This game has blown me away by how much popularity it has gotten over the span of just a year. Trust me on this: You can go into the game at any time (even at midnight) and there will be at least ten or eleven servers waiting for you to join. Honestly, this just boggles my mind, and this is one of the few games I've seen that can sell more than a million copies in under a year.

Let's adress a problem you might be thinking about: Updates. When you first see the game's thumbnail, it has whatever update is the newest next to the "Move Or Die" logo. You might be thinking, "That update must've happened four months ago or something." Actually, this game has the most responding developers I have ever seen. They update their game whenever the Winter Holiday season starts, as well as Christmas. They have always asked their players what they want to see sometime before the update, as well. Plus, if you were to ask the developer if he could fix a bug, chances are that it will be fixed sometime within the next one or two months, maybe even a shorter amount of time.

The game does have a major problem, though: Internet connection. If you have poor Interenet connection, the game will almost always lag. This problem is fixed if the person you're playing with is in the same country as you, or if you're in the same room playing a couch game. This problem might even fix itself soon in the PS4 version. Yes, you heard me: It's coming to Playstation 4. (Well, it hadn't at the time of this review, but it's still pretty exciting.)

I would most likely give this game an 8.5/10. It's pretty fun to play with your friends, but it can be pretty laggy.

Even better than I expected.

I have been playing Terraria ever since 2013 or so, and I honestly love it. The game has improved ever since it has started, and what was first a so-called "2D Minecraft Rip-Off" has become a fantastic game. Here are some pros and cons:

Pros

• A ton of weapons, armor, and accessories that all have fun ways to use
  
• Improved multiplayer (If you have played the game as long as me, you know what I mean)
  
• A variety of NPCs to help you advance through the game
  
• Amazing designs for... pretty much everything
  
• Bosses that are always fun to defeat with your friends or even by yourself
  
• An extremely active community of other players
  
• Achievements that are fun to get

Cons

• Without the use of the internet, the game can be extremely confusing for beginners
  
• Younger players will have a hard time spelling the actual name of the game
  
• Updates take a long time to put into the game, so if there is a bug in the game it will take a while to fix
  
• The game has been hacked by annoying players countless times

So, overall, I would give this game a 9/10. This game is well worth buying, even if it is a little expensive.

EDIT: I wrote this when I didn't have a job. This game isn't expensive at all.

Let me adress the game's bad qualities first: The fact that even if you can't get into a server, it will stay up on the list of servers you can get on is pretty annoying to have to deal with. I'm not sure if it happens to other people, but it happens to me and my friends all the time. The only other complaint I have is that they stopped updating the game as much as they did, but I understand that they have to work on other games. Besides those simple things, the game is pretty interesting and hilarious. There's funny cutscenes and even when you do something as simple as getting a gem (the in-game currency) the narrator will say something hilarious. It also has a great story that I haven't actually seen much, but I'm not going to spoil what it is. The game also has good party games, like Ball Game, King Of The Hill, and more. It even has a level editor, which is supported by the steam workshop. So, this game is great for everyone out there who loves a good videogame storyline, level editors, and party games.
