OH MY GOD THANK YOU. The old mobs' walking, head movement, etc. animations are so outdated

Yes! They reeeeeeally need an update!

@@chybawitek9984they need a terrain update that makes terrain simulation more realistic

I think they should do an animal update, where most of the previous mobs are updated to have more use/have more animations/or just more unique. Maybe they could even add new varients/colors of the basic animals. Like there can be white and brown cows or pigs with spots on them, brown and dark chickens. Just more variants of our basic mobs.

@@Ros3ii imagine pigs rolling in mud

Sadly for us they are smart, these votes means that they can put minimal effort while watching all the blame be put on who voted the mob, even if they are never fully clear on how it wipl work/used for (best example phantom), while they should just implement all three of them, a modder can do it so I don't see what problem besides laziness and having to pay less personell, as they have less to work on, they should have.

Wouldn't localization for all their existing supported languages slow it down a bit?

@@generalxaviat1078 Yes, exactly! The whole mob vote thing is just manipulative garbage. There’s nothing _actually_ stopping them from making literally *every single mob* and then improving any one that the community doesn’t like. All the vote does is give them an excuse to slack off while turning the community against itself.

I mean the primary point of these votes is probably to inflate community engagement, but yeah it's utterly embarassing how poor their time per feature efficiency is. I have no idea what is going wrong at Mojang for them to struggle this hard, but it cannot be their official reasoning of quality over quantity because the quality isn't really there either as the sandbox impact, the thing they themselves said they are most mindful of when designing a feature, of any new update has about as many holes of potential as swiss cheese. Whatever they are investing their efforts into, it isn't visible to the common consumer and they are unable to explain that discrapency properly.

It's not that they aren't able. It's what they chose for the update. They could add a bunch of mobs to an update but that would give less time for other features.

I think that was intentional, sniffers are basically Minecraft's version of dinosaurs so they would look out of place in the current time period.

Each mob, block, and gameplay feature always gets the "oh this doesnt fit in vanilla minecraft" treatment, it could just be that. Remember when stuff like RAIDS were added? Boy did that """"not feel like minecraft"""" for some people

@@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

@@Churros_are_Overrated As much as I respect your take, I dont think you, nor I, get to determine minecraft's "boundaries" in terms of style, direction. thats quite a selfish move imo. Of course when it comes to games, the playerbase should have massive sway. But on something like art direction? Feels like some pretty stupid thing to be moping about. The Warden is highly animated due to it's uniqueness, it's mystery and it's complete deviation from the standard mob pool. Same with the sniffer. Its MEANT to be ancient, it should not look like our world. No beef with you mate, sorry if I sound aggressive

@@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!

So far there are only two golems

I loved both golem they have show to us, they were cute and cool for build, the tuff golem whould have been so cool for Museum

I feel like the copper golem's random button pressing could have been used for some really cool minigame builds

We need that copper Golem! He was amazing

I really wished the copper golem won, I know it's less useful than the Alloy, so ofc...But I love the concept, and they were so cool, especially in regards to making copper much more important of an ore

Ye, i voted for the sniffer because i thought there will be more plants and more bigger plants, like bushes and trees.. But it was the worst mob to vote :( now i miss the copper golem and the other guy

For real. I only voted with the sniffer because I got my hopes up and thought it'd drop with like 10+ plants to decorate with, along with those plants like the Torch Plant being natural lights.

​@@starrymic6588 is there is a way to make tipped arrows all you need is to get some dragon's breath by collecting the weird purple stuff that the dragon spews out and then you combine that with any normal potion and you can turn it into a lingering potion then combine that with a arrows and you've got eight of whatever tipped arrow you want

Optionally, you can level up a fletcher for a chance at some tipped arrow trade.

Why would they change it? They love making dog shit

Yeah, I think the main issue of the mob votes is that there's just not enough info about the mobs themselves Obviously, they are concepts, so not everything is gonna be developed for it, but you really don't have a lot of info to vote from

Not to mention phantom membrane is only useful once you get the elytra and is completely useless elsewhere meanwhile encountering the phantom early game is way more than easy. For all I care even making phantom membrane craftable into leather armor would be solid.

@@CantoniaCustoms you can make slow falling potions for all the use you'll get out of that lol

THANK YOU. You seem to be the only person who realized that!

Right? The need to put that detail in the dang video instead of tweeting it or putting it in a blog post. Like, Are the kids voting on these suppose to have a Twitter Account or frequent Minecraft Forums to be on the lookout for extra details?

Its like playing at a casino without knowing how much the jackpot is worth

it saddens me to say it but the mob votes is probably as way of marketing and to give the false sense that the community can effect the game. also they are not an indie studio. it's embarrassing the amount of content they bring.

@@AceTheOcarinaMaker They should put the mob vote in the launcher for at least a week so that more than the minority of players that use twitter and keep up with minecraft live and even less who are free in the hour its active can actually have a say.

I'm still upset about the allay winning, I have yet to see anyone use it legitimately for good reason. Fundamentally, mobs are never reliable. Just like the golem fans said. At least the copper boi brought a new button.

But then you fall into the exact same trap as the mob votes "oh X group wants this biome for this reason, oh X group wants that biome for that reason" no matter what happens someone's going to be disappointed at the end of the day.

@@cursedhawkins1305 The biome vote was about 'which one gets reworked/added first', which in my eyes is how the mob vote should work. add them all, just have the community decide who comes first.

@@RegalRoyalWasTaken the trap would still be the same no matter how the process is done, people are going to be disappointed with the outcome one way or another, having the choice might be the better alternative than not having a choice at all but when it ends up dividing a community (especially since Mojang's currently going on a ban hammer spree as of recent) how much of the community is going to care about future votes if their favorite servers end up having to be shut down because of Mojang's rules.

@@cursedhawkins1305 sure in theory. But at least from my perspective last biome vote wasn’t nearly as toxic as the mob votes have been. And the point is that we’re not adding some random mob that can potentially be useless. We’re guaranteed real change and helping out lackluster biomes that we’ve always wanted more from.

@@cursedhawkins1305 I mean I guess.

That.... that's actually a very good point!!

But to be fair, I don't want to find diamonds, make a diamond pick axe, get obsidian, build a nether portal, explore the nether, find glowstone, just to make my signs and items frames glow. But that is just my opinion 😒

@@natethegreat2862 you dont need diamonds to make a nether portal, just use a pond of lava and water buckets. Its done all the time in mc speedruns

@@natethegreat2862 you can also get glowstone from cleric villagers so its not like you have to scour for it

​@@natethegreat2862but you want to get a sniffer?

Agreed, short xray vision potions ect

"amazing food source" More variety is good, but nothing game-breaking is welcome, so no, nothing "amazing" is a good idea, we're good on that from. More diversity for the fun of it would befit Mionecraft, they could even add rocksalt blocks that can be turned into rocksalt piles for food recipes. We can't make vegetable stew, burgers, apple pie, cheese, yogurt, and more despite having the basic ingredients for them all. Why not add a chocolate-based energy drink like the Aztecs had? Or simply chocolate milk?

I just think that they need more plants (maybe locked by certain biomes) and to make the plants themselves at least have a chance to produce seeds when you break them. Cuz there sure do be a lot of seeds around for plants that don't produce any seeds. Also give torchflowers a light level, even if it's small like the amethyst shards.

They also managed to mess up in the promise department for the Sniffer announcement. The reveal video led people to imagine some interesting functionality for the new plants, while the article on the official website (which had significantly less chance of being looked at by potential voters) actually had the accurate information of the Sniffer's plants being purely decorative. Subsequently, they also did a rather poor job of rectifying that informational mistake. Puzzling how that can happen after the ridiculous level of miscommunication from the 1.19 announcements the year before. You'd think they would be treading on egg shells after that one instead of just obscuring the reality of what we are getting more...

I thought that was the case. It's like how people thought the Wii U was an expansion for the Wii all over again.

Mojang should have went full decorative and five plants so like they have special affects so we get more plants that make particles animations or in the torch flowers case it’s a light source honestly I don’t think the sniffer was a mistake I think mojang just did a shit job making a mob that allows you to use cool new decorations imagine if the pitcher plant made particles that represent scent scent

​@Sebastion White the pitcher plant could also be used to lure the warden away since I'm pretty sure he sometimes makes a sniffing noise

I tought about that since the begining and they said in the minecon that the sniffer would bring DECORATIVE flowers. Everyone missed the DECORATIVE part in the minecon

It because it causes controversy which is evident because you are commenting. To avoid giving them what they want do not mention it again and don't vote but that's already too late for me and you now, but we can not do this in the future. Mojang doesn't care at all what we want and its evident through these votes. Until they show me otherwise I won't be rage baited anymore.

Uselless

And all the while the devs are saying that compared to modders, they are the ones caring about quality over quantity. Whatever they are doing behind the scenes, the result is somehow actually neither. They must have some absurd problems in their pipeline or they invest way too much time into something that is invisible to the casual consumer.

@@remor698 I think saying anything like that is the most pretentious thing possible considering it's minecraft.

@@chickenpower5732 It's even weirder when you remember that a decent chunk of the devs are people who have made some really well known Minecraft mods back in the day. They are literally proven wrong by the accomplishments of part of their own team that lead to them coming on board in the first place. 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.

I mean, horses are tameable and they do that too lol.

Yea​@@oMuStiiA

Also remember that these mobs didn’t come out of nowhere. Someone actually thought that having people vote for either a I’ve wizard or a retextured would be a fair vote.

And you don't even have to interact with the squid since they die by themselves so you can find plenty of glowing ink while caving

or glowstone dust.

the Iceologer should've won, but all the cry babies that didn't want another hostile mob voted for a useless squid or an equally useless cow.

@@JondarKorricyou probably havent played dungeons because OMG it is one of the most ANNOYING enemies in the entire game by far

I still have so much hope for the Sniffer. There’s still (and always will be) time for the Sniffer to be updated, or even revamped. It honestly has so much untapped potential to have features that reward the players in new ways, kind of like the elytra. The elytra was pretty useless when it first came out, until it got updated, which it then became arguably the best item in the game. I have a feeling that the Sniffer could end up like that, but only time will tell at this point 💔.

That's just how mojang be

@@tapess Next thing you're telling me is that they'll make the glow squid actually glow

@@captainsprinkles6557 I should’ve seen that comparison coming😭. The glow squid is extremely common though, the Sniffer on the other hand, is extremely rare. On top of that, the method to get the items from the Sniffer is extremely tedious and time consuming. It only makes sense to reward the player with something beneficial outside of just two decoration plants. They could easily make the plants useful by adding them into a potion recipe, or by putting them in a food recipe that gives the player certain effects, like the phantom membrane or the suspicious stew. There’s so many sensical ways to make the flowers/crops useful outside of just decoration, they just need to add it.

@@tapess I agree with you dude. I was just referencing that they put these light related words in these things' names, but they… well don’t produce light

THIS!! people always said i was dumb for voting for moobloom initially because EVERYBODY forgot about that secret feature

I’m expecting it to be something most players don’t use. It’ll likely be similar to the turtle helmet, where you have to go out of your way to get it or even find out how to obtain and farm for it, only for you to find out it’s not really worth the effort. Edit: I was correct.

Honestly I don't think new enchantments would have been needed for the Rascal for people to pick it. The whole reason people picked the Sniffer was to get the seeds, but if Mojang said that they only would be cosmetic, I think the Rascal might have been the winner. It's also this video that changed my mind, the point about improving sustainability in caves was a really good one that I hadn't considered.

@@Bookslayer10 They said in the mob trailer they would just be cosmetic the sniffer won cause it was a dino it added new blocks for builders all the people who hate it say it has nothing new this mob has more new things than every other mob vote mob we have had and it is a super important part in archaeology so we most likely will get more plants or at least the vines but we don't even need any of that the sniffer is the only mob that added anything to the game at all the rascal may be useful once not for the world or even the player just once playing hide and seek with it will be 1 super easy or impossible depending on the cave unlike all the other mobs finding a sniffer is your chose yes I would say it could have been better but it is already better than the other 2 and saying it is not is just dumb yes the pickaxe could be useful but it would have to spawn in caves and you are not using a lot of torches down cause lava and glow likin and if you don't bring wood into the caves with you that's your fault and nobody liked the tuff golem at all I would say that the sniffer was the only time this community got a vote right but again they will most likely add the other mobs latter

@@johnhorn2551 Where exactly does it say that the plants would only be cosmetic? In the trailer it only says it would dig up seeds for plants, not seeds for useless cosmetic flowers. Apparently the Rascal would also add in new items in its reward loot pool, but I don't know where the source for THAT is, I just heard people talking about it. If the Rascal did add in new gear that could help with early game caving, it could turn out to be a pretty fun mob. And if the gear it gave did something unique enough, it might even be useful for creative mode players or endgame survival players.

Yeah, no. They have internal teams working on each mob, and so each mob has a developer who wants it to win, then they ask the community. So they technically want any mob to win.

I voted for the Rascal because I assumed there would be a new enchantment on that pickaxe (and that would be the reason for it only being iron). 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.

Yea. The Mojang apologist types honestly confuse me. Why should it take 6 months to add ONE mob. Like while sure 1.15was a hefty dose of Performance Tweaks (apparently), we got just bees

You've just described minecraft. That's marginally less tedious than searching for diamonds. Listen, I voted for the rascal and still think it would've been a better addition, but everything you just described is GOOD for the sniffer. It requires adventuring to find, something minecraft heavily needs. Specific rewards for going specific places, so that exploring feels worth it. And a block being decorative isn't bad. It's actually... what's the opposite of bad again? Oh right, it's good. VERY GOOD. This is a block game, having things to build with is ONLY an upside.

you know, that would've been a completely busted feature. i could not imagine anything good about the rascal to me, as all it does is ruin the fun with these better gears. especially that minecraft doesn't have much of a variety with their equipments, it would feel more like being spoiled by a greater gear in the game other than a deserving reward.

@@totallynotseanna It probably wouldn't have been anything really good stats-wise, like something better than a diamond pickaxe, because it's true that it would feel like spoiling the progression. But, if it gave a side-grade, like a special tool that could mine both stone and dirt with the speed of iron, it would be a good addition while also keeping the standard progression relevant. Making the tools lower durability could also make it more of a trade off, so just bringing more pickaxes would still have benefits to consider. I think the Rascal has lots of potential.

@@Bookslayer10 im sure sniffers had just as much potential. it all really just boils down to whether mojang will actually implement such feature or not. knowing them, i bet it wouldn't really be anything crazy and would be just as underwhelming as the sniffer we have now. best i could imagine the rascal would do is to give lower or decent gear with nice enchantments for early game, which isn't really game breaking. your idea sounds cool, but also kind of redundant when compared to what the sniffer was 'promised' to have. they'd probably go obsolete at some point in the game, because it takes up inventory space (and possibly a random drop?). if you put it into people's perspective during mob vote, sniffer must've won because it provided possibly more content to expand on, which sounded more appealing than what the rascal offers. I'd really just say that mojang did the sniffers dirty. but then, whatever the outcome might've been, it wouldn't be much of a loss either. ultimately, im saying none of the choices would've mattered if we're simply talking about their potential, but that's just me. what do you think?

Oh my gosh a flower crown is actually a really good idea! That would be so cool

That is actually a cool idea. I like that concept! It would defiantly be very useful in game for sure and help us through mining journeys or traveling in the nighttime! Good idea! :D

sorry to rain on your parade, but MOJANG wont do that. ever. they have stated during the glow squid fiasco that Minecraft's lighting engine does not support movable light sources or light source entities. Optifine's light only works because it is client side and basically imaginary to the server.

@@datonedood3791 you make a fair point there. I never really expect Mojang to do all of these ideas. It’s just a cool concept to think about. But you are correct they most defiantly won’t change their game over some peoples ideas. Still fun to imagine cooler mechanics tho.

Can’t happen, the game engine doesn’t support mobile light sources

Starts and ends with them, though. They're not adding more mobs like that...

@@galloviking4766 I mean, no offense, but you don't know what Minecraft has planned for sure.

For real, nobody cared for the features. They just wanted a big six legged dino pal.

@@PhonyLyzard Well, I don't, but they keep introducing random features and not developping them any further. Sniffers will remain like that for multiple major updates at the very least. If we're lucky, these new flowers will be use to breed a new mob later, but that's pretty much it.

@@galloviking4766 That's untrue, between features like bamboo getting a new wood type and copper, amethyst and diamonds getting new crafting recipes, Mojang has shown that they do develop further on older features, heck, they even said that the reason camels breed with cactus was to give them a new use. Your statement of Mojang not developing on older features is entirely wrong, heck a second time, developing on older features has been the themes of whole updates, like caves and cliffs, or the nether update, they don't just add features and forget about them.

they turned around and said mobs that lost the mob vote are gone forever. so no, we never getting the mobs unless someone mods them in.

@@JondarKorric f

They added frogs, but I'm pretty sure thats it :/

@@remises1370 that was because they added the swamp update, which the frogs were a part of

Same. I also wanted the Rascal! Instead of that stupid 6 legged dog like thing!

a dropper is true randomness... thats about as easy as it gets

@@Kurto.it’s not true random, since you have to power it on a clock. Sure you could chain droppers to get closer and closer to random, but you could also have a silly little guy that presses buttons for you instead

@@andrewbianchi6914 You made zero sense. Press a button on a dropper and you get a true random output. Its as simple as that.

@@Kurto. ok but what’s the point in having that if I have to stand there and press the button?

@@andrewbianchi6914 the beauty is that we have millions of redstone tools so you don't have to :3

Even phantoms had more potential to be something better than the annoyance they are. Truth is, Mojang will abandon them and move on to next mob

​@@nemesissombriaExactly. Now thay 1.20 is out, Mojang is just going to say "update finished. our job is done here" and never touch the Sniffer again, apart from eventual bug fixes or maybe adding one or another decorative-only plant with no further in-game benefit.

CSM vol 11 cover as your pfp very nice

@@parzavaal5335 ty sir, i think denji looks very elegant there

That's actually an amazingly good point.

you mean random pathfinding?

@@hiimjoe6768 From what little we were told, they would come to life to go find things to pick up. They thus need to detect the presence of things to pick up, pathfind to them, pick them up, then go back to their original spots, based on what we were told. So I don't think it'd be entirely random. 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.

Ah yes... the _Ancient Onion._ A legendary crop from a forgotten age. You may think its just a normal onion... but it is _in fact_ an EXCTINCT RELATIVE of normal onions!

Maybe eating an onion could make you smell for awhile and that could ward off some mob ot something. Idk. I just wish eating different foods did different stuff a bit. Like eating cookies could give you haste and speed to simulate a sugar rush.

@@slenderfoxx3797 Cake would probably also do that

​@@slenderfoxx3797Steve is too strong for that.

Why do you care what it looks like

@@ArmyOfMapping Because that's basically all it's really for tbh? It and the plants are essentially just decor

@@spectorcsm True

Yeah the sniffer was too detailed. It seem too much like a mod

Honestly the Sniffer still looks pretty cute to me, though that may be because its detail reminds me of IRL farm animals compared to the very simple-designs of the actual farm animals. That said, I think it sticks out like a sore thumb. Its colors and general vibe just do not feel like Vanilla MC to me.

silk touch... for grass??? Dawg just use shears and put unbreaking on them

OH GLASS!!! NEVERMIND

I am fairly certain they made it very clear from the get-go that the plants would be purely decorative, did they not?

They did say that the new plants will be only for decoration though

Y'all never listen to what they tell you, and then get mad when you get exactly what they said they would give you. The same shit happened with the phantom. They said the plants would be decorative. If your imagination made you think they wouldn't be, that's on you.

I mean it took them two years to add in the the warden and deep dark while it took some random modders to do the same thing in 3 weeks, and not only that, it was just as good as what we got.

@@partystarter8041 Whaaaaat noooooo. Hahaha what a silly thing to say. Here look at this new animal mob, isn't it cute and distracting?

Remember when they literally used the community and modders to add features (like the horse)? Yeah, maybe talking to the optimisation mod creators would be a nice idea.

@@nemesissombria Nah, the real optimization would've been programming the game properly in a different language with a proper engine. Instead we got whatever the fudge bedrock is.

same. I wanted to build a golem village and just have a variety of golems roaming my base.

Don’t diss mod mobs, stuff like Alex mobs show how to do mob additions right. Each mob provides a fun interaction or is able to be tamed. And they can produce more than one in half a year.

The camel texture genuinely makes it look like a mod I appreciate the new content but the art design seems to be drifting too far away from that of the original mobs like cows, pigs, sheep, even horses

I get the same feeling, the designs and functions really just don’t feel like Minecraft but rather some fantasy game

Would you say the same for these mobs: the wither, the witchs, wither skeletons, blazes, ghasts, enderman, shulkers, the ender dragon, panda bears, polar bears, horses, gaurdians, elder gaurdians, foxes, drowned, wondering traders, lamas, turtles, fishes, axilottels, slimes, frogs, piglins, fishes, cats, strays, phantoms, the warden, vexes, illagers, dolphins, spiders, rabbits megma cubes, alleys, rabbits, ocelots, goats, cows, sheeps, silver fishes, ender mites, snow golems, iron golems, creepers, husks, zombies, zombie villagers, skeletons, skeleton jockeys, baby zombie jockeys, zombie horses, skeleton horses, skeleton horsemen, horses, donkeys, mules, chickens, parrots, villagers, mooshrooms, zombie piglins/pigmen, piglins, hoglins, zoglins, pigs and striders. All each of the old mobs even the fairly recent ones were new in the updates they came in even the oldest mobs (sheep, pig, cows, chicken, zombie, creeper, zombie, skeleton) were considered new before the full game was released.

@@Dualbladedscorpion7737 godzilla had a stroke reading this and fucking died.

I think the rascal would've been like a wandering trader in some ways, but with grey skin to imply that they have connections to the illagers. Lots of lore potential! Sadly, it didn't win.😔

That’s what I said! It would have been the first “non villager/pillager” in the overworld! Edit: thought you meant the Rascal-

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

The sniffer is like a Panda. Its cuteness made it win. Mf doesn't even do anything but just smells the ground.

fantasy? they're pixel consistent with the other flowers and they also have real life counterparts respectively. i don't really get that, they may be more exotic than some of the other flowers in mc but they're,,, like,, not fictional 😭😭 im on the side of rascal too but not for the same reason ig

@@tokki3149 They are consistent resolution-wise, but the art-style otherwise somehow doesn't feel cohesive with everything else in the game

@@KidPrarchord95 I think it's down to the colour choice and shading they used when making the textures. Seems to be of a different palette than what MC usually uses.

Yes! Something is off about their design and they don't fit in with the rest of the plants we have.

Sniffer: Garbage mob that doesn't fit in the game, is part of archaeology which isn't fleshed out, gives useless flowers and atmosphere/lore is not a use.

@@EmperorPenguin1217 someone is salty their walking item frame didn’t get voted in

same bro

You're one of those people huh. What about the rabbit or the fox are those 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.

but your honor, haha sniff sniff funny

Same here! Personally i figured the pickaxe was just an example, and there would have been some way to just help players select the situationally needed item

Yea, me too

I voted for it mainly because I saw it as a small little thing you can do in caves with a decent reward because well thats what it is

Rascal coulda maybe been like koroks from Zelda, but instead of seeds you get a random useful item for your caving needs.

How about better food? Ancient fruit for example

​@@G.A.C_Preserve yeah, and give you diamonds and also a sword that deals 1000 damage. Yeah lets make them set the game into baby difficulty...

The tuff golem is still at my eyes a moving item frame. That why I voted for the sniffer but the fool that I was trought that the multi billionaire company that is mojang could at least add one more wood type and useful plants for potions or even redstone but no! Mojang, the company that own the best seller game of all time cant even code a new tree and some plant in less than 5 years!

@@Pengouinn If you are disappointed with 1.20 I recommend playing vintage story. There are only 9 people working on this game, but they have added more incredible content to the vintage story in the last 16 months than Mojang and Microsoft combined have done for Minecraft in the past 8 years, and that's not even an exaggeration.

@@GameModder Well that's not really a good measure of what makes something useful or well made. Nobody would have found Netherite after only a few hours of playing, but that doesn't make it a bad new feature.

@@lasercraft32 I mean that's kind of the problem. These updates add in all this content but one or two things that are actually useful are either treated as rare "rewards" for participating in the games awful combat or require the player to jump through hoop after hoop after hoop.

I mean, it is just a wolf cosmetic, and it isn't gonna protect you from the shitty AI of the wolves

@@morshu_gaming69 For real. Obviously I feel like it's just a "fix" to their weak-coded and crap AI of the, let's say, dogs. And surely people will keep their dogs at home again, except there is a cooler armor on them.

Hovering inferno looked cooler and was more creative than a crappy ghost bird

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

​@@remix2593couldn't agree more, the phantom we got is certainly annoying but it could have been so much worse.

imagine its the boss that has ender eyes loot then blaze rods is just for potions since the nether wart is only found in the fortress

I chose for the monster of the deep because the oceans had nearly no dangers

@@luis-sophus-8227 I used to hate the phantoms bc they are quite annoying. However, I've grown to actually like them! something NOBODY ever seems to remember, is that it makes having pet cats EXTREAMELY useful! Phantoms are afraid of cats, and will stay far away from you if you just bring your cats along. And honestly? The phantoms' design is really cool. It's also one of the very few flying mobs in the overworld. I agree, I think most people are just kinda being... whiney when they say they don't like phantoms. It gives you consequences for not sleeping, which is pretty which makes the game more interesting.

also in a lore sense, phantom membrane for repairing elytra's makes much more sense.

well hey the frogs at least help you get some nice lighting blocks.

Rascal had a lot more use in lore and aesthetic to environments. Golem would've been used a lot more than sniffer, arguable would look better in houses. We don't know what the rascal would've dropped but it could've potentially been useful especially for early game.

"We want more decorative plants!" ... "This is it?"
