I’ll be 100% honest. The idea of voting for mobs is great. But the main flaw with it was that the losing mobs never made it into the game. It should work like this: The winning mob gets added first, and then the 2nd mob gets added in a later update and then followed up with the 3rd one. This was basically the case with the biome vote, as although the mountains won, the swamp also got updated just in a later update. the mesa could potentially get updated in 1.22, idk.

You’d vote on the one mob that you don’t want in the game, so fewer ideas overall are left in the trash (and the bad ones they come up with every once and awhile don’t end up in the game). The ones that pass could be implemented over a couple updates when they fit, or maybe even the next updates could be designed around them.

To “fix” the mob vote, they should just make it a vote between 2 mobs instead of three. Having three mobs means the one that wins only needs a little over 34% of votes to beet the other two. Thats wild because you’re leaving more than 60 percent of the community pissed off because they voted for the other two. Having only 2 mobs to vote on solves this by making the winning mob be supported by the majority of the community. Instead of less than half.

These choices make no sense, they're regular animals and now they'll likely not get added (assuming we go by what Mojang's done so far, which is not add back any losers directly).

My issue with the mob vote is that the two losing mobs are probably not going to be developed at all. My idea which I think is genius is a mob vote revisit, which would run along side the regular mob vote and once a year, were every mob that didn't win a mob vote goes into a tournament that the community gets to vote on one of them so that the older mobs get a chance to actually be brought in and not just get scrapped. IK they MIGHT just bring in some of the mobs eventually but as it stands now, none of the mob vote losers have seen the light of day and kind of seems as possible as the red dragon coming to the game is. IK my idea isn't likely to happen but I think its neat. P.S. Justice for the Copper Golem

That’s why they’re sparing with what they want to add-in, but also why they have recently been putting in so much work into expanding what contentpacks and datapacks can do. If something isn’t in the game, you can probably add it in with mods, datapacks, etc. If one doesn’t exist for it yet, all the necessary resources are public. And even if you don’t want to make it yourself, there are ways to reach out to the rest of the community to make it happen.

Bedrock : 😐😐😐

[@remor698]

This line of reasoning would make sense, if even just the majority of vanilla survival oriented additions (so not counting the technical changes) as of late had a focus on sandboxy features. The fact that this isn't the case even holds true for Tricky Trials, where yes, we do get the revolutionary Crafter, but other than that? The Trial Chambers seem pretty much hostile to farming conversions, the new mobs coming with them are just combat challenges with one non-combat, not particularly useful gimmick each (you can't make a breeze fire without a player around and bogged don't have a transform condition so cannot be replenished for mushroom farming like drowned can for copper), the wind charges are only a neat mobility tool with a secondary function that they are too rare to be used in automated contraptions for (would have made for some neat wireless redstone otherwise), the heavy core and breeze rod themselves are just deco and weapon components, none of the new copper blocks have any new functionality (grates letting liquid through and oxidizing doors making for locked doors have been obvious suggestions, but no) and let's not forget that the copper lamps initially had a 1 tick delay which would have been huge for anyone deep enough into redstone to understand what that means, but that was undone for what continue to be baffling reasons. Yes, Minecraft is primarily a sandbox game. No, it isn't being run that way. It feels more like a happy coincidence when a feature turns out to be made with more in mind than the very specific, initial way it was meant to be experienced and used. We don't get mobs like pigs that can be ridden with saddles and transform when struck by lightning anymore. We don't get tools like fishing rods, that can be repurposed in fun, creative ways anymore. In fact, if you want to know how little Minecraft is directly targeted at what the players can do and have done with its open ended foundations, consider, during Minecraft's 15 year celebration, how much of a focus the builders, the redstoners, the speedrunners, the hardcore players, the pvpers, the storytellers and the coders got. All those parts of the community, who have made the game what it is today by constantly pushing it to its limits? They hardly got even a mention...

[@xorder6646]

I personally think, given enough time (probably decades), a lot of the loosing mobs will be added to the game, but the problem is, there will by then be more mobs from lost votes, so the main problem is that there is too many ideas to develop, mojang could spend the next two years developing all of the loosing mobs, but that would essentially mean that any new stuff would have to wait, and we would essentially have a cave update situation where it took 3 updates to add everything. So realistically, while it would be nice to add the chilliger and everything else that lost, it would be impractical.

[@PotatoPatatoVonSpudsworth]

As a game designer, I can offer a little insight into the mob vote: The mobs they present are basically one step outside the conceptualization phase. They're just ideas presented with a little concept art. That's the easy part of the design process. The hard part is actually implementing and testing the thing. The initial idea may prove impossible for a variety of reasons, or worse, you implement it and it only detracts from the gameplay experience. Now you need to figure out if it's worth experimenting with to make fun, or discarding it before you waste more time on it. The mob vote mobs are ESPECIALLY hard to design because you're committing yourself to the idea before it's been tested. That's how you end up with the Phantom. Something that upon implementation proved only irritating, but couldn't be discarded. Thus they tried hiding it behind a sleep mechanic that made it less likely to show up, but that only introduced its own huge design problems. This is why every mob since has been less impactful and less experimental; only including mechanics and ideas that are self-contained and easy to implement. When you're designing an entire update, you don't want some unknown variable that may or may not be included to mess everything else up.

[@laurenlambdin2774]

They are adding them all in eventually like the frog got added, just the 2017 mobs won't be coming in anytime soon, unless we be vocal on that and try to convince them to add them in, so yeah

[@_Shio]

The biggest issue that I see with the mob vote is that they often start to release some form of video with the mob in the game. This makes it appear as though the mob is in the game. On top of this, modders have been able to recreate and add the mob into the game in a matter of hours. The issue isn't that the mob vote makes us feel like we miss out, but rather it somewhat highlights the question on everyone's minds: "If some guy in his basement can add this to the game in a few hours, why can't Mojang add it over the course of months? What are they all doing if this is their full time job?"

[@reecegurnett1368]

The main thing is Mojang should make a comeback by bringing back a mob and structure that didn't get added but that will just cause even more pressure choosing the old mob that didn't get added or still go with the newest mob for the update

[@brandon-kg2vd]

1:20 why was the farthest from the right face blurred out?

[@Dave-cg9li]

Most people completely underestimate the work that adding a mob takes. The three options are nothing more than concepts 😄 No, Mojang couldn't add all three or let us choose which one gets implemented first - that would just create a backlog of commitments for future updates. So if people don't like the mob vote, it may be the best for Mojang to completely cancel it, and make the decision for us behind closed doors 😄 That's basic rational choice theory - Mojang aims to make decisions that minimise the costs and maximise the benefits.

Personally, I prefer when they just add the mobs they feel Iike adding, and not bothering with a mob vote. Like the Warden, or the Bee. I don't think the mob vote is necessary, but I imagine its Microsoft BS forcing Mojang's hand for money's sake.

[@pulsss]

The biggest issue I have with the mob vote, and something that the devs seemingly either fail to understand or simply dont address, is that the features the mobs provide are not equal. The mobs all provide massively different things in terms of gameplay that its not really fair to just lose out on two interesting game mechanics for one you might not care for. I dont think they should add all three, but i also dont think they should tease all 3. 3 mobs each update is a decent amount and would probably lead to feature overload, but losing out on features that you have wanted for a long time or care about feels really bad. So either the mobs need to not introduce new usefull features, or they need to reassess the entire mob-vote. Not to mention a majority of the mobs added are incredibly rare. It feels like almost everything they add to the game is rare. Like, for example, when was the last time you saw a stray or a husk? Theyve been in the game for years but there are people who dont even know they exist, because they made them incredibly uncommon. There can be rare things in games, but it feels silly to devote time to developing something, complain about how long it takes to develop and how the community doesnt understand the dev process, and then hide that feature away so that only those that are really searching for it find it. Its silly. Additionally, the mob vote is notorius for dividing the community. It happens every year, youtube, reddit, twitter, etc. Every minecraft community becomes divided 3 ways and it creates unnecessary drama. The devs obviously know the mob vote creates drama, the regularly respond to it. So why continue to make more drama every year when they could instead bring the community together. If they want community input there are much better ways to do it. Not to mention if the mob vote is really split, it can mean that up to 59% of players leave the vote unsatisfied. Its just not a good system that lets down more people than it excites.

Having a mob vote could be great, but the system for selection is flawed. Every time, two of the three gain substantial backing from a large majority of players. Near the start, everyone has already decided which mob they could live without. Why not inverse the current system, so that players vote against the mob that they think least fits the game, and the ones that are more liked or more useful can be added without creating a whole faction war every year or so.

@@Xephyra Not all AAA games suck, and it doesn't automatically follow that smaller teams = more developement. Fromsoft games are a great example because they aren't perfect, but it's hard to say they aren't a "unified vision" since even when they miss the mark there's still an identifiable vision that was just never quite fulfilled or not quite thought through. If Mojang has an idea they want to implement to the game, they absolutely have the resources to do it, it's just whether or not the corporation above them wants to make "game development" a priority... which it absolutely is not and you can even see it in this video. They focus on the engagement and not the player frustration, because the engagement for them is the only thing the company is after, even if it's at the EXPENSE of player experience.

Something to be said about the mobs added by the mob votes isn't just how barebones they are but also how much they seem distant from the game. Take the sniffer and Armadillo for example, they only have one purpose but above that there aren't many advancements relating directly to them. Advancements are something not a lot of players care yet it still is something all players know about because its part of minecraft, to make these mobs feel more at home, more challenge like advancements could be implemented.

[@sboy2044]

How many advancements do cows have related to them?

[@samuquinhaplay5708]

@@sboy2044 Cows only have advancements shared with other mobs. However my point is that if a mob will only have one purpose they might as well have some challenge advancements related to them. Cows are a source of milk, leather and beef as such are part of the core resources of Minecraft, its different from something like a glowsquid, a sniffer and an armadillo who offer one resource that can only be used for one purpose, the sniffer is a specially agregious one despite having an advancement, because Torch flowers while cool in concept do not yield dye or anything, they are just used to breed the sniffers and while that is a nice use, if they could be trade with villagers on rare cases it would feel like they have at least more than one use.

I always found the way Riot Games handled community additions far better. Instead of giving a list of nearly complete ideas and asking which one the fans wanted, they had a series of votes to figure out the details of one specific addition. They did this once with a skin in League of Legends, and once with a card in Legends of Runeterra. I think the perception would be a lot higher if the mob was slowly designed piece by piece instead of a questionnaire on what we don't want to see abandoned. What biome should the mob be in? Is it friendly or an enemy? Is it based on a real animal or something fictional? etc. etc.
