Terraria never struck me as intuitive or interesting in the first place. Combat mechanics are poor, and compared to Minecraft (which it is often put up against), it really can't compete. I feel that if you want to create a game based on building, you need to give the player more than just two dimensions. 2D can only be interesting for so long, especially when compared to 3D games.
