What went wrong?
>>341220937
Adventure update
>>341220937
Pandering to reddit.
>>341220937
so many things
>>341220937
Hunger update was a bit of a fun killer.
>>341220937
1.8 and beyond
Lets Players and children got a hold of it. Then Mojang saw the incredible market and was easily able to sell merch of various products to children. They eat that shit up crazy and then the whole game just panders to them.

past hunger just ruined the simplistic nature of it. it wasn't just building shit anymore. it was real life autism.
>>341221442

>>341221291
Top-tier autism, I don't think I've ever seen this much anger.
>>341220937
Everything after Alpha
>>341221234
This. It simply got too popular. There is not a single game that has survived such a massive wave of attention and came out ok.
>>341220937
Everything
>>341220937
Focus on annoying or pointless stuff like Hunger and pre-built temples / dungeons instead of meaningful updates to the game experience that exited before than.
The change in world generation was also kind of lame. Biomes are just too samey to ever be interesting, and should have had more intricate intersections / blends between different biomes, as it is now, every plain, every forest, every desert is generally just like all the rest, as opposed to the old way where you could have forests with mountains in them.
>>341220937
Anything past 1.7.3 was incontrovertibly a mistake.
>>341220937
>What went wrong?
Absolutely Nothing.
We all enjoyed it when it was still new and interesting (alpha)
and then the creator made billions and moved on
children and autists still enjoy it and continue to latch on, and I say good for them
stop worrying about the minecraft community and go enjoy your big boy games

The Mojang team are exceptionally lazy fucks, Jeb being the least so.
They release updates that can fuck over community servers, as they often have to restart everything to spawn new biomes or new blocks/items found in them. The latest being one example.
Combat Update was a decent "in bulk update", but if you're adding new foods and such, make it really count.

All they really had to do was write a proper modding system. It's not by all means easy, especially if they want to allow you to automatically download clientside mods for servers you join (and twice especially security-wise), but that literally the only thing they really needed to do. Any of content they pump out is greatly overshadowed by mods, mods that are mostly inaccessible to majority of players.
>>341223718
notch did what any /v/irgin would do in his circumstance
when he found out that he made boatloads of money regardless of how much he worked on the game, he stopped working
>>341223552
>>341223706
If Mojang wants to make this game rpg why are they half assing it so much? Go all out with magics and fantasy enemies and shit.
remember when everyone was excited for seeeecret updates and what new cool features were added? it was like 2009 or 2010, fuck
>>341223430
>>341221291
>watch video
>kid immediately screams at 5 khz

>>341223718
Autism.
The addition of redstone and logic systems isn't a bad thing in it of itself, but then parents en masse decided that Minecraft was an excellent edutainment game. And thus its fate was sealed. The audience didn't want a living breathing world to live in, they wanted to become rich and famous Youtubers. Hundreds of thousands of kids and manchildren autistically placing bricks and contraptions in increasingly intricate structures hoping that their next magic act would earn them riches beyond imagination.
>>341223992
Like I said in >>341223354
There is no driving force other than occasional boredom.
>you will never experience joy of your first playthrough again
Well, the fact that instead of focusing on expanding the gameplay they went for the gimmick approach while showing their incompetence in the midst of it.
Truly, and I hate to be a broken record, Terraria is what Minecraft should've been,
>Released as a small but ambitious little game
>Not much content, but it's fun especially in multiplayer
>Devs begin updating it by adding new tiers of equipment and new crafting materials and recipes
>(Excluding the pause Red took from development) keep a steady pace, continuously releasing more and more updates, so much so that the game now looks unrecognizeable from how it was years before
>Never ask for a single dollar for what should have been called paid dlc
I mean for fuck's sake, Terraria gives you a perfect sense of progression. From being a tiny human that can barely explore a cave with two kms of rope to a flying alien wizard that shoots swords.
>>341224204
Damn...would have been fun to see Minecraft blossom into a 3d Terraria. Kept it's lego aspect of exploration but rpg elements right. Can't believe autists and manchildren ruined it.
Mod's can "fix" it but there's no real community behind them thus no fun playing by yourself.
>>341223803
I kind of want to make a fuckhuge mod just to spite mojang, tell them that whatever the fuck they're doing over there ain't enough. If a singular person can make a mod that pretty much rewrites the game and makes it far better than vanilla, then clearly a whole team of people can do the same shit.
>>341224020
It was a happy few months, and then they stopped and he went to reddit.
You know, I was always thinking that reddit would be a fad just like every other popular site that came before it, but it's been 7 years now. People left SA and it lost relevance, people left ebaums and it died, people left gaia and it died, people left FP and it lost relevance, SA lost relevance again, but reddit is just a thorn that won't go away. Why is it not dying just like everything that came before it?
Were we the ones that died?
>>341224412
>Remembering being a scrub in iron armor fighting a toothy eyeball with a silver bow evolving to a master wizard fighting aliens and gods
Thanks for that moment anon.
I planned on buying it since I never experienced multiplayer before. Are there servers that aren't modded out the ass and are like vanilla?
>Guy who makes Optifine was asked by Mojang if he could sell the code to them and/or work with them
>he refused both
>Mojang just doesn't optimize it themselves for whatever reason.
1.10 runs terribly, what the fuck.
>>341220937
>wrong?
Fucking hell, Minecraft has done very well regardless of how shit the project went on after multiplayer was implemented. The game is an indie success story because of how much fucking money it made/ is still making. Notch gave today's children virtual Legos and that shit is dope as fuck for little snots these days.
>>341224751
End game Terraria was so fucking crazy.
>>341224751
Exactly.
Also, many people forget that not only they added more and more endgame content with each patch, they also rebalanced and rewarked a lot of the early game, making it far more fun.
>>341220937
nothing. just play by yourself or play with your friends.
no need to play on public servers with autistic children.
I wonder if the difference between Terraria and Minecraft development was because in Minecraft, it was actually programmer's job to add content, while in Terraria there were dedicated people for creating content and programmers only did what they were told.
>>341224612
Thaumcraft is it. Thaumcraft alone literally overshadows everything Mojang tried to achieve. Although Thaumcraft is a bit more heavy on crafting side.
The Twilight Forest and Aeter are mods that focus on exploration. Conveniently both use almost none of original Minecraft asjavascript:;sets.
>>341224706

First minecon was 13-17 and up geeks who ran D&D style roll play servers, programmed mods and bucket plugins, distributed customizable texture packs
Last minecon was 6-8 year old mouth breathers who were still to nervous to leave the house, forced to participate in a crowd to large for them to understand.
>>341225045
Never dropped for me.
Me and my friends a year ago played Terraria for 70 hours until we beat the Moonlord. I think the most notable thing that was dropped was the sword that shot kittens.

>>341223354
>but if you're adding new foods and such, make it really count.
Don't remind me about beetroot. Holy shit, I can't even go back to vanilla after dabbling in mods. How do you let modders add in things that vastly improve on the game? All of the planned features for vanilla have been done already, and 1.10 is an absolute joke in terms of content.
>>341225151
That bow is crafted from vortex pillar drops. Too bad the extra effect doesn't really do shit in expert mode. I only wish it didn't have that dumb warm up time.
>>341225228
oh shit
>>341220937
Minecraft with a mod pack consumed like a month of my life. Consumed as in every free minute I had I would boot up the server and get my no job friend to play.
Thaumcraft is actually amazing. Its basically its own game and its worlds better than normal Minecraft. But really, lots of mods are the best bet since there is ALWAYS something you can be working on at any given time.

I have to ask myself that question all the time. Even if we are still here, most the people here don't seem to be the same.
>>341225598
Yeah magic is kind of a mixed bag. Spells with good effects tend to lack in power, and spells with good power have shitty effects or high mana costs.
>>341225605

>>341225403
Fucking autist.
Notch was one of us. He made a videogame to be fun. He was a kid inside. Jens wants to be an adult. The new crew wants games to be educational. They don't want someone designing a redstone cpu all by themselves, they would rather force them to pretend to be friends with someone else.
That's what they did wrong, they tried turning Minecraft into fucking school.

>using the smiley with the carat nose
>>341226016
We'd have none of mods we'd have now if it was written in C++.
>>341225961
You don't know your history. Notch is still one of us on the inside and he still hates everyone, he just has effectively infinite money and time.
The game went to shit long before Notch left.
>>341226095

>>341226178

I bet he spends most of his free time shitposting on here still.
>>341226248
a c++ distributable isn't so easily decompiled and modified
in java, the distributable is effectively the whole project and can be modified at any time
>>341225804
Not only that spells all feel too similar and reminiscent to guns with infinite ammo. Only unique spells are Blizzard Staff, Razorblade typhoon, bat scepter and bubble gun. Everything else is projectile based and it sucks.
>>341226248
All mods were written by decompiling game code. Java decompilation is working extremely well - you can decompile the program, compile it, and get a working executable. C++ decompilation is nowhere near Java's.
>>341225403
I'm too lazy and short on time to properly research it, is that mod only magic or does it also introduce some new enemies to go with it?
I'm looking at enjoying an autismal MC playthrough with some mods but the game needs some challenge first
>>341225403
This is how I felt about buildcraft and all the industrial mods for it, too.
I could play a game that was just that. Making assembly lines and mass-producing some overpowered shit made me feel like the mad scientist that no game had ever made me feel before.
Is Starbound/Crea/Planet Centauri/Othersameshit worth my time or should I just re-start a world and character from the beginning on Terraria?

I don't know, there was some nasty shit talking going on between him and the anons of the time, and he was a pretty sensitive and shallow person.

It has ONE new mob, which is just a tougher zombie.
That's why I suggest a pack, it's not fantastic on its own. It's a little bit too hard to get everything you need, and you'll want to focus on other stuff from time to time to avoid going insane.
>>341227060

Damn, that's not even on my private tracker yet.
Though it's in early access, so I'll check back on it in a few years.
>>341226178
Yeah, i didn't mean it like that. It went to shit when Jens got a voice.
The last good mojang video was when notch decided the placement for minecon by hitting a globe with a claymore. Grade A internet humor. In that same exact video you can see Jens getting pissed because he thinks notch looks "immature"
Next few videos, everyone's skinny and dressed in $50 designer hoodies (compared to notch's jeans and grease stained shirt) talking like they're in some fucking design firm. Get real. This is Minecraft.

(Since the issue right now is that there's absolutely no space anymore for more biomes and stuff), maybe like Minecraft's Hell or Netherworld, but never implemented them.

Mod support going down the drain in later versions, which is only partly the fault of Minecraft.

Yeah, I've had the same problem. I just like to lurk. It's been a very long time and it feels like there's less and less worthwhile posting here. Maybe I should have posted more.
I kinda miss the old days before /vg/ when you could just make a thread asking people to play X and you'd get a dozen people, or you would see a thread asking people to play Y and you had no reason not to.
A picture is worth a thousand words.
Neo-/v/ likes to praise him because le gamergate garbage but people who were born before 2000 realize he's pure cancer.
>>341220937
It went from a simplistic island survival game to an over-complicated mess. Half of the new mobs add nothing but just being there. Honestly, just adding running to pre-1.8 would've gotten the game perfect.

>tfw old server buddies you'd just build shit with
I wonder what they're all doing now.
>>341228614
ooooh I didn't know that. Interesting.
>>341228105
Because different mobs spawn based on the background in Dungeon post WOF. For example I roll a Ranger and the sniper skeleton doesn't spawn because I don't have the right background I can't get the scope drop nor the sniper rifle, I'd have to make a spare map and kill the required bosses until hardmode dungeon unlocks. It's just needless busywork that can be skipped if all 3 backgrounds are on the same map.
>>341228123
Obviously but Crimson/Corruption spawning in Jungle and not having all 3 background types is just a time consuming mess to fix.

During Microsoft's conference they were showing off Minecraft new features and for the VR featureJohn Carmack chimed in "Can I join in too?" and began playing Minecraft in VR with two shills. He didn't talk about the design or process of how he achieved the VR support he just faked enthusiasm for riding a minecart in Virtual Reality.
>>341229476

He literally wears a fedora for fuck's sake.

>>341231903
I've literally never heard of any requests for this feature other than your post right here, and I used to play MC and frequent it's communities pretty frequently.
Mod it in, it'll be better than what the devs would do. Stop waiting for the world to hand you shit.
>>341228984
Not exactly.
They should have had the mod API out before selling off.
They should have done the transition better.
But the main modder supporting the others should not have taken his ball and went home fucking everyone. I get why he did it, but damn. It had us hooked on it and then crippled the modding community when it was pulled.
>>341220937
Split in the community.
Some wanted it to be virtual Lego, others wanted it to be a survival game. Notch tried to appease both, and pretty much only managed to build a 'somewhat' competent Lego program and a very basic barebones and boring survival game.

He knows not where he is. I can't say I blame him, it is before his time.

You know why it's a mod? Because it was removed from the game in exchange for the end and someone modded it back in.
I kinda quit playing a bit after the jungle update.
I always liked playing on this one Factions server called ShadowRaze had a sweet sky base made of glass that didn't cast shadows, with 1000 blocks of ocean in every direction. Undetecable. Back then it was for unironic PvP fun. I left for a while after piling up 2 and a half stacks of diamond blocks.
I came back a year later. My guy who sold me those blocks got banned for racial or homophobic slurs. I was sad. Server was kinda dying too. Only like 60-90 players instead of 140-200. I built a new ocean sky base, since the world had been wiped, and became relevant in the server again. World gets wiped 6 months later and I leave again, for like 2 or 3 years.
Try to come back, the server is part of a network of servers now. Basically completely dead. Like 20 people tops. My donator rank is gone too. I'm kinda sad. RIP.
Now I'm back again. I'm still playing factions servers, but I Xray, and hack now, partly to catch up to everyone else, partly because it's fun being le haxor guy. Haven't started the fighting part.
It'll be another 2 or 3 weeks before I have enough protection 4 again, and godswords. I got the sky base going again though.
The game is still somewhat fun to me. Some of these new biomes are dumb. Like the ice spire one, and the mesas, and the like mossy stone forests... I just wanna grief 8 year olds with my hacks now.
I wish I could be like 13 again, on that first server when it was still alive...

Where's the issue then? I originally said that if you miss the feature so much, mod it in. Turns out it's already modded in, so why the fuck do you still complain?
I honestly don't see how this piece of common sense makes me retarded.
>>341232140
Wait what happened? I'm going to have to ask for more details.
Did the guy who did the deobfuscation get pissed and leave? Why?

>The Sky Dimension was first announced when Notch tweeted a picture of the dimension. It was probably made to be like a "heaven," because the Nether was considered to be like a hell. The Sky Dimension was not completely confirmed until Notch released an update via Twitter stating: "And because PC Gamer made such a big deal of the Sky Dimension, I guess I'll have to finish it. Consider it confirmed."
>In a live webcast on the Swedish gaming site feber.se Notch revealed that the Sky Dimension would "probably be a dream world" and that when "you go to bed there is a certain chance that you get teleported into the dream world instead. Then you will be able to do it on purpose later on."

No he's being an obtuse hipster. Floating islands did happen with the beta terrain generator, but he's talking about an indev map type.
>>341234469
You just don't know, and you aren't even trying to learn.
You land you post on is the uncredited birthpace of many things. It was once called home by many content creators who have since abandoned and forsaken it.

Nothing, notch is a fucking billionaire.

I obviously don't know, but if I wasn't trying to learn I wouldn't still be replying to you.

I played with thaumcraft before but I never got way to into it. What can you do with it?
Adventure update ruined it by detracting from the point of the game: build cool shit using resources you had to work for.
What are some good mods for the game if I want to start playing again?
>>341220937
Not only did it die with 1.8.1, it was raped to death after being on literally every single platform you can imagine
It lost its magic and is one of the worst games kidz deez dayz plat
It's really sad since it was probably the closest you'll get to "art" in video game form, even if it is just legos

Pull up a chair, my child.
There was a small, free, open source game by the name of infiniminer that had much potential but a lazy developer. A culmination of ideas hatched by anons of ye olde were the subject of many threads. One particular anon by the name of notch(such a contradiction) applied some ideas in a little project of his own. Out of these threads came what would eventually become minecraft. By listening to ideas from fellow anons and applying them rather quickly, he grew in popularity. He had a small history as a game developer of Wurm, as well as a long history as a convenience store clerk. He asked for a measly 5 euro for continued updates to his game as he was turning it into an actual product with the intent to release. Many anon were happy to have something to throw money at, something with such promise and potential at such a bargain price in time before the indie boom. Notch, being the semi-competent developer he is, made an attractive and functional website for his java game and shared it with those he saw fit. Being the content creators we were (with quite the influence and reputation) his website and game spread quite quickly. Notch no longer needed to show up to work and development was expected to double or triple in production. Instead, he took a vacation and development slowed beyond belief. The hate being spewed at Notch was too much for his /v/irgin heart to bear, so he packed his bags, moved to reddit, and never came back.

Minecraft became too popular for its own good and development on it has pretty much come to a halt in worries that they'll piss everyone off at the changes.
>>341220937
They kept adding so much useless shit. Still fun. I will play along with my sis

What content? Place a block and destroy it?
Does anyone still play it? I do
>>341221060
this for me
XP and hunger was just fucking retarded for me
>>341233935
While using this feels somewhat cheap, I can reliably get a decent map. Thanks
>>341222886
Pretty much this. The game gets boring very quickly once your creative juices are gone and you don't have any friends to play with (4channers dont have friends).
Minecraft is dead to anyone above the age of 14 or non-autistics.
>>341225194
first minecon was notch
just notch
>>341237434
A lot of 4chan users have some form of talent they use to create various forms of content. I am not talking within the confines of playing minecraft. That is part of what made 4chan so great. People made things for the sake of making things, minus the ability to be recognized for said things and everyone knowing that if you claimed you made it, you were most likely lying unless you had some way to prove it.
>>341237806
>form of talent
>no proofs
Yeah, i too have a 'talent'. I wonder why it never gets recognized you if you know what i mean.
>>341237925
You never know. Make a video of it and share it with the right person, and a few people will care.
Surely you know of the cumjug guy?

Why did you have to remind me?WHYY?
God it was so sad and painful.

>I played the game since the start of the beta
>He wasn't an alpha player
Yeah that explain it.
Fucking casual.
Minecraft used to have amazing world generation.
They fixed it by making it more "realistic" but infact what they were doing is making everything boring. Why did minecraft even need realism. Worlds used to be completely unique but now you can barely tell the difference between random mountain #1 and random mountain #2.
For me the worst thing was when they rebuilt the world generation engine.

Holy fuck this is weapons grade autism
>>341221291
how is that even possible.
Minecraft gets boring and cheap as shit sometimes. A game to pick up for awhile and then leave.
>>341223992
Late to thread, but this is why I'm waiting so patiently for Cubeworld to come back. If Minecraft did something like that, while still keeping what they had, basically just adding every mod in Tekkit to the game, it might be more appealing.
