Hytale Feels Like A Neat Minecraft Texture Pack But Not Much More

I’m having a lovely time playing the early access release of Hytale. But then of course I am: I love playing Minecraft. So I’m enjoying building a pretty little log cabin, exploring underground caves for precious ores, battling skeletons with a bow and arrows, and travelling far from spawn to visit distant biomes. Because that’s what I do when I play Minecraft. What I’ve yet to figure out is why Hytale exists as anything other than a texture pack for Microsoft’s behemoth.
