Mojang's New Minecraft Tutorials Are Weird...

Thank you Redmagic for sponsoring this video! bit.ly/3W76gbg
Join the Discord: / discord
A few months ago, Mojang created 16 Minecraft tutorials on minecraft.net, teaching things from punching a tree, to surviving your first night. From Redstone to Command Blocks. But are these tutorials actually any good?

[@captainpolio867]

I can guarantee the reason that observers and comparators where not talked about are because the production team behind these videos don't know how they work

[@gunpowder7777]

Maybe they tried and it didn’t work like expected because it’s on bedrock

[@BlasterRay]

@@gunpowder7777 For how little detail they go into components for, it shouldn't matter if its bedrock or java components

[@RadFlunder]

@@gunpowder7777 I always played java, but because my friends all have bedrock, i wanted to try it too and i have to say that redstone is working like in java. But the miss of bud switch and the commands in gerneral are complete garbage!

[@vibaj16]

@@RadFlunder i played bedrock for a few hours. I knew the redstone is wacky, so I decided to just make something that wouldn't rely on pistons or timings. What I noticed was that it was incredibly slow on a multiplayer server with only a couple dozen people.

[@RadFlunder]

Yeah, you're totally right about the first part, but you're definitely wrong about the server thing. There are sometimes 30,000 players on the hive with no problems at all.

[@GabboStuff]

bruh mojang doesn't even know how to play their own game

[@Random--Games]

i feel like these videos were paid to make by some random people who installed minecraft 3 days before

[@AceH.-jk5kn]

microsoft probably ordered it

[@Yegor_Mechanic]

The thing is, looking at their streams and the Minecraft Live, the developers themselves _do_ know how to play, but for whatever reason the people that make those kinds of promotional content don't even know how to waterclutch :/

Mojang isn't a person, this stuff is probably just made by some random guys that work there.

[@MidnightDoom777]

Did they at least say that Bedrock and Java redstone are very different, because if not, some new players are definitely going to make the mistake of building a java build on bedrock

[@anon9469]

They "did"... in the sense that they completely ignored the existence of Java and solely addressed what Bedrock is like.

[@DragonTheOneDZA]

Java doesn't exist. Only bedrock This is Microsoft making it. Not Mojang

[@donutstudios6353]

that is literally a part of every bedrock player's minecraft experience lol when i was 7 playing bedrock on my ipad i looked up how to build a rocketship and i was like 'huh why are they lying'

I remember when the character creator was added to bedrock and I was checking it out and was so confused when Alex blinked. I waited to watch again and make sure I wasn't seeing things. Now I mostly play java but whenever I'm on bedrock and I see a character blink I'm just like "Oh yeah forgot they did that now"

Mojang can’t squeeze money out of Java edition, so they push Bedrock as hard as they can

[@mjcox242]

Heres a take. I like the bedrock client but hate the bedrock server. I would gladly play on a Minecraft version thats the bedrock client with a java server. It fixes readstone and only has a small amount of hacks in the translation layer

[@Lulleebee]

I disagree that it's a good thing telling new players how they can use blocks in different ways. That's imo the whole point of Minecraft, figuring this sh*t out on your own. If you're going to just tell people you take away this creativity. Edit: This was the conclusion of the video too at the very end.

Honestly, the only important tutorials for Minecraft would be the absolute basics, like placing blocks, movement, mining and crafting and maybe how to get to the nether. The ruined portals made it a bit easier to understand for new players, but it is still catastophically hard to understand.

[@Lampe2020]

7:47 Wait, I just realized… You're using Shotcut too? XD I thought no-one popular used it!

[@TheaVanherst]

These videos aren't made by mojang btw. Most companies hire out smaller external firms to make videos, to which THEY then hand out to a bunch of freelancers. It's the same type of industry that manages social media accounts. People at Wendy's don't manage Wendy's twitter, it's just a random guy a marketing firm give money for X amount of posts. Videos are most likely made by a uni student who gets paid minimal wage whom has never played minecraft and doesn't know how the observer works - only for the next bunch of similar videos uploaded to THEN tell the next guy the same thing. It's just a chain is disconnected information being spread out from person to person, hence the video only being about pistons. Because that's what was uploaded 10 years ago.

[@goblinounours]

If Mojang were smart, they would make a collaborational effort (or a sponsor thing) with their most well known content creators to provide tutorial videos about the aspects they're the best at. I could see people like Grian making a video about building and color-gradients, Mumbo Jumbo making an introductionary video about Redstone, etc. You'd get quality videos that are fun to watch, made by the people for the people.

I am not surprised. This is effectively a marketing thing, at least as far as the entities involved (Microsoft and Mojang). And marketing always messes things up. My impression is it was a task given to someone in marketing rather than those closely related to the development. The ones that were good (ish) were probably the result of 'hey, you play and know how to make things pretty, right?"

I haven't read through any of the rest of the comments yet - but one thing I did dislike about the videos about Biome Discovery (near 7:00), is that not once did it tell you how to FIND said biomes. Yes, it mentioned the biomes, but not how, when or where to find them. I would have appreciated that if I was a new player. I take it for granted now that you walk/fly/run/rail/boat/portal, but a new player is unlikely to know all of these different ways to get to biomes. Sometimes too little information is nearly as bad as too much. Other than that, I didn't have any real criticism of the videos, aside from them generally not going far enough - given the target audience, I guess there's only so far you can go.
