    Other than the mob vote changes, Im not really a fan. More regular, small updates feels like it makes it harder to make the large, sweeping changes many areas of the game need, as well as adding a lot of extra work for modders to keep things up to date.

    I saw that there is a PS5 native version in Beta now. Hoping they get around to making a PSVR2 after that has hit GA.

      Out of curiosity, why do you want bedrock specifically?

      In my experience, Java is much less buggy, plays better, and has significantly better modding support with no microtransaction bs. The only compelling reason I see is cross play.

        You got the answer right there, it’s cross play. When you have child in the family who wants to play Minecraft on their iPad, and a parent who would like to join in on their Mac, you just can’t do it. And that stinks.

        It also feels like relatively low-hanging fruit from a development perspective.

          You could try running a server with geyser. It’s a plug-in that allows bedrock players to connect to Java servers.

          Understandable, ty

          To give you some insight, afaik, MacOS is the most horrible to port to because you can’t just compile for it and have to get the hardware first, pay for some sort of key second, and reacquire it every time you fail to port it. All of that is for a very insignificant bit of sales.

          Linux, on the other hand, that I can not explain.

    Idk I guess we’ll have to see what actually comes out of them.

    Personally, I can’t imagine being one of the public figures of Mojang right now, trying to balance their public image with the demands coming from above.

    And I know there isn’t really any confirmation on how much oversight Microsoft exercises over them, but I really can’t imagine it’s none at all.

    I will say though they really stumbled a few years back with the 1.19 concept art controversy, and seem to have had a hard time getting back on their feet.
