It hurts to imagine there is an alternate universe where Notch was mutinied by Dock, who then later hired Jeb to polish the game without Notch's spaghetti code in the way and with an actually enjoyable aesthetic to make it more interesting.

Honestly, did Notch even make Minecraft? I'm almost beginning to think he just took credit for it and didn't actually DO anything.

He posted "idea guy" rants. He must have had a ghostwriter doing the actual work.

It's really not. Floating islands generate as a mostly horizontal and uninteresting series of 100% surface-level turf, which doesn't deliver on the concept in the slightest.

Flaot is appealing to me at least because of how vertically complex it is, how the distribution of islands makes this neat sort-of abstract art thing that opens up for a real variety of designs and looks.

Floating islands is huts and bridges and more huts, Flaot is a ring of massive walls spanning multiple islands, leading in towards vertical staircases that take you down into a huge pit-castle that hangs from all the islands and takes you far below it all, with glass floors and spooky lighting that give you a real good look at the nothingness below.

The worst case of What Could Have Been that I've ever seen is Crash Twinsanity. The people behind it were making their love project and they kept getting slammed with budget cuts and arbitrary deadlines to the point they had to cut an entire third of the game and most of the exploration stuff they wanted to make.

It was still enjoyable, but playing you could definitely tell there was a lot more potential to be realized with it. I love games that play around with tag-team / duo mechanics and have you controlling multiple characters.

Remember how Adventure mode was announced and never actually happened? Also, I recently listened to the soundtrack again, and I honestly think it's a fucking incredible OST which hugely contributed to the overall appeal of the game.

For any Minecraft connoisseurs out there; what's the best version for mods? I know the later versions lack many vital mods.

Do you really think Jeb is Minecraft's savior?

C'mon faggot, look at what the game has added since he was appointed as main dev, fucking nothing.

Game should have never catered to kids, that's all.

No, that's Wil Wright's original vision for pic related. Instead of the grandest most epic game that would have ever existed, we got paint-by-numbers alien candy-land for children and people that like to make penis-monsters.

It's there. It removes the ability to removes blocks, unless you have the proper tool.

>>15591119

But it's no longer needed because of Forge! :^)
