Alright, I know I'm VERY late to the party. I always liked indie games, but somehow I never sat down to play either of these 2 games.
I assume both are more than worth the time. My question is: should I install any mods, or should I try them vanilla first ? I haven’t looked into either game beyond the surface level, but I’m open to trying them vanilla if the base game is already great without mods.
Im leaning towards Stardew Valley (Harvest Moon but much better ?) first
but I have no idea what Terrarria actually plays like so Im curious about it as well.
Any input, tips, etc. are welcome. Thank you for your tiem
Stardew Valley does have mods, and many of them are good, but play it vanilla first, it's great by itself.
Terraria is secretly mostly about bossfights.
If I were playing Stardew again for the first time I'd still play with UI info suite. All of the things it adds are QoL features that should be in the game any way and that a lot of newer farming games have.
I don't think I've used that one, the one I was mainly thinking of is Stardew Valley Expanded, which I think is very good and fits very well in, but I don't think is necessary for a first playthrough.
