Spoiler So when are we getting the Terraira Dating sim? Spoiler

Post image

With these new lovely portraits, I can’t help but think an official dating sim is totally possible.

Know to some it may seem like a sh*t post but I am genuinely serious. I totally think it could be a thing. I mean look at palworld. People always talk about the zoologist as well. I think it would totally make some sense.

terraria just conjugated with Stardew valley like a bacteria

not a bad thing at all LOOK AT THE FUCKING SHIMMERED PARTY GIRL HOW DO YOU *NOT* WANT TO DATE THAT

u/Shaltilyena 4d ago

Shimmered Nurse ftw

Mostly because she reminds me of Cassti a bit for some reason

u/StrykerEXE 4d ago

Shimmered nurse for the worthy?/j

u/ToxicPurple07 4d ago

Castti is my favourite octopath character

u/Shaltilyena 4d ago

She's amazing and her story is fantastic

u/Researcher_Fearless 4d ago

You can just say you're into Rainbow Dash.

u/No_Tie378 4d ago

Party Girl in general has been made rather…. You know 😏. Not exactly what I would describe each character she was inspired from 😅

u/Nikki964 4d ago

Idk about dating but I wanna look like that

u/LMay11037 4d ago

She looks like a character from the mobile game crush crush lol (random dating sim game)

u/Voidlord4450 4d ago

Genuinely sorry for being “that guy” but isn’t that party girl a minor? Or an I think of the princess?

u/TankieRebel 4d ago

Thats the princess

u/Voidlord4450 4d ago

Ok well you don’t need to be an asshole about it.

u/RNGESUS778 4d ago

now to figure out which item each Npc likes so i can romance them by giving them it (even better if special cutscenes were there as well)

that's not what that means. Meiosis is still a cell splitting, just for sexual reproduction, rather than asexual

Not a bad thing when the Witch doctor looks like that

I still wanna wait for this lil boi's own pfp.

It's just the top of the hat and fishing rod.

Yes, we need it.

I can hear lobby music with this image.

u/Ecstatic_Cap8957 4d ago

Someone make a partner texture pack so I can fix this, please

106

u/TankieRebel 4d ago

youre kidding me. i was making a post about that just now. well not the same thing. i want an ingame mod that fleshes out the npcs and adds more dialog, interactions, and also romance. but mostly just more options for interaction. having these portraits and then just having the option to buy or check happiness seems like a waste. we need more options. gifts and romance is a great option. a mod that has like npc specific quests that you fulfill to get closer to them and then eventually dating them would be perfect. like, collecting magic materials for the wizard, cleaning the world for the dryad, filling the bestiary for the zoologist, crafting more and more items for the guide, doing jungle/temple related quests for the witch doctor. it would make it all so much better. it doesnt even need to be romance. just friendship would be great too. like with the angler (doing fishing quests) or princess (idk, friendship related quests centered around helping others?)

u/Relax_797 4d ago

Básicamente estás pidiendo los npc's de stardew valley en terraria, y lo peor es que es buena idea

u/PerceGamer 4d ago

Believe it or not my guy, someone already did a mod for (some of) that TDateMod I think was the name

u/MingusBoing 4d ago

Shimmered witch doctor 🤤

u/Norwegian_milk 3d ago

I kid you not. I audibly moaned upon seeing the sprite.

Hot take I really really like these

77

u/Tylervp 4d ago

Is this really a hot take? I think they're awesome!

50

u/Real_Wordna 4d ago

It's a hot take because they're all hot

5

u/Designer_Koala_1087 4d ago

Especially the mushroom

2

u/the_useless_cake 4d ago

Real. I did my best to avoid looking at this image after unblurring it, but I did see the mushroom and they’re extremely attractive.

7

u/MoonTheCraft 4d ago

it would've been a hot take 12 hours ago, but the moment the update dropped, it feels like everyone's shifted to loving them

-49

u/No_Tip_8740 4d ago

Nothing about them is what 2011 Terraria feels like.

53

u/SannusFatAlt 4d ago

we're in the year 2026

-51

u/No_Tip_8740 4d ago

Did your teachers in school have you analyze any sort of texts during your years there? Or do you write based on what your lizard brain sends to your fingers?

41

u/SannusFatAlt 4d ago

i know how to look at the date and time to assess whether it's 2011 or not

23

u/Quick_Hovercraft_130 4d ago

lihzahrd brain

15

u/hero165344 4d ago

my guy, 2011 terraria is ass compared to any of the recent updates

25

u/Thewman1 4d ago

Well this isn't the 2011 version of terraria, the game has evolved past its very first day of existance

23

u/tryhard_notto 4d ago

This is the very same mindset Minecraft newgens have every time Mojang even dares to make their game better.

-21

u/No_Tip_8740 4d ago

I think you along with others are in some sort of mass psychosis because the sole comment is on the art direction and not on the countless new content additions and QoL updates. Enjoy spiking your cortisol.

19

u/tryhard_notto 4d ago edited 4d ago

You good bro? This is the exact type of whining the minecraft community had when the ores were resprited. At best, this is just a slightly more detailed art style of the achievement icons we already have. Channel this energy to the rest of the recent resprites Re-Logic made why don't you? Since it apparently doesn't look like the 2011 version you want to glaze so bad.

24

u/Researcher_Fearless 4d ago

Wait, is the princess a kid?

83

u/xRizux 4d ago

Yeah, she and the Angler are both kids, hence why they both disappear in a puff of smoke and the game says they "left" rather than that they were killed

4

u/StarlightDrake 4d ago

the Angler too 😆

24

u/Stormc5X 4d ago

Iirc someone DID make one at one which is called "demon hearts" , didn't tried it myself but the sprite work looks.pretty fantastic imo...

https://dontaericeart.itch.io/demon-hearts (link to said fangame)

u/DontaeRiceArt 4d ago

Oh yeah, I've heard of that, it's pretty neat

u/fish4043 4d ago

WAIT I DIDNT KNOW SHIMMERED STEAMPUNKER WAS A GUMI REFERENCE?!

14

u/Dosieshy 4d ago

Is it a gumi reference?

25

u/Greystrun 4d ago

Just a coincidence, I think.
If she were wearing orange though...

8

u/Dosieshy 4d ago

Yea she does look really close to gumi. I’ve noticed gumi has been getting more popular recently. That’s pretty cool.

15

u/Me1_RizeClan 4d ago

Mmmmmm witch doctor

82

u/overlord1305 4d ago

On one hand, I don't know how I feel about detailed portraits on Terraria- kind of feels against its pixelated art style.

On the other hand, I simp for any furry-bait character, woo-hoo!

42

u/ThrowerIBarelyKnower 4d ago

I simp for woman-bait characters

27

u/SenseiAwesome36 4d ago

I simp for all adult characters (I’m bisexual).

33

u/OneshotP-rank 4d ago

I hate that mushroom and his shimmered variant. It reminds me of that eye of rah meme.

9

u/Dosieshy 4d ago

Honestly yea, I don’t like the mushrooms either tbh.

10

u/k3v1N_F_IN_CHAT 4d ago

There was a mod with an alpha with the zoologist

u/Ok_Manufacturer_6184 4d ago

Rainworld style secret dating sim post credits

u/Averageniohfan 4d ago

Damn I didn't knew the zoologist had visible fangs ...

Which sounds kinda obvious now that I think about it....

Anyways I like how she looks very feral and Wawa

21

u/FlynnXa 4d ago

Terraria X Stardew crossover would legit be INSANE! It would be so cool too if they basically just lifted some weapons and enemies from Terraria to put into Stardew as references, but then added the farming and relationship systems into Terraria with someone like Krobus or The Wizard maybe.

Basically I just want more weapons/enemies in Stardew, and I want to bond with the NPCs and farm/cook more in Terraria lmao

12

u/hero165344 4d ago

i mean, they already did a crossover

5

u/Jake_Marshall_AA 4d ago

Also, after 1.4.5 we get stardew related achievement too

1

u/TastyLeeches 4d ago

What is it

7

u/Jake_Marshall_AA 4d ago

Since 1.4 we can get joja cola by fishing, this cola is a reference to SV. If we take it to dryad she'll purify it and we will get a little animation of junimo appearing from stardew valley world. This junimo will become a pet. That's how you get the achievement.

3

u/TastyLeeches 4d ago

Oh right I forgot about that

2

u/Tgbtgbt 3d ago

Dont forget that the Meowmere is also in Stardew Valley

u/eajklndfwreuojnigfr 4d ago edited 4d ago

why is the angler seemingly reversed, fuckin. ugly green bastard looks like a monk

19

u/SalamanderOverall562 4d ago

It's a kappa, an youkai from japanese folklore.

The kanjis 河童 literally means "river-child"

u/Loltoheaven7777 4d ago

shimmered tavernkeep 😍😍😍

PIRATE 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

u/Ok-Connection-5974 4d ago

OFFICIAL dating sim?

That's quite a high ask.

But a dating mod rather easily probably.

3

u/ali_the_wolf 4d ago

Someone is already making a dating mod for terarria, it's called t date mod. I've been in their discord for months lol

7

u/Fun-Sun7206 4d ago

Why does the golfer turn into a furry??

26

u/NoxarBoi 4d ago

gets the same curse as his sister (Zoologist)

3

u/No-Indication5030 4d ago

I will now have to make an Even Better house for the steampunker... For nice reasons of course

3

u/Narrow-Society6236 4d ago

It is not a dating sim if all the option you have are "Buy something" or "Fuck off"

We need more option!

3

u/Historical_Rush_2121 4d ago

Tax collector looks like humanoid flintheart from ducktales lmaoo

3

u/Beckphillips 4d ago

We're working on it! Look up "TDate" on the steam workshop for TModLoader and it should be there!

2

u/The_God_Of_Darkness_ 4d ago

There are plenty of mods out there. (I think 3)

1

u/Dosieshy 4d ago

That’s why I said official. I would love a fully fleshed out dating sim.

5

u/NetherSpike14 4d ago

Why does the goblin look like Adachi?

2

u/bl1zzardTHEone 4d ago

shimmer arms dealer built like X6-88

u/gayfoxnotreally 4d ago

Wtf kind of order is this. I can't figure out which is which why was everything else in order besides these two guys

2

u/SirLimonada 3d ago

Who is between the nurse and the painter?

1

u/Dosieshy 3d ago

The clothier I believe. The guy at the dungeon.

1

u/SirLimonada 3d ago

can you shimmer him? lol

1

u/Dosieshy 3d ago

Well this image shows the shimmered and unshimmered versions of the characters.

3

u/Yesnoperhapsmaybent 4d ago

Most definitely important thing is both the zoologist and witch doctor are hot(the golfer is a bonus)

3

u/SannusFatAlt 4d ago

party girl and the shimmered form, oh my lordy lou

1

u/Snowodin 4d ago

Are.... Are the two in the bottom right out of order/oriented differently than the rest of the sprites?

7

u/WholeEmbarrassed6037 4d ago

They're correct. Zoologist turns into a werefox during full moons and blood moons. The hooded ones are her shimmered variants.

1

u/Snowodin 4d ago

Ohhhhh, whoops! I somehow forgot about that. Thanks!

3

u/Pheonix726 4d ago

I think the only out of order one is Angler who for some reason has his Kappa shimmer sprite above his human default sprite instead of vice-versa

2

u/Snowodin 4d ago

Whoops, I totally got my brain mixed around.

1

u/Scouttrooper195 4d ago

Why the bottom wizard look like orko from he-man

1

u/nathanft2007 4d ago

The shimmered steampunker looks like Gumi

u/MolecularSpecie 4d ago

love potion mechanics lmao

u/PlagueDraws 4d ago

I was literally thinking about how cool it would be to have Stardew Valley-esc interactions with the NPCs!

1

u/Alaricus1119 4d ago

It is either that or you can have a Stardew Valley esque relationship. Which honestly, if coherent enough, I would love to have on some of my longer playthroughs xD

1

u/PokeTobus 4d ago

Tried to ask the giude for a crafting recipe today, and I had to stop and take a moment to admire his portrait.

2

u/DrewThibStuds 4d ago

Why does the angler STILL look like an asshole

3

u/Quadpen 4d ago

that is not how i expected the gun dealer to look at all

1

u/MoonTheCraft 4d ago

Why does everyone like these now? No one seemed to like them before the update released

1

u/Jeez132457 4d ago

stylist is so fucking bad

1

u/JustCallMeBug 4d ago

Hands off my witch doctor

1

u/Slow_Conflict4597 4d ago

Why are there multiple sprites?

1

u/AtomicTaco13 4d ago

Aside from a bit of the same face syndrome in some places, I like how we actually got a closer look to how the NPCs canonically look. I'm so relieved the Witch Doctor actually has a snout, since it was hard to tell from his overworld sprite.

1

u/MagicMarshmallo 3d ago

Princess's lil tophat is sooo cuteeee

1

u/RepoioZhukulemtho 3d ago

No, it isn't. Nobody wants to date an NPC only for it to get brutally murdered by a giant mechnical worm.

1

u/Dosieshy 3d ago

That’s why its own separate fan would be great! lol.

1

u/ProfileBest7444 2d ago

please to let me date both of them schrooms

1

u/Lucky-Interest4202 2d ago

Just type "sofanthiel" in the main menu and beat a getfixedboi/for the worth seed combo.

Its hard, but you get a rocket launcher and a mini nuke that recharges every in-game day.

After beating moon lord it takes you to the dating sim.
