    I bought Terraria years ago for like $3 while it was still beta testing/first launching. I have played over 900 hours and still get use out of it. Some of the best $3 I’ve ever spent

      Just a heads up (and sorry) but 1.0 released in 2011, 13 years ago. It was more than years ago when you (we) purchased it. Again, sorry.

      the thing about terraria is that the devs love to play as much as the players. so they love the game and are always interested in making the experience better. not just for the players but them too.

      they’re also not a massive corporate run, shareholder-pleasing company either. so they actually listen to suggestions from fans. it’s the best.

        They’re also in the enviable position of having made a game with some of the highest profit per employee in history, so they’re not under the pressure that most are.

        They’ve been saying it since 1.1.2. In 2012. There have been 12 major patches since then if you count all the 1.2.X patches as one.

      Me too. It’s probably been 10 years since I’ve last played. I have a solid 64 hours played and no achievements completed. Maybe I should check it out when this update comes out. It’ll probably feel like a brand new game at this point.

        I love the game I just hate having to build the houses and manage the people. It’s not creative it’s just make these boxes in this certain way.

    I tried to get into terraria so many times, but this 2d perspective is just not doing it for me. For the same reasons, I don’t play metroidvanias and platformers. There are some platformer that I like, Gris, for example, but that’s not exactly the same. I have no problems with Core keeper or Stardew valley, so the genre is not the problem. I need to reconcile with it and accept that some games are just not for me.

    Has anyone played this with a controller? It seems like the aiming would be awkward.

    1.4.5 is a major update? Then why isn’t it 1.5.0 or 2.0.0? Use semver, people!

    Wake me up when they add a non-binary option.

    People said it couldn’t be done because the game was finished, that was determined to be a lie.
