I checked the wiki but read what I posted, it's fucking inconsistent

Corruption by far

>>183301949
Yeah, I know. But I get that many bosses require a "summoning ritual", and this sometimes without a guide is really hard to accomplish.

>>183301261
Look at https://terraria.gamepedia.com they have a pretty solid beginner's guide. And in general is the most complete guide you'll find, it also covers the gameplay basics and the bosses strategies.

>>183303759
Crimson.
>more powerful items
>vampire knives in biome chest
>no shitty worm boss
>no wide pits to die to fall damage to early game
>more enemy types than just floaters before hardmode
>shadewood looks better than ebonwood
>no ugly barf green and purple color scheme

>>183304481
No they don't
Just get into a habit of shoving everything new you find to guide.
He can tell everything you can craft from an item.
And items can only be crafted into something if they have "material" in the tooltip.

>Asked Apr 16, 2016
Little over a year, right before 1.3
There was a few months long break where i did not post it, i had lost the link (i never left though), but i recently found it again.
/tg/ seems to be very evenly split about C vs C, ever since i first posted the poll Corruption was pulling ahead VERY slowly, but surely, until it reached 42% vs 58%. It stayed like that for a long time. Only recently after i found the link again did a few Crimson anons bring it to 43% v 57%
I'm also quite impressed that not only is this general still alive, but we keep getting new votes, which means we keep getting new posters.

I find this poll quite interesting and can't bear to bring myself to stop. A few people have complained about it but you can't please everyone, and i did a poll which asked wether i should stop or not and the majority told me to keep it. Besides, it's a free bump, an excuse for others to bump, and sometimes it generates a discussion.

If we ended it after the activity considerably slowed down, /tg/ could stay as a good memory in the back of our minds (like /ntg/ for me personally, god I miss /ntg/) But it's too late for that now, so let's just keep going and see what happens.

Worst $10 I've ever spent on Steam. I've no idea what kind of autism you have to have to enjoy this pile of shit. Shitty, imprecise, and floaty controls and physics, the 2-d view is complete trash, and it just lacks the charm that minecraft; the sound and art design is shit.

Not quite easy to take serisouly when you take fucking minecraft over this.
Terraria is about progression, even if you don't enjoy building and shit you can always aspire to be the strongest guy there ever was and beat unique and strong bosses to prove that, and get even strong and unique way to crush your enemies
Games biggest charm is it's sense of scale and how packed with content it is, no matter what you do, there's always more to do.
It's 2D gameplay is one of the best metroidvania playstyle out there, if you genuinely dislike it you probably just don't like that gameplay style.

Can anyone explain what this is that I just dug myself into?

>>183311315
I'm not arguing for minecraft, like I said I haven't played it in years. I did enjoy it though- and I liked many of its core elements like its focus on surviving. As far as I remember this game doesn't have that, there is no farming, hunting, or eating just to survive. I know I sound like I'm defending minecraft, but I am simply comparing it to something that I like.
>Games biggest charm is it's sense of scale and how packed with content it is
I got exactly the opposite feeling. Another thing that minecraft did right and this game didn't. It feels like you can walk from one end of the map to the other in a few minutes at most. You never get a sense of gigantic scale because of the zoomed in 2D screen.
>It's 2D gameplay is one of the best metroidvania playstyle out there, if you genuinely dislike it you probably just don't like that gameplay style.
I've never really thought about it that way but I guess you are right. However, I do like old-school metroid and I do like 2D games, but like I said before the controls in this game make that style of play complete shit. The mouse and keyboard does not do it any favors. Wouldn't you agree that the pickaxe and sword swinging is imprecise and feels like shit? It even makes placing blocks a pain.

>>183312396
Pull it. Maybe you'll become king.

>>183312560
>Wouldn't you agree that the pickaxe and sword swinging is imprecise and feels like shit? It even makes placing blocks a pain.
>put arrow where you want to mine
>it mines that exact block
>put arrow where you want to place block
>it places it in that exact spot
???

>>183312659
you're retarded.

>>183312560
>its focus on surviving. As far as I remember this game doesn't have that
Of course, Terraria isn't a survival game it's more of an open-world adventure game, you explore and find new things.
The good thing about it is that it offers you new things, and by new I don't mean a new weapon that has better stats, fundamentally new things that will give your adventuring and a new way of doing things. You'll get a grappling hook, an item that let's you jump twice, rocket boots, shield that let's you dash into enemies etc.

>It feels like you can walk from one end of the map to the other in a few minutes at most.
Get a bigger map size if that's how you want it, large is quite... well large.

>There are keyboard shortcuts, ctrl makes it so you can auto mine, you can hover over a block or anything and press and hold shift to use the appropriate item, for example if hold shift while hovering over nothing you can hold up a torch to light up your way.

>Wouldn't you agree that the pickaxe and sword swinging is imprecise
It's not really imprecise... if you click over a block it breaks that exact block, if you mean that it's hard to hover over every single block you can use shift button like I mentioned.

>>183313798
That video made me realize somrthing:
Crimson is a lot better for blind LPs than corruption.
While corruption is mostly just creepy and unsettling, crimson can be actually scary
Crimson enemies are a lot more "HOLY SHIT THE FUCK IS THAT" than corruption ones.
And especially the hearts.
Shadow orbs are just "what?". You won't feel anything about it except maybe "this looks kinda mysterious".
But if you find a heart, you're gonnna be spooked.
"Did I just found a big floating heart? In a cave? And it's BEATING???"

The only moment where corruption wins over crimson is that EoW looks and feels scarier than BoC

>>183315640
I've been playing this game since it came out and I've never even been close to being spooked by anything in this game. Sounds like you're just a pussy.

How to run Terraria at higher framerates on a shitty PC/laptop:
>Fullscreen
Windowed mode means Windows has to display everything else as well as the game, which can cause slowdown.
>Turn resolution down
1024x768 isn't that bad, I've played it on 800x600 just fine
>Use Retro or Trippy lighting
Blockier but faster lighting
>Turn off Effects and Backgrounds
No hazy effect for Underworld, waves in water, and backgrounds can cause slowdown on your inventory and menus
>Frame Skip On
Slow motion mode if this isn't on, better to have it either on or on Subtle for toasters/potatoes.
>Open Task Manager and change Terraria's priority to High.
Makes your computer focus more on providing resources for the game than on other programs.
>Close other programs that eat up resources that your PC doesn't need
Close internet browsers, leave Discord calls, stop watching porn on another screen, etc. Make sure not to close anything important or integral for your system.

>copypasta please

I run this game on laptop with 2.1ghz dual core integrated, 3gb RAM, 256mb video memory, with two 1080p monitors hooked up due to a dead screen. Runs 30-60fps just fine with those settings.

the mod is indeed shit and plainly incorrect on many points (particularly tooltips), but this one is correct. wyverns drop that shit.

suggestion: get fargos mod if you don't have it already, and make the battle cry/spawn booster item (needs a shitload of battle potions and water candles). the 10x spawn rate makes it a lot easier to farm some of that shit.

mechanic is a _cute_

I wish there was a cute Miner gal NPC that sold pickaxes and minecarts. They put so much emphasis on minetracks and then they only gave us two minecarts, it feels like a waste. Maybe she can sell TNT with a delayed detonator too, like where you can see the fuse get lit and burn up towards the explosives.

what the hell else do you want out of a minecart anon

>>183419607
I dunno, make them do more fun stuff like mounts do. Make minetracks do more fun stuff. I want loops. Turn this game into Line Rider 2.0

What do you guys think of the house I just built?
Not complete of course, I need to add some more rooms. Probably to the roof

I tried to theme most of the rooms to the occupant, but I still need to do the dwarf

I can see your efforts to try and make something interesting, but you've put it all in what is essentially a giant brick box.

This. Try making separate houses

Problem with that is
Do I want to block off 20 doors next time there is a blood moon

Or just one?

That sounds like effort

I tried to make it look less like a block and more like an actual house with the final rooms. I probably failed.

Need to sort out the top floor NPCs when they arrive. I know the tax collector is going into the bone room but I don't know about the others.

Enemies only spawn around your screen. Just keep all other housing a small distance away.

One thing you could try to improve is the walls,
Dont use a single type of wall for the whole building, start changing it a little bit for each room using woods and stuff, and maybe add a window here and there. I think with some time invested you can make it look really good.
Check the walls in this pic for example

How old is this? I thought He actually got banned from playing Terraria. Or was it just the devs telling him to stop playing that day?

>>183408662
Whats the story behind this?

>>183362892
Already rolled in-game, rolling now for a second gimmick that isn't available in the mod

>>183334123
i had to reinstall terraria but something weird is happening, when i join it says the largeworldneabler isn't compatible with tmodloader 1.0.10.2, but when i downgrade it to 1.0.10.1. it just says it's not the version the server uses.

Any new servers up today for this weekend?
