calamity is bloatslop that adds 20,000 useless weapons to pre-moon lord terraria which already has 10,000 useless weapons

what's the point of post moon lord weapon when you already ran out of boss?
>>
>>683258736
calamity is shit and it might as well be the exact definition of quantity > quality
most of the mod is slop and the only thing it does right is add in terra blades for other damage types
>>
>>683271596
This. It's genuinely baffling how the game not only adds bloated crafting trees for its own items, but then goes on to complicate crafting trees for the base game. The Zenith continues to be a huge thorn in Fabsol's side, so much so that he made it so you can't craft it unless you beat all of his superbosses first.
>>
>>683272127
Is the Zenith even good in comparison to the bullshit in his mod? I mean it's great in base terraria, but calamity has multiple tiers of difficult bosses above Moon Lord.
>>
>>683263763
The same can be said to Thorium, though.
>>
>>683272463
Last time I saw a video on it the Zenith was viable up to DoG

>boss that has a literal meltdown if you have a Rod of Harmony in your inventory

>the mod's boss design is dogshit anyway which makes their whining about balance look all the shittier
Every single post-Plantera vanilla boss is better and more fun than the calamity edits + custom bosses before Plantera, the faggots wanted Terraria to be a bullet hell so bad it's not even funny.
Mutant mod mogs every single boss despite Fargo giving you all sorts of broken bullshit like soul accessories.

Reddigit doesn't care about balance which is why they give you an infinite flight accessory pre moon lord and made the phoenix blaster spammable. Thank god for Fabsol fixing their game for free while making plebs and casuals seethe other a mod that they aren't forced to play but want to cheese the well-designed bosses with Reddigit jank instead of getting gud.
>>
>>683273204
>Second most powerful boss in the game
Yharim is so much easier than the DOG or OC Donut Steel it's not even funny.
>>
>>683273254
infinite flight is perfectly fine
fagsol's boss design is shit and anyone who has played the game as true melee can attest to this with how many bosses like to spastically move around, on top of multiple bosses having garbage projectile sprites to the point that several boss attacks blend into the background

The abyss is conceptually really cool, and implemented fairly well.

How do I tell when I should be doing Calamity content? So far all I've seen is these flying spaceships that drop Wolf-something metal. First time playing it, haven't fought the Eye or Skele-literallyimpossible yet.
>>
>>683278871
boss checklist mod can you give you a rough order to do stuff in.
>>
>>683279016
Nice, I'll check that out.
>>
>>683276354
What am I missing with Starbound? I've tried it multiple times over the years, from early access launch, to regular gameplay, to playing with Frackin Universe.
It just never clicked for me, is there something I'm doing wrong?
>>
>>683278871
>>683279016
What the other anon said, honestly boss checklist is almost a mandatory mod to use when you're playing mods.
Without it you'd probably miss a bunch of content, either that or you'd be glued to the wiki. Have fun, I've done 3 Calamity playthroughs and had a blast each time, the early game can be a bit overwhelming but after you get past, you're golden.
>>
>>683276354
It should be Modded Minecraft > Infinite power gap > Minecraft
>>
>>683279193
No, don't fall for the terrira vs starbound bait
>>
where's the final update?
>>
>>683278871
Well Wulfrum is one of the first sets you can get from Calamity. It's really good early game, especially if you're doing a summoner playthrough
>>
What are some good Terrarialikes? I've only been able to enjoy Keplerth so far, despite it being barely half a step above Starbound in the fun factor.

>>683279193
>>683279559
The way I see it is you should play Terraria if you want something more active to play since it's more about killing enemies and such while you should play Starbound if you want to do something more relaxing, primarily building though.
>>
>>683279670
almost two years ago
>>
>>683279193
frackin universe is dogshit unless you're the type of retard that likes Minecraft mods that bloat the game by making you farm twigs to craft sticks to craft wood to make a workbench
starbound however CAN be fun if you use non-shit mods like the RPG stats, arcana, qol like storage mods, sxb if you're a coomer
>>
Even vanilla Starbound is better than craplamity.
>>
>>683279193
starbound is closer to 2d minecraft than terraria
but only if you have the manually built spaceships, if you don't then the super base autism is restricted to planets only

>>683278573
Outside of the sulfurous sea, I'm in love with the underwater biomes.
The decision to have everything in the underground sea be non-aggressive is a very nice touch. That with the calming music gives a nice feeling of serenity.
Then as far as the abyss, I think it's fantastic. From the music, the enemies you fight there. I wish you wouldn't run out of breath as fast as you go towards the bottom but I understand why they do it.
Now when it comes to the sulfurous sea I'm conflicted. I love some parts, but others are a touch underwhelming. I'm not a fan of the first tier of acid rain and find it a touch boring. Yet at the same time, I don't mind something like the goblin invasion as much. It probably has to do with how the frogs are stationary and the flying fish are annoying to hit I guess.
>>
>>683278871
I'll be honest, the only good part about calamishart is pre-ml mode content. Don't bother with post-ml content, it's all grindfest. Wanna progress? make sure to sit down through 4 moons event to craft a singular summon item.
>>
raria
>>
>>683280431
While I have the opposite opinion (Post Moonlord>Pre Moonlord) the grinding of the events after defeating The Devourer of Gods is agonizing and dogshit.

>>683280918
Never downloaded wtd do you mean makes you fart, is it fetish shit?
>>
>>683280809
Maybe it's a brain issue on my part, but I'd always do the entire night/half the night. Same with the eclipse. I do think there should be something that either changes them, or maybe it could combine them so you could get multiple of them at once.
A spooky frost eclipse?
>>
>>683280217
Yeah, when Fabsol wants to, he can make a good biome and a very calming atmosphere. I'll even use that music box you start out with in calamity. It's rather calming. Nobody will doubt his affinity to hire good musicians.
>>
>>683281081
you can combine all the jump accessories into one item
that item has all the bonus jumps so it naturally contains the fart in a jar effect
all effects can be individually disabled but anon is too stupid to do that
>>
>>683281081
It's essentially the "whoopie cushion" item and when you use a cloud in a bottle item, there's the fart sound.
>>683280975
>>683281210
Where? I genuinely looked for either the option or a mod. I still want the cloud in a bottle effect though. That was my only major complaint but it genuinely took a shit down my throat I hated it so much
>>
>>683258736
Calamity is the type of mod you get when you're young and you only have like 5 games total. Nothing but bloat to squeeze a hundred more hours out of a playthough.

But I love Terraria, and Calamity gives me more, albeit a different kind of Terraria. Is there some preset limit of hours of enjoyment I don't know about?
My entertainment budget could afford whatever I wanted, but why should I stop if I'm still having fun?

God fucking dammit, no way, I checked that menu on new game and then never checked it again as I got items. Alright, can't fault Fargos for that then. Even if I still don't think it's the correct decision to have the fart effect in the first place.

Is starfury still good? I always felt that item was obscene with how easy it was to get. That was my strat when I played
>>
>>683261220
Cope. The game is impossible to play without Magic Storage.
>>
>>683284646
star fury is still good if you can find one early, but you'd want to get a blade of grass anyway for night's edge
>>
>>683283891
Don't get me wrong, Volcano is still great for boss fighting. There is nothing more satisfying than ramming yourself into queen bee and watch her explodes and burn.
>>683284646
Starfury's still good for exploring, the star projectile is really amazing for lighting up caves.

I hope you got the permission slip bro
>>
>>683285629
i really can't blame you for that.
terraria's greatest sin is how absolutely pigeonholed you are into a few very specific accessories at the expense of everything else. boots are mandatory, wings are mandatory, ankh shield is mandatory, if you're playing on expert then shield of cthulhu is mandatory... you get fuck all slots to actually have fun with.

Why are do you keep making the same thread every day?

for me it's the roguelike mod
>>
>>683287649
That mod has enormous potential, the environments are gorgeous, but using the same pistol the entire time starts to drag a bit.
I'm excited to see where it goes

>>683287649
It took people 13 years to realize that terraria works really well with roguelike mechanics.
>>
>>683278871
if you can't even kill skeletron, you're too bad to win the game.
>>
>>683288020
No it didn't. Hardcore mode and Medium core have been in the game for years. And that's the basic rougelike experience. Die and then have to start from scratch.

Does Terraria have an end goal? I want to try this game, but no end goal seems pointless to me. I love RimWorld / Factorio because they have something to put an end to your game.

yes dude, it's essentially a shump/light gear focused rpg boss hunt. i got it for the summer sale it has blown me away with how fun it is. way better than what i expected 2d minecraft
>>
>>683289678
Yes, RimWorld / Factorio have an option to build a rocket and take off a planet thus ending your game.

>>683289719
But if you kill him the game doesn't end, right?
>>
>>683289756
Beating the moon lord gives you the end credits.

How can you be this autistic? Just stop playing the game?
