yeah, tried a few times, and never could get into Minecraft. Much prefer terraria's far more structured bosses/adventure. or, exploration/survival of Conan exiles/enshrouded/etc.
this, troubled dev, and push to EA would make me expect this to be WILDY unfinished or broken.
But, checking some streamers, etc. they all seem quite positive on it. Perhaps its all frontloaded, and the love will fade quick. Palworld for example. (anyone check back on that recently? any good progress?)
$20 buy in, is pretty cheap as well. pretty easy to justify giving it a shot.
