Somehow the running joke of that video is more dated than the Fresh Prince of Bel Air because that song aged like a glass of milk on a hot, humid day.

But yahtzee there are 2 more difficulties that perform like dark souls.

It definitely doesn't have the creativity of minecraft but it's an ok game. Fun enough. Just once you beat it, which doesn't take long, there really isn't much motivation to play more.

It's basically the plot of Lego Movie. With the epic macro story being parallel to the family micro story.

@@noahbirthisel3285 The way that they continued that in Lego Movie 2 was pretty brilliant as well.

That sounds like a fairy tale. Wouldn't the older brother kick the younger brother ass and resume playing?

It would give everyone traumatic flashbacks to there childhood

@@noahbirthisel3285 please no minecraft movie, microsoft

This is the best possible wording for that. Made my day.

I'm fine for both those thingd and it really doesn't interest me either. Although to me its more a lack of a point. If you set up a really nice train set and mini town not only can you have a pictures accompanying your effort, you have a tangible landscape and train you could use for a war game or rpg map. Minecraft is just sortof there and only really available if you can rope people into getting the game and joining your server.

@@ryanjones_rheios a lot of people play minecraft as a singleplayer exerience trough and trough. you just happen to see the multiplayer because it makes content faster

Me too, dude. The game actually sounds pretty awesome. Maybe something like postal.

That was basically my thought process as I was playing through the game with a mate, it exists. It's fun for like the hour or two the main campaign lasts for and then you dont play it again.

Branding

Because kids absolutely adore Minecraft, and will happily buy anything with the label, AND encourage their friends to do so as well. It's that simple. Despite the mediocre review scores, right now MC Dungeons is topping the sales charts for nearly every platform in the US, UK, Canada, etc. It wouldn't be doing that if it was just 'generic hack and slash ARPG number 5'.

Because Microsoft bought the minecraft IP for an obscene amount of money

It is a ton of fun but you’re not wrong, it didn’t have to be minecraft. I think though, it needs the minecraft name to be successful, otherwise people would have never bothered looking into it.

Because then it would be Torchlight? I'm having fun with the game, but I got it on Xbox Live PC, so it feels free. Kinda hard to judge something you didn't pay much for.

It's a doozy, alright. You're too busy being winded by the body shot you were bracing for to even spot the knock-out punch coming.

I thought it was Moneybags tho

@@tech6hutch Moneybags was the bear from the Spyro games.

@@ULTRAOutdoorsman That's what I noticed as well, been playing since the official launch back then. Ever since Microsoft bought it the patches became really small, but of course the MC community was still super hype for every little detail they added. It's kinda ridiculous how many well polished mods are out there that double or triple the content of the game nowadays, sometimes done by only a few dudes with no prior experience in game development. It really feels like Microsoft wants to keep the base game very ... basic, I guess.

But they still haven't sorted out the suicidal AI of the dogs and cats.

@@Blue-gp3vn super annoying, you had to reach land at incredibly slow speed after going at sport boat speed

I just skimmed your comment thinking you were describing the actual game. Got me a little excited to try it. Now I'm sad, lol.

@@yadamspiezer Oh, buggeration....sorry to get you hyped and then sad, it wasn't my intention. On that basis, I'll give my OC a little edit. I'm doing a Game Development course at University....it's this kind of thing that's made me want to do it (among other things). Believe me....if I get into the industry, I'll be ensuring games I work on get called out for BS. (they might not listen but, at least, it'll have been said)

T H I S I didn't get very far in the beta version before they closed it down, but I remember being salty bc your "home base" was basically an open plain with a dummy for training and the odd villager/trader you got as you completed levels, and there was squad you could do about it. No chance to build your own base (or even craft basic weapons like arrows or something), no chance to interact with anyone else except those "hur hur I has trades. They loot boxes" villagers, and no chance to really explore your surroundings bc your home base is a glorified box of an "open" field. You can't even sleep in a frigging bed, unless they changed that for the final version (not that it would do much considering how the levels reset your health and shit but like. C'mon. This is supposed to be Minecraft. Where are the phantoms). It's not a BAD game, just a meh one, and it has very little to do with actual Minecraft. And the worst part is that, like you said, only with adding those small features you mentioned things could feel so much more reminiscent of ACTUAL Minecraft and thus feel less like they made a mediocre game and then slapped "minecraft" on it as an afterthought

far from willing to defend Microsoft, but while you're right it wouldn't have taken much extra time to _play_ those elements, _creating_ them would be a different story... I haven't played the game myself, so this is mostly conjecture, but - -having a home base in town - basically make a new cell to act as player housing. simple enough, until you get to the prospect of netcode - since the game's multiplayer, you'd need to implement a system for players to have their own instanced homes, or maybe instanced home per group of individuals, or lobby master's home, or... this gets complex quick -side note, you'd also need to model, texture, etc some unique assets in order to drive home it's the player's house and not some random dungeon locale -and it needs to be upgradeable - so now we're taking the previous and integrating an upgrade system into it - more on that later. you'd also need a system of which upgrades are available first and lead into other unlocked upgrades, which is a whole 'nother thing, on top of the previous netcode shenanigans... -and the upgrades come from a small wood and a mine, so now we're talking another two locations, which you can harvest particular materials from at particular spots (in particular quantities?), and it needs to tie into the home upgrade system as well, AND the mine also needs an unlock system of its own on top of that, so that's an extra dimension of complexity too... -a rudimentary crafting system also needs to be put together, which is essentially a mini-upgrade system that's item-sensitive unto itself, and then the products of _that_ needs to feed into the upgrade system for the house - which would alter the environment, so that's updating environment depending on upgrades, new rooms which may mean new cells or extensions to an existing cell depending on implementation (and god help you if you gave every player their own instanced home, because now it's cells containing cells across parallel instances of player housing within town where previously you just had town) -the home upgrade system is then being given a Y-axis, where rooms can be assigned roles depending on drops from bosses (the boss and mob drops also need to be added - skimming over that because i'm assuming the base game has trading or some way to sort loot among players - if not, that needs to be added too), so now each room also needs a look per possible room type it could be, unless you want it to look the same no matter where in the house you put it - essentially making it modular like lego (this would cut down on work but also make the house feel kinda not unique to you at all) -and THEN these upgraded rooms also need functionalities, and those functions are quite possibly not covered properly by the existing crafting system (for instance in Minecraft, brewing a potion is different to using a workbench is different to using a furnace) so now you need to code in player item interaction with workstations depending on both item and workstation, meaning _that_ crafting system _also_ gets a Y-axis... -finally of course we need to consider UI design, when the player is able to visit home or not, unique music and sounds, new item icons and other graphics, bugtesting for the above systems, and any other finishing polish that isn't immediately anticipatable... so, the final bill for this proposal would be: -netcode shenanigans -new area(s) (home) + new assets/sounds -same above twice, for woods and mine + harvesting systems for both -unlock system for mine -upgrade system for house (rooms) - based on harvested (and then crafted) items, and previous upgrades (branching availability) -upgrade system for upgraded rooms (functionality) + possible unique looks per-room -rudimentary crafting system**s** (variants - workbench, brewing, furnace, etc) -new item drops - which mobs, what items, what chances, icons, graphics, descriptions, etc -UI, sfx, music, polish -integration into rest of game, bugfixing, playtesting i'm far from a be-all end-all expert to gamedev, but I do have some experience, and I wrote this not to tear into you but mainly for my own practice analysing and breaking down. it might not _seem_ like a lot of added content from a player's perspective, just a quick thing to dip into and fiddle around with, - and I tried to shorten the list by combining things where possible, but... when you break it down like this, it's a whole other small game's worth of features... TL;DR that would've probably taken a TON of extra time

Es ist Mein Kraft!

punt her into the mountains

I feel like the first 2 or 3 episodes of the walking dead game did pretty well to convey that feeling; but yeah ultimately they had sequels and shit in mind which completely ruined any "choices matter" aspect. They did well to sell the illusion but once I watched other people's playthroughs I saw how shallow the choices really were which is sad; but I at least enjoyed it in the moment.

If they spent the extra dev time to make a sequel to each ending it could be redeeming but alas

@@Christian-rn1ur Thats a series I haven't heard in a while and I thank you for the reminder/excuse to boot them up again.

It's almost as if the "choices matter" concept is incompatible with a standard video game plot....

@@Mekose Hmmmm, isn't that a bit like saying "I thought I'd won millions of dollars so I went out on a massive spending spree and then found out I'd gotten a few of the lottery numbers wrong. Now I'm bankrupt but at least I had fun in the moment."

"Lighting in a bottle" implies that it did something impossible. Creating a game composed entirely of building shit has started to be a concept even before Minecraft came out. So a much more accurate metaphor for Minecraft might be something like "The Titan of the Litter". But we CAN agree on the second though, Dungeons IS a generic game, and definetly the runt of the litter

More like lightning in a box

Minecraft is fucking fantastic also

Cod is a generic game dungeons is set in a genre that doesn’t get a lot of love so I wouldn’t say it’s generic. I mean it’s not innovative but if you’re a fan of the genre it’s pretty solid.

I have been playing Minecraft for the first time very recently and i disagree, is an apparently ok game with a lot of obnoxious and non sensical design choices.

That's not a uvula. And you probably aren't interested in knowing a lot more about colonoscopy, so I'll just leave it there.

@@wandererwerewolf477 I know too much about colonoscopies as it is. Here's a tip. You don't want one but if it's even something that comes up you probably need one...

I thought Minecraft was supposed to be about survival.

Good foreword thinking!

What if, a board game where instead, a team variation on it, where each team is some far corner of the political compass, and the goal is to, by some Rube Goldberg machine, activate some execution thing against opposing ideology ? Like, the tankies are trying to activate a guillotine, racist authoritarians trying to activate a helicopter to drop people from, etc. I guess pacifists would win if the game goes on long enough without anyone being eliminated?

Pretty much anything can be adapted to fit a different ideology just by how you present it. Case in point: Monopoly. An anti-capitalist screed turned into pro-capitalist poster child somehow.

None. Because this game is shitting money.

thank you mr eggert beggert

...to what?!?

bruh

I knew I wouldn't have to scroll too far to find the first comment pointing it out. Inevitable.

Don't like Chuck E. Cheese?

Every kid knows the Cherry Jolly Rancher was the superior rancher, and the Watermelon Ranger was merely a decoy.

Watermelon is the false prophet

Godless heathens, the lot of ya!!! Grape is the one true Jolly Rancher flavor!!!!

Having paid only 20 bucks is the best thing I can say about the game...

"Honestly this is just making me want to play Torchlight again" Torchlight 3: "Did somebody say TORCHLIGHT!?" "Wait no"

@@android19willpwn As a fan of the genre my brother played both of these, but the one he keeps coming back to is Path of Exile. Personally I haven't liked any of these type of games since Champions of Norrath 2 or maybe Scred 1.

What's your point here? The two games are completely different

Well the second question is a pretty bad. Successful games existing in a genre has never stopped other games. If that was the case we wouldn't have any battle royals outside of fortnite and Pubg, and no Fps's outside of Doom and Wolfenstein. But dungeons was probably just an easy money grab none the less, but only the first one can be answered like that

@@hallowjupiter6305 Not really. I specifically picked those two, as they are considered to have "perfected" the genre, at least until somebody introduces some new idea or twist to expand the genre. Which this game clearly not only doesn't, but never even had any intention to try. And if you already have something that is perfect (two of it, in fact) - what's the point of making intentionally lesser versions of it?

@@NekoiNemo "perfected" lmao. D2 is great, but old, and it didn't age all that well for most people to enjoy the gameplay. PoE is a grind hell that is pretty much actively hostile to casual players. Meanwhile this is a great entry level ARPG. Not too complicated, decently challenging if you want it to be, and decently fun. And has brand name recognition and friendly aesthetics for younger audience to get into the genre.

@@NekoiNemo you go into it hoping to make a game that's good. If people saw a genre with two very highly rated games, and didn't even try, the gaming industry would be dead. Why bother making any other Shooters when Halos 1-3 exist. Why bother making a platformer when games like Mario exist. Why bother making an open world rpg when the Witcher 3 exists. In Minecraft dungeons case, Microsoft probably just wanted to Mojang to make a new game, so it's not as good. But just because really good games already exist in a genre, doesn't mean developers shouldn't try. And you also mentioned how their perfect until someone innovates. However, by the logic you used later, if there are already perfect games why try making something lesser, people won't innovate that genre. If a genre has been "perfected", new games should still be made, because you could still make a really fun game that people enjoy, in the case of the games you used as well. Eventually people can get bored of them, but if other games popped up in that genre, not dungeons, then they could start fresh in a genre they love with a different twist

@@Shyl1ght This right here. It wasn't made for this reason, but I would gladly introduce (and did) my younger siblings and family to a simple stripped down game like this so they can grip the basic gameplay before moving them into PoE or Diablo (any of them). It's cute and fun enough younger, much less complex or mature gamers can enjoy it. Still a deflated woopie cushions worth of farts as far as being a real game.
