#minecraft mob vote

[testedcatdraws]

Is there anyone who actually likes the glow squid?

I like the mob, but at the same time the mob shouldn't have been a mob vote option, it should've just been added to the game. It's just not unique enough to be in the mob vote, (honestly the moobloom also has this issue, it should've also been added instead of being in the mob vote.)

Though, I feel like most of the mob vote winners would be less hated if they were straight up added instead of being a mob vote option. Besides pandas and allays, I've never seen panda and allay hate. They're just GOATed like that.

I just want to rant about the Minecraft Mob Votes for about 30 seconds

Yes, I'm pulling a dead horse out its grave to beat it, just give me a minute.

So, Mojang gives these amazing idea for mobs then REFUSES TO ADD them in favor of some other controversial mobs then they have the AUDACITY to sell marketable plushies of them?!?!? IF YOU AREN'T GOING TO ADD THE MOOBLOOM THEN WHY ARE YOU SELLING TARGET PLUSHIES OF IT?!?!

And why aren't they adding them? Just add the mob vote winners first and then add the losers in a later update! They're a billion dollar company! They can afford to do this! Especially considering that mod creators do it for free!! So Bedrock players are suffering!

And yes I know about the Copper Golem.

wait I don't play Minecraft anymore why do I care?

When people say that mojang doesn’t add enough new things to the updates, what they probably mean is that the things we do get don’t actually do anything to the game as a whole.

Example: the sniffer mob is entirely useless. I mean, what the fuck does it even do? Unless you know about it, you’re never gonna spawn the damn thing.

And almost every new update is exactly like that. It’s like the new features we get are entirely separate from the game. Notice how all the “good” updates affect the game in some way? The nether update added so many new things that all made sense. You could easily stumble upon those features without having to really look for them, and thats why that update was good. Thats why the villager update was good. Thats why caves and cliffs was mostly good. Its because the features we got where actually a part of the game.

I mean, i think we would all prefer an update with one new feature that actually does something, to an update with 100 new “features” that effectively do nothing.

Predictions for the Mob-Vote!

A new golem, a real life animal everybody will love, a fantasy animal everybody will love

I hope that now mob vote's retired Minecraft can add both crabs and penguins into Minecraft in the future

I just liked all three of the mobs! I'd be happy with any winning (the armadillo won and I love them) but having all three would be so awesome! They're just so cute and lovable!

(also, don't attack Minecraft if they decide to never add them, lets be civil)

The minecraft mob vote being retired at the cost of the minecraft movie turning out to be a complete flop before even being released in theaters:

So Minecraft is retiring the mob vote

First off, not a surprise after all the fuss last year. And honestly, I'm glad we'll get to skip the discourse this time

But I'm also a bit disappointed, because the mob votes were fun! They got us invested in the new updates.

Now obviously, a lot of the "end the mob vote" crowd is celebrating. And I sort of understand it: it could be frustrating to see your favourite not be chosen.

... But I feel like some people are missing what this actually means.

People were complaining about the mob votes because they didn't like seeing 2 potential mobs be shelved. Fair! But no mob vote does not mean we suddenly get "all three" mobs, or the other year's loser mobs. I feel like at best, we'll get one "vote" mob, but won't get to chose it. And at worst, we just get one less mob in the update.

Then there's people who aren't satisfied with this solution to the mob vote problem

But there is a reason! The point of the mob vote was to make people talk about the game, get us hyped for the next update! A fun lil bit of free advertising. And it gave the community some control over what's prioritized to go in the game now. Skipping the 'vote' part, and just announcing 3 new mobs (like the "we want all three" crowd was asking for) wouldn't do any of that. It'd just be like any other part of announcing the update

Not to mention, the none-selected mobs don't get thrown away, they're just shelved for now.

So, yeah, that's my take on that. Feels like some people are either missing what this change means, or just being petty. But if this means I have to see less people calling the Minecraft devs "lazy", I'll take it
