HEROGMR 43 ya lol first time I went there I got destroyed but my curiosity made me keep going back and kept getting me killed and I lost more and more coins😭
@@DeepdelverChespin lmao yeah, i remember my first time seeing a blood crawler it was horrifying, so i turned on autoswing and held down my muramasa to kill any crawlers before i see them or they can hit me lol
Imagine if the Crimson was real. You're walking in a beautiful forest, taking a peaceful stroll to explore while some peaceful slimes bounce their way by you. As you continue to walk through the forest, you smell a FOUL stench. You look around, but, you don't see anything that could be producing the smell. But as you walk further, the smell gets worse. You keep walking. It gets worse. The area starts to smell like a strange scent of iron. As you keep walking through this forest, a drop of blood drips from one of the leaves onto your face. You keep the pace, and the blood dripping increases in frequency, as the smell is almost unbearable. Eventually... the trees are soaked. The grass soak your footwear in blood, as each step gives a *squish* sound. Torn and lone eyeballs torn in the grass, in the trees, dead carcasses. The smell is rotten. And then you see it. You see... The Face Monster's gaping mouth as it simply stands there. Staring at you with its' hollow eyeholes.
It's not going to devour you though since your bigger than the mouth. But i guess the putrid scent, the spiders, and the crimera are what you have to worry about.
@@troyandzachgaming2578 Cursed Inferno got a huge buff in 1.4, now it actually hurts like hell. And Fetid Baghnakhs got nerfed, so corruption mimic loot is now mostly better.
@@xyzzy-dv6te Also, the Brain of Confusion got a huge buff in 1.4! It has a chance to dodge attacks! I forgot the rest since I don't have Journey's End yet.
@@shade159 It's hard to tell if the scarf or the brain is better. Dodge chance is very good, but the scarf's damage reduction is guaranteed and not based on RNG. The brain is most useful when fighting daytime EoL, and in hardmode you can get both evil biomes.
yeah, honestly I just laugh at the face of hell but when you're being chased by a giant flying lobster whilst spiders just attack you but then you hear it, the "erraaa" from the face monster and he's going mach 3 after you than that's bound to be scary.

After reading the lore that the Crimson is basically _alive,_ the beginning of this track now creeps me out. You only hear this music when you enter the Crimson, so it sounds like it's waking up, alert to the presence of something that it hasn't consumed yet.
You now it wants you to be one with it , yeah? Want to be infected? That is Crimson ya know Corruption is all rot and dead , while Crimson is bloodthirsty and alive
@@aaronsound in 2019 re-logic released an official lore, where it is stated that the crimson is alive, the whole biome breathes and wants everything dead
Easily the most frightening music in the game. The Corruption theme is a little foreboding, but this is downright oppressive by comparison. The second you enter the Crimson, it loudly makes you aware of 2 things: it's not a place you want to hang out in for too long, and you are NOT welcome there.
I love how the Crimson doesn't share any soundfonts with any other biomes, as opposed to Corruption sharing them with Purity. It's a little detail to reinforce that the Crimson isn't a naturally occuring thing: it's an otherworldy hivemind that's already conquered galaxies.
Smug Dragon According to the official Terraria lore, the Crimson is a hivemind with a Thanos complex that's already conquered hundreds of worlds before your own.
This track has something special to me. The crimson is the first time I've ever felt fear in a video game. Not some lazy startle by a jumpscare, but actual fear, even though it was just pixels on my tv. When I first entered the biome, I had no idea what it was since this was my first time playing Terraria. I entered it thinking it was some sort of autumn biome, but I quickly realized something was wrong. Very, very, wrong. The grass looked tainted with blood and the hills in the background almost looked made of flesh and teeth. And the pace and tempo of the music was telling me to run. This was no autumn biome. Suddenly, a flying creature and a deformed and bloody character came up to me and started attacking me. I was dead within seconds. Now, I am almost done with the game (Im in the lunar events) But the entire game I knew the crimson was spreading quickly and soon it would be out of my control. And the fear wasn't of the monsters, or the music, but of the crimson. As a whole. And that is fear. (Edit): Just beat moon lord! What an awesome game honestly. If you haven't yet, please play it. It is more than just another survival game.
Just starting up my first game after years of not playing (last time I played was when both the crimson and corruption were apart of the world simultaneously) and I’m honestly terrified of the crimson. I was lucky enough to get randomized with the corruption but the thought of the crimson now (with only my 12 damage lead sword and 4 defense points) horrifies me. Back then I was still a little iffy but didn’t mind it as much since it was mild and only a few face monsters spawned but now when I’m in the corruption everything spawns at once and I’m on the classic/normal
I recently started up a game of Terraria and I chose Crimson (I hate being a mage, but Crimson is more melee) I feel just as tense like when I play Subnautica and im already scared of water irl. My body freezes just from going near Crimson and seeing the monsters approach me, but I gonna try finish that world and move up in difficulty until I have "beaten" all of the difficulties Im taking my time though. I only got the cactus gear and sword, but that makes everything feel less of a struggle and not like im stuck dying every 5 min 😉
I wasn’t scared at all , what is it to be scared when entering the Crimson? Even with the red moon , I make it trough And no, I’m not using cheats and I don’t have anything apart from platinum is it? Sword, Bow, Pickaxe,Axe (actually now I’m using a better sword) And I have a Tungsten helmet and chain mail , so I’m a noob
Bum B Beating Plantera will slow down the spread in a significant amount. You then have a fighting chance of getting the clentaminator to purify the crimson or corruption.
I still remember one of my earliest experiences with the Crimson. I was out caving pretty early in the game, and I ended up jumping down into an open cavern that was pretty big that I hadn't been to yet. Only then did I realize that I was out of torches, and I didn't realize that apparently it bordered right on the Crimson, so I'm in complete darkness, trying frantically to sort through the crafting menu to craft more torches while also trying to figure out where everything even was, and then I hear one of those fucking face monsters snarl at me. I was so damn scared, especially since I didn't know what made that noise yet. I don't remember what happened next, but I remember the feeling. 💀
0:40 is the turning point for me. oh dear god. it's quick and frantic. the high undertones and fast pace give it a tense, creepy feel. this land has no hope, no chance of redemption. it's rotting and decaying. imagine the smell. oh dear god.
How these make me feel 1:37 The crimson is engulfing your world and is taking land very quick 1:46 The hallow is spreading but not quick enough to stop the crimson 1:55 You watch as the last few blocks of purity in your world turn red and your world is now part of the crimson
Tedit: Allow me to introduce my self Tedit has a option which allows you to purify large parts of the world instantly as it is a world editing application. So you can say goodbye to the Crimson after that.
0:01 feels like the uncertainty of entering a new area. You don’t know what to expect, and it’s all new and unsettling to you. 0:45 feels like the slow realization of what this place is. Why is everything so fleshy? Why are there teeth everywhere? Why is there not a single passive creature in this world? What have I gotten myself into?
Honestly the Crimson is full on terrifying. I thought the Corruption was bad; the horrific mutated monsters struck fear into my heart as a child and disturb me to this day, but the Crimson is on another level. When I had almost all of my experience with the Crimson, I was too young to understand how horrifying it is, I thought the Corruption was worse. It’s only now that I rethink my opinions on this, the Crimson is a nightmare. The monsters are deformed and horrible, the music, despite having some really cool moments is creepy as fuck, and the backgrounds with their tattered fleshy trees fit the biome perfectly. The Corruption is bad enough, but the Crimson is clearly the far scarier biome.
Terraria players: well sh*t, it’s been fun guys, gonna go find a zombie arm now, bye Non-terraria players: what, it just some weird music, where are you going?!?
It's obvious to notice the enormous skeleton in the background. A skeleton totally devoid of any flesh of meat. Whatever the enormous beast was, it was right here before something - perhaps a disease, or some monster much worse than it - killed it. The beast's own dead remains seemed to leach into the fertile ground, almost like some kind seed being planted. The area that may have once been beautiful is now utterly disgusting and horrifying. Blood soaks the ground, making every step squish beneath your boots. The trees are a red color, but not like the lovely red of Autumn, but a red like some person's internal organs having been scraped out and onto dead branches. Any monsters in the area have been taken by this horror too. And, deep underground, another monster lurks, the cause of this crimson terror. The one part of the monster that had refused to die, even after creating the evil that plagues your world, and is slowly spreading. Just be sure to stay away from the hearts beneath the crimstone.
This is no cave... as you stand in the chasms of this land filled with arachnid monsters of horror, you can feel vibrations beneath your feet... a strange sound can be heard... almost like a heartbeat...
As you slowly head deeper, the vibrations and sounds get louder and louder... The monsters here are terrifying, but you pay them no attention, as you can now feel the sounds beating faster and faster as you get close to what sounds like the source of the noise...
Maybe it’s Cthulhu? We only see his eyes and brain, and his brain is the boss of the biome, so perhaps his skull is not skeleton but instead the giant skull in the background. The closest thing we have to Cthulhu that might be Cthulhu is Moon Lord.
I think that the crimson was made to give an impression of living blood, flesh and repulsion, while corruption causes an impression of stench, putrefaction and anguish
@@gbepaul1598 The sounds at the beginning are scarier than the other ones to me. The heavy sounds from the middle sounds like despair and horror, while the first ones sounds like you know there's something really wrong with that place and you shouldn't be there.
RE - LOGIC has done a great job with this song and te crimson biome, my friend has even told me that no music has creeped him out as much as this one, and he has played a lot of video games!
@@speedwheel1807 I am literally too scared to pick crimson in terraria cuz of the damn music and the crawlers (cuz of the noise they make) that's why I always go for corruption
I remember my very first play through of terraria and i decided to play crimson without any knowledge of what is was going to be like, and when i first heard the start of the soundtrack it was so scary, and still is.
I've had the evil biome in my first world randomized and it picked the Crimson. And I was unlucky enough that one of the infested parts was about three screens away from my spawn. As a new player, I've gotta say it legit scared the crap out of me when I saw it spread extremely close
Travis Rhodes When I first came in I had just started the game. My sister had all this nice stuff. The after defeating the eye of Cthulhu We got some crimson swords. But now I have a legendary blue phase sword and bee gun
Imagine the very ground you walk on tries to grab you with fleshy tendrils as it tries to absorb you, thr cave entrances are gaping maws with gnashing teeth that bite down should you try and descend into the underground. The whole land itself would lurch and crawl as it feels your presence.
Corruption: Make the World great again Crimson: OUR world. Now starve to death Hollow: The Hollow was An Imposter Mushroom: Yahoo! *starts seeing strange things*
I was that one idiot who enter3d the crimson with confidence. A face monster showed me how foolish I was. Didn't stop me from going back in immediately 50 times. I'll fucking do it again.
On my first day of playing terraria, I was wandering through the ice biome. “Oh look, red ice! That would look cool as decoration!”. I go to mine it and then I hear the scraping sounds and the background changes and I literally had to stop myself turning off the console lol.
I had the exact same experience. I was hanging out in the tundra and this random creature comes out of nowhere and kills me, I go back and the background changes to trees with blood hanging down from the branches and I noped the hell out of there
Bro you're so lucky, in my first world, my crimson completely blocked off my snow biome, and in my second world IT BLOCKED OFF THE JUNGLE AND SNOW BIOME
I love how the music suddenly turns into something epic as something is appearing and becoming bigger, thats what the crimson is, a living place were the creatures come out of a flesh wall or a flesh ground, and suddenly a giant brain come out of nowhere
lmao, when I first saw the crimson background, I was like "ok, creepy, but imma keep going" but after 20 seconds of the crimson theme I was outta there lmao
I remember years ago when I had a world with corruption and my brother had one with crimson. He joined my world for about an hour and little did I know, he burried crimson blocks far from my house. One day I was going to my jungle and started hearing this music.
