Given its rocky path to get here, I have 100% confidence early access will be a buggy mess.

What remains to be seen is 1) if they can clean it up fast enough to stay relevant, and 2) if it will be a compelling enough upgrade to draw people away from Minecraft.

I suspect 2) is going to be incredibly difficult to get right. Sure the gameplay might be better, but Minecraft is one of the most overly documented and heavily modded games ever. If they want to convince people to give up years of work optimizing every aspect of that game to come play in their sandbox they're gonna have to get clever.
