Its creator, Andrew Spinks, explains that the enormous success of the title prevents him from abandoning the project permanently, since there is still demand.

    I won’t complain about free updates, but I’d rather have a second game at some point. Most equipment and enemies have just become boxes on a checklist and I’d love to regain the sense of danger and exploration my first playthrough had all those years ago.

      Try mods. There’s a bunch of them.

      Honestly, I wish Spinks would call it done just so the modders could stop chasing a moving target.

        I have not looked into mods at all. Do you have any suggestions for mods which overhaul the game more or less completely?

    I “beat” the game in 2012, but it was an ungodly number of hours. Is it worth playing through again? New stuff? New mechanics? A small world might go faster?

      It’s absolutely worth playing again, tons of new content and quality of life improvements. Progression should be faster in a small world, but personally I feel like medium is ideal for a single player world.

      I’d personally get Tmod and install Calamity Mod with a few other choice recommendations.

      It’s still such a great game with great modders.

    While I haven’t delved too much into the last few content patches, it’s definitely a game that has such an insane amount of things you can find and experience, and unless you do the exact same playstyle every playthrough it has a ton of replay value.

    Having played on and off since 1.0 it’s still a game I find worth picking up and doing a new run of.
