Terraria

Terraria is a sandbox game that has been very popular for a long time only just quietening down three years after its release. Terraria is a mixture of multiple genres (Action, Adventure and RPG).  I thought would be a good game to see how and why people get affected or attached to the game because of the mixture of genres. I asked a couple of people what they liked most about the game and what they didn’t. 

Person one said: “I enjoy playing Terraria in general because it’s always an adventure...you never know what you can find...I’m get very excited when I find new items and biomes...I like finding multiple things to craft with...it’s enjoyable in multiplayer...and it’s a easy and very calming game after a stressful day at work”

Person two said: “It was fun for the first couple of hours but the worlds are too small there isn’t a lot of exploring to be done and the bosses don’t need a lot of tactics or strategies to beat”.

Between the two people I asked they seemed to have very varied views on what makes Terraria a good and bad game.  Person one views are a lot more helpful on the subject and talk about more things than person two that kept their answer “short and sweet”. In persons ones reply they talked a lot about multiplayer and how it’s a lot more enjoyable playing with friends than alone.
