You could theoretically make a moon base world, or one where you live as a mob by burning in the sun and needing to sleep during the day. There's so many possibilities I love it

0:55 "An entire development studio of hundreds of people and they all just what, rub this in our faces and have agreed to create this snapshot to do so?" I mean... it's not the first time they've done it. The 2020 April Fools Update was arguably better than the Caves & Cliffs, Wild, and Trails & Tales Updates combined. It showed that Mojang 'could' easily implement a lot of things that a lot of the player base was asking for, but didn't. And now, the 2023 April Fools Update is basically bringing up those old feelings again. It's basically a more refined version of the things people saw and wanted three years ago... but again, relegated to an update that will never see patches, or bug fixes, or have any degree of compatibility with future updates. I don't think anyone really cared too much about the Sniffer, or Camels, or Dig Sites. To me they feel like a bunch of things thrown together to bulk out an otherwise lackluster update. Because, let's be honest; when more people are excited about the April Fools update than the upcoming update to the main game, you're missing the mark somewhere.

Why you'd get an end rod drop AND it would instantly spawn another end rod Needless to say, my build was lit with end rods and lighting up an explored dark oak forest was as easy as periodically breaking a log to create a light source

I can say once they polish and balance a lot of things, so many of these ideas are amazing!

I desprately want the transform ability in game as a datapack creator. The possibilities o_0

Been releasing free updates since I was in preschool, has consistently released new updates each year, and for less than 30 dollars. Not to mention not a single gameplay feature has made the game detrimentally worse other than the one ghost stingray that the players voted for themselves. We are perhaps the most spoiled community on the planet. I'm almost jealous of game communities like Terraria's that have a community that enjoys the base game as much as they do mods without bullying the developers. Edit: adding it here instead so hopefully more people will see it. Minecraft is no longer a game made by an indie studio. Some will hold that against them for why they should be making more each update, but it is a miracle they are still going. More developers puts more strain on the development cycle, meaning from pitch, to concept art, to modeling, to play testing, to texturing, to animating, to snapshot release, to bug fixes, to merchandizing all has a team behind it. People complain about the marketplace because microtransactions, but that is how they make most of their money, and if they didn't have merchandise or the marketplace, they probably make each update a paid dlc to fill their quota. Take one look at gamefreak, and you can see how an indie studio going big can degrade the quality of the gameplay. Minecraft is also 3d, run on java, and the best selling game in the world. Special care has to be taken to keep up the quality of the updates, and that is evident with HOW MUCH FRICKIN CONCEPT ART THERE IS.

I would agree if it wasn't for the fact that mojang clearly could add some of the features into the game if they wanted to. Vertical slabs is no different from normal slabs from a technical perspective, they're just rotated differently. Maybe there could be one or two extremely rare edge cases but not to mention the negligible effect they would have, they'd probably get fixed before anyone really finds out. Movable tile entities is already in bedrock, so there is absolutely no reason why they can't add that to java as well if they have the tech for it (sure there would be bugs, but considering how huge of an improvement movable tile entities would be it's easily worth sacrificing some development time to fix those bugs) not to mention they keep talking about wanting parity. Those are just two examples, but I can understand why most of the snapshot's features would never make it to vanilla (for obvious reasons) but I honestly am distraught at the thought that this april fools update might mean that these features are just that, a joke, and will thus never be taken seriously and added to the game. Part of me hopes that this snapshot is a test run to see how the community receives the features and how buggy and game breaking they are, but we'll have to wait and see to find out what Mojang's thoughts are.

0:29 Looks like you forgot to filter out the bots...

I think you misunderstood what the issue actually is; Yes these features were made out of jokes, yes they were thrown in without much considerations or balance, yes they are not fully fleshed out BUT it feels like so many of them could still very well be implemented into the game if not as "main content" then at least like some fun game rules and such, like the lava you have shown in 12:16 for eXample, it very much could just be in a subcategory of gamerules named FUN and all of them would be turned off by default. Things like block placer and destroy could be just in creative inventory or only for Server Operators to find more applications for them as the game develops. Locking these features behind snapshot seems like an unnecessary handicap in my opinion and doing it the way I mentioned above would just result in like effectively more testing for them. Say if the eXample of the block placers people will find huge applications for them mojang could once a while tweak their properties and check again on how community utilizes them and if they would be a good addition or not. Something like that animated copper thing would be very fun to see applied naturally in the game with objects relevant to the game like imagine if the "portal" in the Ancient City was actually a portal but they would animate it's opening or something like they did with the copper thing from the moon. Or just have them make a few simple presets people could just see and come up with, like an inspiration or something. The point being they made all of this as a joke, but I feel like there is so much potential here going to waste, just as a joke like yeah it does seem ridiculus to have them all at once thrown together thoughtlessly, but if you look at them one by one it just feels like "why not give them a try, worst they could do is say, sorry this doesn't work out, not going into standard game experience."

Some jokes were implemented in the game, like coal blocks, tinted glass or horses.

@@emilelesaffre Yeah, but this like limits people's applications of it. Say you were to put all of this behind like "FUN" settings off by default independent of the version of the game you could try these features in any version. It's just that this feels more like "You went to all the effort putting all of this in, why not just leave it in as optional content anyways?"

Not the spam inappropriate comment bots being featured in the video 💀 0:32

5:45 “Grian? Is the moon big?”

Xisuma really showed some of those comments at 0:28 instead of censoring/deleting them lol

The void potion also takes all of your effects away and adds it to the potion.

Get a bunch of creepers in a box, put a cat in the box with them and turn it into a creeper so It looks like the creepers are avoiding this one creeper.

X, thank you for taking the time to address the catasrophising and conclusion-jumping at the start of the video. It's like a breath of fresh air. I really appreciate it.

i love the pink floyd reference! thank you for this video! loved it! ❤

You need to watchout for those A.I spam bots, the classic half nude girl in the pic, commenting something that seems legit because it gathers data from the comments and just copies/writes its own. Could be bordering on breaking terms showing them on video. Not that most people will mind I'm sure lol.

it should be on youtube honestly, it is their platform

I really want the copper meshy things that spawn from the rovers

There are SO many things here that would be so cool to see in the vanilla game, really

Some of my other favourite things of the April Fools update are that cobble stone, smooth stone, and basalt generators now produce a random block. Togehter with the pickaxe block, it means you can farm the oddest blocks. And also, villager trading now can accept random items rather than emeralds. That can make trading easier, but it can also make it far more difficult.

For the pickaxe block, I think it should have a slot to put a pickaxe. Each time the block is used, the pickaxe loses the same durability that it would if it were used manually, and it can only mine things that you could mine by holding the same pick (so no mining bedrock). When the pick breaks, you have to replace it for the block to work again. That seems like it would solve the balance issues. For automation, you could have a hopper above the block, ready to replace a broken pickaxe with a new one - you'd just have to craft some extra pickaxes first and put them in the hopper. Edit: Maybe there could also be additional pickaxe slots in the block itself. That would make things like the tunnel borer in this video easier to build and more compact than if you had to set up hoppers for each pickaxe block.

That would make it a block entity and this unpushable. Good idea but only if they figure out pushable tile entities (which I guess they are working on considering it's in this snapshot too)

@@picleus Oh, yeah. Hadn't considered that. Maybe we'll get both the pickaxe block and pushable tile entities in a non-April Fools' Day release someday.

6:38 The concrete connecting them

I really hope some of this stuff sticks around in future updates. even the silly stuff like lava sponges and players are undead would be good to have as gamerules that we can toggle, even if they're not part of the core gameplay experience.

wouldnt be the first time mojang did this... as they said it themselves: "autocrafting doesnt fit our artistic vision, we dont want people to autocraft iron armor" (lol). i still hope they see their folly and add many things from carpet, tweakeroo and vanilla tweaks (like universal dying, crafting table hopper support, moveable tile entities and renewable sand)

this is possibly cooler than 20w14infinite. I love some of the technical changes, and as a mod developer i SERIOUSLY hope that alot of the internal changes become a part of the game, even if it needs a bit of tweaking for the full game. I love it.

Also lets start with making the portal in the ancient city usefull for something 🐼

insane, xisuma really hit the cleanest griddy I have ever seen in my lige

Undead + Sleeping during day is just a vampire gameplay experience

Honestly, the so many people already thought the Aether was already in the game, would make perfect sense for them to just add it

heh, what a nice cheese house 8:36

14:23 did you forget to turn off the undead player rule? You probably didn’t. I don’t know why you’re on fire

6:00 The maximum size moon gives me some serious Hermitcraft season 8 flashbacks

5:30 I guess you need to breathe (in the air)

To be fair, considering the amount of requests that we made, it's no wonder why people feel like their kinda mocking us, like, there's a lot of features that we want in this update, for example, I'd love all of these redstone updates, mumbo would lose his mind, and it feels like just a massive QOL of redstone, however, it doesn't matter because it's just an april fools update.

As a lot of other people in this comment section have already said, it being in an April fool's update doesn't mean it doesn't matter or won't be implemented into the game in a better way. A lot of features from April fool's updates have made their way into the base game in better more thought out and refined ways

You have to love this update, there is just so many fun little things

I think the teapot shaped earth is a reference to the concept of Russell's teapot.

hey x, at the start were you show the comments with pfp images that kids shouldnt see. idk if you noticed but im just letting you know just in case you dont want that kind of stuff in your video.

The lava one is a reference to a really early version of minecraft where lava and water behaved like this xD

I get the feeling this snapshot is more of a play testing for various features to see what the community resonates with the most. Sure there are lots of things that people want but they can't add all these features at once. Data they collect from this snapshot could help Mojang to know which features to focus on first for upcoming updates.

This is so amazing, I love this update even more, that real ones

No, I whole heartedly believe they are mocking us, they put features in that would be amazing in the game permanently but they won't add because some of these features would be either cool additions to the game or convenient and we all know mojang hates things that are convenient or cool. Yeah, they do add some cool things but emphasis on some. Like Mojang has literal millions of testers at their fingertips so they could add whatever they/we want and have years worth of testing and feedback in days but instead they add next to nothing every update and more often than not the things are useless or inconvenient in some way.
