I only own 3 allays in *one* server and that's because the server gave me one, someone who quit playing threw it down right when I landed at spawn, and someone by my house just dropped one down and abandoned it. The 3rd one being more work than it was worth to catch because it acted like an ADHD kid on drugs that didn't want to pay attention at all. You had to keep your eyes on it at all times or it would chuck its items at you and then fly away until you dropped more down

[@smarty265]

idk I have seen a couple of allays and they are the best mob of the vote since people who actually know how to use them are using them tons with things being possible that were never before possible. I think mojang wanted to give the old forgotten structures more of a use and I think the concept is cool of having to rescue a friendly mob from illigers but for the average player allays arent much of a use but you could argue redstone is the same so idk why people are complaining there are much more forgettable mobs that are so forgettable that you probably havent forgotten about them like the icebear and stray while allay was added in an update where they didnt even show it being added into the game.

[@the_secretary]

I like the mob votes. However, what I think could be done to improve this concept is if all the mobs are added, however, the one chosen by the community is implemented in the upcoming update and the other two are added, for example, 2 or 3 updates later. That way everyone wins. The mob that won the vote would be put in the game first, but the other two that also had fans would be implemented as well, just much later.

[@stormtrooper4358]

Yes that's what I've always wanted they should just stick with all the ones that have lose and have the people vote for one of the losers every year cuz it doesn't seem fair because you already know that the Minecraft developers wanted the new Bloom they've been sneaking it in a lot of things and they've been sneaking plushies of it in their videos for like 2 years now we all know they want it but they're not adding it because the people that voted for the glow squid (prob dream stans) made it so it will never get added

I think the main problem with these mob votes is that so many people will inevitably lose. For example: 27% - choice 1 22% - choice 2 51% - choice 3 In this scenario, choice 3 would win, but that mans 49% of voters didn't get what they were most excited about. That's a huge portion! In most organizations that I'm in, nearly all of our votes are unanimously approved. That's because we take the time to explore pros and cons, consider alternatives, and logically determine the best solution. By the time it comes to a vote, 90-100% of everyone already agrees. It's not a dispute, just a confirmation that we've done serious work to arrive at that decision. Like you said, Mojang knows Minecraft VERY well. They could brainstorm real needs within the game and hash out options and solutions, really engage the community in that process of problem solving. Then present their findings for a "yea" or "nay" style vote. I think this could be a lot of fun, and easily get the entire community to rally behind whatever was ultimately chosen. Finally, I hate to say this, but I think it's obvious that Mojang isn't as passionate about solving serious problems. How many years have people been asking for movable block entities? Ignored. Better inventory management? Ignored. Better pvp? Ignored (or abandoned after years of teasers). Some of the biggest minecrafters have made incredible cases for these things, and more, and have been completely ignored. I'd give up the allay, sniffer, and fox in a heartbeat if it meant we could get these other things fixed!

The issue with every single mob vote that causes the issues we see today comes down to something simple: Implementation. Phantoms have a lot of potential, but in practice all they do is force you to sleep since Mending is easy to get now. Glow Squids literally only added Glowing Text to signs, instead of even just a new aesthetic light source or being able to make Spectral Arrows. The Allay is extremely rare and most normal players won't understand them well enough to make use of them. While I absolutely agree that Mojang needs to just quit doing Votes and actually just add things to the game. The only exception I would support is "What should we focus on first?" votes, basically showing a bunch of early development ideas and the community gets to vote on what Mojang puts resources into first.

Glow squids should've been implemented with some form of colored lighting. It would've made them extremely unique and you could illuminate a base with an aquarium of them which means they'd actually have an aesthetic use beyond what they are now.

The allay is actually so useful. I stand on my tower and destroy mobs at night, sending the allay to go get skeletons arrows so I never have to make more arrows. They’re also able to collect other stuff so you don’t have to go down at night but can still get your kills loot.

[@mimicereal]

i havent thought of that! i might use that technique :)

[@wolfc9078]

The main issue with that is that that is more of an early ish game thing, and eh allay is so hard to get that by the time you have one you likely don’t need much mob loot and probably have a functioning mob farm. (I am not one of those players, but my main point is that allays are too hard to get for that to have much of a help)

[@thefloorismadeofflour]

That's actually a really cool use!

[@writers_block2903]

I've actually been thinking about this topic for a while, and I have my own little bit of input to add. The mob votes have pretty much done nothing but create conflict in the community. As someone else pointed out, that's because even if a mob with 60% votes wins, which is considered the majority, that's still 40% of people who are left unhappy with whatever won. To me, there's one main issue with the mob vote: the mobs are too distinct from each other. They all have their own abilities, models, functions, and spawn conditions. While variety sounds good on paper, it ends up being an issue because the mod you want to vote for really ends up being dependent on what you as an individual do when you play. I don't build very often, so the Sniffer had no real appeal to me other than being kinda cute. However, as someone who enjoys mining and little minigames, the Rascal really stood out to me, so I voted that. Now because that didn't win, I am mildly upset. The biggest drawback to this is that if the mob you voted for loses, you feel like you lost or missed out on something. I feel like that's the main reason people get so defensive about what they're voting for; feeling like you lost or missed out on something sucks, especially if it's something you really wanted (see: moombloom supporters 2022). In my opinion, the best way to cut back on the conflict that comes with the mob vote is to either stop it completely, or at least limit the choice the community gets. I talked to my friends about this a couple weeks ago, and we came up with this scenario: Hypothetically, 2023 mob vote, Mojang decides they want to add some sort of spider. For the vote, the community gets the choice of a wither spider, fire spider, or ender spider. That way, the game gets a spider no matter what, and the only thing the community controls is the ability and spawn locations Or, alternatively, say they hypothetically want to add a new End mob (because let's face it, the End is really neglected). Before they announce anything, they plan out the abilities, spawn conditions and functions of the mob. Literally the only thing the community votes on is what the mob looks like. Either way, the community gets an End mob with the same abilities promised.

[@SashaMasonVR]

It's not even 60% though. In the first mob vote, you had 4 different options. I don't remember the exact numbers, but even if the Phantom only had 40% for example and everything else 20%, the Phantom would win due to majority vote, but that also means that the in total 60% of the people that voted for the other options are left disappointed. Again just example numbers, I don't know the exact numbers, but because it spreads out across so many options, the "Majority" is usually less than 50% of the total votes. Even with 3 options, one option could literally have like 36% of the votes, second one 34% and third one 30%. The 36% would win because "That's what had the most votes", but it also means 64% of the people actually participating didn't get what they voted for. And then those that did may find themselves disappointed with how the mob is implemented. Just an overall awful idea.

Sniffer relating to finding ancient stuff to be revived; Rascal to help you mine; and Tuff Golem displays all your archaeological finds. EDIT: A lot of the comments didn't bother checking when I commented this. Here's my take after the stream. It is not an Archaeology update, yet it hasn't been named. However, there is an emphasis on self-expression with what the update is gonna bring. With this in mind, 2 of the mobs fit this update. Sniffer to express yourself through gardening and Tuff Golem to express yourself through displays. I don't know how the Rascal would've fit in this.

[@elijahsmall5873]

With the new update they made sure to show less and show features that were far in development. So they are kind of doing that. I don't think the Birch forest is too big of a deal because eventually every biome will have to get an update of some kind. They can't keep all of them the same forever.

I feel like there should be a lot more time for mob or biome voting, both for time for consideration, and for more information to be announced over time. There seemed to have been multiple mobs that had more to them that could’ve affected the way votes went if we were actually told them rather than just hinted at that we’d eventually find out once they were in the game. The copper golem would’ve come with copper buttons and it was somewhat hinted that the copper rod on their heads likely wasn’t just for show. The glow squid has glow ink and we have no idea what the others would’ve had, same with phantoms and phantom membrane. Having more time and information would definitely help mob and biome votes go better.

For me, I think the problem is that Mojang just does a horrible job actually describing what’s in the votes. They either don’t explain enough (or anything) about the mob for us to reliably know what they’ll do, OR their explanation of the mob is down right misleading! (Example: For the Glow Squid they showed themselves become enamored by it just by starring at it. Because of this, I thought the Glow Squid would have a mechanic similar to the Mesmers from Subnautica, where they hypnotize you to draw you in for an attack, or to just make you drown because you can’t break away from it’s gaze.) I think Mojang needs to just stop with the Mob Votes and just add all of the mobs they show off, or if they keep the vote actually go into more detail about the stuff we are voting for, instead of just making jokes for half the showcase! For the Biome votes, they should keep those, because it lets us pick what the next big update is gonna be about, but don’t tell us what new mobs will be added. Only show us stuff like new trees, structures, mechanics that come with the biome.

[@casual2694]

I think this is my issue as well. I don't mind mob votes that much, I'd rather they either add all 3 or just do one, but if they insist on mob votes, at LEAST accurately describe the mobs/features. Glow squid has nothing to do with hypnotizing, it's literally just a normal squid that drops different ink sacs. Or yeah, they just explain next to nothing about the mob, only vaguely mention something it could do. The biome votes are a lot better, but still have the issue of showing mobs, which people are clearly more excited about rather than the biome itself, which is what the vote is for.

2:04, savannah seems to have had the most features, ostrich, weird trees, termites and it looks to me as if the weird sand wouldve been a new feature, like quicksand, plus the savannah was really baren, where as the desert had very little features, and the taiga was always gonna be an annoying biome to be in, its just trees for miles, how did the savannah not win?

[@sweetwolfsteve5583]

1:24 that one dream and his massive following was behind that and I still blame and can't stand dream bc of that and they didn't even recount the votes either for that I 1000% agree with this video everything you said was a good point they need to quit letting the community vote bc like you said it's ruining the community to it's tearing it apart

[@subboytris8946]

They should have done something like the biome vote, where they make the mob that got chosen first and then do another vote with the same mobs or just implement them in the future

[@xinderx]

They plan on that. Every mob (other than the first mob vote mobs) will be added eventually

[@RaphielShiraha64]

@@xinderx "eventually"

[@ScarletSM]

@@RaphielShiraha64 Do you want them to implement all the mobs and biomes at once and just ask the community to pick what they like best? We already got the swamp update. And I doubt the next one won't be the savannah, badlands, or desert update. I'm not trying to be mean I just don't get why you said eventually?

[@RaphielShiraha64]

@@ScarletSM Because they never stated the mobs would get added eventually in a future update, it's been several years and we still didn't got for example the different type of blaze that appeared in the mob vote where phantom had appeared. The biomes don't count because they literally said in first biome voting that the voting would be for the biome that get added FIRST not "for the biome that will get added" meaning when the biome vote was made they already had in mind to put all of that biome remade stuff in the game and since mobs like foxes and frogs was included on said biome remade stuff they count toward it. But this is not the case for the mob votes, they never stated mobs like moobloom would eventually get added and the fact so far that the only mobs that did eventually got added are the mobs that are from the biomes remade/update just proof that even more.

[@ScarletSM]

@@RaphielShiraha64 Yeah. That makes sense. They never said anything about bringing the other money in. Just the other biomes. I still don't understand why you said eventually though. 😅

A fix for the mob vote that I saw was to have all 3 mobs serve a similar function in a slightly different way so that you aren’t missing out on other cool mobs.

[@Jenna_Talia]

I love the fact that the only reason why a lot of people liked the most recent mob vote is because it was so one sided (there's also the fact that it's no longer being hosted on twitter but we won't mention that.) A one sided vote is technically awful to have but in minecraft mob votes it's great cause it means less flame wars.

imagine, instead of making three crappy mobs all with a gimmick, Mojang put all that effort into making one really good new mob

[@thefloorismadeofflour]

[@manumx_gamer]

To be honest, I really like that time of the year where Mojang shows there mobs/biomes and we have to choose which is our favorite, however I think it needs some changes My first change idea is do what they did with the swamp, just add the mobs later so we now will choose which one we want to see first in the game A second change is they must never have a huge impact in the game and if it does all 3 have to share that same impact (example, all mobs are hostiles, all mobs are pacific, etc...), I think this will make us feel no pain when our favorite mob doesn't get in the game If the there are equally good, it won't pain us when our favorite doesn't get added because the other two were as good

[@beta2_]

[@saalok]

Weirdest part about mob votes is the capability of modders adding stuff not long after things are announced If a modder can create and implement all 3 mobs in the span of weeks, I am sure a multi-million corporation can too

[@JanbluTheDerg]

The reason for this is that good game design takes a while, no matter how much money you throw at it. The mobs need to fit nicely in crafting, or world gen, or pathfinding, or other systems. Their designs need to be iterated on, mechanics fleshed out, player feedback gathered, unseen issues dealt with etc. Questions have to be asked that don't normally get thought about. "What types of caves should the Rascal spawn in? What about in the deep dark? Could the rascal activate the Warden by accident?" or "How far could a Tuf Golem go with an object? What if the player needs it? How does it determine what object to pick up?" or "Where does the Sniffer egg spawn? How does it hatch? When and where does it dig up seeds and why?". These were examples, I'm sure the team have a lot of questions that need answering and a lot of weaving through the Minecraft design pillars. There are a load of other things that Mojang needs to think about too (Java and Bedrock editions, including controls schemes, bug fixing, performance changes, corporate mandates, other features). It would be nice if they could add previous mobs to the game, but there's clearly a lot that the team is thinking about for future content, so it would be in the backlog.

[@riverpubby]

the main issue with the mob vote is the fact that mojang usually decide which one they want to add ANYWAY. you said yourself about that one vote in particular - "only one mob was shown actually doing anything." I feel like what they should do instead of having a mob vote to decide which one gets added, it decides which one gets added FIRST. then they can add the mobs they want to and the community still feels like they're participating.

[@halolime117]

Honestly they should just add all of them, would expand the game even further!!

[@christopherrobin2879]

To replace the mob vote, mojang should instead get people to vote for the new mobs names (kinda like the hoglin)

[@TheLonelyCowboy]

I personally loved the biome votes. I hope they return instead of just getting another mob vote. Idk I just like the real animals more than the fantasy ones.

[@QuacklingTD]

[@skeleton819]

then just play an animal simulator thing rather than minecraft

[@maciejcocieto4361]

I think the main, hidden idea of mob votes is to make players feel closer to game, they play by making them feel like they participate in making Minecraft.

[@Random_Gamer8]

a better idea is that they should add the 3 mobs then put them in a creative flat world to let us check them out so we could have a better idea of the mob i wouldn't be surprise if people would found bugs (since they aren't actually releasing them) but i think we could pick the better mob

[@Damian-cilr2]

Problem is,people would be even more mad,since then they'd have the mobs coded,inturn making people mad that they scrapped a thing they already finished

[@bagelnine9]

(4:28) Yes, the sniffer. The community would TOTALLY love new plant... things, over the new fun experience that the rascal has to offer!

[@Listine2]

the rascal ai would be dogshit anyways. they'd probably run away like passive mobs. atleast we get more structure content to an almost useless structure new plants could work out great if done correctly. also, the tuff golem isn't so bad either. in my personal opinion the rascal is probably the worst choice.

[@Sub_To_DitterDim]

People only voted the sniffer because of the bones which don't even match up. That was also the bones from the mob vote from 2017 with the same height mouth and body. The rascal would bring tools, ores, and weapons. BUT FOR SOME GODDAMN REASON THE MOST USELESS MOB WINS!!!!! ALL THE SNIFFER IS FOR IS DECORATING

[@YLCinnasnail]

[@maksymiliank5135]

The best mob of them all has got to be the shielded blaze. It would fit the game so well unlike some of the more recent mobs from mob votes which seem like they don't serve any purpose or aren't minecrafty enough or just nobody cares about them. I just hope it will get added in the future

[@paddy404]

considering how annoying the phantom is, im sure a SHIELDED version of the blaze will only result in the same complains.
