I've added some extra suggestions so you might want to read this after watching the video. You’re missing the point of minecraft is the most common criticism this video has received, so I thought it'd be worth discussing that now. Here's my slightly updated take. Minecraft is a creative platform. Via multiplayer and creative modes, players are capable of creating their own fun. This is a credit to minecraft’s sandbox, but I cannot critique the game itself when the individual player has the control. That’s up to you, and your mileage may vary. I don't want to limit Minecraft to just survival mode, but that is the base game, that's the game that the devs design. A lot of people have commented saying that they're happy to play survival soley to build cool stuff and that to them is the point of Minecraft. Well, I actually kind of agree. Let me put it this way. The point of minecraft is to use the sandbox to unleash your creativity. So would you not agree it’s important or good for the game to present situations in which your creativity is incited? Would you not therefore agree that the game should mechanically encourage creative solutions. This is what I tried to say with a lot of the video. I think it’s where the game falls short. And if you’re capable of making survival fun and engaging for yourself entirely on your creative urges, that’s great. But wouldn't you agree it should work on its game design so more people could find survival fun and engaging? Here's a few suggestions. We stick with Mojang's conquest progression in survival mode, and add new things, dimensions especially that bring a serious challenge. I like the aether for this. But the portal would be more challenging to build than the Nether portal. We want mechanical incentive to build BUT for that to be optional so purely creative players aren't bothered. We're also going to fix the current imbalances, add some more interesting biomes, and expand the underground. Next, we create a new mode. Survival +. In Survival +, winter is coming. This is a suggestion I got from Lachlan in the comment section. Winter will come in a number of days, and when it does, you will face challenges. Firstly, beds do not work. Farms will die on the outside, food mobs will die. Torches on the outside will burn out. Hordes of mobs will come from the mists, and they will try to break into your house. It's up to your creativity to build something that will defend you from the winter. Again, this is a separate mode form standard survival so everyone is satisfied.
Couldn't agree more, unless someone wants to get into the complexity of redstone, it feels difficult to really go further the build urself up a good farm, a nice house and maybe a few more buildings and then that's kinda it( atleast for the casual player). Many of the bricks in games can be ugly or lack use within a design perspective. Although the game has gotten significantly better with it's block choices especially with the colored wools, colored concrete and various wood types; Also I hate every one of their rug designs :p. But I also feel like a hardcore mode would be good for the people who want a challenge and as a way to slow down their progression. Perhaps an enemy that can spawn in caves even it has torches all over the place, and perhaps even a temperature gauge so u have to keep warm in the cold climates, and you can't sustain yourself with just off 1 food. It could fill your hunger but if u keep eating the same thing you get hungry faster. And for the real hardcore people if you die you lose everything you had on you.
yes and no. While I would appreciate more build focused things (I would love a progression quest of sorts where as you help a village build itself up, you start to unlock the ability to create in game blueprints that both showed you some of those "tutorial" style of buildings, creating an 3d outline to guide you, but also let you create a "blue print" table that allowed you to create your own designs before you even constructed the building. We already have scaffolding and i think this would be the next step.), I understand that forcing said mechanics may put the truly creative off their game. Take GoodTimesWIthScar, one of the most creative minecraft youtubers I know, who created a legitimate chain of hand made volcanic islands in survivle multiplayer, i feel those tools may stifle people like him.
@@tommydude6735 I'm thinking something more like island survival games, where body temp matter, u can get sick, heat stroke, frost bite, some games you need to keep proteins, carbs, and fats up not just eat 1 thing and ur good. A lot of those games have similar concepts to Minecraft but the building isn't as crazy
As long as peaceful is offered by the game, the first night and every subsequent nights "challenge" is not avoided its optional. If everyone uses the easiest option why don't they do this. 10:34, Minecraft doesn't need to become more like Terraria, as the later is a action sandbox game that lets you build, and the former is a building sandbox game that has fighting. Mods exist for both games and let you refine them closer to what you individually want, but the base game don't need to be the same or even all that similar. I would argue that while Terraria encourages conquest, Minecraft encourages exploration. Terraria forces you to upgrade gear through looting and mining, to fight stronger things. Minecraft lets you do whatever you want regardless of the goal. In a way, Minecraft is "the dark souls of" games, in how little it holds your hands, it gives you vast empty world, and a day to get your surroundings before night and through trial and hard work, you develop, you improve, you risk more and gain more, you go to new heights, stopping not at The End, not when the game says you're done, but when you look on the world as the being you've become, and can think "That is all... for now" 12:12, beacons are a momentum to your progress, and large pile of wealth reaching into the sky. On multiplayer they are a sign of status and superiority, and in single player they are a reminder of what you have achieved and have yet to still do. They aren't meant as a easy thing but a challenge to overcome though time and persistence. And instant mine is pretty nice. The underwater monuments don't only offer gold, they offer sponge, and an exclusive block set. End cities offering both flight and an easy way to transport items makes it crucial the longer you play, letting you decide how much loot to gain from how long you want to spend. Mansion probably should have better loot and pyramids be made a bit harder, but they are less massive quest you undertake and more so, just cool things you go and explore when you're out. And all of this "conquest progression" is just one path you can take. Think of it like the main quest in skyrim, yeah it moves everything along, but you only really do it when you need to, and the real mean'n'potatoes is what happens when you step off the main path. 13:45, This is the wrong mindset, Minecraft is more akin to a toy than traditional game, in that its not what the developers tell you you to do, its what YOU want to do. Minecraft is a practically infinite world, you can't expect the devs to fill that all the way up, so your imagination has to fill in the rest, if you can't do that, then unmodded minecraft just isn't for you in the same way text adventures aren't for some people. 15:09, Maybe but their different games. This is really stupid coming from someone in games media, so let me see if I can explain this. The Terraria world is 5120.5 meters long and 1463 meters tall, this is all space in a large world. Space and the surface take up about 27% of the world while the underground through underworld takes up almost 73% of the world. Now lets look at Minecraft with a total unmodded build height of 256 meters, and an insignificant 3,600,000 KILOmeters. As you point out, the underground in Minecraft is 64 meters, or the bottom quarter of the world while there is still just 691,200,000 cubic kilometers of space above ground. Does more space really need to be added down? Also without beacons which which you also seem to to dumbfounded by, any sort of movement underground is slow and a bit random if you follow caves. Now back to Terraria, in which caves are far easier to find and travel through, and that direction of travel is almost always down. Terraria has well developed caves because the general direction of the game is down, this isn't the case with Minecraft, Minecraft you explore out, over the world not beneath it. Mining is a respite from this a way to break up the the rest of the gameplay, a way to relax mindlessly or a small challenge needed to be over come to continue on with what you want to do. 15:30 lightening round: 1, Mojang's structures have never been the best or most interesting, underground ones are simply harder to find than above ground ones. 2/3/4, no argument there, 5, what about players who don't want more environmental hazards and enjoy the game as a more peaceful relaxing game. Also Diamonds aren't the best thing in the game, as enchanted iron can outperform unenchanted diamonds, and potions can be more useful than armor. 17:00, A new mining challenge might be nice, be you are very wrong when you say every challenge is combat related. Building a better base isn't, building bigger structures isn't, making complex redstone isn't, building an economy on a server isn't, exploring to the world boarder isn't, building more optimized farms isn't, spending time trading isn't, simply thriving in your world can be 100% peaceful. 20:20, the bottom line is you don't seem to understand minecraft or mods, mods do far more than you give them credit for in minecraft, just off the top of my head, chisels and bits enhances building, tinkers forger enhances mining fairly similar to what you suggest, and twilight forest adds not only a whole new dimension but also well done"conquest" gameplay. Minecraft isn't terraria, its minecraft. Its a world in which you live, sure you can go to the nether, find a stronghold, go to the end, kill the enderdragon, kill the wither, and then turn off the game. But if you didn't enjoy that that's on you, you didn't take the game to its limits, and you didn't come close to yours, you're not just some "chosen one" your and goddamn god, the world is yours to shape in whatever image you want, go out and claim it. Sorry for the essay, the biggest issue its sounds like to me isn't that minecraft has problems, its that its a game that's just not for you. You sorta hit it on the head at the end, its a creative outlet, not some grand story your living through and it doesn't need to be. Mojang may or may not know what they want to do, but they haven't made a game, they've made a world and if you can see the beauty in that simplicity, you should go back to your more structured games with explosions, it sounds like you'd have more fun.
"Titanium should be as strong as diamond but slow you down." Titanium is specifically known for its low density. Tungsten would make much more sense for this.
Titanium is one of the strongest materials for a given weight, being tied with bone in strength to weight ratios, so yes, Titanium is definitely strong despite not being as dense as steel Also Titanium is extremely dense, just not as dense as heavy metals
@@stuglife5514 Yeah, or maybe depleted uranium I dunno. Isn't AP no longer used though? From what I hear militaries now just use completely solid shot Sabot rounds
Tungsten doesn't have the same ring, and titanium is more iconic. Besides, in a game where one person can carry hundreds of hundreds of tons of gold with no sweat and diamond, a famously not-tough mineral, is the toughest, density accuracy isn't the first thing on the collective mind.
I think they should add to the nether too because it's only purposes right now are to summon the wither boss, get to the end, and get materials for potions.
I still think we need a survival update. Like what was said in the video, there's no real point in trying to actually "survive" rather than conquer things you find.
@@hakenbacker I honestly hope so. I've still been waiting years for seasons to be a thing lol I hope they make good on their promises, they seem to be listening to the community a lot more recently.
Fortress Europa they do. You're not wrong. But I don't feel like a lot of people would be Happy if they got rid of villages? That's probably one of the first ways to go off of rage marketing though.
Note about the Ocean Temple's: The loot isn't the gold blocks. The REAL loot is the Sponge, which gives you an extremely powerfull option of water manipulation.
Gold is barely usefull in anything but sponges are easily one of the best building tools since you can clear a big chunk of water anywhere you want to build or to simply have weird chunk of air underwater
Fair, but I still don't think it's good enough. Sponges might be useful, but that's only if I want to be build something underwater, and there's not much reason to do that for most players.
@@clown454 and...? Again you’re not saying anything that really related to my original comment so I don’t know what kind of conversation you’re attempting to engage in.
"Titanium could be as strong as diamond but slows you down". Despite its foreboding name titanium is actually a strong _lightweight_ metal, maybe titanium armor could be up there with diamond but you would take increased knockback?
@@Whitelight, I feel what really needs to happen is a nerf to iron. You hit the nail on the head, you can easily beat everything minecraft has to offer with mildly enchanted iron gear. Titanium could have iron's old statistics.
honestly, it's not iron thats neads to be nerfed, its chainmail that needs to be buffed. the armor rating is about right in perspective of everything else, but so impossible to obtain that i either never come across it, or by the time i find even a piece of it im wearing gear far better than it. It needs to be significantly easier to obtain (which could easily be done with a crafting recipe, something mojang has for some reason, never done) and maybe have iron take a hit in its spawn rates. the extreme effort to get it with the low payoff in armor rating makes me forget constantly that it even exists because i never consider it as a viable option in a playthrough. its a perfect idea, a balance to the game that already exists, if only it was actually possible to get at low level.
I think the game could also benefit from world generation update. Just look at the mod Biome Bundle, which makes biomes so visually pleasing that they immediately incites creativity, and all without the need of adding new blocks.
I think its because not only emeralds can be found by mining you can easily trade them with villagers in there dopey af trades....24 wheat for an emerald cheers I will just get all that wheat from your little farm there and trade it with you...the vilalger plants more wheat etc etc... diamonds are rareer imho
Emeralds, if you ignore some of the super easy trades with villagers, are rarer than diamonds in the sense that they only spawn in one biome. But in that biome they are reasonably common.
A combat update IS needed, but not urgently. There is no doubt in that. Post 1.8.9, Minecraft PvP became boring and dull, not giving the same adrenaline it used to. Regeneration items are too strong. Damage invulnerability frames are too long. You can get my point.
it should either make you get a new mini dragon pet, be used in a crazy crafting recipe or be vital in making you go to the next dimension. Imagine if you needed the wither star, the ender dragon egg and a bunch of diamonds to create something that takes you to another dimension like the aether
@@luizbiel2317 nah, you have to have something like how beacon works, you put the egg on a small pyramid and wait till it grows, and maybe even be able to tame it with those purple end plants
Ok. Those 520 something days of developpement didn't seem to yield a lot. It's because Mojang was rewritting / restructuring massive chunks of their kinda clumsy code, something very tedious and mostly not noticeable from the end user perspective. This rewrite made the next round of development way faster and more efficient. That's why 1.13 and 1.14 had so much added is so little time.
Well that helps put things into perspective. I'm glad it made things more efficient. But they didn't stop the technical difficulties with 1.13 and 1.14, its super hard for servers and stuff which is really annoying
You know, when a game skyrockets the way Minecraft did, waiting for that long for ANY reason is not okay, and isn't excusable. Certainly not with the money they were making.
I agree. But the more stuff you add to a game / program / app, the more ressources it takes on the hardware side. Especially a game like Minecraft, where everything is in a single tick-loop ran on mostly one single thread. And the hardware manufacturers don't focus on single thread right now. In a sense, Minecraft is a game for the future.
Yeah, but I highly doubt that the first gold you are going to get is in an ocean monument. Even then you don't even need that much gold, so it's overkill for a problem that doesn't exist.
@@gandalfmagzorzy8753 Yes you can use gold for all of those things, but it is more efficient to just mine for gold instead of clearing out an ocean monument. Maybe if there was much much more gold it would be worth it, but mining is just more efficient.
@@Peter-xm3ol True but imo its still worth it for the sponges at least when you plan to do anything with water. Still I didn't bother finding it on any world I played so far so yeah its rather bad reward.
@@tuxedocatsocks8668 the textures look like the ones from those ripoff games that try to be realistic but in doing so fail to capture the charm of the original that made it unique. it's reached the level of self-parody and i hate it
@@IgnobleAmanuensis This is actually a pretty good idea, if you sleep for some consecutive days in a row, phantoms will spawn and prevent you to sleep if you get attacked by them.
insomnia should be insomnia themselves since it is insomnia therefore phantoms should be the result of it therefore they shouldn't keep the player from sleeping.
if. theyve had 10 years and the game still barely has any content. we might have some hope with the nether update but even that is pretty small. end cities are pretty small too. cave update would have to be huge and mojang has a bad track record
@@awesome7732 Well Mojang decided to do the Nether Update first because at the time it was the most trendy update idea from the feedback site. And since the Cave Update had been trendy after the Nether Update we could see it happen.
"it takes 5 minutes for you to reach 12 and start stripping, don't let LionMaker hear you though" That's the most perfect rip on LionMaker I've ever heard
@@arenkai that's an implication you've made yourself. I simply meant there's not a whole lot that they could improve on, so a critique of any form will be difficult and quite brief. The worst the game can get is complaints about its nature by people that don't realise it's just not their cup of tea.
Mojang really need to address how the only cave structures are the almost completely useless and hilariously outdated Mineshafts, the dungeons, piss easy barren rooms that are basically just free xp farms, and the Stonghold, somewhere you take all the books from and then put a nether portal in one room. Give us more subterranean diversity.
@@ExHyperion what about combat and cobalt?... heard thats a posibility... most likely the 1.15 update wont be just some little changes to the combat system... they will definitely add something more...i hope we get improved caves and dungeons...
@@officialprincelouie the overworld being revamped is one of the most important yet underrated things about minecraft's recent changes. The old terrain was so bad and disgusting that I think it was that reason alone I got sick of the game.
This doesn't solve the core problem which is that the creeper is the only mob that can really get inside your dirt house and even then you have to help set it off. They need to encourage us to build castles, forts, traps, these things have all been happening in anarchy pvp servers and yet they're so afraid to add any mob that will piss off a 12 year old.
@@fletcherw32 staying in a dirt hut wouldn't be effective with these changes you still need crops, animals, enchanting room, villagers etc etc With phantoms preventing you from sleeping and mobs swarming you you're going to need a larger safe area
@@libertyprime3827 all of those can still be protected from zombies and all night spawning mobs by simple dirt walls and a shit ton of torches and slabs. Like any project is never really at risk in vanilla minecraft from anything other than creepers and endermen. Everything else will just aggressively hug you, or health tax you, you havent suggested anything that changes what the players build, just made the game harder.
it's worth saying that minecraft's redstone system can be used for automation of gathering resources you need, imo that's what minecraft's real endgame is, optimising gathering of resources so you can manipulate the world into whatever you want it to be
when i first started i wanted nothing to do with it, now i have a giant underground fortress that i've painstakingly decorated and i've automated systems for almost every resource. it's so rewarding to work out how to make an automatic farm or a mob crusher for yourself i love it
MC fans: C'mon you have the resources of Microsoft, you can make the cave update! Mojang: B E E S Terraria fans: The game is fine but a bossbar would be cool. ReLogic: over 800+ new items, new bosses, new armor sets, new weapons, new biomes, more pets, and dolphins. And yes, we're also gonna add the bossbar.
@@TeodorKubena Currently, when you hover the mouse over ANY kind of creature you can see it's health, and it works with bosses. Some people like it this way, but a lot were asking for a boss bar.
Netherite isn't better than diamonds netherite is just a way to upgrade diamonds netherite is so ridiculously rare that the people who think diamonds should be the best won't ever get it
@@awesome_pizza fact of the matter is that, copper in real life is such an interesting metal with so much opprotunity. its a shame they just made it weather and thats the only gimmick copper has (even though iron rusts irl too)
@@dasarath5779 Exactly. Mojang focuses too much on "cool building blocks" and it kind of sucks, uses of both copper and amethyst are so niche that in practice barely anyone uses them. When I played with my gf we decided just not to smelt copper because we won't have a use for it. The past 3 updates or so feel more like "block packs" than actual updates.
(Side note not criticism) The reason why 1.9 specifically took so long, was because during that time Mojang was being bought by Microsoft. Just 1.9 though.
@@mountoakbaranovskii4545 No, they were in the process of being bought, but at that point had finished making the bountiful update. The development of 1.9 however was at the same time as the transfer, so they weren't able to spend much time on it, ergo it took a while.
Yeah I play Minecraft for primarily building. I play survival because having to create efficient ways to gather materials is more satsyfiyng then pulling it out of thin air in creative. I should mod it one day though
Personally i find enjoyment in building automatization, and industrializing the world by my own hands, it gives amazing long lasting rewards and theres enough ways to build machinery and farms that it can keep you entertained for a long time. Though the best part of it all, is when you get close to godly powers and decide to rage war on your friends with carpet bombing "planes" and other insane shit
There is one mistake, people make when talking about this topic. They want to tell what 'kind of a game' Minecraft is. You say, it's survival. Others say mining, exploration, sandbox, building, fighting and so on... The truth is - it's all of them. And this is what makes it so hard to develop for. By changing a single element of the game (you always do, even by adding content) you change all its aspects - and this is why there will always be players complaining about the updates. More cosmetic blocks? Nah, I'd like a new sword. New structures? I don't care. I want bluestone. And so on... Yes, especially in the takeover phase by Microsoft, Minecraft has been lagging updates but for the past 2 years, it became better. Every major update since then has be declared the new 'best'. Although I personally agree with you and Minecraft lacks survival elements a LOT, we can't just go and say that this is what Minecraft needs to become 'great again'. It's time and a lot of careful work, Mojang ist definitely willing to do. The nether update (1.16.) with the introduction of netherite show the braveness of 'killing' some top merchandise for game quality. I really welcome this decision and hope for the best. If you have read so far, you seem interested in the topic and probably have an interesting standpoint. Tell me about it :D Constructive criticism is very welcome!
Yeah I recently come back to the game after some very disappointing updates mojang made under Microsoft (1.10 and 1.12) and I was extremely overwhelmed by the amount of content that was in the game, new swim mechanics, bubble columns, new villager mechanics and especially the new nether but unlike the other updates I mentioned above I was actually impressed it was like learning minecraft all over again. These new updates have filled my heart with hope that mojang is paying attention to the stuff that they should be paying attention to, the work maybe slow but they are definitely in the right direction. Especially with the introduction of netherite. I have seen a lot of hate from older audience that netherite is not minecrafty but this really shows that mojang is confident enough that they are ready to take some major steps towards their game because there's a reason why game studios mostly never changes their core gameplay elements unless they have a very good reason to do so.
I agree with this. I am someone who loves the exploration and adventure aspect of Minecraft. Getting better gear, hunting down bosses, new dimensions. I live for that stuff However I am not everyone. I know people who like taking their time. Building, making farms, redstone machines, etc. While I do enjoy that stuff as well, it's not what I enjoy about the game Minecraft is one of the biggest games on the planet. It set the world in fire for a decade. It got this way because Minecraft is not for you or me, but everyone I hope I didn't ramble on too much. I'd love a new update that expands the game with new structures, weapons, and a dimension, but each update should have something that adds things to expand what people enjoy
What people don't know, is that yes, it has a lot of possibilities but notch didn't even wanted to had survival to the game. It was a good a idea but keep the technicalities of the game in and add all of those things is hard for Mojang.
they always forget that theres more to minecraft then just survival. servers are a thing, and in my opinion, are many times more entertaining then survival
I remember first seeing minecraft and thinking to myself: this looks so bad, it'll never take off. 2 months later I actually gave it a try and boy was I both wrong and hooked.
i remember telling everyone at school about this cool new game called minecraft and everyone thought i was insane because i never met a single person that year that had ever heard of it before
Bro, me and my sis watched every single lionmaker video, thought he was a nice guy, until he left, then got exposed for being a pedophile. Sad times, but i hate lionmaker now 😠
Yeah but finding diamonds never gets old. You can find 1,000,000 diamonds and the next diamond you find will give the same joy as finding the first diamond
Since you can put mending on everything including pickaxes, I don't really search for diamonds anymore. I have a few stacks of diamond blocks on my singleplayer world. Same for Iron farms.
Not a strong enemy/harder to kil boss, what we need is a boss or mob that requires you to use your brain instead of spaming sword like we've got right now but they need to improve the fight mechanics or add new weapons before they add new enemies, it's just dumb right now.
What it boils down to is that minecraft needs the massive cave update overhaul that fans have been asking since the last couple of years. The low depth is also an issue i can't understand them not fixing, we've had the cubic chunks mod since a long time ago where the wolrdgen depth is expanded to infinity.
The world's thickness does seem rather thin. It should be much deeper....maybe add in atmospheric pressure too and the further down you go the more you need to use vehicles to protect yourself. I dunno, something at least.
I am really glad to see minecraft working exactly on the issues mentioned here. First the nether and netherite that took "rarest material" crown from diamond and now we're getting the caves and cliffs updates with more depth and more danger.
I think Mojang is mostly focus on new and youngers player and that may kill their fame and ruin their career because they don’t make any offer to keep their existed players..
@@bubblepopgrm 1 your name is cool 2 i dont think this is wrong but not right too (i think this has a great change of being true too) so i dont know if it is what you are saying or not 3 i dont care about cave update for me this is bullshit
Cauã GamerTS it’s an opinion so u don’t have to agree but think about it... since Microsoft bought Minecraft they started advertising Minecraft more and they added the recipes book on the crafting table it’s so obvious that they are trying to get new players to the game.. i was so shook when i went back and played the game after years (after microsoft bought the game) and the new update is kinda weird (yes they are fun and add new things) but still feels like they made it for kids to play minecraft
Not being a building enthusiast myself, my first day of Minecraft always resembled: find the nearest natural cave opening to spawn, put a torch in it, block the entrance, tada I'm home now, start caving. I pretty much never used beds in the first place and "survival" wasn't ever really a challenge outside of marathon caving runs. I have to admit most of this video sounded kinda...comical, in that respect. Sure, people built extravagantly defended fortress homes! ...that they didn't need. There was nothing in the game that required those defenses to defend against. You could literally put a fence around your house, put torches inside the fence, and you're done, you've defended your house. Anything past that isn't a survival defense mechanism; it's just style points for people who enjoy building those kinds of defenses. Which you can still do now, and is still just as unnecessary as it was then.
um....their are mods which wildy expand the game on pc....see "feed the beast" and "technic"..these programs will literally install all the mods you need for a particular mod pack you want to play......
They actually do that on hard mode on halloween and in game full moons, mobs get tougher and have a higher chance to spawn with armor or a potions effect its subtle but there
@@yeawhatever1495 there used to be a better golden apple called an enchanted golden apple. It was amazingly strong, but you needed to use gold blocks to craft it instead of ingots.
1) Improve the mining experience/depth 2) Make survival more difficult/complex 3) Encourage exploration 4) Enrich the environment and make the game feel more alive
Highly recommend anyone and everyone tries the oldest and most relevant mod for minecraft: Better Than Wolves. Literally EVERYTHING Whitelight touched on regarding lack of direction, meaning and goals (and difficulty) is totally and utterly fixed with this mod. The author is still working on it nearly a decade later and if I recall correctly, he's actually an ex-video game industry professional.
AlsusGaming is it though. It's quite beautiful in a way. I will know the last things I do. ( if I actually committed suicide) I would know he last time I saw my parents, the last time I pet my dog, the last glass of water that enters my system, the last song I listen to. I'll know more of it than a lot of other people. I don't actually plan to commit suicide. But in a way in a cruel world that's ending soon, it's becoming more of an option.
Beware redstone and automated farms(both are Vanilla)... you'll never climb out of those holes, and he didn't even bring it up but as some sort of joke/segue... shrug. The technical aspects of Minecraft make it amazing! Bringing up the next generation of engineers.
Do the no sheep challenge, then you can't sleep, because beds make it way too easy. Honestly they should make it so that mobs can wake you up if they can get to your bed.
@@Photosounder that's actually how it used to be before 1.0. it was a great compromise because it forced you to make sure your bed was somewhere safe, where a mob couldn't spawn or get to you
@@ryyyyyylie Ah that's what I thought I remembered but wasn't sure. They should bring that back, there's really no reason for the current bed behaviour, it's absurd.
Just play on hard. And if that's still not enough, I'm sure you can find a way to make it harder (no enchants, no diamond armor, no food life regen - only potions and gold apples, and so on).
Excellent job! I love how you gave reasonable criticism without patronizing the game in any way. You pointed out it’s flaws and gave ways to improve them instead of complaining about them. Just a great video and thank you for shedding light on this!
honestly emeralds are not hard to get because of villagers, and even in mining there's not much point in going for them, as they're only used for trading (and technically beacons, if you really want to go that painful, grindy, horrid extra mile just to have an emerald block beacon pyramid.)
I remember I attempted to do the doors strategy and it didn't work for me I must be using a different edition of minecraft where they got rid of that feature
I really get your point, even tho I think you want Minecraft to get actually hard. It isn't the oversimplified game anymore. further things as deeper caves etc. makes it fairly more difficult so that would be neat.
Not for longer than ~5 hours. As programmer, I thought about making some try-hard Minecraft (have even finished voxel lighting system much better than mc has (video in channel) and no theese are not shaders! this is much more), but I play too much LoL xD
@@mastermati773 wanted more harsh critique? well, your voxel thingy, well it looks like one of those minecraft maps from left for dead 2 (a.k.a bad) or some sort of unity engine ripoff like there are thousands nowadays.
@Mach-a-velosity of course, but in terraria progression plays a more central role and the core game is fairly linear though with some optional order and boss skips for advanced players, then it also has some sandbox elements, but much is locked behind the normal progression of the game. Minecraft doesn't have linear progression like that and you can shoot straight towards any goal you choose, so it's primarily a sandbox type game. I think we're talking about different kinds of progression :) Terraria is full of walls, primarily bosses, that you must defeat to unlock content that is mandatory for nearly any goal you have in mind. In minecraft you can start your projects in almost any order without such obstacles.
The way I like to think of it: Minecraft used to be about what the player could bring to the game, but now it's about what the game can give to the player
@@DyoKasparov actually the devs said that they watch alot of minecraft videos/streams etc wich are about updating the game. you can search it up on twitter I think kingbdogz tweeted about it
main reason why minecraft updates so slow is due to its community. full of children and ppl with autism. children usually don't ask for many things and they don't think critically about things.
To be fare, you cant fight that op dragon without draco armor, its impossible, I had to launch a ton of nukes and block holes at it to retrieve my stuff because I didnt know it's strength
I come back to Minecraft because a single player and multiplayer experience are not one in the same. To play Minecraft with a bunch of people and we somehow set up countries, laws, etc. It’s a comment on how humans want structure and such
@@MilkIsTheOne after the full Caves & Cliffs update (1.18) releases, this video will basically be outdated.... He would NEED to make a new critique... let’s blow up his comment section when the time comes, because I want to see what he thinks about the warden and DIAMONDS BEING TOPPED??!!
I think the problem with his arguments are that they are based off of untrue statements. From the beginning of survival, torches were the best fortification of homes; I don’t think anyone with a brain would place lava traps around their house for defense.
And Minecraft isn’t becoming like Terraria. Minecraft hasn’t added a single boss since 2012. It hasn’t added new ores since 2012 either. Minecraft has added new blocks and mechanics that benefit building. Terraria punishes you for building with its corruption/hallow, bosses, and pointlessness of using your resources on objects you can’t interact with.
If you’re playing Minecraft like Terraria, you’re going to get bored. Minecraft is a game about gathering resources to build whatever you want for the sake of accomplishment, not because the game pushes you to.
It’s so weird that he says diamonds always have to be the rarest and at the time that seemed so true and yet here we are. I wonder what other core ideas we have that Mojang might turn on our heads
The reason it took so long to develop a lot of updates is because of how poorly they coded the game. Notch basically bodged the game together thinking it wouldn't be popular. Every time they added something new after that required them to restructure the game some amount. Rebuilding the game takes time.
Samurai Pipotchi and to add on to this, this is why 1.13 was such a big update, braking all mods (more than usual) and making 1.12.2 the new 1.7.10 of mods, as in where many mods stop getting updates. 1.13 is a complete rewrite of code, which is how Mojang is now able to make one update or more a year, with more advanced features than before.
@randomguy8196 I think that must be the eventual goal? It's gotta be hard for them to maintain two different versions and try to keep them more or less the same for years so that they can one day be merged????? Yikes! But Bedrock needs to have everything the PC version does before it will be accepted though. It must be a nightmare for the programmers. I wonder if Microsoft regrets buying it, lol?
>Thinks of Aether mod "Lets take a loot at the Aether mod" Literally the first mod I ever played. Those experiences are in the same vein as the first time I played Minecraft. That mod is SO good.
This just made me think about how when they updated the crafting system and it made me reflect on all the memories I have of looking up and memorizing crafting recipes. That was a huge part of my experience with the game
A lot don't like the recipe book being there to help you. Which is fair enough. It might just sound redundant as back in the day you could just use the wiki instead. But the recipe book does something the wiki never really did: Tell you what you could craft with what you had. There's plenty you could've just ignored cause you didn't know it existed. Which is a good thing. It encouraged you to actually look for the stuff. Hell, your friend might've excitedly told you that you could craft banners because he threw some wool and sticks into the crafting table. There's a brand new discovery... in a game about discovering things and amassing wealth and mastery over the world.
this whole critic, two years later, when the new cave update is around the corner and now the warden will be added in the next one is getting everyone excited, its like everything is coming together again kkk
The Aether - sky dimension that expands on every aspect of the game Biome Height Tweaker - Restores big old caves Underground Biomes - more diverse stone types Quark - biome-specific caves Better Underground - cave decorations Subterranean Waters - underground lakes and rivers Dungeon Tactics - THE combat/weapons mod, also adds useful new ores Epic Siege Mod - better AI encourages survival building The Beneath - hazardous mining dimension Primitive Mobs - loads of new mobs in the vanilla style Ruins - THE dungeon/structure mod
They could totally use the beacon as a portal to a sky dimension of something. The beacon is very hard to get and it doesn't do much, but it could. Just walk into the beam and get "beamed" up into the sky, or to another dimension.
15:58 That actually looks really cool. I would totally want to see that as a quite rare thing, but of course, it should contain a lot of valuables. I would absolutely love that.
Off topic but just trying to get my thoughts seen but the beacon and the heart of the sea need a serious buff they are fucking useless and the wither on hard mode is BULLSHIT AND NOT WORTH ANY OF YOUR TIME , try to solo it without 8 people it's not fun..
Starkiller 6 to the 9 gaming beacons are perfectly fine and conduits are literally meant to just be used to live underwater so I don’t see how that needs a buff.
I've added some extra suggestions so you might want to read this after watching the video. You’re missing the point of minecraft is the most common criticism this video has received, so I thought it'd be worth discussing that now. Here's my slightly updated take.
Minecraft is a creative platform. Via multiplayer and creative modes, players are capable of creating their own fun. This is a credit to minecraft’s sandbox, but I cannot critique the game itself when the individual player has the control. That’s up to you, and your mileage may vary.
I don't want to limit Minecraft to just survival mode, but that is the base game, that's the game that the devs design.
A lot of people have commented saying that they're happy to play survival soley to build cool stuff and that to them is the point of Minecraft. Well, I actually kind of agree. Let me put it this way. The point of minecraft is to use the sandbox to unleash your creativity. So would you not agree it’s important or good for the game to present situations in which your creativity is incited? Would you not therefore agree that the game should mechanically encourage creative solutions. This is what I tried to say with a lot of the video. I think it’s where the game falls short. And if you’re capable of making survival fun and engaging for yourself entirely on your creative urges, that’s great. But wouldn't you agree it should work on its game design so more people could find survival fun and engaging?
Here's a few suggestions. We stick with Mojang's conquest progression in survival mode, and add new things, dimensions especially that bring a serious challenge. I like the aether for this. But the portal would be more challenging to build than the Nether portal. We want mechanical incentive to build BUT for that to be optional so purely creative players aren't bothered. We're also going to fix the current imbalances, add some more interesting biomes, and expand the underground.
Next, we create a new mode. Survival +. In Survival +, winter is coming. This is a suggestion I got from Lachlan in the comment section. Winter will come in a number of days, and when it does, you will face challenges. Firstly, beds do not work. Farms will die on the outside, food mobs will die. Torches on the outside will burn out. Hordes of mobs will come from the mists, and they will try to break into your house. It's up to your creativity to build something that will defend you from the winter. Again, this is a separate mode form standard survival so everyone is satisfied.
Couldn't agree more, unless someone wants to get into the complexity of redstone, it feels difficult to really go further the build urself up a good farm, a nice house and maybe a few more buildings and then that's kinda it( atleast for the casual player). Many of the bricks in games can be ugly or lack use within a design perspective. Although the game has gotten significantly better with it's block choices especially with the colored wools, colored concrete and various wood types; Also I hate every one of their rug designs :p. But I also feel like a hardcore mode would be good for the people who want a challenge and as a way to slow down their progression. Perhaps an enemy that can spawn in caves even it has torches all over the place, and perhaps even a temperature gauge so u have to keep warm in the cold climates, and you can't sustain yourself with just off 1 food. It could fill your hunger but if u keep eating the same thing you get hungry faster. And for the real hardcore people if you die you lose everything you had on you.
@@superbelo You mean.... like hardcore mode that already exists where if you die you lose the world basically? 1 life, 1 chance.
yes and no. While I would appreciate more build focused things (I would love a progression quest of sorts where as you help a village build itself up, you start to unlock the ability to create in game blueprints that both showed you some of those "tutorial" style of buildings, creating an 3d outline to guide you, but also let you create a "blue print" table that allowed you to create your own designs before you even constructed the building. We already have scaffolding and i think this would be the next step.), I understand that forcing said mechanics may put the truly creative off their game. Take GoodTimesWIthScar, one of the most creative minecraft youtubers I know, who created a legitimate chain of hand made volcanic islands in survivle multiplayer, i feel those tools may stifle people like him.
@@tommydude6735 I'm thinking something more like island survival games, where body temp matter, u can get sick, heat stroke, frost bite, some games you need to keep proteins, carbs, and fats up not just eat 1 thing and ur good. A lot of those games have similar concepts to Minecraft but the building isn't as crazy
As long as peaceful is offered by the game, the first night and every subsequent nights "challenge" is not avoided its optional. If everyone uses the easiest option why don't they do this. 10:34, Minecraft doesn't need to become more like Terraria, as the later is a action sandbox game that lets you build, and the former is a building sandbox game that has fighting. Mods exist for both games and let you refine them closer to what you individually want, but the base game don't need to be the same or even all that similar. I would argue that while Terraria encourages conquest, Minecraft encourages exploration. Terraria forces you to upgrade gear through looting and mining, to fight stronger things. Minecraft lets you do whatever you want regardless of the goal.
In a way, Minecraft is "the dark souls of" games, in how little it holds your hands, it gives you vast empty world, and a day to get your surroundings before night and through trial and hard work, you develop, you improve, you risk more and gain more, you go to new heights, stopping not at The End, not when the game says you're done, but when you look on the world as the being you've become, and can think "That is all... for now"
12:12, beacons are a momentum to your progress, and large pile of wealth reaching into the sky. On multiplayer they are a sign of status and superiority, and in single player they are a reminder of what you have achieved and have yet to still do. They aren't meant as a easy thing but a challenge to overcome though time and persistence. And instant mine is pretty nice.
The underwater monuments don't only offer gold, they offer sponge, and an exclusive block set. End cities offering both flight and an easy way to transport items makes it crucial the longer you play, letting you decide how much loot to gain from how long you want to spend. Mansion probably should have better loot and pyramids be made a bit harder, but they are less massive quest you undertake and more so, just cool things you go and explore when you're out. And all of this "conquest progression" is just one path you can take. Think of it like the main quest in skyrim, yeah it moves everything along, but you only really do it when you need to, and the real mean'n'potatoes is what happens when you step off the main path.
13:45, This is the wrong mindset, Minecraft is more akin to a toy than traditional game, in that its not what the developers tell you you to do, its what YOU want to do. Minecraft is a practically infinite world, you can't expect the devs to fill that all the way up, so your imagination has to fill in the rest, if you can't do that, then unmodded minecraft just isn't for you in the same way text adventures aren't for some people.
15:09, Maybe but their different games. This is really stupid coming from someone in games media, so let me see if I can explain this. The Terraria world is 5120.5 meters long and 1463 meters tall, this is all space in a large world. Space and the surface take up about 27% of the world while the underground through underworld takes up almost 73% of the world. Now lets look at Minecraft with a total unmodded build height of 256 meters, and an insignificant 3,600,000 KILOmeters. As you point out, the underground in Minecraft is 64 meters, or the bottom quarter of the world while there is still just 691,200,000 cubic kilometers of space above ground. Does more space really need to be added down? Also without beacons which which you also seem to to dumbfounded by, any sort of movement underground is slow and a bit random if you follow caves. Now back to Terraria, in which caves are far easier to find and travel through, and that direction of travel is almost always down. Terraria has well developed caves because the general direction of the game is down, this isn't the case with Minecraft, Minecraft you explore out, over the world not beneath it. Mining is a respite from this a way to break up the the rest of the gameplay, a way to relax mindlessly or a small challenge needed to be over come to continue on with what you want to do.
15:30 lightening round: 1, Mojang's structures have never been the best or most interesting, underground ones are simply harder to find than above ground ones. 2/3/4, no argument there, 5, what about players who don't want more environmental hazards and enjoy the game as a more peaceful relaxing game. Also Diamonds aren't the best thing in the game, as enchanted iron can outperform unenchanted diamonds, and potions can be more useful than armor.
17:00, A new mining challenge might be nice, be you are very wrong when you say every challenge is combat related. Building a better base isn't, building bigger structures isn't, making complex redstone isn't, building an economy on a server isn't, exploring to the world boarder isn't, building more optimized farms isn't, spending time trading isn't, simply thriving in your world can be 100% peaceful.
20:20, the bottom line is you don't seem to understand minecraft or mods, mods do far more than you give them credit for in minecraft, just off the top of my head, chisels and bits enhances building, tinkers forger enhances mining fairly similar to what you suggest, and twilight forest adds not only a whole new dimension but also well done"conquest" gameplay. Minecraft isn't terraria, its minecraft. Its a world in which you live, sure you can go to the nether, find a stronghold, go to the end, kill the enderdragon, kill the wither, and then turn off the game. But if you didn't enjoy that that's on you, you didn't take the game to its limits, and you didn't come close to yours, you're not just some "chosen one" your and goddamn god, the world is yours to shape in whatever image you want, go out and claim it.
Sorry for the essay, the biggest issue its sounds like to me isn't that minecraft has problems, its that its a game that's just not for you. You sorta hit it on the head at the end, its a creative outlet, not some grand story your living through and it doesn't need to be. Mojang may or may not know what they want to do, but they haven't made a game, they've made a world and if you can see the beauty in that simplicity, you should go back to your more structured games with explosions, it sounds like you'd have more fun.

"Titanium should be as strong as diamond but slow you down." Titanium is specifically known for its low density. Tungsten would make much more sense for this.

Note about the Ocean Temple's:
The loot isn't the gold blocks. The REAL loot is the Sponge, which gives you an extremely powerfull option of water manipulation.
Gold is barely usefull in anything but sponges are easily one of the best building tools since you can clear a big chunk of water anywhere you want to build or to simply have weird chunk of air underwater
Fair, but I still don't think it's good enough. Sponges might be useful, but that's only if I want to be build something underwater, and there's not much reason to do that for most players.

"Titanium could be as strong as diamond but slows you down".
Despite its foreboding name titanium is actually a strong _lightweight_ metal, maybe titanium armor could be up there with diamond but you would take increased knockback?
The disadvantage on that isn't harsh enough. Good idea though. Perhaps a concussive effect when hit to balance the protective quality?
@@Whitelight, I feel what really needs to happen is a nerf to iron. You hit the nail on the head, you can easily beat everything minecraft has to offer with mildly enchanted iron gear. Titanium could have iron's old statistics.
honestly, it's not iron thats neads to be nerfed, its chainmail that needs to be buffed. the armor rating is about right in perspective of everything else, but so impossible to obtain that i either never come across it, or by the time i find even a piece of it im wearing gear far better than it. It needs to be significantly easier to obtain (which could easily be done with a crafting recipe, something mojang has for some reason, never done) and maybe have iron take a hit in its spawn rates. the extreme effort to get it with the low payoff in armor rating makes me forget constantly that it even exists because i never consider it as a viable option in a playthrough. its a perfect idea, a balance to the game that already exists, if only it was actually possible to get at low level.

Emeralds, if you ignore some of the super easy trades with villagers, are rarer than diamonds in the sense that they only spawn in one biome. But in that biome they are reasonably common.
emeralds are still useless except for trading and maybe making a beacon, and a majority of players dont even trade in the first place

Ok. Those 520 something days of developpement didn't seem to yield a lot. It's because Mojang was rewritting / restructuring massive chunks of their kinda clumsy code, something very tedious and mostly not noticeable from the end user perspective. This rewrite made the next round of development way faster and more efficient. That's why 1.13 and 1.14 had so much added is so little time.
Well that helps put things into perspective. I'm glad it made things more efficient. But they didn't stop the technical difficulties with 1.13 and 1.14, its super hard for servers and stuff which is really annoying
You know, when a game skyrockets the way Minecraft did, waiting for that long for ANY reason is not okay, and isn't excusable. Certainly not with the money they were making.
Mátyás Fodor yeah it is...? Most games make you pay for updates, I don’t blame mojang for taking a long time
I agree. But the more stuff you add to a game / program / app, the more ressources it takes on the hardware side. Especially a game like Minecraft, where everything is in a single tick-loop ran on mostly one single thread. And the hardware manufacturers don't focus on single thread right now.

I'm confused by this statement.
A critique isn't necessariy negative.
@@arenkai that's an implication you've made yourself. I simply meant there's not a whole lot that they could improve on, so a critique of any form will be difficult and quite brief. The worst the game can get is complaints about its nature by people that don't realise it's just not their cup of tea.
Mojang really need to address how the only cave structures are the almost completely useless and hilariously outdated Mineshafts, the dungeons, piss easy barren rooms that are basically just free xp farms, and the Stonghold, somewhere you take all the books from and then put a nether portal in one room.
Give us more subterranean diversity.

Personally i find enjoyment in building automatization, and industrializing the world by my own hands, it gives amazing long lasting rewards and theres enough ways to build machinery and farms that it can keep you entertained for a long time. Though the best part of it all, is when you get close to godly powers and decide to rage war on your friends with carpet bombing "planes" and other insane shit
@Johnithinuioian is there perhaps a demo of the game, i can try out?
There is one mistake, people make when talking about this topic. They want to tell what 'kind of a game' Minecraft is. You say, it's survival. Others say mining, exploration, sandbox, building, fighting and so on...
The truth is - it's all of them. And this is what makes it so hard to develop for. By changing a single element of the game (you always do, even by adding content) you change all its aspects - and this is why there will always be players complaining about the updates.
More cosmetic blocks? Nah, I'd like a new sword. New structures? I don't care. I want bluestone. And so on...
Yes, especially in the takeover phase by Microsoft, Minecraft has been lagging updates but for the past 2 years, it became better. Every major update since then has be declared the new 'best'.
Although I personally agree with you and Minecraft lacks survival elements a LOT, we can't just go and say that this is what Minecraft needs to become 'great again'. It's time and a lot of careful work, Mojang ist definitely willing to do.
The nether update (1.16.) with the introduction of netherite show the braveness of 'killing' some top merchandise for game quality. I really welcome this decision and hope for the best.
If you have read so far, you seem interested in the topic and probably have an interesting standpoint. Tell me about it :D
Constructive criticism is very welcome!
Yeah I recently come back to the game after some very disappointing updates mojang made under Microsoft (1.10 and 1.12) and I was extremely overwhelmed by the amount of content that was in the game, new swim mechanics, bubble columns, new villager mechanics and especially the new nether but unlike the other updates I mentioned above I was actually impressed it was like learning minecraft all over again. These new updates have filled my heart with hope that mojang is paying attention to the stuff that they should be paying attention to, the work maybe slow but they are definitely in the right direction.
Especially with the introduction of netherite. I have seen a lot of hate from older audience that netherite is not minecrafty but this really shows that mojang is confident enough that they are ready to take some major steps towards their game because there's a reason why game studios mostly never changes their core gameplay elements unless they have a very good reason to do so.
I agree with this. I am someone who loves the exploration and adventure aspect of Minecraft. Getting better gear, hunting down bosses, new dimensions. I live for that stuff
However I am not everyone. I know people who like taking their time. Building, making farms, redstone machines, etc. While I do enjoy that stuff as well, it's not what I enjoy about the game
Minecraft is one of the biggest games on the planet. It set the world in fire for a decade. It got this way because Minecraft is not for you or me, but everyone
I hope I didn't ramble on too much. I'd love a new update that expands the game with new structures, weapons, and a dimension, but each update should have something that adds things to expand what people enjoy
What people don't know, is that yes, it has a lot of possibilities but notch didn't even wanted to had survival to the game. It was a good a idea but keep the technicalities of the game in and add all of those things is hard for Mojang.
they always forget that theres more to minecraft then just survival. servers are a thing, and in my opinion, are many times more entertaining then survival
He didnt say its survival. He said it can be used creatively as well.

What it boils down to is that minecraft needs the massive cave update overhaul that fans have been asking since the last couple of years. The low depth is also an issue i can't understand them not fixing, we've had the cubic chunks mod since a long time ago where the wolrdgen depth is expanded to infinity.
The world's thickness does seem rather thin. It should be much deeper....maybe add in atmospheric pressure too and the further down you go the more you need to use vehicles to protect yourself. I dunno, something at least.
@@Xegethra great addition, they could add some form of ore that could be used in crafting breathing apparatuses for deep caves.
cubic chunks would be a necessary change if they wanted to have the nether underground and a heaven like biome, otherwise it would be extremely laggy
I am really glad to see minecraft working exactly on the issues mentioned here. First the nether and netherite that took "rarest material" crown from diamond and now we're getting the caves and cliffs updates with more depth and more danger.

To be fair, in the old versions of minecraft you could just dig a hole, jump in and then cover it up the first night
Exactly you would have to wait in the hole for the whole night
You could probably still do this
But then you'd have nothing to do for five minutes, and anyone with a brain would spend those five minutes mining instead, as the devs want you to.
Not being a building enthusiast myself, my first day of Minecraft always resembled: find the nearest natural cave opening to spawn, put a torch in it, block the entrance, tada I'm home now, start caving.
I pretty much never used beds in the first place and "survival" wasn't ever really a challenge outside of marathon caving runs. I have to admit most of this video sounded kinda...comical, in that respect. Sure, people built extravagantly defended fortress homes! ...that they didn't need. There was nothing in the game that required those defenses to defend against. You could literally put a fence around your house, put torches inside the fence, and you're done, you've defended your house. Anything past that isn't a survival defense mechanism; it's just style points for people who enjoy building those kinds of defenses. Which you can still do now, and is still just as unnecessary as it was then.
But that's the point of new things.

Terraria is a progression game with sandbox elements, Minecraft is a sandbox game with progression elements.
@Mach-a-velosity of course, but in terraria progression plays a more central role and the core game is fairly linear though with some optional order and boss skips for advanced players, then it also has some sandbox elements, but much is locked behind the normal progression of the game. Minecraft doesn't have linear progression like that and you can shoot straight towards any goal you choose, so it's primarily a sandbox type game.
I think we're talking about different kinds of progression :) Terraria is full of walls, primarily bosses, that you must defeat to unlock content that is mandatory for nearly any goal you have in mind. In minecraft you can start your projects in almost any order without such obstacles.

"We dont need anything stronger than diamond armor"
*slowly hides draconian armor under his carpet*
oups, sorry, i accidentally poured water..oh hey whats this
To be fare, you cant fight that op dragon without draco armor, its impossible, I had to launch a ton of nukes and block holes at it to retrieve my stuff because I didnt know it's strength
that probably would fit better in terraria
Emeralds??

10:48 and half of the clips in the video: Is in creative mode
While I’ve gotten bored occasionally, I’ve been playing for 8 years, and the game has never gotten old to me
Thata because every world is infinite and different
Areul Sois actually there is a world border
bedrock world are infinte and java worlds and ps4 worlds have world borders
@@yaacy Even pc worlds have world borders at like 12 million blocks or something... I can't remember lol
I come back to Minecraft because a single player and multiplayer experience are not one in the same. To play Minecraft with a bunch of people and we somehow set up countries, laws, etc. It’s a comment on how humans want structure and such
I'd love to hear his input after The Caves and Cliffs Update
Still no reaction..
@@MilkIsTheOne after the full Caves & Cliffs update (1.18) releases, this video will basically be outdated.... He would NEED to make a new critique... let’s blow up his comment section when the time comes, because I want to see what he thinks about the warden and DIAMONDS BEING TOPPED??!!
@@officialprincelouie yeah the caves and cliffs update sucked and basically added jack lol
okay he made a new video guys
@@MiskyWisky Yeah I saw Hun, thanks for the update tho ❤️
I thought I was going to come here and be triggered and disagree with everything. But instead, here I am... agreeing with you on every point.
Ian Murdoch same here tbh
except the fact that he is criticising the guys that develop Minecraft, not Minecraft itself
I think the problem with his arguments are that they are based off of untrue statements. From the beginning of survival, torches were the best fortification of homes; I don’t think anyone with a brain would place lava traps around their house for defense.
And Minecraft isn’t becoming like Terraria. Minecraft hasn’t added a single boss since 2012. It hasn’t added new ores since 2012 either. Minecraft has added new blocks and mechanics that benefit building. Terraria punishes you for building with its corruption/hallow, bosses, and pointlessness of using your resources on objects you can’t interact with.
If you’re playing Minecraft like Terraria, you’re going to get bored. Minecraft is a game about gathering resources to build whatever you want for the sake of accomplishment, not because the game pushes you to.
How to survive in Minecraft:
Step 1: dig a hole
First night goals tbh
Ry Guy you can’t starve to death on normal
Diggy diggy hole
@Ry Guy you barely lose hunger when you stand still doing nothing
But don’t dig too deep a hole. Remember the First Rule.
Been waiting for vertical slabs since 2013
*Edit:* Woah, I didn't realize how many others thought this was a good idea.
ive been waiting for slab mixng :/
also sideways stairs
Lofty Smalls try trapdoors
walls
I’m fairly certain they’ve said they aren’t gonna do that at some point
It’s so weird that he says diamonds always have to be the rarest and at the time that seemed so true and yet here we are. I wonder what other core ideas we have that Mojang might turn on our heads
God, i still cant believe you summarized EXACTLY what ive been thinking. The cave update... god that sound so good
The reason it took so long to develop a lot of updates is because of how poorly they coded the game.
Notch basically bodged the game together thinking it wouldn't be popular.
Every time they added something new after that required them to restructure the game some amount. Rebuilding the game takes time.
Samurai Pipotchi and to add on to this, this is why 1.13 was such a big update, braking all mods (more than usual) and making 1.12.2 the new 1.7.10 of mods, as in where many mods stop getting updates. 1.13 is a complete rewrite of code, which is how Mojang is now able to make one update or more a year, with more advanced features than before.
@randomguy8196 I think that must be the eventual goal? It's gotta be hard for them to maintain two different versions and try to keep them more or less the same for years so that they can one day be merged????? Yikes! But Bedrock needs to have everything the PC version does before it will be accepted though. It must be a nightmare for the programmers. I wonder if Microsoft regrets buying it, lol?
@@stevnated fuck no, they literally made million
@randomguy8196 What is the purpose of anti aliasing in a game of cubes
@randomguy8196 ah ok 👍
this is REAL critique.
perfectly balanced, as all things should be.
you fuccking 9 year old
what is perfectly vbalanced
I like how Mojang has followed the advice in this video but did it in the most milk toast way possible its even worse than it was before
"the nether always has to be entered through a portal" can we get an F in chat for my Gs that remember the nether reactor core.
U didn't enter the nether with the core... The nether came to the overworld.

F... remember gathering ALL those expensive resources to get trash items and crappy pigmen? It was great, for the memories, not for the gathering xd
>Thinks of Aether mod
"Lets take a loot at the Aether mod"
Literally the first mod I ever played. Those experiences are in the same vein as the first time I played Minecraft. That mod is SO good.
It's been way to long since i played around with the Aether mod lmao
i also enjoyed the aether very much it was all so different and interesting and that was years ago, considering this mojangs performance is pathetic
This just made me think about how when they updated the crafting system and it made me reflect on all the memories I have of looking up and memorizing crafting recipes. That was a huge part of my experience with the game
I still have Minecraft wiki page bookmarked on my phone...lol
A lot don't like the recipe book being there to help you. Which is fair enough. It might just sound redundant as back in the day you could just use the wiki instead. But the recipe book does something the wiki never really did: Tell you what you could craft with what you had. There's plenty you could've just ignored cause you didn't know it existed. Which is a good thing. It encouraged you to actually look for the stuff. Hell, your friend might've excitedly told you that you could craft banners because he threw some wool and sticks into the crafting table. There's a brand new discovery... in a game about discovering things and amassing wealth and mastery over the world.
Real motherfuckers just learned from trial and error and never went on the wiki.
just dont use it lol
I agree with you, but the option is there to toggle it.
this whole critic, two years later, when the new cave update is around the corner and now the warden will be added in the next one is getting everyone excited, its like everything is coming together again kkk
I'd like to see:
*New dimension
*Mining update
*More mobs
*More structures
*More mystery overall
Mojang: 🅱️
The Aether - sky dimension that expands on every aspect of the game
Biome Height Tweaker - Restores big old caves
Underground Biomes - more diverse stone types
Quark - biome-specific caves
Better Underground - cave decorations
Subterranean Waters - underground lakes and rivers
Dungeon Tactics - THE combat/weapons mod, also adds useful new ores
Epic Siege Mod - better AI encourages survival building
The Beneath - hazardous mining dimension
Primitive Mobs - loads of new mobs in the vanilla style
Ruins - THE dungeon/structure mod
Agreed
@Oscar Herden
Just heard the news 😁
@@chelonianegghead274 we dont need too many dimensions
They could totally use the beacon as a portal to a sky dimension of something. The beacon is very hard to get and it doesn't do much, but it could. Just walk into the beam and get "beamed" up into the sky, or to another dimension.
PewDiePie Isurmom good idea
how about when u finish making the largest beacon and it turns on it summons another boss?
If the beacon teleported you to a sky dimension. Why not just have the boss in there. Extra Content.
"Beam me up Scotty"
I think it's too late to introduce an Aether-like dimension in the game... Other mods already has the concept covered :/
15:58 That actually looks really cool. I would totally want to see that as a quite rare thing, but of course, it should contain a lot of valuables. I would absolutely love that.
There is a mod called Cavern which generates epic mines like that!
Off topic but just trying to get my thoughts seen but the beacon and the heart of the sea need a serious buff they are fucking useless and the wither on hard mode is BULLSHIT AND NOT WORTH ANY OF YOUR TIME , try to solo it without 8 people it's not fun..
Also because I play on bedrock edition it's much harder for no reason
Starkiller 6 to the 9 gaming beacons are perfectly fine and conduits are literally meant to just be used to live underwater so I don’t see how that needs a buff.
Also the shells are easy to get at least but the heart of the sea requires you accidentally finding it or going treasure hunting
