At least, assuming there is a future, they will be vindicated. Future generations will greatly appreciate finding archives such as this.

But what is a fork for then?

Like, I get you, I don’t disagree, but you can’t put in a massive technology tree with fusion reactors or Dyson sphere stuff in the same game where you add high-fantasy stuff with magic and eldritch stuff, while at the same time having guns and cars and a post-apocalypse setting…

The whole idea is that those sort of things would be mods. Anything that could potentially be shared and useful to all players could go into the base, like back-end stuff, yes, but there’s also a lot that would be bespoke to mods and shouldn’t be in the core

Idk if you’ve been updated with the news, but there have been major management changes, like riot selling the game back to the original devs. The original devs then went back to work on a previous version that was already close to release

And then you’re left with hundreds of forks that are incompatible with each other. The whole point of mods is that they’re interoperable

Yeah, I second this. Until luanti has the equivalent of GregTech: New Horizons I will stay with Minecraft. Not modern Minecraft, just whatever good modpacks I wanna play

Though, for that reason, I’d play luanti it it has its own “killer modpacks”. I play for the mods, not the base game, really

The true answer to this is that we simply don’t know. Consciousness is perhaps the greatest mystery in our universe
