/tg/ mining has bosses, a lot of which are some of the most fun stuff I've done in ss13, the tile based system works very well for dodging and weaving in and out of attacks, in comparison I've only found a few bosses in goon and the VR Drone Colosseum is broken, the syndicate fleet can only be found at certain times, and the other bosses you can find are pretty underwhelming either being dodging one attack every few seconds or just enemy spam.
/tg/ also has mining dead roles which i thought was a pretty clever way to put you back into the round without you being anyway near the station and having to build from the ground up. I wouldn't mind VR being our way to get back into the round but not much to do there and the only thing I think would interest me is broken (Colosseum), as of now I'd rather just hop onto another server.
I also felt like /tg/ mining nicely brought together a lot of jobs on the station, I got to talk to science and upgrade all my stuff, I could make mechs and talk to all the people on lavaland if I could find their set pieces. Science could upgrade a lot of stuff but not easily without lavaland ores. Lavaland was deadly as hell so it never felt like a cakewalk, it always feels like you can fall in a pit and instantly die or get murdered by a two ton beast if you aren't careful enough.
Most of the merit from it was how they handled dead roles, you never want to leave the server if you can continue playing and it's obvious where you can go to continue playing. It'd probably help new players stay on longer to learn rather than die like an idiot in the first few seconds and then just leave. They are a little out of the way but I think being able to respawn was one of the things that made my friends want to keep playing ss13 rather than get bored. It's basically just an easier way to learn mechanics for new players and also help old players not get bored while waiting for the round to end.
Also /tg/ just has way more weapons and items I felt like, while goon has more mechanics and actions.
