Darkness based on height was actually a feature! If you were deep enough the game started to render a black fog that made deeper parts of caves darker, even with torches. It was called 'Void Fog' and it used to reach its peak at around Y8, when that low the game would greatly limit your render distance and particles floated around near bedrock. According to the wiki, it was removed from the game in 1.8 because of performance issues and it seems players didn't like it so much.

I also really liked void fog! But it wasn't added at the Halloween Update, instead it was added much later - in Beta 1.8. I don't know exactly why it was removed, but I guess that both because of gameplay and performance compromises that it introduced. First - this void fog is not only a fog, it also has its own particles that look similar to those gray dots that get rendered in the water, but with much bigger density and scale - basically entire void is filled with them and when you're near the bedrock nearly half of the volume that the game currently cares about is filled with those weird dots and each requires some form of processing, the fact that back then all particles on the level of game logic were actual entites similar to mobs wasn't helpful either. And second - the fog itself was cool-looking but it wasn't convenient, many players reported it being unnecessarily frustrating gameplay-wise (I guess because deep tunnels are used not only to dig diamonds and redstone, but also to make slime farms and buildings in general) while not adding that much to the atmosphere

This video has a lot of weird points in it. Overall it's a good timeline, but like one example is when you say everyone decided that Minecraft didn't need music...but no one ever said that, Notch in fact says the opposite of "I wonder what music does fit Minecraft". The only thing said was Notch's music doesn't fit Minecraft. Another point in the video continues the theme of you saying something that is disproven by the background visuals. That is when you mention Notch planned to release an expansion the the game, but the bolded text in the background says it would be free to those who own the game. So clearly he used expansion in place of what we would now call an update.

Not gonna lie, secret friday updates and being able to chat with the dev was a blast back then. It's why i love indie games so much, most of the times you join a server with the dev, ask him why something works the way it does, and get a super in depth explanation. Or you can tell them why you don't like their new update and have a great discussion with them. Notch was a cheeky guy. It's hard to blame him for "breaking promises", since much of the progress on the game was either announced or undone in chats. He'd promise a feature, test it out, and find it was either bad for gameplay or bad to code, and thusly scrap it on the spot telling the people currently in chat. On the flipside, someone might come up with a fix for the element, and it would be added back. I think that's how hunger went down but I might be mistaken. I don't think anyone has anything negative to say on minecraft during the post notch, but still indipendant years. On the other hand, it's much less easy to forgive one of the biggest corporations in the world for their lack of transparency regarding new features ( or lack of new features )

Imagine getting someone who literally spent their own time to improve your game purely so everyone can have more fun with it out of pure passion, them offering to work on the game with you for free. And you decide to say “no it’s a solo project, actually you’re not allowed to do that” and ban modding and later revoke that decision and also the decision to make it a solo project which became the 2 single biggest reasons why Minecraft is as big as it is today. Causing said person to completely leave and quit everything they were doing out of passion

35:14 notch isn’t really lying here, he just got sidetracked. At this point in development minecraft was a solo project, games take a fuck ton of time and one guy can have a burning desire to add something one day and not be able to implement it in time before motivation wanes, or more backend stuff gets in the way. And, a lot of the things he said would never be added got added when mc was being worked on by a whole team, of course some plans would change.
@carso1500Ай бұрын
Yeah that too, like initially the game was just supposed to be some small indie game developed in a year and notch was basically just throwing random ideas to the wall and seeing what sticks It was nothing beyond that, yeah he collaborated and asked for help here and there with the coding but 99% of early Minecraft was made by him alone and it was always supposed to be just a small project until it became the biggest game in the world

Seeing the early version of Minecraft looking like the end lands in Minecraft that we see today (with the big wall with cheese holes), then go to not having it, only to finally have it in the game now-- All without me ever really seeing them it really makes me wonder if they actually still exist or if I just hallucinated it all. It's quite neat to see them bring back something that came from early concepts for the game!

Interesting fact. The lava grief bug in multiplayer lead to a relativity popular gamemode that still has active servers in the classic edition of the game today called lava survival. You basically have 5 minutes to build a base to protect your self in a classic server before the lava starts flowing.

1:00:00 Those features were actually added temporarily and then reverted. The light-level at which monster spawns were possible did increase the further down you went, which meant that this update rendered many player bases down there uninhabitable. The lanters that were mentioned were the newly added jack-o-lantern, which were quite ugly and bulky compared to torches, or you could use the newly available glowstone (though there were no official item names at the time and many called the dust sulfur) which was very hard to get and dropped one dust per block iirc.
@TheDolphinTunaАй бұрын
Tbe discussions about the infinite world debate got me thinking. The old Minectaft (“classic”) worlds were small and jam-packed. There was always someone’s creation to see and build next to. Your humble build might be located next to the pixel art of Megaman, across from a luxurious palace, and behind a tasteless and towering sculpture of the male anatomy. Sure, in some parts of modern Minecraft that amateur art museum feel is still present. But it doesn’t really come up organically anymore- at least not like it used to back in the early days.

Playing Minecraft: Legacy for consoles made me understand how infinite worlds aren't a necessity for Minecraft's identity. Matter of fact, a lot of the speculated "negatives" for infinite terrain that people proposed are genuine issues that the game currently faces that the Legacy versions avoided. I'm not sure if Minecraft is better or worse for having infinite terrain, but I _do_ know that the game is just fine without it.

@@pepearown4968 tbh those are issues that only appeared after world became infinite, so features were added that made use of it being infinite. I do agree though that infinite worlds are way better as they create this adventure and exploration aspect of the game (Even though the game itself barely makes use of it, specifically because of one of the issues pointed out back then: no supply and demand issues as all resources are virtually infinite. Also, because you can find pretty much everything everywhere, there is usually little reason to explore other than like, finding a stronghold or something gimmicky like some biome specific mob.

Gentle reminder that Notch wanted to add coral and actual fish mobs, but the only thing he ever did was add in fishing, and what’s now the cod item. It took years for us to get actual coral blocks and fish mobs, when he had stepped down from development entirely. Features like crying obsidian and lecterns that were proposed for early (beta or early official release) Minecraft were also finally added in newer versions, too. And, pandas were a long time idea the developers didn’t add until 1.14, even if they’re pretty much useless. Anyways, he was just as bad, if not worse, than the few slip ups Mojang recently had with the wild update, and their large backlog of mob and biome vote content.
@realkekzАй бұрын
What I would say is that Notch treated Minecraft like an indie game, which it was when he was making it, and under Jeb it slowly became more like a franchise. Indie game devs playing around with concepts always just do whatever they think sounds fun, they have bad ideas that get left behind, they change their mind, etc. The reason why there is so much nostalgia for this era of Minecraft is because it was small, cozy, fresh, then it quickly boomed, creating a type of golden age for the game. Notch is a flawed person, and a flawed developer, but he layed the groundwork for what Minecraft is, it's no mistake that they haven't added any new dimensions past what Notch added, it's no mistake that they haven't changed the core gameplay loop, it's no mistake that they haven't added any new modes or alternative ways of play, "fortress mode" let's say, it's no mistake that they limit player choice and creativity in so many respects, it's because for as flawed and even douchey as Notch was and is, he had and has a very good sense for game design, even without a plan, and he was probably right to step away when he did, both times, but everything after him is either a refinement of or a feature tacked onto his ideas. It almost feels unfair to just say everything ever added by Mojang is in debt to Notch, but it is, in a very big way.
@pepearown4968Ай бұрын
Them not adding a 4th dimension is because they want to finish the 3 we already have now, not “in respect of Notch’s groundwork”. I’m sure that, after an End update, Mojang may consider adding another dimension, since they’ve teased it twice with April Fool’s updates.
