Minecraft vs Terraria

Minecraft and Terraria are both sandbox games where you gather resources, survive hostile mobs, and rebuild the world as you see fit. Both went into development at about the same time. You start off with little to no tools and have to obtain the materials to build new and better tools and equipment. You must also explore the worlds to find the resources as well as other items you can't craft. My question is, which is better? There are different aspects to the games to consider. Please note that I am talking about the vanilla versions. That is to say no mods installed as there are to many to count and you likely don't know what all of them do. Also I am not just talking about the quantity of the content but the quality as well.
