Terraria

Anyone played this gem yet? My first thought was MINECRAFT RIPOFF! I thought
I'd stay away from the crafty little thing. Anyway, I was just browsing IGN when- Holy crap!
Terraria got 9.0!

I downloaded the game anyway. Wow! Just wow! It's pretty similar to MC in a lot of aspects, but
that's not necessarily a bad thing. That's like a game being similar to HL2 or Zelda. The fundamental
difference being the combat. It feels like Castlevania mixed with Minecraft, which sounds too good to
be true, but isn't. The combat and mobility feel much more polished than MC. You unlock varieties of weapon
types of different speeds and strengths, upgrade character stats and learn spells. What's even better is that you
can advance through the ages and start unlocking hookshots, guns and lasers.

This game is well worth the £5.99 price tag. I mean, really, what's that? It's the equivalent of 2 less drinks on
a night out. I've yet to see how much replay value I can squeeze out of this, but at the moment, this is much more
fun than MC!

Yes, great game. $10 was a great price for this fantastic game. It has building and mining and crafting, so yeah, it's like Minecraft. The combat, exploration, and awesome loot you can find really set it apart, though. It's similar in some ways, but totally different in enough ways to make it worth buying. I've been playing it with friends, and it's the best time-killer out there.

I'll just stick with Minecraft. I generally don't care for the combat anyways.

I don't like the fact that the player graphics looked like they came from here (metaphorically speaking).
Reminds me of my first Game Maker project.
Which used RPGM graphics in a platformer.

It sucked.

I'd be fully willing to buy it when I'm not ****-*** broke, though.

They literally replaced all the character sprites at the last minute because up until release they were using shitty FF4 edits, and they didn't want to get sued. They should really have hired a pixel artist, the current graphics blow all of the dicks.

It's insanely fun with voice chat and a few friends online. I bought it yesterday and played it for 7 hours
until 4am. I have an exam coming up. I can see where this is going >.<

I seriously want the rocket boots!!

[Archem]

I have Double Jump, and that's it. I'm such a pussy when it comes to exploring too far from my house. I'm too afraid to lose all my money when I inevitably die. I would keep it in a chest, but since I can't find iron ore without venturing too far off, my chests tend to be few and filled with important goodies that I can't have clogging up my inventory.

Archem, you must add me on Steam (tigga17) and we'll destroy everything proper good! Just kitted my
guy out with bronze/silver armour and a silver bow. I want some futuristic weapons, though. Speaking
of going far out, I reached that Netherworld area or whatever it's called and a giant worm killed me about 8 times
2 minutes from my spawn. I spent a good 30 minutes getting my coins back and running home!

[Archem]

Dolphinman? How quirky.

[Avnas]

I played it for about a week and figured I'd done all there was to do.

[GaryCXJk]

The first time I saw it I was like, hmmm, what is this game? Then I watched the trailer, I thought, Minecraft, MUST HAVE GIMMEGIMMEGIMME!!!

Also, when the mod loader gets released I'll be making mods.

[zuhane]

I've just looked and realised I've played this damn game for 15 hours in the past 2 days. That's unbelievably bad!

[Archem]

****, it's Gary. Wow.

This is a lot less frightening than Minecraft, so I usually end up going out quite far. I've gotten a double-jump, super speed boots, a hookshot, quite a bit of gold and silver (bars, not coins), and tons of cash. Seriously, the only penalty for death is a loss of money, so I just store that **** in a piggybank and it's all good.

I still have no clue what I'm supposed to do with Mana.

Certain items use mana as ammo
