Terraria parody vid 2024???

[@LunaWitcherArt]

It's fun because Terraria is such a widely known and played game AND YET there are not a lot of views for it on KZbin, and it could never be compared to Minecraft's presence online. But then again, the official Terraria page was unaccessible when the 1.4 update and change log dropped because there was too many people trying to access it. Basically Terraria is mainly played, not watched, while Minecraft is watched, not played (specially after the DreamSMP thing began).

[@ForgieDusker]

for your first foray back into Terraria, it's probably a good idea to go in on classic difficulty, but on expert mode and higher, bosses have extra attack patterns and drop goodie bags, which always drop a cool accessory that does unique things. the Brain of Cthulhu, for example, will drop one that confuses melee targets, and the Eye of Cthulhu will drop a shield that lets you dash away and/or into enemies and also deal melee damage on hit. smart cursor will also be your friend- manual cursor is just where you click, but smart cursor will prioritize things closest to you when mining, or the nearest spot that gives a placed torch maximum efficiency, or automatically spaces out placed acorns to give the trees maximum growth. most of the game is also played underground, like a mirror of Minecraft's above-ground exploration. there are plenty of thing to find, but most important is to take note of biomes. unlike Minecraft, Terraria's biomes are dependent on the blocks used to make them; you can make "artificial biomes" by placing a ton of blocks nearby, and for instance if you want to do a lot of fishing, it'd be a good idea to make an artificial jungle biome with maximum surface area to spawn grass and background object that you can break to spawn worms and grubs. also, the world has roughly two blights (one on each side of the map, being corruption or crimson), a desert on one side with an ice biome on the opposite side, and a jungle on one side with The Dungeon on the opposite side, and beyond those, another forest biome, and then the ocean. my last tip to keep this from being too long, since idk if Jordan's actually gonna read it, is that you're gonna wanna pick a class to play as; melee, magic, ranged, or summoner. Summoner doesn't have a whole lot of armor choices that enhance it with the set bonus, and magic has some really strong pre-hardmode contenders (waterbolt, bee gun), but don't worry; you're not gonna lock yourself into or out of any single class. that said, try carefully delving into the Dungeon. normally, you get merked by big skull if you go in without killing the associated boss, but that only happens at around or under sea level. or... whatever 0 blocks is on the depth meter. look on bookshelves for the Waterbolt, which can hard carry you for a while.

dear god, I am both incredibly excited and dreading this series. having played Minecraft for as long as he can, I can already tell the learning curve will be very steep

[@karlezraumali7155]

Love that Jordan is playing this game again. I will say that Classic is the best way to first experience Terraria, or at least when you're just experiencing it again after a very long time. Expert mode can be a bit unforgiving since it requires sweaty tactics like using buffs and advanced arenas with honey, heart lanterns, campfire, sunflower, and other buffs from furniture, or at least being overgeared by grinding. You also have to remember attack patterns. Some people would say that that is the correct way to play, but I honestly don't recommend leading newbies or people unfamiliar with the game into the sweaty route immediately

[@canex3620]

I would love to see this series continue, you should definitely try expert & then master mode later on!

[@Sledg0matic]

And now you must continue until you have crafted a Zenith. Have fun, and good luck!

[@bencrandall3201]

kind of insane how far the game has come since he played, and how far HE has come as well :)

[@ARDIZsq]

As a Terraria veteran, here are some of my favorite quotes from this episode. "I got Crimson? Is Crimson good?" (Early game, no. Mid/late game, absolutely) "There's like, no mobs in the Desert." (Oh boy...) *Activates Smart Cursor* "Oh that's smart" (Unintentional pun is great) "Are there stack limits in Terraria?" (Praise Red for increasing that in the last update. Mojang needs to get on that too) "Is there fall damage in this game? No fall damage? Ok, awesome." (He doesn't know) "Tin = Iron? Ok" (Chat member clearly does not know their ores) *something dies* "I feel like I should go over there." (Ironically, yes) "I found a pot, I'm gonna be Zelda." (Ah yes... "Zelda," infamous breaker of pots...) "I'm contending with multiple dude-bros." (Wait until he hears about the goblins...) Really interested to see him discover some things. For veterans, we should look forward to Dungeon, the new liquid, "The Nether," if it happens by accident the "cursed butterfly," etc. Can't wait to see some traps either.

[@sam_c95]

I'm excited to see you play this game Jardon, even if it was slightly painful watching you learn the early game it was still entertaining. Considering you're basically a new player, the chat really helped you get up to speed pretty quickly (with only a few trolls and bad advices!). Idk how you'd break into this game without help, my brother guided me to learn. I hope you stick with it until the endgame!

[@b.tettenborn5986]

[@orimoreau3138]

Guide lets zombies in on first night? Yep, that's that classic terraria experience - now or 11 years ago

[@christopherbourn9208]

TIPS: 1: press Ctrl to swap to your "Auto-select" cursor, which lets you place, break and select the blocks closest to you. 2: hold shift to use the proper tool or item your cursor is hovering. i.e. a pickaxe when hovering stone, axe on tree, torch on back wall, glow stick when cursor is far 3: ask the guide for crafting advice, if you're curious you can learn all the crafting recipes by putting a material in his slot

[@deadlock852]

Have you watched the video

[@Storse]

[@abbewinter9249]

Was not expecting this to come to pass, but man, am I looking forward to this. Terraria is wild.

[@Edward_Murtinhhour_The_3rd]

Don't expect Jardoon to read this but what it means by more loot in expert mode it means that the drop rate for items being higher(like maybe a really difficult item to get is less grindy) at the cost that 1. All enemies have more health and do more damage and 2. Bosses have a third (sometimes fourth) extra faze. So your Not missing out on anything with playing playing normal.

[@Honest_Mids_Masher]

What about the treasure bags? Because unless if they changed it that was a expert mode exclusive thing right?

[@xvtitanbane2349]

except it also has addition loot and attacks for the bosses, in his case it probably is better to play normal, but normal mode is genuinally missing items and entire boss phases that expert has

[@krimson8317]

I love how so much of Terraria has stayed the same since its release. The music, and the start of the game is practically untouched since 1.0.

[@Admiral_Lynx89]

Commenting as I watch. (Eyes loading bar at start) Looks like we got Crimson this time. Jordan truly doesn't seem to know how to box in that incorrigible guide; this is pure entertainment value. 🤣 ...Jardon vs Vultures = Peak strategy, and yes, lots of laughs. Very relaxing mining session after all the start up chaos. Jardon may not fully grasp the nuances of Terraria just yet, but he isn't expected to become some super hardcore expert overnight. Really, he's just doing this for fun, and because it is great content for us, we definitely need to show positive support for it. I'm loving this, so that's at least my vote of confidence that as long as this remains fun for Jordan, he should keep making the content. If the Terraria experts watching this should say anything, they should consider offering advice about build/class archetypes. Yoyos are fun. Summons can also be fun, if a little overdone. Melee doesn't do anything too transformative with the archetype, but it can be fun if Jardoon prefers straight up brawling over being a "wizard". There's a lot to learn, and I hope everyone is patient our favorite "boomer" as he reacquaints himself to/learns the new mechanics of the game. 😄

[@DFPercush]

The guide keeps opening your doors cause you don't have background walls. If it's not "valid housing" for any reason, then the NPCs don't know the difference between inside and outside. They'll stay indoors at night, as long as it's a valid structure. You can click the question mark above your armor and then click on the interior of the house to tell if it counts as valid housing.

[@BSMGZion]

My only gripe is that I wasn't in the stream to tell him that expert is genuinely the better way to play terraria, large worlds are best for loot variety, and crimson world evil because it's easier to traverse early game.

[@Drockaggie25]

[@ZizZap4]

Late but clarifying a few things that chay shoved down your throat, and a few other small quality of life notes -- • The Guide is a crafting guide but not the way you used him. Talking to him opens your OWN crafting menu, but if you provide the guide with an item that has the "material" tag he'll show you everything that can be crafted with that item. It won't allow you to make those items, but it can at least point you in the right direction. • As you learned, there are two cursor modes -- a precise building/breaking mode and an automated smart cursor. The smart cursor is great for walls, but it's also good for longer mining trips and resource gathering -- mining to the sides or up/down will make perfect straight tunnels that are the size of your character, and it also makes mining ore veins less tedious since it tries to target ores over the stone around it. • Harley let the zombies in because the house wasn't technically a house. NPCs only stop moving at night when they're inside their own secure house, so his AI was in "fight or flight" mode while trying to look for a valid house. The "housing query" tool in your inventory (question mark on the NPC list) can help tell you if an area is valid housing. If you're on the right path the tool will tell you what you're missing in order for it to count as a house. • A house generally consists of a large enough room with background walls, lighting, an entrance, a "platform" (any flat-topped table-like furniture like a table, workbench, piano, etc.), and a "comfort" (anything to sit on like a chair, bench, etc.). • There are also a kind of block called platforms that you can pass through -- you can jump up through the bottom and hold down to fall through it. It can be hammered into visually pleasing stairs. • In addition to being able to destroy background walls, a hammer is able to reshape blocks into slopes and slabs, which is great for building. They have a few other uses but those come later. • Many of your accessories also double as vanity items. If you have something equipped that looks ugly and don't have anything to cover it with in its corresponding vanity slot, you can click the small eye icon next to it to hide it. Hope you enjoy yourself!
