I haven't touched SL in a long time, but it's quite different. Money plays a very real role in SL. It also lends itself very well to role playing, since you can make your character look however you want. There used to be lots of adult stuff as well. From Playboy mansion, over brothels to kinky, furry stuff. The modeling tools in general are so much stronger as well. I've randomly discovered a strange, Japanese inspirited palace where people dress up as horses and pull others around in wagons. I've watched Hollywood movies in in-game cinemas. It's very different from Minecraft.
