> randomly generated threats (Minecraft, Terraria)

Maybe that's just me, but Minecraft is totally not about randomly generated threats. Sure, you have a certain set of milestones related to combat (e.g. loot a nether fortress, defeat the Ender dragon), but 99% of what motivates me about Minecraft is building stuff.

Yeah, that's fair, I left that out and only noticed it later.

Of course, AFAIK, NMS only added "building stuff" (e.g. bases) to the list of things you could do after the initial release.
