      I think Minecraft is in a stage where Microsoft just wants enough changes to keep people engaged. The game is more-or-less complete and could be left in its current state as a final version. That said, I think the world generation revamp is justifiable and I look forward to it.

      Having Minecraft's final version would be great for the modding and custom server communities - no more breaking changes.

    I was looking forward to a play through on all the new features so it's a shame to see it delayed but then again I'm glad we're seeing a games company who are willing to delay for the right reasons, hopefully it's a step on the way to less crunch and better respect for devs from publishers.
