I guess thats a matter of tatse.
I liked TF2 style, but i also like MC's style.

I dont think its possible properly compare the two as i wouldnt want to see TFs style in MC and vice versa, theyre completely different styles in completely different games.

But i like to see other styles than realism in games.

i know minecraft has an art-direction and an aesthetic, but i just don't 'get' it. tf2 had a different aesthetic and it worked very well. i'm just not sure i have much of a favouring of minecraft's beyond-retrograde style, personally.

I dunno~ the whole bit world thing was fun to be in for ages, but i got to a point where I was like, eh, i want something that is a bit more detailed than this, which meant i stearted to patch the client into 64x64 texture packs etc.

works well enough.

..The game does lack adventure, and an overall goal.

...wonder what the "adventure update" (1.8) will have.

I fucking love the TF2 style. It makes all the gameplay fucking hilarious to the point it's a joke, fun, and funny.

I mean really...

It's kind of a game for people who like to build models, miniature train sets and who've played with legos/construx. Adventuring in it pretty much dies when you've seen the monsters, been to hell and seen a bunch of different kinds of landscapes. Dungeon loot is pretty crappy unless you're very early into the game, so very little point there. There's hardly any draw for me to play it offline other than that redstone circuits are a bit laggy on long-distance servers.

Terraria is superior in pretty much every aspect but for its lack of 3D and the limited world size. You can place a ton of sprites all over your house to make it feel far more homey than anything you can build in Minecraft, and the biomes/plant life are more diverse.

Rather than have the old creative.incredicraft treehouse restored, I decided to start over.

Soon as I add some more foliage and maybe make the other lower trees a bit bigger, I'll be ready to restore my (fire-free) house.

Most of the basics of the game engine is in place, so it’s time to flesh this game out into something more gamey. More content, more exploration, more things to do, and interesting combat! Once this update is out, there will only some tweaks, optimizations and code cleanups left to the core game before we can call it a full release.

We’ve got a list of some 40+ things we want to add to the game, some small, some big. Some huge. We’ve finished a fair number of the items, but there’s still a significant amount of work left. While I can’t reveal the date yet for various reasons, we do have a release date for the Adventure Update in mind, and we’re hoping we’ll be able to hit it.

Jens and I are keeping the exact contents of the update secret, but we do leak some information every now and then to keep people interested and to stop us from going insane. For the most immediate spoilers, you can follow us on Twitter (@notch and @jeb_), or on Google+ (+Markus Persson and +Jens Bergensten).

Here are a few of the things we’ve revealed so far:

* NPC villages
* Randomly generated dungeons
* New biome code
* Fully working Creative Mode (and individual admins can enter Creative Mode on a Survival Mode server if they choose)
* Critical hits
* Sprinting
* More farming options

As soon as I can reveal the release date we’re aiming for, I will!

Oh, and the modding support is happening, honest.

I think it's amazing that he just doesn't buy the rights to stuff like the Better than Wolves mod.

He has incorporated lots of previous mods, I dont know how it is done though - whether he takes 'inspiration' or actually asks them for help. When he was still talking about making the modding API he had some line in there about all APIs are his property after they are uploaded or something (I cant remember the specifics).

At the rate stuff's implemented, Minecraft vanilla should be up to some mods' levels of tweaks in...oh, 8 years.

I've yet to scratch the surface of this game... Jeez, that occured randomly in the world?

Im having trouble finding minerals.... Managed to dig to the bedrock and then colapse my tunnel somehow. Had to dig up and ended up god knows where. Fell on my sword to spawn back at my base...
