User blog comment:Kristoff98/Minecraft vs Terraria/@comment-4038658-20110717144742

Conclusive overview: Minecraft is for building and Terraria is for adventuring. They both have that survival feel and large world appeal. Every time you start a new world, that's exactly what it is: A new, fresh experience for a world you have yet to set foot on. Over playing the games makes them boring, but that's a problem with every game. Our generation is so ADD that if we can't find something new then we move on or try to distract ourselves for a bit. Both games are still under development and I look forward to each of the full releases. Yet, perhaps due to mods, they will simply never be done. New features added every day by groups or even individuals will keep either game interesting till they drop off the interwebs.

Anyway, that's my 2 cents on the subject, I've gone on quite enough. Farewell and game on!
