Terrarian
I have been playing this game since version 1.1 and despite so many years and great content after that I remember my first playthrough the best. Back then there were only 2 set of wings, the best range weapon was megashark and people used to kill the Destroyer with adamantine chainsaw.
There is no doubt the game has become much more pretier and smooth to play. But there was something about old Terraria that is now almost gone. I don't think it's the joy of exploring everything for the first time. Nor do I think it's the difficulty of the game. Playing 1.4 on master let me relive a fragment of what I liked most about this game but only before getting first decent hardmode weapon. And it had me thinking, wanting that whole game was steady challenge rather than fly-dodging in circles - shoot behind. A simple fact that all melee weapons which do not fire a projectile are complete trash should tell about something.
Would you like to play a mod/overhaul which would tone things down? Terraria Classic, if you wish. Do you think it would be boring?
