Incredibly tragic to see this expansion wrapped up in culture wars ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ from every side. I have zero interest in talking about that, however, other than to acknowledge you can dislike things without becoming exclusionary and bigoted.


Outside of that though, I think this was a lovely expansion for the game and well sets the scene for what we can expect going forward with this next 'arc' of the MMO. It's a story that puts our characters in the backseat to allow us a trip to a new world to see things from their perspective rather than ours. It's rather elegant how they managed to pull off most of a story like this without it feeling like we are unjustly involving ourselves in matters. And what a place itself it was to explore! Tural and it's people are a delight and it inspires me further to write narratively about the universe.

Characters are great too. Wuk Lamat as our protagonist is an immediate standout for all the bubbly warmth she brings to the party, but there's hardly any character that feels awful. Sphene perhaps is a bit akward but that more has to do with pacing.

On that note: the pacing is my only real significant issue. I think the first bulk of the expansion with the trials to become dawnservant were all reasonably and well paced. But as we dip into spoiler zones it becomes a bit... crammed in. I certainly liked a lot of the elements present, but it just felt very tacked on to the expansion. I think it would have worked better if it was explored in patch quests more and we placed a bigger focus of Zoraal ja.

There are a few other little things to nitpick, like that I feel like some of the voice direction was poorly guided in certain scenes-- I liked Wuk Lamat and Erenville for most scenes but yeah there is a few where it comes off as poorly managed rather than actual failings of the actors. And I also really would have liked to see more from Krile in this expansion. But otherwise? This is a breath of fresh air for the setting that was sorely needed and well earned after the events of Endwalker. I would say they're really about even in enjoyment, with both being very good with only really some pacing issues.

Another L for the Automaton Menace :flex:

A life-changing JRPG that pushes above and beyond the call of the genre. Not just in the game play variety and amount of content, but what it has to say. It's profound, for lack of a better word. It made me laugh and cry in equal measures.

I've practically spent the last 2 or 3 years cramming this game down people's throats whenever I get the chance. Kasey really did plant an incredible brainworm in me with this game. And I can do nothing but thank him for letting this experience into the world.

Please, if you're even for a moment considering it-- give Jimmy a try. You'll never play anything quite like it.

I could NOT be trusted to be in the same room as Hadron

Great game but ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ please learn how to format patches so they aren't the size of entire other games.

I have about 400 hours worth of Tmodloader gameplay on my actual Terraria, which is why my time here is very short. However, for some ungodly reason, I decided to clean up my files on vanilla terraria for 1.4's release. Therefore, all of my stuff should be gone. Despite that, everything is right here on this completely seperate client even tho it was all deleted. I don't know how you even do that but whatever it is, I'm giving this product a thumbs up for the black witchcraft it runs on.
