Terraria

Double post, I posted before you. :)

Done, my post is gone. Travis did do a good job here. I barely said anything about it.

Trailer breakdown w/ Chippy Gaming: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StRvxSf_sMw Watch this one if you're interested in him pointing out some new things you might not have noticed. Don't watch if you don't want any spoilers at all and want to discover everything new by yourself when it arrives. I don't believe every new thing was revealed even in the trailer. *Also don't continue reading as my comments "may" contain spoilers!*

"The last update?" w/ Chippy Gaming https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfe6amm4zTI Just some thoughts, commentary, and such.

I'm not sure how I feel about some things. They didn't mention the Razor Chroma support that my favorite spoiler contained (which is one of the main reasons I bought this awesome keyboard). Golf? I don't know, maybe after trying it out, I'll like it. Kites? I'm not sure what the point is. New stuff? Heck yeah bring it on! Master Mode? Well I think Expert Mode is hard enough, especially solo, so I'm not sure if I'll ever make it there. Maybe we'll do it on a Cheerful Ghost server. I like the void vault. Travis can tell you from experience, I usually keep a full inventory and often have to warp back home to drop some off, this should be really helpful. New music? Sounds good. Weather? That looks cool, too! I think it makes the game more "alive" or realistic. Otherwise, I'm not sure. Ducks and new summons I'm all for, too. I did read on the announcement page that it should arrive (or "drop" as you guys like to say) "prior to the end of the year." We'll see how that goes. I wouldn't be surprised if it gets delayed, although right now I'm ok with waiting (however I might grow impatient as time moves on and I run out of games I want to play lol).

It's been spoiled for over a year now, it seemed like it was never coming. However, it makes sense now knowing it's the fourth and (apparently or seemingly likely) last update for the game (aside from some minor updates like bug fixes. If it is the final one, I hope they move on to Terraria 2, I'm interested in seeing more Terraria in the future.

What do you guys think about this update? What do you think may lie in store for Terraria's future or is this the end of official (unmodded) Terraria content?

Journey's End will not be releasing this year. https://youtu.be/rVQqTab6EIA

I think I've come to the realization that game release delays are actually good for the game overall. I guess I've gotten more patient with game releases. It's still nice that Re-Logic explained why it's getting delayed. It just makes sense, a delay gives developers more time to perfect the game, perhaps reducing bugs or issues and even adding extra content. So, overall, it's good for the game. I also think my disappointment in some games that I was eagerly awaiting too impatiently kind of gave me a bit of perspective. I don't want to get over hyped for something that might disappoint. Although, I'm sure Terraria's update won't disappoint, but I think it's still good to be patient. In the mean time, I can focus on other games while I wait.

I watched this the other day. It's cool to see as I started playing after 1.2 came out. 1.3 is my favorite update. Also, Chippy's been showing off lots of spoilers for the new update. There's apparently a lot going into it such as new backgrounds, music, a new NPC, and new furniture sets. It's been in development for over a year now, I wonder when it will finally release.

But yeah, I highly recommend Chippy Gaming for Terraria news.

I like that as well, very cool!

:) Yeah I saw this.

Ark: Survival Evolved LOL Terraria, Minecraft. I'm not sure, but I'm still on the lookout for that latest one, whatever it is.

I just finished up a play through of Earthbound again. I usually go through it once every other year, if not more often. :)

> I think I've gotten to a point in life where games aren't very important to me.

For me games are very important, they're my primary source for entertainment. However, I do often get stuck on "what to play next" mode, which sucks. There's not much that I know of that I strongly want to play (except for the new Ark DLC, coming in November). I stopped my Amazon Prime membership and Netflix, so games are pretty much vital to my entertainment. Perhaps I should jump back on Netflix. But yeah, it really sucks being bored and not knowing what game to play next, as a serious gamer.

> I think if I'm in a game mood, I'll probably always go back to FTL and Issac.

Whenever I see you playing something on Steam it's FTL. I believe you're probably far better at it than I am. I feel like I suck at it, so I don't play it much, which is probably also why I suck at it.

I think we're going to need to host another server once the update hits. ;)

Cool and I agree w/ Tim.

Hey look! I've already talked about some of the spoilers we've seen in the last year. I included some good videos from ChippyGaming. :) https://cheerfulghost.com/GregoPeck/posts/3355/1-3-6-spoilers

Whoa! No more NPC constipation! Check out the latest spoiler explained by ChippyGaming. https://youtu.be/sj7x47ul2d0

Ugh, I can't seem to find it. I think he said it was on Tumblr, but I go there and it looks like a mess and I can't find this new spoiler. I trust ChippyGaming. If you want to look for it and verify it, go right ahead. LOL

I'm so glad you created this post, after our discussion a few days ago! As I said, I've been checking every now and then on the status of Otherworld. We haven't had an update about it in about 8 months.

I didn't realize 1.3.5 until you told me about it in that discussion of ours. What has my mind cranking away though is why Redigit is coming back to work on this update. Does that mean Otherworld's development has progressed to the point where the lead developer can take off and work on Terraria's update? What about this update requires the work of Redigit. From what I read in the "upcoming features" section, it doesn't seem like a major update. Since Redigit is working on it, I think there may be something he's doing that they're not telling us yet.

Anyway, I can't wait for our next Terraria server! The memory of us playing 1.3 together is very strong, I think about it very often. We need to take on Expert Mode!

Oh and as for the game, I didn't know about it until you and Jon told me about it. You gave me a copy and I started out in 1.2, but I think 1.3 is my favorite update. Granted, I love what was added after I played it that first time, like fishing! It's exciting that the game is getting more attention and I'm eagerly awaiting the future of Terraria!

Wait, we were *required* to have clothes? Huh. I just always happened to be dressed when we started filming. Good thing you mentioned it; that could've made the last episode awkward.

So, just removing the video aspect of the Roundtable and publishing the audio discussion?

Maybe that's a good question, too. What would you guys like to hear in a CG podcast?

More Terraria content, yay!!!! :)

Update is live!

I did some Googling and found something on the Steam forums:
https://steamcommunity.com/app/105600/discussions/0/224446945208735669/

I haven't checked it out yet, but I'm very tempted to start up a new world, even though a new one isn't required.

I noticed the game got updated recently. I thought about posting about it here. When I saw that no one did, I thought, is no one here really going to mention it? As obsessed as we are with the game. LOL This is definitely one of my favorite games currently. I still want to play it, still love it, and can't wait to play with my fellow Cheerful Ghosts again. It is tempting to start up a new world to check out the new updates since I last played. However, there seems to be more in store! At the end of the post Safeman says, "we will now dive into our next update and get to work on some top secret cross-over action." So, what's coming to Terraria next? I have no idea. Does "secret cross-over action" mean Terraria: Otherworld? I certainly hope so!

>> Yep, holiday CG server is a must!
>Get hype kids.

Looking forward to another CG Terraria server! All aboard the hype train!! I think it should be an Expert Mode server. Pre-made structures would be good to include, too, so we don't have to build a lot. You could copy the arenas and places we had on the last one, that would be cool, IMHO.

> I dig the incremental updates. This one doesn't even require a new world to see the changes. 1.3.2 worlds can get all the goodies.

I didn't realize that, so thanks for sharing. I wonder when the next update will be, what's in it, and how many more updates the game will get, especially before T:O.

>Cross-over action could mean a lot. They have done that in the past with other games like Edge of Space getting a Terraria boss: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5pS6zOG3kc

Yeah I got Edge of Space. Steam says I've played it for a whole whopping 25 hours! I may have to try it out again, I wasn't very impressed with it.

LOL @Travis, you are the cross-posting-of-your-own-posts master! I'm not sure if I remember seeing that interview before, but I think it's amazing that you got to interview him. How'd you manage to get that interview? It is interesting to see it now knowing we're still getting updates.

Yeah. I watched a few of ChippyGaming's videos. 1.4 is in the works!
