There is no steve or alex... until Nintendo calls.
This is making me wonder if there actually is going to be a Steve in the Minecraft movie, I feel like they kinda have to tho

"Disasters only happen when it's the players fault".... or when there's an exposed lava lake in a dense forest.
If you really think about it, the forest won't start burning until the player loads the chunk
that only really affects naturally generated things, really. Once a player decides to build something made of wood in that forest, it's on them for building near lava.
@@pout6038I ALWAYS do that!
or when a creeper spawns behind you and erases hours of progress...
it's called a creeper... it's literally meant to sneak up on you to ruin things.
@@curaphixwell the creeper was a mistake.
Regarding the "No named items" thing, it seems the point is to keep the ambiguity most of the game has, and also accommodate for the infinite nature of the world. All things you can find (With the exception of the dragon egg) can be found multiple times, so it wouldn't make as much sense to get a special named crossbow that just so happens to have multiple identical copies. Minecraft is also very vague about what all of the things in its world are (Every structure is named very straightforwardly after what it is, instead of any of them having specific names) and names could possibly lessen the mystery or open-endedness.
All in all, these are some pretty solid game design principles, the kind I don't see a lot of people take into account when giving suggestions or criticisms to the game. Of course I kind of wish some of them were more strict when it came to implementation (Because we totally don't have a huge array of items that have exactly one use and nothing else, right? And the game never devolves into mindless searching either...)
Yeah, I saw multiple mods with named items/mobs/structures, and in an open world it becomes bland very quickly and ends up being an even bigger inventory problem than vanilla. Vanilla doesn't always follow the principles it's supposed to follow, but a lot of things are much worse when they don't even try
They also did say that those rules are not set in stone, and they probably broke few with World Edit on Bedrock, and automated crafting (which is fine btw)
i like the "no named items" rule, because it allows *me* the opportunity to be the one to create all the legendary artifacts and stuff
These would be good principles in Mojang didn't just disregard half of them. For example, "New features should be respectful of existing ones". Ironically, it shows a minecart, which, as a mode of transportation became irrelevant with the elytra, along with horses, boats, and ender pearls. It also seems like the mace is just going to kill the sword and axe as weapons. Then the very next page says "Items should be multi-purpose" as if every item from the past 4 updates didn't have 1 or 2 features at most. Copper is one of the most useful materials in real life, but you only need 6 ingots in minecraft to make every item that uses it. Not to mention every armor trim, pottery sherd, and banner pattern that only exists to clog your inventory. Then the part where it says the F3 menu is bad, and there should be solutions in-game for these details. And I agree, these features SHOULD be in-game... but they're not. The only time a solution was even suggested was the Glare, which was instantly ruled out of the mob vote BECAUSE the F3 menu exists.
So it's in place to prevent something equivalent to getting 2 shotguns with completely different stats and desgines but identical names in a borderlands game? Weird comparison I know
"Real life animals should be friendly"
Spiders at night: Am I a joke to you?
Wow, I didn't know that there were spiders the size of a pig in real life
>insert joke about Australian spiders here
The idea of giant monster spiders is pretty common, so they don’t count. And even then they’re still technically Neutral mobs
Polar bears with cubs & silverfish
@@fonsie_games the minecraft silverfish are different enough from real silverfish.
Polar bears usually neutral, the cub thing is just an exclusive mechanic.
spiders aren't animals; they're arachnids.
25:48 "[The illagers'] skills should be more towards 'magic' rather than engineering."
Just gonna leave this here for anyone who says that the Ominous Bottle doesn't fit the Pillagers.
It doesn’t. Why would they give you an optional potion instead of casting a curse. Also breaks pillager farms
@@frag4007 They drop it when they die so think of it as their malice and evil being put in a bottle by the player.
@@frag4007 I'd like to think of it as their version of our potions. We have potions that give us swiftness, jump boost, etc.; they have a potion that summons reinforcements to attack a village (with the accidental side-effect of activating Ominous Trials, I suppose).
@@SkyHigh64 I thought of it as a potion to be casted on their enemies, just didnt get a chance to use when they were slain. Maybe mojang could make a pillager using the omnious bottle as a splash potion to making disasterious events happen while fighting them
@@frag4007same question for why evoker drop totem instead of using it. Minecraft has its own laws, if you wanna enjoy the game just accept its laws.
If youre mad because of the raid farm are destroyed, you must know that its a glitch abuse. Dont expect too much from a bug or glitch cuz once they fix it you will feel much loss. Tnt dupe will also be fixed someday cuz its a bug right? Bugs are supposed to be fixed as they wrote in 23:16
Because they changed the raid system, minecraft player will find new ways to make new gen of farm. Maybe not as op as old one but why not?
Don’t tell Mojag that the Minecraft movie has Steve in it
I found it really interesting that a lot of those classic structures were built by Jeb. I think that's really cool.
Two things i found interesting is that, illagers, according to this, started as dungeons mobs that were then added to the base game(even though as players we saw them in the base game first). The other intriguing thing is that the endermen's lore has been revealed as immortal dimension destroyers which is fascinating and I wonder how we can incorporate that when piecing together the rest of the lore
What's even weirder is that Ravagers don't appear in the Dungeons base game, only appearing a few DLCs later
That noooo sound from jeb in the background at the end screen is golden
Seeing Jeb state his inspiration REALLY makes me question how much he actually can contribute.
The amount of fantasy and stat information from his perspective is really so cool but we don’t really see much of those aspects in MC updates of recent years.
Sure we did get the Warden, Sniffer and other such things but nothing really implying this game is keeping the fantasy vibe. A lot of the newer content has been towards realism and taking inspiration from real life things rather than some more fantastical or even mythical books/literature.
Not saying it’s bad but I wish they took more creative liberties as they are INCREDIBLE at it. The Warden, Nether Update and mechanics like the Auto Crafting are insanely well thought out and I want more of that!!
Agreed. I was peeved when our last mob vote consisted of mobs that were ALL real animals lol.
Yeah i'm fine with a bit of realism but it felt like they chained themselves down to realism at some aspects, wish they could take more creative take on minecraft. Like to be honest here no one want "that" many realism in a game where's slaying dragon is the endgame
I disagree, the warden wasn't just it's own thing, it came with the deep dark and that was MASSIVE. And I wouldn't say the new trial dungeons are far from that theme either.
Autocrafting is something that belongs in the realm of mods, not base game
1.21 definitely had the most fantasy type stuff in the last couple of updates (The warden as well ig)

23:13 recovery compass chilling in the corner
yea there are features like the recovery compass, respawn anchor and even the bed, but those are acceptable exceptions as their whole purpose is to aid in dealing with death, which i think is absolutely necessary in a game where the punishment for death is significant, and it makes it possible for people to soften the punishment in most cases, while not taking away too much difficulty in doing so
They could easily add the single Rose flower back into the game, just have Rose Bushes be craftable back and forth between 9 Roses, that way they can still be planted by the player without them naturally generating. Iron Golems could drop Roses instead as well, as a secondary way to obtain them.
It wouldn't interfere with anything, it would still make sense and be realistic, and it would please basically every classic Minecraft fan.
>They could easily add the single Rose flower back into the game
That's basically a Poppy. They'd just be renaming a pre-existing block AGAIN...
Why not basically make a 1 block tall rose bush? Not just a single flower, it would be nice
@@higueraft571Poppies have a different shape though. I think it might also be a slightly lighter shade of red. Slightly more orange like the actual flower.
@@mariotheundying Having a one block high rose bush hedge outside my house would be cool. I'd also like something that fits inside a flower pot too. I wish more plants had potted variants.
wither rose is cool
"New features need to be respectful of existing ones."
Minecarts and Horses are rolling in their graves.
Horses are basically fine, they're missing a single change to make them good enough (frost walker on horse armor)
Minecarts... yeah, they're utterly useless, unless you want fully AFK transport.
@@higueraft571 but minecrart systems still allow for item transport and pickup through chest and hopper minecarts. They have little to no use for transport now, that's true, but they still have some use, at least.
@@RePorpoised Oh yeah, true kinda forgot that Hopper minecarts ARE at least still useful enough too
I've been watching a streamer play Minecraft, and he takes his horse everywhere. He has elytra, he's even tried it once but thinks it more of a "mantle piece" item. Basically just because you choose not to use them anymore doesn't mean other's do.
@@higueraft571 Minecrafts are useful for transferring mobs too.
I love how this comments section is calling out how minecraft isn't following its own rules, but also mojang clearly said early on that they reserve the right to break their rules when they feel like it. It's almost like they tunnel visioned on proving them wring just like the internet always does...
Sure, but shouldn't rules be ironclad?
If they're going to go out of their way to write an entire rule book I at least expect some consistency.
A "rule" book that is barely followed half the time is little more than a fancy asswipe.
@LloydTheZephyrian There's more to rules than obedience, my friend. This is a guideline, and just like with all art forms, rules can be broken when you have a good enough justification. Rules in creative projects only serve to reiterate what had worked, not to enforce what should be. Maybe it's because most people here are more familiar with stem or policy based "rules" but artistic rules are entirely different. With art, you can find a way to challenge those rules when there's a good reason for it, and if it doesn't work, you go back to those rules to see what went wrong. Rules in art is important and some rules are followed in the greatest masterpieces, and also rules were broken with them at the same time. Minecraft is not some bank or government where rules are king, it is a long term creative project at the end of the day, and as I had mentioned, rules to creativity serve to challenge than to enforce.

What good are guidelines if they aren't even adhered to????
"Finding things is fun, searching for them is not"
Oh my god, I have so many counter exemples for this, they never tried to find a slime chunk.
Nether Fortresses on bedrock
Slime chunks are just a straight up old bad system, I'm glad they added swamp farms, as well as oozing farms in 1.21
@@leochangesnames even swamps, sometime you can spend hours before finding one, if you are unlucky, and this is the same for any biome that you want to find for any reason.
We also have elytra in multiplayers, where the first players find one in just a few hours at most, but players that are not here first may takes dozen of hours, which is really not fun.
I don't think they intended for people to farm thousands of slime blocks to make huge world destroying machines. And also they added a fix for this in oozing.
do you think that bamboo should be included in the wandering trader sapling slot? it is a wood type! i have been playing a superflat world for the past year or so now, and cant get bamboo. they added chary blossom! i feel scammed!
Yes
If the wandering trader sold more interesting stuff it would be genuinely awesome, like stuff like armor trims, wind charges, even things like diamonds or netherite upgrades rarely. A way to balance this is that you can only but a certain amount of them.
Learning about all this stuff is pretty cool, ngl. But I do feel a bit bad for Jeb that after all his efforts to keep their design principles a secret, it's gotten out anyways.
I'm honestly surprised that he managed to keep them a secret for so long.
Nob n Jetch. 🤣 I feel a rename coming on 😅🤣
I just saw that XD that was a good blooper there
I discovered and made a video on this in late December.
It's crazy how the book's still not really known about. I hope this video popularises it more than mine did.
Ayy I saw yours!
I was just thinking about your video! I was surprised that no else was talking about it for months and when I saw this one pop up, I was like: "FINALLY!"
I saw your video😃
Ohhh yeah I've seen that video
Everyone get this to the top comment.
Guess they forgot about the "having to search" aspect while making the latest villagers changes, and needing to go to every biome just to find all the enchantment villagers.
A part of why it hasnt been fully updated into the game. They are still refining that idea, and doesnt hurt to get community feedback in the meantime
Literally what I was about to say lol.
Well it's not a complete feature right now so it will probably change or maybe if people hate it then it won't be added. However the trade rebalance let's you buy maps to find the other types of villages.
The best way to implement it is to simply give certain biomes a higher chance for certain items (with a few specialities)
that's why cartographers sell explorer maps to other villages

i mean, the minecraft crafting guide book ingame and this are both green...
when i was younger my dad wasn’t into minecraft and didn’t play much because the graphics were old looking and we were in the xbox 360 days where graphics were awesome (right?) and now he builds worlds with my little brothers who are 13 lol it’s crazy how this block game is such a huge thing! love building in my world
15:30- Many moons ago (before I found this channel/Minecraft TH-cam at all), I approached a village after dark one night, slept in an outlying bed, then proceeded on, as I was trying to get to the ocean. I forgot I was playing in HARD difficulty (I’d switched to see if I could get more mobs to spawn in my spawner, and never switched back), wasn’t even thinking about the zombie/husk spawns in a desert, and was focused on getting some emeralds from a different village. Much later, I returned to the village and looked for residents. I was confused for a long time; I believe I found one shepard, and one zombie villager hiding in a house. The biggest issue was a bunch of the doors were gone… why didn’t the houses have doors? I eventually sorted out what had happened, cured the zombie villager, put new doors on the houses, dropped my difficulty back to easy, and repopulated the village, but that moment when I realized what I’d done was… not pleasant! 😫
I like the lack of game named items, it allows you to name them yourself and create the lore of your world by yourselves, youre crafting lore as well as the world
Items are multipurpose -except for the poison potato
Giving items specific proper-nouns gives them perceived reverence, like someone already discovered it and gave it a name to make it special. The lack of this allows the players themselves to fill in that gap and make it uniquely special to them.
I actually use charcoal in early game for torches I go and explore the cave and light it up!
Because charcoal is easily farmable!
I use charcoal so I can save coal for villager trades
In any FeedTheBeast pack, charcoal is super easily renewable. I pretty much tank through Botania with Endoflames and charcoal farms.
"Alex and steve will never be found outside of base Minecraft"
Dungeons: am i a joke to you?
They aren't found as main characters with personality and major importance to the plot. Steve and alex are no different from all the other dungeons characters.
Dungeons... Smash Bros... The Minecraft Movie (apparantly)...
@@lasercraft32 Smash was the exception since they needed a player character and Steve was best for the part, in dungeons, Steve and Alex are no different than any other dungeons skin, and I imagine the Minecraft movie is separate from the games and some changes are needed to fit the media of film.(We don't even know if Steve is the main character)
Cringe af💀

Super good to know that Notch's inspiration is still held on in modern development
Truth
So does that mean it was Microsoft that banned Notch and Mojang still respected him for creating Minecraft?
@@TheHeavieKiwie If I had to guess, yes. It was probably good for publicity to ban him because many people view him negatively now. I have no idea how, the guy has apologized and he is a LOT MORE willing to listen to fans than a big corpo like Microsoft.
“Death is real… mechanics should not rely on respawns”

Jeb: "Items should be multi-purpose"
Armadillo Scute:
It's used to craft wolf armor AND repair wolf armor
And also it was just added.
Also it could make a cool decorative piece if you wanted to use it as a seashell or something
I knew about this for months. So glad so much more people will know.
At least in singleplayer (and servers with a finite number of players), the vault has a single time use. Once used, you cant even use it for decoration.
True but letting the vault able to be used multiple times can be game breaking and takes away the trail spawner purpose (trail spawner can be use multiple times after a cooldown) since people could just hop between different trial chambers collecting just the keys to get the loot
16:31 uh ok. Yet we have nautilus shells, echo shards, and now the heavy core. It would be nice if they actually followed this rule.
at least you can place heavy cores and get use out of multiple conduits. echo shards are the main offender
Its not as if it cannot be followed over time. Updates have given many different items additional uses. Every update cant solve every problem and add new content
@@mcrepresentative4232 Why not? Notch made incremental updates every week for free at the start, but we can't expect Microsoft to do the same?
@@hhff8534 fair enough
@mcrepresentative4232 yeah but echo shards and nautilus shells have been in the game for a while now... I suppose you are right but I'm not very hopeful for now.

The best Nickname for Java Minecraft.
2:22 Honestly I'm not feeling the whole "cutting off a sentence to play the beginning of a song way too loudly to then fade it out so much you can't hear it as you start a new sentence" trope. I think it generally hurts the pacing of videos, but here especially it feels out of place with how smoothly you usually transition between topics. However, I do like that you are still willing to try different editing tricks even after having a very established channel.
i think that was unintentional becuase "Why Jeb?" was suppose to appear when he cut his sentence
Very good design that they're encouraging players to build their own lore with Minecraft. The creativity isn't just what they're seeing in front of their screens, it's also what they are envisioning in their minds.
used to watch ur challenge videos as a 9 year old, just found ur channel again and seeing you still going at it makes me happy
So there’s a possibility that some of the internet’s most infamous lost media is just in a library in Sweden? Sweet.
i know i would have a few different design approaches from this book. i think they should have an update called "The End? Update" if they choose 2 expand the game even further. I also think having a huge amount of rpg elements would b a very good april fools update so u can c minecraft with text, strength progression, specialisations, etc.
this was super interesting - cheers on sweeden for putting it in the public domain indirectly - it explains so much about the game that would otherwise be open to speculation. totally agree with the take that it lets the core community give better feedback

12:38 doesnt this mean that the minecraft movie wont have Steve as a protagonist?
I mean. It originally was gonna have a teenage girl as a protagonist
Doesn’t apply to the movie.
The movie’s gonna be a pretty shameless cash grab, let’s be honest.
It won’t represent what the original game did, therefore it doesn’t need to meet the standards of this book.
@@MrMelonszhow is it a cash grab? we have been waiting for years? even Notch thought about making a Minecraft movie and such, are people just going to be all over place saying every video game movie is bad? we even have fallout which did turn pretty good and even fnaf movie and even other game movies that did turn good like the Mario movie.
@@rainbowdash3419 We got promised a release date many, many months ago for this movie only for it to not come out when it was promised.
This was due to the movie makers having absolutely no idea behind how or what they would make a Minecraft movie into.
If you have no passion or vision behind creating a movie, the only motivating factor that is left is money.
Now I will say that having Jack Black and the new developments for the MC movie does look promising.
But I still highly doubt this is going to be a passionate project, as they’re still choosing A-List celebrities to act in it, which is definitely cash-grab behaviour.
Please don’t rope me in with whatever stereotypes you’ve seen online recently of calling video-game movies bad for no reason, as I am an individual with my own specific reasoning for my beliefs.
I mainly think it will just be a cash grab because judging by their casting and past descriptions of the plot, it doesn’t seem like they value the original fan culture all that much.
@@rainbowdash3419 Also no offence or anything but the fnaf movie was horrible.
The Mario movie was ok, just a little goofy in terms of writing here and there.
But I see what you mean with Mario and fallout. Not all video game movie content has to be bad.
I sincerely hope MC can pull this off but I just doubt it will satisfy me personally.
I like the sound clips in this video, nice edit , thanks toycat
Jeb used to play on the Mindcrack server. I wonder if that's the server he talks about in which everything was found and already used, so he decided to give them another item, the beacon.

hey toycat i wonder what what a world entirely built by enderman would look like
Creative Mode is already nearly an "editor mode" (minus the ability to affect more than one block at a time). The design rules book actually reads like Mojang won't even consider playing in creative mode to actually be a game. I kind of agree with that; Minecraft in creative mode is an art program.
if you've used an editor of any kind, it is very clear that creative mode is not one. It's closer to an experimentation ground. The tools are still too limited to count as such.
An editor is when you reach the level of the WorldEdit and Axiom mods, which add a significant amount on top of creative mode to actually be practical.
But you do have a point, much of this design bible is oriented to survival mode and how designs inside and outside of minecraft will often riff of that default player experience.
You can easily affect more than one block at once with commands in creative
@@madtrips9349 Youve erroneously conflated commands/Cheats with Creative. You can play Creative without Cheats, and you can use Cheats in Survival.
@@madtrips9349 Technically those are available just by either having cheats enabled, or having operator status on a server. They're not strictly tied to creative, but I think it's also obvious to see how commands are not really part of game play.

Jeb makes the example of map, compass and clock as good examples of in-world elements to show meaningful information without the need of a HUD element... except all three of them are just very inconvenient. I find that funny. Looking into the modding world, Antique Atlas is the most interesting almost vanilla like approach to an actually interesting and useful approach for tools that aid the player to understand where they are, as it's an interactable infinite map in book form with a hand drawn style, placeable markers, and the functions are set as bookmark elements on the sides of the book to click on. A simpler and colored version of that would've worked wonderfully, and many players wouldn't feel the need to install minimap mods.
That is super weird to me...
I understand having to give a copy of a *published* work to the library, but isn't this more like a confidential document?
I cannot imagine that they were really forced to give away that book...
2:35 Dwarf Fortress is soooo good!!!!
1:25 Australia does the same as Sweden with the National Library of Australia (NLA)
“There is no Steve or Alex” I guess Jack black is out of a job?
The fact that I’ve been watching since I was a kid and don’t even play Minecraft anymore. Such a legend.
Hopefully this allows mod makers make mods better designed and seem more vanilla
I’ve always said the compass or cords should contain four digits, NESW. Of course there would be five with the Y level.
I actually like the fact that Minecraft is not quite an RPG, in that it doesn’t allow you to make statistics modifications to the player character.
When that is implemented, it can lead to severe analysis paralysis, and it encourages people to take on specific roles because the stats of the character dictate it.
If you are locked in to one specific stats direction indefinitely, you can’t change your mind later without going into a different iteration of the world you worked hard on. It doesn’t allow for flexibility if you become a different person years down the line. And if you unlock the ability to be flexible upon reaching a certain goal, the hurry to reach that goal becomes even more intense than the hurry to defeat the dragon and explore the end already has.
Besides, if you’re playing on a multiplayer server, it’s not exactly fun to be constantly delegated to a certain role because of the character stats you have. That is fine (indeed the name of the game) in a dedicated RPG, but not in an RPG/Creative Sandbox hybrid.
Personally, I've always seen Minecraft as a form of d&d where the player themselves is the dungeon master.
14:52 That's more of a bug. Creepers aren't suppose to spawn inside of the trial chambers.
Hearing the thing about the rose makes me wonder why there isn’t an alternate way to get the original one, like shearing the bush for example.
I think its more of a good thing us to know the principles of the minecraft. That way "maybe" some people stop complaining and isntead understand whats going on under the hood.
I do hope some mod makers take at least some of this into account. I've played so many mods that stopped being interesting fast because they added largely single-purpose stuff that lacked any flow with vanilla. I don't have any issue with modding in stuff that breaks some rules, like breaking more blocks at once, but if it breaks all of the rules willy nilly it just ends up being bad game design.
So nobody wants to talk about how this book just revealed that the Endermen are supervillains trying to destroy the Minecraft universe? Ok.
They took a genuinely interesting mob with a mysterious backstory with unknown intentions and made them generic “destroy the world” villains. Fantastic.
@@EmperorPenguin1217 We were never really supposed to see this book in their defense. It coincides with the "expand the mysteries" concept. It wouldn't matter how boring the explanation is in reality if we never found out.
Is no one going to talk about how Endermen are trying to destroy EVERY DIMENSION?! Like WTF?!😟😱😰
