I'm holding off on starting any new characters until 1.3 comes out, but I'd be happy to play with folks once that happens.

What's this about an update? I just found a friend who loves Terraria and starts a new character every single time he finds people to play with because he likes progressing with them (which is pretty awesome). So, I'm finally getting to have a proper playthrough of the game with people. So, what does 1.3 do?

[Sirus]

Well, here's one of the things getting added:

Looks like a new armor set.

Oh shit- with a feather fall potion you can ride your bee into space.

longer.

1.3 comes June 30th.

It boggles my mind that they're still updating, even if it is at a glacial pace.

[Niveras]

Seriously. These guys (or this guy, the updates were only by one person, haven't they?) could've made a fortune on the 1.2 and now 1.3 updates, but they're even free.

Well no... charging for those would have broke the game AND would interfere with Terraria 2

There's a team of spriters and playtesters working pro bono now. Red couldn't charge without paying them. At least that's the impression I get when I check the fansite.

That's...hum. I'm not sure how I feel about that, honestly. Is there any way to get an estimate of how much money they're still making off Terraria, after however many years?

And... the last 1.3 trailer is upon us:

Dammit, I'm hyped. Especially as I did not play the previous update. So it's gonna be double the fun for me!
One more week...

[Aklyon]

I would say the direction is MORE THINGS, because I don't really see any connection between all of those bits besides some of them are neat.

[Gunner-Chan]

Honestly, I think at some point they realized they already sorta had a kitchen sink. And just ran with it.

The game is pretty much just unfettered madness by now, and there's something weird and oddly unique about a game that decided to have no real overarching theme.

[nenjin]

Yeah, at this point there's things from the last update I haven't tried, I'm sort of overwhelmed by how much is going on.

My real draw for Terraia now is just building a garden world in the map editor. Which actually makes updates sort of inconvenient for me until TEdit gets an update.
