    I just feel very sad that nobody mentions about it anymore. Like the witherstorm, that witherstorm in season 1 GAVE ME CHILLS!! It was much better and menacing looking than the one in the actual game. It’d be great if they did add a little touch to the witherstorm in the actual game, and the choices really matter in this game. Even though it died out in 2019 I just want a few mini episodes of it like “Behind The Scenes” where you choose either Petra or Jack to save in season 2 (In the sea chamber). Even if I look back to it now it seems that its all fading, I remember when I was kid, I wanted to keep going with the story on my ipad but I needed a purchase to continue the game. This game will never go away from heart.

    I still attribute MCSM 2's improvements to the change in writers. Eric Stirpe's got enough writing savvy to make competent children's literature, which shines throughout the game. There are a few clever tricks pulled to make even the annoying characters worth paying attention to, whereas MCSM 1 typically resorted to established friendships to sell players on its main cast. The main exception to this rule, Lukas, is probably the most liked character in the game because one- he's largely unassuming and helpful- and two- the player actually has to earn a positive relationship with him, and is rewarded for it.
    In MCSM 2, there are several characters designed from the ground up to be unlikeable at first, but who players may still become friends with if they so choose. MCSM 1 went so far out of its way to make a point about trust (drawn from IRL experiences in a minecraft server, if I'm not mistaken) that it does so at the player's expense by largely denying them their autonomy, let alone their participation. In MCSM 2, there is a strong theme about friendship and how it can be affected in the long-term, but it actively queries the player more frequently on their feelings towards the subject and accounts for the player's responses, better qualifying the overall experience as a game than its predecessor.

    I’m watching through the game now and honestly, so far, I legitimately DON’T GET what all these people are trash talking it for. The main thing I’ve heard people criticize is “cringy dialogue”, but besides only a few parts, I always take it as the writers being “cringy” on PURPOSE because that’s the joke. In fact, the writing almost kinda reminds me of a tamer version of Phineas and Ferb. I think it has to do with the way the characters are really sarcastic and get into bickering fights about the most random things.
    And I’m an adult and an animation student who just found out the show exists about a year and a half ago, so I’m not biased by being someone who watched it as a little kid and couldn’t tell the difference between good and bad writing lol

      Bruh if you can't point out the obvious flaws with the Minecraft Story Mode games, then you are obviously blinded by nostalgia. Literally the plot of the game is your generic children's movie with a Minecraft coat of paint. None of the characters are at all interesting. Literally replace all of them with different character tropes they are representing and nothing will change. And the dialog is cringey yes, but there is just so much of it where you can't pass it off as "intentional"...

    I recently had a lot of nostalgia for the game so I got the disc version of seasons 1 and 2 (cause the digital version is now unavailable) and aside from nostalgia, I really love the game. The soundtrack for both seasons is great, I especially love how the composers tweak the same few themes into different versions for emotional moments, not to mention the combat music or the calm ones. As for the dialogue, I always felt like its cringe in season 1 because the characters are awkward and cringe themselves, even with their friends (like in episode 1 where they have their awkward handshake). It slowly becomes better, especially in season 2, as the characters gain confidence and find their courage to be heroes. The plot for the first part of season 1 is a coming of age story mixed in with action-adventure and I really love that. The second half is very fun cause the portals plot line allows for the story to explore fun concepts that would not work as well on the main world, like skyblock or a murder mystery. And while the ending for the first is always mostly the same, I see that almost as destiny. The main plot hinges on the characters getting to a point of maturity, therefore defeating the Wither Storm and becoming heroes. In the second one they are more mature so some of the issues with season 1 are not there. I really resonate with the second season and Petra's dilema, as I've struggled with similar friendship issues in the past, and nowadays. The whole story draws parallels between Jesse and his friends with Romeo, like on the clip on the cabin, and it shows kind of the different possibilities that could come from missing your friends, even to the point of anger. So yeah, I see how the plot, writing and sometimes gameplay (the xbox season 1 game is very glitchy) have their issues, but I love the story and the themes behind it. :)

      @Mega_Gamer_1000 Axel and Olivia were barely relevant to the plot after the first four episodes because according to Eric Stirpe (head writer for MCSM), Axel and Olivia weren’t as liked with this test audience as Lukas and Petra were, and the execs wanted him to axe them. He didn’t want to because he knew they still had fans, but he couldn’t do anything about it. (In case you’re wondering, Lukas wasn’t in S2 because his voice actor was becoming a father.)
      And about Olivia’s voice actor: Martha Plimpton was busy, I don’t remember with what, but something related to Hollywood I think? I reckon they should’ve maybe got a different voice actor more similar to Plimpton’s voice (no disrespect or offence to Natasha Loring ofc) but eh, I’m kinda used to it by now.

    I don’t think it’s bad but it does have its flaws. Season 1 has a pretty weak story, but it gets better later on. I think Season 2 has a much stronger story and has twists. Season 2 also has more choices that matter. Even though it isn’t perfect I liked it, and I have to appreciate that it started Minecraft’s spin-offs. I know it probably won’t happen, but I do wish a season 3 would happen to help wrap things up, season 2 left a few things open with no answers.

    I never talk about the game that much because Sometimes I feel like I’m the only one who remembers that game. Like everyone is so DEAD silent, I even struggle to find RECENT videos of it online. I wish the game never died, the way season 2 ended was perfect. I really think they could have FIT a season 3! If only mojang didn’t interfere with them. I’m actually depressed about that game. It died so quickly and unnecessarily.
    Sometimes I wonder if another company would buy the title and gain rights back from mojang. But the opportunity seems as if it’s fading, since the game isn’t that appealing now in 2020.
    The game has became so unrelevant I even hesitate to talk about it on my channel, because I feel like people are gonna make fun of me for liking a game that died out years ago, and is barely mentioned.

    I haven't played any of the games except for the first episode but I did watched TH-camrs like DanTDM playing the games up until around the middle of Season 2. I kind of lost interest of the series and even decline an option to get all the episodes for free during the shutdown of TallTale Games. I didn't forget the game entirely, I even remembered some of the music in Season 1. Then around the summer of 2020, I decided to go look for music and Minecraft Storymode came to mind. After looking up the OST of Season 1, I like the song used in it. Then later I listened to the Season 2 OST and I liked it too. It then revamped my interest to the series and I watched a certain TH-camr (may he rest) playing through the games, all of the memories of what I have seen before my disintrest came back. Then he started to play the rest of Season 2 and I was amazed by the music's usage and story. The ending did actually made me feel something, a sort of sorrow and glee. I like the games for what it is and especially I love the music used, the seasons have its own style of music and the season 2 OST sounds more exciting and that there is a more serious tone. The season 1 OST has more of a loose but charming beat (probably because of my past experience with the game), it sounded a bit quirky and (personally) a more closer attempt to repliacate Minecrafts OST at the time. Though one thing I did liked about both was their chase music; for some reason I like good chase music or fitting chase music, it is odd. The story, I can see why people dislike the S1's story for being a bit generic, predictable, and its "cash-grabiness," I and some of us here at least mind the game. I like it for being different and humorous especially if it is based off of Minecraft because I didn't have any expectations on the game for a grand story although I and many would appreciate it did. And the later episodes do act like afterstories (I don't know this term) of what are the characters up to now with more interesting ideas and scenarios. S2's story expands what S1 laid out with bigger stakes, a more powerful antagonist, lives on the line, tougher enemies, and fleshed out characters. The ideas were expanded from previous ones like the witherstorm with it's command block and apply possible modding or advanced commands. It would be interesting to interpret the different portal as a metaphor for different Minecraft servers. The music applied here is has a serious undertone compared to the more homey and upbeat tone of S1. It feels like the different OSTs show the themes and identity of the season.
    S1 OST shows an upbeat type of mood with dramatic parts being more on the serious tone, sometimes the tracks can be a bit chaotic in-game but it presents itself as a rollercoaster of fun and challenge; in my eyes a story that can be made up in a Minecraft world, makes sense that we have nostalgia for the game.
    S2 OST has a serious take with how the music is presented. The locations have more depth in their themes and dramatic moments are more serious and a bit freighting in some cases. Showing that the game is more mature and fleshed out on everything that was set up from S1. Though it still has its S1 charm, it seems to me to have a serious undertone. By around 2017, Minecraft was starting to "fall," we moved on.
    Now this comment (if anyone cared to read it) is to informally (at mid-night) express my personal thoughts of the games. I enjoy them and I hope that you all found something worth while in this video, comment, and the games. If I didn't, I am sorry. Maybe I may make a video about it or a better "essay" analyzing the good and the bad of Minecraft Story Mode S1&2 but for now this is all that I will publically state. See ya everyone and Minecrafters... I still don't know why I like good chase music- anyways byeee.

    I was so obsessed with this game as a kid when the game released. It's super nostalgic for me. I enjoy it as dumb fun basically. I don't take it as seriously as I used to when I was younger. I just laugh out loud at many scenes because the game's so corny sometimes it cracks me up. It's so awkward yet so charming. Its story is nothing amazing but it's fun to poke around the different choices, and seeing how characters act in this minecraft world. It has its ups and downs but I personally don't think it's really as bad as people think. It's a children's game that is fondly remembered by mostly teens nowadays who have grown up with it. I admit I'd love to see a comeback some day with a new season, but it's just dumb casual fun to sit and replay this game every once in a while and laugh at its cheesy-ness. I have to say visually it's super charming, and the animations, though sometimes buggy, are super fluid and smooth for minecraft characters. It's hard to take them seriously sometimes but I like being immersed in their dumb world while playing. It's a mixed bag but it can be a charming good time if you just want to chill and get nostalgic over it or just enjoy some quirky awkward minecraft inspired fun. I always loved those quick time events though haha.

    I am shocked by the amount of sheer hatred for this game and most negative reviews are illogical in my opinion, but i can understand were the rest are coming from. I think the game is fine. The entire story can be separated into two parts: the witherstrom saga and the old builders saga. The witherstorm saga is legendary but the old builders saga is just a repeat of the previous with a rather underwhelming ending. But overall, its a good game and the bad dialogue that people are complaining about so much is honestly pretty forgettable once you get into the story. It has good graphics, likeable characters and topnotch music.

    I think season 2 had less annoying characters was because they weren't defined by a single personality trait, like many in season 1 were.
    Petra is obviously the most complex
    Jack is admittedly not as interesting and never really changes(huge missed potential for him to change a lot after Vos was revealed to be the Admin, but it was hardly touched on)
    Nerm is just there, but he's not annoying.
    Radar, as annoying as he is, is likeable. He's just trying to prove himself and help others, even if he's horrible at it.
    Xara felt like an actual human being
    The villain is so much more complex and interesting than the Witherstorm
    Admittedly Stella is completely dead weight as she stays shallow the whole time(she literally turns good if you make a single choice lol), and Axel and Olivia are still bad. But it's clear that improvements were made all across the board in season 2.
    Also am I the only one who considers season 1 to be the first 4 episodes, and episodes 5-8 to be a season 1.5 of sorts? A lot of people lump them together as a way to say season 2 was bad for being shorter, but 1-4 and 5-8 are so irrelevant to each other.

      To be fair Stella at least has a little bit more charm in her personality, and she "somewhat" develops based off your choice whenether you truly trust her or not. Shes pretty funny to assist aswell (at least to me)
      Axel and Olivia in the other hand only counterpart two of the Order of the stone with their personalities deep as two sheets of paper. Staying static for an entire season and cut off for most of the second.

    9:35 So in my opinion, I like season 1 better BUT your words really changed my opinion and now I agree it is a mess. But despite this, I still like it more. It's probably my emotions coming in but I don't think it's all that bad tbh. I think Petra and Jessie's relationship was really touched on. Not as much as in season 2 ofc but I enjoy shipping male Jessie and Petra (dont ask) Minecraft Story Mode s1 helped me get through a rough time in my life. It was something I could turn on and laugh, cry (yes Reuben's death was surprising and sad to me.... still is dont judge me), and I was entertained. I was offended at first but as I watch the video I agreed. Mostly. Nostalgia and how it helped me personally might be blinding me but I think the wither storm, that one TH-camr episode, and the references to Minecraft really made it fun and gave that "I- I understood that reference". Especially with episode 8 that's my second favorite episode. Season 2 I didn't care for but I played it and I really enjoyed it. Yet still I thought it was ok. But watching this video, I think that season is nearly perfect. Like you said, characters, dialogue, and the freaking ENDING was f#cking amazing! Not to mention how relatable Petra was. When she confessed to Jessie it was lowkey the best scene. So emotional I could tell the writers were actually trying. This story also actually had a message unlike the first one. The choices felt like actual choices... but anyway thanks for this video. And thanks for reading if you see this...

    Also I do agree that s2 is much better than s1 even though it still has many flaws and writing issues it's still an actually decent game that tried to do something creative not the lazy cash grab that is s1

    Yes, definitely a bit of the nostalgia talking, but I loved the game. I bought it when it game out on my IPAD in 2015! That's right, I didn't even have a console. I was a broke 8 year old. I absolutely loved it. I played episode 1 about a million times, and made about all the choices you could. Then the 2nd episode came out, and I played that one about a million times. Then I got a ps3 and played it on that, which was a million times better. Then I replayed the entire game about a million times. Then I took a break. Then the famed episode 5 'Order Up' came out, and I played that. I loved it. Then the rest of the episodes, and I loved those too. It was just sort of missing something, and I didn't know what it was. The ending of season 1 was just unfulfilling.
    Then season 2 came out. I was so fucking exited. I couldn't wait for it to come out on ps4, so I spent birthday money to get it on my laptop, and I played it on that. I was 11 at the time. I opened the game, saw the opening logo, listened to the theme, and fell in love. The theme alone gave a newer vibe. I basically exploded when you got 3 new character options. I played the first episode and I already knew that it was going to be a better game. I absolutely loved it. My favorite episode to this day is S2E4 'Below the Bedrock' because of the weekend when I played it. It was Veteran's Day weekend 2017, and I was with my dad. He served in the Navy in the 80s. I had a 4 day weekend. I played it while watching a movie with him. We'd seen the move a million times, so I could concentrate on the game a bit more. Hands down one of the best games I've ever played. Season 1, I agree, is not as good. Lazier writing, and sort of a cash grab, but loads of nostalgia, and I loved episode 5. They clearly put more effort in Season 2 with the choices that actually change the game, and just the overall story and animation. I think that MCSM is a great game, and I hope they make a season 3.

  • @ShadowFred386

    Honestly this game was one where the episodes that were good I could play over and over again
    I could replay season 1 so much I could practically play it blindfolded. It certainly is a massive nostalgia trip to remember, and yeah season 1 ended the same a lot of the time but I could still feel the stuff happening
    Example: apparently if your a jerk to Lukas through the first 4 episodes, he kinda acts like a jerk at the end of episode 4
    Season 2, I could replace any of those episodes so much and never feel bored, but this game overall was some of my favorite childhood memories
    Even if it’s a long shot, with telltale technically back.. part of me does really hope for a season 3 of Minecraft story mode, it’s a long shot, but I can hope

    ivor having a completely different personality in the portal arc was quite jarring. Still love him though, inconsistent little rat of a man.

    I can totally agree that minecraft story mode season 2 was better than the first one. I would get insanely bored with the first season after the first 4 episodes, but I never got bored with the second season, since it was always keeping me on my toes when I fought a boss and had to try my hardest to not die, the movement mechanics were cleaner, it felt like a real adventure rather than an apocalyptic world with pain in the ass characters, and it actually almost made me cry at one point. One thing is that, I know this will never happen, but what if the endings came along just like in undertale/deltarune, where your actions (villain or hero) would lead to your consequence at the ending for either the pacifist, genocide, or neutral endings. The story ending would be prepared throughout the entire story and not just choosing ending at the end, unless it is a certain occasion where choosing endings made more sense.

    I haven't been able to get my hands on the second season yet, but I remember the first season being good but at the same time I barely remember it except for the last 3 episodes.
