The truth is that as an early access game there is a lot of room for innovation, as a "Minecrafter" I love the game but would never go back to the vanilla version, modded all the way.
The terrain generation is absolutely incredible but the world is in need of "things" buildings, plants ( think of Pam's Harvest craft) with all the fruit trees, flowers and cooking options, think of a version of Immersive Engineering.
Tyron is a one man show, and has a road map that he is been working relentlessly. But he also has an army of passionate followers, many of them know how to code. So please modders do your best!
The game has to be flexible, hardcore for the ones who like that tipe of game and more Zen like for people like me that like to build and explore and just unwind from a stressful day.
The addition of mods does not impact the original game or it's balance since they are an option you take, and you add them if you so wish, that said the mod page has to be updated. . . please and thank you.
And to all of my Vintarian friends have a great day! Peace and love. . . real or imagined.
