Terraria, The Last update!

...or is it? After a loong time being "dead", buried 6 feet under, the game saw daylight once again, with the newest update that arrived today (Oct 1st). To be honest, I thought the last patch was the "last patch" (they really said so!). but look! the patch arrived and the game started living again! YAAAY





















Terraria


Terraria died out couple of weeks/months after the last update V 1.1.
On 21 February 2012 they announced that the Terraria development had ceased. Redigit rose up from the depths and hinted on about a possible update 1 year later (23 January 2013). The Developers teased us greatly with the speaking about various details of a 1.2 update. And after some more confirmation of an update, they later on  stated that the 1.2 update would be larger than the 1.1 update (the update hardmode was introduced).


Well, enough about the past, now about the present!


Terraria update 1.2


There is so much to say about the newest update, almost too much to add for this tiny blog! So I'll add the link to the changelog riiiiiiiight HERE!

The update is huuuuge otherwise! Bugfixes, Mechanics and Gameplay, Graphical Changes, Recipes/Items, NPC's, Music and preformance/Miscellaneous.

Let's take the huuuge gamechangers that I see fit:

  • Enemies have a health bar! Map, Minimap and overlay that only shows tiles the brightest they have ever been
  • 8 new friendly npc's, 4 new bosses and over 100 new enemies!
  • Over 1,000 new items, 10 new ores, 4 new wood types, 31 new brick types and several new items
  • Sun is brighter and midnight is darker, hell houses and floating islands remodeled, each biome will have unique textures and wood types!
  • There are several new buffs and debuffs, Players no longer take double damage in PvP (for those interested), Mana Crystals only require 5 Stars, down from 10. Inventory space has been increased by 10, new hairstyles, character creation has been remodeled.
  • Chest sizes had been doubled (DOUBLED!)

So the Game is alive once again, Why not bring your friends into the world of Terraria and check out the new bosses, enemies and friendly NPC's. Maybe they will stick around and give us more updates, or just let it rest in peace? who knows, but what's for sure is that i'm going to start playing it again.


I do not want to spoil the fun and tell you what's new specifically! GO PLAY IT DAMN IT! 
....What? I don't care if you have over 500+ hours played and you're tired of it, just go and check it out! Why? BECAUSE I SAY SO!


KEEP ON GAMING!
