Terraria 1.4.5 confirmed for 2025?
Let's hope; if it reaches three years without release, it's said that the Ghost of Otherworld will appear and drag the Latest Update into the River Cancelled.Terraria 1.4.5 confirmed for 2025?
Sure. They always do.
It’s been a longer than usual span of development - we aren’t ignorant to that. However, we are not going to change from our usual path.
That being the release date is always “when it’s ready” and always has been. The scope has changed over time and thus the time taken has grown. We aren’t going to cut things off half way or half done just to push something out.
Navigating a post-Lein world had a larger impact than anyone expected as well. He was a critical part of a lot of processes just for one aspect.
If anything, we should just have never given any sense of a time window until we knew 100%… lesson learned there.

Honestly, Lok, can I call you that? I TOTALLY get how you guys feel, and honestly the approach that you guys have taken its ready when its ready has always worked, and Id rather not have a half done or half baked product, and with the loss of Leinfors a major component of the QA department, I can imagine that made extra work for the rest of you in that aspect, but Im not saying that is a nasty way, and i honestly respect you guys for not having a time window of released until you know 100% its more or less nearly ready for release, though I fear some of the more inexperienced and impatient members here, might not get that sadly, thats not be slighting them mind, but good things come to those that wait thats my point.Sure. They always do.

So with this new Terraria x Palworld cross, we would propably see new items in Terraria? Best part is that people still wait for Dead Cells cross update XD
You guys push soo much stuff into Terraria, it's okay at all, but why it's not divided to few small updates instead one big?
In every state of game, You just repeat "wait a little bit longer", I literally would prefer to see what is finished and done now, and wait year or 2 for next update instead reading things like "we had idea so we adding this" - like never ending story.
It's second time when update take over 3 years...

Give them some time, being an indie game development team isn't the easiest. We'll get some new info in the next SOTG (tomorrow).
We aren’t going to arbitrarily cut an update in pieces and release it just because.
Again we aren’t ignorant to how long it has been - all we can do is give as clear a picture as possible at any given point in time. Things are always subject to change as well.
I’d say we have a decent track record over 10+ years using our method… as organic and unpredictable as it can be. So it will be this time as well.

The first announcement was on 2022-11-03. Today is 2024-11-27, which is right now only 2.066 years, thus 0.934 years away from 3 years. But you have to be a bit more patient so the update does not turn out bad after all the time.

Also, please do keep in mind that they have had to make do without Leinfors, who was in control of so much, so Re-Logic has had to adjust as a result. That combined with the extensive amount of content being added... It takes time. It'll be worth the wait.

100% spot on. Don't forget as well that this update will be free for all of us too, and for game over a decade old. I'm perfectly happy waiting for something like that.It takes time. It'll be worth the wait.
I don't prefer them to do "mini updates", it would be very boring and the waits wouldn't make the updates exciting in my opinion. And another thing, for me, let them take as long as they want, which is their game and I am willing to wait as long as Re-Logic asks of me. As King Jameth III has said, the loss of Leinfors has greatly affected development and the team

Yeah, losing Leinfors was a major setback sadly, though it couldnt be helped, again Re-Logic and Leinfor's friends and family have my love and support, I know how it feels to lose a loved one, as for a Palworld crossover, thats cool, I havent played Palworld and im not really a fan of it, fair enough if that becomes a thing. I wouldnt wind a crossover with the Diablo games myself specifically Diablo 3, cause thats my favourite one, though I did play a bit of 1 & 2 at my friend's house when I was very young.

Diablo 3 is the only one I've played, and that started about when I was 9 and my Mom had a book club with her co-workers so I went over to her co-workers house and played with her husband
Very fun, would recommend, and I can see the possibilities for a crossover.

Ahh, nice to see some fellow fans, I had it on the Xbox 360 years back, and that apparently was the original v1 vanilla, but its changed as a game a lot through development, friom the official game guides, and what i read on the wiki, my favourite part is grinding the Paragon Levels and doing the Greater Rifts, Ive beaten up to GR35, and can comfortable grind GR30 if I want, Im Paragon 633, but the downside is I need 7 
ing billion experience points to level up, now damn, bring those Greater Rift Keystones! Oh, Lokis on!
