Transcript

Hey everyone, welcome to the weathering effect. This is episode 10. Today's date is August 19th. I am Duds as Karl has reminded me to say this week as if you guys didn't already know who was talking in your ear. And I'm bunk audible or bank for sure and we're going to talk about some Minecraft today or well maybe not so much but you'll hear that. So what have you been working on this week that's potion brewing lots and lots of potion for me.

Sometimes I did very well at it and other times I did very bad at it. Basically I built a custom Brewing machine that didn't work. I was just going to say you're talking about potion brewing and Minecraft. So just in real life in Minecraft, definitely Minecraft playthrough, I if you guys haven't discovered by the title of this episode, we are not going to be on Minecraft for very long today.

But yes, I spent a week doing potion brewing and rage quitting and and then a Windows update happen and then I rage some more and in my controller program stopped. Working because yes, I'm one of the few people who use a controller for the Java Edition and so I rage some more and then basically spent my entire weekend getting settings back to the way they were and getting everything to work again bananas. You did get it fixed, right? Yeah. No, everything's back to the way

it was. I'm back to where I was last Monday. So at least that's already lost a lot of work, I guess to potion brewing and updates. Yay updates. Yeah, but like you had come on stream and help me fix my potion brewing machine, but there were still yeah, they were still tweaks I had to do to even the stuff you had done just to get the darn thing to work in the small area. Didn't it? Get reset anyway, go see sort of moved the server. No. No, they went ahead and

downloaded a newer version. So we were okay. Oh cool. Yeah, so it wasn't that bad. But how was your week been? It's been a pretty uneventful I guess but the one one cool thing. I got to order the 3D printer which whichever really excited for and it's going to be here like tomorrow which for me is within like 12 hours. So tedious cool title for that. Sorry, you're giddy as a schoolgirl. Yeah, pretty much like a kid in a what is it candy store candy corn candy store. That's it.

Yeah. Yeah. I'm ready. I'd for it. You're going to have Banky faces 3D printed and paste it everywhere. Aren't you? I think I'll probably do print to Banky and I still because I used to do arm or a lot like long time ago, but I still have like bein so I might try and bend it to look like like my character think they could be funny. That'll be awesome. You should get on Fiverr because you do a lot of like picture stuff for my stream and stuff

you need. Yeah on Fiverr with that and the fact that you could not have a 3D printer, that could be really cool. Cool. Yeah, I'm definitely gonna try and get something out of it. I guess. I'm not sure how that's gonna

work. But yeah, I'll definitely going to try because it will be a cool cool job to have I guess if it's even tell any trouble I wish I could do stuff like that because that's where I put my time in. I mean they came with a really cool new update and blur it is it is more accessible to new people. I'd say yeah, I've been meaning to learn to be significant down in force myself to do it Yeah, I enjoy it a lot. It's like Minecraft but limited options. I guess you can just make

whatever you want. Awesome. I'm gonna do a quick weather update because I don't know if banks been hearing during our previous podcast recording stuff, but it's thundering pretty bad behind me. So if all of a sudden the podcasts just stops it's because I lost power and I promise we'll finish the recording well for you, it'll be be seconds, but for me and make it will get that at some point. But I think we're on to the news. I don't know if banks still

muted. I wasn't muted but something else breaking up for me. I'm not sure. Yes. He technical difficulties already. But yes something was happening. Yeah Minecraft news. Go ahead. You've got stuff on the combat update. Well, it's they did a little bit thing. They had that little combat update. What was it in 14 tree? I think 1.14 tree and they they did another update on that some Minor tweaks like they did increase the damage of a trident I think and tweak some other

stuff. I guess one thing that might be cool to note is that they disabled that if you hold down the take that it keeps attacking except for when you use a controller. So you might actually get your controller support in that in that update. Maybe I mean as of right now the game itself just thinks I'm using I keep works. I've just remapped controller to act like a keyboard so Maybe yeah, but who knows but I mean it was a really minor update but there is one.

So if you want to try it out, it's downloadable. I'm not sure how but they have guides for that. Yeah. Last time I posted on Reddit. I think I think you can find it on their own website or maybe on the Minecraft Wiki. Yeah. It's not really hard to fight. Okay. Well the second thing I'm news is that while the super duper resource pack was canceled. Ray tracing is now here.

If you have yourself an RTX card or a card that supports DirectX R you can do ray tracing on. Rock or will be able to do ray tracing on Bedrock, which is just basically fancy shaders for the Priscilla's. I think if you have a RTX graphics card already, you can still do the ray tracing of Minecraft today. Like I don't think you need Minecraft code to do it. Well, you have shaver said kind of look like they do that anyway, like for a long time

already. Yeah, so for me, it's not a big deal because I can't play on shaders. Anyways, we play on a server that's over a year old. So it's packed full and keeping my frames above a hundred is already stressed enough on my graphics card. I don't know I like the simple Luke's of Minecraft. I do too like to me shaders are great for taking pictures. But at the same time I found that people who take a lot of pictures with shaders are just hiding their inability to be creative. Makes sense.

It is a it is a good way to hide sort of that kind of if you have somebody who's really good at building and really creative and they put shaders on top of that. It's like holy cow. That's a work of art and then to me, that's the way it should be used. But I see too many of like my friends sending me pictures saying Hey, look what I built in Minecraft and it's it's a spruce box with the Shaker turned on. Yeah, and then the sudden lights nicely Shining. All that which makes it look cool.

But yeah, it's just a spruce pokes. Yeah, don't get me wrong. I'm super excited. I have friends playing Minecraft again, and I'm going to teach them how to build something other than a spruce box. But it shouldn't be hard to do know they're they're definitely in the new realm and I love them for it because they're experiencing the new Minecraft all over again. And I remember that feeling when I first started playing it and I built a three-story house out of dirt.

Nice, so there's fruits box brings back great memories. You gotta start somewhere. Yeah. The last final Minecraft news Corrales is back on hermitcraft. That's just a little thing that got me excited. I'm telling you. I'm waiting B-Dubs is going to come back. I have a feeling All right. I did it though. He was called either. Yeah. I know you're out of touch with the YouTube realm. I'm out of touch with the Hammers Croft realm little bit Yeah.

Well, no, I've always been quite selecting and watching those guys. Yeah, but what do you say for comments and stuff? Oh, yeah, we got a discard. So join us more people more to talk about giving us more hints to to talk about. Yeah, if you guys don't join the Discord, we're going to keep breaking up in the podcast. We're gonna keep bringing it up. Anyway, I think yeah, that's probably true. But don't let them know that this guy. I mean the more people the merrier, right? Yeah.

That's true. We just want people to join of this car thing about this way Omni made a comment in game. To me that I thought we'd spend five minutes talking about and we ended up turning entire last podcast episode 9 just from his comment. Yeah, that was just well well said it was one sentence, but it would like to questions. Yeah. Okay. Next one could be you if you join this car. Yeah, let's get on to the topic. Yes.

Get on the main topic in the say that yeah, so as you can tell by the name or the title of this podcast, we're going for high tail. There's a good lull in Minecraft news and related articles and stuff to the point where we thought it might be a good time to talk about height. Oh, it's been on the ideas or to-do list for a while now, but as we are a new Minecraft podcast we didn't Episode 1 2 or 32 be about high tail. No, definitely not.

No, it's like episode. Um, so I think we're yeah, we made a double filter little bit outside. Yeah. Oh that's actually true didn't think about that? Yeah, which is crazy because this is week 10. We've been doing this. Yeah, ten straight weeks. Holy cow. It's like two and a half months or something. Yeah two months. Well, not too pretty good tutor own horn anymore, but we're up to like 800 and something listens 55. Yeah average listeners.

Yeah, it's insane. It's it's really surprises me. How many people listen to it? Yeah, so tight it that's really cool. Thanks guys. Obviously if you're listening to this, you're one of the listeners, so thank you very much. Keep supporting us any way you can join the Discord. Nice. Yeah, okay. Okay, that's where hightail so we're not going to go in depth today on hightail. We chose going to stick with the trailer video. Yeah, we chose to stick with the

trailer video. We've no we know there's ton more. What do you want to say information out there? Yeah, that's a lot of news and developments and stuff. Yeah, and some of that stuff May contradict what we say now. So don't get mad just understand that. We only are basing our information off the trailer banks done a little bit more digging so he can kind of get a little bit more descriptive but we didn't want to go deep we kind of have a little bit more.

Yeah, I was curious for something so I looked a little bit into that. But yeah, yeah, this is very much our first thoughts and all that good stuff. So let's It with what I tell is in the fact that I tell comes from the Hypixel Studios, which you guys have probably heard

Hypixel from Minecraft servers. They run an extensive Minecraft multiplayer server, which gives you different kinds of Adventures and many games and stuff like that and they ended up creating their own gaming studio to create high tail and it's very much a voxel game. So it looks a lot like Minecraft. But that's kind of where the comparisons end. I wouldn't say yeah, they do. Yeah, it does not play like Minecraft at least from the

trailer. Hmm But it's similar in the art design and to me that's about it. I think there's a few gameplay sort of stinks that will be really similar. But yeah, it's a completely different game. So for this first segment, we want to start off with things we liked so I'll start with my first thing that was kind of obvious and just basically slaps you in the face of the beginning the trailer the mobs. Yeah. Hi tell has an awesome arranged of mobs whether they're ambient mobs.

I saw Al's I saw Birds you have rabbits. You have foxes just immense amount of different. And of course ambient mobs and then you have the Sinister Mob swear. I saw hug Goblin. I don't even know what to the Abominable Snowman and one point giant wasps were in there. Skeleton guys, I think inspired us. Yeah, Jeff you might those yeah, I want to say I saw a zombie or two in there, which let's face it. That's one of my biggest gripes on Minecraft is Just Too Many Zombies.

I saw one zombie and I tail so I saw a lot of orc style think so trolls. Yeah, there were trolls and Orcs and stuff like that. Yeah, but nothing too crazy. What about you? What was the first that you saw that you really liked? Well, obviously they have the best obvious stuff. Like I enjoyed the training generation the train with beautiful sort of Minecraft, but kind of better. I guess it definitely reminded something when we were doing our custom terrain generation for

comment. Yeah. Way more organic than Minecraft was for sure. But but the first thing that I saw that I that got me like sort of excited was immediately in the first shot. You saw three different characters and one definitely had a staff and look like a mage to me and then you had to sort of night, but they had a similar look to them. So I'm wondering if that sort of hints towards maybe having something like classes. They're just definitely looks

like there's different. Ben's that kind of stuff for me being a jerk, which yeah. Yeah see to me though classes. I wouldn't be a fan of if it forces you to look and play a certain way. I'm good with gating abilities and everything, but I'm so used to like Battlefield my favorite FPS if you play as a certain class well now you're only limited to these kinds of weapons and these kinds of tactics. Yeah, and open Sandbox game. I don't want that. I love the free ability to be

whoever I want and play. However, I want I agree. I hope they don't like I'm forced to close but by having to select skills or something. Yeah, but you know, you can sort of create glasses by just having a different style of fighting for example, because of your weapon choices. Yeah, and that's very true. You know, if you switch that stuff you would I don't it would Really be a class but kind of yeah, I get what you're saying. Yeah.

I hope something like that would definitely be but I'm with you I want I want to have the option to just do whatever I like. Yeah, and that leads in perfectly with the second thing. I really liked the weapons the armor and the fact that there is Magic basically combat in general when looking at this that's been one of my biggest pushes for the last couple podcast other than Red Dragons. There's my 1 / podcast is that I want custom weapons custom armor.

I want kind of magic style and from the trailer they do that. I barely saw any sword that looked identical to another sword Shields all look different same with the armor itself. I'm seeing Blue Magic Fireball as go whizzing through the sky to defeat a goblin or whatever. I think it's all metrics or at some point as well. Yeah. I think that's all fire sword or something like yeah. Yeah, so And to me that was really really cool.

There's a scene where a night is fighting an orc and you see him do a jump attack and he jumps and Strikes downward lands side steps in the strikes again, and the combat looks so natural and it's not like Minecraft where you're just kind of like spamming the same direction over and over again. I shouldn't expand because you can't spam anymore, but you get what I'm saying. You're just repeatedly doing the

same motion. And yeah, this guy had a sword and he brought it over his shoulders and attack and then he did a sideswipe. It was very cool to see natural fighting combat. I also know that part of the video looked like it was actual gameplay and not like a video thing for sure. I actually have a little bit of background information on this. Uh-huh.

I heard that. Well, obviously there was a lot of different mobs and apparently they have somewhat of Fighting style so you definitely have to learn how a mob fights and then I just on that so that's sort of what you say. Like, you know, it's not just working it. There's a little bit more to it. Yeah, I mean Minecraft has that a tiny bit with the fact that you don't fight a skeleton the

same way you do a creeper. Yeah, and you don't fight a creeper the same way you do a zombie, but it doesn't matter unless you're using a bow The Sword and axe strike them off the same way, and it's Very repetitive boring but things breaking up again. Oh, no, that's not good. No, it's being it's being a little bit weird. Do you want to switch to a secure server? We can do that on the recording real quick. Yeah, we could try that. All right. I will see you in the podcast server.

Sure. There. Yeah. Alright, hopefully that works. Yeah, see if this is any better. It could be me because like I said, it's storming behind me right now. I don't know if it's getting picked up on the podcast. I don't know if I find out it's your call will find out when missions today Yeah, Carl, let us know Dad's. It sounds like you're in a fish tank. What's going on? Okay, so we're okay. I'm not sure you were talking about the combat.

Oh, I don't know if you had more to add on that or yeah, or a little bit done also to go with her. I watched a guy physically craft a sword and the trailer and I don't know if that's video or in game, but he had a hammer and he was beating on his sword. Oh, yeah, and I thought that was awesome. That could be interesting. It's that was a part which looked like it was sort of a It I guess if it was made a movie and animation. Yeah, but it would be cool if like the crafting at least would

be more physical. I don't know. Yeah. Yeah, I really would like to meet my friend. If you can keep the animation to like under 10 seconds then to me the crafting of something like that isn't a bad thing. I say this but if you have to craft stairs the same way you craft. Stuff in Minecraft then if I need I don't know 300 stairs.

I don't want to have to wait 10 seconds for every 30 or so stairs to for an animation to go through I guess if it's something like a weapon which you probably won't have to craft that much then it will be okay. Yeah, you know building block. She don't want to wait forever like there's limits exactly. Yeah, and I'm going to leave this right into your note because you have a ton. Of different I don't want a weapon like armor and stuff like that.

But you have a lot of different cool quality of life items. Yeah, that's the gimmick items. Yeah. I saw a bunch of things which I liked they weren't really weapons, but they were well, I'm not even sure if you can use them all but I'll just start talking about it like right at

the start. I saw a guitar or a lute or whatever you want to call it. Does that mean we're gonna have something like What is it instruments, that could be cool could be interesting would be very I've seen that in games. It can work out awesome. It could work out really annoying as well. Yeah, nonetheless. It's a nice ambient kind of thing. What did I just say? I would want every time decoy enters our room. His guy has to be playing some

kind of musical history. Yeah, you would just have to carry you like an instrument all the time. He would so hate me. All right. Yeah. Another thing I saw was well obviously someone was running with a torch but I thought it was nice to see because I like the dirtiest on Minecraft and it seemed to light up like a little area around it but the same guy was wearing a backpack. Yes and the guy running next to it was wearing it quiver and those things were kind of cool.

Like I'd like having the idea of having a backpack like extending your inventory. Maybe maybe something similar to shoka boxes, but But obviously different was on the cover of as well. That's that's just a cold Luke. What's up there working? This brings me into Minecraft update. I'm kind of hoping for 115. So I've talked about it before where I want a light ra to be connected to chest plate armor. Yeah.

Well what if you could add other things to the chest plate armor such as a backpack or a quiver so now it's an open slot for holding. Rose you don't have to have arrows in your inventory anymore granted most people used Infiniti and they only carry one Arrow but it still takes up a single slide in your image will be nice for the crossbow Dough because that doesn't have an affinity option.

Right? So yeah, I'd love the idea of backpacks and quivers and I am upset that they're not in mind or two more things to the Vulcan game. That was It was kind of obvious. It was quite quite well visible in the video. It could be used as a staff to fight as well. I guess. Yeah. And I saw minor hat and and different hats anyway, but the minor had stood out that would be cool. If you have had that could shine

light. Yeah, you wouldn't have told us a lot of options and a lot of things you could do with with that. Yeah. Oh did I lose you? I'd something lost again. Yeah, something is not right on my ends. I think it is, but I don't know for sure what I can do about it. We'll keep trudging. Hopefully you guys can. Got it. No trench do it with us. Yeah. Another thing. It's not too bad. Yeah. Okay, I'm saying a lot again. I'm gonna have to like get one

of those shock collars. I swear he's getting horrible. I'm so sorry, but my next big thing. I saw that I didn't hit me at first and then when I rewatched the trailer, I went. Oh my God, they have elbows and knees. I miss that. Yeah, they have elbows knees their knees bend their elbows bent. They can sit down wherever they want. I granted. I don't know if this is just animation for video purposes. Like we've talked about there's that Thunder I heard this one.

Yeah, but I mean in the first couple seconds you see somebody sitting next to a fire I think about 30 seconds into it. You see some guy sitting on a porch It's very cool that you can sit down. I think that's something people have been wanting in Minecraft for a little while. I know I have but yeah, I did see a lot of furniture. So I did have the idea. I like they're probably kind of make you be able to sit on chairs and stuff.

Yeah, but I didn't look at it the same perspective as you did like a guy sitting on the porch. Yeah, maybe you could sit just in nothing or just on the ground that will be really cool. I like that. Yeah. I mean, I also had furniture with like chairs and shelves. I want bookshelves that actually work. Yeah, I mean the decoration looked more interactive and it seemed like they actually have furniture now. I know you can do that with data packs of Minecraft right now.

Hmm But yeah, that's I want a bookshelf. I can put books on. I mean to me it looks like that's going to be something we're going to be able to craft in the game. Mmm. What about you? What's what's your next thing? I saw a whole air balloon? Yes, it flashed by it was like not even a half a second. It was literally a flat. Yeah, every time I watch a trailer, I've missed the hot air

balloon. Yeah, and I saw it in the background and I mean, that would be awesome having a hot air balloon maybe different kinds of eagles Red Dragons. Red Dragons and watch out. I'm going to point out the last team to you again. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know that looks kind of cool. I hope they're going to do something with that and that that wasn't just a cinematic kind of thing. But an actual in game thing. Yeah.

Well you had mentioned on your notes writing on RAM I saw that too and yeah, I didn't write it down because I saw you had written it down and it looks like there's a lot of cool animals will be able to ride on Yeah, yeah. Well, so that was a minecart. So that's something through ride home. I guess I spilled a flippers and scuba gear but later on when he was a underwater.

Yeah, I guess that fits within that as well like a lot of different ways to move around and then yeah, how cool would it be if you could build like a submarine? To I mean, I'm not sure I wouldn't want them to go too crazy with the Eagles. Well, they already have hot air

balloons in there. I mean the whole air balloon is school, but that will be different to having a playing for example or a helicopter like a whole air balloon at least to me is like you're quite limited and now you can move ya if you're going to add planes or the kind of stuff, that would be maybe a bit too much. Well, that's all polar bears. And if you can write a ram, I want to write a polar bear. Yeah same here. That would be awesome.

I kind of skipped past all the regular animals because I saw so many that I started shouting them out yet at a certain point. I guess. Well, there are a lot of animals that are already in Minecraft so you don't think two cents about it. And then you remember this is a totally different game. This isn't Minecraft. So yeah, it just looks a little bit like it. Yeah. Let's see. I saw a spot on there where you could create your own adventure.

I think I'm lost again. Oh, all right back you're back. Okay, so yeah, you could create your own adventure cheese, which I thought was really cool because I did. Some create your own adventure stuff in common craft which was rather fun. So if you can do that in game two with more focus on custom NPCs or Maps or stuff like that. I think that would be awesome. I heard something about there being quests. Yes. Yeah. And so I guess your wish will be

fulfilled for that. Yeah, yeah, I heard that was a little mention. I didn't don't know much more about it. But yeah, there were something about quests and I guess that the engines and emboss is like there will be actual dungeon. She saw a few gospels in the background in the video I did so they would be Dungeons and then like somewhere in that would be the boss with a little bit of a treasure. That'd be very cool.

Especially if you're going in there and fighting as a group you have to have teamwork and stuff like that. Yeah, I mean Minecraft everyone kind of if you're playing on an SMP. Basically the drag of a fight is the big multiplayer fight. So it'd be nice to have more than just one kind of fight like that, which I think yes game and the dragon doesn't even need to be group fight. Not doesn't. Okay, what's your next thing big? Well, one thing I thought was

interesting. I should have mentioned this earlier I guess but that flaming sword. We saw I saw runes on there which made me think like is that going to be a way of their way of enchanting? Like if they instead of having a job them like they used the runes. Okay, so they could be a cool thing to be yet. Describe something on your sword to get it. Right right. You have to yeah, right. You have our own sword, you know, that looks different ways how they do that in fantasy

stuff. Yeah, I think that could be an interesting way. Like they have their own way of enchanting. Maybe you can just find magical stuff. I don't know how they're gonna do it. Mmm. Yeah my last big. Yay moment. Was that the trailer pretty much felt like multiplayer was the way to go you I didn't think I saw much single-player happening at all. Yeah would yeah, I agree. I love multiplayer every video I make is multiplayer servers. Mmm. So I like the fact that they're

focusing on a multiplayer. I'm not I mean, I think it's great that they're focusing on it. I'm wondering if I like the fact that single player was an option or even like the entire it looked really high pixel like I guess which is a huge like you have the hopes and then you go to stuff. Yeah. Can we have like, I hope we can have like small or service like we always played on for example. Yes, just kind of a single player world with Bunch of friends, I guess.

Yeah woman this perfect leading into the stuff. We didn't like about the server and you're right. Yeah. I want to have my own server. Like I'd like the fact that we can control our own style that we don't have to go into a Hypixel server to go into a world that just so happens to be ours or something like that. Hmm. So yeah, I'm I'm worried about that too. I don't want it. Yeah be one giant Hypixel server I have to join.

Which now it's kind of looked like but I can see why they do that because obviously they like how big solo yeah. Yeah, so that's something I'm kind of I don't know it looked like they only had that and I'm curious how that's going to evolve. I hope it's gonna Can I have smaller stuff as well? I guess. Yeah, I'll go into the second thing. I was worried about this kind of small building. I didn't see a lot of building in the trailer Mmm Yeah.

First I said, I didn't see any but I went back and watched and there are building segments. But there's not a lot. So it's kind of a main parts of sorry here fine. It's like the focus isn't on building. Obviously it's adventure which is cool and all but that's not my forte. I like building things. Yeah, the trailer definitely didn't show. Well, I did a little building I saw was junkets.

Basically. Yeah didn't really do building that was actually the shot where I saw the whole air balloon if you want to again, I did look into that a little bit more because I was really curious for it. They have building one thing. I thought was really cool. It seems like they have the same kind of building blocks as Minecraft the so I saw wolves. I saw slabs. I saw stairs different kinds of stone like, you know, the chiseled and the breaks that kind of Orion's.

Yeah. So there was building that was actually one one shot. I mean, I saw a little bit of it that I thought was really Cool that they placed a slab and then when they face like the bottom of a block it plays like a horizontal slap against the bottom of the block and then they face the wall and it will place a vertical slab and then they looked at the floor and the placed on the floor and it will be a horizontal slap again on the top of the floor.

So that looks like well this you gonna have vertical slabs, but also like placing stuff seems to be kinda nice. I guess like Minecraft when you place a stair. Yeah, you place it like you face it. I guess it was a fun sentence to say it sounded fun. Okay, so it's building is obviously in there next thing. I'm lost again. Oh, you still with me? Maybe I've lost Bank. Something's go gold. You still there? Yeah, that will think I'm back.

Yeah exact. Now this is predicting is going on. Yeah, it's weird. I still want to say it's me because of how bad the storm is. I want to say, it's me because I think I had this during during the episode with decoy as well. Oh, yeah, I forgot about that. I have no idea what goes from am definitely gonna have to look into this. But all right. Okay, I guess we'll continue. Yeah, so with building my other

worry was spawn proofing. Okay. Yeah, you spawn proof Minecraft Builds because you don't want random mobs spawning around trying to kill you and in Minecraft that's done with light. But if you notice a lot of the mobs that you're fighting in the trailer are during the day. I mean, I guess that raises like completely different questions for me. But how is it gonna work with spoiling my are they gonna have a similar spalling like Minecraft us or I mean most of

the mopes I saw were inside. An area where they seemed like they were at the home. Yes, so maybe they spawn in certain spots like maybe in certain buildings Like a Village from Minecraft, but I don't know Village for Orcs or something is where we work should spawn and maybe you're safe in the normal. I yeah, I mean that's that's really interesting how that's gonna work out. Yeah. I mean one first that was okay. So mobs probably won't be able

to spawn on placed blocks. So if you place Long, yeah can't spawn on it. But how often do we really go outside of our base and place random blocks down other than torches to light up areas and stuff like that. So, who knows maybe they have like a beacon effect, which I've been wanting for forever in Minecraft that Ward's off mobs or maybe Insight like well, I guess I will be tricky if you have gave some the kind of things. Yeah. We just don't good question.

That's Interesting. Yeah. Hmm. What about you? What's another thing that you're worried about from? It kind of just looks like a female that Minecraft to be really yeah simple about it does wait which I mean that that's kind of the worrying thing. Like I'm not a big fan of heavy modded Minecraft like after some good mods for sure. There's a lot of bad modes as well and I didn't know It's risky, I guess to me whenever I see someone playing modded Minecraft. They're just like the biggest

hoarders in the world. Like all of all of modded Minecraft is about Gathering resources to do nothing really with those resources other than to build machines together more resources, and that's always been my big gripe about modded Minecraft and I get there's obviously a sections but exceptions to the way I'm thinking Gagging and there are players who play modded Minecraft for the different variants and like terrain or Weaponry or even just magic in

general. But a lot of the people I see here just hoarding random blocks. Yeah, now I do have to say I didn't really saw any evidence of molds. Like you can hurt stuff better, right? I haven't either but for example all the furniture in Minecraft, we don't really have that mmm, which I think is interesting because you have to be creative if you want to try and make furniture. Yeah, if you always have an option by I can place your

table. It's going to be a bit like The Sims like Just going to have to choose of these five tables and then maybe a few different colors, right? Yeah, which that we take away a lot of the creativity and diversity of builds right? Like oh you under the table? Well pick one of these tables or would it be to know a lot like the Chisel bits mind? Where you can take different parts? I don't know. I'm not sure but I agree with you if there's only like four

different kinds of tables. It's like well then everyone's dining rooms going to look the same. Yeah, exactly. So I'm curious I was that's kind of workout and then that's kind of what I meant with that heavy molded Minecraft as well. Like if they gonna add too much of that then it's kind of loosed. Yeah, you can't really create anything unique. I guess. Yeah, which again has me worried cuz they didn't focus on the building aspect of the game.

It was all an adventure based for most of the trailer Mmm Yeah. Then again the building might just be obvious because you know, it's the same kind of Blocky game. You did see someone choked some booths. You did see someone to Bayern maybe they thought in the trailer we want to focus on like the big differences we have of Minecraft. Yeah. We need to prove were not Minecraft. Yeah because they do I mean, yes, they got to be fair about that.

They got to show their definitely Something else than Minecraft as they want to I mean they're competing with the same people for sure and on the same level of customization my one where it was character customization. You have some depth on this I saw the screen where you have to scroll through and pick faces and shirts and pants. Yeah stuff like that. So what that what I heard was

yeah. I initially it worried me as well and I came across Some information where they said that they wanted sort of to get rid of that. You have to go to third party software to create a skin or having to download Skins. They just want to make it more convenient, but they do want to make the the option to be as creative and as unique with your character as as you are with Minecraft. Yeah, so they're looking for a way to Do off the best of both worlds?

And it seems like there's just so much options in creating your character that yeah, that should be possible. Also. I'm not well I didn't hear this but this is sort of a conclusion I drew myself, but they can offer all the software they made to create the game. So the character creation software and stuff. They're gonna release that. Yeah, so, I'm pretty sure we just going to be able to create our own mob so I wouldn't see why we wouldn't be able to create our own character.

One thing they actually did point out Steve and Alex like the default character stats not gonna exist. Yeah, so you've got to make your guy you got to make something. Yeah, once a I just it'd be really cool. If even if you didn't want to use a third party you could use their system, but if you did want to use the third party and start your character from scratch, you should have the

option to do that too. And like you said if they're giving away the software I kind of bet there will be a website out there that lets you do the full on character customization early on hmm. Well and by the way, the the screen looks you gonna have a simple option as well, right? Yeah. I don't want to put too much effort in it. I'll just select the shirt select the goal or don't yeah that kind of thing. Okay. I'm good with that. One of the things that have me worried.

I'll put both of these things together because they kind of work together the video creation room and the YouTube viewing rooms now right on the outside. This looks really cool to me but then I started thinking there has to be a lot of horsepower involved to put a video editing software inside a game that has all this other stuff too. And My worry is will that hurt my gameplay if somebody's trying to edit a video in high tail?

I missed a video editing part. Oh wait, you mean the the part where they have like the camera on real says if you were in like a Hollywood set. Well, not so much that to me. That's kind of cool that you can set up a shot like that. But there was another site like you could edit your mom and then I want to say there was a quick shot where he was editing a video. I maybe I maybe I missed it was wrong, but I want to say that it's in there. My computer is being a beep again.

Well, we don't worry about it. I'll talk about the YouTube viewing region to fix it because my worry with that is or those views actually counting to YouTube because if someone like me who gets very little views on their video and it's not because my videos are bad. It's just I'm a very small YouTube Creator so every view counts for me and if I get one view because the 30 views I average You're being watched and I hightail viewing room. That's that's kind of sucky.

Yeah, you don't want no you refuse to be in doubt, right? You want to be able to post a video on YouTube and then now get your views there. At least I'm assuming that was what you're talking about. I agree. Like I think it could be cool to have being able to watch your video and there are having a video creation room. To be honest. When I looked at it. I was just kind of like all right. That's the part. I'm not going to use.

Yeah, the video regarding just reminded me a bit of oh, so they're gonna have a sort of in game replay malt. That's how I picked it up, which I thought was really cool for the rest. I kinda ignored it was it seemed like Deflate I'm not going to use that. Yeah, I thought it was really cool. Because you know me I like to do random skits. Every once in a while. Yeah, that's true.

And I thought oh, well, that would be perfect for getting multiplayer random skits set up a lot easier than me trying to control camera account while interacting and game and stuff like that replay mod helps a lot, but I suck at replay mod because that's another feature. I have a set down and forced myself to learn. It's a little bit awkward to use as well. Well, yeah, I got that MIT.

Yeah. Yeah. Those were my last couple of oh my good Lord where they don't actually know I've got one more forces of nature. Yeah. I'm curious. What by yeah, so there was a scene where one of those involving real snowman guys were the characters riding a ram picked up a chunk of the earth and throws it at the guy riding the ram I told them was amazing. Yeah and talk.

Realized what if he takes a chunk at a mile and I've been building and throws it. Is it going to be like in ermine griefing all over again where we have to write a data pack to keep intermittent right looking stuff up. It's like no slap put that down. Don't touch that. I'm I'm wondering if you actually took the chunk out of the ground. It could be one of those she just sort of break dance like you big shit out of the ground in it to sort of appears in the sand materializes out of

nothing. Yeah, or I mean it seems like the bosses are definitely in like certain areas. So maybe it's not bad if that gets ruined. Yeah would be interesting if they would pick up like part of your building as well. If they're yeah close to your house I can see are you worried about Yeah, someone who doesn't trust in question, a lot of custom terrain will not so much this season that's getting ready to happen though. I don't like my custom Training getting messed up.

Yeah, especially on maps that look this good. Hmm. And what about you? What's one of your things that you're worried about? Well, it's kind of fits with like that if he molded thing I said, but it looks like there's just so much in the game. It's going to be like it's gonna be hard to build something because she just have too much Choice.

Yeah, that might suffer building wise I like you say, it might be just a bit too much Adventure the too much fighting this goes back to what we talked about with decoy and Having to set limitations. Yeah, and I think you're right that from what I've seen there are a lot of blocks in the game just as building. So the options may be overwhelming and the adventuring part is so strong.

How many times are we going to see people just become Nomads and Wanderers and Wander from town to town and just basically fight things and then get bored of fighting things and be overwhelmed on building options. And stuff and just stopped playing well to even increase the building options than the mobile little bit of background information. I saw us that they're going to heaven. Basically an RGB slider kind of system so you can basically recall or any block any way you like.

Oh well. Which this gun and I think that also counts for ground and stuff. So they have a picture where they show that feature and they sort of made a circle and then they made four sections out of it and it's on grass and then like one part of the 1/4 is bright red. And then one is bright yellow and another one is bright blue. And another one is bright green to sort of show like see you can you can just change the colors.

Anyway you like And they went to the extremes, but that means that every block you have you have every color as well which increases the options just by so much WoW. I don't know. Yeah be a bad thing could be a good thing as well. I think it it might be too much for for a lot of people though. Yeah, I think you're right on that. So you're breaking up real bad for me. So let's try to wrap this up and give Carlos some time to go through the edit and see what we

need to fix. Yeah, if you like the show despite of all the weird interruptions of my connection being real or something and I forgot about it and your Minecraft Community share this out.
