i've been playing terraria lately and i have to say i love it a hell of a lot, found it to be much more enjoyable than minecraft. long story short, i played it with a friend , they made the witch character in front and sticked to magic items. i made the afro guy on the back and sticked to ranged items, especially guns. we grew attached to the characters just by playing as them.

(I exaggerated mine a tad bit on the cool side)
