As Rudi so well put it: a little faith and trust that we are not so shortsighted as to release "the same game with better graphics". It would be safe to assume that we would realize the need to make this "differentiated enough" from Terraria to be worth it and make people happy.
Of course it will have some common elements - it IS a Terraria game, after all - but we are confident that the end result will feel substantially different enough to provide a new and different gameplay experience. As others stated, that may be more pleasing to some, same to some, less to others. That's fine - we each have our gaming preferences and we are all cool with that.
The comparison to SB is a bit silly. No outer space, nothing really in common at all. The "style" may be similar inasmuch as one may view 8 bit vs 16 bit graphics...as an analogy...but the "similarities" end there.
Hey, in the end, either we will deliver on a differentiated, fun, and fresh Terraria experience - or we will have missed the mark we have set for ourselves. We do not intend to miss that mark. Until we can share more and/or you have that in your hands, would ask for a bit of faith.
Not trying to dampen any speculation (love reading it!), just giving some perspective from our end.
Of course, there is now a dedicated section on TCF where you can give your thoughts and ideas to help make sure this delivers!
Terraria continues along it's planned route, for those in doubt there....
