That...actually doesn't look too horrible for a first screen.
I wonder what kinds of elements they're putting in; Minecraft got a ton of RPG-ish elements in the end, maybe the same will happen here?

Good Gosh, you are really craving an RPG. :D

wonderfulmonkeyman4246d ago

With so many shooters being planned for the future, can you really blame me for looking for something else?

Curious enough to watch news about it, not curious enough to want to buy it though. A minecraft clone is a minecraft clone. There's not much you could do to make your version better without losing out on other aspects of what make Minecraft fun.

You could argue that nearly all games are clones of one another. Due to the danger of releasing a bad game, game developers stick to industry norms while at times offering a small inconsequential innovation which may or may not be massively accepted. For this reason I am fine with clone games as there is always that possibility that they may offer something entirely new in the process.

Codewow4246d ago (Edited 4246d ago )

Typically games that take from another game don't also look exactly like that other game though.

I'm actually going to buy this just because the minecraft creator refused to put minecraft on Wii U, even though it is literally available everywhere else. For every sale he sees, it's a sign of a potential customer he lost by not releasing a Wii U version of the game.

Skate-AK4247d ago

Maybe he didn't want to because he was already in talks with Microsoft to buy the company. They said he hasn't been working on Minecraft since 2012. If you guys really want it on Wii U, you need to tweet 4J Studios.

OtakuDJK1NG-Rory4247d ago (Edited 4247d ago )

That never work for Nintendo fans. Nintendo fans are told to tweet to developers for many games such Soul Calibur II HD.

Never would happen.

For all we know this is just several cube primitives assembled in unity3D lol.

I used to buy cheap games thinking I’d play them later, but I always ended up returning to my favorites. Now I skip the deals unless I know I’ll play the game soon.

This is very true, my nephews grew up on these two games and whenever I introduce them a AAA game whether old or new, it's like seeing an alien try to make sense of it and then quickly lose interest in it.

Can’t really expect a 8 year old Roblox kid to go buy resident evil 9 lol

CrimsonWing6958d ago

Gaming trends are so weird to me now. Like, I’m old school and games were consumed essentially how movies were. You play through a title and look forward to the sequel or other things that came out. Now, that is so not the norm.
