I picked it up a couple of weeks ago and I have something like 50 hours in it. I felt the similarities to Terraria pretty immediately with all of the trinkets/accessories, the bosses mostly all have a drop per class and stuff like that. When I beat the standard progression I hadn't explored much of the settlement stuff, or potions, or magic or thrown or ranged or summoning. I'm playing as a range focused character now.

I will end up putting too much time into it for sure, but I might still prefer Terraria because I grew up with it.

    I'm older Gen Z and I notice the same. I'll ssh to a computer across the house rather than go turn it off manually, and my friends use tik tok for their search engine. Its an ever widening gap too since things have become so convenient for the uninformed.

    You recognize the feelings of the author and relate to them personally with Charles Petzold's writing from back when, and say they need to grow up?

    I think it's a little reductive to say the author just wants everything to be easy.
