediately loved it SO MUCH! and when my birthday came
about a week later, I bought Terraria for my ps4(I had a ps3 and ps4.), it was so much fun playin splitscreen with my siblings.

now im 15 and I know almost everything there is to know about the game, I've spent loads of my time on the wiki and playin it on my ps4 with my siblings.
but there's some things I would like changed and added, so I gathered everything I can think of that I've ever found wrong with the game,
or something that it could improve on, so here's my list, I hope you read it.

QOL
1 I would really love a slime rain monolith, cause slime background is so cool. And monoliths's for other background effects that don't have monoliths would be cool.

2 When "Guide Vodoo Fish" "Hungry Fish" "Demonic Hellfish" etc. Were added, lava fishing was only possible after hardmode, but now that there's
lava critters I don't see any reason that these are still caught in the cavern layer, these should be caught in lava, and give better rewards when given to
the angler, similar to honey quest fish.

3 A endgame furniture item that lets you control rain and wind, similar to journey mode.(not that necesary though.)

4 A endgame lantern night monolith or lantern night summon.(not necesarry though.)

5 The most important thing I need is good gamepad support for PC, it's terrible compared to console, it needs binding multible actions to the same button,
binding several buttons together to 1 action, cause there's not a lot of buttons on a controller it makes terraria, and especially TModLoader near impossible to get a good button layout
also console terraria needs the abiltity to bind multiple actions to the same button, thanks.

1 Shimmer fishing needs to be a thing, I LOVE to fish especially in Legendary mode(which I have beaten in Mediumcore) where fishing is the only
"somewhat safe" thing to do.

2 More quest fish, and quest fish rewards, I'm sick of gettin the same crap, and fishing for the same fish.

3 The list of quest fish isn't too small, but due to it bein random I often fish up at least 80 quest fish without fishing each type,
it would be a lot better for the angler to be given a random cycle of quest fish that restarts with a new cycle every time you fish up every quest fish.
This way, it's random, but your garunteed to get each type before it restarts the cycle.
I would REALLY love this, it would improve the angler a LOT.

4 My sister really wants ash's hat from pokemon, we've got marios' hat, so why not
.
5 A while ago I was building a giant H tower in Legendary, I had to place thousands of walls around it so no monsters would spawn,
I also wanted it to have ecto coating on it, but when i finished I realized only 1/3 of the walls had ecto coating cause I ran out.
it took me at least 6 hours to place all those and painting would take longer, so I wondered "why is there no build mount?
we have a digging mount.". A endgame building mount Similar to the "Drill Containment Unit" would be AWESOME.
I could finally do mega builds in vanilla Terraria without map editors. I would love it to be able to quickly place loads of blocks, walls,
paint, platforms, furniture, and every placeable item, trying to build a mountain in vanilla terraria is near impossible, but something I've been wanting to do.
if your gonna add anything from this list please add this.


Thanks so much for Terraria Red, it's been my favorite game for years, the only game I like better is Tears of The Kingdom.
But I still play this game a lot, Terraria has been a huge part of my life, and has helped me through so many struggles,
One struggle I remember was when my cat "Heidi" died, after we buried her, I went to play Terraria, about a minute after playing
on the bottom left of my screen I saw the text "Heidi the cat has arrived" don't know how, cause that's not in the list of names for the town cat.
Maybe I remember wrong and it was "Adol", which is short for Adleheid(Heidi's full name.).
This made me feel so much better, and brought me peace.
I can't thank you and your team enough for this game, and if you've read all this I thank you for that as well. Sorry for waiting so long to post this, I forgot to do so.



P.S Also, could you open source "Terraria Otherworld" I know it probably won't be easy, but you made a promise dude.
you can't just go back on it after the community does their part. even years after the games cancellation i always get sad when
hearing Otherworldly music, this would've probably become my favorite game, even more than TOTK.
It's been a dream of mine to somehow finish that game, it'd be great to do so.

It would be weird having it only be visual, but sure

sure

Yes support

Agree. I was thinking on this earlier today actually, but would be a cool addition

2 More quest fish, and quest fish rewards, I'm sick of gettin the same crap, and fishing for the same fish.

AGREEE

4 My sister really wants ash's hat from pokemon, we've got marios' hat, so why not
