weed combine

Ever since I was like... I dont know, seven or eight, I loved minecraft and terraria. I had minecraft on the ps4, and terraria on my 3ds. Both games hold a special place in my heart. In minecraft, the classic christmas and halloween mashup maps. Both of them are incredibly nostalgic to me. I played the other mashups that came with but these two hit HARD. Terraria was interesting too. I always LOVED the corruption biome. The music, the aesthetics were well designed and the specific boss for it was really fun. The crimson? Not sooo much but Its okay. I preferred the corruption by far. So I only played corruption worlds on my 3ds, to the point where i forgot a lot of things about the crimson. Like.... I dont remember if the crimson has a second boss rn and im still playing terraria. I played it for hours today. I never was able to beat the wall of flesh despite being technically maxed out there and having a highway. I think its because I ran out of queen bee hives... or something. Pretty sure there are limited per world. Couldnt get beenades unless i loaded up a new world i think.

Both games are really good, and I occasionally come back to minecraft, but I feel like the updates for minecraft aren't "good anymore."
When Markus Persson created Minecraft, He wasn't expecting it to become the greatest game of all time. He was making an infiniminer clone. Very bare bones. There was space to add new things, like the end of the game, the nether, etcetera. But eventually they ran out of updates at the caves and cliffs update. They haven't added anything legitimately gamechanging... even before that update. Minecraft has a lot of features that arent fully fledged. The archaelogy system is bare bones and extremely niche, the sniffers are virtually useless, and so much more. Events dont really happen except raids, occasional zombie sieges which dont count as events, just nights when lots of zombies spawn, and the every 2 blue moons superrare events like skeleton jockeys, or skeleton horse traps that are slightly amusing at most. Then, the lack of bosses. You dont really get anything special after killing the ender dragon. Sure, elytras let you fly, but thats all it has to offer. I dont even remember what dragons breath is for. The wither is something that is very basic on its own. My favorite of the bosses. It feels like it really COULD have more to it aside from the generic shooting cubes at you that explode. It doesnt have any phases or anything. Its not really worth the pain of trying to summon it. How are you even supposed to know how to summon it in the first place? Like, you have to place things in very specific areas

Terraria on the other hand has a plethora of bosses that can be grinded and easily resummoned that make it a little more fun.

In terms of building, Terraria, while being a 2.5 dimensional game, gives extra detail to blocks. You can turn blocks into slopes, flattened, etc. Minecraft doesn't really feature much in terms of building. Yes, you can create absolutely impressive things, but building things to look appealing requires a lot of creativity and time grinding for materials, but the progression cap in terraria is extremely high, to the point where you can mine out an entire medium world in perhaps a few hours, because you have the materials to do so. Minecraft feels like a creative game but limits you, and makes you spend a long time trying to find materials when in terraria, you can see through walls.

Terraria also has a lot more interactions because all the systems like farming, alchemy, and whatnot are more fully fleshed out

In conclusion, minecrafts simplicity appeals to children more easily

Holy yap

yes

real

Srsly tho that's a long message (I will read it tho)

I dont know
its my random ahh rant
