I was told of a update after not playing it for a week. I rushed to a Wiki to see what prizes I was about to get for being a player. As I read I found some neat things & some things I didn't like.
I do like making things but not having a use for them can bum you out. However, look at it this way, theres a ton of crap in Sims games that are just there to look pretty, why not Terraria? So I read on. Looking into the things I do use or wonder I was disapointed. Healing potions are the main thing in the game. They cut the power & time of use of this item. I don't like I have to follow this rule in WoW, why would I like it any more in a 2D game with no healers. Then reading the upgrades to the Dungeons were a bit heavy for the lack of stuff worth the danger in said area.
Going 2 man into this place is bad enough but getting clocked by 8-10 undead the moment you hit a floor is a bit crazy. Now try that x2. Still not worth the stuff you may find there. It didn't matter I had 16 keys before I left it in a explosion of guts, it was the fact I never found a chest to use the keys on.

If you are lucky enough to have a map generator to locate the chests on said map, you will need even more luck to get to them. I suggest having a full out team to raid this area. Even with good gear & nice weapons, your going to get your butt handed to you.

Now they still haven't fix the issue of knowing where to go fromt he start. It's too easy to get lost in the game. In copper gear ( the lowest you can get with gear on ) you can get from one side of the map to the other with no real issue, if your cleaver enough. This doesn't mean you should or will live long but it can be done. After the normal digging you can get to gold & them wonder what to do. Thank the gods for Wikis, am I right?

So once I had the Jungle area as my new home away from home but now thats been changed. Roses are no longer needed for gear & the bugs got an upgrade. Not like they really needed it before.
Over all there are more things to kill you with just as much max life you had before, things got nerfed & things trying to kill you got buffed. Also to my dismay weapons & gear got changed. The weapon I had before that did a nice 23 dmg now does 3-5. A very bad upgrade I must say & now I have it sitting in a chest when I want to grow grass.... here bunny, bunny, bunny!

I think me & my man at arms wanted was a new boss to kill. We killed everything & even though I die to mass mobs, thats not what we really wanted. I like challange but I don't like it when I die from mass mobs or by a ooze that makes me bounce back into lava with a lucky hit.


I think most of the fun is the building part of the game, still. If you want to try new things I suggest designing a place that can stand a goblin army that you can defend with little to no issue.


Over all I say the update this time round should of kep things light. They may change things over time but we shall see. For now I will look forward to building, mining & the over all chest plundering I can allow my self before the mass deaths drive me to the poor house.


Happy hunting.
