It will be very hard, perhaps impossible, for Mojang (or any other company) to replicate the success of Minecraft. But I don't think 0x10c needs to be as successful as Minecraft is. As long as they can make at least a little profit on 0x10c all will be fine. From what I've seen and understand about the game, I think 0x10c will certainly be profitable.

The nice thing about 0x10c will be that in a way it's another sandbox game as well, but this time the sandbox is the on-ship computer instead of the world. But I also think the game will offer plenty for people who are not into programming. Markus streamed the FPS capabilities of the game recently: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w2k8QBcaaUM

It will be profitable, but it needs to be extremely profitable to justify a $1 billion valuation on the company.
