This didnt aged well after the recent community post

I thought he was gonna talk about how copper spawns replacing iron ones ruined progression because you can’t go deep down without armor, and leather armor is like using paper for a shield, leaving you either stuck, or having to rely on villagers which are the dumbest mob ever since they can’t pathfind their own home doors. Also mending is ESSENTIAL until they can fix the anvil issue, because grindstones are only good for getting weaponsmiths, let’s be honest. I do agree on your difficulty mechanics though, and yes, I use lava against mob armies.

I honestly thought he was gonna talk about how copper replacing iron ore spawns ruined progression. You can’t go deep down without armor, and leather armor is like using paper for a shield, leaving you either stuck, or having to rely on villagers which are the dumbest mobs in game without a doubt considering they can’t pathfind their way into their own houses. I’m lucky the trade balance can be switched off, otherwise, I’d just cheat the worst way possible, turn to creative mode, get basic iron stuff, and other materials, and switch back into survival! Also, mending is kinda ESSENTIAL until the anvil situation is fixed, because grindstones are only good for getting weaponsmiths, let’s be honest! I do agree with the difficulty mechanics though, that seems fair, and yes, I use lava against mob armies.

this video litterly made me sick to my stomach, i feel like imma vomit rn, idk if it was from thevid but its not helping

I think Minecraft vs terraria is truly horizontal progression vs vertical progression

Very well constructed arguments. I feel this game is something altogether new and special as an experience. Besides I've felt minecraft has become corporate slop anyways.

Tfc

I think one solution could be if you have a hero of the village status on, mending will be unlocked for the duration of the status.

The only Minecraft youtubers I currently still watch are Python and smaller creators that make Minecraft Better Than Adventure or Magical Let's plays......it's just more chill and old-school feeling.

Does it work on steam deck?

saying Vintage Story copied TFC is like saying Cyberpunk copied GTA, they are all unique and enjoyable experiences in their own right, survival mechanics are semi based off real survival mechanics but in a gamified form, there isn't an infinite number of different ways to make survival mechanics that are fun and enjoyable and still faithful

You know what? If TerraFirmaGreg was a bust, why not vintage story to fulfil my Minecraft hardcore survival with realistic survival systems needs!!!

I've only watched like 10 minutes of this game but one thing I noticed is that its survival mechanics are better than in minecraft. I mean, why does minecraft think you can break trees with your bare hands? It's also 3D, making it a good building platform. I feel like this game probably does not have a redstone equivalent, so minecraft would still win in terms of automation.

You sir are the reason I got this game You are the reason I, after streaming to my discord friends, are the reason several are considering getting this game because it looks new, onvenrive, and so immersive. Thank you (Esp for the 75% hunger drain tip cause wow if this isn't 100% then I don't wanna play with 100% hunger ever LOL)

I have yet to play minecraft, but looking at the parts where it said on his screen that his enchanting skill increased and there is swordsman level and health bar etc it looks interesting. Is this part of the main game or i have to crazily mod?

"I trapped 5000 players in a 1 to 1 recreation of GitMo" is such a deeply cutting analysis of modern KZfaq oof

It's always nice seeing how different people think up different solutions. For me, I almost always have Silent's Tools installed, and I always have whatever the highest tier pick I have and a stone pick on me, since I can use the stone pick to do the bulk of the mining and then repair it when I need to, and use the high tier pick for mining ores. It keeps my stone tools relevant while continuously pushing forward my better tools, and since I can always swap out the handle, grip, tip, etc, I can also keep making the stone tool incrementally better.

I would not hate the idea of them taking the bedrock version of the game overhauling it with tones of new features, improving every part of the game possibly adding new dimensions, support for servers, modding api and then releasing it as Minecraft 2. They would make so much money if they did this right they would make a tone of money.

I mean I have been playing Minecraft for 10 years and its still fun, playing with friends or playing with mod pack’s really improves the experience.

The devs of Vintage Story were Minecraft modders at one point plus they even stated they took inspiration from Terrafirmacraft. This isn’t a bad thing. I played MC for years and found TFC pretty much right after I started playing MC. It made the whole game soooo much better. I refused to play MC without TFC. Then the dev for TFC dropped updating the mod and that’s when Vintage Story came on the scene. Now it truly is its own game and I love it even more than the newer versions of TFC developed by TFC fans. I still love TFC but to be honest, it’s built on MC code which sucks. VS gives me everything I want with a better engine ❤

This is boss

Vintage story started out as a MC mod

Mojang: best I can give you is another mob vote

My favorite Minecraft mod is Terrafirmacraft, which is the predecessor to Vintage Story! Unfortunately since I have a Mac I am unable to play this incredible game, but I make up for it by playing a shit ton of TFC

Minecraft is about enjoying live as it is, to paint and shape your world as you se fit, to make stuff for the sake of it, to paint the canva and be proud of it whenever you see it again, at least, that's what it means for me

I feel like this is heavily derrivative from Any Austin videos while not giving any credit. Frankly sadge.

I'd love to see you review vintage story like this. The progression in that game is definitely great

Bioluminescent mushrooms and mooshrooms on the mushroom biome would be such a perfect addition as well

and then the discussion of terraria....i get that you don't want minecraft to be terraria. But that desire is incongruous with the suggestions you're putting out. the more minecraft focuses on extrinsic progression, the more it will become like terraria. you say you want minecraft to be more like minecraft, and you back this up by saying that you want them to invest more in the mechanics they've been implementing... But those aren't what makes minecraft minecraft. at its core minecraft is a sandbox with elements of other games. things like ancient cities, desert temples, ocean monuments those are all adventure game elements. but they're watered down, more open ended, because minecraft is a sandbox, not an adventure game. equipment tiers, enchanting and villager trades are all RPG elements. the mechanical side of RPGs...not the story side. but again, more watered down, more open ended. because minecraft is a sandox not an RPG. the hunger bar and mob spawning mechanics are survival elements. but again, are watered down, they add a bit of spice but they're interact-able, manipulate-able. because minecraft is a sandbox, not a survival game. I think the most obvious way to illustrate what im talking about is how you characterized the challenges in the game. you make the claim that the reward for a challenge should be proportional to the challenge itself. but the only rewards you focus on are extrinsic ones. you imply that strongholds need a redesign because their loot is "mid tier" even though they lead up to the "final boss". ignoring the fact that...even in games where extrinsic progression is the main focus, they don't tend to throw the best end game gear right into your path along the main quest. generally for the best gear you need to go out of your way to acquire it. But, more importantly, in spite of the end dragon being the "final boss" its not even remotely the designed end for the game. i mean, beating the end dragon opens up (relatively) easy access to 2 new block types, the best equipment in the game, and...however the heck you want to categorize shulker boxes. I'll grant you "the end" is not the best optics in advertising it. but the point is that the "final boss'" of the game, by design, doesn't actually mean the same thing as it does in most games that have "bosses". you called it the "final boss" as though there was no game after it. which is obviously not true. I...hope i';ve been clear. Im not really opposed to getting new equipment types, especially if they're unique. But i feel like certain elements of the minecraft community have developed a some kind of a stigma against the features in the game that cater to the building portion of the game. that focus more on the sandbox element. and i think it often leads to toxic behavior. largely spawned from the assumption that "beat the ender dragon" is the primary goal in the game. which leads to harsh critique of any feature that either doesn't contribute to that. copper is lame because its not orange iron. or do anything else (generally) besides looking pretty. ocean monuments need to be updated because they "dont have rewards..." it just feels so backwards to me considering what minecraft is at its core.

ehhhh, i don't buy the argument that ruined portals are "more useful" to a player. one of the most common problems i see in how people evaluate asymmetric features (that is features that aren't meant to accomplish the same thing) is that they either fail to, or refuse to take into account goals. Take the ruined portals vs ocean monuments example. you claim that ruined portals inherently have more to offer due to their loot chests....and yet what if the player doesn't really care about that loot? sure, i can get some obsidian....so what? if im not currently interested in getting to the nether or using obsidian as a building block, then why is that inherently more "useful" to me than anything else? you're specifically framing the goal of "getting to the nether and potentially getting a bit of iron" as primary and eschewing other goals such as "yo, i think it'd be dope to have some guardians in an aquarium" or "i love the way sea lanterns look, i gotta get some to use as light sources around my base" in an even larger twist of irony, you're assuming extrinsic goals are more important than the intrinsic ones...by yourself. a simplified version of this claim is that "because ocean monuments don't advance extrinsic goals, they are inherently worse structures than structures that do" which seems to contradict what you actually believe. you acknowledge that minecraft is meant to be focused on intrinsic goals. or at the very least that intrinsic goals are a huge part of minecraft. I don't say this to lambast you, i get it. its an easy mistake to make. I've seen a critique about minecraft that it sort of encourages the player the pursue extrinsic goals only to abandon them after the dragon fight. and while i don't neccesarily agree with that, i can see how people would come to that conclusion. Im just pointing out the irony of critiquing the minecraft features that are purely there for intrinsic goals, while talking about how much extrinsic goals have grown.

awesome vid just emailed you

Within the last two years the game has changed significantly im not sure what the point in being so negative is supposed to accomplish. So much of what you want or disappointed with is so inconsequential to the game for most. If you only play bedrock maaaaaaybe there's room to complain but the amount of FREE content they added is substantial. So what if the promised content took longer to come out then promised? You're not paying for updates. They delivered on most of what they promised.

Would Batreaux, or "biatruxe" like you call him, be considered unemployed when he becomes human ?

I think your proposed villager changes are pretty much perfect. I've had imaginary arguments with myself about villagers being such a hassle, all of which include trading hall slave boxes and transportation. Instead of villagers following bells, maybe they should be able to be transported with camels, but villager comfort combined with biome based trades would be great. It would also incentivize getting better at building considering how you'd need to make your own village.

Nah we'll just add an colorful ambarresment like SNIFFER cuz MC is for kidz (C) Mojang apparently

well he passed his 2 week phase

Would be nice to see one about Lurelin village eventually 😄

does beedle count? he technically doesn't live on skyloft, he flies his shop over to a different island at night and camps out there until morning. cool video either way tho !!

I mean super excited for this but weird how you got both better and worse. Both more professional and less. Also as someone who binged your videos you could do with just writing down the rules and showing them at the beginning of the video then having to go through all of them everytime. Less annoying for long time viewers
