They originally expected 250k views on the trailer in the first week, and got 32 million views by the end of the month. Especially with the amount it has blown up over the past month. You can't really compare Hytale to Roblox for a few reasons, but we don't have to discuss that now as it might derail the thread a little.Ĭonsidering how experienced the Hytale staff seem to be when it comes to what gamers want in a game, and that it's sponsored by Riot Games, which is a company I've heard doesn't shove microtransactions in your face, I think it's going to take off. If this happens, then we just continue to try and keep the server going like nothing happened. (The amount of money they spend is literally choking Java edition tbh.) Riot will get meme'd on even harder by their playerbase, which, really, they did to themselves. It'll be a huge flop, hypixel will shrug his shoulders, and continue to suck up the general player population, dev pool, and advertising squares on every serverlist for minecraft. and thus, there goes our entire potential playerbase. And I imagine 90% of the java edition either way will move to Hytale if it turns out. If this happens, I'd still like to see a move from minecraft to hytale, mainly because at least they actually help content creators and server devs work on their stuff, rather than create huge updates specifically to break most modding, and try and divide up the modding community more and more across multiple versions so there's a perceived lack of players who want to play modded and creators and players simply give up and move to realms. That game is still huge even years down the line.

It won't really compete with the current "I have full control over every aspect of the engine and can even make money with the crap I make" giant that is Roblox, but I assume it'll still be a blip on the map for it.


It'll be moderately successful, suck up a lot of the general population that enjoys mods, as well as a large part of Hypixel's base servers and quite a few content creators who just don't want to dev Minecraft anymore (Looking at you, Heroes plugin.

Honestly I do hope this occurs, and we just say screw this game, the devs don't actually care about the community that want to make content, they can go ahead and sell the "haha u cannot mod anymore xd" game to whoever wants it for some reason, considering the moddable java edition is becoming smaller and smaller by the day. If this happens, massivecraft will probably **have** to move to the new game, as well as a lot of servers. You can actually make a shitload of money.) It could be the next Roblox and be the main competitor against 'blox (Which has actually gotten bigger as more and more modders and players who enjoyed community made content moved away from Micro-craft. It's going to be the next big thing and what a vast majority of the minecraft general population is going to make a huge migration to, because of the sheer lack of care given to the game's modding community and non-vanilla players by Jeb_, as well as server owners and creators tired of microsoft's attempts to kill modding. And if it doesn't crash, well, that's just a great bonus.Įven Notch said something to the effect of "it looks like it has soul" when asked on Twitter, dismissing the idea of it being a cheap clone. Worst case scenario, as long as I jump on soon enough, I'll probably get 6-12 months of active community and development, even if it crashes after that. When it comes out, I am buying it (assuming it costs money) and I'm going to be on that bandwagon. It has proper backing its not just some shit app store tier clone.

On top of that, the game has 3 years of work done already, and is funded by Epic Games, the company behind League of Legends. If any group is going to make Minecraft 2 and do it right, its one spawned from his work. He basically invented Adventure Maps as we imagine them today, with Herobrine's Mansion and Herobrine's Revenge, and his minigames, from even before server minigames were big (Walls was a redstone-run map originally) defined another Era of the game. It looks like a lot of fun, and Hypixel himself is one of the oldest faces on the scene. I personally have optimistic hope for Hytale.
