Agreed, the animation looked weird and off. But I don't think the art dev of Terraria is on this... I think. Can't say definitely.

Russian. Some things are just plain cheatingly cheaper in Rubles on Steam. For example, Far Cry 3 is $50. If I were to buy it directly for USD, it'd translate to... well, about 1550 RUR. On Steam, I can buy it for 799 RUR. It's not the same for all things, some retain their prices, but it works for quite a lot of titles. KSP for $23, or 715 RUR? Listed for 450. Just recently bought Stardrive for 430.

So, I think it can still work out in the end. Not to mention all the conversion fees I'll save on. ^_^

Oh, you lucky bastard. I think I might just have to move to the Motherland now.

Redigit was the art dev for terraria, IIRC. He's leading the project. However, you need only watch the recorded streams to see how much better it looks than Terraria.

I don't mean the animation either. Jumping, running, and walking was wonky in Terraria which is why most of the enemies are the "walk into you slowly" kind.

I just want to know if the controls are solid enough that the game actually starts requiring skill.

On the contrary, Tiy, the art dev of Terraria is the Lead in Starbound. although, i am not sure you can "blame" (i really don't think there's nothing to blame to in terraria in terms of art) him for terraria visuals since he was brought in after the engine was 90%++ done to replace the placeholder art which was really "borrowed" from another game, which means he never had the chance to conceive a graphical vision that is supported by the engine from the get go. take Bastion for example, a game which has his two main selling points (Visuals and Audio - lets be honest, it doesn't have much more than that) closely knitted to the engine; had the artist just came in the last second, i am not sure you would have seen so many different blocks or other graphical goodness. and i am not talking about having all the art done at the start of the development, i am talking about the general art style and vision for the game which i am willing to bet was more or less there as some sort of animated mock up even before the engine could support it.

I'm under the impression that the graphics were done by some guy calling himself Red Yoshi or something like that. Basically who ever did the graphics for Super Mario Bros X (Another of Redigits works), so you know he is more well suited to recoloring, rather than doing his own sprites.

Wait I meant to say Tiy, not Redigit. Shit. Whatever. I never could keep up with terraria's development or team, it always seemed to change so much.

I am hovering on the edge of preordering this... for those that did... what in particular about this game makes it a must-have for you?

That looks like something they adapted from Ratchet & Clank.

It's not really Terraria in Space.
It is so much more.

Could you briefly elaborate for the uninformed (i.e. me)?

Well.. I am not very good at explaining stuff.
But I have a question first, have you been to their website, seen the dev vids on youtube?
If you have and is still not convinced, I am not sure I can convince you either.
