So here's a question I have for anyone waiting with bated breath for when Terraria 1.4 comes out. How are you best preparing yourself for it in terms of hype, or novelty? For example, I can see two routes here:
Both of these routes have their dangers, but I also feel that they're particularly innate to the individual and their own life. Maybe some people have a great difficulty in restoring the concept of "novelty" a'la the first bullet point, and the tactic is therefore ineffective. But, maybe someone else (Or that same first person...) also get far too used to something the more they do it, like playing thousands of hours of Terraria over and over again with no expansion in tangible goals or content to engage them. So maybe that's a death sentence for that player and even a new patch is just "Ugh, more Terraria?"
What do you think? How are you preparing yourself for patch 1.4?
- You abstain from playing Terraria for half a year or more, hoping the novelty would regenerate itself and it would be like playing the game for the first time. After all, we never do know when it will come out, so we don't know how long we'll be not playing.
- Take no break from it but play more Vanilla than modded Terraria, all to the point where you are intimately familiar with the latest version that's out now so when 1.4 emerges, you'll instantly see all of the differences and can appreciate them that much more.
