an old friend brought me to terraria a year or 2 ago, he carried me through the whole game, despite that i still come back every now and again on my own. and i think terraria IS a good game. HOWEVER...i have 2 problems with it. and they are smaller nitpicks at best. if you like fighting bosses,mining ALOT, and maybe building cool 2d bases? go for it. buy the game. its great. its always been great.

that said, my 2 problems? crafting benches as a whole, and despite being able to put a chest ontop of a platform, i cannot put a chest and platform in the same block so i can make a much CLEANER looking chest stack for storage purposes, like theres always that 1 block gap despite there being plenty of room in the sprite of the chest to put a platform there, so instead of being able to put another chest directly ontop of another by merging 2 platforms and the chest together (allowing for much cleaner vertical storage) i am forced to place the platform ABOVE the chest, and then place a chest ontop of that platform, meaning theres a 1 block gap that makes the entire thing look...bulky, for lack of a better word.


as for the crafting bench problem im having? i like that we can craft so many items, i also like that theres such a wide variety of themed benches. but thats not the problem, the problem is that all of those benches take up so many space, and you have so many items that require you to have multiple benches at the same time nearby to craft them. theres a mod that fixes it by making a combined bench station, or you can use magical storage?? but those are mods, and i'd just like to see something in the vanilla game that helps fix this or reduces the need for copious amounts of space, because lets face it. a whole room dedicated to EVERY crafting bench is ugly, and hard to use. it wouldent be so bad if we coulb combine even a FEW of the simpler or vaguely related benches together. maybe not in the same way that those combined teirs of station are, maybe you still need multiple. but for example of a possible solution, look at the items you have that require multiple benches, find a common theme between what some of the benches do, like the living loom and the honey dispenser are both "organic" things. make an organic bench that combines the two, have another for forging that can handle all sorts of metal stuffs, mixing the furnace/hellforge with the anvil and a normal workstation. you get the idea, even if we end up with a bunch of these, if it takes up less space and or is easier to use? it would still be GREATLY appreciated. so please, devs. if you read this, at the very least consider it, i dont want to feel like i need a crafting room in every base that's ever expanding with all these benches
