I'm sure a few of you guys will be coming from TheMisterEpic's video, just wanted to clarify that we're friends and have coincidentally both been working on Minecraft Legends videos for weeks now without each other knowing until recently. No one copied from each other haha.
As always, sources and soundtrack are in the description. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! ♥
Oh
ye
yes
Good to know :)
if you released before him i would watch yours
Ive said it before and i’ll say it again. “Minecraft Spinoff” as a concept does not work. Minecraft, by its very nature, cannot work exist as a series of games. Its best left as a standalone product. Im genuinely shocked dungeons did as well as it did.
Dungeons did so well because the Dungeon Crawler gameplay loop is really engaging and fun. Additionally, Dungeons offered a more laid-back, casual take on the Dungeon Crawler style when compared to other top selling Dungeon Crawlers, allowing it to be picked up and enjoyed by most people.
Mojang is experimenting, some things stick (Dungeons) and some don't (Legends). Story Mode was a good spinoff at first and couldve lasted but the original creators went bankrupt
I think there is more merit to a spinoff working. It'd just need to actually commit fully to whatever genre it is. As pointed out in the video, Legends is a weird mix of a beat em up and a tactics game. And from personal experience, Dungeons is kind of what I'd infer a watered down diablo to be. I think, at the very least, I'd want to see a spinoff that tries to go for a more "mature" level of skill in the gameplay. Either way, would definetly say that Legends does not live up to being THE minecraft strategy game.
@@22XERO22 I think dungeons worked because its more so a completely unique game with the minecraft IP slapped on, rather than a minecraft game. They could have just created a dungeon crawler with an original IP and the game would be relatively unchanged.
Legends, on the other hand, feels like it was created for the sake of making another minecraft game. Dungeons was dungeon crawler game first, minecraft game second. Legends is minecraft game first, whatever genre its supposed to be second.
And minecraft story mode (rightfully) failed because “minecraft” and “story mode” are essentially polar opposites that cannot coexist.
@@orange_turtle3412 Story mode didn't really fail that bad it's just that the creators went bankrupt
To be fair, minecraft story mode was discontinued not because is a terrible game but because the company that owned minecraft story mode (telltale games) had shut down and for obvious reasons, minecraft story mode was discontinued.
Yeah but if it would have brought in any numbers Mojang probably would have done something with it. But instead they left it to die.
Yep and Minecraft Earth was shut down because of the pandemic.
@@LaCazaLP How could they not "leave it to die", the parent company of the game literally shut down. They couldn't do anything with the game if they wanted. How do you even get the rights of something from a company that doesn't exist anymore? Man, people just make shit up to hate on Mojang. Jesus Christ.
@@FlushDesert22 Just steal the IP back? What's the dead company gonna do? Haunt you? Same goes for wires in abandoned buildings.
I was chilling in covid-free New Zealand when it shut down (before we had massive waves of covid again) so I was still playing it all the time. I was heartbroken when it left us.
Let's be honest, no spinoff can ever be like the actual Minecraft.
Ong.
Like adding story to a sandbox game where you create your own story won't work.
still waiting for hytale
Well both MC dungeons and legends tried to add a story in a game where there really is no story. idk about legends becaues i haven't played it, but dungeons wasn't even that bad. If there was a modding community for it, and the base game had better progression it honestly would've survived.
@@bloosixMinecraft dungeons is a good game it as a separate story from Minecraft there is still tons of people playing
Its a good game but not popular. The 30 day average of the game is 384 players, which is less popular than lots of roblox games.@@Crocc101
They did Minecraft: Story Mode and Dungeons so well, but Legends is so bad.
Also minecraft earth that was so good
Dungeons fell off cuz the updates sucked
Eh, Minecraft Dungeons also has its substantial sum of issues, so Legends being a failure wasn't unexpected by the metric of big spin-offs that part of Mojang worked on. What's more surprising is the fact that the Dungeons team went into that project with basically zero experience in making a diablo style dungeon crawler, whereas the Legends team was in part a studio that specializes in RTS games, which one would have thought might balance things out. Then again, Blackbird Interactive were themselves also split between like 3+ projects at the time, so there's that.
Minecraft dungeons still has a very good community/ playerbase@@0kr4m
Dungeons is a super good solo game whereas it looked like they wanted to make legends a multiplayer game that just wouldnt make a good multiplayeer game
@@remor698 I regret buying dungeons, easily could have gone without it in hindsight. It just got so... boring
I honestly think Story Mode was the best out of all of them, but there is no shadow of a doubt that the OG Minecraft just dominates all of them. I also think that they have honestly run out of ideas for new games as well, as the lifespan of each games starts to slowly shrink and shrink, and Legends was definitely a big drop. They should honestly listen to the community more about making Minecraft a better game instead of making spinoffs of other games, because I think everyone here agrees that we need all of the mobs in the mob votes to be added into Minecraft.
That doesn't directly make them money though. I guess they could have the mob vote be for which mob is added for free, and otherwise the mob has to make a donation milestone to make it in?
@@ritasonka330 But as well, the original Minecraft game is starting to feel a bit stale. They still get tons of new players so them getting money isn't an issue. Also it's owned by Microsoft, they have tons of money. Just my opinion.
Whenever I hear Minecraft Story Mode, I can't help but hear Technoblade calling it "Door simulator 2000"😂
in my opinion i like dungeons more than minecraft lol
Long story short, Mojang tries to make other games but immediately discontinues it and fails, because nothing can beat their main game.
Mojang aren't the one making it
Who would’ve guessed a spin-off wouldn’t do better than the game its spinning off?
Nothing can beat it, but minecraft dungeons was very fun. Minecraft may had been much more accessible and loved but dungeon crawler fans could have fun with it using mc dungeons, minecraft legends wasn't good... like at all
I think Minecraft Legends was actually an original idea but then they added the minecraft lore over it. If it was it's own thing and they focused on the Strategy Game players instead of minecraft players, while it might not have sold as many copies, it might have had it's own following, because the idea itself is really interesting, but they had to add minecraft over it.
Remember when Mojang used to make games that weren’t Minecraft
@@sediewAs far as I know they never did.
The company was founded on Minecraft.
The other games related to Minecraft was developed by Notch before he founded Mojang to continue developing Minecraft as he focused on making new games.
He sold it as he became the living face of Minecraft and didn’t want to be the face of a game dominated by a player base that ranges from 6-26.
@@darth3911 what about Scrolls (Caller’s bane)? Or the one they published called Cobalt?
That ending really hits different now. Its still hilarious but theres also some real wholesomeness to it. Matpat aside, youve pointed out a very interesting trend with mojangs minecraft spinoff games that i hope gets explored deeper by people. Great video!
Dungeons was by far the best and still somehow the most underwhelming game out of all of the MC Spinoffs. If I had a choice, I would love Dungeons to come back, but with more creative elements from minecraft.
Yes I agree
It gets very stale. Just do the dungeon tower 2 times and the rewards you get make the story mode insanely easy. To get the rest of the story you have to pay extra on top of the game
Well It is very fun if you not play towers but I do agree. Try playing without tower and it will be much fun.@@Friendly_G
agreed
I never played dungeons, does this mean they shut down the servers or stopped updating it?
I'm one of the only people who actually play it. I put it on maximum difficulty and messed with the settings a bit to make it an actual fun experience. I kept myself entertained by making challenges. EX: I'm not allowed to use the firsts. (Giant golems that make the game 10x easier and boring)
I still wish that they put more effort into the game play. I can think of multiple mechanics that would make it fun like a playable piglin faction.
I will die on this hill that Minecraft Dungeons will forever cement itself as the greatest MC spinoff to date. it was fun, quality, has an amazing set of visuals and sound design, the music was amazing and the gameplay loop was addictive. Of course it had issues, the equipment based gameplay hindered it and that all the new content was locked behind a paywall, but it was still fun enough for me to get every DLC.
*However* they refused to update it and let it die, I will never forgive Mojang for that. They legitimately had a second money printer in the palm of their hands, the game seriously was a fun dungeon crawler for fans of MC and could get people interested (specifically younger gens) in other dungeon crawlers.
They just had to add these things:
- Add a skill tree
- Provide less FOMO content
- Give us some Multiplayer aspect (like the crucible from destiny where to you dungeon crawl stuff and fight each other)
- Give us a custom dungeon builder
- Provide actual endgame content for us
- Produce good modding tools for the game
Just those 6 things, the entirety of 2 studios just had to give us those 6 things and the game would've been self sustaining for years, and yet they didn't. They instead added a shitty tower with a battle pass, ended support and advertised the 'whole new MC experience' they gave up on us for.
And all of this, the betrayal of thousands, maybe millions of players for what? A broken, mediocre, half-hearted experience. I honestly have never felt so back-stabbed from a company I loved so much. I still play normal MC but I won't be playing any more spinoffs until they either commit to a update cycle that at least lasts 4-5 years for a game or at minimum gives us ample content that isn't rushed or feels heartless.
Just disappointing.
"will forever cement itself as the greatest to date"
@@TheJacklikesvideos Storymode was average at best, MC earth died on release and we can see how much of a utter vapid, apathetic catastrophe Legends is. until you give me an example of one other spinoff that was a high quality as dungeons was, my point will still be valid.
Agreed idk why they just let it die. Seems like an allocation of work force to the newer game to me. Just like mentioned in the video
I feel bad for Mojang. I think it's about time to stop with the spin-offs and work with the mainline more.
Edit: (I think I made a new joke turn up the heat)
I don't. They shot themselves in the foot selling out to Microsoft
@@GabrielleTollerson "shot themselves"
With what weapon? Please say a gun.
@@DiamondEmpyrean8273 An arrow to the Knee
@@ArraxTheWolf Okay, at least it was not a lazer.
An arrow bazzoka to the knee
I think Minecraft Spin offs are a great place to test and sample ideas for blocks, mobs, biomes, etc. The main issue I see is they never do anything with all the created objects. Imagine how fun the game could be if we got ALL this amazing stuff from the spinoffs.
Agreed, too much lore friendly content is being thrown away. How do we have enchanting and potions but not magic? I thought if the Iceologer won the vote, then maybe we would have at least one magic item. Knowing Mojang, though, they would make one item and never work on magic again...
@@Smol_PC imagine if the iceologer was in the game it could drop the ice wand from dungeons
@@Top1tippyPersonally I think it should be added as a mini boss with it’s own structure.
@@darth3911 that would be so cool to have an actually good structure in the ice biomes since the only one right now is igloo
Hahahaha im so sad that the game gone wrong........ hahahahaha ( But now they can add 3 mobs per year atleast i guess )
I played the hell out of Dungeons and would love if they did more of it. Legends was fun but it really felt like a one and done ordeal. The only reason to play it after the campaign is just do a challenge but then after all the repetition, playing once feels like you’ve played it all.
To be honest the people who loved Minecraft Dungeons going to play Minecraft Legends know that the game didn’t compare to MCD. If they just stuck to MCD I bet they would have more success. (I love MCD and play it a lot)
What always will make me disappointed about Minecraft dungeons is so much of its structures mobs would be perfect in vanilla Minecraft all the dungeons are already region based too it will also add a reason to actually visit every biome that isn’t just that biome achivement
I remember there was so much hype over the game! There was so many people streaming it on Twitch before! But now there’s barely anyone streaming it on Twitch! It’s crazy how quickly a game can decline!
Nobody new the scope until release; once it became obvious that it was painfully linear most people lost interest. I kept waiting for the moment where I felt "this is Minecraft" and it didn't come, it just fails to carry any of that spirit outside the visuals.
And finally, it got discontinued. I guess the writings were on the wall all this time
Said it once, and I'll say it again
This man deserves way more subs, the videos are really well edited and fun/entertaining to watch
appreciate you bro!
It's weird how immensely flawed Minecraft Legends is as an RTS, considering BBI, who collaborated with Mojang on this project, specialize in that genre.
The only playable faction is the Overworld; the units don't have upgrade paths, you just replace them situationally; the singleplayer being one large open world with no true failure condition means you can just grind up resources and overwhelm obstacles like that, which in some places feels like the intended strategy, mind-numbing and tedious; unit interactions come out to just a clash of numbers rather than strategy with few, if any, counterplay inherent to their design, leaving only evasion in the form of micro managed movement; and the terrain has a shockingly small impact on player strategy in most cases due to how easy traversal everywhere is and pve stealth just does not exist.
And the action part of this action rts is similarly barebones, only providing a single, simple melee attack and fairly standard traversal means, the only element that can be functionally customized, which are all that set the player apart from just being a grounded, unit locked version of a standard rts camera.
And Minecraft Legends did have potential to be way better in all those aspects, especially with the theme of uniting the overworld against the hordes of the nether. Those could have been like three whole factions on each side and the overworld ones could have easily given the player more varied quests than defend and/or attack, showing the personality of each faction more. For the player, different weapons wouldn't have been a crazy suggestion either, like a heavily trimmed down version of the Minecraft Dungeons selection with only one equippable at a time. And if we want to give the players creativity, the different structures are made of blocks so letting players rebuild them for their own cosmetic touch, with some restrictions to still keep the structures recognizable, would've been doable too.
As with everything Minecraft as of late: A lot of potential left on the table for no discernable reason.
7:43 The reason why Minecraft Story Mode was discountinued was not by it selling bad.In fact,many people loved it.Sadly Telltale games,which were making these games went bankrupt and so the rights of Minecarft Story Mode were lost.And because of that,Microsoft hat to shutdown every way of playing the game.
That’s part of it. The discontinuation of telltale rendered the game nearly impossible to play, but the game was cancelled about a year before telltale went bankrupt. It’s a really good game though and I’m sad that a lot of people can’t play it
Tbh i feel like most minecraft players, including me, only play minecraft because of it's unique sandbox style and probably don't care about the spin off it makes. Mojang could make more and more spin offs but the minecraft player base just don't care and want to play minecraft.
Your production quality is overall exceptional for an under 100k channel, but you also mimic disrupt's style very well, so might as well just become their unofficial sort-of logical successor, with your own twists and bits - Id much rather watch you then them from now on. The only thing you need to do for this is try to cover more subjects (not only gaming, but also definitely dont abandon it, we need quality here too) :D Merry Christmas and keep up with the good work!
the real minecraft legends were the friends we made along the way
This hits hard
Things like Minecraft Legends make me miss Minecraft: Story Mode. Sure, the combat mechanics were questionable, but the storyline was leagues ahead of what Minecraft's spinoff games today have to offer, and both seasons offered multiple endings. I'd be interested in a MCSM S3 if it could include more sophisticated combat dynamics.
The beginning tutorial section of Legends (everything between the actual tutorial teaching you the basic mechanics, up to destroying the night beacon), was updated to be way less repetitive.
some notes i want to clarify that ticked me off in the video,
steam charts for minecraft legends are very likely the lowest source of legend's playerbase, as steam is usually reserved for more hardcore gamers while most casual minecraft fans either use the minecraft launcher as its the only way to launch java edition, xbox because of gamepass (albeit gamepass syncs with the launcher so its technically the same) and the other consoles off of pc played by a large children audience
while i do think that a comparison can be made between the decline in popularity and playerbase, using steam as THE playerbase is a tad bit misguided but makes for a good visual for a short video framed in the style of a documentary, which i think looks pretty good btw :)
secondly, saying that spinoffs take the place of others as they die is a correlation that doesnt actually take into consideration outside factors
story mode was produced by telltale, and after the poor sales of season 2 of story mode the entire company bankrupted, with some rights given to netflix to maintain for a bit before vanishing off the platform which surprisingly leaves it with little if any methods to get all of the content legally since telltale's servers are all down so you cant purchase the dlcs unless you bought a console ultimate edition
minecraft earth was developed by blackbird interactive similarly to legends, but the servers were shut down when covid hit and when it finally loosened up the interest in the game was gone and the team then worked on legends
it wasnt because dungeons replaced them, they died on their own time
speaking of dungeons, it was developed by double eleven unrelated from anything else and was discontinued after it reached its final conclusion with content updates and dlcs, and while it could be argued it could go on for longer, it ended without compromise
legends is still ongoing with small hotfixes every now and again with some bonus side adventures you can download every other month (i havent played legends for a while fyi, i just couldnt get into it. fitting, right?)
sorry for the rant i just really wanted to clarify some of the development of minecraft spinoffs because its really interesting to see where minecraft, given the funding to do whatever they really want, try to attempt with the brand
“That’s just a theory” hits different now
I was not aware that minecraft dungeons was discontinued! I have enjoyed that game a lot since its initial release and that actually makes me really sad ): as I was really hoping that there would be another update and I could come back to the game with even a small amount of new content to explore. I understand not making more expansions, but new enchantments and such were really fun to play around with and have been added separate from expansion releases in the past.
Dungeons was actually fun though. Short, but enjoyable. Sadly I can’t say the same for Legends
They did Minecraft Dungeons so well.
Painful coincidence with the Game Theory joke at the end
Caleb, you're videos are getting so awesome!!! I remember when you had 10k subscribers. You've come so far and you're videos have only gotten better! I'm so happy for you and I feel like you're gonna be one of the biggest minecraft documentary youtubers out there. Good luck on 100k!
not even a 10 seconds in i thought to myself 'he's gonna end it with "but that's just a theory", i'm so smart'
Legendary video as always. I love your editing.
Amazing video caleb, didn't even know dungeons got continued, says something about the exposure of the spinoffs after a while
Minecraft Dungeons is simply the best Minecraft Spin Off. As for Minecraft Earth... I think that one was more unfortunate timing... With The Virus and being an AR game😊
Minecraft literally owes every bit of it's success to it's community, not it's devs. Mojang is just not a good dev team. Any game that mojang develops that doesn't have the community picking up their slack it doomed to fail.
The only thing Legends did for me was made me realize: allays are really underutilized in regular Minecraft. They could be so awesome.
A huge problem Mojang has is that they think they sell their products only to kids that are bad at playing videogames that require some sort of skill. That is why Legends and Dungeons were so easy and boring to play because they had no real challenge. But in reality, kids can be more skilled than some adults if we just take a look at Fortnite or the boy that just beat Tetris after no one could finish it after 30 years!
Tbh Minecraft legends just feels like a game that’s kinda meant to be played once get enjoyment from and never play it again till like maybe a few weeks or months later. All these challenges and somewhat of a lackluster major update “Ik it’s hard but I feel like more could’ve been done”. Don’t really work as much.
Certainly doesn't help that the spinoffs are pretty much standalone from the main game. Like there's zero tie in with the main game that could help generate hype, they could add a mob or something from the spinoff game into the main game to help advertise the spinoff, rather then how they do do it, in that you can tell the spinoff is related to minecraft since it pulls alot from minecraft, but there's nothing in minecraft which shows that it's related to the spinoff. If they had added something like the red stone golem into minecraft at the same time that dungeons released, it would help generate traffic for dungeons by giving the main game players a taste of what dungeons had to offer in terms of combat. For legends they could've added in the yellow Allay, and have it gather resources like in legends.
Glow Squid came from Earth, and it is in the main game.
@@Daralexen Glow squid was added to the main game well after minecraft Earth was shut down, doesn't really work to generate hype or traffic to Minecraft Earth it no longer exists. Had it been added to the main game when Earth launched then you'd have a point, otherwise my point still stands.
They did something similar for Story Mode during the era of Legacy Console with a skinpack that featured characters from the game with custom models. That is the only thing besides Glow Squid that is in the main game that originally came from a spin-off. The new Relic disc features the melody of the Minecraft Legends theme, but that is not the same as putting the Yellow Allay or Plank Golem into the main game.@@zackbauer4562
it wasnt legendary enough
the flow of the video and your editing skills are just top notch. You've earnt a sub
I feel like repetitiveness would work if it was in the context of a tutorial mode/level instead of the full gameplay, and I think if they did that, it might fix most issues besides the game being too easy. Also, I think MC Earth was discontinued because of covid to be honest. And, like someone else said, MC Story Mode was discontinued because it's parent company (Telltale games) shut down.
Just want to say something about Minecraft Story Mode! The game was discontinued not because it failed but because the company that made the game (it wasn’t Mojang) got bankrupt! The game itself was very popular and successful and 8 years later there are still people playing it!
HOW TO GET MC STORY MODE!?!?!?!?
@@GAMER32231 You can buy a physical copy for consoles or a steam key. You can also pirate it but I don’t recommend it because it’s very hard or at least it’s very hard for me!

oh my god, i remember you from your bedwars videos, your quality has increased so much. love the work you're doing now ♥♥♥
"There's a good chance it could happen in a year or two."
It didn't even make it THAT long! 😂
Love the incredible videos! Keep them up ❤
They didn't really "discontinue" minecraft dungeons. they had a planned amount of updates and came to the end of the story just like any other story game. It' s still out to download and play through. thats not to be said about the previous 2 spin-offs.
I remember playing Minecraft Earth, I liked to concept, I had a little trouble with the
Mining/Dungeon Crawl events because I could figure out how descend. However I still enjoyed the game. I took a break from it because I was finishing college and then while it was still on my phone I opened it up and found the game shut down.
Honestly I liked Minecraft Earth way more than Pokémon Go.
very well produced video good job especially with the editing, also digital baptism definitely needs more love
Nice video with some pretty neat editing :) I would however suggest lowering the music volume a bit. It's sometimes difficult to make out what you're saying
How do you even learn to edit like this like where do you even learn this from. Really impressive and immersive editing style 👍
I think the biggest issue Minecraft Spinoff games face is the fact that there's really no need or reason to have them. Minecraft is a wildly successful game and it is that way not because of expansive lore, amazing graphics or complex gameplay - Minecraft is successful because it's a sandbox world where there are no objectives. Yes, Minecraft does have bosses in the forms of the Wither and Ender Dragon but, those bosses are entirely optional and offer nothing other than a few trophy items for the player's accomplishment. Trying to turn a sandbox game with the most bare bone lore, gameplay complexity, etc. into something like Dungeons or Legends just isn't going to work.
You see people coming back to so many franchises like God of War, DOOM and more so, why can they have so many games and Minecraft can't? Again, it's because all those other games are fun but also have the benefit of having lots of lore and a character with an actual personality that people enjoy watching and playing as. Minecraft is a blank canvas, that's why it's been such a success but, it is also because of that that it is unable to branch out successfully into other genera, spinoffs or sequels.
I love Minecraft legends, I still play it to this day. But I agree legends didn’t do so well :(
The documentaries are getting better and better keep up the visuals
man how do you only have 72k subs, your content is so good
My nine year old little brother wanted Minecraft Deluxe for his birthday, since he was on playstation. It would give him a bunch of cool items and stuff, including emotes, avatars, texture packs, etc. So obviously he would pick Deluxe over starter edition. So he asks his mom for Minecraft Deluxe and she sends it to a friend, telling her that he wants minecraft deluxe. Here's the thing: when showing her a photo of the game, she showed Minecraft Legends Deluxe Edition, which is absolutely not worth your money, and only gives you 6 fucking skins. On his birthday, he is so incredibly excited, he cant contain his happiness.
Now imagine the fucking disappointment on his face seeing "minecraft legends, the deluxe collection". For refrence, we do not even have an appreciation for any type of spinoff of Minecraft. We're both like, " maybe its not that bad. ". So we boot it up, and are instantly met with a disappointment of a game. Nothing fun. The entire building is automated, the game has nothing to do with minecraft, and the entire campaign is ass. It takes the entire idea of minecraft and throws it out of the window. The game doesnt even feel like minecraft. It's just minecraft labeled over a random ass open-world RPG game. It's not even worth your money.
Love the DISRPUT editing, good video too
The real issue is that these Minecraft spinoffs aren't Minecraft. They're just other games with the "Minecraft" logo slapped onto it. People want to play Minecraft, not whatever Legends or Dungeons tries to be.
most underrated youtuber ever like why is no one talking about Calebs editing its fricking wild
Did you use the instrumental for Father Time by Kendrick for the outro???
Sounds a lot like it
in the defense of Minecraft Story Mode's Discontinuation it was msotly due to the fact TellTale had shut down. Microsoft simply had no reason to keep a license up for a gaming company that didn't exist anymore, though I imagine if TellTale never closed and could've kept themselves going strong we could've had more
Minecraft story mode had the studio shut down and episodic games struggle unless there really special, Minecraft earth came out just before we had lockdown. Minecraft dungeons just struggled to hold players interest and I think similar is happening with legends
Story mode didn't have the studio shut down lol
yet dungeons has a much bigger fanbase and player count
Likely, a good number of those that left Minecraft Legends left it because they finished it and stopped playing. Because they finished the game, they moved onto other games. A few, including me, could not access the game because we are no longer paying for game pass (I honestly want to get back into the game, I found it quite fun and something I can turn on and play when I feel like playing that sort of game, or even to use as a way to build new and neat structures in my Java worlds)
great video, haven't seen such a good youtuber in quite some time!
It makes me mad. Because I _love_ this game conceptually and visually. Its art style is amazing. The music is relaxing and chill. There was _so much potential,_ but it failed because they fumbled the gameplay (the most important part of the game!). They should have taken notes from other RTS games like Pikmin, and they should have seriously done something to fix the repetitiveness.
The worst part is, the game would have lasted so much longer if they had actually _involved the community._ The Myths, Lost Legends, and the game's Marketplace would have been _perfect_ for community made content! Minecraft _thrives_ off of the community. The fact that every aspect of the game basically frowns upon letting the player create their own thing was a huge red flag. No chat in multiplayer is a huge issue (because you know... its a _strategy game),_ there aren't a lot of unique skins to choose from unless you buy stuff (which is not good, considering the price of the game itself is too high), and the multiplayer literally has 1 game mode.
Its like they _wanted_ it to fail, or were just too afraid to actually _try._ It hasn't even been a year yet and they already gave up supporting it. Which really really sucks. I feel bad for the team that poured their hearts and souls into making this, only to have it flop so badly because of stupid executive decisions.
the minecraft story mode was very good , mojang was lazy to make seasons since making so many animations and line texts takes a lot of money and tons of time. it s easier to code 5 minutes to make a new tree and some retextured mobs than making full on animations and dialogues. that s the sad reality
You should have more subs tbh, love those edits and keep going
I love my KaleIsSaltine Christmas uploads
They could go on a weird life sim route. It has the building mentality for it, it would need some social stuff and societal aspects with some established neighbourhoods though. If not that, a city builder/strategy game like Age of Empires or something.
Adding to "watch later" very hyped to watch
so glad i bought it on steam and refunded it
I remember being super excited about it until I realized it's a strategy
Like, "Wow, an actual Minecraft RPG! Can't wait to- oh it's RTS.."
Growing up in the late nineties in the early 2000s I still have the pleasure of playing Minecraft much later and even though I was older I still very much enjoyed it I would say it's probably the only real big innovation game of the late 2000 / early 2010s for Minecraft dungeons however I think the only reason I got hooked on that one was because I played Diablo 3 a few years before it and felt right at home but I did start to quickly see that the storyline wasn't too heavy but had potential prior to this video I didn't know they stopped supporting dungeons actually I didn't know they they kept continuing at to this point but with Legends I honestly don't know where it stands where their customers they were going for dungeons was for Diablo style players that wouldn't mind a Minecraft simplified theme on it but legends yeah I just don't know where they were heading with that.
I need to admit. When Minecraft Legends came out on game pass, I left the game after a month or so..... That was until I returned. And this time I REALLY fell in love with the game.... But I didn't realize that I was one of the many, MANY players that left the game after a month it came out.😳
i remember trying the online around two days after release, never found a match
Mojang needs to stop screwing around with these side games no one asked for and just put all of that world building content and aesthetic polish into vanilla Minecraft.
8:01 "perhaps not today, but maybe in a year or 2" or y'know. 2 & a half weeks after this was uploaded lmao
That game is beautiful man I play Minecraft legends good action good environments and good gameplay and also I love how you summon a lot of mobs to fight with you to fight evil
I dont get why microsoft discontinued support and updates for dungeons just to support a dead game. microsoft and mojang are probably millions or billions, they have enough to support both at the same time. even if the team of dungeons was working on other projects they could hire a team to work on dungeons.
love the disrupt editing style
Wait, Dungeons is discontinued?
I thought it would have some more updates because - it really is fun to play :,D
I need a REAL storymode for Minecraft. Where all the normal attributes exist in it from OG Minecraft, but alongside structures that can't be mined, and random NPC generation (the villagers), where they can give quests. This means there could be 'rare' NPC spawns, like Kings or Dukes, or a criminal. If you save a town from a raid, the villagers will call you hero when they speak to you for a time. There'd also be a new build mechanism where you can put down a red 3d outline that goes invisible once placed, and can be upgraded. Within this outline, you can build a house and the world will recognize it as the players home. That way npcs close enough can pathfind to it. And grr... I just want there to be an option where building things in minecraft can be met with more game creation.
An npc could give you a quest that's like, "Hey, I need to a shop in this location (proceeds to show thin 3d outlines). Could you help me?"" And the player could build for the village. Or a villager could say, "Hey, I really hate competing with the shop owner across town, could you burn their shop down?" and if you do, you'll earn 'fear points' instead of 'heroic.'
Is that a DJ screw sample..? Instantly subbed
...up until this very moment i had thought that "Legends" was the same thing as Dungeons and was confused about everyone talking about it dying, because AFAIK Dungeons is still doing okay?
So I guess part of why it died was that some people just didn't realize it existed as a unique game.
Huh, I didn't even realise Dungeons had ended. Guess I won't be getting into that one.
I don’t know about the other players, but I was very excited to play the game. But for like a month, there was a huge glitch that didn’t let me get pasted like the first hour, it would just soft lock. Time and time again. It really killed my excitement.
Editing is 🔥🔥🔥
Great video btw
dungeons in my opinion is the best minecraft spinoff, also story mode is very cool
Minecraft Dungeons was the game to keep supporting and reworked for a full online if needed, it's a pretty good game.
1:26. Minecraft earth suffers in silence
7:06 Telltale went bankrupt: earth has Covid.
Story mode is honestly the best out of all of these
h3llo CalebIsSalty broo :-D can u believe Christmas is just a week away
christmas!!! just a week away!!! i am so excited about this information
Minecraft Storymode was one of the most successful Minecraft spinoffs ngl, but considering Telltale games (the creator of the spinoff in collab with Mojang) had to shut down, that's why it stopped production. Sure the studio was bought out and revived, but series like TWD telltale series had to be finished, and it's likely story mode would of ended after season 2.
Personally I'm disappointed because Mojang just can't figure out how to make a game that works well for the switch. The game is literally unplayable for me. After the first part of what I think was the tutorial, I got stuck in an area where the allays wouldn't do anything for me, none of the mobs would listen to me, and I was stuck in some sort of box that wouldn't allow me to leave the area. To make things worse, I had just finished playing Tears of the Kingdom which was beautifully put together.
I honestly enjoyed minecraft legends and hope they can add more content and replayability as i think it has potential and good lore just needs more work
The editing of this video goes hard af 🔥🔥
Well, 5 days ago minecraft legends was discontinued. Less than 1 year after its release.
