Hard agree, fuck him for his dumb views, also I feel like I’m getting some downvotes because of him 🤣
A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world 4 months ago
I feel like I hadn’t heard shit about Notch since Trump’s first term. Is this a bad sign
kipo@lemm.ee 4 months ago
I assume he is still transphobic trash.
testman@lemmy.ml 4 months ago
This. I strongly disagree with his decision to let Microsoft take over the thing that is basically cocaine for kids.
Wrufieotnak@feddit.org 4 months ago
Okay, for me the racist and general far right stuff is the bigger problem with Notch.
Agent_Karyo@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Didn’t he get all fucked up and miserable from all that money from the sales to MS?
Kolanaki@yiffit.net 4 months ago
That’s why his new game is going to suck, on purpose. 😃
rockerface@lemm.ee 4 months ago
So it’s going to be AAAA
icecreamtaco@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Ten years of early retirement is probably enough time to refuel his interest in creating

Notch is a fascist.

I mean, to this day I haven’t played a Minecraft clone that left me satisfied and I doubt Mr. Bored Depressed Billionaire over there is gonna capture lighting in a bottle twice…
(And I doubt he’s using his free time to learn a new programming language so it’s gonna be Java again god help us all)
DerArzt@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Real talk what’s wrong with Java? It’s runtime is rock solid at this point and it’s a very mature lang with a great ecosystem.
LiveLM@lemmy.zip 4 months ago
To be fair I’m being a dickhead.
I’m sure Minecraft’s slowness has more to do with how it was built/tech debt and such that Java itself, as the mods that massively boost performance show.
2ncs@lemmy.world 4 months ago
I believe he has been using JS now so all is good 🙏

I thought there already was a spiritual successor to Minecraft: Vintage Story
steal_your_face@lemmy.ml 4 months ago
There’s hundreds if not thousands spiritual successors to Minecraft.
Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 4 months ago
My favorite so far has been Enshrouded. Voxel world that doesn’t look like it’s made of cubes, plus souls like combat (though not nearly the same difficulty).
clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works 4 months ago
Huh. That looks neat. Any favorite parts you’d like to share?
NOPper@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Friends and I have had servers up for years now. It only looks like Minecraft on the surface, it plays pretty differently beyond placing cubes of stuff down. It’s survival focused, so there’s cooking and hunting etc. Making in pretty minimal and then you need to smelt the ores down, hammer ingots into what you’re crafting voxel by voxel, and climb up the ladder of materials while dealing with more and more complex processes to make better items.
There’s seasons that affect crop growth and animal health, and your internal body temp is tracked so if you don’t wear warm enough clothing or let it go to tatters you’ll freeze to death in winter. If that starts to suck hard enough you can travel thousands of blocks toward the equator and the average temp will go up as you do. There’s no biomes like MC, areas are populated based on average seasonal temps and rainfall dynamically. Altitude affects these too.
It’s neat.

WHAT IS VINTAGE STORY? youtu.be/HbUKmXhDuZg
Love the game!
TheDemonBuer@lemmy.world 4 months ago
I haven’t played it, I’ve only seen clips on YouTube.
BombOmOm@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Hopefully it will be a banger like the first!
RightHandOfIkaros@lemmy.world 4 months ago
What a Lemmy moment. A positive comment of a person excited about a new game getting a negative vote score.
BombOmOm@lemmy.world 4 months ago
The site can be fun sometimes. ;p

What happened to 0x10^C ya bigoted fuckkkk I liked the concept of that one

Notch has a track record of announcing things he wouldnt add
I am still waiting for fortress mode to be added to Minecraft, for the planned dlc and for the game to be licensed under an open source license
altima_neo@lemmy.zip 4 months ago
Don’t forget the story mode he said they’re be adding.
Earflap@reddthat.com 4 months ago
Api when
RandomVideos@programming.dev 4 months ago
Hasnt that been added in bedrock edition?
TheEighthDoctor@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Yes, the DLC we were promised for life for buying it during alpha.
A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 4 months ago
I look forward to eagerly not playing it.
Stern@lemmy.world 4 months ago
There’s no Infiniminer 2 for him to crib ideas from though so hows that gonna work
dwzero@lemmy.ml 4 months ago
Infinifactory?
AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 4 months ago
Okay, but haven’t we already had this in the form of [ Insert Failed Game Here ] or Luanti?
garretble@lemmy.world 4 months ago
We already have Dragon Quest Builders.
MotorCade93@sh.itjust.works 4 months ago
The superior game and it already has a sequel!
kipo@lemm.ee 4 months ago
This is the way. Dragon Quest builders 2 is a joy to look at and play.
callouscomic@lemm.ee 4 months ago
Note it says work on, not finish.
altima_neo@lemmy.zip 4 months ago
He still never finished Minecraft.
At this point, he should just rehire Jen’s to do it again.
Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Only white people will be allowed to play.
Fizz@lemmy.nz 4 months ago
We have that. Its the mods on top of Minecraft. Nothing made will ever come close to those.
style99@lemm.ee 4 months ago
Pretty sure Terraria already exists.
KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml 4 months ago
I don’t know what he’ll do to make Minecraft better, he doesn’t have Zachtronics to steal ideas from this time around; and nobody likes him.
warmaster@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Please for the love of god. Someone add proper split screen and controller support for any Minecraft clone.The mods available aren’t good enough for kids.
