both are good. Terraria would be a copy of minecraft, but the two have made a special-sort of bond together.

Terraria is more balanced than Minecraft because you go up different tiers, unlike Minecraft you go from early game to mid game to late game with nothing in between.

They're both good for their own reasons, they have different approaches to your main goal.
Minecraft is about building and exploring.
Terraria is about building too, but your goal is to fight bosses and get good loot of them.

I wouldn't say one is better than the other, just enjoy whichever is closest to your tastes.

Despite sharing some core concepts (Like mining, building, and crafting) I would say that they are very different games. Coming from someone who has a couple hundred hours at least in both games, Neither one is better than they other. They are both good at what they do. Minecraft is a better sandbox, and Terraria has better progression. I could keep going, but we'll be here all day.

Minecraft is the game that I have played growing up. I had installed terraria before Minecraft, it is not that good (but still, its nice).
Minecraft is more fun as there are many "Minecraft But.." challenges being created.
Minecraft is also going to get more adventurous when they release the Caves and Cliffs update.

minecraft is more customizable than terraria. Yes, terraria has mods, texture packs, ect, but they don't give out the game code like minecraft does. They don't have that much things you can customize. Say minecraft texture packs. There are pvp packs, cit packs, detailed packs ect. Minecraft also has optifine, forge, server plugins, and customizable plugins. Everything in minecraft is customizable, terraira, you can't customize everything. Minecraft also has custom clients, like badlion client, ect

Technically, Minecraft doesn't give out its code either (at least not in a way that can easily and legally be used). Both require mod developers to de-compile it, deobfuscate it and make the necessary changes. Tools like Forge and TModLoader make it a little easier for developers, but the steps are still done by the loaders.
With that said, Minecraft Java Edition has gone a long way to being a highly customizable, data-driven game since 1.8 and 1.9, even without mods.

So, you ask people what they think, but then you spam the same answer to your own question over and over again?

That said, more content isn't always better. Halo 4 had far more weapons than Halo 1. However, 1 did a far better job at balancing the weapons it had,
and none of them felt either redundant or useless (something I can't say about 4). More weapons and more enemies doesn't automatically improve the game. It all depends on how everything fits together.

That said, although I do sometimes find the item counts of Terraria to be a bit overwhelming, I do feel like it has done a fairly decent job of giving every item its purpose, especially when you consider that some items are geared for different playstyles. Granted, some of them do seem pretty gimmicky (especially the mounts), but it does a good job overall.

They are both games that revolve around procedural-generated voxel worlds that require you to gather resources by dismantling the world and constructing bases for survival in a hostile world. They both have a heavy emphasis on combat, exploration, mining, and resource management. They are very comparable.

This is going to get a bit lengthy, although you're in luck since I actually did write something about this.

Wall of Text has awoken!
Personally I prefer Terraria for its general gameplay, progression and bosses (even if the game, and expert/master mode, can be brutal as hell, which incidentally is also featured in the game in the form of the underworld, and it's not even the toughest part of the game in general) as well as its unique take on creative mode in the form of Journey mode (for example, its item duplication system requires you to "consume" a certain quantity of each stackable item in order to be able to freely duplicate them). Personally I'm waiting for tModLoader, the (technically unofficial, since while it is official in that Re-Logic, the developers themselves, promoted it and even made a separate "game" or DLC for it on Steam when 1.4 was released, it's still developed by a different team) modded client for Terraria, to update to 1.4.1 but I'm not looking forward to when that date will be, since none of us know when it'll be. I'm betting in a year or so but that's probably just me being pessimistic and thinking about how long it took for 1.4 to release.

However, that doesn't mean that Minecraft is also very good in its own ways; I myself prefer it for it building aspect, meaning one could make extravagantly detailed builds if they have enough skill and patience (one user is making the Last Resort from Luigi's Mansion 3, the main setting of the game, for example) and its general selection of mods... which, while still technically impressive (someone made a mod that lets you run a virtual machine inside the game), with the whole modding platform thing of Forge vs. Fabric, the latter being newer and generally having a greater selection of mods for more current versions over Forge, has been a bit problematic for a lot of players, including myself. Both clients are largely, if not completely, incompatible with each other without an extensive rewrite of their coding, which is where this problem stems at.

There is more to it, but it just goes on to talk more about mods for Minecraft.
