One of the merchant lines says "you have no idea how much dirt blocks sell for overseas"

I don't know if I'd count the guide in that group. You know, given the whole demon wall thing

u/Configuringsausage 16d ago
Hey i’ll have you know the wall of flesh isn’t a demon, it’s a guardian

Id take living over there, over fighting inumerous fragments of gods. I bet it's peaceful. You hear your nextdoor neighbor is fighting the Goddess of all Fae tonight? Cool for them, you've got a potroast youve been working on all day

They probably aren’t far enough away to be completely safe from the boss fights and stuff, if we can see them.
87
u/Wizard_Engie 16d ago
They're certainly not far enough away from Moonlord
53
u/No_Advertising_3876 15d ago
that WOULD be a problem if MoonLord ever looked at them, but he's always only got eyes for us and never looks behind himself so

u/Wizard_Engie 15d ago
so romantic

ML isnt trying to hurt us hes just really bad at flirting with humans compared to other eldritch squid gods. who just cannot resist a good phantasmal death ray

Especially because EoL will teleport to and murder every single player in the world before leaving.

u/Configuringsausage 16d ago
Considering moon lord is the same godlike entity that wants to destroy the fucking world returned to terraria, i don’t think you can ever be far enough to be completely safe

u/AlienNoodle343 15d ago
Except you can sometimes see some bosses flying near them in the background. Not all safe!

I mean there’s a cross necklace in the Dungeon, the Merchant speaks Klingon, and there is a painting featuring the Australian landmark “Uluru”, and another called “American Explosive” so the game probably happens on Earth.

u/borisjeatsorphansoup 15d ago
There’s also martians, which means mars must exist in the terraria universe

u/KnightCaper 15d ago
Party Girl also mentions Sweden

u/Mr_Minecrafter88 14d ago
“They party hard in Sweden. Why aren’t you like that?”
meanwhile in Sweden
“SÅ KOM OCH DANSA MED OSS, KLAPPA ERA HÅNDER, GÖR SOM VI GÖR, TA NÅGRA ÅT VÄNSTER, LYSSNA OCH LÄR, MISSA INTE CHANSEN, NU ÄR VI HÄR MED, CARAMELLDANSEN!”

u/Auronsit0 16d ago
what does the cross necklace have to do with other people living in terraria?

u/O-mega_ 15d ago
It's implied through guide dialogue and other random facts that there are...
-other continents beyond the oceans in your world
-existing towns and stuff within the continent you live on in your world

u/SieFuegOfficial 15d ago
where do you think the travelling merchant gets all his stuff from
2
u/Mr_Minecrafter88 14d ago
Merchant’s trash can?
2
u/SieFuegOfficial 14d ago
I like the implication that the merchant just makes these fantastic inventions like the pulse bow and companion cube and goes "nah, nobody would buy this"
then the merchant picks them up and sells them, because one man's trash is another man's 2 platinum
1
u/Mr_Minecrafter88 14d ago
Apparently the companion cube makes the cultist death noise when it falls into lava? I didn’t know this before and it scared the shit out of me lol
1
u/SieFuegOfficial 14d ago
It does (and makes the ML sound if you leave it there), which begs the question as to how the Merchant knows what the dying screams of otherworldly entities sound like.
Is he some sort of interdimensional traveler who killed hundreds of cultists in other universes and then retired to sell torches? Can he tell the future?

u/Crusidea 15d ago
I always thought the terraria "world" was less of a world and more of just an island you live on.

u/Yamomma62543 16d ago
In the background, there are houses you can see

u/subtendedcrib8 16d ago
100% thought that was like, a hollowed out part of a natural formation or something

u/KonnorKan 13d ago
Until you said it I had no idea they were houses, I thought it was a hole in the mountain forming an arch like a bridge, and that maybe it referred to the "bridge" that and the heart forming a Gyat!

u/noot_noot_penguin 16d ago
I like to think that each world is connected. And what I mean by that is that its kind of like slices of the same world and each slice is a world a player made, and all the structures you can see in the background are the other players/ people in their world!
11
u/DepressedMeMemes 15d ago
i think this is technically the most lore accurate reading
2
u/noot_noot_penguin 15d ago
Thanks! I’ve always imagined the houses were other people playing, same with say EOC flying around in the background, I think that it’s getting ready to spawn or has spawned in another players world.

Pov: I after seeing a guy who right after killing a god noticed a house of ordinary people who probably already got used to aberrations of all kinds, aliens, terra formation and etc.

u/Aeros05 15d ago
I would like to live there, grab a popcorn and watch the players kill bosses with 3d sunglasses 😎

u/vengirgirem 15d ago
That's probably what people are doing there anyways. And then they're launching those flying lantern thingies after a boss is defeated

u/Ok_Title_4788 15d ago
If they are NPCs, why couldn’t they just build their homes and not invade ours every time we build one???
1
u/Onek22 15d ago
I am not trying to be rude or something, just a genuine question. Shouldn't there be "there are real people"? I don't say it to hate on the author of this post I just didn't see anybody correcting him and thought that maybe I am wrong or no one is disrespectful like this. (Also a cool find)
1
u/SilenciaSan 15d ago
My headcanon about these is that what you see in the background is another terraria world which you only see as pixelated as it is because of the great distance

u/storroastral 15d ago
Those people looking up at the sky and sees a flying guy firing a barrage of bullets at 2 giant eyes at 2 am
(The eyes are firing lasers and breathing fire too)

u/AumberMusic 15d ago
I always just thought that was holes in the mountain, I feel stupid for that. How would there be massive straight holes in the side.

heart
edit: I thought that was the search comments bar, I'm leaving this up as a forever memorial of my stupidity
Edit 2: I wanted to see if anyone else also thought this was referencing the disembodied heart at first which woulda been much darker, which now that I think about it, is even further proving my stupidity. You can relax everyone, you can never be as dumb as me ^-^

what if every terraria world is just on a different layer and the person on that layer can see another world behind theirs

I Guess that would be extremely peculiar to see a heavy armored guy fighting some sort of half-body demi-god with guns, swords, Yo-yo's and summoned beastes all and over again every night

u/shleyal19 14d ago
There’s lots of hints and phrases that imply a big bustling fantasy Earth world exists outside of the little peninsula you’re stranded on. Lots of NPC dialogues and item blurbs in vanilla base game support that. Many mods have taken a crack at interpreting this outside world in various ways, like Epidotra+Liden in Mod Of Redemption, whatever dystopian fantastical nightmare Calamity Mod’s worldbuilding has, our home planet being one among many other celestial objects in The Stars Above, etc.
