“There” is a location. “They’re” is a contraction of “they are”.
Their not worried about it
Yore wrong

I think it’s just a matter of they’re priorities.
Maybe it’s a greeting?
Hey there! both good
On Reddit I always assumed that so many people can’t be that
stupiduneducated and make these obvious mistakes for engagement bait.
But now that we are on Lemmy, and engagement gets you nowhere, I’m losing faith in humanity at a faster pace.Maybe english is their second language. (Copium)
In my experience, these mistakes are made primarily by native speakers. Because they learned it by hearing and can’t tell the difference. Those who learned English as a second language learn through books and are explicitly taught the difference.
You would HATE being a person who could read in the Middle English era. There was no standardized spelling, people used many different conventions/regional spellings, and it was mostly either phonetic spelling or random French bullshit. Also some earlier writers used really conservative spelling to emulate Old English. It was the wild west out there.
For example, here’s a (not comprensive) list of the variant spellings you may see for each second person pronoun:
Singular Nominative 2P:
thou, thoue, thow, thowe, thu, thue, þeu, þeou, thouȝ, thugh, thogh, ðhu; þou, þoue, þow, þowe, þu, þue, þouȝ, þugh, þogh, þo
(after alveolars and in contractions): tou, towe, touȝ, tu, to, te
Singular Objective 2P:
the, thee, thei, thi, thie, thy, ðe, de, þeo, þhe, yhe, ye, þe, þee, þi, þy
(after alveolars and in contractions): te
Singular Genitive, Dative, and Possessive 2P:
(usually before consonants): thi, thy, thei, they, yhi, yi, þhi; þei, þey, þy
(usually before vowels and “h”): thin, thyn, thine, thyne, thien, thyen, thein, theyn, thinne, yin; þin, þyn, þine, þyne, þinne; þines
(female referent): þinre, þire, þinen
(after “t” or “d”): ti, ty, tin, tyn, tine, tines
Plural Nominative 2P:
ye, yee, yeȝ, yhe, yie, iye, iȝe, hye, hie; ȝe, ȝee, ȝhe, ȝie, ȝeo; ge, gie, geo
Plural Objective 2P:
you, yow, youe, yowe, yo, yoe, yogh, yau, yaw, yeu, yew, yhu, yu, yw, yhow, yhou; ȝou, ȝow, ȝouȝ, ȝowȝ, ȝowe, ȝo, ȝu, ȝw, ȝuw, ȝue, ȝiou, ȝeu, ȝew, ȝewe, ȝau, ȝaw, ȝhou, ȝiu, ȝeou, ȝehw, ȝhowe; gou, gu, giu, geu, geau; ou, owe, eou, eow, eow, eo, eu, euwȝ, æu, hou, heou, heu
Plural Genitive & Dative 2P:
your, youre, yowr, yowre, ȝour, ȝoure yowyr, yowur, yor, yur, yure, yeur, yhure, yhour, yhoure; ȝowyr, ȝowur, ȝor, ȝore, ȝur, ȝure, ȝiore, ȝhour, ȝhoure, ȝaure, ȝiure, ȝiwer, ȝeur, ȝeure, ȝeuer, ȝeuwer, ȝewer, ȝewere; gur, gure, giur, giure, giuor, giuer, giuwer, giwer; ihore, ihoire, iure, eour, eoure, eouer, eouwer, eouwere, eower, eowwer, eore, eur, eure, euwer, euwere, eowrum, æure, our, oure, or, ore, ouer, ouwer, ouwere, ower, owur, hour
(early ME): þinen (genitive), þinum (dative), þirum (dative fem.)
Plural Possessive 2P:
youres, yourez, yours, youris, yurs, yowres, yowris, yowrys, yourn, youren; ȝours, ȝoures, ȝouris, ȝourys, ȝowers, ȝores, ȝures, ȝuris, ȝhurs, ȝourn, ȝouren; eowræs

I obsessed with terraria for a while but never really bothered to try Minecraft. Just a matter of taste.
They’re more different than people might expect. I like both, but they’re very different experiences.
If you want to make cool things, you play Minecraft. If you want to do cool things, you play Terraria. In Minecraft, it’s all about gathering resources and building, and the combat is an obstacle on the way to that. In Terraria, it’s about combat, and you gather resources and reshape the world to help you fight bosses.
Minecraft is primarily a sandbox game with RPG elements, and Terraria is primarily an RPG with sandbox elements
You ever think about how weird it is that RPG means two different genres of game depending on whether it’s a video game?
I bought Terraria when I was really into Minecraft. Didn’t like it at first because the only Minecraft thing is “pick up blocks and crafting”, but once I gave it a fair shake I absolutely loved it.
Fuck, now I have the game music stuck in my head from thinking about the game!
Doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo, rii tii tii tiiiii
I have too many games to try terraria, the list of shit I paid for but haven’t played is already too big
I’ve only got 314 hours in it and not even half of the achievements. 😭
Now that is a mood and a half
They are, but your spelling is embarrassing.
Hey there, spelling good. Lacking punctuation.
That must be a different game then, I’ve played Terraria but never Terrerria.
for anybody else who has no idea what this is, it’s a Terraria mod
Dwarf Fortress.
I’m both good.
Hey there, both good!
They really don’t even overlap.
Freeform building and exploring, crafting, survival, pixel art, endless gameplay. There and definitely a lot of similarities, especially compared to say CS:GO.
Oh, and don’t forget the insane modding communities.
Even though I love Minecraft, it’s undeniable that Terraria actually has a lore, and the adventure part of it is much, much better than Minecraft’s.
Oh, they definitely go about everything differently, but it’s a relatively similar difference.
Like Chimpanzees and Aye Ayes. Both share the majority of their features, being primates, but they use them very differently.
You could have just described pal world minus the pixel art.
Probably the only reason I did not get into Terraria as an experienced Minecraft player is that my brain really hates 2D worlds.
I realize I miss out on many wonderful games, but how the hell do you feel comfortable restricted to one plane? This constantly makes me as a character feel I’m out in the open from two sides, and God knows what’s there.
Maybe it’s some weird quirk, but my brain is strictly 3-dimensional.
okay but in 3d space you are open from more sides, in terraria at least you can see those 2 sides, in minecraft theres always behind, above, and to the sides
Yes, but my brain subconsciously interprets 2D worlds as ones in which there are front and back (away from screen and in front of it), and I just can’t look there and see what’s there.
Like if you’d build a house with floor, two walls on the opposite sides, and the ceiling, and would decide to completely ignore that your house is actually a tube and two sides are wide open to the outside world.
Sounds like FEZ, where the gameplay is in 2D, but you need to move in 3D.
Yeah, kinda captures the idea.
Do you feel the same about top down 2d? (Factorio, Stardew Valley, etc.)?
If you think about it, sidescrollers are just top down with a weird gravity.
Top down is better, but I’d still rather have even pseudo-3D (like in many strategy games for example, especially older ones).
But yeah, I often challenge my mind thinking that “down” is very arbitrary and is just normally takes along the weight force vector :D
From my experience, Valheim is pretty close to Terraria in the general feeling of progression and exploration. While being a 3D game, albeit with a third-person camera
Have you seen new gamers try to navigate 3D spaces? 2D is much more accessible to a lot of folks.
I never challenged that notion - it’s just that for me personally 2D is a nightmare and 3D is not.
Also quite different. I think Terraria is objectively better than base game Minecraft, though, after their respective updates (which I blame Microsoft monetization). When modded, they’re both great games.
I still love working against the clock to stop corruption from taking over my Terraria planet, though. Reclaiming land is a thing I like, but there are mods like that in Minecraft too that are really fun of you’re into it.
…as opposed to what, exactly? I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone compare the two
When Terraria came out, the first reaction some people had was “so, it’s just a minecraft knock-off, but lame, because it’s 2D?”
This endured about a millisecond until people noticed what Teraria was about.
That was before Minecraft’s concepts were adapted in so many games.
Wasnt terraria fully released before minecraft?
Edit: the full release, not alpha or beta
Minecraft released its’ alpha in 2009. Terraria came out in 2011.
Spinks has credited Minecraft as direct inspiration. Terraria was first released among the gobs and gobs of minecraft clones, yet it was obvious that Terraria wasn’t a clone.
As for “Full Release”, Terraria was first released as a fully working game, with it’s 1.0 being the first public release in May 2011. Minecraft 1.0.0 was November 2011. Minecraft’s first public release was Classic 0.0.11a in May 2009.
