I've started playing Vintage Story and you really realize how empty Minecraft is.

Minecraft is still extremely polished, even with the bugs, and for some reason literally no other game can touch how smooth Minecraft feels to play, but it's just so empty.

It's wild they never added mobs like the Mo Creatures mod did like a decade ago.

They then have mob votes, but then take months and months to implement 1 single mob, and then half ass it anyway. Every single mob they've added via mob vote feels extremely half baked. Like the sniffer having TWO plants? TWO???

And then when you beat Minecraft the credits are over an hour long. How can you have so many developers but somehow develop slower than when it was just Notch himself?

I picked up Vintage Story after seeing someone else recommend it. I haven't made it too far, but even with the lack of people, the world still feels more alive. The crafting is nice and more advanced, and it's a bit less forgiving.

Plan on putting a bit more time into it once I finish up with my No Man's Sky playthrough.
