Mine's Ark, but I enjoy some vanilla minecraft now and again as well.
Need to figure out a controller mod one of these days, though...I can't do the keyboard and mouse thing...

Have you tried Valheim? Viking fantasy setting with a lot of exploration. I have not played seriously since before the Mistlands update, but it is alright single player though more fun with friends.
I had a good time with Valheim, except that it got to be extremely grindy at the current endgame (the Mistlands). Plus not being able to teleport around with metal, instead having to walk or sail it back, gets to be a pain. Thankfully there are mods to change that if you wish.
Great game for building, especially with friends. Can create some very atmospheric viking-styled buildings.
I just make a second world with chests, quit out of the main one, go to chest world, dump metal, load back into main one, tp where I need, go back to chest world to collect metal, profit :P
Ive spent most of the time in the game playing on a friend's MP server so this is exactly what I do. Meanwhile he has to take the slow boat back and get wrecked by the sea serpents.
I get why the devs don't want you to be able to go through portals with metal and whatnot. Exploration is fun! ...the first time. Anything after that is a bit of a grind.
And, as you say, there are mods for that.
Not gonna lie, sailing around in a wide, vast ocean on a viking longship, discovering new lands and fending off sea serpent attacks is pretty fucking cool. Just... not all the time.
