Because sometimes the simple things can be fun, when you just have an hour or two and wanna relax for a little? And it looks like the combat could well get complicated later in the game. I think this is a game you can't really judge from the first few hours.
Sure, I'm only 2h into the game and it's all "Right click until everything is dead", but as characters learn more abilities, I would not be surprised if I were to need to pause the game and micromanage more at later levels. And, you know, loot games. People love loot.
Yes, there are times I've almost fallen asleep waiting for Starbound to load up. Of course me using FU doesn't help any, lol. But seriously, no game should take ~5 minutes to load to the title screen. Ah well, good things are worth the wait.
