[@Dhapizza]

something i find funny is how people say its impossible to beat terraria without the wiki AFTER going and looking at the wiki, not realizing that 100% of what they read there is either not obligatory or you can notice/the game hints at it clearly. The first time I completed terraria, I didn't even know there was a wiki. I used some terrible weapons, and ignored classes completely fully by accident, but it was THE most fun I've ever had in a videogame. I built stuff, I endeared myself to the npcs, and completed the game in a way i was satisfied with. Terraria is also meant to be beaten at a slow pace, but since people love to spoil themselves with the wiki, usually they hurry to go objective through objective, instead of taking their time. They forget terraria is a sandbox game.

[@SenzuMike]

You do make a valid point, but at the same time, I did exactly what you did when I first played Terraria. That's why I used to disliked Terraria. It only when I returned to Terraria with the resources such as the wiki did I actually enjoy Terraria for the first time. You noted that Terraria is the type of game to be beaten at a slow pace, which I do agree with, however, that slow pacing isn't something that isn't something you compromise by looking at the Terraria wiki. For me, working towards a goal is a big part of what keeps video games fun for me, as well as being able to forging my own path just by exploring the world and coming across new abilities along the way. On the surface, Terraria seems like the perfect match for a player like me, but whenever I'd actually play Terraria, all I'd do is explore the world, get some cool items, and then stop playing the game due to sheer disinterest, sometimes even before I beat the Eye of Cthulu. With the wiki however, I'm actually given a tangible goal to achieve I simply wouldn't be given with vanilla Terraria, and I'm able to theorize what the next abilities should be in my arsenal. Yes, Terraria is a sandbox game, but not on the same level of a game like Minecraft, as Terraria is much more comparable to a Choose Your Own Adventure game. This isn't me trying to devalue or disagree with your argument, though what I am trying to claim is that playing Terraria as you did requires a very specific mindset, one that I'd wager many don't share.

[@GodMineptas]

I don't know anything about Terraria, I I'll look at the Wiki when I play

[@kelvin-gp5hv]

Yeah. that is an excellent analysis, Terraria is A Niceful Sandbox game, And you can use the sandbox factor in many ways, fishing, building ( Its have a niceful building system ), exploring or fighting with montser and bosses, But all taking a slow and good pace to enjoy more, Pples in general pretends to only focus in boss rushing, Thats why they get bored fast.

terraria is better in my opinion, it provides way more content, different biomes to explore, new items to craft/collect, even upon death you dont loose your items so you can come back and try again, but in mc when you die you loose all your items and that can be frustrating, also about creativity terraria has thousands of blocks and different decorations I personally think builds in this game are more beautiful, so just in my opinion terraria is better in every aspect🫡

[@Azillia]

Terraria does have mediumcore, so if you are wanting a minecraft like experience, you can play on mediumcore

[@Croc_Edit100]

Ok I respect

[@Ethan_Cubed]

"more content" is a confusing phrase. you see, while terraria does have more "content" (blocks, items, creatures, enemies, etc.) , what minecraft lacks in features, it provides in experience. building a kingdom, going on an adventure, getting your first pet, raiding a challenging structure, defeating a powerful mob. even the little things like completing your first house, protecting your village from a raid or a zombie invasion, getting your ideal armour and weapon set, collecting a rare item, etc. everyu little and big thing you do in minecraft is a (atleast semi-) unique experience, which just makes you feel really attached to your world and all the mobs living in it. so yes, terraria has"more content" but minecraft has more personal experiences and adventures..

[@Ethan_Cubed]

also, in minecraft you can turn on "keepInventory"

[@AK-op3vc]

Almost everything you listed as unique experiences in minecraft are the same in terraria lol.

[@chemreal]

somethings to note when playing terraria for the first time: 1. understand that exploring is your top priority at early game 2. the guide, while being hated by veterans is extremely useful. knowing how to interact with him properly is very benificial 3. try your best to go semi-blind, as it will make progressing the game much more satisfying (e.g. watching a guide on how to progress without spoiling too much) 4. be patient

[@EMan-xj5cz]

I didn’t figure out that the guide’s crafting menu didn’t just tell me how to craft in terraria until I watched a video well after my first playthrough

I didn't scratch the surface of Minecraft either.

[@firesteve47]

​@@SenzuMike you are correct in that statement but also didn't even attempt to beat terraria in any way. You did however fully beat Minecraft even though it was a speed run. I'm not besmirching anyone's opinions but do recommend you make a more in depth video showcasing all aspects of both games including building and late game. Late game is the time when terraria is the most fun and when your character really shines. Your statement in saying it isn't for casuals is most likely correct but you have to be patient to learn how to play the game. You also have to consider that terraria doesn't end after you beat the game and servers and building are a thing. Character optimizations can also provide many hours of more content. In my personal opinion coming from someone who has over 4k hours in each game terraria is a better game with the devs still adding absurd amounts of content in each update.

[@SenzuMike]

​@@firesteve47In the video, I already explained Terraria's core gameplay mechanics through it's more basic features, as yes, while Terraria does get more complicated and gives you far more choice on how to approach the game as you keep going, it still relies on the fundamental aspects which make the early game so good. Me speedrunning Minecraft's Survival Mode is meant to illustrate the lack of content in Minecraft, and how it's focus is on other aspects of the game, meanwhile in Terraria, I only beat the first boss to show how it's focus is on progression, and how the game is much more thought out than Minecraft. If anything, after thinking it through, I believe I showed too little of Minecraft, only showcased it's weakest aspect whereas with Terraria I showcased it's strongest.

[@averyhall3916]

@@SenzuMikethe first boss in terraria is no where near enough to cover the entire game, you should have at very least made it to hard mode considering that’s when the game picks up in progression again, hard mode is faster paced and you get way better items

[@SenzuMike]

I mean, at least in my view, Terraria is 'too complicated'. As I mentioned in this video, it's nearly impossible to play Terraria, at least in my experience, without a walkthrough since the world is so large and there's so much to do. You have to also keep in mind that not everyone had the privilege of growing up with video games, most aren't in the "gaming fandom" like we are, so design decisions we might intrinsically understand are ones that the majority may not. All that being said, there is zero way anyone is calling Terraria too hard unless they're picking a difficulty that's too difficult for them.

@@BiancaVargas-fn7go Yeah, but neither is Minecraft. Neither game is realistically possible without looking up what to do.

[@VixYW]

The thing about Minecraft's freedom is that it's kinda illusory. You can do anything you want, sure, but no matter what you want to do, you are forced to go trough the same resource gathering loop over and over again which gets old pretty fast. What's the point of you making your own end goal if 80% of the journey is the same no matter what? But in Terraria, you have so many different approaches to the challenges the game gives you. The usual path in the beginning is to mine, but you can totally get away by not doing it at all. You can progress with loot dropped by enemies, or even with stuff you can get by fishing. This in my opinion is true freedom, and it is something survival Minecraft lacks severely.

[@SenzuMike]

Creative mode, adventure maps, servers like Hypixel, if you wanna go there as well, mods which can completely transform your gaming experience. I stated within this video that Minecraft's survival mode is inferior to Terraria's, as it undoubtedly is. Beyond just the freedom aspect you brought up, Terraria also has better combat, progression, the ability to account for multiple types of player, and overall, limits it's scope as to not overwhelm the player with the sheer amount of options, or give so many that every option has numerous oversights. Trying to compare Minecraft and Terraria in this way is like saying that Super Mario Maker 2 is worse than Super Mario Bros. 3 because the campaign in Super Mario Maker 2 is worse. It just doesn't work that way. Sorry if this comment comes off as aggressive at all, I'm just tired of seeing the same few arguments again and again -_-

[@VixYW]

@@SenzuMike No, I get it. I was only talking about specifically the freedom you have in survival in particular. You can get past that barrier yourself if you're willing to go trough the hops to do so, but not everyone is. IMO Minecraft would become a better game if it just gave us multiple ways to tackle the resource issue. I mean, it kinda already have with villages, but those are arguably even more tedious than mining over and over. It's no wonder the vast majority of mods ever since the dawn of the game focused on automation.

I think a big misconception people have with Terraria is thinking that the bosses are the main focus, while the main focus is actually growing stronger, exploring, building, and using cool weapons. The bosses are an extra addon to help enjoyment. There isn't really a set order to beat the bosses either, even in hardmode, with a lot of the bosses being purely optional. tldr; bosses arent the main focus of Terraria like people tend to believe, rather, building, exploring, and growing stronger is.

[@enozlliks7794]

I will say that unfortunately a lot of Terraria players play like the bosses are the main focus(I mostly notice this with modded playthroughs though). They'll get a bunch of QoL mods that basically just speedrun the time between bossfights.

[@the_seer_0421]

​​​@@enozlliks7794yeah, I'm not a big fan of most of the "qol" mods either as lot of them just skip parts of the core gameplay entirely. I'm fine with the ones like magic storage which is pretty much a necessity for larger scale mods like calamity that have a lot of items and you are like me who doesn't like to throw away anything. But some people seem to miss the point of the game. Bosses are just half of the fun, the other half is exploring world and getting stronger.

Minecraft is better at creativity and and community terraria is better at progression and exploration. Yes Minecraft is 3d but I’d argue the biomes in Minecraft are kinda boring considering all they really do (for the most part) is give you new blocks where as terraria will give you biome specific drops and bosses. But terraria can’t give you the depth and different angles to have amazing builds, some people argue terraria has more building stuff but really big terraria builds kinda don’t look like much unless you actually built it yourself. In short if you wanna fight, explore and upgrade seamlessly with moments of adrenaline anger and triumph then play terraria. If you want a simple, creative and community experience with just about any feelings because it’s so free.

@@SenzuMike i played a few hours of terraria pvp, and its not exactly as simple as pve Im not sure how to compare it to mimecraft, minecraft has a whole other dimension to it, while terraria has accessories that can increase your movement, and at different stages of the game pvp can be different Its hard to compare since both forms of pvp are drastically different

[@Azillia]

Although i will say that landing hits in terraria doesnt feel as, rewarding If someone has a sheild that gives them resistance to knockback, sometimes its hard to tell if you hit them or not I say sometimes, there are sound effects, but your attack feels like it lacks impact Especially if your weapon peirces, ive plaued alot of pedguins terraria server, and one gameode has a weapon that peirces enemies and walls the vile thorn, its a post eye of cthulhu weapon Hitting someone with it while they have anti knockback doesnt feel as impactful compared to hitting someone in minecraft, shooting someone in mimecratt, ect. Thats just one example

[@SenzuMike]

I see what you mean. I myself haven't actually played Terraria PvP, so I can't speak about it's quality in comparison to Minecraft, though I feel that 3D games by default are much more suited for PvP interactions than 2D, at least in the traditional 1v1 scenario.

Started with Minecraft, loved Minecraft, put thousands of hours into Minecraft, then found terraria and ended up putting waaay more time into that game instead. I wish I could play Minecraft like it was my first time but when I start a new world the since of exploration doesn't last long where as when I start a new terraria world I still get that same feeling I did all those years ago. Little tip, but if you find a part in terraria too difficult try getting a friend to help you beat overcome it. You'll see what I mean

[@JinBuu_]

I think Terraria is better, it has way more content, way more bosses, Minecraft only has like, the dragon and wither and the wither is optional, Terraria has way more items, weapons, tools, armour, mobs, and ACCESSORIES! You can mention, “Oh but they added netherite” I hardly think it’s a necessity unless you’re doing PvP it’s basically useless and it’s a bit underwhelming. Not to mention, Minecraft’s updates are horrible, they hardly add anything, and when they do, nobody likes it. They have a mob vote, instead of just adding ALL OF THOSE THINGS which would be better, they only decide to add ONE. Minecraft’s updates are always taking forever, only to show up with hardly any content, the last GOOD update was probably back around caves and cliffs and the nether update, but with Terraria, it’s constantly being worked on and every update has added significant changes and improvements, and features. I feel like the only thing Minecraft has over Terraria is it being 3D but that’s only because of the type of game it is. I do enjoy Minecraft now and then, but it honestly gets really boring after a bit, but with Terraria I haven’t had that problem, Terraria has so much replayability, and that’s proven with the horrendous amount of hours some people have lol. That’s all I can think of for the moment if I think of anything else I might add it, but that’s basically my argument

[@SenzuMike]

"Creative mode, adventure maps, servers like Hypixel, if you wanna go there as well, mods which can completely transform your gaming experience. I stated within this video that Minecraft's survival mode is inferior to Terraria's, as it undoubtedly is. Beyond just the freedom aspect you brought up, Terraria also has better combat, progression, the ability to account for multiple types of player, and overall, limits it's scope as to not overwhelm the player with the sheer amount of options, or give so many that every option has numerous oversights. Trying to compare Minecraft and Terraria in this way is like saying that Super Mario Maker 2 is worse than Super Mario Bros. 3 because the campaign in Super Mario Maker 2 is worse. It just doesn't work that way. Sorry if this comment comes off as aggressive at all, I'm just tired of seeing the same few arguments again and again -_-" - A reply I made 5 days ago.

[@shibainu2528]

Hear me out. While the survival modes are pretty similar with many comparisons to be made, Minecraft is more of an engine *for* games while Terraria is a game in of itself. Think about it, in Minecraft, you have datapacks, massive servers with unique gamemodes, and hundreds of maps with different gimmicks to them (Skyblock, Droppers, Diversity, Confusing Cubes) that make you forget that Minecraft's default gamemode is survival. Terraria, while it *does* have Journey mode and a bunch of maps on the workshop, they are usually limited to the tools given by the game, which is to say, not much. (For example, you can't stop players from breaking the map with their starter equipment, you must ask them not to. You can't make unique trades for the NPCs, you must ask the player to limit themselves) Hell, just look at Terraria PVP and you will quickly realize that the equipment isn't very good at defeating other players. Come to think of it, it's like a quote from "Getting Over It" where the longer an obstacle was created during the developing process, the more it "solidified" to a point where if you wanted to change something in any way, you had to tear it all down with an excavator. Minecraft is malleable, you can shape it however you want. Terraria is firm, you can try to bend it a bit but you won't get far. But when you *do* look at the plain gameplay, they do have a lot of similarities. In Terraria, you depend on the guide NPC to teach you the basics, and figure out the rest by exploration such as killing a voodoo demon above lava by accident. In Minecraft, you might depend on the achievements list to give you a general idea of what you need / can do, you might stumble upon a ruined portal and decide to fix it up with some obsidian and use the flint and steel you found in a nearby chest. And besides, what says you *need* to get into hardmode in Terraria? You could just ignore the Wall of Flesh entirely and play the game like it was back in 1.0, similar to how you can ignore most of the stuff in Minecraft and play it like it was in an early build.

I dont know if its fair defeating the final boss of minecraft yet only the first of fiften bosses in terraria?

Hey thanks. Minecraft and Terraria are both very fun games.

[@SenzuMike]

I agree. And to respond to your earlier inquiry, by technicality, yes, it is unfair, but I have played both Minecraft and Terraria to completion. Since I have played Terraria to completion, I'm more so using the journey to Terraria's first boss to put a magnifying glass on the patterns which make Terraria so good, rather than analyzing the journey to the first boss itself.

[@noahpatterson5430]

Ok, the claim that you need the wiki to beat Terraria is only a half truth. You need the wiki only if you want to learn about non obligatory stuff like specific class progression, how to spawn certain non mandatory bosses like Deerclops, Queen Slime, Duke Fishron, and The Empress Of Light, or niche items with low drop rates. You can actually play Terraria your first time without the wiki if you look at the next achievement the game wants you to get, specifically which bosses you have yet to fight, and constantly check with the Guide NPC to see what can be crafted. For example, I have been playing Terraria for several years now and have beaten the game on every mode including Legendary Mode, which is a secret mode unlocked by playing Master Mode on the getfixedboi seed, and I just recently discovered that the Dao Of Pow existed since I randomly got a world with both a corrupted desert and hallowed desert present.

[@chrissquid]

I definitely agree that the two games have way less in common than some people make it seem, and for me if I have the craving to play one of them, then the other would never satisfy it. In addition to that, I definitely think Terraria is a strong contender for having the best game design of all time, while what makes Minecraft so special isn't the game design specifically, but instead what it allows the players and the community to do with it.

[@SenzuMike]

100% agree.

[@UchindamiKayira]

@@chrissquid I just mean the blocky design gets kinda annoying cause you would have to go a certain distance away to see the build the way you want it to look.

[@DevlVergil]

Terraria also added the Journey mode for the super casuals in the last big update. It's true that fundamentally those two games have very different genres and goals, though I'd argue that if Terraria was made in 3D it would wipe the floor with Minecraft even at the aspects Minecraft is supposed to excel at. Creativity in building due to being 3D is really the only thing Minecraft can outshine Terraria, and a 3D version of Terraria would account for that easily. You're not forced to do boss fights and can easily get the proper building materials without serious fights. Terraria also has tons of decoration items ranging from chairs to bathtubs, which Minecraft is mostly missing for some reason. Only 2D is holding it back in this department. Other than that Terraria is vastly superior.

[@SenzuMike]

I think a 3D version of Terraria would actually ruin the game imo. The only reason why the combat can be the way it is, and the only reason it can be so content packed is because of the leverages 2D provides (i.e. faster dev time, 2D spaces being less complicated than 3D spaces, etc). There are also many other ways that Minecraft outshines Terraria than what you just mentioned; the catalogue of past videos on my channel is proof of that. Take how someone coded FNAF into vanilla Minecraft, or the PvP and Parkour scene which would be impossible to replicate in Terraria. As the pinned comment illustrated, I believe that Terraria has a vastly superior core gameplay loop to Minecraft. Minecraft's survival stands ZERO chance against Terraria's progression system. It's Minecraft's other aspects that elevate it to a level matching Terraria in quality.

I'm gonna be honest I have a reason for think that terraria is better 1.3 literally added over 800 new sprites while in Minecraft they expect me to be hyped over a new stair case and many people say thing about hoe Minecraft is better because of building with more options that's completely wrong Minecraft doesn't even have chairs terraria has end game toilets. Terraria actually interact with the community and even adds in suggestions for Minecraft on the other hand it feels like they're trying to do what they fanbase doesn't want "Yay one new mob this year with a singular purpose" I'd argue that some terraria updates have more content then so of Minecraft itself. As well asxthere being no insentive to fight bosses besides beacon upgrades terraria is much better at rewarding the player and having a clear progression the only time they've ever lied to the community was when they said they were going to stop updating the game Minecraft even has a bigger studio then terraria even of you say its 3d so it's harder to do the sheer amount of content they add makes Minecraft "oh it's 3d" seem effortless

Would you mind if you elaborated on your answer, as I understand your complaint about the resolution on the Terraria section, since I had to zoom in so much, but I am unsure of what you mean by 'Better FPS' when I have a consistent >60, the maximum FPS on KZbin. Do you have a lower resolution on perhaps? I also do not know what you mean by 'edited cleaner' and 'had better thumbnails', as for the former, I understand somewhat, yet it's too simple of a word to state your point well enough. Would you mind pointing out certain instances of what you mean? As for the latter, I think my thumbnail on this video is actually really good, so I'll leave this one as an 'agree to disagree', unless you saw my past thumbnails on this channel, then I'd just agree.

[@miserryyterraria]

@@SenzuMike You'd have to render the video in 60 fps, you can see at 6:25 that there's a large frame drop which I'm assuming is from your side, since the dungeon guardian causes large frame drops. If it were 60 fps like you said you would see it in the settings for your video. It also looks like you were recording from your monitor instead of the application, which can reduce frames as well. As I was saying earlier, the 6:20 mark isn't zoomed in but still looks 720p, which is definitely a recording issue since the KZbin video is 1080p. And for thumbnails, for this one specifically you should have put a drop shadow or glow outline on the pngs you added, the Minecraft logo terraria logo, and VS image. And the other thumbnails you have are too dark, you need to add another layer and just brighten the image as a whole by color-picking a certain color, then making a brighter version of that color and drawing on the old color to brighten it up. For example your "So, Tubnet Finally Shut Down..." would be a fine thumbnail but it was clearly rendered in Minecraft, causing a dark shader on the players. You'd have to brighten this up by either rendering it in blender instead or just changing the brightness/contrast of the image.
