So is it like an open source Minecraft? Considering what sort of amazing mods people can make without the base game being open source, I can't imagine how awesome it'll be.

There is already open source Minecraft:

  • Luanti (formerly: Minetest)
  • Verloren (a bit more like Dragon Quest: Builders)

If you want a foss (not just "you can’t do anything with it") minecraft clone, there’s Luanti

It is not Minecraft. It's an MMO

Not quite, you can't shape the world like Minecraft. It's more comparable to Trove. There is Luanti but despite how much I want to like it, it's just not quite there.
