Billion dollar company...please understand
Should Notch buyback Minecraft from Microsoft?
>>726456574With what money? They'd probably expect over 10 billion.
>>726456574If you can just make minecraft clones this blatantly, then notch should just make remake minecraft and put it in the direction he wants
>>726456439Minecraft was not made for the combat. It's called Minecraft. It's not called Fightcraft, or Minefight, or Minefightcraft.
>>726456439>Intelligence Artificial enemy Hytale/Minecraft
>>726456682He is lol did you see his new game?It's just Minecraft with more rpg elements
>>726456712Minecraft has been stuck in an identity crisis since before notch sold it, and Mojang has only made the problem worse. Combat is a big part of Minecraft and there's no reason it shouldn't be better.
>>726456872It looks kind of interesting, whereas hytale just looks like a minecraft mod
>>726456712Minecraft was designed as a game where you are to explore a half-dangerous, half-safe world, mining, crafting, and surviving the entire time, to reach the final goal of getting to, and defeating the ender dragon, and then post game was intended for you to defeat two-post game bosses, one called The Wither, and the other called The Warden. The game receiving minimal updates to combat, but ironically enough a clone of minecraft who developed by people who run a server of people engrossed in a really dogshit and inferior PVP and combat of the game deciding to take the leap and make the next step for such a game, is truly a disgrace considering at this point Hytale is basically a passion project made at a loss.Mojangs development choices, are pure laziness, and I hope they do lose to Hytale, or at the very least it's success forces them to finally innovate. Luckily sentiment against minecraft has been on the rise again.
>>726456574Notch is the reason for a lot of the problems in Minecraft. So much of the shit in minecraft was designed as a placeholder and then never improved upon. Now they don't want to improve it because it's part of the tradition of the game or something.
>>726457287Such as what? Creepers are an example of something fun and experimental that Notch added that Nu-Mojang would never add, yes they'd never remove it either, creative easy mode trannies hate such things.It's why that when there was a horror crazy in Minecraft, Mojang decided to add the easiest to avoid, most boring horror mob, isolated to a rare biome that nobody will ever find.They never take risks.
AY AY AY LA INTELIGENCIA ARTIFICIAL ES MUY BUENO
Why are people trying to astroturf Hytale here? I'm already set on buying it, fuck off you spambots.
>>726457375>puts ugly holes all over the landscape>explodes the side of your house >oneshots you without armorCreepers were NEVER good or "fun".
>>726457375Combat, enemy AI, villages, trading, enchantment system, etc.
>we used to use ai for generic enemy scripts>but now ai is exclusively for ring cam videos of cats playing instruments at 4am so game ai has to be called ia nowevery day something gets worse
>>726456872didnt that get cancelled
>>726457625Nta,Thats your personal opinion man, creepers are an ICON of gaming.Can’t say the same when it comes to anything Microsoft added to Minecraft.
>>726456439come back when something releases, don't become the tomboy mecha game eternally cockteasing us without tangible result>>726457573it did just come back from the dead which is equal grounds for grassroots shitposting, corporate shilling, and falseflag intentionally incompetent anti-shilling pretending to be regular shilling
>>726457625Creepers are a filter for shitters like you who have no awareness and want a female creative experience with no challenge at all. Play on easy mode with keep inventory on, explosions do no damage, and no fire spread on, you fucking pansy cuck pleb, these options have been in the game for ages now because women are ruining the game.
>>726457712> CombatLess mechanically deep then it was before the combat update.> enemy AIFair> villages, trading, enchantment systemSo good that Mojang is desperately trying to real that in.Very few people find making villager work camps fun.
>>726457972Don't reply to me with niggers or while high out of your mind. It's a waste of time for us both.
>Hytale>Vintage Story>EverwindAre we getting another Minecraft-likes renaissance?
>>726457712>CombatI would argue that the general public does want a combat rework and them not changing it has nothing to do with Notch, in fact the original combat update came out AFTER Notch to begin with, and IMO it was a step in the right direction. The reason why combat isn't reworked is because of the minecraft PVP audience likes this really niche bullshit that literally no other gamer on Earth likes whatsoever.The sentiment is very similar to kids who play Fortnite build mode, it's a niche gameplay that a few people mastered, and the skin cannot transfer over to any other video game universally, this audience, cries, and screeches when anything changes or alters it whatsoever, even when the general audience/public would prefer something else.>Enemy AITo be blunt, I don't think them not reworking mob AI has anything to do with Notch, I think it has everything to do with laziness. An AI rework would be a significant overhaul to the game, and they have shown to never really do such things >villages>tradingBoth of these have been updated post notch, not well I would agree, but this doesn't do any favors for your argument, it does favors for mine.>Enchanting systemEnchanting does need a rework, but this one you probably are right about surprisingly, Minecraft enchanting is actually seen as somewhat of an iconic thing, even though it's fucking shit, however they have offered up alternatives, which can be seen as a rework, with enchanted books and using an anvil. I don't really see many people using an enchanting table anymore in survival minecraft.
>>726458157Cope + You Lost
vintage storybros... how do we cope with our godawful hit detection...
>>726458428Surprised Vintage Story has a minimap given it's the most autismal game I've ever seen.
>>726458428I tried liking this game so much, does it take 10 hours to do anything, and why is there nothing to fucking do after you do all the basics? Where is the endgame and content? Didn't the dude who made this work on the Hytale team?
>>726458359> The sentiment is very similar to kids who play Fortnite build mode, it's a niche gameplay that a few people masteredI don’t even play Fortnite, but this type of thinking>”oh its difficult, everything should be simplified for mass appeal”Is the reason modern games are so fucking boring these days.
>>726458428that's the neat part, we DON'T, but that's what Combat Overhaul is for to numb the pain>>726458515>Didn't the dude who made this work on the Hytale team?yeah, and he wanted to go all in on Terrafirmacraft autistic immersive simulation with little nitty-gritty microgame crafting tasks to do deeper survival gameplay, but the management wanted to lean more into Hypixel's existing Minecraft & minigames pedigree and do something like vanilla+ Minecraft but better. So he split and made Vintage Story, which has successfully carved out a niche while Simon fucked everything into Riot jeet dev hell.it's a strong case of different strokes if you ask me, I've played and enjoyed it and I think Hytale is going to also be playable & enjoyable but in a quite different way, Terraria 3D was and remains my impression. I still hold out hope for some cross pollination from when the Vintage devs sheltered Hytale teams fleeing the then-cancelled ship.
>>726458428I played way too many hours of Haven & Hearth, I'm good bro.
>>726458604The difference is, there's a difference between, something niche that you mastered as a child because you were basically groomed into liking it by your friends, youtubers, or a pseudo-niche audience reinforcing it, and you have now developed a useless skin that cannot transfer over to anything productive or universe, for example, you cannot really monetize the skin, and you can't even for example become a pro gamer in a game that would get you recognition, fame, or win you money, and said niche no appeal to the average gamer.VSA New and exciting feature or way of playing a game, that adds a layer of learning, and universally fun, and still hard to master.Think of like Sekiro's combat dance or Nu-Doom's Combat Dance on Nightmare+, or even outside of combat a new type of feature that is fun to learn and isn't based around a glitch or anything.
The only way Notch will ever be able to make another hyper successful game would be to come back to 4chan, tail between his leg, and go through a really really brutal but necessary beatdown of criticism.The guy cruised on pandering to reddit and getting infinite money for his shitty tech demo and without anyone criticizing you there's 0% you're gonna make anything worthwhile.Any project that can't survive the criticism of /v/ is doomed to fail.
>>726458919>>726458604Usless skill*** idk how the fuck I typed skin instead of skill twice
>>726458832>yeah, and he wanted to go all in on Terrafirmacraft autistic immersive simulation with little nitty-gritty microgame crafting tasks to do deeper survival gameplayI'm fine with this being optional, but shouldn't the main point of games such as these be the exploration, the content, and like yeah even the combat? If it takes 10 hours to make a pickaxe, then what you're saying is...making the pickaxe is the content, or you're saying we have so little content, that we have to drag out making a pickaxe and various other mundane tasks to hide that fact.
>>726458939this has to be the dumbest post ive seen in months
>>726456439Have you ever heard of the term "if It Ain’t Broke, Don’t Fix It" before?Now imagine wanting to revamp major gameplay mechanics of the highest selling video game in history.
>>726459183It's broke and hasn't been fixed thoughbeit.
>>726459139>criticism is necessary for something good to be made>lmao so dumbAnon, I'm not even giving a take that's in any way shape or form "wild" or "hot", I'm sorry you are so poisoned with irony that you can't have a normal conversation in which you share your actual opinion normally.Maybe with time you'll re-learn now to be a dumb faggot, there's still hope for you.
>>726459206From a business perspective it's basically a Golden Goose.Not touching Minecraft in any major way is unironically the smartest video game related thing Microsoft has done in over a decade.
>>726459270No one here needs or wants to read your opinion, much less anyone with a billion dollars to their name.
>>726459325Poor people have better ideas than rich people, where do you think rich people stole all their ideas from?
>>726458939This place doesn't have the intellectual capital for that anymore.Forget about Notch, and just notice the total lack of projects coming out of here, let alone ones that end up exploding in popularity, in recent years.It's basically a wasteland for any kind of creative effort.
>>726456439Hytale>can't playMinecraft>can play
>>726460165Yes the game that is currently not out but releasing relatively soon, you indeed cannot play. You also can't play GTA6, do you need guidance back to your home child?
No one actually likes this gameevery single post about it is just an excuse to shit on minecraftthe game is just ragebait fuel and no one can say a single positive thing about it without whining about minecraft
>>726460497GTA6 is the worst game ever. Literally unplayable. 0/10
>>726456439>intelligently no one says this. Who made this shit?
I don't think people understand minecraft. It's not really meant to be a game. It more of a sandbox.There's not unique weapons called "the heartseeker" for example because the sprit of the game is that you would enchant and bow and name it with a name tag. Minecraft tries to inspire creativity. That's why minecraft does not have some le epic story because it wants you to tell your own.People criticise minecraft on the basis that they have no imagination or creativity.
>>726462448ok now THIS is the dumbest post i've seen in months
