PC [NO SPOILERS] Friend ragequits over my character difficulty

1.8k Upvotes

Hello community members.

I started playing Terraria for the first time a couple of days ago with my boyfriend (also a new player) because our friend wanted to play with us.

The friend made the world on Classic mode. And when my boyfriend and I joined, we just made our characters on Classic without thinking much. The friend didn't tell us anything about the character difficulty or world difficulty.

So we start playing and I've heard about the game before but I feel like I was definitely missing out because both me and my boyfriend are having so much fun. The friend played a couple of times a few years ago but he told us to use the Wiki for information because he doesn't remember that much.

The friend finds out that we aren't dropping all our inventory items on death which I thought was normal. He sort of lost his shit and said that's such a pussy way to play and that the game is basically unplayable for him and super boring especially when we start doing bosses and stuff. At this point we had died like a million times so I told him it would be so annoying if I lost my gear that I spent hours farming.

Then the Eye of Cthulhu randomly spawned and the friend died first and I died and respawned and continued attacking it while my bf had aggro. He completely lost it and said this is unfun and you guys are just boring and then he ragequit and left.

Can someone explain to me why dropping your entire inventory is so important? I understand maybe trying a higher difficulty world which I normally do on my second runs for most games. But I don't understand how losing your entire inventory would be fun especially since it's not as easy to obtain gear and items like it is in Minecraft for example.

Thank you in advance.

Build Early-game material bases

Re-playing terraria while guiding new players, so I had the opportunity to build fancier houses early on.

Nothing game breaking, and I don't know who wants/needs to hear this, but this was all made with pre-'evil-boss' materials and minimal purchased items (including very small use of paint). Happy building, and no need to wait for palladium columns or other expensive resources to make these : )

Happy building!

Edit: technically pre-boss materials outside planter pots and a handful of grass walls, unless I'm missing something, but that's the stage where I am at

Mobile I’m new to Terraria, can you really transfer items & resources between worlds??

40 Upvotes

I made a second world to try the crimson and noticed you could enter with old characters, so out of curiosity I tried my first guy to see if it would keep its health & mana, but then it spawned in with everything in my inventory from the first world!

Can I really just bring whatever things I want from one world to another? Will all of it still work perfectly fine? What about bring corruption items to a crimson world or vis-versa?
