anybody else bored of this game?
the terraria community is so soft and squishy i'm just gonna go ahead and say it, this game is NOWHERE NEAR a masterpiece, the game goes on 3 base gimicks build, fight and "explore" most biomes are very similar but with more annoying enemies, maybe a new ore and a new theme, speaking of enemies they absolutely implemented them TERRIBLY, instead of knowing when and where they spawn the devs just said f\ck it and had enemies spawn every five second in EVERY STAGE OF THE GAME. how am i supposed to get better summoner items without finch staff? you don't. how do you beat any boss as a melee without a projectile because god forbid they'd rework bosses to be semi fair? you don't. the games repetitive and isn't even a challenge, its just straight up annoying and feels like a waste of time, i don't hate this game but i definitely haven't been looking at it fondly these past couple of years, its a 5/10 at most unless you have mods so the games semi enjoyable, and don't even get me started on the world gen. its literally terrible, floating clumps of dirt, corruption at spawn, nearly un traversable without flight, also instead of corruption growing after say a boss or a event they just said woopsie daisy lets have a plague that prevents npc spawns and is terrible at every point of the game spread every minute so that you cant take your time to appreciate the game!

also the setups for each build in pre hardmode (besides maybe range) is pretty trash even after 1.4.4, the only piece of armor for mage is jungle armor which makes you go to the worst biome in the game with nearly no combat capability, its just get item die and go back to get more item its super annoying and a very bad look for new player (unless your brainwashed and cant fathom somebody not having an amazing opinion on something you love) and i have 1.500 hours on tmod and nearly 700 on vanilla so i didn't just pull this outta my ass.



p.s. minecraft didn't deserve a single dollar they made, sh is STILL in beta and its been a decade now and the content compared to terraria is so much more lackluster it makes terraria seem like a modern art piece.

If the boring game wasted over 2,000 hours of your life away already and made you write this Bible page then I think it's fine. Burnout is real and exists with every video game, just play something else for a while.

Do what normal people do and play something else. No game is really supposed to keep you occupied for thousands of hours, unless you really enjoy the gameplay loop.

I just beat Queen Slime on Expert easily using a Melee build. The upgraded Nights Edge Reforged to Legendary is Incredibly powerful. You don't have to range every boss. For Pre Hardmode bosses I think the standard Nights Edge will perform pretty good. I do agree somewhat though what you said that a Melee build can be tough as the bosses can hit pretty hard. Maybe the Defence on Melee gear should be raised a bit? Some of the Yoyo's are pretty strong but It does feel more like a shorter ranged weapon.

I love the building aspect of the game. When bored i'll just build a new house or an NPC Hotel, or build a cool looking shaft right down to the underworld. I actually like the building side more than the combat side.

That's why it's called a "survival crafting" game, like pretty much any other game of the genre

how are the biomes similar? i don't recall a pyramid inside the jungle, i don't recall a temple in the ice caverns, and i didn't fight any demons in the underground desert (among several exemples). So no, each biome have their own identity, their own structures, their own enemies, their own unique loot (even if some is shared between different biomes), ...

as for enemies, they are supposed to be obstacles to defeat. So of course they are going to be a threat to you. They aren't there to offer you a cup of tea. This is pretty much the same in any game with enemies: they are here to challenge the player. Especially for a survival game, they are always designed to be a bit unpredictable (like not knowing when and where they spawn). This isn't a zelda game where you ca get a cinematic on every enemy, or can lock on on the enemies.

well, pure summoner class was always considered the hardest to start with (assuming no help). It is kinda similar with pure mage class too.

As many RPG, warrior players that rely on being very close combat require enough defence. The same applies here, although you shouldn't rely on purely defence, you are still very likely to make an effort on dodging attacks while chipping the HP.

while it is true if you plan to collect most / all items, some repetitive grinding will be necessary, it isn't required to go overboard justto beat the game. However, as you progress, the challenge is getting a bit harder. While you improve your equipment, you will face stronger bosses, which will then unlock stronger equipment (and / or new materials / new progression) that might help you for the next boss. And so on. It is also up to you to determine your playstyle, and see if you come up with more ways of playing (like class playthrough, playing with mods, exploiting journey mode, playing master mode, using secret seeds, ...) There is definitely enough content to keep you busy, both casual players and hardcore players.

well, world gen is technically randomised. Sometimes you get lucky, sometimes you don't. It is up to you to adapt your gameplay to the situation. Is there corruption close to the spawn? Do you go the opposite way? Do you rush through the corruption while trying to avoid fighting as much as possible (to avoid losing too much time)?

After you beat WoF, the world change a lot, spawning 2 new evil biomes. Also biome spreading is much more important. It might be better to take precautions while still in pre-HM, by containing important areas, and preparing the future spread.

meteor armor also exist for mages. As for other classes, they all get 1-2 sets in pre-HM that help the class a bit. Of course it's not as strong as the HM equipment, but for pre-HM, it's decent. The goal isn't to be OP at pre-HM. You have to keep improving your equipment.

Also, you only lose your inventory items if you play in "mediumcore", which is usually not the 1st choice for new players (except those who had lot of experience with others similar games, and are feeling confortable).

Very bad attempt at trolling.

The only thing this game IS indubitably bad at is signaling about progression opportunities to player.

The rest varies from mildly decent to indubitably awesome.

If I'm bored trying to trivialize hardmode master mode, I can always return to normal world just to vent off some steam.

If I'm bored of venting, I can return to my #1 guilty pleasure: GOLF.

If (IF) even golf won't do anymore, there are gamechanging seeds and mods. Enough for now - and there were more gamechangers teased for 1.4.5 .

And there's more...

P. S.

>how am i supposed to get better summoner items without finch staff?

Ever heared of Abigail's Flower, best and most accessible pre hardmode summoning item?

that's why most of my time was spent on tmod, the qol and more content severely helped, you'd notice that if you saw that i didn't care for vanilla. mods can make ANYTHING great.

ill say this. the sword reworks really helped and i really makes me feel stupid for not taking that into consideration.

Terraria is not a rougelike, so there is your first mistake lol. Also, 1.4 and 1.4.4 were much more than “some crossovers and a boss or two”, with 1.4.4 being literally dedicated to QOL changes, as well as a complete revamp of the majority of melee weapons.

yeah i havent touched the games in months now because of it, im not even hating im just saying what i think of the game. its good, that i wont dismiss but is it a masterpiece? absolutely not.
and this might sound other worldly and its probably foreign to your soft brain but,
people. have. opinions.
whether or not mine was an utter sh|t take and would get me canceled if i dared to post it on YouTube i don't care, fact is that you read what i typed, i feel great just knowing that you fr cared enough to even reply to it.

idk game genres like that fact was that i liked games very similar and enjoyed terraria for a fat minute, not to mention you could argue it is a rouge like if you took hardcore into consideration.

You keep trying to hammer in the fact that this is your opinion, but not a single person has told you your opinion is invalid. They are providing their own opinion to counter yours. It’s also just general friendly advice that when you stop enjoying a game, it means you’re burnt out and should play something else.

not a troll, infact the only reason im so critical about this game (which i used to love) is because how immature the community is, the games not that great on a modern standpoint, Isaac for example expanded upon the world and story while terraria just throws occasionally crossovers and a boss or two. you could argue this just isnt my type of game, and to that i say that i absolutely love rouge-likes so insulting a treasured game like this was not said with the intent of gaining respect.

And at quoting too. Tell me that it was incidental, I dare ye.

from what ive seen the terraria community can get pretty toxic so forgive me for trying to be mature about my opinions, and for the last time. these were problems i had with the game even when i enjoyed it. not to mention i dont want people to counter my opinions, thats the point of an opinion its YOUR view on something, its like saying "i hate murderers" and people arguing that they're the greatest man to walk on earth and YOUR the bad person here, your trying to prove an opinion wrong when that is literally impossible since they're just opinions, thats like basic social skills. i just wanted to see if anybody else was experiencing these issues like i was to see if my opinion was shared, i can easily sit with the fact that my opinion is garbage but it cant just be changed like that, this isn't an argument bro its just opinions.
