Terraria: Thriving in 2024.

Starbound: Dead, with its bones eroded to dust.

Honestly had high hopes for Starbound. "It's like Terraria, but more!" And then Terraria kept gaining content while Starbound basically never got beyond what it had when it launched.

At this point, I want to just mod the sci-fi stuff and world hopping into Terraria.

The modding community for starbound is super healthy though. It's basically the perfect environment for it: no more updates, a lot of established groundwork, conveniently separated game files. Heck, you can completely change the world generation halfway through a playthrough as long as you move to a part of the universe that hadn't been generated yet
