Interesting, do they want to be less of a direct clone or what's the motivation here?

I know that Wuzzy (project initiator) once said they got tired of working on MineClone pretty fast, because you can only do what the original has done. There's pretty much no creativity allowed when cloning...

I don't know the answer, but I hope it's because they want to do some more creative things. Minecraft itself has been fairly stagnant since bringing the voxel genre to the mainstream.

Fully agree. I‘m torn on it because I personally use copying to learn. The more faithful I can be to the original, the better. Also, because its a good way to get folks who want the original but without microsoft (which is me).

Pretty much. Yes.

The game has always had differences and sometimes the contributors can get a little firm on folk for differing because it's called MineClone2. Well now it isn't. The term inspired by rather than clone has been used for a while now.
