This video is meant for redstoners. The snapshot is not. I was not speaking on who the video was meant for. I was speaking on who minecraft is meant for. Personally speaking i am not a redstoner, though i do watch quite a few redstone videos. The criticisms i fully understand. It certainly takes away from the depth of redstones abilities. This is his video and he has every right to be upset over this. That being said, I find it comical how he doesn’t even consider the average players, or heck even an average viewers perspective. For example youtube pushed this video to me through recomendations, I saw the title and thumbnail and got curious as I do every once in a while with redstone videos, and clicked. Plenty of people in my shoes need a lot more context, and would be utterly confused by the video.

[@legojoker7552]

I think Mumbojumbo had the best discussion regarding QC. If they added an immovable transparent block, no one would care about this singular QC change, and hopefully it would help decrease lag since now every dust wouldn’t necessarily lead to several extra block update checks.

The "knows better" argument has got to be my most despised take in every game ever Thats not how game dev works, at all The devs know how to use their tools the intended way the best They are aware that people use them in unintended ways, but they are not testing their code with the several thousand unintended us cases of all their tools They test their code how the tools are meant to be used on paper 99% of the time, the people who have poured thousands of hours into your game, are going to know it better, then the person that has spent years putting it together And thats just an unintuitive fact of game dev as a whole The players spend thousands of hours working with and perfecting the usage of all of your tools, while you spend 100 times that puting the tools together Since it takes so much more time to put the tools together, you dont get the chance to use them all to their 100% fullest, or even discover what they are really capable of, despite having made them So in the end, the players end up knowing your game better then you do I can not stress this enough Mojang does not know whats best The community and the people who play the game Know whats best

[@DeputyFish]

i agree with the first part. but its 100% better the devs know whats better for longevity. the players might know that interaction better. but. learning to use the Penny-farthing, and being mad that you now have to use the objectively better Bicycle. you dont blame the creator who made the better bike. thats more useful, more easy to learn, faster, and more accessible in every way. you just go damn. guess im using that new one and relearn

[@Postman00]

Just 1% of currently online players (~1,000,000 x 1% = 10,000) spending a hundred hours each playing with Redstone would add up to a million hours of play time that can discover edge cases and "unintended" use cases. This knowledge is then shared and multiplied by KOLs. It doesn't matter for how long or how large a development team has worked on a game, it's actually statistically impossible for the developers to know a game this popular better than the player base.

[@cn8229]

It's case by case. Often popular community demands aren't actually good for the game (speaking generally, not necessarily in minecraft's case). And in closed-source games the devs often have a much better understanding of technical limitations than members of the community. And sometimes (especially in indie development) the direction a dev wants to go with the game is just different from what the community might want out of it. But yeah, "x knows better" is often a pretty dumb argument to make. It's a bit of a self-report, by making it you're admitting that you're not qualified to speak on the subject.

[@guavapaste]

Yes, BUT You have to bear in mind that sometimes the way certain tools work is bad. Not in the sense of "it wasn't intended to do that", but rather "if it works like that it will definely break something". For example, the reason why minecart stacking doesn't work anymore is because stacking entities in general can lead to a lot of performance issues, since that's a lot of models being loaded at the same time in the same space colliding collectively with eachother while running collectively multiple instances of their AI, all while taking God knows how much RAM with all the other things that are being loaded like the chunks and other entities. It was definitively not the best choice, but it makes sense to attempt to prevent the player from pushing the game too far, because more often than not the user will do something they aren't supposted to do and cause a lot of issues later (learned that from a programming book). So in a sense, the developers know what they are doing when they make changes like these, but as you said yourself, they aren't usually doing it with the community in mind, and more to prevent people from breaking the game. (Although some changes are completely useless even in this criteria)

General principle taken from computer science that some of these redstone changes violate: backwards-compatibility. If you are gonna break it, you better have a really good reason and no acceptable alternatives, or you’re going to piss off your users. Redstoners are the Minecraft community’s version of computer programmers, so a lot of the principles of CS development apply to it. A related principle Mojang devs should keep in mind when making changes to red stone: in the words of Linus Torvolds “a bug that people rely on isn’t a bug, it’s a feature”. Quasi-connectivity is a perfect example of that principle.

This isn't the Linux kernel, so don't invoke Linus as if he speaks for you. As a professional computer programmer, and a redstoner, I can see both sides to this. What you don't see is how it limits what Mojang can do with the code, by being forced to keep bugs. But what they need to do is offer an alternative.

it's basically programming (thus complexity depends on how compact you [have to] make it), thus depending on how major the change to existing mechanics it could even be possible to break the pressure plate next to a door mechanic or it could not impact anything. the problematic part is you don't know for sure it didn't break anything you did until you tested everything again, depending on a contraption's complexity such a test could take up to days or even weeks of fulltime work (because every possible input has to be tested at least once better multiple times, the contraption has to process it and spit out the expected output every time, which even tickwarped could take several minutes per testrun depending the player's hardware), especially with randomness becoming a possible issue, you'd have to make sure every wiring has been used several times without deviation (and even then you could just have been lucky). if instead of random they'd make that part directional, it would still break many contraptions but the work testing and trouble shooting it would be reduced massively as the behaviour is reliably consistent instead of random. it's similar to how programs written for Windows won't necessarily run at all on Windows for ARM, heck or like programs for Windows might break due to a Windows update. with the difference being you usually paid to use those programs while only a very small number of redstoners get paid enough for the content they create to do that fulltime.

[@blablabla7796]

To be fair, the reason Sculk sensors didn’t become ubiquitous with wireless redstone is because it’s connected to content that frankly still scares a lot of people to even get close to. The only thing that would really get more people to use redstone is either a pretty big overhaul to redstone (like what redpower used to be or a cog system like Create) or make redstone play a more central role in Minecraft progression (just like how tech modded Minecraft has everyone do some sort of ore processing). As someone who’s been in and out of playing Minecraft for almost its entire history, it is a bit weird how redstone progression works. Minecraft has you running around making all sorts of weird farms and doing odd tasks. From an outsider’s POV, why does wiring require you to raise bees, mine in a hell dimension and breed humanoid creatures? It’s just all too weird and contrived for the average player. Which is why I think the vast majority of players just play Minecraft like it’s adventure mode+. Mine some ore, fight some mobs and build an ugly house.

[@MakusinMeringue]

also the sculk sensors are less renewable, forgot if they made them renewable at any point

[@insertcreativenamehere492]

or use creative mode. Most redstoners just use creative mode because the progression in survival makes certain mechanics difficult/impossible to exploit. For example, netherite blocks are the only blast-resistant piston-movable blocks in the game. Mumbo Jumbo has a video where he makes a fortress where the walls are pure netherite blocks to exploit this unique property. This would literally take years to obtain in survival, so people just don't.

Redstone dust could be the cheaper, safer thing, whereas copper wires could hurt the player like cactus if touched.

As a casual redstoner, that really loves to do redstone when I play minecraft, but I play minecraft once or twice a year, Locational redstone stuff: I like it, I think it makes it more understandable for the avarage player, even if it might confuse the top most redstoners in the world. I just dont like how lever position affects stuff, I think it should be solely based on redstone power and not on lever positioning. When debbugging, I would never think of lever positioning and I dont think most people would, but you could redo the whole system using solely redstone power, and if redstone power is the same, its random, I'd like that. I would never ever think of positionality so if something I made randomly came across that, I would just be stuck. Minecart stuff: Most stuff are cool, I really don't get why mojan would remove minecart stacking, no one saw that as a problem, for a casual player, theyll almost never try that, and for the tryhard redstoners its useful, so I dont get why you would remove that. QC stuff: As a casual redstoners, I don't ever really use QC (as most redstoners don't, only the big brain redstone youtubers really use that and everyone else copies their stuff), QC is more of an annoying thing that seems to randomly turn on stuff when I dont want them, so Im not affected by this change, but QC is so ingrained in minecraft redstone that I definitly agree that its a problem to basicly kinda remove it like this, specially considering how much stuff that are probably already built in people's worlds will just break now. For the arguments you said at the end: Just fix your stuff: I agree with you and I'd reiterate how that would break stuff that is already built in people's world, giving a lot of people a lot of trouble rebuilding stuff. But it makes it easier: While what you said about youtubers bringing people to redstone is true, the easier redstone is also true, I had never even attempted wireless redstone before the skulk sensor, now its something I do pretty regularly, easier redstone not only atracts more people to redstone, but it also fixes one of technical minecraft's biggest problems, that is that people just copy stuff, copying stuf is boring, and its no surprise that most people see building farms as a chore, copying is boring, making ur own farm is fun, simpler mechanics help with that. Ever since 1.14, Ive always made my own iron farms, cause now they are so simple to make that I can make it myself and get a lot of iron, before I had to copy. Mojang knows better: Agree with you lol

[@ZaCloud-Animations___she-her]

VERY good point. With simpler redstone, it'd be easier for a newbie like me to actually figure it out for myself, instead of having to copy builds all the time, which I only find tedious & frustrating.

I agree with QC being unwanted/annoying - I don't make redstone videos, but I *do* make redstone contraptions of my own, and the only time QC gets used is when I didn't want it to occur at all and have to redesign something to avoid it. Normally redstone works by blocks being powered, but as far as I can understand it QC is effectively "powered air" and spits in the face of "I *don't* want this thing powered" logic.

[@dylanjonesSD]

I really like the redstone update order with the randomness better than locationality. I think running a circuit 3-4 times is a better sanity check than recreating the same machine in 4 different rotations and then reflecting it as well. The changes to block updates need to be rolled back nearly entirely. Dust needs to be able to update pistons it runs next to, or it makes redstone much more difficult to deal with

[@U.Inferno]

I also think the introduction of Signal Strength Priority is very useful and intuitive in a way that adds functionality rather than takes it away.

[@stokhosursus]

3:48 I pose an additional question: Which is more intuitive: device works consistently regardless of position and orientation in world or device breaks if you copy and move it to another place? My vote is the first. The next question is: should the length of redstone have any impact on the triggering of redstone components? This is what is consistent across other uses of redstone. Should redstone traveling from north to south act differently than redstone traveling east to west? This seems like strange behavior and an expectation from redstone. Finally, what should the behavior be for a corner case when a single lever triggers a line of redstone that splits and goes to two different pistons with the same length of redstone dust? I see two possible options: randomly choose or both fire simultaneously and break the pistons. I think both would be reasonable outcomes, although the second would likely piss off a lot more people by physically breaking their existing builds instead of just logically breaking most builds. There is clearly some confusion or an issue (bug) with respect to the impact of lever direction in the more complex cases, but without further and more extensive testing, it’s hard to determine which it is. Likely it’s a bug that should be fixed and got overlooked when updating the redstone dust itself. Only bug reports will indicate which.

[@spyseefan975]

its better to have something be possible only with quirks than to not have it be possible at all

[@stokhosursus]

@@spyseefan975I concur when possible. There’s clearly a drive towards parity and having an easily maintainable code base for the health and longevity of the game and to simplify the amount of work that is required of current and future developers. There’s nothing worse than having a bug you cannot fix because the code is too difficult to figure out or because the code is too fragile. That being said, I have no doubts that the developers of Minecraft love this game as much as anyone else and it’s difficult to make everyone happy. Choices will have to be made. Thankfully, these are merely experiments right now where they can try out new things, get feedback from players, and figure out how to accomplish what they wish to accomplish and keep as much of the community as happy as they can.

I personally think that the “redstone dust block update”-thing (everything in red in your video) is just an oversight from Mojang. An unintentional consequence of the redstone dust performance updates. An edge case they forgot to test for.

[@pietjan6164]

Honestly, quasi-connectivity in its current form sucks. A new player would never figure out this mechanic unless they are doing excessive tinkering. This change does streamline the learning process of redstone, but that does not mean it is good. A new block or something you could add to a block to get the same mechanic while making more sense for a newer player to logically deduce by themselves, instead of being forced to go off platform to learn how redstone works will always be a better approach. In my opinion, Redstone needs what crafting has gotten a long time ago. You no longer need to go off platform to learn and know how to craft certain items, so why does redstone still suffer from this issue? I LOVE how they are trying to make the redstone bode well for new players by introducing/reworking mechanics that seem more like a bug than a feature, but without giving players the ability to do similar or a more responsive version of what was previously possible it is completely astonishing how they take away instead of reflavouring it.

[@LogOffAlready]

I don't think Redstone will ever be as accessible as crafting. Learning Redstone is a lot like learning a mini programming language; unless you're really into it, you'll outsource for big projects and use pre-made designs for little ones. But I agree with you that there should be a dedicated QC block, and preferably, it should be a slab to break as few things as possible. The QC change was to reduce lag, but if they had a block that acted the same but used less obtuse/multi-layered processes, it could probably still work

[@I0NE007]

Just to be clear here: I have watched the whole video and I'm aware of all the utility of QC and the like. I like being able to use some of the funky behavior like QC, but it can also be really annoying when it happens on accident. For people who don't know about it, they will be completely confused as to why their circuit isn't working as expected which can be frustrating. I think that more consistent behavior (especially directionality and locationality) will make it much easier for people to build and share their designs with others. Unintuitive behavior only causes confusion for the vast majority of people who don't know about all the quirks of redstone. With the new updates, I hope that Mojang will make redstone more user-friendly, intuitive, and reduce the learning curve. Making designs that utilize QC allows advanced players to make more complex contraptions and can ultimately be better for many people. I just don't think we should have inconsistent and unexpected behavior in something that's supposed to be logical.

[@Dzekin]

Yeah I see your point. Then maybe it's better to just add a separate set of pistons, idk, could be deepslate/blackstone one, maybe called heavy pistons or smth, that would have Bedrock's functionalities like lack of QC (cause idk, let's say "logically" speaking, the QC is too weak to affect the heavier pistons)? Ofc then all pistons on Bedrock would have to be converted into heavy ones, and the base, stone version would have to be given the Java's functionality? Ofc could also be done the other way around. The problem also lies in the fact that new redstone stuff does not attract many ppl to try out redstone (if anything, it could make them less interested, because "oh there's so many components to learn") and that most ppl get into redstone by watching, recreating the designs of others, tweaking a few things here and there, and thus slowly seeping into changing the circuitry, learning how individual components work. That means that by making redstone more annoying for Redstoners on either platform usually just means that less cool contraptions can be made for newer versions, thus actually staggering or lowering the amount of ppl doing redstone. A good example is how you have designs that worked for, like, 10 years, and now suddenly do not work and ppl who just got into minecraft are just spamming the 10yo videos with "does not work", "pls I use you other designs, fix this" - many will go the "easy" way out by asking the author (who might not even play MC anymore) to adjust the design to new version rather than trying to thinker it themselves. (btw, the side-effect of such comments might be that the video will start getting dislikes (or even insulting comments) for not working now, even thou it did work for so long, and thus also possibly lowering the chance that people playing the older versions will try that specific tutorial, cause "comments said it did not work and I don't have the time to try and check if it works for myself")

[@Dzekin]

@@SioxerNikita Well I agree that updates should not be based on KZbinrs getting annoying comments, I'm just that in terms of redstone it's probably a better approach to talk with Redstoners on what and how to possibly tackle, rather than doing it without/against their input (the insulting comments on YTbers' videos point is just pointing out that that's one of the side effects of some redstone changes). And that's why this is a snapshot, why the devs are asking for feedback. Which is a good thing! In terms of the redstone being buggy - yeah, it is true, from certain points of view - but what many Redstoners are pointing out ( - aside from the fact that some bugs were so helpful that they became officially or nonofficially a feature that should not be just removed - ), is that the lagginess of redstone was tackled and greatly minimized by some mods without breaking stuff that's actually useful to many. btw, while some stuff is without using QC is possible but just bulkier and more expensive (and rarely also the other way around!), it's just an example that adding something from one version to the other in a form of a separate feature might be a better approach then just forcing a that something from one version to the other, and vice versa.

[@Dzekin]

​@@SioxerNikita Well let me start with the last paragraph... honestly? That DOES at sound like a good idea as a replacement to QC at first (thou idk, maybe it would have some drawbacks). With the update to redstone I will have to kinda disagree - I wouldn't mind such an update personally, but as someone who used the fact that redstone sends block update to the blocks touching it (coordinate-wise), or the stacking of hopper/chest minecarts for easier time with automatic sorting of storages, or just fast travel of large amounts items, or QC, I have the bias of personally being against changing the backend code of redstone, unless Mojang would be able to provide alternatives (like the redstone stack idea that you said) to replace the then "now-missing" bugs that were regarded as features by many Redstoners. In terms of directionality and locationality I definitely agree with you, the way they did the update order in the experimental toggle is definitely on the right track, thou it does need some tinkering (like that case in the video of two pistons powered by the same distance that were still directional - idk, maybe in such cases make the rotation of the leaver/button be taken into consideration etc.). I personally like how closer redstone reacts faster than the more distant one while in case of the distance being the same it is semi-random. Ppl say that it should be deterministic even thou that the directionality/locationality is honestly not the better solution; in computer science technically everything is deterministic, but then Imma point out the case of powering the R and S of an RS flip flop - you get garbage that is the "random" off/on state on the exit of the flip flop - personally that's how I see the current case of having pistons powered by the same power, the same distance as similar and like it. I personally preferred the initial copper bulb, as it did not break anything, it only posed a chance to improve upon some designs. I personally saw it as an additional quirk of the block, idk maybe cause copper is conductive irl, so thus in mc it creates less delay than repeaters and comparators (stone based components) - a treat for redstoners and technical players that does not impede on the rest of the community, at least from my pov. But I do agree that redstone community was pretty vocal and aggresive about it. I can't fully blame them, as I think that it might be related the fact that one of the devs originally said that said behaviour was intended, but then the copper bulb got changed, for parity me thinks? (cause in Bedrock redstone is locked to 2gt intervals, the "even" game ticks, so they could not have it over there the way it was on Java without rewriting redstone ticks to not be locked to the even gt) - I might be wrong but back in a day, when Mojang eployees were using the reddit, the community simply had more direct contact with the devs, any problems, questions, suggestions could be discussed over there; now they do not respond there and some of the community, especially the technical and redstone part feel like their voices are not heard, thus getting more aggresive and vocal each time a change that is "negative" in their pov. Now MOjang released an _Experimental_Toggle_ and literally asked for feedback - probably because it is something to heavily impact those community parts, and maybe to not have repeat of the copper bulb situation - I totally support the way that Minecraft went about this one - they are showing that this is an important matter and that they *WANT* to do it properly. Many Redstoner that went a bit, or a lot, over the board, past the constructive criticism into a destructive one even, behave like a cornered/hurt animal - I can see where they're coming from (some of their cries got seemingly ignored in the past and they are quite protective of their redstone machinations), but I do not agree with such manner of acting. I have to also acknowledge that there are some bad actors, some parts of the redstone and technical communities that are overly competetive and aggresive, thus putting too much fuel to the disagreements. Also as someone who did use QC many times and personally sees it as a positive, I can still see your point as it definitely does in fact sometimes cause problems - QC is imo just a double edged sword atm. To mention the minecart thing - while I like that they now conserve momentum and are visualised better, personally I'm not a fan of how they snap to rails when falling, and I personally am against the nonstacking of them, but that my opinion. What I want to ask (and this is genuinly a question out of curiosity) is who is against the minecart stacking behaviour and how is it that unintuitive and annoying? As someone who never really had bigger problems with their stacking, taking it as the same behaviour that you can get with most entities in a game that is unlogical in many places, I also never really saw ppl being against that. Btw, about the contraptions etc - I would personally use "minority" once, not thrice, since I don't think the amount of those ppl is that small (personally I think the amount is probably at least 2-6% of the community). Idk thou ¯\_(ツ)_/¯, we do not have a hard data on how many ppl use redstone to such extents.

[@Dzekin]

@@SioxerNikita Btw, you talking about Redstone Stack did remind me of something that I heard before, that I even commented about in a different comment reply section - heavy pistons and/or quiet pistons: Pistons made out of deepslate, or blackstone, that are sturdier, thus have Bedrock's mechanics (but maybe are stronger and can thus push more blocks). Pistons that you combine with wool or carpet to get the way more quiet version of the piston? This one could literally be just a blockstate

Well I always hated 1 thing about QC. You can't make a sticky piston with a redstone block face upwards, because once you power it, it WON'T retract. But none of these changes fix that. And I'm not really a redstoner but I'm still kinda pissed off that you can't stack minecarts anymore.

[@rententee]

I'm no redstoner, but I have been following this saga closely. A lot of the feedback has been along the lines of "change it back" and "directional > random." People get scared that Mojang won't listen. Which... fair, but I think there's an opportunity here to explore unique solutions that could offer the best of all worlds. The way I look at this experiment and I hope Mojang does too, is as a sandbox of "what if?" to see what could and couldn't work. Could there maybe be new components that address some of the issues introduced? I've seen suggestions like using bluestone as a sacrificial lamb of sorts to receive these changes instead. Or perhaps a randomizer block, since "Mojang wants to inject randomness so badly," or even a gamerule! However, I think these ideas are unlikely to be implemented as they somewhat miss the point of the changes. A cool suggestion I saw from Technical Aspect for eliminating randomness without resorting to directionality was to have updates happen clockwise. Though, even then, mirroring builds would still cause problems. It made me think, what if, since the order already somewhat depends on the direction of the power source, it could rely on power sources even more? Alternate power sources could influence how the redstone line behaves! For example, a copper lever (or waxed, or whatever) that changes updates to happen anti-clockwise (for Technical Aspects suggestion), or a charged redstone block that causes the line to emit block updates more aggressively like before. These are obviously half-baked ideas, and I have no idea if they're possible or how acceptable they would be as a compromise to redstoners, but I would love to see people flesh out more suggestions along these lines, even if there's no way they'd be practical, then just as a thought experiment on why not

[@sychro_1122]

the problem is clockwise based on what, the build(not really feasible and definitely very laggy from all the checks that would be needed) or based on the world which would reintroduce locationality because of your quadrant(e.g. +/- would behave differently from -/+)

[@miimiiandco]

I think it would be super confusing if there was a new version of Redstone Dust, that's new feature was the very unintuitive "they don't update the block beneath them, not allowing Quasi Connectivity".

[@Styrofoam-ee]

At 0:20, good texture change; it also doesn't mean you can't revert it back if you want to or change it however you like with the added textures. At 2:22, I think the fix for that would be to simply activate the piston that the lever is facing towards. So, at 2:22, the non-activating piston should've been the priority; if the lever was facing towards the piston that was activating, that one would take priority. Overall, I think fixing the random weirdness of redstone sometimes not working is good, as long as it doesn't negatively affect the speed and reliability of redstone builds. At 4:51, MoJang should not have removed this feature, as many people, myself included, have used it for killing chambers, storage systems, super smelters, etc. My guess is they changed this either due to the bug of having Minecarts move by themselves without rails or causing lag, but the simple solution is to either have a limit on the amount of minecarts (preferably until entity cramming 25) or make it so the minecarts exist but only one of them is visible unless an entity is present. At 5:30, directional minecarts are massively important for a lot of redstone builds. The animation should still exist, but having it align directly in the middle of rails instead of aligning on the hitboxes of the rail is not good; "unnatural" is a good word, even without redstone in mind. At 5:45, MoJang's space program. At 7:30, Mojang messing with quasi-connectivity and redstone dust acting as block updates is never good news. So many redstone builds rely on redstone giving block updates; I don't really see why this was changed, other than lag reasons maybe, but that's when you apply the logic of making redstone dust block updates optimized, not removing it. Copper bulbs may be a solution, but it will also still cause tons of lag from light/block changes. Redstone, in general, should have the mindset of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it, optimize what is" (by optimize, I mean purely to remain functional but fix the lag issues they potentially cause). At 10:55, all of Mojang's excuses or people defending the changes are from those to whom none of these redstone changes apply. Instead of asking the opinion of people who don't use "complicated" redstone, ask the people who use these features daily! It's more important for people who use redstone consistently than for the player base that avoids it. Even if they want to dip their toes into redstone builds, content creators can give block-by-block tutorials explaining how to do what you want it to do. Changes like this are problematic because literal years of redstone builds that worked flawlessly have been undone and need to be fixed. Tutorials from 5-6 years ago possibly even longer that were reliable and easy to build now need new designs and explanations for new players and current redstone builders. Overall, I think fixing redstone in terms of lag reduction or making it more approachable is good, but only if the underlying functionality remains unchanged. In my opinion, what's so great about redstone is how it has barely changed since it was added. If you were willing to learn it, your redstone builds from years ago would still work; Etho Plays Minecraft is a good example of this in his survival world. I feel like Mojang tested how the community would respond by changing redstone dust to the dot/cross and realized people didn't mind it, but they didn't mind it because it didn't break everything. At most, it was a minor inconvenience with simple fixes. Mojang should never go headfirst with "We need to completely revamp and make everything NEW and FRESH." Some things in Minecraft don't need complete overhauls; they just need to be optimized and reliable. Anyways, I appreciate it if you read this far. Or TL;DR: Fun fact-I don't even play Minecraft much anymore but still took an hour out of my time to defend a small portion of Minecraft's community because I care about the direction they're taking and how important "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" is when it comes to one of my favorite games.
