New, less moddable minetest game?

[Hume2]

MTG is cool. Do imagine the same implementation in 20 separated mods from several developers? A HELL.

I.e. vessels are useless, yes, but they are the base for potions for example. Who wants to implement a bottle in each game? Me not.

Certain parts of the code could be improved to be more of an API.

I think, you misunderstood this. This is not about making the API more general but more specific.

PS: Minecraft has not story, well to kill the dragon hahaha.

I agree completely.

Minecraft has not story, well to kill the dragon hahaha.

This is a very narrow idea of what storytelling is.

what you could do is have 2 pre installed games one for modding, and one for story.
also i talk to a friend that i pushed for him to get MT and he got it then thought it was boring because he didnt install mods and there was no story
that is really killing the game
i really think that there needs to be a story version and i am willing to help write it, add lore, and get ideas.
just pm me to get help with making a story for it
fyi i love lore!!!!!!
also i see alot of people that talk about adding a story but nobody does so i think now is the time for action!
We should also contact the developers and get them on board

I'm against "pre installed" because this would add unwanted bulk to users who choose to customize. However this could easily be implemented via the content database. The story version would be downloaded by choice. When a user opens Minetest for the very first time they would see the Logo then 2 choices. A kid attention grabbing logo design "Minetest Space invaders" or whatever (ie from first game idea in this thread) then under that, "minetest custom/single player/content database"

So I'm with you guys but not as a default install. Just changing the position of the content database with 1 flashy attention grabbing logo for the story version.
