Yeah, I'm hardly Notch's biggest fan right now, but that video is literally 18 minutes of bullshit whining plus 30 seconds where they offhandedly dismiss everything fun or good about Minecraft.

Eh. Their presentation came off poorly but they made some good points I guess. Combat is pretty sucky and unrewarding in that game. It just doesn't feel like a complete game. Everything about Notch being money hungry was just laughable though.

Oh yeah, like there's a load of valid criticisms you can make. I've done my own share of whining about it Minecraft's current issues.

But that video is pretty much just what Niku says: an assload of butthurt.

I dunno, maybe these guys are friends of Yogscast*? There's some stupid INTERNETS DRAMALLAMA going on now after they bitched like little kids about Notch at Minecon and Notch bitched like a little kid right back.

*Why were these guys big anyway? Their videos were always INCREDIBLY ANNOYING to me. Is this just one of those "LOL YouTube!" things?

About the Notch and yogcast thing, turns out that Notch was full of shit.

What Notch has been up to

I'm surprised that link didn't direct me to a youtube video of Scrooge McDuck diving into his vault of money.

Ugh, I hated minicraft. Mostly because the only way to see underground is to hold a lantern, and you can't attack at the same time! And switching to your power glove (couldn't he have just mapped lifting to a third key? Z is right there!) after every time you have to put down the lantern and select your sword gets annoying as balls after like 5 minutes. It's almost like he made the game in 2 days with a minimum of playtesting!

Mongrel · « **Reply #1328 on:** December 24, 2011, 11:52:21 AM »

Which is probably exactly what he did.

There are talks being made about making a joint Bronto/TT Factions server. I'm probably going to replace Zanzibarland since the latest iteration was just for me and a few other people in the first place and there isn't anything too important there. Anyone have any other suggestions?

François · « **Reply #1331 on:** February 15, 2012, 07:33:25 PM »

That sounds good to me. I haven't been on in a long time myself but it feels like I'd only need the faintest excuse to, really.

upthorn · « **Reply #1332 on:** February 22, 2012, 07:34:50 PM »

I've just about exhausted SP mode, and would be all over a new MP server to muck about on.

The finally implemented the one feature people've been clamoring for since the game began.

Upside-down stairs.

Mongrel · « **Reply #1334 on:** February 23, 2012, 06:58:07 PM »

NO FUCKING WAY

Oh man, really? I can't find that anywhere. I mean, I can see people posting about it, but I can't see an announcement anywhere. And there have been third-party mods for a while that do it.

NexAdruin · « **Reply #1335 on:** February 23, 2012, 08:11:03 PM »

wait why do we need upside down stairs what am I missing

Mongrel · « **Reply #1336 on:** February 23, 2012, 09:39:17 PM »

Making proper arches and other forms.

I.E. it's for creative/junior lego builder-type stuff.

upthorn · « **Reply #1337 on:** February 24, 2012, 06:59:56 AM »

Documentation of the upside-down stairs is at http://twitter.com/#!/jeb_/status/172627282408652800 and http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Version_history/Development_versions
Now all I want is for stairs and halfblocks to be craftable out of every placable block type (like glass, logs, leaves, and non-cobble stones)
