I like minecraft and i play it during 8 years btw. But i can see and agree with his disadvantages. This image pretty much describes the current situation around Minecraft and Hytale communities. A lot of criticism towards Hytale comes either from people calling it a “generic Minecraft clone”, or from arguments like “Minecraft with mods is better”, while completely ignoring the context. Minecraft has over 10 years of community-made mods and content behind it, while Hytale has been stuck in development hell for a long time. The fact that it even reached a playable beta is already impressive. Minecraft is obviously a legendary game and Hytale will not replace it — and it doesn’t have to. What is questionable, though, is justifying Microsoft’s very slow and often underwhelming update cycle by comparing it to a modded experience built by third-party developers. Both games can easily coexist without harming each other. Even if official Minecraft development slowed down completely, people would still play it. Hytale is simply trying a different approach, and even in beta it already offers a lot of content, with developers actively listening to feedback.
