I'unno, when I was playing thorium the storage/inventory management didn't really feel much different than vanilla. There's more, so obviously there's going to be more storage, but it's not particularly out of line compared to the base game.

Normal tote around by the end was whatever weapons I felt like using, maybe one swap in armor set (on top of the two you can wear), stack of health pots, stack of buildy stuff, and the miscellany (mirror, maybe fishing, various detection junk, maybe another weapon or two (usually summons), maybe another accessory or two, etc.). Torch somewhere in there. Toolbar was generally full, along with the 2-4 columns on the left of my inventory, leaving a bit over half-ish free to fill with junk. Which is more or less exactly what my vanilla end-game looked like. Thorium introduced maybe a half column or column worth of extra stuff-I-carry-around and it could have totally been significantly fewer if I hadn't been perpetually tooling around with new junk.

Now, junk wise thorium does introduce a buncha' crap one only need one of two sets of, so there's more stuff-you-pick-up-exploring-that-you-trash-or-vendor, and you'll probably have another chest or three for mod stuff, but... I didn't much feel the need to go substantially out of my way to accommodate it. Like said, inventory wise you might have 3-6 ish new stickarounds (and some stuff gets replaced or compacted, so the net increase may be smaller) and storage wise you'll want a few more chests than you otherwise would, but that's about it. 'Bout the same amount of pressure, more or less.

... though yeah, if you felt constrained by vanilla terraria's inventory, thorium certainly isn't going to be better. If trashing stacks of building material or obsolete/unneeded cruft when you're meandering around bothers you you're in for a bad time.

Probably did have trouble with it, but there is an argument to run the domkill nations with good scales. Mostly just to squeeze out as much gold as possible before everything kicks it, hopefully so you can spam castle/temple in as many provinces as you can manage, to maximize freespawn production. The productivity is probably the closest thing to out of line for a variously enthusiastic attempt at that.

... other major part isn't really applicable to single player, but it can also be an attempt to make your nation not quite as much of a pain in the arse to have a neighbor. Attempt to mitigate the likelihood/quickness of other players ganging up on you before you dominion ruins everything it touches, heh.

Black hole cannon's pretty neat, so long as I'm not confusing it with a yet higher tier singularity something or other. Don't recall it really being a primary weapon, though. The shot lingers for a quite a while, iirc, so it's more like an AoE turret gun or somethin'. Can hurt pretty bad if you land the shot on something, but you probably won't be shooting it that often, as terraria weapons go.

... totally could be misremembering it, though. Seem to remember two guns with similar effect, one that flew forward and pierced (so it could drag things away from you) and one that hit something and then left a deathball in its place. Might be confusing the deathball with the different deathball that fired lightning bolts or whatev' at things (not the vanilla magic orb thing, mind. Much deadlier.).

goddamnitall sod this administration that asking is something you should probably to do

Did he actually use ipeen? Like, not paraphrase or hyperbole but there actually being something out there that you can quote with the bloody POTUS using that exact wording?

The walls are a lie.

Castlevania speedruns can be absurd in all the right ways, some days.

Don't they usually have a barely visible x in the top right, too? Might be confusing it with CoE. Could swear there's a keyboard shortcut, though. Probably escape, can't recall.
