looks really nice, great textures! but i dont see any big differences from minecraft, is there any features that pushes it further? the video makes me think it would have more rpg elements than minecraft, but the steam page fails to mention any.
Yeah, I was kinda disappointed when I loaded up the video and saw just how minecraft-esque it looks. Not to be a douche I hope, but I think if you need to put so much emphasis on what things make it not a clone, you've got a fundamental problem in the concept. It needs to be able to stand on its own better than that. If…
There's a Let's Play that popped up in the related videos after the trailer.

Just making some of the more familiar tiles like the grass…
Any plans to have diagonal blocks be placed procedurally later? Having naturally smooth terrain alone would go a hell of a long way toward making it look distinct from Minecraft.
You should post up a vid Juan :) I just double checked and it seems like it has some different features compared to Minecraft, but just from the screenshots alone it is hard to tell.
Could be something as simple (or maybe not so simple) as diagonal blocks (like ramps). Could make it look more like legos than minecraft that way. Especially if the world were able to generate those blocks into the landscape. But again, maybe that's not so simple.
Yes!! Lack of such things in minecraft is entirely for aesthetic reasons, blocks can even be unique meshes these days. I think Creativerse with its more high-end look could really make good use of more blocks that weren't just a block, tufts of grass hanging off the ledge of the top dirt to grass block for example?
