Yea, the premise was really cool. It was set in the heat death of the universe or something like that. The stars had darkened, only black holes and planets remained and you would explore the vastness and scavenge resources to survive. Including mining on planets. Basically grim dark space minecraft.
I think the biggest problem with that idea was that neither Notch nor most people at Mojang at that were up to the task. None of them was a professional programmer. The games code was a bloody mess (well, not like Marcroshit fixed that).
@@derautisadrianos7050 I'll be honest I don't even know how you make a new minecraft, all minecraft seems to be just addition to minecraft. It never ends, like minecraft building projects.
@@Limrasson Easy. You keep the basics, but remake everything else. Start by writing good, high performance code instead of that java slop. Modern consumer-grade machines can easily run Minecraft-like worlds with multiple magnitudes higher render and simulation distance. After that, think of good game design. Sometime during the late Minecraft beta, it all went horribly wrong.
He's worth paying attention not because he made a good game. Lots of people make "good" games. It's because he made a good game, then he listened to and worked with the community to make it a GREAT game. That's how Minecraft turned into the hit it became.

Additional context: Notch made a poll earlier asking his twitterbase on what kind of game he should make first after finding a spark to make games again. It was between Minecraft 2 and a -Stardew Valley-esque- cozy 2d rogue-like game. Although Notch was pleading for either the latter to win or a tie, people voted the most for MC2 for obvious reasons.

@@anonisnoone6125 Not really. Microsoft have slowly been trying to push the Bedrock version (crossplay varient) out a lot more heavier than the original java version. Servers dying out has mainly been due to two main factors, one being the EULA making it so servers cannot distribute and sell commands or items that give an advantage to a user and the second one being that most servers now focus on competitive style game-modes that reset monthly or every 3 months etc so unless you're already in a faction/team of some sorts, you'll never be able to settle down and enjoy the multiplayer aspect. That being said, there are of course servers out there that respect the EULA, are chilled and have a friendly player base but if there's one thing I know, they're washed off the face of publicity from the majority of what I mentioned so those who are hopping on server to server to seek somewhere to stick around don't tend to stay long enough because more often than not, it's fair to say people can judge a server like a book just by seeing the automated money hungry (go to /store) announcements, the spawn (crate area for premium keys) and colourful rank tags in TAB and chat.

He has the money, the resources and connections to make whatever game he wants. The only thing that could hold him back is if he signs to a studio and they put him one the clock.

We were meant to get a proper spiritual successor to Minecraft years ago called Hytale. The trailer dropped over 6 years ago and got 61 million views; the developers freaked out and delayed the game by a few years so that they could make something that would live up to the hype of 61 million people, but then the studio, Hypixel Studios, got bought by Riot Games, and it all went downhill. They have a website where, once upon a time, they posted blogs and development updates about once a month, but that quickly stopped, and now they post maybe once a year to just tell people that Hypixel Studios is not dead and the game is still being worked on, but that's about it; all the hype of 6 years ago is now gone, and the game is most likely never going to come out.
@@ano_nym This is pretty much where I'm at, partially as a product of time. If Hytale came out today in the form that was promised, it'd feel a bit dated.
@@Navhkrin That's because Hytale is trying to be the next Roblox not the next Minecraft. They want a platform they can monetize the shit out of and profit from the creations of the community like Roblox does that's why Riot bought them not because Riot wanted a "spiritual successor" to Minecraft.
- Ignored Consumers w/ the Mob Vote being done - Fumbled the bag with frogs and fireflies - Fully removes the mob vote when people brought up actual criticism on how easy it'd be to get all 3 in game - Not just one but two to three shit updates including a two part that didn't need to be a two parter, and an empty ass unfinished biome Yeah let Notch take over, Microsoft is fuckin cooked.
Don't forget the horrendous modernization with Bedrock and all those fugly ass Marketplace microtransactions. Mojang would've fully killed Java years ago if they had the leverage to do so.
There actually has been a lot of changes... Just not content wise Mostly under the hood stuff, including lots of under the hood stuff done in minor versions which should have been done in major versions Basically resulting in constantly leaving mods in a state of updating, and packs in a state of releasing multiple versions behind
01:20 He also made Wurm as one of the two main creators (and guess what, the game was about gathering and building stuff) which was really groundbreaking for the time, and kinda spawned a whole subgenre of MMORPGs (so far each one flopped horrendously)
@@ArtisChronicles Yeah Wurm was basically a similar ideology to Dwarf Fortress: "Let's simulate everything, add as many systems as we can implement, and see what happens!" but without the quality or character of Dwarf Fortress lmao, and it ended up dying. it's just too grindy, it offers something unique for a very certain type of player but that's about it.
Tldr; >doesn't know what game he's making >doesn't care if he makes new games >announces minecraft2 >says it's a spiritual successor >says spiritual successors are washed up and tragic All in order btw..😊
"😊" I fail to see whats so erroneous about a man and his passion, people arent machines, and this is epitomised here, by giving a very clear avenue for failure, and a fair forewarning its not like he has a massive studio, not everything that is flavourful must engender to any particular agenda. Gone are the days in which game creation was raw and unfiltered, now you expect everything pre-chewed, and the developers to hold your hand while they unveil the roadmap, expectations of conditioned consumerism.
Notch is an incredible engineer. When I was a kid I used to read his blog about techy stuff and that is literally what got me interested into computers and programming. I am now about to release my own small game on Steam!
Tbh post the name here. Get people mass hating it because it's under asmongold video and then asmongold makes a video about it and makes it somewhat popular. As foretold
DOA, anything notch thinks of is already a mod for Minecraft. This is why Bethesda blatantly said ES6 will be a disappointment to the fans, because the modding community is so large theres zero aspect that hasent been already thought of as far as change goes.
Bethesda dug their own grave there, almost like if you let someone else do your job for you, and they do it really well, nobody will need you to do your job anymore. Maybe if anybody had faith in Bethesda to make higher quality content than the modders for their games, people would be less disappointed, hmmmm
several great modcommunity games got successful next versions. for es6 they literally just need to make the same thing as they did with skyrim, improved graphics, better potential for mods and good enough basegame so it is sold in large enough numbers. of course with their last few attempts the chance for that is very slim and they will probably bake in way too many monetization option to the base game to make it shit. they probably would be better off with a free to play route and hope they can sell enough horse armor and other stuff to gain it back.
@@KentVigilante don't mention it, we already had WW3 in africa around 2014/2015 and currently where in a sort of proxy war with russia and china that might as well be WW4. No one wants to admit that WW2 wasn't the last great war.
@@Ghorda9it was the last great war. Aside from the many genocides that the UN totally prevented since it’s basically the entire reason we even made them, there hasn’t been a war that’s caused nearly as much bloodshed as world war 2. We literally lost like 50-60 million people in the span of 6 years my man, no war has been even close to that level of slaughter since. It’s called the last Great War for a damn good reason.
To be fair, in context of him openly calling it a 'microsoft shittification', the praise comes more across as 'You are doing a great job at following Microsoft's instructions to ruin the game, keep it up!'. I wouldn't read genuine approval into it, beyond maybe empathy for a studio having to work under a big corp's thumb.
well the same game with the same mod support but in a waaaay better engine and I would be happy. For performance reasons. Don't need triple A graphics.
@@Baustakar Maybe check out Luanti (formerly known as Minetest). It's a free and open source clone of Minecraft. I haven't kept up with it, but last I heard it wasn't a complete game by itself, but more an engine with mod support. There are mods that add a Minecraft-style game mode, but they might not have feature parity with the original Minecraft. But if what you're looking for is better engine optimization and mod support, then this might do it for you.
@@Baustakar That would never happen though, its not as simple as just "getting the same mods" can't copy paste like that. Literally every single function a mod uses, would have to be recoded to work, if its even possible to have them work in the new framework (which it most likely isn't). The only reason Minecraft is still being played so much today, is because how easy it is to mod (at least the java version), and java is the reason performance is shit.
He sold Minecraft for 2.5 billion dollars and went on to become unhappy, having nothing left to strive for and no one to spend time with. The man has finally discovered something to do for himself. Bravo.
Minecraft is used as more of a base like Gmod though. You mod the hell out of it and turn it into whatever game you want from an adventure story, to a factory sim, to even Pokemon. I don't know what you could do with a sequel at this point that would make people want it over the original.
Kinda hard to mod a game that may no longer exist. Just you wait, if I know Microsoft they are just itching to delete Java edition and have everyone use bedrock and the coin market.
Removing feature creep and bloat for one. Every update microsoft adds another half baked idea. Microsoft also pushing the microsoft ecosystem for servers & transactions every year.
Minecraft has been in dire need of some sort of progression system for years now. The fact that you can start a new game and have the best equipment in the game and ready to fight the end boss within a half hour has always bothered me about it.
Seems over a decade ago I saw his already in the works "next game" was like Minecraft but has more spherical elements. People are already forgetting he pretty much said something similar a long time ago or at least showcased a tech demo displaying as much.
@@Thorgon-Cross I mean microsoft can't really change the base game for java no more because if they do and make it better for the consumer then all the mods will be phucked and then that community will most likely get pissed which in turn will get the people who use those mods get pissed and a big loss to the company where they don't want to now work on it
@@abdullahbilal7268 This isn't true. Modern performance mods are widely compatible with other mods. Mojangsoft is just lazy and has a talent issue. They rather rake in the cash than fix anything.
@@uponeric36 valid response and yeah whatever I said is what they are using as an excuse to not update things like the end dimension which could be updated easily without disrupting the overworld or adding things that old players won't find unless they play a world for a while like I haven't found an allay in the new server I made after 5 to 6 years still after playing for a good amount of time
@@vincemarenger7122 it'd be relatively easy by making the OS track hardware and lock you out of programs, I mean they already do it for an OS (win 11), they could just make it more invasive and spread it to programs.

im skeptical personally, considering ALOT of minecraft's popularity is how you can customize it so freely with mods, and how a new game would likely require rewriting / transfering code, mod creators who have established themselves in minecraft would likely be hesitant to move, and as a result, stunt the growth of minecraft 2 alot, as people might not be open to the less mod heavy version
Notch became a billionaire, was hanging with celebrities, got depressed, divorced, went away for years and now wants to make minecraft 2. I would bet a lot of money he won't complete it.The George R R Martin of gaming.
He posted this on Twitter: "First I'd like for people to understand that my unfiltered vision isn't that different from what the team at mojang has kept evolving the game into. There's like what, four or five mob designs I think clash a bit, but like that april fools thing they did a while back that smallant beat was AMAZING. I'd just make more of the same stuff. But people are ok with all that and still insist they prefer my style, sure, I'd do that."
Considering what i heard about the code behind minecraft, what notch achieved was pioneering a great concept and enough of a game to support that concept and honestly, a great amount of luck. If he tries something different, which he very well still might, as he originally wanted some retro something or other, and only changed his mind due to a community poll. *I honestly don't see him succeeding.* Although i do wish him all the luck and good karma in the world. I remember hearing at some point that he wasn't doing too good emotionally after selling minecraft, so it is really nice to hear him happy about creating a new game.
Also a lot of his success with minecraft was based on stealing ideas from modders/community and not crediting... lots of the modders left cause of it, including the guy who made pistons. Honestly a lot more hype for Hytale.
Just keep in mind. Notch doesn't usually finish things. He's really a hobbyist programmer who happened to get lucky with Minecraft. He did push through on that one (with help), and it nearly destroyed him. $2.5 billion from Microsoft and a Beverly Hills mansion helped him land on his feet though.
Also a lot of his success with minecraft was based on stealing ideas from modders/community and not crediting... lots of the modders left cause of it, including the guy who made pistons.
a lot of people forget while notch started minecraft, Jeb honestly did all the heavy lifting after it starting getting popular and notch had money to offload actually working onto an employee. to my knowledge notch literally been shitposting and living a striking it rich for over a decade. if he wanted to create something he would of alredy had it out by now instead of announcing it, its a clear sign he burned thru all his cash he got from microsoft which he start off burning thru it probably didn't think oh shit this needs to last me more then a decade.
@@edwinve4112 Sorry, let's give him credit. For stealing tons of ideas from modders/community and not giving credit, and chasing those creators away from the game. The actual source of minecraft's success.
No microsoft involvement & current-year liabilities, and hopefully using an actually modern network API this time because it's not 2006 anymore. That's my two main hopes, but Steam would definitely also help alot yeah...
the notch story is so sad, he was a chill guy from sweden, i met him at dreamhack, he was great, then he sold the game, became a billionaire i believe, got this big, but empty house, and hosted selebrity parties while getting more and more isolated and depressed, downing alcohol and pills. i hope he makes a comback for his sake.
Notch is a legendary figure. Especially when I was a teen and the game had just come out. Man those early days were the best. Anyone remember Hamachi servers? I still have my old one saved somewhere...
I'm not sure if people are too busy throating Notch because he's "unhinged" or "based" but the dude didn't even finish his first game. He made tons of unkept promises for new features only to walk so many of them back. He caught lightning in a bottle, lost motivation, and then put out drastically fewer and fewer updates until eventually selling the IP to Microsoft. His studio also tried to make a second game, a digital card game called Scrolls/Caller's Bane, that crashed and burned. His track record for making a good game is not exactly good. Go in with the LOWEST of expectations.
@@The_Endless_Now Yah Jeb was also pretty bad. To me that shows that Notch lacks management abilities as well. Once again, I ask, did people forget that Notch got to where he was mostly on sheer luck?
Also a lot of minecraft's success came from him stealing community/modders ideas and not crediting or compensating them. Made a number of them leave in the old days.
Bro Microsoft is going to send a billion cease and desist letters lmao there ain’t NO WAY the dude they bought out for a billion is just allowed to now undercut them with a sequel.
Just remember that Notch isnt the guy who made the minecraft we have today, he was the head developer up until the 1.0 update, he merely came up with the incredible idea of a game, and executed it, I doubt his game would have a chance at competing with the minecraft we have now, thankfully though thats not the point
@@cleverman383I like everything till today. But very disappointed with Microsoft for all their bad stuffs. Though I have a question, how can you love beta? That dosen't have many blocks, mobs and structures! If you bought Minecraft to play Beta, my friend, there was a free website where you can play it.
MC 2 gonna be a 2D Asteroid looking game where you build on a plane and fight triangles, but the lore is gonna be deep, the gameplay exciting and the community access unrestricted. XD
@polishedmeat6399 I've been following him on Twitter for like 10 years, and he really seems like the type of guy who will make the game himself. He'll probably hire people to help, but I trust that its core will be made by Notch
@ Yeah, there is literally no other reason for him to make the game because it’s not like he needs the money. I trust that he is doing it because he is the one actually making it
Holy shit in their contract it said Microsoft couldn't make a Minecraft 2 but I dont think it said the same about Notch hence this. I believe it will be a good game however I don't think he can use a lot of the beloved features in Minecraft in the sequel. Even if he can use the stuff he made himself, there are still very significant updates made by MS that I can't play without, such as the Update Aquatic, Villagers update and Nether Update. If he can just add on to the game tho it's gonna be crazy because Mojang's target is mostly money but for Notch it's passion. Only arguments against the new updates being small were that they are free even after 15 years of the game being out and bc its a big Corp, every features has to go through a lot of people therefore delaying every single step. But if Notch works on it, both issues are solved
I’m not really on board. How would a Minecraft 2 even work? Minecraft’s style of gameplay, world and updates show anything that you could put in Minecraft 2 can be done in the first game. Kinda pointless 💀
the game doesn't sound like minecraft. its a voxel first person game that's a roguelike, if you know Rotmg it seems it will align more with that then endless mining simulator.
Look up Hytale. Basically Minecraft 2 that'll probably be releasing 2026, and is better in every way. Personally, I don't see Notch succeeding with a Minecraft 2. Guy isn't talented, he got lucky.
i think the thing that shocked me more was seeing GTA released in 2013. i could have fcking sworn it was released later than that. holy shit. and could have sworn minecraft was released earlier than 2009.... god time is just blending together at this point for me. fkc
I assume that “Minecraft 2” is going to take user-interface elements from “Rec Room” in which it becomes a game without Survival Mode, but it will only have Creative Mode and Online Mode. In Creative Mode, we build areas that we can save in our inventory and when we finished them, we publish them to the Online Mode-library and people can visit our created areas by looking them up in the search bar. Optionally, the visitors can leave a “like” on our area or add a “comment” to it. In Online Mode, we can optionally adjust our starter-dorm, adjust our character’s appearance and on our monitor, we can select areas that other creators have created. The point of this game is to either socially interact with other players online, enjoy the art of architecture that other players made, or enjoy building and publishing rooms.
Minecraft had only sold 15 million copies when Microsoft bought it, and now it has sold 300 million. A 20 times increase lets not pretend that it was perfect before and Microsoft just messed it up. Im still hopeful Notch can make a good game
Those numbers seem off for me, so I looked up on Wikipedia. 17 million on PC alone. 12 milion on Xbox 21 million on Mobile. Game was also released on PS3, but no sale numbers. Those are numbers for 2014 I found on Wikipedia. The 300 million is for all platforms. And it took a lot of time to achieve that, as 100m was sold in 2019, which means in first 10 years of Minecraft existence, in first 5 years Notch made at least 40% of that number.
Your numbers are off a bit, MC had sold 50million copies prior to the 2014 acquisition, so a 6x increase. But your point still stands. It was selling an average of 10 million copies per year prior to the acquisition, and 25 million per year after that. Those numbers don’t really indicate that Microsoft “messed it up”.
Of all the "before GTA 6" I've heard, this might be the most unexpected

God Willing.

Y did private servers die out? Cos of Microsoft?
@@anonisnoone6125 Not really. Microsoft have slowly been trying to push the Bedrock version (crossplay varient) out a lot more heavier than the original java version. Servers dying out has mainly been due to two main factors, one being the EULA making it so servers cannot distribute and sell commands or items that give an advantage to a user and the second one being that most servers now focus on competitive style game-modes that reset monthly or every 3 months etc so unless you're already in a faction/team of some sorts, you'll never be able to settle down and enjoy the multiplayer aspect.
That being said, there are of course servers out there that respect the EULA, are chilled and have a friendly player base but if there's one thing I know, they're washed off the face of publicity from the majority of what I mentioned so those who are hopping on server to server to seek somewhere to stick around don't tend to stay long enough because more often than not, it's fair to say people can judge a server like a book just by seeing the automated money hungry (go to /store) announcements, the spawn (crate area for premium keys) and colourful rank tags in TAB and chat.
Minecraft was kinda sorta lightning in a bottle situation, it's almost impossible to pull that kind of stuff twice.

Who needs Minecraft 2? Let Notch make Chess 2. People have been waiting way too long for that sequel.
He has the money, the resources and connections to make whatever game he wants. The only thing that could hold him back is if he signs to a studio and they put him one the clock.
Why would he, though? Usually devs join publishers to get either funding or the entire marketing spiel. He doesn't need either.
The dude still has that Microsoft money, I'm sure he's not worried at all about funding
The only thing that can hold him back is himself. I'm not convinced that he has any concrete ideas on what Minecraft 2 should actually be and he's too busy posting nonsense on Twitter to make anything within a reasonable time frame.
I mean, the only thing holding him back is copyright and trademark laws, and I really don't think he wants to engage in a massive legal battle with Microsoft so they can protect THEIR intellectual property.

There was a time after minecraft took off, that Notch was working on a space game called 0x10c, with the premise being that you wake up from cryo-sleep on a ship that is controlled entirely through a 16bit computer, that would be emulated within the game. The idea was the player would need to write code (or copy from others) that would control the ship, or even write little 16bit game codes so you could play totally-not-tetris inside your ancient space computer game.
I wish he'd made that, because it sounded so friggin cool.

That sounds like a game with very limited playerbase.
@@PadaV4 And...? What's the problem with appealing to a niche audience?
We were meant to get a proper spiritual successor to Minecraft years ago called Hytale. The trailer dropped over 6 years ago and got 61 million views; the developers freaked out and delayed the game by a few years so that they could make something that would live up to the hype of 61 million people, but then the studio, Hypixel Studios, got bought by Riot Games, and it all went downhill. They have a website where, once upon a time, they posted blogs and development updates about once a month, but that quickly stopped, and now they post maybe once a year to just tell people that Hypixel Studios is not dead and the game is still being worked on, but that's about it; all the hype of 6 years ago is now gone, and the game is most likely never going to come out.
And it would probably be of shite value if it is still produced by riot games
Doesn't look that good tbh.
@@ano_nym This is pretty much where I'm at, partially as a product of time. If Hytale came out today in the form that was promised, it'd feel a bit dated.

DOA, anything notch thinks of is already a mod for Minecraft.
This is why Bethesda blatantly said ES6 will be a disappointment to the fans, because the modding community is so large theres zero aspect that hasent been already thought of as far as change goes.
Bethesda dug their own grave there, almost like if you let someone else do your job for you, and they do it really well, nobody will need you to do your job anymore.
Maybe if anybody had faith in Bethesda to make higher quality content than the modders for their games, people would be less disappointed, hmmmm
There's tremendous underrated value in something being the intended experience. I don't like mods.
several great modcommunity games got successful next versions. for es6 they literally just need to make the same thing as they did with skyrim, improved graphics, better potential for mods and good enough basegame so it is sold in large enough numbers. of course with their last few attempts the chance for that is very slim and they will probably bake in way too many monetization option to the base game to make it shit. they probably would be better off with a free to play route and hope they can sell enough horse armor and other stuff to gain it back.

That dosen't have many blocks, mobs and structures!
If you bought Minecraft to play Beta, my friend, there was a free website where you can play it.
@@cleverman383 1.8.9 was my favourite Minecraft version
@@cleverman383 Oh, look, a man blinded by nostalgia.
Could it compete with Minecraft? Not at this point. But all he has to do is listen to his players and he could make a pretty strong game.
MC 2 gonna be a 2D Asteroid looking game where you build on a plane and fight triangles, but the lore is gonna be deep, the gameplay exciting and the community access unrestricted. XD
I hope he hires some more devs than Mojang with his 1,2 billion dollars
He probably can do it alone. He did it with minecraft in the beginning too. He is also super super rich so he can take as long as he wants to.
@@benhavis2474 hes definitely hiring someone. that man probably didnt touch code for years. hes not gonna waste his time on a game.
@polishedmeat6399 I've been following him on Twitter for like 10 years, and he really seems like the type of guy who will make the game himself. He'll probably hire people to help, but I trust that its core will be made by Notch
@polishedmeat6399 Didn't he just said he find a spark in making games again? I'm sure part of that is programming
@ Yeah, there is literally no other reason for him to make the game because it’s not like he needs the money. I trust that he is doing it because he is the one actually making it
Holy shit in their contract it said Microsoft couldn't make a Minecraft 2 but I dont think it said the same about Notch hence this. I believe it will be a good game however I don't think he can use a lot of the beloved features in Minecraft in the sequel. Even if he can use the stuff he made himself, there are still very significant updates made by MS that I can't play without, such as the Update Aquatic, Villagers update and Nether Update. If he can just add on to the game tho it's gonna be crazy because Mojang's target is mostly money but for Notch it's passion. Only arguments against the new updates being small were that they are free even after 15 years of the game being out and bc its a big Corp, every features has to go through a lot of people therefore delaying every single step. But if Notch works on it, both issues are solved
how the HELL are we getting minecraft 2 before GTAIV?!!
Idk
I’m not really on board. How would a Minecraft 2 even work? Minecraft’s style of gameplay, world and updates show anything that you could put in Minecraft 2 can be done in the first game. Kinda pointless 💀
He does not own the first game anymore
the game doesn't sound like minecraft. its a voxel first person game that's a roguelike, if you know Rotmg it seems it will align more with that then endless mining simulator.
@@tjgdddfcn I know that; still doesn’t make sense as to why we need a second rendition of the game
Look up Hytale. Basically Minecraft 2 that'll probably be releasing 2026, and is better in every way. Personally, I don't see Notch succeeding with a Minecraft 2. Guy isn't talented, he got lucky.
@@SleepyStreak Hytale isn't coming riot games canceled it.
i think the thing that shocked me more was seeing GTA released in 2013. i could have fcking sworn it was released later than that. holy shit. and could have sworn minecraft was released earlier than 2009.... god time is just blending together at this point for me. fkc
It was released later on most platforms. It was only PS3 and 360 originally
I assume that “Minecraft 2” is going to take user-interface elements from “Rec Room” in which it becomes a game without Survival Mode, but it will only have Creative Mode and Online Mode. In Creative Mode, we build areas that we can save in our inventory and when we finished them, we publish them to the Online Mode-library and people can visit our created areas by looking them up in the search bar. Optionally, the visitors can leave a “like” on our area or add a “comment” to it. In Online Mode, we can optionally adjust our starter-dorm, adjust our character’s appearance and on our monitor, we can select areas that other creators have created. The point of this game is to either socially interact with other players online, enjoy the art of architecture that other players made, or enjoy building and publishing rooms.
You are looking better & better with each new day.
Bless your heart😁🔥⤵️
So vertical slabs?!
Watch that’s the ONLY new feature lmao
No way. Half slabs were his biggest regret. He hated them.
Why bro keep lifting his eyebrows up so much 💀💀💀
He's kicking it up a notch.
Minecraft had only sold 15 million copies when Microsoft bought it, and now it has sold 300 million. A 20 times increase lets not pretend that it was perfect before and Microsoft just messed it up.
Im still hopeful Notch can make a good game
Those numbers seem off for me, so I looked up on Wikipedia.
17 million on PC alone.
12 milion on Xbox
21 million on Mobile.
Game was also released on PS3, but no sale numbers.
Those are numbers for 2014 I found on Wikipedia.
The 300 million is for all platforms.
And it took a lot of time to achieve that, as 100m was sold in 2019, which means in first 10 years of Minecraft existence, in first 5 years Notch made at least 40% of that number.
Let's also not forget that Notch did not instantly leave.
Your numbers are off a bit, MC had sold 50million copies prior to the 2014 acquisition, so a 6x increase. But your point still stands. It was selling an average of 10 million copies per year prior to the acquisition, and 25 million per year after that. Those numbers don’t really indicate that Microsoft “messed it up”.
and now Minecraft is getting sued - make of that what you will.
