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.
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
