The Jungle Juice spoiler is amazing and congratulations to the painting winners, the third place painting is the most beautiful in my opinion. But why don't the developers announce right away that they will have to delay it until next year instead of stalling and saying "just a little longer"? If I was a little rude, I apologize.

Because we haven’t determined that yet… but in full candor, it’s looking likely.

We will know for sure by next SOTG.

It comes down to progress on the lists and possibly a few other decisions we need to make on possible content additions.

We aren’t trying to be sneaky haha - and you aren’t being rude in any way.
 
what I'M wondering is how is this hypothetical player is post-mechs without wings
View attachment 485682
Most wings are actually pretty weak before mechanical bosses due to Featherfall Potion giving double jumps and mounts more nimbleness than wings with the same total mobility (if not more) imo, the first good wings are Jetpack, and then most of the other wings beyond that point are terrible besides a couple outliers (Betsy, Empress, and Hoverboard).
Many Wings have pretty bad acceleration in every direction which means that they’re actually not the best form of mobility for the majority of the game imo. Especially considering how much accessory slot dedication they take.

While we are here before state of the game hype dies down until the end of this month, we might aswell theorize.

What will 1.4.5 be called? I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up being called the "true labour of love" with how big the update is getting.

Imagine it is called "From 0 to 60 in 13"
(due to from 0 to 60 sales in 13 years which can be interpreted also as from 0 to 60 mph in 13 seconds which is quick for a normal car)
 
that mantra of "it's ready when it's ready" has served us, the game
Tho unlike your previous updates this one doesn't seem to be getting any closer to being "ready" for quite the long time.
But who knows maybe in 2 more years it will be finally ready.. That assuming the "best case scenario"

At this point i would personaly prefered if the update ended up as actual small crossover with Dead Cells like it originally was to be long time ago + QOL stuff attatched to it.
And rest of the large potion of the "content fluff" added later "when it's ready" in another update. One can dream...

To clarify the teased QoL changes is the thing i am mostly "impatient" for.
As most of these are downright game changing. In a good way, fixing some of the long standing annoyances Terraria has.

I used the gelatinous pillion and feather fall potions to fight skeleton prime last September. It worked really well

In prev. post Loki might as well just said: "we are going to release it in december". What else do you need?

I do partially agree with you, but I have a different train of thought here.

We're already getting Crossover at a later date than this update, so my proposed idea is that QoL would be released with Crossover, and actual features such as secret seed menu, changing light, crossover content, etc. would be released in 1.4.5

If you are playing on PC, you can use in TML many QOL mods in the mean time.

About mantras: I use the mantra "It's ready when it's ready when training my muscles. I do not rush getting visible abs muscles or biceps and doing so would do more harm than good.
 
TML has nothing that reallly interests me or anything close to what was teased by ReLogic in that scope.
You’re probably not quite looking hard enough then, there are a ton of tmod qol mods which re-logic has far less fleshed out spoilers for (my favorite is Better Inventory)

Still not interested in those supposedly "tons of mods" that you personally think are "more fleshed out" than the upcoming official changes and additions.

Where did Loki said anything remotely like this?
Especially since it contradicts with what was recently officialy said about there being no estimate release.
