minus-squareHeartyOfGlass@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up33·3 months agoNotes while I’m watching: The “vibe” is different - in my head I translated this to “he likes the GUI more” Minetest has zero “story” / progression (so no Ender Dragon to gear up for & fight) - it’s purely a sandbox experience. better performance, apparently runs on potato laptops pretty well Mods are built-in, and don’t require tools like Forge or whatever to tweak a jar file ⬅️ THIS is cool! Customization via the Settings menu The “built-in support for mods” caught my eye. That’s pretty slick, and a headache with MC. tl;dr - it runs on just about everything, and focuses on giving the player an easy-to-mod “sandbox” to play in.
