You know what’s even worse? They started patching methods for modding on Xbox before this. So this was not only in the works for awhile, but they are actively trying to stop players from getting around it. It’s absolutely disgusting and I think notch should pull a George Lucas and try to buy his creation back
I mean Minecraft is probably worth more as an actual ip now than when notch sold it so unless he’s some sort of investing genius I feel like he can’t buy it back. But Star Wars actually was losing money I’m pretty sure so it makes more sense for George Lucas to have the ability to buy it back even though I doubt that will ever happen either. But stuff like this where Microsoft is adding a new thing for them to monetize off of Minecraft does make it more valuable from the business perspective cuz they aren’t going to get that much from more game sales but they have a massive install base now they can push out micro transactions to
Notch doesn’t care about Minecraft he thought, and hoped it would just be a small little indie game but ever since a grew passed that he didn’t really care for it also, why are people idolizing notch all of a sudden? He has said some questionable things at the very least.
Yeah, I hated it when they tried to stop people from downloading things off the internet with an Xbox
George Lucas never bought anything back.
That part is Mircosoft not mojang
The worst part is that you have been able to get mods for free for Xbox and Mobile for at least 5 years and now instead of making it more accessible they make it harder or pay for it.
No you haven’t
@@davisvoelzke8011 lad what do you mean lmao, search up rn how to get mods for free Xbox and look how many years it’s been possible lmao
For mobile and pc on bedrock it is still extremely easy to get mods
@@hyperbreath not in xbox
@@davisvoelzke8011 there is/was a way (I don’t know if it still works)
Thank you for giving my Add-Ons a try! Whether people agree with Add-Ons being free or monetized is certainly up for discussion but make no mistake, players have been annoyed with existing Marketplace and asking for this since the launch of the Marketplace so I'm glad Mojang has finally given me the opportunity to provide that to people who want it while also allowing me to keep making a living doing it.
Also had to laugh with your printer struggles, should have seen it when prints failed half of the time and it got jammed...
Your map Infinity Skyblock is so good that it was worth the money
Hello, my grandson is visiting for the summer. He played Minecraft a couple of years ago so we got it on Xbox live account. I caught him in the marketplace. He got 6 addon's before I saw him. How much is it going to cost?
@@TT-cu7ze depends on the addons, some are free, some are $1 some are $8
The fact that they were gatekeeping addons to a specific world was insane to begin with. This is a step in the right direction for sure and I don’t mind paying for these things as long as it’s properly handled by Mojang and the content is not plagiarized and shovelware itself.
However I doubt anything will come with it as the Marketplace itself is a disaster. I’m sure it’ll become just as bad as the “one world only” Addons due to the insane copy and paste that has been done already.
I also don’t get why they are gatekeeping the addons outside of the game itself either. I’m still upset that I have to use a realm and PC/Pocket Addition in order to get ANYTHING outside of the MP. Not to mention the willingness to get things on the MP as a modder depends on many things and is dampened due to the poor implementation of Marketplace and Copyright being so fickle in MP.
Also, this is bad for the community as well. it hurts the community because mods that are made when $ involved are usually ones made without passion or at least are copy and pasted. You CANNOT tell me you are okay with the state of the Marketplace, look at it, that thing is filled with shovelware.
I don’t mind paying for mods in the slightest, I think modders need payment too but when you get down to how MP is and how badly it operates you cannot overlook the bad side of the pay for mods motto.
Mojang is also gatekeeping free addons. They created a system that doesnt allow just anyone to post on all platforms. Further more, they also don’t allow the platforms, especially platforms like PlayStation or Switch, to get addons from other sources. In order to get other mods on anything you have to own Realms and BUY THE GAME AGAIN on PC or Mobile. The ONLY other option is to get mods from the MP which already dictates whether or not modders can post their products. This in itself hurts the modders as they cannot freely post what they want nor be held responsible for the bad product as there is so much wrong with MP already. The copyright, the poor handling of certain situations and much more is so scummy and cannot be overlooked.
This is a step in the right direction, there just needs to be a medium between the two and Mojang needs to step up if they really want creativity to prosper on their Marketplace because as it stands, it’s shovelware and nothing more.
@@D44RK_Iced_Yogs
I'm gonna say with full honesty, 3 Bedrock players could make more content than Mojang does in a year.
Within a month.
They're literally scamming us at this point.
gatekeeping add-ons is such a great way to phrase it 😂
The marketplace is infested with copy paste shovelware
They weren’t gatekeeping them, 90% of addons used beta features, they needed a while to flesh out Minecraft addons creation to a stable state so addons would be possible without Minecraft related bugs, glitches, and crashes.
Can't wait for when they port a shitty version of All The Mods to the MC marketplace and charge like 20 bucks for it
I don't think bedrock has a stable enough infrastructure for that
@@akirapink Bedrock is technically more stable than Java, but the devices it is on wouldn't be able to handle it.
If they finally make PS5 and Series X Versions of the Game then full blown Mod Pack style Add-Ons would definitely work.
I mean there's really no guarantee they'd all be shitty, maybe not as content filled, but that doesn't equate to bad.
I say also long they give 90% or 80% of the money to the mods maker it's fine
@@Sir_Slimbread Bedrock isn't more stable than Java at all. Legacy Console Edition was much more stable. There's no reason why a cubic game has worse performance than games like the Witcher etc
i always play vanilla but feel id be more willing to play with an add on than any actual mod, but the fact it disables achievements makes me not want to do it on my main world, i think as long as theyre not affecting how you get any achievements some should be allowed even with achievements on
I would love for them to still allow Achievments, but I wouldn't really want to inject Add-Ons into my longterm world anyway.
I'd rather just start a fresh world with them.
I mean with the Add-Ons that currently exist you could create a decent sized Mod Pack, nothing crazy like All The Mods, but something a little more tame.
That’s what I’m saying I just want to have the pet add on and get achievements
@@Sir_Slimbread only thing I’d consider adding to my main world is like the pet add on, but I won’t be
@@Kingpin_2058 same lmao
@@jamesperrott1 I was thinking the pet one too, I literally just started my channel two weeks ago and am 10 episodes deep into my Lp but I’m not sure if I should add them to make it more unique or not. Only ones grounded in vanilla though like pets
They barely work and now they're selling mods? It's to be expected that in the future they'll charge for mods they didn't make!! (If it's not happening already)
Didn’t they already not make these addons?
They get a cut of the money each time something is sold, so technicallyyyyyyyyyyy...
you know that mojang doesnt make the mods? its the community and the COMMUNITY sells them on the marketplace. Soo mojang just added a way for modders to make money
@@fldom4610yeah, basically they're capitalizing off of other people and only letting them make money if it's on their stupid marketplace.
@@Lunarcreeper but still, modders make money and i think its better to have a stable place to put all these mods for than giving it via mediafire or smh
I'm not sure, and NOT a lawyer, but I think this breaks minecraft's own TOS
How so?
@@L3go_Man87 I think that the TOS says something about how it isn't okay to sell modifications or in-game content for real money, but I might've just accidentally made that up
@@jakeplaysgames_A I think you're right, but that's because that's a whole different way/system compared to how Mojang are doing this...plus it's there own game and rules at the end of the day. 🤷🏼♂️
@@L3go_Man87I think it's fucked that we as a people have gotten so complacent with companies pulling bullshit that goes against their own TOS and then changing it so that it no longer breaks it that some people just submit to the changes they make.
..that's not how eulas work. Mojang is not the End User.
I prefer the free mod packs that you can just download
You still can.
@@PeacockLover127unfortunately it seems they’re trying to prevent outside modpacks from being installed
We don't care about being free, we care about the effort put into them
You can't really do that on console, but go ahead and continue to use those on PC.
@@SirPizzaPasta no they are not.
We shouldn’t have to pay for something we know Mojang and Microsoft has always wanted to be paid for. Under Notch, something like this would never happen, and on the contrary, old Mojang would’ve tried to make modding easier without the influence of Microsoft.
Copy and pasted comment
I absolutely love this. I'm a console player who has a realm with friends for the last few years. We have keep inventory turned on so we already don't get achievements and now having access to mods is game changing. I'm so excited to get some of them for our world.
I mean, when there's already countless maps being sold where the whole point is modded survival but you're always just stuck using the mods in that one map, this is honestly just an upgrade to what we already have. It seems silly to be mad at them selling the ability to add custom furniture and weapons to your world when they were already selling you the ability to have custom furniture and weapons, but only in one single isolated world where you just sit there and go "... Yep, that's a couch... Now what?" I mean, you can argue that these kinds of maps shouldn't even exist and the map specific add-ons should be used more for things like the Sonic map, but when these kinds of maps already exist, this new add-on feature is just giving already paying customers the value they were expecting to get from their weapons++ add-on instead of disappointing them with an isolated modded world with nothing to do in it
At the end of the day, you don't have to buy them. But at least these are better as add ons and something we can actually use...compared do the other texture packs and what not that's already on the Minecraft Store 😊
Preach 🙏
I know some people could get these already on PC and Pocket devices, but for someone who plays on a console, Add-Ons are the best thing to come out of the Marketplace.
@@sparkz5884 I agree, they are better than the normal packs we have which are very limiting. 🙂
@@sparkz5884 Uh, not even close. Bethesda showed with Skyrim and Fallout on console you COULD have the same FREE mods that PC players get, people just aren't smart enough to realize they're being scammed. They COULD allow the free java mods on bedrock and people to create free mods for it, but they don't because then they couldn't sell them. It's sh*tty to anyone with a brain.
"You don't have to buy it, ignore it" is what got so many games ruined through predatory microtransactions
No. It's not okay when Skyrim did it, it's not okay now.
They have been since PE 1.1.5 😂😂
Ok.
Why isn't it okay though, if modders want to mod for fun they can still release the mods for free, if they want to earn money they have that option now. Genuinely asking why this hurts the gaming/modding community.
@@rssadiwala95it hurts the community because mods that are made with $ involved are usually ones made without passion. You CANNOT tell me you are okay when you look at the MarketPlace, that thing is filled with shovelware.

As someone who's been playing bedrock a lot lately with kids. I see that there are some free ones and I am super happy about this. If more creators want to put their stuff for free I am all for it.
While I am upset as bedrock users have to pay. I would rather support my creators directly 1-5$ than try to dodge viruses and ads on some of the more sketchy download sites to get a trojan horse on my pc.. 😅
Kids are going to be super excited about the wool and Pets. I can't wait to tell them. Sadly I don't think I can put them on our achievement world we have been building together the past week.
In Java, we offer big salmon sacrifices to the gods for all the free mods we want
what emoji is that lmfao
@@mrmemer2179it’s a channel released emoji, he’s a member of their channel so he gets perks.
Bedrock has always had free addons, this is mostly for console players or creators who want their addons to be easily accessible to mc players
@@kcoolthegamer isn't it funny how the free content is always much less easily accessible than the paid one? Damn, it's as if Mojang specifically did it that way to get more money.
8:25 the fact that he crafted a black dye when there was one literally one space above the wither rose is so unapologetically toycat
tbf, squid ink can be used for book and quills, but also it should be said toycat had over a stack of the stuff and only four (4) wither roses (which also have some unique uses, particular in wither skeleton farms)
I never really understood the hate behind the marketplace, just don’t interact with it if you don’t like it? Curse Mojang for giving free update while trying to monetize optional side content for money right? As a kid on the old console versions I remember seeing hoaxes about mod packs coming to the game and I was really excited, even knowing I’d probably have to pay for it in the store.
"just don’t interact with it if you don’t like it?"
"Just ignore it" is what got us into this industry that's infested with horrible microtransactions and predatory practices.
So many great games have been ruined from stuff like this
@@EmperorPenguin1217Okay but what the harm in Minecraft? All I see is a way for players on all devices to have a safe and official way of getting addons, resource packs, map, and skins while supporting the community members who made them. You attacking the decent micro transactions in gaming won’t magically get rid of the problem
Esspecially in a market where Java modding used to be notoriously toxic to do.
@@FrogmanSir
- Pushing monetisation on a game aimed primarily aimed at children
- Using a virtual coin system to obfuscate how much money people are actually spending and take more money than people actually want to spend because bundles give more coins than you need for add-ons
- This stuff used to be free universally as standard
- Mojang are making a cut off of fan content they didn't make
- They intentionally limit the capabilities of the add-ons to one preset world because they don't trust you to manage your own devices
@@bujustic1 and 2 are valid
3. Most community-made stuff is still free but at the detriment to the players and creators. The process of getting mods on Java is very difficult and convoluted for the average person. It’s a little easier on Bedrock but unsafe, as a lot of download pages have ad-redirects and sketchy links just so the Creators monetize their work.
4. Mojang provides the tools to create packs, a platform built into the game to host the packs, and advertises the packs on social media. Creators make way more money with the extra publicity and all it costs is a percentage cut.
5. They literally just changed this rn that’s what this video is about.
Outro joke was funny in a “ouch, too realistic” way, 7/10. 19:50- “In (your) wheel house”, Toycat? I guess this was a good silly video that also makes people angry to contrast with yesterday’s serious video that makes people sad. You truly are a man of many talents, Toycat! ❤
He's been more unhinged in the past, remember the ghost pepper?
Finally! Non-PC and Mobile players can use mods outside of worlds, albeit with a price...
still a W for non-mobile and PC players
People on mobile can download free mods
Better than nothing
@@TreeFrogMCAnd that's why they said Non-PC and Mobile players, the NON part is for both PC and Mobile.
@@TreeFrogMC did u not even read my comment lmao
@sparkz5884 ah, I see my mistake. I didn't connect the non with the mobile
As someone who despises microtransactions and the marketplace especially, I love how they're adding more to the game 😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃🔫
I don't really care to be honest, I've always wanted mods and if I have to pay, I will 🙂
same here! it’s a sad truth but young me would’ve been stoked to have ‘mods’ on consoles
@brock3257 this was younger mes dream. I'm not going to stop playing Vanilla, I'm just here for the ride and excited to see how addons advance. I really like the naturalist addon, for instance.
There's some pretty good free ones already which is a good sign.
Plus some of the paid ones have Lite versions that are free which is cool.
yes, this is okay, i personally wish they made those development tools available to all creators tho, marketplace or not.
In short. Im Glad i can finally Add Something to my 8 year old world. Idc its not the same industry that staryed years Ago.
Honestly to me whos played Minecraft on console since it released on console, i dont mind paying a few bucks here and there for add ons i like, modding on console has always been either a major pain, or had heavy restrictions in games so honestly especially for a game like Minecraft i think this is a major improvement to the way marketplace content works, and to me an add on i can apply to any world is a major improvement, ive never bought anything on the marketplace until today because restricting things to one world made things not even worth buying
Interesting how modding the game for free has restrictions, while modding by giving money suddenly becomes very easy. As is it's specifically designed that way... 🤔
@@gamermapper it is designed that way... people wanting money isn't a crime
All that is missing now is ray tracing and VR for the PS5, this + add-ons = the perfect minecraft experience!
to be fair.. mods aren't a thing for console gaming and them adding it won't affect your vanilla playthrough. the REAL problem is if they don't allow the community mods to be priced by the community (because most of it would then be free anyway)
Honestly the first mod you showed is pretty neat.
Idc what people gonna say but this is a good thing for bedrock, i feel like its going to bring more people to the platform to experiment with it.
I just browsed the selection that currently exists and there are some really good free Add-Ons.
Gravestone's alone is a game changer not to mention one that adds in Dragons, and new Weapons/Armor.
Free Java Mods > Paid Bedrock Mods
Boo
This is unnecessary polarising, when there are a lot of people who can't use Java for social situations.
It is not untrue for redstone though
Free java mods = free bedrock addons
🎶Not everyone can afford a pc🎶
@@jasongrim2027that’s when a medium like the Marketplace is needed. Too bad Mojang can’t actually get a proper thing going and dropped the ball immediately with mods on bedrock.
@@jasongrim2027pojavlauncher....
Wait so the mods that you download for free crash your device if you have too many on at once. Would that work the same with these paid for ones?
Probably
They don’t really seem that optimized if that’s the case. I get that it’s always a factor but I’d imagine if it crashes with no more than 5 it’s bad.
If you are talking about the ones you have to externally acquire, then of course they are unstable.
I'm sure these curated Add-Ons have a threshold where they'll crash your device, but that goes for Java Mods as well.
There's only so much you can add to a game before it can't take it anymore.
That's one of the reasons official console modding hasn't been implemented into many games.
@@D44RK_Iced_Yogs I have like 12 paid addons on, and I don't get crashes
I only play and only want to play vanilla (even on java) so I don't care if they are selling bare minimum mods. However I do find it extremely scummy and just a slap in the face for us who can't mod like people can on pc.
The worst bit of these mods are the little animations when you place the entities
Ughh I hate it when the added items aren't blocks and are entities-
That's why I try to avoid some mods, if they can't work with the version I play on or if they aren't easy to download, depending on what I'm using.
A good rule of thumb for this at least for now. If it looks like a block it's an entity.
Yoshi resort addon coming soon to the Minecraft marketplace trust
No it’s not okay. But if the marketplace is going to exist then it should have add-ons. “Mods” should’ve been one of the only things on the marketplace instead of these lame “adventure” maps that have a few cool items without the ability to port them into your personal worlds.
This is actually good ngl
When Microsoft got Minecraft everybody said it will now die.
After a few months I said "it did not die people just over reacting"
Now I think this is what kills it Microtransaction they put microtransaction on the most vulnerable version bedrock/pocket edition. so this is what they meant when they said they're working for modding on those versions.
Let’s be honest I rather pay for an add-on then getting a virus, plus we can finally support are favorite people, I do hope they start doing mods as well
Finally? Patreon has been a thing for about a decade
I just noticed that my badge has turned green! 🥳🎉🎉🎉
Cheers
i dont mind because i see mods as additional content to enhance the minecraft experience it makes sense its paid but theres a nice amount of free add ons rn on bedrock so go download them the best ones is the hiking one and the furniture one
I'm not the biggest fan of mods, but I also can't say that computer wasn't cool...
Mind blown
Rainbow wool will make a sick party room
This is really good as they might add trains and car mods you can get for your worlds
When your computer is stuck on 'downloading' the add ons, but isn't actually downloading anything.
Mijang going agaisn THEIR OWN EULA is hialrius and hypocritical
eula is for mods, not addons
@@fldom4610 these are essentially mods. You ADD ON to the vanilla game. c'mon man. Mojang just want to avoid any backlash just renaming what it actually is...mods.
@@megamegaO mods change the game's code, while addons add to it
damn the bots beat me
Really terrific video. Thank you for the thoughtful reviews and the frank commentary at the end. I passed it along to some folks :)
tbh i like this idea cause it gives me a reason to come back to minecraft to play and i have no problem with paying for mods as long as the creators are getting a cut
Just like for Bethesda, I have no issues with paid mods so long as free mods are still allowed to be added to the game. I really don't get peoples anger to the existence of paid mods. If you don't like it, don't buy it.
There's still stuff that they have to fix when it comes to the marketplace however this is definitely a step in the right direction and it still blows my mind that it took them this long to finally make it a reality. As far as console players go this is the most exciting thing Mojang has released on the marketplace by far. Still hoping for shaders in the future but for now this is cool
Yesterday I downloaded an add on pack that was free: More Pets
It gives you 10 new animals that you tame with the added collar and when you give them a crafted treet the give you buff bonuses
The big question I have is if these add-ons will corrupt your world save after an update or 2 like how some of the add-ons you find on Mcpedl do or if they will gitch out do to becoming outdated.
While I don’t necessarily think it’s okay, I am loving having access to these things finally in any form
Well, at least now we have mods, but the idea of deactivating the achievements it's just ridiculous, i would understand if it was like Bethesda games mods where anyone can add a mod, but a curated marketplace doesn't make sense, even Bethesda still allow achievements when you use only mods from the marketplace
They should make it so "jeb_" sheep could drop rainbow wool when sheared
the thing is, it's alright if the creators themselves are selling them.
if you dont like it, dont buy the addons! its like a simple problem has an insanely simple solution! crazy!
As someone who fell in love with the computercraft mod i have to say that computer was the sadest excuse of a mod I've ever seen. Meanwhile on java rather than playing a text only game on a computer you can play doom or minecraft for the luls. To say nothing of redstone connectivity and actual programming being a part of the mod. My biggest gripe here is that the quality will be trash at the end, there wont be mods that act as frameworks to change how you play and instead flashy mods designed to get you to spend money using buzz words and overpowered mechanics.
I doubt that is the fault of the creator. Mojang limits what you can do with mods.
This is just going to lead to low effort content farms stealing mods and selling them on the marketplace
Rainbow wool is an actual seizure hazard, christ
the thing everyone is worried about, is minecraft becoming another sims 4. What i mean by this is nothing much on vanilla and most of content being locked by paywalls, paying for something you should be able to access for free as a part of the game you bought
It feels like a big reason they did this was to justify continuously making it impossible to mod Minecraft on xbox with outside mods everytime we found a new method. And because they want money. They only tried so hard to make it impossible to mod Minecraft on Xbox because they wanted to be paid for it
My personal downside is that it is pushing many players to no longer play vanilla Minecraft and I worry that there will be next to no vanilla Minecraft.
I bet a lot more adons are on the way I can’t wait
People are quick to blame the companies creating the storefront, but paid mods have existed before this, and will continue to. I don’t mind, as people who put as much work into these things as they do should get some sort of compensation, and the fact that people are using this shows that charging for mods is something they’re okay with. It’s nice to have free mods, and they will continue to exist after this, but people love pretending like things costing money is Microsoft’s fault, even though the people who actually make the content have no problem with it. Of course, some of those people are trying to make a quick buck, but I still think that people who put in the effort deserve some kind of compensation.
That being said, I don’t like how so much of Bedrock edition has been Microsoft trying to find ways to profit off of it. I look at the Java edition April Fool’s snapshots and see so much passion and creativity on display, because when the devs get to do what they want they can do a lot of cool stuff with this game. Meanwhile, Bedrock edition doesn’t even have custom model data. I rely on custom model data so much in my server that the idea of not having it is ridiculous. I had always thought that Bedrock would have the most tools for making custom content, as there is a major profit incentive from Microsoft to make those tools as robust as possible, but it’s simply not the case. It remains to be seen what the general economy of addons will be (As in, how much people charge for them and how much are in them) I could imagine a lot of people who already made addons will just re-release them on the official store. Though hopefully mods that were previously free stay free after moving to this store. I remember that NOT happening with Skyrim mods and that became a whole controversy
We should have had more modding and made it easier but instead Microsoft wants us to have people do micro transactions
My view without watching the video yet.
If any creator wants to charge for their work, they should be able to.
People who are not happy with the purchase feeling they didn’t get what they expected or just dont want it, should be able to refund within a certain time and lose access to it.
The ability to install add ons through alternate means should not be blocked.
Unfortunately, there will be copycats/scams/etc. And there's only so much that human or even automated moderation can do and such systems will ALWAYS have some flaw so trying to report any instance of a "bad mod" wont be so successful, the only generally good system is through something comunity driven.
Put simply, this shouldn't be seen on its own as a bad thing, the way its handled and the way we players, creators, the scammers, and Microsoft/Mojang treat this will all determine the way this is handled.
Wish some add-ons let you use them w/ out turning off trophies/ achievements
This is why Minecraft bedrock edition sucks as always and why Microsoft should just frick off for being alternative EA, actually everyone should flood this video and any other video that covers the this same topic (Mojang now selling add-ons on the marketplace) with negative comments about both Mojang and Microsoft and we should all do a large scale protest to force these companies to stop these toxic monetization practices.
Yeah I think I'll just stick to making my own mods on Java...
No, paying for mods is stupid. If I paid the creator directly it would be different. Console minecraft already sucks with how limited it is in available servers and how much you can change up the game.
Bedrock best rock
Hey could you make a video about Minecraft multiplayer, just a request, especially with the trial chambers?
I think its perfectly okay... Because does it really matter if us bedrock player have always wanted this stuff? When thry finally fo it whats wrong woth supporting thr people who make them? They do this and take weeks to make and get nothing?
No! Its good! Its good to support them!
People are going to be very upset when all these mods they paid for stop being supported and break in new updates.
They shouldn't break.
Since Mojang is in charge of the Marketplace I'm sure they will be careful not to cause them to break, plus the Add-On makers will have an incentive to keep them functional whereas a Mod creator can just let a Mod rot, because someone else will just recreate it.
Mojang is not going to keep track of all the mods to support them, with so many different people’s different code, and their creators are not going to keep updating their own mods every new update for the rest of their lives, even if they make some money. They’re inevitably going to break. @@Sir_Slimbread
This is just Microsoft and Mojang making more excuses to be even more stingy and lazier. “Oh these features the community has been begging us to add? Just buy this FEATURED mod! It’s the best and remember it’s totally just for helping creators!”
I'm OK with it in principle, but we need quality control. There are already unplayable maps that are broken from updates that still have price tags.
Need to move Printer within 10 blocks
Need to load paper
Need to insert ink
Just be glad didn't have a paper jam
I mean it’s basically DLC material.
you cannot convince me this is okay
bedrock is a disgusting piece of money laundering software, and its time as a community we take a stand against Mojang for these disgusting practices
i prefer paying for a secure good quality trustworthy mod then going to a dodgy website to get free mods which are unofficial and unsafe so im very ok with this besides its optional so your not forced to buy anything just like the marketplace you can play the whole of minecraft without paying anything extra over the games price with all updates being free so i think this is very fair and dosnt need to be ridiculed
not surprised that they'd do this to bedrock
i feel this will only be worth while if java mods come to bedrock
People have already been doing it.
Gravestones, Portals, The Wool Mod(similar to other additional blocks mods), Magical Crops in the form of Elemental Crops, one similar to multiple Mods that add Pipes, Genreators, and automation.
As a console player, I’m really excited about this. However… I do have a big concern and I’m hoping maybe someone can help answer it for me. If I enable add-ons on my world, will it stop that world from updating? I only ask because a while ago I invested a lot of time into building on the Star Wars world, and it wouldn’t update to 1.17. I always assumed the Star Wars addon prevented it from updating, and I have no idea how true that is.
MAYBE, if they make you pay for it, will they make it a requirement to be updated regularly? That might be the only upside to it...
This didn't work out all that well for Bethesda, so I don't have much hope for this.
I was looking for a video about this on the channel and it wasn't out yet
It doesent work on ps5 you will keep blue screening😢
How come you can't share your own mods, worlds, texture packs or skins on Bedrock, especially on consoles, it's apparently a big "security danger", but of course, forcing people to pay for them is okay?
Tbh if money was directly and fully sent to mod creators I would be fully fine with it
I don't completely understand how the bedrock market place works but of creators can make their add ons free, so is it not up to the add ons creator whether they want to sell it or give it away?
sort of, I think mojang doesnt like giving things up for free, because mojang also takes a cut of the sales
If minecraft still unders notch management,all of this chaos never happened , making minecraft account will never be complicated,minecraft updates will be more creatives,we dont need to pay addons and etc, remember when minecraft ban selling anything jn minecraft , well now they do it.
how is this new tho? ive been doing this for years! what did mojang actaully change?
I think they need to get rid of the whole (Can't get achievements because you have a fun little addon in your world, or because your on creative).
What I do is set up a server on my phone that’s modded then join it with my console
As long as they don't make marketplace the only way to get addons, it should be fine. Mod developers had never been able to sell their creations (yes, including under notch), if somebody's good enough to make modding a full-time job, and this allows them to achieve it, then it's a good thing.
There probably will be problems with things getting repetitive, stealing, and so on, but I wouldn't say that's a reason to drop the idea. We can ask if Mojang should be getting a cut of the profits, but it's their marketplace and intellectual property, so idk.
Just please don't argue that independent devs shouldn't be able to make money from making mods, that's about as pro big corporation as you can go.
I think the creators of the mods can choose the pirce similar to roblox
It's already the only way to get not only add ons, but basically everything if you're on console. Even tho console is the most expensive version, it's also the most limited.
I still think it's a problem that it seems like Mojang generally are opposed to free things being posted on the marketplace (i think they only allow it in specific situations), and that you NEED to be an approved "marketplace creator" to post things there instead of them just allowing anyone to do it (despite the fact that it clearly hasn't stopped the marketplace from being filled with low quality content that's just the same thing over and over, like the 100+ among us skin packs)
Definitely understand the issues with paid add ons, but I will selfishly say that these add ons are a game changer for my wife and I. I usually play modded Java, but when we play together, she plays on switch so we play a vanilla bedrock world together. Adding in the free pets and furniture add on revitalized our world.
wait what? I thought bedrock already had paid mods
YUPPP, was waiting for this one. Extremely common Bedrock L
Here's the irony here, Mojang says Mod makers no longer can make money off of their mods, now they're selling mods... What the actual fu-
That's completely different.
Mods are not Add-Ons.
Mods are a Modification to the Game, while Add-Ons are Additions to the Game.
They sound and are pretty much functionally similar, but there is a difference.
Add-On makers will be able to legally sell them and Mojang just gets a percentage.
Mojang does not make the Add-Ons, they just curate them.
unless they say its official contnet, it don't matter.... its always custom made stuff by the community unless mojang says its official and will be polished and made sure will work on any patches.
the fact that they disable achievments its a hint that mojant don't consider then official content, just like the new mods for skyrim disable achievments but the creation club don't and was considered official in the anniversary release, so theres a huge difference, notice how the sofa icons don't match the artstyle of minecraft it feels bad and cheap
this is no different than the stuff already sold there, you don't need then they are not official its just a way to help you modders to get money if you so wish to get a content nothing else.
why do people even care about this? its not like this is mandatory its not official content of the game, its not like a dlc or expansion pack, its just a extra addon by the community.
This is not okay. Remember when Notch made fun of ingame add on purchases with that one april fools day update? Well Jeb has his little hands in the cookie jar and he took all the cookies. Now he is looking for CUPCAKES.
If you know what i mean.
These act more like data packs, not mods
