Terraria

I own this game on steam. I really like this game, It's well made and the game-play is fun, but It does have major problems though. It has heavy lag spikes, regardless on what PC you have, this has been a problem since 1.3 and it's gotten even worse now as they occur almost every second now. This game doesn't respect your time, the farming in this game is really time consuming, I know that's part of the game's mechanic but they've made it where it would take you 30 minutes to an hour (sometimes much longer) to farm for the items you need. I really like the combining items mechanic, it saves up on inventory space and gives you a more fun experience, but this has a major flaw in that if you want to get the fully upgraded item you've been farming to get from enemies, looting chests and destroying bosses, which again could take you ages because it's an random number generator (RNG), you won't always get the chance to find all the items in a single world. This is my biggest problem with the game as there is a chance you can't complete a lot of upgraded items because if a particular biome or area hasn't generated when you started the world. You can always create multiple worlds but it then takes you out of the immersion of the world in which you started with, the worlds are huge so there really isn't any reason to be able to include every biome/area. They also patched out exploits where you could set up farms for catching bugs and fishes to save time. It's decisions like that, that make me not trust the devs because they know doing it the normal way consists more time in (RNG).

Hate the controls and feels like a mobile game, which is why I got it on my tablet and give that version five stars. It has so many items and you get attacked all the time.

At this introductory price of £1.59/$2.50, you'd have to be a fool to not buy this great sandbox game, even if you have it on other services! It's a side scroller, with depth! Build the tools you need to survive. Explore and collect raw materials. It's GREAT!

very complex not a 2d mind craft as stated multi player big boss battles old school :)

I enjoyed the mining/combat aspect of it but constantly managing a village for vital NPCs just bothers me. It's not fun at all imo and I'd rather get the items they sell somehow else. The setting is a mish-mash that I don't enjoy. This is a sandbox with weird pacing. The average player probably enjoys the exploration and combat the most, but stops have to be made to build. Odd design decision. Only in endgame you seem to get the privilege of not having to build, not to say that it isn't fun when you do it voluntarily.
