I started a new game yesterday. Honestly I havent seen anything new yet the game look and feel the same as i remember several month ago
In the new game i unlocked copper/tin ect and have a basic house ect so we are talking the start of the game. I dont know what changed later on but will be interesting to see.
But i also only visited 2 different biomes and defeted the first boss ect.
Just saying so far no complaints from me.

ps. I did notise that it was allot more easy to find the second boss than last time i played.. all Thombs i visited had a a hint, several month ago when i played last time it was rare to find the hints this fast.
