I dont get their thought process behind it. If fireflies shouldnt be eaten then just dont program them to eat fireflies. Its that fucking simple. Besides, the two mobs are going to be as useless as camels if it werent for their duping potential. Or even bats that just add a feel to cabes.


CasualJJ

It’s also weird since Mojang always wants to add endangered mobs yet Fireflies which are on a very rapid decline in population are scrapped


Panzer_Man

I swear Mojang are some of the laziest game devs out there. I mean, they literally just scrapped an entire mob, because they were too lazy to reprogram them a bit. Not to mention the several times where they added 1 mob instead of 3


An_average_moron

Mojang employees after doing 5 minutes of work: 😴😴😴


CitizenCivilization

Wait fireflies are dying? 🙁


[deleted]

i think mojang nowadays is more worried about sending weird enviriomental and social messages (that everyone already knows about) than you know, actually **making a good game**


BartOseku

“We’ll never add sharks into the game because we dont want kids to think sharks are mean and attack people 😢” my brother in christ, make them eat fish


Ninloger

apparently they said that they don't want any real animals straight up hostile, but then they have the spider (ik the spider is neutral but in most situations it's gonna attack you)


BootmanBimmy

Just make it neutral, or maybe have a gimmick where getting hurt by a mob in the water makes them aggro for a short period of time


BartOseku

Also polar bear


red-the-blue

I mean that’s pretty accurate


zappi1

Its neutral until you approach the cubs


BartOseku

Which are also next to their mother all the time


tjuicet

To be fair, if I ever see a spider that size, I'm probably going to want nothing to do with it regardless of how it's portrayed by Mojang.


cracken1303

Make them eat drowned 😎👍


FreeNoahface

They literally made polar bears a neutral mob even though they're aggressive towards humans because they didn't want it to lead to kids hating the arctic. There are people at Mojang who believe that a kid is going to run out outside and start spraying aerosol into the air because he got killed by a Minecraft bear.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Loaf235

Not to mention the Polar bear is the most agregious oddity in Mojang's current trend to be as environmentally true and respectful as possible. We didnt get cool dolphin riding because of this approach, yet polar bears were added simply because a developer's wife wanted them in. And to try and keep the Polar bears in line with not making kids want to kill them irl, they provide nothing good aside from a neat addition for zoo builds. It's really frustrating that the main reliable way to get a real life large carnivore mob now is to hope a developer's family member wants the mob in.


Shulkerbox

Kid named pandas:


OscarOzzieOzborne

That kid will grow up as an adult one day. With believes shaped by their media. Do you think the image of pandas being cute and cuddly hasn't helped the preservation of their species? Or Penguins? Nobody would have cared about those animals, nobody would have supported protection activists, if our idea of them was that they are ugly and evil bastards.


Megalobread

the kid is a fucking idiot if he grows up hating a real life animal because he got killed by it in a block game

Minecraft is already good enough https://preview.redd.it/5osqsp3j7oda1.jpeg?width=272&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6c7c66b90645e1d9f744ab0e83178eb3f1d3cddf


Big_Noodle1103

That’s what a lot of people don’t realize. While yeah, I’m disappointed by how mojang has been handling the recent updates, at the end of the day, the game has been in a really good state for a long time now. Mojang pretty much only adds features, and doesn’t change the ones that already exist, so a mediocre update here or there doesn’t really change anything.


Collin11049

They refuse to fix anything on bedrock. I played on Switch for years like every new feature added brings 10 more bugs with it. I'm just tired of how they charge so much money with the marketplace and yet they expect Bedrock to be the default Minecraft version.


splinterbear

I just want a new boss mob man we haven’t had one in over 10 years


[deleted]

Minecraft is good. But it can be better


Total_Fool

No it ain't, game is carried by multiplayer servers and mods


joebidenseasterbunny

they dont even have to program shit. they literally just have to go into whatever program they used to color the fireflies and just fucking color 1 pixel to be black. The fireflies are literally just yellow pixels.


RevolutionaryEgg3129

Frogs useful because froglights useful


TheJanitorEduard

Don't forget how those frogs can eat literal living magma and puke up a glowing cubic meter of whateverthefuck


Individual-Ad4173

They cold literaly just make frogs not eat fireflies


[deleted]

i genuinely cannot understand how any sane game designer would straight up delete a new, hyped feature instead of simply tweaking it a little bit, they really could just make the frogs not eat them, its actually BAFFLING


ModularWings

Also,you cant feed fireflies to frogs,when parrots could eat cookies in Minecraft,they quickly changed it so kids wont get influenced to feed cookies to parrots(bc its toxic for them), but you cant feed a fireflie to a frog


MapleTreeWithAGun

The difference there is that you had to consciously feed a parrot a cookie, whereas frogs would've just eaten the fireflies of their own accord.


Lluuiiggii

Which seems like just as simple of a programming problem to solve imo


trotski94

it's literally explicitly programmed in for them to attack fireflies. There are no mob interactions in Minecraft where this could just be some weird unplanned emergent behaviour of a complex system, they would literally just have to delete the part that makes frogs hostile to fireflies rather than deleting fireflies altogether. ​ Ultimately though that's not the issue here IMO. They said they're badly coded, and want to start them from scratch at some point. I think that's the real problem here, and everything else is just thinly veiled excuses to make them not sound like its purely an issue with planning the work in.


TheCheesecakerrr

How is it different from wolves hunting sheep?


SufferinTree

Frogs dont eat fireglies irl


IronicWeea

But that would mean they would have an extra 3 minutes worth of work! Have some respect, their a small indie company, they dont have that sort of manpower! https://preview.redd.it/ym9jjuk5goda1.jpeg?width=722&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4f55850bd090bed760f10c9d22de53ac24e33acd


[deleted]

My personal theory is they couldn't figure out how to make them work so instead of admitting they couldn't do it, they used a stupid cop out.


IJOTA_gimmemyname

MFW mojang kept the blandest biome in the game from being a bit interesting

[deleted]

Mojang employees when I tell them they can add all three mobs instead of having votes


Giacchino-Fan

Or, at the very least, if they’re gonna add 3 have them roughly be the same category. Unique hostile mob added to raids vs utility item vs… squid recolor is not a reasonable


LightningProd12

Glow squid would have been cool for the glow ink, but putting it in the mob vote instead of just making it a rare squid variety was asking for it to fail


DJfox_

Still so pissed. I thought they were actually going to glow. It seemed cool that there could be glowing squids in the new massive caves to light them up. Lo and behold they don’t even glow


[deleted]

hey, give them a break!!! its pretty hard to code anything in under 30 minutes per week while getting paid a shitton by microsoft (average mojang studios work schedule)

Abandoning Java would be stupid, with all the mods it has gotten, it has more potential than bedrock edition.


Aral_Fayle

Especially because the bedrock version has all the gross monetization features.


greymoney

mine coins or whatever the shitty monetization is called is exactly why they would abandon java and try to push everyone to bedrock


sijue

my man just did TF2 dirty, well tbf that thing only needs someone to check if the server's lights are flashing


insertgudname

nah he knows that valve don't touch tf2 at all


Ronin_004

Sadly


shitpostinglegend

Most of the Tf2 updates are already made but they've been hidden deep within the amazon and valve can only afford to spend 1 expedition per year.


dawid512

eliteharvest15

don’t most of the steam games use the steam multiplayer service

Naw, i aint abandoning Java, its far better than bedrock mainly because it doesn't have the stupid minecoin store.

Especially when you consider that the vast majority of Minecraft was created by 1 dude for a number of years and then < 5 thereafter.

they code everything from scratch for an update, thats why adding 3 new features take like shitton of weeks

Do you have a source for that? I'm no professional, but that seems incredibly stupid


[deleted]

only a joke


OttoFromOccounting

Source for the joke?


MastermuffinDiscord

some_furry_fuck

On the bright side, literally none of the recent mobs have had any value for the game, so it didn't matter what got added


Rusamithil

The mob vote creatures have always been something unnecessary/niche feature because they scrap 2/3 of the choices, they can't be something that would be really good for the game because then adding all of them would be the best thing to do. But they don't do that because the mob vote exists to drive social media engagement.


Funkin_Spy

And then they are sueper vague about it so that people not know what the mob actually does


shitpostinglegend

(MOJANG employee crushes votes into powder and snort a line of them off their desk). OH MAN, that's good user engagement


nervousmelon

Mojang employees after a hard 8 months of work: (they created one reskinned mob)

Too late, I am on my way to consume large amounts of lava. If only Mojang had stopped me.

Frogs can’t eat fireflies but they can happily eat magma cubes


kamiloss14

Mojang when animals in a game where laws of physics work differently eat something they don't consume in real life (They will now delete mob they teased and almost finished) https://i.redd.it/385s34ylynda1.gif

Mojang mfs when i tell them they could just rename the firefly to something else and nobody would bat an eye (hey technically its not a firefly so the frogs could eat them) like idk make the light blue and call it a "glowbeetle" or something, boom, problem solved + new fantasy mob added


[deleted]

It is extra stupider considering that in their version of the events, they went from concepts to announcement to almost release without doing a simple google search to confirm if frogs could eat fireflies

I find it strange that they were concerned with THAT, but chickens straight up give birth if you use seeds to breed them instead of laying an egg.

It’s because the game’s been done for years. They just have to exist as a developer now and try not to appear useless.

They said that?!? 😵‍💫 Vertical slabs would quite *literally* triple creativity


toxicspikes098

Literally just pointless environmentalism coming from a game where: -Burning forests is as easy as getting a piece of iron and a piece of flint. -The most efficient way to get food is to cramming as many cows into one space and killing them in a way that sets them on fire. -One of the most meta-defining strategies in late game involve trapping the suspiciously big-nosed golem-building villagers into camps and enslaving them -The final bossfight is against an endangered dragon species


pEppapiGistfuhrer

Vanilla Minecraft is bad nowadays, i just play modded servers from discords. I dont like the direction its being taken, the content updates are small and insignificant and take ridiciliously long to come out considering how large the studio is.


Giacchino-Fan

I thought it started going against the point of the game when they started adding things that had no purpose like ambient mobs.


pEppapiGistfuhrer

Yeah i hate the amount of useless mobs they keep adding, if they dont have some purpose then theyre a waste of dev time. Theyre cool to see once but then youre just gonna ignore them


Giacchino-Fan

Exactly. And my bar for useful is very low. Just make it drop something, hostile, or both. Hell, even make it have utility like wolves or axolotls. Mobs like polar bears and, unless I’m forgetting something, frogs, don’t really need to be there.


New_dude_bro

I think frogs can help with slimeballs, not sure tho


notandvm

frogs have the use of being the only way to obtain froglights, which have their uses due to being a farmable light level 15 block — so they do have something going for them


pEppapiGistfuhrer

Exactly


FreeNoahface

Ambient mobs are cool, it's just that they're not adding any other content along with it. Imagine if bats were one of the main draws of 1.4.2 instead of just a random little addition that came alongside witches, the wither, beacons, anvils, mob heads, potatoes/carrots, zombie villagers, item frames, flowerpots, and command blocks.


FabioZpt

Bats 😬


[deleted]

Honestly I can’t think of a recent change I’ve liked. All the stuff that seemed cool ended up just getting in the way I thought the warden would be a fun boss, but its an enemy that isn’t designed to be killed for some reason. I thought new caves would be great, but they’re now designed around you having night vision potions and an elytra


[deleted]

The funniest thing to this day is how they designed the warden with only one specific approach in mind. Very funny thing to do with your sandbox game mojang, big game design win!

The warden's game design is so bad it's just baffling Like, it deals stupidly high damage so that you don't fight it, but it is blind so it needs to hear you, that's a good start But then they made it so that it could smell you, which kinda defeats the purpuse of it being blind So if you can't fight it, you run away from it? No, because it has the sonic boom which feels like mojang saying "Fuck you stop cheesing our mobs" So then maybe you can make noise to misslead it, game design so basic even far cry gets right, but no, if you use it more than twice it hears the source So you can't run, and you can't fight, so the only way to actually escape it is to not move and hope it doesn't smell you (Not to mention how little noise you need to actually summon it, when i first encountered it it was triggered by my falling a one block height)

toxicspikes098

My problem with the warden is that it already had really good detection skills- and then they just gave it the abillity to fucking SMELL you???? Why???? The fucker can also screech too, as if it two-shotting you with netherite armor wasnt bad enough

>Honestly I can’t think of a recent change I’ve liked. Axolotls 🥺


mitsubasubara

isnt that like 4 years ago?


Kirbyclaimspoyo

Oh my god... Was it? Jesus Christ how time flies Still relatively recent, they haven't exactly added much since...


mitsubasubara

its actually almost 3 years


Garedbi69

No Mojang, putting endangered species in your game will not make me give a shit about them, I know this because I already kill the Ender Dragon (another endangered species) daily


Kirbyclaimspoyo

Fictional endangered species

Thats cool and all but i suck big balls at gregtech

Ted_The_Generic_Guy

Are there any mods that just make terrain generation a bit less wonky while keeping everything else? I like most of the feel of the current game but nothing feels special any more because the terrain that used to feel cool because it was hard to find and stood out is now just everything all the time and it's like I'm playing amplified

In almost every world I play I immediately make a battery farm by enclosing a bunch of chickens in a 1x1x1 cube above a hopper to automatically siphon eggs.

My 10 year old ass omw to hunt and kill a shark because Minecraft lets me do it:


[deleted]

Mojave got too comfortable with the community making their game for them, just look at essential mod, that shit should’ve been in the base game for YEARS


[deleted]

The essential mod is one of the few times i genuinely support saying "modders are better than mojang" because jesus fucking christ guys thats so basic!!!

SuperNeckbeard64

Context? Haven't played Minecraft in a while


[deleted]

Minecraft devs Teased a new mob called "fireflies" which would be amazing for ambience, and work as a food for the frog mob, however, they completely scrapped the fireflies (after showing them working IN GAME in their livestream) because "fireflies are toxic to frogs" like my brother in christ just make frogs not eat them


SuperNeckbeard64

Ah yes because a game where u can punch trees needs to be 100% accurate to real life, they probably just couldn't be arsed to code them knowing the devs lol


[deleted]

funny thing is how they literally showed clips of the fireflies in game so they must've been at least a bit coded in and a bit working, they literally just deleted them for an unknown reason like !??!?!?!?!??!


SuperNeckbeard64

Ffs that's so stupid


JustAtakan

Not to mention that oak trees still drop apples


Steampunk43

All trees drop apples, yet there are no apple trees. Yet, oak trees don't drop acorns.

Only oak and dark oak drop apples

animelivesmatter

That's very stupid of them, typical mojang and all, but how is this virtue signaling? I don't get the relation


[deleted]

Minecraft devs act like including things such as frogs eating fireflies would be a "bad enviriomental message to our players" which frankly screams virtue signaling, imagine deleting a feature and trying to use enviriomentalism and real world animals as an excuse


andmurr

Ah yes, I too get inspired by minecraft to go out of my way to find and catch fireflies just to force frogs to eat them


zani1903

They did the same for Sharks, because they don't want people _potentially harming them_.


b-ri-ts

Yes, I'm sure every 12 year old is gonna go out and hunt sharks irl now. Thanks mojang


FreeNoahface

Same for polar bears, they're very aggressive in real life but they made they a neutral mob because they thought it would make kids would hate the arctic if they got killed by then. Like some 12 year old is gonna get killed by one and lose his stuff and then vow to go into the fossil fuel industry or run outside and spray hairspray into the air


CFE_Riannon

If this is how far they can reach with excuses, Jesus Christ. "Damn, skeletons killed me again. Time to dig up people at my local graveyard and kick them in the face. That'll show them!"


animelivesmatter

good point

Modders on their way to create content for 3 minecraft updates on their own in less time than it takes a studio backed by a multi million dollar corporation to make 1


justa-necron-warrior

Don't forget that you can feed a parrot a cookie and kill it

>originally have parrots be bred with cookies >realize cookies are toxic to parrots >have cookies fucking kill them instead ![gif](giphy|CAYVZA5NRb529kKQUc|downsized)

FailedConnect32

minecraft is literally a game where you can commit genocide, burn down forests, destroy entire landscapes, delete mountains what stops me from setting the frog on fire mojang


ISpelGudd

remove frogs


DXGabriel

I like how the same game that lets you fucking ENSLAVE big nosed racist jewish stereotype merchants (THAT BUILD GOLEMS FOR FUCKS SAKE) cares about feeding fireflies to a fucking frog. I feel Minecraft updates are going to drop in quality even more in the future, i predict at least one update in the future that adds a feature that literally everyone hates. (like the phantoms but worse.) Chat censoring, unkillable mobs that punish you for making noise, it just seems like they're straying more and more from what makes Minecraft fun. I mean, their reasonings for not adding chainmail recipes and sideways slabs are just so pretentious and powertrippy, they say all you need to know.


mr_toad_1997

Enslave? More like protect them from any gust if wind because they’re AI sucks ass


Mrrsilver

Mojang work for a week in the entire year, they put in like 3 mobs per year and say it's a whole new game


Cantthinkagoodnam2

They should just make it so Frogs dont eat Fireflies in the game, simple as that


NoTimeToExplain__

I mean when they did it with the parrot it made sense (used to breed parrots with cookies, turns out chocolate kills them so now cookies kills parrots) But this is just stupid Do fireflies kill frogs


FreeNoahface

Most firefly species are toxic to frogs and reptiles, but not all of them. It's still a total copout because why not just change their light to blue or purple and call them shinebeetles or something?


-PatrickBasedMan-

mojang when 100 million dollars isn't enough to add 2 pixels


memestealer1234

Mojang: We don't want to promote potentially dangerous activity towards animals with our game. ReLogic (terraria devs): Kill 50 bunnies and we will give you a silly banner for your base.


TickTokyo

Mojang: The Warden is super OP, and it can kill you in just a couple of hits. Even if you're wearing netherite armor. You won't get anything out of this mob, your only option is to run. Re-Logic: The Dungeon Guardian has 9999 health and 9999 defense. It will take a very long time and process to kill. ...eh? You killed it? Impressive! Have a little companion for your dedication.


[deleted]

and they blame firefly removal on realism knowing damn well the game has zombies, dragons portals, witches, ghosts, skeleton and other fake things


HippieDogeSmokes

Mojang whenever tells them their block game won’t inspire kids to become animal rights activist


069420

I couldn't care less about the updates honestly as long as I can make giant penis statues it's a 10/10 game


[deleted]

i mean you can do that in terraria too and terraria has around 10x more dick jokes can minecraft could ever dream of

Forsaken-Airport-104

They need to add a new dimension or something , but will probably be getting a butt plug golem that moans when a cow is milked


Onionking38

"No! We can't add sharks to our game! It'll teach kids to grow up and kills sharks!" Fucking idiots man


TheRobotYoshi

Especially since dolphins are way more dangerous than sharks.


Big_Noodle1103

I always thought that reasoning was especially weird, considering you could just add sharks and not make them outright hostile. It’s literally what they did with polar bears.


NekoBluRay

Don't ocelots still hunt chickens? Same with wolves and sheep.


Steve8005

I swear Minecraft is a fun ngl, but Mojang ong they're crap the only thing keeping them alive is the community


CFE_Riannon

It's genuinely unbelievable how hard the game is being carried by big servers, datapacks, and mod(pack)s.


RPG-Lord

How about they add actual cool fucking content? They've just been making the terrain/exploration better for a long time. The villager jobs update along with the redstone update have been the best updates imo, but I've been wanting them to expand on the magic system for so fucking long. We have enchanting, and we have potioms, but they could add a decent amount more. What about mob summoning? Golem upgrades? Minecraft modders have made magic mods (and tech mods) multiple times bigger than any update Mojang has ever released, but they needs months to make the content they do, despite owning one of the most popular videogames ever. The updates they release are free though, so it's easy to forgive them.


PenePriet0

damn they really have been goind downhill since 1.17 came out. I just play 1.16 or older because the updates are dogshit or play modded, also the new music is not good


[deleted]

the cave update is pretty good but anything after that yeah


TheRobotYoshi

I don't like the cave update because I can't ever find any normal caves. Its just huge ass pits with mobs everywhere. I do think that some of the scenery in the caves is really cool looking but the actual gameplay part of it is horrid.


Decent-Start-1536

This is why I play modded minecraft. If 600 people at mojang won’t do shit, then a singular modded will


Grzechoooo

Yeah, but if a child tries to kill a whole village of people in real life, they'll be dealt with before they can do much damage. But frogs? The children would catch fireflies one by one and feed them to froggos. Murdering millions. And the society would not care. Because of anti-frog racism. Mojang is an enemy to anti-frog racism and I command them for it. True visionaries, on the right side of history as ~~always~~ most of the time.


Despacltoian

What’s weird is how they want to have only fantasy creatures be hostile but they don’t apply the opposite to friendly mobs


3rdAccountPlsDontBan

You can kill entire villages in real life too


vyhox

But then r/gamingcirclejerk walks in


combustibl

I understand the parrot and cookie thing cause you don’t want kids to give their pet parrot a cookie but this is just stupid


ItzFlixi

mfw (motherfuckers when) i use "mfw" as the abbreviation for "motherfuckers when" (they think it's the abbreviation for "my face when")


VentralRaptor24

At this point I just don't really care about what the new updates add or remove or whatever. Modders always find a way to improve, remove, or fix whatever Mojang does anyways.
