Crimson vs. Corruption

Which do you prefer and why?

>>572217220
>offmodel garbage

I'm having an argument with some guys on /v/, and I figured I'd ask you guys:

Does it make Terraria bad if there are multiple ways to beat a boss? Like there are multiple speedrunners who can beat the moonlord without buffs or health or armor, and apparently this makes Terraria a bad game.

I think /v/ is a bunch of retards, but figured I'd get your thoughts on this.

>>572220535
I can see what the argument could be, as there are times in games where letting the player have too many options is taking away from the game and being more limited leads to an overall more enjoyable experience.
That said, no, Terraria is not one of those times, being able to beat anything with anything as long as you have the ingenuity/patience/skill is great and should be expected of a sandbox. It's why things like the Water Bolt and Meteorite changes are bad and understandably disliked.

>>572222598
Yeah, that's what I was thinking. I agree with nerfs like the "fag throne" that trivialized the moonlord fight back in 1.3, but I also miss the old reaver shark.

>>572223160
The Reaver Shark getting a nerf was understandable as it was the best one Pre-Hardmode, but it only needed to be slightly weaker than Molten to have you mine Hellstone for Cobalt/Palladium, not nerf it to complete uselessness.
This isn't like a weapon where it being weaker is fine if the player is okay with dealing suboptimal damage, it's a pickaxe, you can't use it at all to mine some things. You will need to get a Demonite/Crimtane pickaxe which is easier to obtain than the Reaver Shark. I miss my shark friend.

>>572220535
i think that the fact you can beat bosses with anything (while also depending on your skill level) is actually great, and maybe one of the few good things terraria does to avoid forcing players to use a wiki (?
t. compulsive loadout guide consumer

>>572224143
at least it's basically like a bone pickaxe in terms of mining speed that you can get more consistently

Based. The game is suddenly way more interesting when you need to weigh risk reward and be cautious. It's like the awesome parts of hardcore without your entire 100 hour world being over from one mistake. I can't play softcore anymore it's so boring. Cross Necklace is fuckin godlike

I seem to recall that if you named your character a specific dev name, that the fairy light pet would always spawn as one of the specific colors (pink, green, blue), but I don't remember which for either the name or the color.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about? I know this is already the case for the colors of the Last Prism and the Starlight's particle effects.

I want to play Terraria, but ever since I beat the Moon Lord in master mode it seems kinda pointless.

>>572220535
>having more ways to do something instead of having one way to do things otherwise you're screwed is bad
What?

>>572266151
some people prefer a linear structure so that there's only one way to beat something
some people prefer a free-form structure so that there's multiple ways to beat something

an example would like saying that dark souls is a bad game because you can use magic spells to defeat bosses with projectiles, instead of only being able to defeat them with melee weapons, because the magic spells allow you to not engage with the boss' moveset

>>572217220

>>572281206
I wonder what the platform inside the NPC living space is for, as it's not necessary

I burned out on mastermode

>>572295770
>menacing reforges
warding is always better, i always find myself having an easier time in bossfights when i survive for longer and take less damage, instead of having my 20dmg gun have a boost of 20% in damage

>>572296116
nta but makes sense if they are fighting daytime EoL. I've never got Terraprisma in mastermode desu

>>572297450
oh yeah that makes more sense, i was talking about general bossfighting, not no-hit runs

>>572224143
>only needed to be slightly weaker than Molten
I disagree
the revear shark and crate changes did nothing but remove ways to play
>but it ruins progression
there isn't a single new player who's going to ruin their experience by specifically going to the ocean to fish up a pickaxe and then waste a ton of time fishing crates to unbox a gorillion titanium from for an instant armor set as soon as the wof is dead to gigarush mechs, same with the king slime soul farm strat
while the change to how cor/crim convert the jungle and altars no longer randomly spawning evil/hallow in your world are great and lessen the need to rush stuff the fishing nerf is still lame as hell
a cool alternative progression gone up in smoke because people weren't enjoying LMAO BOULDER!! enough

>>572304648
I don't even understand the fishing crate change
Like, you can just fish the crates in hardmode instead of pre-hm, what's the difference? You're gonna be spending the same exact amount of time fishing. Was it because they thought that players were going to have to put themselves in more danger in HM to fish hardmode crates? Because you can just... make safe fishing spots in pre-hm... and then use them in HM.

>>572306152
Evil spread is the only thing I can think of that could be the reason.

>>572312689
the 30min it takes to fish up enough ore doesn't even let the evil spread in any significant quantity

>>572297450
>>572298071
The problem is I stubbornly refused to progress untill I killed her. Eventually I got frustrated, rolled a classic world to see if I could get lucky enough to killer her in a shorter fight, which I did, but obviously it doesn't count and here I am

I can't seem to prevent my NPCs from opening the doors and letting eyeballs into my floating base, even after blocking the outside of the door with rope so that they can only open inwards, which works perfectly fine for preventing zombies and whatnot from breaking the doors down

while the vertical 5x12 commieblock is a classic leaving the bottom platform doors like that will allow your NPCs to wander around and clump together

Nice! The only criticism I have is that the wrench kind of blends into the mechanic's jumpsuit, but that's a nitpick. Sick build also, very creative use of armor stands.

>>572429156
I see what you mean. I just couldn't figure out a great solution for it.
>yellow wrench blends in with yellow armor, make it red
>red/yellow/purple color combo looks awful, make the jumpsuit red
>jumpsuit now blends in with wrench

>>572432238
Well, you could always make her jumpsuit grey, grey goes with everything, but then you're adding colors that aren't iconic to the NPC...
Her original shoes are blue, maybe a blue or bluish-grey jumpsuit? Idk, I'm just spitballing, like I said it's a minor nitpick of a complex issue; art do be hard.

I think what your town needs to feel more connected is some kind of elevated railway connecting the hill district to the lower district, maybe suspended from a few floating islands and clouds so that the supports that would otherwise have to be connected to the ground don't tarnish the nice landscape you've made

Good night

Man, I'm getting a hankering for another playthrough, seeing you guys post all of your builds.

The strange thing is, I kinda also want to try out Calameme and Wrath of the Gods again. I know I swore off of it last time, because my playthrough ended a bit abruptly, but I feel like I didn't give it a fair chance. Plus, admittedly my install was really bloated. Had both Spirit and Spirit reforged installed, and the two constantly clashed in world gen, so maybe this run will be better.

What do you fellas think?

>>572522748
I've barely played calamity but I didn't like how hard it seemed to clash with normal terraria. Does that mod lend itself to slow build-y playthroughs? Everything I see about it like the instant respawns and 8 gorillion bosses and insanely powercrept weapons makes me think you'd be better with thorium if you wanna play with mods

>>572524254
Well, I'm not realy interested in Calamity itself, but I wanna take another crack at Wrath of the Gods, which needs Calamity.

I was doing something similar with my relic/trophy rooms but yours looks amazing. The hallowed furniture and blocks fit so well.

>>572522748
One taste of Calashitty and Fargo together made me stray away from mod combos unless they have colaborative content(Like Spriit and CalFables, pic related I like the relic but boy that shit is huge and the trophy even more) I know Fargo reworks Calamity's bosses and it could be me, but I don't think the weapons and accesories match that nicely? Calamity should be only played with it's own addons and such.
>Spirit reforged
Love that one. Their map revealing pots were so damn helpful. I could never get their nice biome generations though.

>>572525703
Thanks man, I like your trophy room too, it's nice and rustic. The relics do clash a bit with the simpler block choice though, no getting around that. It bugs me how gaudy they are sometimes. That silver one looks fuckin sick though
