I’m a programmer and while I am not as familiarized with Minecraft dev I do think this *should* be feasible for a AAA studio with the most successful game in the world, Mojang puts an artificial development barrier on themselves by thinking what fits the game for months on end because of their sometimes illogical invisible rules such as “real life mobs can’t be hostile. I feel that if you gave Re-Logic a shot at a minecraft update (with the necessary knowledge) they would do a much better job not only concept-wise but also mechanically. Take for example the Deep Dark, it took 2 YEARS to make it and while its an awesome addition, did it really needed to take 2 years? the loot isn’t even worth the risk at all, great concept but gameplay wise it adds almost nothing to the gameplay loop.

The “Wild Update” should have been a thorough rehaul of all the outdated overworld biomes that haven’t been touched in a decade. There is no valid reason to keep the old swamps, old birch forests, old deserts and old savannahs in the game as they are.

I think there is a lot of reasons to keep old biomes, especially with the Swamp, given that it's wetlands terrain, unique dirt colors, but relatively clear and open treeline give make a biome that feels somewhat higher difficulty to traverse than a normal biome, but also isn't nearly as crowded and difficult to traverse as the Mangrove Swamp, allowing new players to feel like they can still live within a swamp, and also allows players to actually obtain slime. The old swamp provides opportunities that the Mangrove swamp could not. On the other hand, I definitely agree that the biome needs an update still, they didn’t really address any of the swamps problems, (Like the really ugly oak trees) and instead just created a new biome

the chat report system isnt entirely mojangs fault. i'm 100% sure that microsoft is making them add it, cause i think if they were gonna add a chat report system they would've done it years ago.

It would be one thing if Mojang didn't include one or two things from the concept art in the final release, like if the fallen trees didn't have hollow logs or something. I think everyone gets that not everything in concept art will translate into a specific feature and that artistic liberties are sometimes taken. But the concept art of the Birch Forest was a stand in for a much larger concept and set the expectation that a large part of the Wild Update would be about atmospheric and immersive elements. We get that they were purposefully vague about what that would mean (especially given what had just recently happened with Caves & Cliffs), but the implication was there that this was going to be the second half of the update and that the Mangrove Swamp was just part of that. The bigger issue is how they announced that this wasn't coming to 1.19. They should have a) been more timely in the announcement that this wasn't coming in 1.19, b) been more explicit as to whether these features are canceled forever or pushed to a future update, and c) not put it on the community for having high expectations like it was our fault for being excited for immersive elements. The Mojang exec they had deliver the message missed the mark entirely, and leaving it "we've stopped working on these features" leaves more questions than answers.

Yes, that is true. Yet they also kind of...not really achieved what they told us they're going to so with the wild update. It isn't wild enough, ancient cities and the deep dark, and the mangrove swamps are as rare as ####, there are only 4 mobs added all of which are rare.

I agree with the rhetoric of the question, "What happened to Minecraft after 1.16?" I first got Java Edition prior to 1.16, and I remember the anticipation of the Nether update, and I remember excitedly going into my Nether and exploring the new biomes and such. I agree with your analysis that 1.16 was a well-prepared product and was equally well-received. And for having been a first time Java player coming off of a very leisurely experience on Pocket Edition, I honestly felt like I had time to enjoy that very first world I made before putting it through a major update (1.16). Now, it just feels like everything is rushed and players don't have time to enjoy their worlds between updates. It may sound silly, but I even get concerned about how many new chunks I want to load in an existing world; if mammoth updates keep dropping that overhaul world generation and biome generation, casual players like myself (that don't devote the grinding hours that Minecraft content creators do to the game) find themselves in a conundrum of whether they want to keep investing in their existing world or start a new one to experience the whole of the game without having to travel thousands of blocks away. I know everyone plays differently, but this is my take on it. I'd be curious if other's share this sentiment or would have a different perspective.

I completely agree! I think that’s part of why I’ve not been playing minecraft as fervently as I had in the past. I would love to devote my time to one world but I fear coming updates in a way.

I just hope minecraft doesn't get killed by corporate greed like roblox has.

If they said at minecon "in the next few years we want to have most of the overworld biomes overhauled, whilst in this update we are focusing on the swamp biome here is some concept art of what we are looking to do with other biomes in the near future"

Commenting because I see you read recent comments and reply. As much as I'd love to see them bring back Archeology, I know that this is a feature which is not really awaited by the majority of the community. That being said it would be better to get a small update which everyone likes. I have been thinking about this whole Mojang overpromise underdeliver issue for a while. This was never seen before and it was a unique problem only for this update. I know and I can understand that some updates are more challenging and difficult the others, this one being the hardest for them. I'm happy that you mentioned that they've uploaded videos like announcing the split of caves & cliffs (partly because now I don't have to explain it). We've been told it's hard for them and while it was disappointing news the community was supportive and understood their situation. The cave generation codes have been unchanged for years, ofc it was hard to rewrite it. That being said, I personally have the patience to wait for updates. But it's their recent transparency, dishonesty and lack of communication what saddens and enrages me. Like we know it's embarassing for them, and even more so if they acknowledge how messed up this got, but it'll get only worse the more they stay silent about it as the community will feel like it's getting ghosted by the devs. Once again, Mojang did not run into delivery problems like this before and we could say they just didn't know how to handle this. Hopefully they'll learn from this.

Yessir, I read every single comment! I think that's a great point, the more that I think about it, the more I realize Mojang isn't being upfront with us, like you said. Even thinking about the timeline of events. They release Minecraft Live in October, one day later there's posts on reddit about Fireflies being poisonous to frogs, and then they announce that they're removing fireflies a full 7 months later? That doesn't really add up for me. It feels like they overpromised and needed to do something to get the update out the door in a reasonable amount of time. I know people joke about "they're just 2 pixels" but when you think about it, they need to add spawning mechanics, interactions with the frogs, flight patterns, performance implications since entities cause lag in Minecraft, making sure it works across all versions of the game, and probably more things I'm not even aware of. Still, Minecraft is a multibillion dollar IP, you'd think something like this wouldn't be a problem for Mojang and Microsoft.

Unfortunately considering the disaster that is chat reporting, things only appear to be getting worse. The rift between the community and developers only seems to be widening from here and sadly I think there will be a permanent animosity now, even if they listen and fix things up. And if they don't, well, then who even knows what the end result will be...

"Don't let ambitions overcome you, overcome your excitement about it and plan on what or what not to plan."

Even the nether update had so.e unfulfilled promises. They said that there would be more biomes then the ones shown at Minecraft Live then later when asked about it they called the fans greedy for asking for more. That was the point when I realized something was wrong.

Another thing with 1.18 is the update was amazing. The new gen is fantastic and it makes sense it took too long. 1.19 had lot of miscommunications and the birch forest thing was a bit poorly handled. Blaming the community was not the best move, hence the backlash.

This aged like fine wine

They should also take an update year just to work on under the hood stuff, more efficient code, multithreading, and other stuff like that.

Instead of putting effort into features they teased that got people excited, they pulled them and instead implemented censorship that no one wanted.

They also immediately showed concept art of the swamp which DID get updated RIGHT after the birch forest. It's not like they did anything wrong, but it's very reasonable to think it was going to be in the update.

Now there's chat report which can get you banned from using multiplayer. Like wtf that can be abused so much. It should be on the owner and staffs of the server to decide on the rules. The only way that this could be resolved is to get rid of it completely or change it. This is my suggestions: ▪︎Only ban people from the server that they were reported on. ▪︎Make the ban reversible by the server staffs and owner. ▪︎Add a strike system. ▪︎Inform the owner and staff members. ▪︎Make it possible for the owner to change the rules. ▪︎Let the owner choose to have chat report on their server or not. This will improve chat report and give the server owners a choice.

Mojang's problem is that Microsoft is pushing them to keep building hype, no matter how many times they trip and stumble and need a moment to breathe. Mojang needs to just chloroform the Microsoft rep that's keeping an eye on them, and take a moment to clean up the mess

I feel Mojang should really take their time on 1.20 put missing items from previous updates and add a decent amount of new items that make the game more exciting again

and here we go, after the chat reporting update none of this is even relevant as the devs have completely lost the community

I just want to say this right now before anything happens in 1.20. Which is Mojang promised that they will be bringing in 2 updates per year. 1 big and 1 small. 1.19 is technically a big update, which means do not expect anything big for 1.20 since that is an expected release sometime this December which will mainly be all about bug fixes and probably one small feature getting added. They're next major update should be 1.21 so pleaaase guys do not get angry if 1.20 is small.

But I'm sure not everyone feels that way. I sympathize with Mojang, it's always tough being in a situation where you can't make everyone happy.

I just don't care at Mojang anymore, I rely on mods and data packs to make Minecraft better. Because A full developer team can't compete against one random modder online apparently.

I honestly think that Mojang discovered the potential of the Warden was far greater than they first realized. Moving things into another update. We are still getting the content just at a later date and more in-depth and interesting. If they were an indie developer this would be okay, but because they're a big company they're not allowed to change their mind. I think the fireflies being removed is a little annoying considering they've added things without functionality, later adding a purpose in a future update. I think they should reassess their announcement strategies and allow fans to lower their expectations, leaving room for more realistic updates.

Hah, funny, back when this video was made, people thought Mojang THEN was bad. I guess we didn't know just how bad things could get lol. They went from being lazy with updates to ruining villager trades, to deleting old accounts, to even more scummy business practices, to getting EVEN MORE lazy with updates. Putting a tight leash on how everyone plays Minecraft while lecturing about "player freedom" and "play the game your way" is somehow both ironically hilarious and deeply depressing. You know, when I was little (back in 2012, yes it's been THAT long I feel old lmao) I wanted to work for Mojang on a game that I loved. I've poured thousands upon thousands of hours into this game, so seeing this studio I used to love fall so far from grace really hurts. I guess it's the equivalent of "man, you used to be cool. What happened?" For videogames. It's 4:30 AM, I'm sad, I have stuff to do tomorrow, and I've just wasted time writing this. Take care everyone, thanks for reading.

Good argument, however mojang is a multi-billion dollar company, and your telling me they can barely push out an update in a year?

1.20 should be the combat update. It's been in development for at least 3 years and since caves an cliffs was announced, they haven't updated the combat snapshots.

I disagree (with the shocking part). It was a major red flag when they had to split the update in half because they promised so much on so many features and rushed realese. They also hyped up their ‘’concept update’’

It's so simple. All they have to do is only show what they 100% know they can finish. Much better to under promise and over deliver than to continually over promise and under deliver like they have since the nether update

Until yesterday I would 100% agree with you, but now, seeing as Mojnag just added ban feature that is just objectivly bad, I don't think their goal is to make the community happy, Microsoft took 100% lead of them and they are trying at all cost to delete the Java edition. Think about it. Who is going to be more upset about Mojang not keeping up with promises, average Bedrock player or Java player? Of course Java player since the other one doesn't probably know what Minecon is. Who is going to be more angry about the ban feature thing? Of course Java player since on Bedrock there is much more control rn and this change wouldn't be as dramatic as it is on Java edition. The cherry on top is that Mojang gave everyone for free the Bedrock edition which is at least veeery sus, since no corporation would do that for no reason or just because they feel bad about what happened before, it's really a lot of money, more than 1/4 of their ever earned income. The surely want to kill the Java edition and force everyone to play only on Bedrock...

you were 2 months early

but it's may I feel like the could've worked on the wild update a little longer.

I have been saying this for YEARS ever since the first Biome vote. Update all the biomes first, if needbe update 1 or 2 at a time.

I think the reason they keep a "vote" is not because they can't update anything, but they want something that community decides. Although in this case, they did implay they will update everything eventually in biomes(not so much mobs)

1.20 should just be Bundles and focusing on improving game performance, which really took a hit with the increase in height and depth of the world in 1.18. If there's time, they could put the fireflies in since that would probably make a lot of people happy.

I don’t mind the small update then big update like buzzy bees and nether update but the updates where they show all this cool stuff and don’t deliver is what’s sad. I think they could have a great rythym of small update then big update. For example, working on a biome that lost then working on the end

i think mojang needs to put out less updates. the modding community isn't able to settle on a version right now that isn't abt 1.12 or 1.16 because they keep pushing out these updates, and honestly, it's a bad sign for the modding community to only stick to one or two updates or have to add in newer content in their mods because they can't update to a newer version since mojang keeps pushing out updates and changing up the code and whatnot. smaller updates would also be nice, but at this point i think it'd be better for them to do like. one big update every two years or something.

The ambiance update would be dope honestly!

I think a removed features update would be best, features like fireflies, wax blocks, crystallized honey, or the killer rabbit would be cool. Maybe some features that were considered but never added, like rubies, dyed planks, or brick pyramids would also be nice additions. Or work on adding stuff exclusive to java to bedrock and stuff exclusive to bedrock to java. Like sweeping edge, illusioners, or spectral arrows to bedrock or baby squids, big salmon, or potions of decay on java. An update like that could fix this problem

They should have pushed concept art with fanart section later. It would have been less painful for everyone. I'm just saying.

No no, splitting an update is not an appropriate way to deal with having put too much on their plate. Pushing BACK the update is what should have been done. Doing a Part 1 and Part 2 is really lame, leaves 1.17 as the update no one will EVER play again, and leaves the fanbase more divided than an update delay.

I actually made a community suggestion for a lighting update a while back. It just needs voted on so Mojang can take it easy. It makes it so glowing and pulsing can happen. It makes it so you have colored lights ect.

I actually really liked this video. Very interesting. It's nice to hear it from the perspective of a person who's worked in a similar industry as Mojang. I see a lot of people attacking Mojang for this and it honestly makes me sad.🙁 I get that they should've not shown things that they may not add, but they don't deserve the hate. I definitely agree that doing neat and small updates would be a good idea and it will give them a break as well especially since they've been working hard through this Pandemic. I think doing something like a Minecraft Live Mini could be a stream where they announce smaller bite sized updates. I think that would be cool. Also, the Magma cube features I guess was so we can got frog lights which I believe the community wanted something like it and Mojang was trying to find a use for frogs at the time so they combined the two features into one. 🙂

"Concept art isnt a commitment" then maybe don't show it in the reveal of all the features in the next update instead of blaming players for expecting to much
