I’ve finished Starbound twice. Tried Terraria because the popular opinion, as you say, was always that it was better than Starbound, but honestly can’t get more than a few hours into Terraria before getting bored.
Starbound has much better worldbuilding than Terraria. The races all have interesting motivations, backstories, rivalries, settlements, artifacts, themes. Terraria is better in many aspects, but the themes of the game are pretty generic.
The worldbuilding is great, which makes me miss the beta days when every race had their unique origins. They story ended up just doing a surface level tour of each race rather than exploring them in depth.
No offense, but Starbound doesn’t hold a candle to Terraria. I’ve played a lot of both. You can mod the shit out of Terraria, too.
