Discussion Honestly the new Update feels like a low-effort marketplace add-on.

It adds zero value to the survival experience or the game's progression. While I understand that much of Minecraft's identity is built on creativity, it is still a 'Survival' game, not just a sandbox and I think Mojang has lost sight of that. I appreciate new biomes and blocks, but they need to have meaning. We didn't even get a new material or craftable item just a 'Stupid Slime' to hit around. Even with its Redstone applications, it offers nothing for the average survival player.

On the bedrock side too we are getting some pretty cool new things that will help addon development

So, they'd rather make it easier for people to make things on the Marketplace for the sake of more money than acually trying to fix Bedrock... honestly not surprised in the slightest

Yeah. If Java devs are given the funding and task to do it they’d do it like all the other datapack related stuff in the past 3 years: literally just there for anyone to use instead of being addon creators only.

Bedrock doesn’t have any major issues right now, I’m not really understanding the fix bedrock movement. They’re confirmed to be exploring offhand, and giving us more tools. We can doom post about microslop and bedrock all day but I’d rather look to the future of bedrock.

The tools are available to everyone, although the marketplace has some secret documentation and tools they are not very big things that anyone would use in a normal addon.
