So with the update for Terraria changing the game to how the pc one works. In terms of UI and everything.
Why was this "update" Just not released as a separate game? You said you reworked the game from the ground up so why get rid of the old one?
Just how Minecraft has done at the moment. Console has 2 different versions. The console version. And the mobile version.
Because I have been saying this from the start as soon as it was mentioned the game would have the pc UI. If I wanted to play with the Pc UI or anything like that. I would play it on pc. Yes some people don't have a decent enough pc to play it on pc. I'm one of those people. The whole reason I bought the console version was to play the console version.
I have bought Terraria on Xbox 360, Xbox One, Pc, Mobile and 3DS, Soon to also be the switch depending on what UI is used. Because I would rather play a version of Terraria that was intended for console players not Pc players. Because that is pretty much what the update is.
"The old engine was broken" So is the new one. Every update has broken the game in some shape or form. Then it gets fixed. And something else happens.
I did not mind waiting for updates to the game. It updates when it updates.
But I would love to know why was this "Update" Not released as a separate game? Delist the old one. And replace it with the new one. But leave the old one downloadable to those that own it before the new one came out. Rather than just update the old one to the new one. Regadless of content updates. I would much rather play Terraria with the old UI since I'm playing on console. I'm fine missing out on content. Or even then I have both versions and can play on both. I want to experience the new stuff. I jump on the new version. I wanna go back to the old one. I go back to the old one.
I doubt I will get a reply but never know. I'm legitimately curious on this matter and would love to know if there is an answer to it.
