Reading Terraria's Negative Reviews (So You Don't have To) 

Yeah no huge disagree even if it’s absolute dogshit with horrible monetizing I’ll still count it as a game if last of us part 2 counts ow counts

it was free for most of its lifetime so id say it doesnt count

Nice job mate, just good luck if you decide you want to try modded terraria after you finish your main game

And what job is this if I may ask? Because 12 hours does not sound real.

@@kartr9545 Havent really worked much have you? haha From working in the service industry, warehouses, construction, medical field, even in the IT and software development industry are 12 hour shifts quite common and sometimes mandatory. I'd guess theyre in construction or an electrician since theyre out and about a lot as they said and they usually work those hours and extra, but thatd be just a guess.

@@kartr954512 hours is pretty common, I’m an electrician and that’s a normal day for me.

I personally never thought that Minecraft was too easy, and I find that the changes to the game that are just intended to slow the progression of the player down, is rather bland and lazy. Instead, I think that they should add more late game content to the game instead. What are your thoughts?

@@EzEssenceminecraft is so easy what? You musta not played it for to long here’s how to beat the game easily Get a skeleton spawner farm it for levels strip mine for diamonds and iron kill endermen at the same time go to the nether on the same seed in creative (copy your world and put it on creative) find a fortress go back to your survival world go to that fortress get blaze rods make eyes of ender then bam basically done you can kill ender dragon with beds or bring snowballs for the big healing thingies and make a enderman farm while you’re there Then farm all the endgame loot you could also find an ancient city and get full diamond armor asap

@@bahhumbug5467 You don't really just "get a skeleton spawner", as well as endermen being rather rare on the surface, let alone finding one while strip mining (caving would probably be doable). The nether info is all good, and same with the end info, but I find it hard to believe you've played the game much if you don't know that the "big healing thingies" are called end crystals. I feel like you've only ever beaten the game once based off of the skeleton spawner comment alone. Also it can't possibly be that hard to write using proper English (idc about capitalization, but like, use commas and the correct words man, cmon).

@@wasenttaken9599 I have a level 6 in english and a level 6 in writing I took a test for college I just don’t care cause this is a damn comment section bro If proper english matters in a comment section so should actually being good at minecraft if you’re crying about it Hopefully my tips n tricks help other people Also in the nether to find alotta netherite fast mine with beds but make sure you put a block between the bed and yourself so you don’t die This guy above me is shit at the game so don’t listen to him to find a spawner have a set seed, strip mine, or find a cave spanwers and buried treasure are every mf where so you’ll find one quick doesn’t matter if it’s a skeleton or zombie spawner If it’s a zombie spawner you can trade rotten flesh for emeralds so that’s nice bones for bonemeal plus enchanted bows with skeles

The game was harder back then, now with the nether update that added the ''enderman'' biome makes it so easy to farm enderpearls, as well the shield made the game easier too

I've never died to a rolling cactus, thought they were easy to avoid

For me it's bats. Fuck bats.

@@TheKirBoi you think bats are bad, trying farming bees for so long you killed 400. And still no bee wings

tbh the torch mechanic sonds good to me. Rewarding these people that pay enough attention to details to actually use fitting torches is cool, but there really shouldnt be a luck decrease when you use other torches.

@@ananaskarandash1060that’s how the mechanic works now, which imo is pretty decent. As mentioned in the video, when it was first introduced you were penalized for using the wrong torch (even basic torches were wrong in most biomes) in 90% of the game, and the game never told you this. It was definitely worth changing.

@@ananaskarandash1060There is no way to tell you’re being rewarded or punished, unless you expect players to chart their mob drops and find an upward trend from the correct torches nearby lol. Luck is just one of those things that you couldn’t even look up because you don’t know it exists.

They really shouldn't have nerfed the Reaver Shark like Sure it's cute to mine and do the slow early game progression the first time, but after that it's just tedious. Same for the hardmore ores, God it's so boring.

Well yes that's why they are complaining

@@bigman-oe7df a third of that is enough to tell whether a game is ass or not. If you're gonna not recommend after playing the game for hundreds of hours, it definitely is because a single feature is bugging you and your review should not be taken into consideration... Unless you detail why the bad rating.

@@RealValkor There’s also the possibility that a recent update completely ruined your experience with the game (prime example, Cube World’s release), but that’s unlikely to be the case since the last few updates have been amazing. Yeah there were some controversial elements, such as torch luck, Reaver Shark nerf, bomb-proof meteorite, underwhelming Master mode, and now the Terrablade rework, but all in all the changes and additions have been great. Honestly, it’s just nice to get new content after a 4 year drought.

@@SmoothTurtle840 most of the changes have been for the better though, for example reaver shark being too overpowered and Terra blade being reworked was great to add more variety to the melee class, considering it was being known in the community as arguably the worst and most boring class to be. Most of these features don't impact enough to make me change my view on the game honestly, and some updates brought so many good features that I can't see myself playing older versions anymore (like smart doors and tile replacing).

@@RealValkor Exactly. 1.4, 1.4.1, 1.4.2, and 1.4.4 have added so much QoL it is extremely hard to go back to older versions. And I do agree that nearly all the changes that have been made so far were good ones, particularly in the balancing department.

I was never into the building, but it was also very clear that it wasn't seen as secondary by the devs, which I think is great

the last part of the game just feels like a boss rush, i almost never finish my playthrouhts (600+ hrs xd) because of this

@@htwo1 the biggest oversight is that you can't have inverted stairs.

I don't see what's bad with it being focused on combat? That's like not wanting combat in a FPS game. Makes no sense.

@@jorgeddls thats the entire point at that part of the game tbh your at the end road theres not much you can do unless you a builder and this only really matters if "beating all the bosses" is your main selling point

He really failed to mention properly why the original torch luck was so bad. And thats because you always have like a max stack of normal wood torches that you use absolutely everywhere because they are easy and cheap and the game punished you for using them

Like, how in the world is someone meant to know how go get to the nether or end, there's only community knowledge for that

Ocram was elite

Starting on console, let alone on the Xbox, was such a trip. I loved console 360 so much, but then I switched to PC, and nearly 4500 hours later I can honestly say that I would not go back to console sadly. I will always love the feeling of discovering some new item or boss that I didn't even realize was a thing, but I'm just so disillusioned with the way PC works, and knowing the stats behind bosses and weapons with the search of the wiki. I think the internet detracted from my experience, which hurts to say, but I will still always adore and love 360 Terraria 1.1, the good old days, when you could still house NPCs in the corruption

@@luis-sophus-8227 Especially when it's something trivial like finding out much more ore you need for an armor set.

@@purpleguy5226 it isn't luck in the first place lmao. Yeah it's called luck, but it's actually just changing the % for item drops, thats not luck.

@@purpleguy5226 if torches can changing it without telling you it even exists it's not luck

the wiki is so useful, i really recommend using it anytime youre stuck

My wiki: The guide lol, If its in game everything is possible my dude, Lets not be too lazy.

The wiki should've just move to the guide's house I made for him lol.

it is a bad mechanic. the things that give you luck take more time to get than if you just spent that extra time grinding.

@stoopid apples Not necessarily, some luck bonus like torches and gnomes last forever (since they are placeable) The only real hard to find luck items would be Lantern Nights and Golden Ladybugs (from the wiki, the things that give Luck are Ladybugs, Torches, Luck buff, Lantern Night, Gnomes and the new shimmer gives luck if you throw coins in it) still a weird mechanic but doesn't penalize you that much (at least, not anymore lol)

​@@nothingtoseehere9648 Gnomes are the only thing worth adding to a farming setup. Torches usually take more time and effort than they're worth for the luck bonus they give. And both provide so little bonus that unless you already had the torches or gnomes spare, you probably wouldn't go searching for them because you're better off spending that time farming. Not only are ladybugs and golden ladybugs difficult to find, but you also only get a luck bonus if it's a naturally spawning ladybug. That means no statues, and no released ladybugs. This means that unless you happen to come across one, there is literally no point in trying to get a naturally spawning ladybug to be in your farming setup. Golden ladybugs are even worse. And for the bonus that a golden ladybug gives, a 10% drop chance moves up to less than 12.5%. If you killed 100 of this mob, on average you would get 3 more of the drop. But instead, you could spend the time you wasted getting a naturally spawning ladybug and probably double the number of kills you got for that particular mobs, thus doubling your drops. This is a recurring theme with luck. Lantern night is random, except when killing bosses, and therefore you can't just use it when setting up a farm. You'd have to get lucky. On the otherhand, you can get stuff like blood moons to double or triple the number of mobs you kill, thus being a much better use of your time. Shimmer is ok if money means absolutely nothing to you. You could set up an automatic system to chuck the coins you correct straight into shimmer, or something like that. Except that would provide you with less luck than the ladybugs, raising your 10% chances to just 11%. Thus, once again you are far better just spending that time doing more farming. The Luck buff is the worst offender of all. Pink pearls, for example, have a 1% catch rate, and black pearls have a 6% chance. They both provide less luck than the ladybugs do, and their luck decreases over the course of the potion. So the pink pearl potion would give you 5 minutes of that 10% chance increased to 12%, then 5 minutes of 11%, and 5 minutes of about 10.5%. This is for an item that you could spend hours fishing for and never even get. It's so absurdly stupid, you could literally kill thousands more of the mob you're farming in the time you waste getting better luck for 5 minutes. In conclusion, luck is worse than mastermode at being one of the most poorly thought-out systems ever introduced into Terraria. Luckily, it's so trivial and unimportant that it doesn't matter that it's pointless.

@@stoopidapples1596 I am not really sure what you mean by torches taking more time and effort than they're worth, they are not that hard to make and the Torch Gods favor automatically changes it for you I agree with the ladybug, they are not only rare and have weird spawn conditions but you cannot collect them and have to pray to even see a golden ladybug, so much work is not worth it, you'd probably get the item before you kill the golden ladybug lol I agree with everything else, Luck doesn't necessary hurt you in the long run and even just setting up biome torches everywhere while naturally playing can mean the difference between getting a rare item and not getting an rare item The fact they spent this much time on a mechanic that no one understand or uses is absurd, the wiki for Luck looks like a fucking redstone minecraft tutorial 😂

Idk about you guys, i have got 2000+ hours in terraria and most of the time i wasnt doing anything to increase my luck still got through the game countless of times and i wasnt complaining how unlucky i was.

@@aprettydumbperson was that before journeys end was released on mobile? Edit just checked: it was removed in journeys end, might have been reintroduced in labor of love tho.

I had a similar experience with this game. My friend recommended the game to me like 5-6 years ago, and then acted as my tutorial. I really didn't know what to do, and the game kinda sucked because I was playing on mobile, so after a while, and accidentally selling the Vampire Knives my friend gave me to the Mechanic, I stopped playing it. then like a year ago, I heard about the 1.4 update, then started playing it again, got it on my pc, and now I have 923 hours in the game.

I was a lot younger back then, I also started in 1.2 and found it to be a good game, but for a long time I had no idea how to progress. For months I was stuck with like cactus armor until my friend who was a bit more acquainted with the internet helped me along. I still suck at like dodging and aiming and stuff.

if you guys ever want to introduce a friend to terraria start a multiplayer world where everyone starts off fresh with nothing, half the fun is lost if you introduce them to a hardmode world and just immediately give him some gear and tell him to try to fight a mech boss

its a double edged sword honestly, because obviously if a random noob fishes once and finds something that he can skip basically all of prehardmode with then it would be bad and honestly undermine the entire experience for a beginner, possibly even making them think the game is too easy. but at the same time its nice to have alternate paths to progression for people who have played for a long time and are bored of the EOC - EOW - skeletron - WOF progression style

Funny thing, I enjoy the early pre hard mode the most. I think I just love the exploration

Hm? For me the beginning of a new playthrough is actually the best. Finding out what kind of world you got and stuff.

Prehardmode is the only thing stopping me from playing this game 24/7

The slowest areas in my opinion are early pre hardmode before first boss, and when you mine hardmode ores in early hardmode

I agree, prehardmode is terrible just because the accesories are very hard to get, especcialy with how unlucky i am. (I spent 2 days looking for cloud in a bottle in FTW+Master mode world, without it i was litteraly going mad)

I thought I was the only person who uses the guide since it's easier than looking it up on the wiki.

@L I don't think that is necessary, the guide show you recipe is all that matter. Also, the game shouldn't always tell you everything's requirements and what to do. But to be fair I felt like the Guide need to hide some recipes and reveal them based on world progression. It looks kind of odd when he can show you things like Zenith crafting recipe right off the start of the playthrough.

I don't know if its just coincidence or not but if you make a big grid of square rooms that are all connected by doors and platforms, (just a big square of interconnected generally equally proportioned rooms) and have all the npcs living in that grid, my npcs at least, dispersed into a "circle" on the outermost edges of the grid...

the only thing I hate about npc happiness is lots of server players don't know about it therefore messing up the happiness that I carefully made

The luck mechanic as it is is 90% pointless. It's only really worth putting a gnome down to slightly increase your drop chances, and maybe throwing coins into shimmer if you are spending a while farming, because all the other possibilities for luck literally take more time for you than just spending that extra time grinding a bit longer. Like the pink pearl for example, you can spend an hour fishing and still miss out on it, and the buff you get from it will only increase a 10% chance to roughly a 12% chance. So if you killed 100 of that mob, you would get 2 extra items on average. But you could also most likely just kill an extra 100 of that mob in the time it took you to get the pink pearl, meaning that you would get double the amount of items. If it's a rarer item, say the rod of discord, then you're still better off giving yourself way more opportunities to get the rod, rather than increase your base chance by an extremely minuscule amount. Cannot believe that people have let the devs get away with this one, luck is garbage and needs to be considerably changed if they want it to have any amount of influence on things.

actually most negative reviews are losers complaining that there is no sex in the game

Some people play the game different and focus on different aspects
