We had a vanilla server two years ago.
I ran a starbound server for like 2 months on here a few months ago. It got to ten player peaks but there are just so many issues with modded servers that I would have to do maintenance almost daily. It was fun for larp. The game is really easy to grief or cheat in and almost impossible to prevent other than groups making their own little larp clans.
I would host again, starbound is my favorite game. I would also play on one if someone else hosted. A lot of people will only play if you have their hyper niche race mod.';

No because who the fuck is playing Starbound in 2024? It's too old and not good enough to have that kind of modern appeal. Now take the current player base of Starbound, find the players who actively play multiplayer, and among those players find those who use 4chan and also want to play multiplayer with other 4channers.

People who compare starbound to terreria are retards who only played the beta. The game came into its own as a survival, build, craft, adventure.

'>>1284140
How is that bait. Terreria is a boss fighting game. Starbound is a build/explore game. Sb was similar at the start with the boss crafting mechanic but took a whole new approach, focusing on exploration and dungeons/story.
Terreria for combat, starbound for building and exploring. Outside of combat/the boss loop, terreria had little going for it.';

'>>1284550
Then I'm sorry that you're a massive retard, lad. What a dreadful thing to be.
>Exploration
Nothing to find in Statbound. When you find a new biome or even a stupid log cabin in Terraria - you find new things and items and creatures and sights. In Starbound it's just shitty random out of place dungeons just plopped like a turd into random places on the planet, with nothing in them other than the empty and meaningless location and maybe a stupid hat.
>building
It took Starbound until 1.4 to even have sloped blocks. Terraria has half blocks, sloped blocks, stairs, more paints, actuators, invisible blocks, etc. Starbound only has slightly less janky wiring and pretty sprites going for it. Anyone who says building in Starbound is better as a feature is a mongoloid.
>crafting
Starbound is just blatantly less convenient to craft it. Can't browse recipes for multiple crafting tables, can't craft out of chests, and the crafts also aren't instant. It doesn't even help immersion, it's just more busywork.
>Story
Not even gonna grace your nigger ass with a thorough ass-tearing of Starbound's godawful story. Better none than what we got.';

'>>1285165
>Exploration
More biomes, more mobs, random costumes, music, fish, bugs, fossils, furniture, different races with their own unique architecture and culture, lore.
In terreria you have one actual dungeon and a few shitty randomly generated things underground. All you find are weapons, armor, potions, and accessories that all tie into just combat. They have no culture, lore, or soul.
>Building
Matter manipulator go brrr. Easy to get materials, more blocks to craft, better looking blocks, easier, smoother building with a highlight of blocks before they are placed, the shift function for single block and right click for backgrounds makes for a more smooth building experience unlike the hammer jank. The search function makes it easier to find shit as well. Different cultures, zoom levels, furniture, and biomes plus more unique colonies you can build (not the same retarded buyers) makes for much more inspired builds. People in almost every terreria play will make a wood cube or stone castle. You see way cooler builds for starbound with inspiration from the game. Endless worlds means endless resources. You do not have to fuck up the landscape of a planet to make giant and beautiful worlds and you do not have to annoyingly load a new fucking game.
>Crafting
A few different benches with a search feature. Way easier than scrolling for years.
>lore
Starbound has a shit story but good races that as I said, add a lot to the exploration and building. Terreria has no lore besides a fan fic made halfway into development.';

'>>1285327
>More biomes
All look the same and have almost nothing interesting in them, aside from a very few exceptions like regrowable kelp in toxic oceans or special floating buff fruits on alien trees. This is exceedingly rare and even then doesn't matter much.
>more mobs
No unless you count the procedurals, in which case hang yourself, NPC.
>random costumes
4 slots and like 7 dyes, compared to being able to put on different hats, chests, legs and up to 7 slots dedicated to hair ornaments, boots, gloves, cloaks, back accessories, belts, glowing eyes, and more. I'm not even certain if there are actually more outfits in Starbound, and even if there is it's still not an argument.
>different races with their own unique architecture and culture, lore
Shallow and irrelevant. Lore anf culture got butchered, and architecture amounts to tiny shitty villages uncomonly occuring on predefined biomes. Garbage.
>In terreria you have one actual dungeon
Two.
>and a few shitty randomly generated things underground.
Which have infinitely more exploratory value than slightly more intricately drawn shitty randomly generated things underground that you have in Starbound.
>All you find are weapons, armor, potions, and accessories that all tie into just combat.
They also tie into mobility, building, utility, and even aesthetics, be it cosmetics or exploration. All you find in Statbound is hats and ugly usually useless procedural weapons.
>They have no soul.
Faggot. Starbound is peak soulless shit done halfheartedly by people who didn't wanna be there.
>Matter manipulator go brrr.
Look, I have a Hamdrax! Revolutionary!
Terraria had that shit all the way back in 1.1.
>Easy to get materials
It's actually harder because you have to get 4 times as many walls as you would have had in Terraria.
>more blocks to craft
Arbitrary measurement.
>better looking blocks
Starbound does look more detailed, admittedly. But that's an artstyle feature, not a building feature.

What hammer jank, faggot? Just use smart cursor, it's even better than SB's wall filling.
>The search function makes it easier to find shit as well.
Grasping at straws, but I'll give you that one.
>Different cultures
Already deboonked. You can simulate more cultures in Terraria.
>zoom levels
2 shitty way too close for comfort ones and the farthest one is basically the same as Terraria's default.
>furniture
Present in terraria.
>biomes
Present in Terraria.
>plus more unique colonies you can build
And your colonists have as much value and personality as the furniture you placed in their homes. Bonus points for ugly disgusting tennant screens forced into every room and not even printed in different themes.
>People in almost every terreria play will make a wood cube or stone castle.
And people in almost every Starbound play will just shove a ton of random junk and containers into their ship.
>You see way cooler builds for starbound with inspiration from the game.
No. You just never actually paid attention to Terraria builders and how autistic they are and how much detail they put into their shit. There's a whole youtube gathering of them.
>Endless worlds means endless resources.
Since when do you have limited world slots in Terraria?
>You do not have to fuck up the landscape of a planet to make giant and beautiful worlds

>you do not have to annoyingly load a new fucking game.
Admittedly it's nice that you can jumo around your ship during the ONE of the THREE loading screens you need to go thrpugh to change your planet (beam up, travel, beam down), and you do kinda press fewer buttons in exchange for usually waiting more on the loading screen when you set up teleporters, but that's general Quality of Life, not even building.

>Starbound has a shit story but good races that as I said, add a lot to the exploration and building.
The races are only as good as the artstyle is. Their lore is shit. Just because you want to fuck the vegetable people doesn't mean there is any value to their role in the worldbuilding.

'>>1285349
It has more biomes.
Randomly generated combos of attacks and dungeon bosses constitute more mobs
SB outfits change looks more than the accessories which, 90% you never see
There are some cool cultural builds even old ones underground and a lot of dungeons. Way more than the two in terreria.
The underground of terreria is swing sword and break pots. The lowest level of looting in starbound.
More blocks mean more builds. Cope more.
Starbound has more mods.
Hammer drill axe is still worse than a matter manipulator
Better artstyle means better building
Gunna add, better backgrounds add to builds as well.
>>1285360
I have built in both, terreria with one at a time and slower building feels clunky. Switching to a hammer feels clunky. Having a block that can obstruct father building feels clunky. Having to craft new blocks for the background feels clunky.
I like smart cursor but I prefer breaking through blocks with mm.
How debunked? More blocks, more races, more styles, and more biomes/looks means more cultures and cool shit to build.
Zoom lets you appreciate builds more
More and better looking furniture with more functions in starbound
More biomes in starbound

it's graphically improved, locations are more unique, there's lore and something resembling an overarching story... but none of that shit matters because it just isn't interesting or even good for that matter

Terraria is great because you can jump in, build some shit, kill some bosses, and fuck off to do your own thing
Starbound suffers from No Man's Sky syndrome where it shackles your nuts to the floor and says
