@@oeghulidk if this is large but I have 80+ mods on each world I've hosted. Only obstacle I had was that we both had to download the same mods to work.
I dont see the whole cosmetics system an issue seeing as its not really needed to play and plenty of other games/things have cosmetics that cost money, heck look at bedrock. They pretty much do the same dang thing. A premium currency that costs actual cash, for cosmetics
there's no issue with not encrypting messages. if you have a problem with your messages not being encrypted, then i guess don't trust discord, because they don't encrypt your private DMs either.
The only thing I really agree with is the forced installations, I've always hated that when the mods clearly worked fine without it before. Using digital currencies that don't neatly match the prices, and so encourage buying more (e.g a pack of 400 currency when the items are 75/235 currency each) is annoying but extremely common, hypixel themselves do it with gold and gems. It's also completely expected and fair for a commercial product to be partially closed source or it would be trivially easy for someone to just make a fork where everything's unlocked for free. I'm surprised it's even publically viewable to be honest
quick thing on encryption, most chat platforms do not encrypt your messages. discord, sms/mms, guilded, twitter and many more just store and transmit messages in plain text with minimal security. if you are messaging someone and want your messages to be secure, only send stuff through services such as signal that are branded as such. I trust essentials just as much as any mod (not alot), from what ive seen it doesnt do anything sketchy and it allows you to disable the stuff you dont like. its far from the best, but definitely not the worst.
oh wow a free mod trying to make money through cosmetics no way so evil and you do realize that if they release every bit of code they might as well give out your information right then and there, releasing server code and giving access to such information could be used to get everyone's information... and having an issue with messages not being encrypted means you wouldn't like discord either. This mod pretty much takes away the need of hosting your own server making it easier for people to play together and you wanna talk down on it for wanting to make money with cosmetics? You do know that in order for this to work they have to HOST servers that we as players use whenever the mod is active. This video is useless and just a grab for attention 💀and if you don't like the added on mods that comes with it just uninstalled them or go on curse forge it's not that difficult stop being lazy.
Heads up, for the server, it’s ran off your own pc. The only servers they’re hosting are for both cosmetics, as well as fetching your UUID for their site.
My sweet summer child, it is a mod directed at kids, ofc it is a scam to get as much money as possible. Take a look at the bedrock marketplace, thats basicly essentials times 100 . Mods mostly have dependencies, that is what modding is about, the community works together and uses the work of others to add theyre own or they build up on each other. So that is a weak argument. Here is what i would have done- Focus more on the money, show alternatives and how they are running - explain why essentials basicly uses the fact that people want the most easy way t o get something in favour to do what they want on the sides, and most of all i would not have them be shown as a villain and more like the unhealthy fastfood alternative to putting your mods together by yourself ;) But i hope you will be going on with looking in to those things, we need more content that helps people understand background motivations and stuff
Ofc your just talking about cosmetics and stuff like that. I Personaly only use Essentials to play moded minecraft with my friends without having to pay for a Server.

@@Qubick That is literally untrue; Our privacy policy explicitly disallows us from selling personal information to third parties. But you already know that, considering you deleted the comment we posted yesterday, correcting the information from your video...
I once played a modpack that came bundled with essentials mod, and I don't think I've ever nuked a modpack install quicker than that. I just don't trust essentials because it seems extremely shady, why does a *mod* even need a privacy policy? Every other mod just does it's job and keeps it's head down, a privacy policy implies there's some level of spying you're doing.
it seems like your trying to find problems with it unencryipted DMs are a problem because A. whos using essentials chat to talk to people and B. what are you sending through essentials that would need to be encryipted
A lot of people send information on what servers they’re using, or may even give out their first and last names to friends. If advertisers were to get hold of that, they could use it in nefarious ways.
Here are even more risks: Essential can modify terms, policies, or privacy rules at any time. Continuing to use the service means accepting these changes. Users are responsible for keeping their account secure. Any unauthorized activity is your responsibility, even if you didn’t do it. Coins and digital goods you buy are not real money and may be lost if the service shuts down. There is no ownership transfer; only a license to use. Your personal data (registration and usage) can be shared if required by law or for security reasons. I still think I'm going to use it, these aren't much of a problem.
well it's the most convinient way to play with friends without having to pay for a server or installing other launchers, and the server setup is like three clicks
The forced installation part is such bs. like if you install any other mod, there are many that have APIs integrated into them and you also don't have any control about that. So go say that about like every single other f ing mod out there and not only about the most popular. also if you don't want to have any other Program or library get installed on your PC of which you don't have any control of you should seriously stop installing any Application
The difference is that, for example, when installing something such as AutoTip or AutoGG, you’re installing basically a bundled modification without understanding what’s being installed on your machine. Most APIs work in such a way that all it’s doing is communicating with a server in relation to the product you are using, and it doesn’t go past that.

Great video and great points( if these actually affect you the person reading this), but it seems like for most people who wanna use it for like modded MC for like 2 weeks it wouldn't really effect them. I plan on using the mod purely because I want to use my pc to host a world for my friends and literally just that.

Like i said, Fantastic vid, and great information to be aware of, but for a causal 2 week, maybe longer, it seems like a good mod to have for a bit for fun with friends.

if I cant trust it then recommend an alternative to Essential mod because I require it to play with my friend (there is servers we can do but we can only do free servers like Aternos which are crap)

Well I have news for you, no one cares. Like it is just like the bedrock marketplace, no one gives a damn. I only downloaded it bc my friends wanted to play with me.
but if it was open source it will be easier to break into, and I prefer it not to be from him then from someone that wont be more risky for them, if it was open source and someone was hacking the servers it may take a while to catch them and by then someone else is doing it too, but if it's not open source only one person has the connection needed to do staff and I don't think a creator of a mod that gives them there money, it will be a high risk to be depended on the mod giving them a way to live, so I prefer this being the only risk then something worse
Multiple mods being bundled in alongside your mod of choice without proper notice or choice is problematic but id personally have an issue with the mod dev that packaged the mod like this not Essential directly given that it was the mod dev that chose to add it as a dependency without fully informing you of this. The currency and the unencrypted chats are a weak reasoning to avoid Essential, given at the fact you can fully omit using these features, especially when you already have multiple chat services like Discord to use (which they aren't that much better tbh), it isn't really smart to allow yourself to fully trust a chat system that's in a Minecraft mod like come on guys have some common sense, you don't even need all these effects and cosmetics, they aren't universal outside of the mod so it'll be practically useless beyond that and don't forget they aren't the only ones with shady currency pricing, and while yes, it is shady and extremely manipulative for Essential to do with the currency, at the end of the day, these in game currency decisions fall solely on the players responsibility. So while all this is something to keep in mind of, its not worth having to remove it altogether. Overall not a bad video but the message you're giving to stop using Essential isn't strong, IMO it should be "Beware of Essential and proceed with caution" type of message to give in order for players to act with caution and inform themselves further regarding this issue and the like.
Nope, hearting each comment is actually more of a personal strategy to get people to come back to the video (for watch time sake). Also, it’s nice to have no comments show in YT Studio
so this video just says some random mod downloads essentials for some reason the cosmetic system is a scam (everyone knew that if u pay for essentials ur dumb) they will some time look at your msgs, time of msg, and uuid of players (which does nothing) and its not open source which means this is clickbait the name of the vid should be dont pay in essentials
“They will some time look at your messages” isn’t a problem? Most people chat to others with those “private” systems in hope that a third party won’t intercept it.
the prices i agree abotu as paid mods are agiasst tos of MC and stuff and i half way agree with encrption part but like discords kidna the same. anyhtign else is eh
fyi, pets are on the more expensive side, 300 coins ($2.40) is the lowest price but most of those cosmetics are small things like bracelets or necklaces!
