Just days after launch, Hytale mods already let you run Windows 95, Minecraft, and somehow even Hytale itself within the sandbox RPG, and Hypixel has questions: "How"

These sandbox games sure have a way of attracting a certain kind of delightfully-deranged people who defy the laws of physics to make these things possible.
Start the countdown timers for things like Doom, GameBoy emulator, microprocessor, etc…

If you can run Windows 95 then it technically runs Doom already by extension right?

It says in the article that it already is running Doom.

I love how crazy people get with building computers in side games. It's impressive stuff.
I wonder if the game itself is good though

General consensus I've seen is that it's fun but you can tell it's early alpha. It's also not different enough from Minecraft if you're bored of Minecraft.

Just my opinion, but I could only see this being true for people who play modded Minecraft. The combat is very different, farming and food is very different, the enemies are different, there's a bunch of furniture in the game. There's a very good, built-in character customization system. It visually looks very different.
I'd need, like, 4 mods and a shader in Minecraft to get a similar experience.
Not saying Hytale is better or worse. But, I think it's done well to separate itself in the survival genre so far and it only just released in early access. If the voxel-type game isn't something a person generally likes, it's easy to look at it and think, "Block game is similar to block game."

that's why this article is NOT surprising at all. people essentially just ported the machines/PCs they made in MC to this game, since this is literally a reskinned Minecraft, or a standalone mod for Minecraft.
