That’s one game that I never got into the hype train with and still haven’t got around to trying, even though it looks like it’s right up my alley. So I might be mistaken but wasn’t Minecraft originally an indie effort? I don’t like it but I can understand and appreciate giving indie devs support while they’re still working on things a lot more than paying the mega corporation for the privilege of being a beta tester.
Yeah, it was an indie thing, but it was also one of the first huge success stories from crowdfunding/early access, too. So in typical game’s industry fashion, they copied it; but only the parts that make them more money for less effort.
