I am not an expert on SDV, but my wife plays basically every HM-like out there, and her take is that Barone focused so heavily on the 'economy' balance in SDV that all of the activities feel like they're worth doing, so it doesn't become "only farming", or "only adventuring", etc, like many others do. Even just picking up wild plants feels worth it when you drop them in the sale bin in the evening.
I think MTaP and to a lesser extent MTaS both really carried over a lot of the complexity from Planet Explorers, Pathea's first game they released internationally. It's a survival crafting game, with a LOT of complexity (e.g. manual, voxel-based weapon and vehicle designs). I don't think it worked well in combination with other systems like farming being very underdeveloped (in MTaP especially).
My Time at Portia and My Time at Sandrock (sequel). They're both on Switch.
Yeah, if you didn't enjoy MTaP I wouldn't recommend it. :)
