both

Thorium if you want to play with other mods that have post game shit
Calamity if you just want bull hell style retrdation on both sides of the spectrum

>>715289581 (OP)
Neither. The only mod you need for terraria is magic storage.
It really ought to just be basegame at this point.

thorium by a landslide

>>715289709
I like all of them and Spirit Mod.
Grand Thunderbird is cool in Thorium
Sulfur Sea is cool even though it's gay that you can lose health from underground pressure
Collecting Draedon power cells sucks
Wolfrum armor set is cool
Music is good in all of them

To be fair, Fabsol had to go because he is a lazy nigger who adds one boss every half a decade and redesigns old bosses that don't need redesigning billions of times, and he has like 3 more bosses to add

>>715289728
when was this?

>>715290709
Last month probably

They couldn't just split off with Fables but they wanted that Calamity Patreon money probably

Not that I have a leg in the race. Keep making content mods for me.

>thorium
Bard and healer class are neat and the classes really shine in multiplayer. Not really a fan of some of the new ores like smooth coal. The most interesting thing I think the mod does are the sheath accessories, and I think it's a shame there are so few of them. This is more of a vanilla+ mod.
>calamity
This one adds a lot of weapons at every stage for all classes. Some are very basic but there's usually at least 1 or 2 weapons for a class with a unique mechanic that's not in the original game. You start with higher speed to help getting around, and vanilla balancing has been tweaked so some items are stronger, and some are weaker. This one does give a lot of post moon lord content, whether or not you like that depends on how much you like bossing in terraria. I would say this one is a vanilla rehaul and expansion mod.

>>715289581 (OP)
Played only through Calamity once on Revengeance + Master with a mage build, and the difficulty curve was all over the place. Some bosses you can kill on your first try, while others are so absurdly difficult that you will pull out every dirty trick in the book to give yourself the tiniest of edges, and even then it will take you so many tries that you'll feel completely numb by the time you beat them. 'twas overall a worthwhile experience, though. No comment on Thorium, since I haven't played it.

>>715289581 (OP)
Last time I played modded Terraria, Calamity with their meme difficulty mode inspired by Metal Gear Rising was actually pretty fun. Haven't touched modded Terraria since 1.4 at all though so I have no idea what's changed since then, I bet they ruined everything at least a few times.

Then again now that I think about it, that's a great way to step down while ensuring nobody will bother you again. I'll take a note for the future.

Thorium. Calamity's original creator was usurped by insidious trannies on its Discord server, and was far too liberal with its "vanilla changes" even before that.

Thorium has its flaws (e.g. the Exhaustion handicap for Thrower), but its additions are generally agreeable enough, and the Aquatic Depths is one of the better modded biomes out there.

>>715289728
Ah, yes. The mod leadership behind adding "Ben Shapiro" as one of the possible alternative names for the guide. I just can't believe that they would say something bad about trannies.

>>715289581 (OP)
Thorium/Consolaria still BTFO calam*ty slop. I know people want more. Post ML content in particular, but Calam*ty is not it. You'll find youself much happier interacting with the building aspect of the game and taking your time going through the progression than speed run autisming it to the end where you're left with a hull feeling.

I recommend Secret of the Shadows as a content mod.

>>715294837
This is true. I don't ever bother with master mode since I find it to be purely stat bloat, but you'll almost always find some bosses that are super easy for your class and some that make you want to pull out your teeth. Nowadays if I have trouble with a boss I use teleporters to get away and let the potion cooldown wear off. Prehardmode bosses never give enough trouble need anything more than a platform or two.

I didn't play that much of terraria, but I liked exploration and searching for cool stuff in chests.
What would be the best mod that focus on this?

Play the game? What more do you want me to say? The Guide pretty much tells you everything you NEED to know to get started and throughout the game he tells you how to progress, it's not that much of a wiki game.

>>715289581 (OP)
calamity's lore items have great prose

>>715289581 (OP)
Thorium isn't that good. If you want a mod that adds content without completely overpowering everything else, you can install Calamity Fables since it's only in a super early stage of development but lets you generate a metric shitton of building materials out of Wulfrum. It also adds actual, functional elevators and is the only mod to my knowledge that does this.

Thorium if you want a vanilla friendly experience
Calameme if you are a faggot.

Calamity
Also make sure to get the calamity unnerfed mod to remove some of the retarded changes like defense damage and no infinite flight.

>>715289581 (OP)
Some people don't like saying the quiet part out loud, but the only reason that Thorium is "vanilla-friendly" is because it adds a lot of content that frankly doesn't have any practical impact on the game. It adds over 2000 items while maybe 50 of those are worth a damn at best, and the bosses it adds are really clunky and easy to beat (easier than Vanilla in a lot of cases). Most of the NPCs also don't really have anything worth selling either. Not everything needs to be Calamity, but I really do wish people would stop praising Thorium just because it adds a heaping helping of useless crap to your game.

>>715308107
People like thorium because it’s not bullshit and because you can seamlessly have it alongside other content mods. Also your complaint pretty much applies to every content mods except Calamity. Calamity goes out of its way to make everything not calamity worthless.

>>715289581 (OP)
bloatslop

>>715289581 (OP)
Thorium is a good mod, craplamity isn't.

>>715308107
Thorium's entire strength is that it feels like a vanilla addon. In fact the lazy fuck Terraria devs should have hired the Thorium guys to make it part of the game long ago.

>>715311048
And I'm grateful that they didn't because all of the bosses that Thorium adds suck. Compare its content to stuff like the Deerclops, Queen Slime, Empress of Light, and the bosses in the Old One's Army. Those ones make everything in Thorium feel pedestrian in comparison.

And I'm bringing up the bosses specifically because like I mentioned, the majority of the content they added outside of that just isn't worth talking about. Useless NPCs that are only occupying housing space and 2000 items that don't actually impact the game. It shouldn't be praised because it has nothing worth talking about.

>>715312539
Your complaint is that Thorium doesn’t invalidate vanilla stuff like Calamity does. Which is absolutely retarded.

Also in the same vein the thorium bosses are fine. They slot in as being pretty much the same difficulty as vanilla bosses at the same levels.

>>715289581 (OP)
Pre-hardcore og terraria.

>>715305012
Fagsol was found to have said some mildly negative things about trannies (the standard male vs female biology in sports and trannies in women's bathrooms talking points) so it (((suddenly came out))) that he ran a NSFW discord server like almost a decade ago and had an underage friend there whom he made some inappropriate remarks towards. This "reveal" obviously riled a lot of people up and, to avoid the entire work going down in flames with him, he transferred ownership and fucked off.

The White Man's choice.

I finally played through this game a month ago, moon lord was so disappointing. I killed him and literally said out loud to myself thats it? Really expected another phase. The quad tower thing was a little gimmicky and lame imo to be considered a real phase of the final boss fight of the whole game…I think next year I’ll give one of these mods a go so I can actually utilize the cool drill mount and zenith. I grinded those out after I killed him and then stopped cuz there was literally nothing left to do lol

>muh calamity
No, I'm saying that it just isn't worth installing. I really like the Thunderbird and the hook that it drops. I cannot think of anything beyond that which either impressed me or actually served any purpose to me that Vanilla items didn't do better. What's the point in installing a mod if you're just going to ignore the majority of its content?

I mentioned earlier in this thread that Calamity Fables is really nice to run alongside other mods in its early alpha state. It only adds a couple of bosses and adds a lot of items that are actually functionally useful, like the elevators and the bulk storage chest (which while less space efficient than just using 3 chests, is 3 chests). It doesn't demand your absolute attention when you load it but at least has some incentive *to* load it, which I can't really say for Thorium since it's mostly multiplayer-adjacent content in the form of Bard/Healer content or a small number of useful items that get outclassed by vanilla content.

>They slot in as being pretty much the same difficulty as vanilla bosses at the same levels.
From what year? 2011? The only one that's really of an appropriate difficulty is the Grand Thunderbird, which you can pretty confidently call a King Slime-level boss. Everything else floats around Eye of Ctlulhu level, at best, until you get to the Star Scouter which drops one of the most broken sentries in the game.

Afterwards, you enter Hardmode and you need to go from the Fallen Beholder and skip all the way up to The Primordials since everything else inbetween has behaviors and patterns that make EoC look hard by comparison. You could maybe include the Forgotten One in there as well, but as long as you construct a rudimentary arena (dig a big hole in the ground), it's just a weaker version of Plantera.

You don't need to hold them to Calamity's standard. You need to hold them to Vanilla's standard. Most of the Hardmode bosses it adds don't compare to Queen Slime (the boss that's recommended to clear as soon as you enter HM) and most of the pre-HM bosses don't compare to Queen Bee or Deerclops.

If you're talking about Vanilla, all you need is either to actually talk to the Guide and explore, or to look at the wiki for a few pointers in regards to progression. Less experienced players have this tendency to ignore the Guide NPC when he's there to show you what to craft and occasionally point you in the direction of stuff you haven't discovered yet.

And if you're running modded, you can basically replace all of those functions with three simple mods
>Boss Checklist (Shows you spawn conditions for bosses and which ones you have or haven't killed)
>Recipe Browser (Shows you item recipes and what enemies drop items)
>Magic Storage (does the above to a lesser extent with its crafting interface, but is also just superior storage so you're not fucking around with 10,000 chests)

With those three things, you'd only really need a wiki for modded content.

Devils advocate here but this is the equivalent of being the owner of a porn site and learning that some kid lied about his age to access the site by clicking the big "I am 18" button. Seems like a complete nothingburger and not the guy's fault, at least based on this description. Pedo shit is just a new easy to way to cancel somebody, it's like an apolitical version of calling someone a tranny/transphobe, you get demonized by everyone even if it's not true

These texture packs are so fucking ugly, and not just because her boobs are sized like that. Why is the pixel ratio not the same with the rest of the game? How does anyone find this appealing?

>>715345614
The problem is that Fabsol knew that there were minors in his gooning server. It's also a little different to be in a private server with a bunch of kids jacking off to porn and lying about your age on a website that you can access from your browser. The system operators aren't personally interacting with every single user while they goon to shemales pegging black steeds.

>>715346353
It'd require running background checks on everyone that joins the server to be effective. Who joins an nsfw community then goes around telling people their age, especially if they're a teen?

Also, where does fabsol live? Depending on his location the age of consent might be different than whatever the government says it is somewhere else. It's a different matter entirely if we're talking about 16-17 year olds in the server versus 12 year olds. I don't buy this being as cut and dry as the post implies

>>715345381
I like building and hate wasting my time going through a million chests (sorted or otherwise) just to grab building material.

>>715346470
Uh no, it would just require kicking people the fuck out of your private goon servers when you know that they are minors. It's not a hard concept to grasp in the slightest.
