That's...really bad. And not bad in a funny way, but bad in a bad way. The toys look decent enough that a little kid would enjoy them (My 7 year old cousin actually told me about them), but not for the people that the game is actually intended towards.
Of course, you can't really fault anyone for this. Re-Logic wants to get toys out there, but it's kind of hard to market a toyline about a game filled with slaughter, innuendo, and throwing things to kids. Then again, Transformers is about two warring factions essentially using the entire universe as their battleground, and committing countless atrocities, and they seem to be doing pretty well with the kiddies.
Anyways, to sum it up, toys look decent, but commercial is terrible. My suggestion is either make the commercial so bad it's good (like the infamous Dudicus commercials from the 80's), or just focus exclusively on the toys, instead of also adding gameplay footage. If there is a toy line for a video game, then, chances are, the person is going to look up the video game.
It would be nice if they just made more plushies. Those were nice because they looked good, didn't cost much, and were fun to have. I hope that if they make commercials, its advertising the actual game.
I would be so sad if re-logic became money hungry. I look up to them specifically because they aren't money hungry.Exactly. These new toys look terrible, but the plush toys actually look decent, and most people just have them because they like terraria, not to play with. I'm worried terraria is going to be like minecraft and even the forums will be affected, a bit worried now. I hope that re-logic doesn't get money hungry and just do stuff like this, but I highly doubt that will happen.
Legos are incredibly popular, tell me, what are small plastic bricks that fit into other small plastic bricks via a system of pegs? I would rather build a lego set before scrolling through twitter...You now. I'm amazed they even sell legos anymore, what with the cell phones and tablets floating around. I thought the only people who even used legos these days were those people who make giant ing castles out of them.
the fact that the characters are now 3d it terrifies meWell, now seeing it, I don't know what to say to this.
