Terraria 3D: Brain Of Cthulhu | Boss Fight

[@thebulbamachine4789]

You somehow found a way to make this boss way more intimidating and overwhelming because of the size and way it moves.

[@CrowFGC]

is terraria in 2d intimidating? lol

[@DestructoGabe8]

If that's his brain... HOW BIG WILL MOONLORD BE?

[@sco0t26]

I mean, its the MOON lord, so probably the size of a moon

[@Garbo_trashcan]

Wow, that... is horrifying. The brain actually feels threatening and gigantic and the illusions are actually confusing. Cant decide whether this or the eater are my favourite, both are amazingly well done.

[@TGKawikachu]

The illusions in a way are easier because the version with the boss health is the real one. If the health bar gets removed, then it'll be way harder, although probably a little unbalanced.

[@plague1one325]

I really love the idea of 3D terraria as I used to watch terraria bosses in real life videos and seeing this makes terraria a whole lot cooler and more scary, just imagine wall of flesh or how crazy huge the destroyer gonna be, the only problems right now is that the land seems oversized or looks hard to traverse due to all the hills, also there seems to be no I-frames and you could work on the lighting as the environment is too dark sometimes and the torches seem weak and don't work much, also some effects are a lil too bright like the shield dash, but overall its super cool to see 3D terraria, keep up the good work, idk how hard it is to make games but it seems super tough so props to you bro.

[@jdogzerosilverblade299]

the land is 3d so i think its fine. unlike 2d terraria thie terrain feels more of what it would be like. but i dont think he added mining yet either. idk so far the game looks fantastic. really hope he actually finishes the entire game and not drop it like so many other devs tend to with remaking games like this.

[@he3004]

yea, the effects are disgustingly bright I don't usually mind such things on joke projects and non serious games but this one honestly deserved cooler graphics than those overly bright effects

[@thelaststraightguy990]

I hadn't though that I'd ever be terrified of the brain of cthulhu, but here I am, not sure if I want to watch any further than the first phase.

[@kanonwilliams9497]

It gets way more terrifying in phase two

[@d3monshadow]

to increase visibility on item drops, maybe try giving them a sorta beam that comes up from the item sorta like how it's done in borderlands, I think it would make things easier to find on the ground.

[@Cooldmusicz]

Yes please

[@emanuel_orozco_rodriguez]

This looks insane, is impressive how fast this game developing is going. On my opinion you should slightly increase the knock back BOC gets from no melee weapons, due to how hard is to get away from it on it's second phase. Also, you should add the 1.4.4 reworks in swords to Terraria 3D.

[@jackie_boi116]

Saw this before everyone, and I gotta say that I loved the design for BOC. It looks very detailed and honestly blew me away by how it looked like when it creeped into the distance. However, there are some issues. I-frames are still a problem, and it looks like creepers just swarm you, insta-killing you. Another issue I have is that Brain delusions aren't that very effective. It would've been much better with each illusion having a health bar. Despite that, I love this video, and I hope we can see a world gen update after Voxel 2.0 finally updates.

[@officialnoonon]

I should have seen it earlier myself, but it says "12 minutes ago" while your comment says "19 minutes ago". Huh whatever You're right, the i-frames thing is a big issue that needs to be improved/implemented asap. The other observations you made are also spot on, then again these are just the very first boss, AI, particle, design versions. I'm sure several revisits will be done over time.

[@Gaguera]

@@officialnoonon what is an "i-frame"? thanks!

[@ingenuity23]

@@Gaguera an i-frame (immunity frame) is whenever you get attacked you start flashing and don't take any damage for a few ticks, this is done to avoid instakilling and balance the game. you can have accessories too which improve it like cross necklace

[@breadspy5974]

What about the health bar getting more translucent as the brain's hp decreases? Would be a bit better way to let people figure out how the fight works in 3d

[@omeletttte]

This is actually amazing, the 3D environment lets the bosses reach that eldritch beast feel the 2D game never fully could, this is probably my favourite one so far just because it is absolutely horrifying

[@Dilithium1]

Glad to see you still working on this! Can’t wait to play when/if it becomes available!

[@determineddaaf3]

Man, the illusion mechanic is so cool. It works really well in 3D, you did a great job with it!

[@Zayle_]

At first I was thinking "This is cool, but the EoW fight was way more epic", but the the brain switched to second phase. Love the way you handled that! Also, can't help but think some awesome death animation/effects would go really well with how spooky the fights are, for a better sense of achievement.

[@0tomustak57]

Wow that second form feels actually panic inducing. Well done.

[@sadcatgaming9777]

[@chriszoner7906]

This is impressive i am glad this is brought to reality because we needed an opportunity to explore terreria more it was sad that the 1.4 update was the last of the creation but we got people like you to thank for the great things you bring

[@MinFox]

Dude, your work is awesome. More people need to see this. If you ever finish this, I would wholeheartedly buy this for 20+ USD. Looking forwards to future updates, make sure not to rush yourself though :)

[@keyboardegg931]

I think adding invincibility frames would make these fights a lot more fair, because often when you get hit you hear the hurt sound play multiple times, so you're essentially taking multiplied damage

[@_sandy_]

THIS IS SO SICK!! this is amazingly well done, the illusions are actually confusing and scary. a perfect counterpart to the EoW i love this project so much and i absolutely cannot wait to see more! keep it up

[@Dinosaurs_and_Pirates]

I absolutely love the illusion mimic brain mechanic. Completely different feeling in 3d with so many angles of approach.

[@rubles3143]

I'd say something you could do to improve the underground crimson is add a "ribcage" aesthetic to the tunnels, and have the vertebrae noticeably point in a specific direction, preferably down, so it's more clear which way you're going. Otherwise, this looks super awesome.

[@ChristianKobayashiComposer]

Super good music! Really adds to the atmosphere of the boss battle!

[@yralek5555]

This game is something the world truly did need, and I don't want to have any issues with it. But I do have one issue, and that is the inventory textures. The rest of the game is stunning, exactly what I imagined Terraria to be if it was 3d. The boss designs are spectacular, the player and held items are perfect, the gameplay is amazing, and the music implementation is excellent. But the inventory textures are so outdated, unlike the current original game. The last time I saw those textures in Terraria was 3 years ago. I don't really like how everything seems to be too big for the slots, with the item textures looking like they were made in a Minecraft texture creator. Aside from this, I find the game amazing! I feel it is the perfect recreation for an amazing game. Thank you.

[@ARTFACKT]

Great job , hope to try it one day ! i have a suggestion for this kind of gameplay , maybe integrating a dodging movement would be interesting

[@adityaramlal5991]

Ngl this is prolly the most terrifying boss ive seen in this 3d series by far

[@dominikdurkovsky8318]

Two questions : how are you going to make the bosses easier since you were using weapons that could only be accessed later in game or would really REALLY difficult to get that early in game . Even the enemies are harder to defeat so Please dont turn it into dark souls this early. Also how are you going to quarantine the crimson/corruption because a simple hellevator probably will not be enough?

[@Finstrax]

i love how intimidating the BoC is, can't wait to see later stuff like plantera menacingly slowly sprout out of a wall

[@RealPlasmat1c]

[@witherking6651]

I really love the redesign you applied to this boss. Great job.

[@idarkstarx6939]

I feel like since it’s 3D now stuff, the scale can get a bit, well, silly. Like crimson alters being so small looks kind of goofy. IMO maybe they and the demon counterparts should have like some kind of pagoda-like construct around them to help them stand out.

[@DESMal]

really really nice work so far, do you plan on adding summons? I don't remember seeing those in a video yet

[@neongenesis7236]

[@ericp6394]

Dude!! Incredible stuff!! That was amazing so see everything from a different perspective haha. The world feels so eerie when you get to view it in a 3D environment, and the way you designed everything about the boss fight was phenomenal! I love how the brain opens up during the second phase, and the chaos of all the illusions surrounding you is so well done! You're doing a fantastic job with your creation, i hope you continue to thrive! :D

[@ОдинизПраймов]

Геймплей в 3D Террарии выглядит куда более сложным, чем в оригинале(и даже страшным)

I hope it become available for play one day. Better yet, hope the originators adopt and support this idea!

[@dontknowwha]

this actually feels like its a crimson boss now, keep up the work

[@theconchinator2680]

I think a cool visual addition is a special animation for the boss summoners like throwing the worm food into the ground or breaking the spine I think that would add a lot

[@mynameistopaz]

Once you defeat skeletron you can unlock the hellevator in the dungeon entrance and it will teleport you to the underworld, and my idea for wall of flesh is like a wide and tall pile of flesh that chase you around the underworld

[@yaroslavl1133]

Wow... You did a fantastic job. It's like example of thing, which could be created with straight hands, and great imagenation!

[@dengc8973]

Like I've already said before, the way everything is so much bigger, from caves to bosses, makes everything look so much more intimidating, and Brain is no exception. The first phase is cool, you can see a giant brain floating towards you in the distance. But the second phase, the second phase is actually so incredibly terrifying, you can see a giant brain floating towards you like in phase one, but this time, it's got a giant mouth, and it's actually coming for you, you can see it getting closer and closer, see how actually gigantic it is, while you get overwhelmed by illusions, not knowing which one to hit, that is absolutely horrifying and I love it.

[@alexledet]

That was really friggin creepy and very well made! I have never made a video game, but I would love to see a despawn animation for the brain where it and the creepers coalesce into a dark fog that collapses on itself!!!

[@judeous5866]

This is super cool; I like your approach to the illusions

[@NN_SK]

huge respect to you! Doing such a huge job as it seems to me alone is cool!

[@benporreca1740]

This is awesome but I think something really simple that would change a lot about this fight is to make the illusions also have health bars, otherwise you can just ignore them and look for the one with the health bar which I feel like takes away from the actual fight. Great job regardless, this is amazing and I love your content!

[@Arkhal_]

youtube just randomly recommended me the EoW video, but it was from a few months ago so instead of commenting there I came here to make sure my words are conveyed. WHAT. THE. HELL. THIS IS AWFULLY AMAZING, JUST... WHAT... REALLY. I'm at a loss of words, lemme think a bit Okay, quite a few minutes and I organized my thoughts. First thigs first, the game's visual stuff is just overwhelming, and I'm surprised how everything (at least looks like) is working just fine and somewhat smooth. Good work. I know its still the game is still having his foundations built, but I'll just put my thoughts here, they might be useful as feedback once their issues become possible I think that a few things should and others could be displayed on the minimap. For instance, bosses capable of going through floor and walls, like the EoW, even if just the heads (pretty much like original Terraria), or it might get more confusing than it needs. Also, when items like metal detector become a thing, they could have an icon below the map when there are treasure nearby, and once you interact with it the item will be shown on the minimap directly, be it chests or ores Both evil biomes felt too plain >at the surface level

[@N0Bah_D]

[@mr.maestro3454]

Now that most of the (Pre-Hardmode) swords have got an upgrade in the latest update, will you include their special attacks as well? I still kind of think that you should change the sky color to a rather light red so it doesnt blend in too much with the ground. Overall, you did a fantastic job with reworking and designing some of the ingame items and I'm really looking forward to the result one day!
