It’s crazy that playing a game on a machine created solely for games is worse than a machine created for tons of reasons

There is the classic coders problem though. Console programs lust after the shear power of a PC. Mean while PC programers dream of only having to support One hardware configuration.

Eh, the Xbox has kind of always been like a PC though. It’s the DirectX box - the Xbox.

[@Thornskade]

It's not all that crazy because said machine solely created for games is unfortunately also a closed system and everything you are allowed to do with it, they have to specifically allow you first. So they lag behind in features and graphics basically always. We do have PCs that were solely created for gaming, which would be most gaming laptops, or PC handhelds like the Steam Deck. Just because a machine can be used for more things doesn't mean it can't also be the best at one thing another machine was exclusively made for

[@MintyMan_]

One of the worst things about the marketplace is the fact that, if you buy an addon, you don't actually get the addon. You get a world that has the addon, and that world is the only world that the addon is usable on. On pc (and maybe mobile, idk), you can extract the addon from the world by going into the game files, but on console, tough luck Edit:it's nice to see some actual discussion happening for once. The KZbin comment section is usually full of unnecessary arguments. Edit again: you can finally buy addons that aren't tied to a world.

Microsoft needs to listen to the Minecraft community. Console players have been begging for RTX and proper shader support, and I think that NEEDS to happen.

[@wokevirushandsanitzer5300]

They don’t care about console players because our hands are tied. We can’t not give them money if we want to play marketplace content. They’re never going to give us what was promised. All our old stuff from legacy times that is. Like custom superflats. I don’t buy marketplace content but all the naive 8 year olds who see dream plastered all over the store button or whatever do. I wish we would run a boycott on it so Microsoft realise they can’t just neglect console players who literally give them the most money. I’ve always hated Microsoft and I don’t know why Sony gave in to submission with discontinuing legacy. I even remember when bedrock came out on PlayStation for a solid year or more it was almost unplayable, fall damage bugs, game freezes, crashes and the infamous disappearing horses. If legacy was still there getting updates it would’ve been the favoured version by basically everyone. Sony could’ve taken 4J under their wing and kept legacy edition on their platform. If Microsoft decided to pull Minecraft from PlayStation consoles the uproar would’ve been fatal and they would’ve reverted their decision.

The worst part about the RTX thing is that a couple of months ago they gave Xbox Series players access to it by mistake and instead of letting people play around with it they simply removed without giving any idea of when it would be available again.

Seeing that old tutorial world brings me memories. Over the summer of 2013, I got a copy of the game for X360 (it was on a disc.) and I really liked playing it a lot. Even if I'd be behind on updates due to my X360 not having wireless Wi-Fi, so when I did want to update it I'd have to plug it directly into the router. Come 2020, when I got into playing Bedrock (Switch version), to put things simply, the game felt... soulless. The stuff that made the older version on X360 so special seemed to be gone. Do I still play the game sometimes? Yes. But it just isn't how it used to be. I was able to adjust the controls to better match the X360 controls, but still.

@@Rafelandroid2 java has the indie roots of the game, and probably quite a lot of the well known and caring devs are on the java team, and java has more sway over the community than bedrock and can demand things which i assume is one of the reasons why when they tried adding the report system for java and then the java community riots, they delayed it.

[@D44RK_Iced_Yogs]

The fact you can’t choose to use features outside of vanilla without the market place is so maddening to me. In order to do so you HAVE to have a PC or buy the game on your phone. Not to mention you have to pay for realms to keep anything that has mods or “behavior packs” that you didn’t pay for. In order to use community made packs like John Smith Legacy (a pack kept up by a massive community effort) or Foxynotail items (like one player sleep) you have to spend 7.99 and a fee of 7.99 a month to keep it on any console. They physically make you pay for a thing that costs 10$ or a fee of 7.99 a month for quote on quote UNLIMITED ACESSS. Unlike Java bedrock has so many capability problems that were formed because it was made poorly, the code could handle many things (we now have consoles as powerful as a standard PC with the PS5 and series X) however they put themselves in a box that limits the making of the game and puts the consumer into a hole of buying things or repaying a fee. You might say that’s the same thing with Java, but Java has zero limitations and you have a CHOICE to pay the servers for things rather than NEEDING to pay the company (that you’ve most likely spent 100+ paying already for the game, mashups and PVP/ MINI-GAMES themed maps to just not be able to use some in bedrock) themselves. This is why I have a burning hatred for bedrock right now, it’s entirely unfair and not friendly towards us at all. They have no right to focus on a new update when we have glaring issues that need to be addressed first. Not to mention the parities would’ve been here way sooner if we stuck to legacy due to it being written like Java- this is just so mind bending and it’s even worse that PS4 users didn’t get bedrock til 2019, 2 years after better together. It’s just so frustrating and I’ve had enough of Mojang’s excuses. It’s not the devs but Mojang as a whole that has a obvious issue of time management and priorities and it’s disgusting to think about. With that being said, I will still be playing every once in a while. It’s hard not to when it’s one of the games you have a deep knowledge about and so many creative opportunities. I just wish it was better and I’m glad more people have been coming to this conclusion over the past months.

You can lower the fee by purchasing the 2 player realm.

Not only that, but the map isn't able to be updated anymore (can't reach 1.17 I think). Market place maps from before the world height limit can't be updated. I was excited to play skyblock with moss blocks specifically, but no. I ended up recreating my skyblock map in creative on Java so I could keep play the game properly. I guess I have gone full circle, because I used to play Java Edition but switched to Bedrock Edition on the Switch to play on the go, but now I play Java on the Steam Deck.

Thank you for talking about this. I really miss Legacy Console Edition and that's still my main version of the game despite having access to a pretty strong pc that can run Java just fine.

i remember buying minecraft on my xbox 360 and i loved it, especially the tutorial world. i would always play multiplayer when one of my friends came over and it was a blast. more recently i tried playing minecraft the same way but on the series x instead. first of all, there was no tutorial, but i could get behind that seeing as no other bedrock versions had one, but for some reason, playing now is just so much more frustrating and it's just not fun anymore (i should note that i was playing with my friend on my phone and they were the one playing on the xbox, but she got so frustrated that she asked me to take over)

[@zackking4742]

I also hate that I have to play on the current update. I think this is a rare opinion but I don't honestly care for the caves and cliffs update. I used to be able to find a spot of land within a few seconds up to a couple minutes and know where I was going to start building my village. Now, it's mountains everywhere and a lot of deep abysses that I keep falling to my death in. Not a fan. However, it looks amazing, I feel like I've lost all motivation to build literally anything now because I don't feel like spending hours flattening out land. I don't like building on mountains or slopes or anything, I find it easier to find flat land and build on that. It's just a lot easier for me to visualize how I want something done somewhat. But obviously that's just me. Minecraft just doesn't hit like it used to. I used to spend hours on the game, now I just hop on their and see if anything new is added, load up a new world, hope to find inspiration for a build, get overwhelmed of all the things I don't wanna see on my game and I leave the game and play something different. I dunno, I sort of thought the 1.17 update was good, them 1.18 came and it ruined my saved game I had spent about 6 months on and I think that's what did it for me, Once I lost all my progress on my world, I have not wanted to restart because getting started for me is always the hardest part of a world to me. Once I get started, things go a little smoother for me, Now, that I lost hours of progress, I just don't want to restart. I want my old world to work properly again.

I recently got back into my long term survival world, and the flat world challenge. The Xbox Series X works well, but it could be so much better, it often drops fps or just lags out in general. The game is fun, and it’s definitely playable. My biggest problem is mob despawning, wether it’s witches on the flat world or villagers on my long term, too often i find that my cherished mobs are gone without a trace. I understand the basics of why it works differently from java, I do, but there has to be a better way for it to calculate wether a mob does or does not exist. Furthermore, as of 1.19, mobs often appear to teleport from place to place. On multiple occasions I have seen passive and hostile mobs almost rubber band across the map, my best guess is that the game is doing it so that I doesn’t have to despawn and respawn a mob, but it’s annoying, it looks really buggy, and quite frankly I see no reason why a $500 console can’t properly render some zombies and sheep.

I am going to be honest, the last version of Minecraft I truly played was the Xbox One edition, the 4J one. With all the controversial takes from Mojang-Microsoft lately, along with how sad the Bedrock Edition is on Series X (one of the reasons I loved getting Series X was looking forward to an eventual raytracing update). It’s making me realize just how much better older versions of the game are compared to the Microsoft-ized versions. Sure on the Xbox One edition there are none of the new features, no infinite worlds, but eh. It doesn’t matter much to me if I am in the mood to play the game. I truly thought Minecraft was going to be one of those games I held onto for the longest time, but Microsoft is losing me here. I unsubbed from my realms and so on, and just haven’t been playing their Microsoft-ized version of the game anymore.

[@wariothemilkman]

Fun Fact: Microsoft normally allows the companies they buy out to have alot of freedom in what they do So the likely story is that Mojang just doesn't care about you the way alot of people seemed to think they did Probably a mix of different people working there and they have confidence they can probably do anything and still succeed because of the name they've built for themselves Like Pokemon for example, where they crank of crappy games but don't care because they know the stupid fans will eat it up
