In this case you trade it in for not being confused for Minecraft anymore though
I suppose. But I think, minetest as a project was strengthend by its proximity to minecraft. The big reason you pick up luanti is that its like minecraft, but free and with more modding freedom. I dont think this is bad thing to be reflected in a name. But good luck to them, maybe they can pull the name change off without hurting their public recognition too much.
I always thought minetest is a cheap minecraft clone, mainly for testing or smth.
So yeah, its a good name change
Yeah. I agree it’s rough to lose existing recognition, but I think the
test
in the name was hurting adoption quite a bit.When I tried
mineTest
last, I was thinking, “what the hell, this will amuse me for an afternoon.”I did not expect a feature complete game engine with a better more polished game than vanilla MineCraft.
