You posted an opinion to a public forum, you can't say "don't respond"
I can literally say whatever i like. I'm physically capable of doing so. Besides adding fuel to the flame your points below
1.4 does bring new things to the table. A lot of new things. Assuming you mean journey mode, it still adds a lot. It adds the ability to research items and duplicate them, as opposed to cheat sheet which gives them for free, plus adds difficulty slider, which hero's mod doesn't have. It also gives console and mobile players (who make up half of the players of Terraria) the ability to have these things.
This discussion is about journey mode. "research items and duplicate them" So you mean an overly complicated system for creative mode?
Good thing it isn't a selling point then, as it wasn't featured in any marketing for the update.
It would also be false advertising.
Clearly you have no idea how advertising works. But this discussion isn't about that, it was just a point made. Let's stay on topic now.
Good thing Re-logic isn't doing any of that.
Point here is. They're doing some crappy things without even giving credit towards others work which is very clearly not okay. Maybe not illegal but still pretty crappy thing to do.
What do you mean "marketing focus"? Journey mode has literally been in none of the marketing for this update.
and i quote...no idea how marketing works.
> Also, journey mode isn't the only feature in this update.
irrelevant to the discussion and this thread.
That isn't what Re-logic did. If you mean cheat sheet, then you're just plain wrong. Cheat sheet allows you to spawn every item, npc, and boss for free. Journey mode, however, makes you get the item and then you can research it and get it for free. It's completely different. If you mean hero's mod, I kind of get where you're coming from. Journey mode has many of the same features as hero's mod. However, many of these features have been asked of the devs even before hero's mod. It's not even like hero's mode is useless now, it still has many more features that journey mode, and is better for being a "creative mode".
Since you mentioned it. Let me make this very clear. The concept for the menu, the base work and the concepts of the mod were blatantly ripped from cheatsheet.
I want to slap you through the computer for how absolutely blindly you're spouting "uh but it's different". If i steal the base code of terraria and sell it online with different sprites and graphics and slightly tweak the mechanics so they are "different" does that make it not terraria? No.
>Not implying the code was stolen from cheat sheet. It's a metaphor<
But to have re-logic sit there and go "hey we clearly came up with this idea, here is the new journey mode!" when it looks so blatantly like cheat sheet is insulting to the mod creator and the community re-logic has built. If they had sat down and worked with the mod author or at least discussed stuff with the mod author things would be different. But do we see credit anywhere? No. And because of that it makes them look really damn crappy.
Yeah, that's definitely the reason, and not because your argument doesn't have a leg to stand on when met with any criticism.
You much like everyone else here seems to be missing the main point which again i have outlined above. So before you continue acting like a child and being combative for 0 reasons other than to incite more arguing, let me explain something.
Game journalism is literally my job.
I know what i'm talking about and even if i didn't your criticism based on my opinionated discussion holds no merit and is irrelevant simply for the fact that you cannot comprehend that this discussion was started on the topic listed here and the issues that are present with how this update has been handled. Please think before responding just because you want to try and get a rise out of someone. When you can see past the foggy glasses you're wearing and can objectively see the issues with how this update has been marketed, then we can continue this discussion. Until then, Thank you and good night.
