Minetest, a voxel game engine created to be something like a Minecraft clone, is finally smashing apart the chains to become more its own unique thing.

    The main thing holding it back as far as I can tell is the dead modding scene. Minecraft has the best modding scene of any game ever, hands down. You don’t even need to compete with that, just have a small modding scene and the game gets way better.

      The minecraft modding scene is also a serious longterm threat to microsoft making money off minecraft, so I hope the Luanti modding scene continues to grow!

      (I don’t think microsoft will necessarily kill java minecraft but microsoft clearly sees minecraft java as a dead end, you are fooling yourself if you think otherwise)

      @Alk @ZippyBot Yeah right, sure. A modding community that has produced over 2200 mods (and the latest one was posted on ContentDB yesterday) and over 120 games is definitely dead. 🤦
