@@Killerbee4712nah he’s right. I’ve never felt that way about any mob or update from the beginning of the game (other than the initial texture changes) and I usually roll my eyes at stuff like this, as it was prominent for no reason during 1.16 with people wanting the nether to stay god awful for whatever reason. The sniffer is completely different to anything else in a strange way. Its animations are too jumpy and fluid for the game. Its texture is kinda gross and really overdone. Its model could work, but its size is so awkward, like they didn’t want a massive mob but kept the massive mob look. Not to mention the sniffers ears, which are arguably my least favorite part of any mob design. They don’t fit whatsoever. They could make him bigger, make his textures simpler and his colors more coherent. Then they can fix his animations to be more in line with other mobs, and fix his ugly ass head while they are at it. They are clearly pushing their new art style and not just making higher quality mobs (warden is a great example when compared to old mobs in animations) and while I usually overlook it the sniffer way oversteps it’s boundaries in a bad way

@@Killerbee4712 I get super off topic and stuff in this I think, I talk a lot about the game design rather than the art direction. But the game is definitely losing its focus on what it even wants to be anymore. The nether, and the end, alongside the wither. What do they have in common? They are all built upon the design philosophy of the overworld being your sandbox, your playground. A place that was untouched from any outside force, and was generally very vanilla. You have your trees, your stone, your ores. This is built on the logic that you, as the player, would create your own world. Then, at your own will, bring worlds from other dimensions into your own. And now, The Deep Dark, and the 1.16.5 Nether update. What did they do? These updates brought forth something that breaks that game design philosophy. It merges the dimensions, the dimensions that were once unique are now tarnished. There are trees, in the Nether, a place that was once a desolate, vast, empty chasm of void with nothing to show for it. Now it has vegetation, a once unique feature of the Overworld. It is no longer inhospitable. It also has overworld "Ruined Portals", ruining any discovery when it comes to building your own nether portal as you are no longer the only person who's having influence on the world. There were others who already did that. You could argue, " Don't villagers also build their own stuff? " Villagers are actually one of the few beings in the game that are capable of intelligence. But they do not have any signs of having been to the nether. Thus, leaving them tied to the overworld. The same goes for Pillagers. They are very vanilla. The Deep Dark took it one step further, merging dimensions together into the overworld. Something that is unavoidable, and is completely out of the ordinary for any other minecraft feature present in the game already. You cannot stop this. It is always ever present in your world ever since it was included in its release, and it is pretty much confirmed that they came from another dimension. This was not in your control. Any sense of discovery, any sense of progression, any sense of builiding your world how you wanted it is now gone as the game forces its own buildings onto you. There's no need to ever go underground anymore. You could stay above ground for all you want, and it does not encourage you to go underground to find obsidian. The Nether Portal ruins are enough. There is no need to go into the Nether unless you want to fight the Wither. That is the Nether's boss. The Wither. You are intended to fight it in the Nether, but the game gives you freedom to fight it in the overworld, or end. There is no need to go into the deep dark. In fact, it's actively going against the player, encouraging them to stay away from the deep dark instead of exploring it because of how aggressive of an environment it has become. The deep dark could have been something great. It could have been a vast, dying colony with a portal that you could have opened up to a new realm, a new dimension, a new possible "ending" outcome by killing a boss in the Deep Dark and resulting in a new cutscene entirely to expand on the already present cutscene! No- No they just added them into the world apart of the world gen like some random ass mod, it was nothing, it wasn't fun to explore, all it was was features that were small QOL's in the form of a new block. No one in survival in a casual playthrough would ever feel like going to the Deep Dark to even gather anything there, I certianly don't, because why would you? It has no unique blocks since the Sculk can generate anywhere, it has no unique items as it's all just a special music disc, and it has no unique boss. " But the warden is a boss! " No. The warden is a deterrent. It is not designed to be fought. You would not hold your shield up to it and expect it to fight you fairly, you do not have downtime. It will constantly chase you, shoot you THROUGH blocks and walls, and keep you away from its biome. " Isn't that the same as the wither? " The wither is controllable. You can place it wherever you want. It is an engagement you can choose, and can design a build around. You can build an arena out of obsidian, you can build it in the nether and fight it in a place DESIGNED to be destroyed with explosions. You can fight him, in full netherite holding up your shield, and fight him. The wither, even has multiple PHASES where you can chill out and not worry about him. The Warden? No. No it's just an enemy with a ton of hearts, capabilities to one shot you, and to keep you running away from where it spawned. All of these recent updates to minecraft have been horrible. This is Mojang's craft. Not " Mine " craft, it is not "My" world. It baffles me that a whole entire studio at Microsoft can't comprehend just how bad these updates are. Minecraft isn't Minecraft in the newer updates. It's taken on a new identity entirely. What even are Sniffers. They do not do anything. The warden at least DID something; These Sniffer guys are so anti-engaging it's shocking how the people designing them are still capable of working at mojang. And so much for the game being for kids, by the way, what does Sniffers even teach kids? Why remove fireflies because of FROGS? If they had made it a feature where a frog eating a firefly could get sick, and instead made it so you can feed a frog a healing potion to help it recover, that could teach kids WAY MORE about fireflies and frogs!

As someone who tries to stay up to date with everything Minecraft and Mojang, I think the real problem with the mob votes is that Mojang does not communicate details clearly with the mob vote animations. I remember it being stated during the vote that the sniffer plants would be purely decorational (I don't remember where, maybe a developer tweet), but most people were completely unaware of that. Coming back to this video, I would like to add that these mob animations are also very simple and vague. For early concepts they work if the mobs are fleshed out more beyond their announcement, but in the case of the sniffer, nothing else was really added which made the mob feel incomplete and disappointing. Only a couple other mobs were like this, but their features were already worth it, imo, those being the allay and more recently, the armadillo. I feel like the inconsistency in how much the mob is fleshed out beyond the initial design makes it difficult to know what to expect.

The egg hatched? Now you have to wait for the sniffer to grow up. It grew up? Now you have to wait 10 more minutes for it to sniff out a seed. Got the seed? Now you can plant it and congratulations!

Curiously, they instead have played that card in defence by saying "you can't say modders are better than Mojang, because Mojang are in part former modders." The only thing that shows is that the problem most likely aren't the devs, but the systematic structure they are operating inside of, but they don't seem to be aware of that fact as far as I can tell.

@@remor698 I agree its absolutely wack and there must be something seriously wrong with their system. Maybe like the overwatch guys they just throw office parties all day? Also if you look at mods like Create - which of course I'm not saying should be in the base game - they are much higher quality, more passionate, better supported, better thought out, more fun, and even better looking additions than everything mojang produces. Expanding on that last point, am I the only one who notices how bad Mojang's art can be? Maybe its because I know some art fundamentals, but often items or mobs will look thrown together by a 10 year old (such as the pottery fragment texture idk) and genuinely just worse that anything you would see on even reddit from a semi decent artist. I get that janky textures are the style of the game, but even the programmer art in the past looked cohesive, a lot of this new stuff looks ripped from a different game.

@@justonyx6721 Yeah, Minecraft's visuals are in a pretty odd place. I don't have enough of a sense for texture work to tell if their recent work is bad per se, but I do agree that there is a tendency for them to stray a bit far from the established artstyle. The sniffer's greenery parts, for example, seem too detailed while the new big pots don't seem detailed enough. It's the animation department where I see the least cohesion between new additions and old content though. When you have something as simple as a frog beating literally every mob before it other than arguably the enderdragon, the internal quality standards have obviously gone up enough to give the whole game a weird patchwork feeling whenever anything new ends up directly next to anything old. Having such high quality animations also makes it painfully obvious whenever there is jank with them. Stuff like the warden's sonic boom wind-up while running and the camel's goat animation reuse for its "dash" ability have kind of the jankiness you'd expect from older content, but the fact that the rest of their respective animation sets are actually well done makes those particular ones look out of place, effectively unfinished. While I do see the difference in quality giving new additions the feel of being from a different game, I'm not opposed to the idea that the quality bar should be raised. I'd just hope for it to be raised equally across the board and that would require a second pass over the entire game, something which it really could use anyways for all the, in parts, quite massive gaps left in the sandbox by updates over the recent years. Plus, better animations are something I pretty much see as a requirement for updating the melee combat system, which, especially in pve, is more a guessing game than skillful timing of offense and defense, because the mobs just functionally have what feels like a short range killaura with a cooldown.

Could have been Archaeology related as well, such as a "Discovery" enchantment that gives stone a chance to drop random unique archaeology items. "Discovery" would exclude any other enchantment other than maybe Efficiency so that you have incentive to find more Rascals to get more Discovery picks.

I would make it so that they can craft a new suspicion stew which would give the player a new effect.

I think the sniffer has a bit of potential still. If they decide to expand on the archeology section, they might give him new possibilities

Before the vote, mojang said that: 1. Sniffer will only find decorative plants 2. Rascal will give various items, and the pickaxe is just a placeholder 3. Tuff golem can be immobilized (probably with redstone) 4. Tuff golems can be stacked on top of each other to form a "moving shelf for items" 5. The Tuff Golem could be crafted from different types of wool. The color of the wool would affect the color of his cape 6. Tuff golem can pick up whatever dropped item it comes across if it is not holding one already. So we had a choice of a useful mob with interesting mechanics and potential for new items, a golem with a lot of potential for various decorations (e.g. for museums or gardens), and maybe for some redstone mechanisms and and a prehistoric turtle that would only give decorative plants.

Honestly, Minecraft isn't a hard game, voting for early game stuff doesn't add to the longevity of playing, most people are going to vote for end game stuff that enable replayability such as doing big builds with large farms for items and decorating them with stuff like the new sniffer plants, or adding glowing item frames to your home or glowing text to a transformed village that you start as a project after end game

the snifer is a rare mob that if the player manages to find has many cool features. the snifer can have up to 4 saddles and 4 chests equipped. acts as a slow method to transport your items and frinds over most terrian. unlike most other ridable mobs the sniffer can swim with players on top of it by sticking its nose above the watter. the disadvantage is the siffer is realy slow, being slighly slower then walk speed. simalar to the camel, zombies cant reach the player while they ride it. since the sniffer is slow lammas can keep up with it and you can make a lamma sniffer chest chain to carry many items. (anyone remember lammas follow each other if you lead one?) on top of that the siffer adds new flowers that it finds relivively quickly. one of those plants produces light. the sniffer also rearley can find the new food seeds, witch can be planted but will not drop seeds when harvested and it will only drop the food. the new food when eaten provides 3 minuits of risitance one. you can only get one every time the siffer finds a seed thought because you cant harvest the seeds from the crop. the sniffer is an amazing adition to minecraft and... wait... im in the wrong timeline? the snifer does WHAT in this timeline? oh, thats so lame.

I like the Sniffer in creative mode. Just as like, one of those dumb things you can mess around with friends. I was working in a world for a school project, with some friends there to fill the void. They ended up making a house with a cherry blossom garden for a sniffer named Desmond Benjamin. Highlight of me working on that school project lol

It's actually been theorized that after the first mob vote, Mojang has bias when presenting the mobs for the vote, intentionally presenting the mob they want to win in the best possible light. The first vote they legitimately were looking for help deciding, but since then they have been skewing their presentations in favor of the mobs they are most interested in seeing win. It's a crying shame that the Glow Ink couldn't have been mixed with normal dye colors to create Neon Shades of those dyes. Not Glowing Dyes, but like, Neon Yellow or Blue. It would add additional blocks into the building pallet that builders would appreciate. Allays are ehh. Everything about them works incredibly well, and there's nothing to write home about. They did a good job. Sniffers are going to be just as useless as Turtles, Polar Bears, Pandas, and Goats, however. I'm going to forget they exist, and when I find one, I'm very likely gonna ignore it and go on my way. Those flowers are completely pointless, tedious to get, and don't even look good. I already don't use much foliage in my builds, and this doesn't change that. Had the Torchflower glowed, had the Pitcher had a use, had the nice looking vines have been included, maybe I'd care, but I don't. They will likely be something that gets in the way and are killed, like Turtles when building, or Polar Bears and Goats when exploring. It's really pathetic. 14:08 - That's an Iron vein lol.

I beg to differ, more so with the "you would only encounter it if you wanted to" if it's a variation of the Blaze there's a decent chance you'd accidentally run into one while trying to farm blaze rods to get to The End, cause if you actually want to "beat" minecraft, then no, you can't "only encounter it if you wanted to", you'd most likely would have to fight one eventually if you wanna fight the Ender Dragon, or at the very least, see one while farming blaze rods and then deciding to retreat to not deal with it instead, which would be pretty game changing, especially for speedrunners, and depending on how annoying it would've been to battle one (we can't tell cause of not getting in obviously), at worse, it could've just made farming rods to complete minecraft all the much more harder, annoying, and tedious to do, so overall I'm glad it lost, but the Phantoms aren't much better either

Ok so while the sniffer isn't the best pick at all, but would you seriously say the glow squid is the best choice when it does... nothing? A cool mountain boss/monster would have been PERFECT for the update whilst adding more excitement for the game, and the glow berries would have allowed for the item frames/sign text without the need for the glow squid (also really curious, what shaders do you use because they look really nice)

Ik I'm 9 months late and this is irrelevant but I gotta play devils advocate here and maybe help some players who want seeds but don't know this: At 8:10 it may look horribly long, but it only takes about 8 minutes per seed, irrelevant of the amount of sniffers. ***The problem here is that EACH separate sniffer requires a space of 6x6 blocks. For example: if you have a fence with 2 sniffers, there has to be an area of 12 x 6 in that cage. If you put 2 sniffers in a 6x6 fence, neither of them will find a seed. Hope this helped someone who didn’t already know, if they see this :)

I am not 100% sure what it would or could be used for, but the fact that you could set up things that would get up and move around in response to stimuli would mean you could arrange paths that they COULD follow to be limited, set up pressure plates to detect movement along particular paths, and possibly other more innovative tricks than that depending on what exactly the final Tuff Golem behavior was.

@@segevstormlord3713 I hate to admit it, but looking at the wording again... it probably wouldn't be very useful. "When it wakes up from its statuesque slumber, it will stroll around at random and pick up whatever dropped item it comes across if it is not holding one already." This implies that it doesn't actually sense if there are items around, or whether or not to wake up if it's holding one. Whether it's currently holding an item or not it will, whether truly at random or on a set time interval, walk around for a while and then sit back down. At best these guys can be used as wandering Roombas... that can only hold one item. Their only truly unique trait is their ability to go from an entity into a block. This could perhaps be used with an Observer or a Comparator (which might change depending on whether it has an item or not). So in all reality they would just be worse Allays. I'll be real, these guys don't even stack up to Item Frames. Item Frames are at least in the same place, but Tuff Golems will literally just randomly go around and then sit down (which could destroy crops, and who knows how they would interact with sitting on Redstone). The Copper Golem on the other hand was WAY more useful. For one, it's an entity which can press buttons which is HUGE. Though secondly, they would be amazing for a cheap and easy one use timer. Leave a Copper Golem in a hole with an observer, and when it eventually Oxidizes and turns into a block, that would send a Redstone Signal. Unfortunately, the Tuff Golem just appears to be a cat/dog that doesn't attack, doesn't bring you new items, and can't be commanded to stay in the same place to even be used as decent decoration.

I wish the minecraft devs would focus on useful features instead of just cosmetic.

tbh I'm also a builder and I'm right up here with you. Cherry Blossoms and Vases were the highlight of this update for me. Because they were a nice extension to previously existing things. I'm not against flavor updates I feel Mojang is focusing too hard on making an update that's "unique and quirky", it worked with Ancient Cities, Frogs are... okay? But the Sniffer and Trial Ruins feel more style than substance. Which is ironic given some of their most successful updates in recent times - "The Nether Update" and "Village & Pillage" weren't wacky new additions to Minecraft, they were substantial expansions on areas the game was lacking in (with the Nether being super boring and Villages being super simplistic.) Village & Pillage gave me a brand new "playstyle" to fall in love with - making and managing a village which is still the main way I play Survival to this day. Trails & Tales gave me a new tree type that I really like using and some pots. If anything I wish they had honestly just postponed the Sniffer for another update and focused more on the new biome and archeology. Cherry Blossoms are BEAUTIFUL but they're also just another version of a forest, they could've had a neat lil' shrine you could do archeology stuff around. Honestly just sparsely putting lil' archeology structures for some of the more empty biomes would've been great. Then add the Sniffer with some more functionality later.

Then simple, don't go to deeper caves until you are ready- that or just dig up a section underground for yourself to build off of. I did this before in an official public server (Minecraft Origin Realms) and most of what I do in my own realm is pretty much underground. Another thing, about the chests and inventory management, understandable, but to simplify issues, just make either one ridiculously large storage room that's organized (if you can, and if you want to, start slowly with it) or make different spots around your base (either some being for farms, or the enchanted books, or tools and armor you have in an armory section, etc). As of inventory management, well, that's an understandable one. We also did (kind of?) get a few quality of life updates, one I think is the camel, literally you just can sit on it and most mobs won't be able to melee hit you (Enderman, all zombie variants, spiders, even the warden, and yes that has been debunked and tested in a myths video). The only issue is that skeleton variants and creepers can still hit you but that's about it (And maybe phantoms if they're around and if you're riding a camel? idk). I've been playing the 1.20 update in a new survival world, and for the most part, it's pretty good, and I also love the cherry grove biomes when I see em, plus I like the new wood types, and the decorative pots. I do agree for more quality of life content so the game improves more and more, and also hopefully they fix and improve The Sniffer and the unique seeds too. I will give Mojang props though, they're approaching the updates differently unlike what they did for Caves and Cliffs, so perhaps down the line, future updates are gonna be better, I hope.

Instead of a mob vote, they should do a vote to add new features to existing mobs.

The worst part about the flowers is that you can't even farm more of them from the existing plants, you need the sniffers to give you more. And lets not forget that they did have a very nich technical feature when they debuted in that one of them had a hitbox that slightly extended downward one pixel that no one would have noticed but the extreme technical players and they liked it for the niche technical uses until Mojang saw they were having fun and slapped that down immediately.

It also bugs me that the sniffer looks almost nothing like the cute, blocky bean in the mob vote. The actual one looks old and tattered, and though that may make more sense or it being an ancient beast and all, I feel like it wasn’t what a lot of people wanted. I know plenty of people who voted for the sniffer specifically because it was cute, but I feel like they made it too detailed in the actual game.

I don't understand why everyone hates the sniffer! I voted for it because it sounded cool for decor. Rascal almost had my vote, but I realized it would only be great for a short amount of time before I get so OP that I don't need it. The sniffer is useful until you have too much flowers. Also, the sniffer is a mob that can be updated very easily in the future to find more plants. It isn't like Minecraft is going to ignore it forever.

Bro we were told "giftS" in plural and they never said an iron pick would even BE in between the gifts :/

If you want my honest opinion, the Mob Vote is just Mojang's terrible attempt of saying, "Hey. We want to include you (the community) in Minecraft's development too!" however it really translates to, "Hey, we _totally want_ you (the community) to pick one of these unfleshed out concepts and _maybe_ we'll have a few new features with it, who knows? We don't know clearly, its only if we _really feel like_ doing that and you know how it is. Its always up in the air." Basically I've gotten to the point where the Mob Vote should be just canned and stopped all-together. This idea of Mojang working with their community base is a literal joke as they prop up the Vote as this amazing event, only to downgrade or scrap ideas and then on top of that make decisions and choices that make their community base even more angry with them. Like I know its not the devs', the people who actually work on the game, fault, its someone who is directing them usually. Someone who is either A) just out of touch with the situation and is trying to stay face or B) they just don't care and they are doing it to milk their community base. Its really sad to see how such a good game has been marred by all these problems that seem rather easy to just address with the community base and then approach with, to see which issues or features should be added or enchanced, but no they just would rather waste more resources on things that just really don't matter to the product at the end of the day.

Reading this, what really bothers me as that they already have a different, much better way of involving the community in the game's development. It's called the Minecraft Feedback site. Sure, there is an absolute metric ton of useless spam on there, way too much for any moderators to apparently keep up with, but there are some truly fascinating ideas hidden away there too, several of which have even been marked as being under review for potentially making it to the game... and have sat with that tag for multiple years now. It's utterly infuriating to see the complete mismatch of development cycle and community suggestions, when the devs have already given us as direct a line as possible to let them know what we want.

This is honestly why I voted for the rascal, they seemed so cool and useful. Sure the sniffer seemed cool as someone who isn’t too much into decorating, and the sniffer seemed like only decoration to me, the rascal just seemed extremely useful

​@@akiraotoishi5756 Yes the rabbit can drop rabbit hide which can be another way to get leather. They also drop rarely a rabbits foot which allows you to make potions of leaping. All the different variants of the rabbits are just cool and they added nice atmosphere. they were also added at a time where new passive mobs wasnt a normal occurrence.

​@@akiraotoishi5756 Foxes are VERY cool. I had to scroll through the wiki because I didn't even know all the things they did. Useful wise the fact they can pick up items in their mouth which can be used for farms AND how they can protect the player from hostile mobs is pretty cool. Also it adds good ambience to taigas which were previously pretty empty. The coolest thing about the fox though is the DETAILS. there's so many little details with how if a fox picks up a specific item it can. "use" it (totems of undying gapples ect), or how they literally jump and POUNCE onto prey like that's so cool. Or how at night or thunderstorms they get scared and seek out a village for safety. Or how if they pounce into snow they get stuck for a bit. There is a lot of fun stuff like that which I honestly didn't know about. Yes this mob is a little less useful than the rabbit however it is still PRETTY useful and the cute details make up for it. The thing is Mojang is adding new mobs like crazy and I think that's why it's a bigger deal now. I think the new plants are very cool but the sniffer doesnt need to be here

The rabbit feels more like an ambiance mob more than anything. I don't think rabbit hide actually has a use other than I think Jump Potions.

I hope a future update adds lighting to more things, like the torch flower and glow squids. They're working on lighting, getting closer.

That vote killed me. They were very upfront from the beginning that the sniffer would ONLY add a few decorative plants, but everyone online just kept wildly speculating about what new foods it would drop and the farming update that would inevitably come with it. Meanwhile they made sure to specifically mention that the rascal would drop more than just pickaxes, that was just ONE example of ONE item it MIGHT drop, but everyone is all "I dOnT nEeD aN iRoN pIcK". People, just pay a LITTLE bit of attention before you ruin an opportunity for everyone, please.

It’s Mojang’s fault, not the community. They should know better than to leave these decisions up to popular vote. The public has no idea what it is voting on or how a game should be designed.

What bothers me the most is that this would have been the first sentient overworld creature that wasn't based on villagers in some way. I love coming up with theories about stuff like that, and it could have laid the groundwork for more variations of whatever that was supposed to be. And if it was voted in it would probably also give you the seeds anyways since that's what they were probably trying to do anyways

Sniffer vs Rascal. Do you like mobs that sniff things for you or mobs that steal pickaxes for you. Your choice honestly

This was very nicely presented, and while I still love the Sniffler and the newly voted Savannah Sniffer variant, I can finally appreciate the Rascal's potential.

I never understood why everyone was so enthusiastic for the sniffer. A few (3) new useless plants compared to a mob that wanders around and carries items which would add so much life to builds or a mob which would be incredibly helpful in the early game which could also be exploited for farms. Also, as for the glow squid stuff, they totally intended for the glow ink sacs features to be for the glow berries.
