Out of curiosity can you define "no boring intrusive story"? Because personally I'm big on storylines, so if they nail that part then that takes the game to a whole other level
Yeah, no story period. Which is good for some people, not so much for others
I tried playing Terraria but gave up after an hour or so, precisely because I expected at least some kind of story and there wasn't. It was also very awkward to control with a mouse and keyboard, I think it's really supposed to be played with a controller. I might try it again now that I've got one, and less expectations
In some games storyline matters, in others... not so much. Games with a storyline trend to be less replayable in my experience. One exception I can think of is This War of Mine, that game is really depressing.
