Terraria is better than Minecraft

These 2 games, in my honest opinion, have been competing in the gaming industry for the position of top mining game of all. There were, and still are, spin-offs that mimic these 2 games in many ways. Yet, nothing beats the originals. Although, the question is: which one is better than the other? I'd have to say Terraria. The graphics aren't as good as Minecraft when putting it up to comparison, but the gameplay is superb! The retro action-style experience adds to the stroke of perfection. The vast variety of weapons, enemies, and activities to do enrich the overall experience. Not only this, but there are also a whopping TWENTY-ONE bosses that you can fight to make the game more challenging. Yes, one might say, "But Minecraft has a bigger fan base!" True gamers don't count the fan base as a means of making a game bigger than it is. There could be a game that has terrible everything and a huge fan base, and an incredible game that has a small fan base. Which one is better? Option 2, right? I rest my case. Feel free to debate.
Terraria is better than Minecraft

Touche my friend, touche. But on the contrary, Terraria also has modding capabilities as well. Of course, Terraria's modding system isn't as genuine and well-known as Minecraft's but hey; it still exists. Modding in Terraria also uses .exe programs in order to create an enhanced experience. You can change the layouts and dynamics of a game, the actual formation of the terrain itself, etc. Terraria's mod system isn't as foolproof as Minecraft's though, which is one disadvantage. As stated before, the modding system isn't as genuine which in turn makes it somewhat unreliable. One click of a button and all your saved gameplay/character data can be wiped, so be weary of what you download. There are ways to backup your data so that nothing happens, but I'll probably cover that some other day. There are still many user-created applications with a lot of reliability. Once again, the Terraria Forum doesn't fail to deliver. A couple of mod names include: [1] 1) ScooterBoot9697's Metroid Mod 2) TerraMod 3) Omnir's Modpacks 4) .2 Ingame Cheat Menu [1] http://www.terrariaonline.com... Enjoy your lunch.
Terraria is better than Minecraft

my post may be a little shorter than my previous one due to the fact I am currently at my educational facility and lunch time is 30+ minutes. Let us continue from where I left off,Contention 2) Moddabilitya. ) ModdabilityMojang waanted Minecraft to be a game that was easily coded, retroesque, and had unique features unlike anything else from its time. Notch had added so much to what was once his little world, however the astonishing thing was not only the retroesque sandbox but also the infinitely expanding and ever loyal community he created. As Notch was wrapping up his work and putting the finishing touches on the game, modders came into play. Minecraft runs off of a widely known coding language known as JAVA[1] Coders use this same language along with ChickenBones'Minecraft Forge and many other external . exes to completely modify or change the base gameModification: : the act or process of changing parts of something : the act or process of modifying something : a change in something (such as a system or style)[3]A Modification or mod in Minecraft may be from as simple as modifying and editing errors and glitches to creating and expanding on the world of Minecraft adding hundreds if not thousands of more hours to the game itself. From the simple texture patcher of OptiFine to the insane and totally absurd world of Orespawn. Some of these modifications are combined with a multitude of others to create what is known as an overhaul modification, these modifications are put into what is called a "Mod Pack" and there are a varierty of launchers that will launch these so called Mod Packs here are a few known to most people who play minecraft:Technic Launcher: Personal FavoriteFTB LauncherMagic Launcher(Previously)SkyrimCraft LauncherWhatever the case it is surprising to see the tremendous growth of Minecraft in just a few short years and even more insane to know that Minecraft will continue to expand further then we can possibly imagine with the creation of new and more exciting, enticing, and generally enteresing ideas. Minecraft will easily live a decade and overtake its foes.

Abortion is wrong after 6 weeks

Hello! Let me just start off by saying I hope we can both get some clean points off. 1. I am a republican 2. I am going to be blunt, you are wrong. First off, the majority of women only find out they are pregnant about 4 and a half to 5 weeks in the pregnancy. If what you propose would become law, that gives women either, A. No choice but to carry the child. Or B. decide within 3 DAYS whether or not you want to abort the child or not. Also, only at around 20 weeks into the pregnancy can a fetus feel pain. The deadline I feel for abortion should be around 10 weeks, as this is where the real critical development ends.
Abortion is wrong after 6 weeks

Ah........the decades old argument of abortion...... Abortion is wrong after six weeks. At 5 weeks or a little bit earlier, the fetus has started developing a brain,heart, and spine. These organs takes about 1-3 weeks to fully form (as much as a fetus's brain would form). and soon after has brain activity and heartbeat. It is therefore a living organism and it is obviously a human. Killing other humans is wrong and therefore, abortion at this time is wrong. (Lets please try to keep this argument in one day)
Abortion is wrong after 6 weeks

In all technicality, the child is alive at conception as it is a living cell for the first half hour of it's life. So with your argument and logic, abortions should be completely illegal. Should it not? Even with birth control, there is a chance that the woman will become pregnant anyways. So even with responsible people, it could happen. As I said, most people find out they're pregnant during that timeframe. For most people taking the precautions, they would not feel they need to check because of protection. I feel your whole argument is based on a moral argument and is totally subjective. If you are in extreme poverty and you find out you are pregnant, would you want to carry on with the pregnancy? If carrying the child threatens your life, would you do it? If the child would have some abnormality and would have a bad chance of living a happy life, would you do it? With the timeframe that you have proposed,(and unfortunately, heard in Ohio,) People would have to make one of the biggest choices in their entire lives, in just a few short days. Back to your,"alive and human," point. Let me ask you, do you believe in the death penalty? Do you think that is wrong? Your whole argument is subjective. But you have to think of the circumstances or the reasons why people seek abortion.
Abortion is wrong after 6 weeks

Heartbeat develops at 6 weeks. It is alive and human. Women can find out if they are pregnant sooner than the period you stated. If you are even the slightest bit responsible you would know if its a possibility that you are pregnant and they could check. Even if it has ended critical development, it is alive beforehand. There are people in this world that cannot feel or express pain. We do not just kill them because they cant feel pain. We keep them around because we would feel bad because they are human also. Wouldn't that be considered wrong? Vegetables (people paralyzed from birth) especially the ones that cant even communicate cant do anything just like the non fully formed baby. Do we kill them just because we do not want them? No. ( not in this society or this time period). As long as it is alive and human, it is wrong. That is something that is believed commonly among society but they do not think of this circumstance.
Keep Creationism Out of Public Schools

Creationism and Evolution had being in a dispute for a long time, since Charles Darwin published the Theory of Evolution back in 1859. Church and Science had been in a disagreement on our origin. The separation of state and law prohibited any religious teaching in public school. Religious leaders argue that school should teach Creationism because we can't prove is wrong; however, Creationism should not be teach because makes many science branches invalid, we need to improve our education levels, and simply because is wrong. Admittedly, religion is an important part of many people, a vital part that should not be taken away. Creationism can not be disprove nor prove, so it should be teach as one possible explanation of our origins. However, Creationism is against many confirmed branches of science such as astronomy, biology, paleontology just to name few; making the education unhealthy for our kids. Not teaching Evolution is lying about our history, our origins; also closing the minds of our kids, making them not interested in science the most important subject. In addition, our education system needs to improve if we want to keep competing with the rising economies in the world. The United States is in the 17th place in education levels, at this rate the U.S. will not be able to maintain a superpower rank in the future. Developing nations such as China, Russia and India will take our place in economy and sciences in the upcoming years. If we don't do nothing today, expect to see our nation, the nation we're so proud to be part of, degraded from a world power to become irrelevant on international affairs. Finally, There's not enough evidence to prove anything about Creationism. Creationism has zero evidence besides the Bible, a book written thousands of years ago and translated from many different languages. Evolution has a lot more evidence ranging from fossils to the slow change of species, including us. Using Evolution as an explanation is a better explanation overall, because there is plenty of evidence to support it and is a better idea to be teach than Creationism. In conclusion, Creationism needs to stay away from our schools. Creationism does not belong to the education system anywhere on this planet. Science is based on observation and experiments not about what we think might be true. Science had come a long way; it explains every mystery in a reasonable way. Creationism is simply wrong and not okay to be teach in school.

There should not be a Death Penalty.

Wow, so I guess I have ten minutes to post an argument. This should happen fast. Well, anyway, all I really need to say is that in Leviticus, God actually created a mandate for a death penalty. It was run by humans. Also, my opponent hasn't provided statistics that a lot of innocents have been killed by it and hasn't even proven that God is the only one that can make these decisions. So really, my opponent hasn't upheld the BoP, and I'm winning by default.

"I'm sick and tired of the statistics that show how men get more pay than women." Man and women of the same age in the same occupations get paid the same. Statistics such as women earn 79 cents for every dollar a male earns is is true but your conclusion that gender inequality exists on such huge scale is false. Women CHOOSE to work fewer hours, tend to work in lower paid occupations, have to take time our for child rearing etc. So when you compare apples and apples and not apples and oranges the inequalities cease to appear. No economists take the gender pay gap seriously, otherwise firms would only hire women because their 21% cheaper than men. There are also biological differences that favor men in some areas and favor women in other areas. For example, my physics class has 3 girls and 20 boys and there are 3 boys in ext 2 maths. Boys tend to be better at maths, and the well paying occupations such as engineering, economics tend to be dominated by males. Furthermore, according to IQ studies the average female is smarter than the average male but the smartest people are males and the dumbest people are males. Hence, the male IQ bell curve is stretched to both ends more so than the female bell curve. This helps explain why super smart scientists, inventors and CEO's tend to be male dominated. But of course there some people who discriminate against women, but they are few and far between. But the free market will weed them out. Take for example the couple who would not bake a wedding cake for a gay couple. They got sued but this is profoundly wrong. ie I agree with the cake makers. Instead of getting sued the free market will tend to discourage customers going to their store in favor of other gay friendly stores. Thus over time they will lose business. Likewise, its costs firms money to discriminate. If a female is the best job candidate and the employer knocks her back because he/she is sexist, that costs the firm, and slowly resources will be allocated toward other non discriminatory firms. As far as homosexuality is concerned, i thinks its morally wrong but that is simply my opinion, and they are free as adults to do whatever they so desire. Gay marriage is a different debate (one which i am currently engaged in). Animals do not have rights but we have a responsibility to treat them humanely. I am against hunting for non food purposes, but i do not seek to impose my will on someone else. If someone wants to shoot elephants on private property that there business even through i think what their doing is dumb. As for global warming (climate change is a dumb word because climate is always changing der) carbon emissions have increased but the effects have been overstated (see Lord Monckton on youtube). It requires a doubling of CO2 emissions to raise global temperatures by one degree. The stated impacts of CO2 emissions have been overstated 7 fold to fit agendas. Environmentalism=Socialism. A way to get government control through back door.

For your question on what I mean about Equality; I am saying that everyone, despite any of the things mentioned (race, appearance, social rank, gender, sexuality/romanticality or lack thereof, etc.) we all should be treated of equal value. I'm sick and tired of the statistics that show how men get more pay than women, that show how stereotypes of races are constantly being put into play, and that openly lgbt/SAGA individuals may find it harder to get a job. None of these things say anything about your character. That is what is important; if you have good character and work ethic you are worthy of a job whether or not you are of the female gender, minority race, or any other group often treated as lesser. We believe that change happening also doesn't imply negativity. We are in constant need of improvement. There is nothing more evident than that. Just because something has "always been that way" doesn't mean that it can't be bettered or that it is right at all. For all of life's well being I meant not only humans. As on many issues such as global warming, rainforest habitats, animals rights, and so on I would take Earth's side. We humans are not the only living things! Culture, I agree, does play an important role. However, it does not always mean that the person that displays this culture is going to fit some of the harsh stereotypes labeled onto them. I did say that I did not particularly like capitalism, but I also stated that I, in part, agreed with free-market. For where our economy is at right now it is the only relevant option. However, it is the shark-like aggression that goes on within commercialization that brings in more questionable morality (overly provocative commercials for food items is a good example) is a very negative swing. I do agree that man is flawed. That is evident as well. However, you can achieve equality. You need not make everything start fresh, but rather get rid of things making it impossible to start from where we are. Such as for unequal wages for men and women, make it so that you may not differ between them due only to gender. It's as simple as that. First of all, Rap Music is not necessarily "hoodrat culture". In fact, there is a lot of christian rap with uplifting lyrics. The overly sweetened things displayed there do need to be fixed. However, it is true that racism exist and needs to be stamped out as well. As to bring a focus on ideology, the sorts of places in which you give your money matter. Also, overall vote of a state does not necessarily depict that liberals did not have input in these charity-givings. Some of the Obama-voting states were much poorer than Romney ones.

"We believe in equality, change, the Earth's as well as all life's well-being." These terms are vague. Equality of what? Opportunity, outcomes? What change do you believe. Change does not imply something beneficial. You believe in the "Earth's," what does that mean? We all believe in the well being of humans. "How you look, from where your come, your religion, your sexuality/romantically or lack thereof do not define your character." Not all cultures are equal, this is the flaw in multiculturalism. Australia, Britain, America, Canada are some of the best places to live in the world because of their Britannic heritage founded in the rule of law, freedom and liberty. These cultures are superior to those in the middle east, Africa, Eastern Europe etc. Why? Because we see objective measures such as life expectancy, GDP per capita etc. Thus religion plays a vital role in culture and the success of any given people. Note I am not talking about the color of ones skin in determining success but rather the culture they possess. Ethnicity is irrelevant. "I do dislike capitalism and industrialism." What is the alternative, Mao's China, The Soviet Union, North Korea other failed communist and socialist states? The free market benefits those with good ideas, those who are productive, those who contribute to humanity. Henry Ford revolutionized automobiles and made them affordable to millions of Americans. This system rewards those who contribute. Liberals believe the coercive powers of government should be used to deliver solutions to problems. There are only problems in so far as man himself is the problem; he is flawed. There are no solutions only trade-offs. For example, we can have more equality of income if the government increases the redistribution of income. But doing this negates the incentive for people to create wealth in the first leaving everybody worse off. Trying to achieve equality before freedom and liberty leaves you with neither. Perhaps the most scathing attack on liberals is there ability to produce victims in society. Look at the liberal figurehead Barack Obama. He sets blacks against whites in order to create victims. Victims vote for him because he promises a solution. He focuses upon white on black shootings ignoring that fact that African Americans are more likely to rape, murder etc. Instead of trying reduce these figures instead he blames such disparities on White America. Why? because its the easy, soft, sappy explanation that does not hurt anyone feelings. If he wanted to truly fix such problems he would criticize hood rat culture including rap music, tall poppy syndrome, anti intellectual culture, drug taking etc but he doesn't. "liberal values are far more humane and helpful" "Overall, the states in which people gave the highest percentage of their adjusted gross incomes were also states that voted for Romney, while states in which people gave the lowest percentage of their adjusted gross income went for Obama. "

Being liberal means a lot of things. We believe in equality, change, the Earth's as well as all life's well-being. We know that people are people no matter what. How you look, from where your come, your religion, your sexuality/romanticality or lack thereof do not define your character. Everyone could use a hand, and we all deserve it. Everyone has their problems whether we know of them/experience them ourselves or not. We should all do our best to create a world that is beautiful for us all, not just yourself. As on the debate over the death penalty, liberals will tell you that cruelty to any human at all is intolerable. Torture and/or death contributed to them by law is not in a positive mark, but rather a depressingly negative expression. Why would one take away from one what we hate them for taking away from others? By doing so you yourself become the monster. To be entirely honest, I do dislike capitalism and industrialism. I believe in a free market-to an extent. From where we are right now that is the only plausible solution to our economics, but the 'bigger is better' motto destroys us. I am not anti coal, gas, or oil, but I do understand the drawbacks of them. We need to find new, and preferably cleaner sources of energy. That is undeniable. Also, terrorism as in the conservative belief, is in fact a large problem that needs to be dealt with. However, discrimination labeled under being cautious should not be permissible behavior. I do agree with liberal views for the most part, with a few opinions varying and ending up on a more conservative end. In short I believe that liberal values are far more humane and helpful to everyone than conservative self-helping rich-centered core values.
Gay Marriage should be legal.

Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, an air conditioning. Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall. Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract. Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Brittany Spears’ 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed. Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn’t be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren’t full yet, and the world needs more children. Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children. Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That’s why we have only one religion in America. Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That’s why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children. Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven’t adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans. A common and simplistic meaning is that heterosexual relationships are “natural” because that is what we find in nature, whereas we don’t find homosexual relationships. The latter are therefore unnatural and should not be validated by society. A perfect example of this attitude towards the “unnaturalness” of homosexuality was expressed by Peter Akinola, Anglican Archbishop of Nigeria: I cannot think of how a man in his senses would be having a sexual relationship with another man. Even in the world of animals — dogs, cows, lions — we don’t hear of such things.
