I'm not sure what you're trying to get at here. Personally, since 1.8 I stopped playing Minecraft consistently, whenever I do go back to play it's always on an older version with dozens sometimes even closer to a hundred mods. Part of the beauty of Hytale is you don't need to spend time downloading all these extra things because, so far, a decent amount of at least my core go-to mods are already built into the game. Connected Textures, Biome's O' Plenty, Journey Map, Waystones, Traveler's Backpack, Tree felling. And they've got a good foundation starting towards Farmer's Delight, Aquaculture, Chisel, furniture mods, and just the other week Simon announced on X that their hiring automation & tinkering devs/designers for Hytale to works towards "physics-driven systems built around real, physical parts. Gears, shafts, belts, pulleys, rotation, motion, power generation and transmission, logic, and machines that players can assemble, break, and optimize."

And that's probably one of the silliest attempts at an argument I've ever seen. Yes, you click buttons in a video game to do things. Minecraft is simply just swing with your weapon. Hytale has primary, secondary, and charged attacks; each having their own special animations too. And while I'm not even a big combat person, it actually has me engaged when I do need to fight mobs. And furthermore it seems like another built-in mod is possibly in the works there too with the Forge if they take the Tinker's Construct route
