Hello, and welcome to the 
Microsoft stores podcast.

And if you have joined us 
before, welcome back in this 

3
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:24,200
episode, I've written a story 
called the update that never 

4
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:27,500
was, and I will read it in this 
episode. 

5
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:31,200
So, stick around if you want to 
hear that, after the story, we 

6
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:34,400
have a quiz and after that is 
the segment, all about a certain

7
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,800
mob in Minecraft. 
So, sit back, relax, and enjoy 

8
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:47,700
the story of the update. 
The never was The update than 

9
00:00:47,700 --> 00:00:51,800
ever was when I logged into my 
world, I was immediately greeted

10
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,100
by mystery. 
Why am I underground? 

11
00:00:54,100 --> 00:00:56,400
I thought I've been playing 
Minecraft since I was a 

12
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,400
seven-year-old boy that's six 
years of playing Minecraft. 

13
00:01:00,100 --> 00:01:02,400
I thought I was pretty 
experienced but nothing could 

14
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:04,400
have prepared me for a game. 
Breaking glitches. 

15
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,800
Like this, it must be a glitch. 
I thought Microsoft has been 

16
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:11,300
glitchy since won't 13. 
Unfortunately, for my computer, 

17
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:15,100
Minecraft update 1.13 Mine 
almost unable to run Minecraft 

18
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,900
due to the multitudes of fish 
and kelp creating entity logins 

19
00:01:17,900 --> 00:01:20,400
at my world. 
Now, whenever I play Minecraft, 

20
00:01:20,500 --> 00:01:25,000
I have to coast along with only 
60 FPS, even for a glitch, this 

21
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,700
was really strange. 
I thought all my head, how could

22
00:01:28,700 --> 00:01:31,200
this glitch of happened? 
I thought this case completely 

23
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,000
closed off and never been this 
cape. 

24
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,600
So could it be the game? 
Not saving strange. 

25
00:01:36,300 --> 00:01:38,500
I decided the best course of 
action was to mine straight up 

26
00:01:38,700 --> 00:01:40,600
and hope not to encounter any 
lover gravel. 

27
00:01:41,100 --> 00:01:43,400
They have three screens showed I
was only around 30 Blocks from 

28
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:47,000
the service, I began Place jump 
mining upwards. 

29
00:01:47,100 --> 00:01:50,000
After only 30 seconds, the 
chorus sound of dirt being mined

30
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:51,400
begin and I whipped out my 
shovel. 

31
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,900
I broke through the surface and 
surveyed or was my house was not

32
00:01:55,900 --> 00:01:58,600
a Taiga Biome. 
I wasn't set to take a by him, 

33
00:01:58,900 --> 00:02:03,300
but where was my house? 
I turned a full 360 looking for 

34
00:02:03,300 --> 00:02:06,100
my house and not saying it. 
I stopped fully out of the hole.

35
00:02:06,100 --> 00:02:08,300
I was in. 
Luckily the someone's out and I 

36
00:02:08,308 --> 00:02:11,400
had full visibility after a 
short search later the house was

37
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:15,200
found Last was small and 
whenever I saw it, it filled me 

38
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:16,600
with Nostalgia as they 
remembered. 

39
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:20,100
When I first built this house. 
Three years ago, I walk up to my

40
00:02:20,100 --> 00:02:22,300
house via the gravel walk. 
I built leading up to the front 

41
00:02:22,300 --> 00:02:25,400
doors of the small house. 
Walking up to my screw store. 

42
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:28,100
I punched it open it. 
Wouldn't budge something must be

43
00:02:28,100 --> 00:02:31,700
blocking it. 
I'm on the door and looked for 

44
00:02:31,700 --> 00:02:34,700
the cause of the nuisance. 
As I had predicted a block 

45
00:02:34,700 --> 00:02:37,400
length about the door as I and 
not predicted. 

46
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,700
However, I was seeing a block. 
I never laid eyes upon before. 

47
00:02:42,300 --> 00:02:45,300
The block was purple and brown 
with pixels of green throughout,

48
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,700
it looked like a cross between 
the insides of a lit, nether 

49
00:02:47,700 --> 00:02:51,200
portal and a grass block. 
And I went on my game Into the 

50
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,100
microwave launcher. 
Yep. 

51
00:02:53,300 --> 00:02:56,400
I know update, I realized with 
the relief version sixteen point

52
00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:00,500
six point six must have just 
been added this explained all 

53
00:03:00,500 --> 00:03:03,100
the glitches, the new Minecraft 
update, must have just glued my 

54
00:03:03,100 --> 00:03:05,700
game. 
I went back into my world and 

55
00:03:05,700 --> 00:03:07,000
began mining. 
The strange block. 

56
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,900
It took a while to mine, even 
with my mother at pick, I picked

57
00:03:10,900 --> 00:03:13,000
it up, kiss me. 
We called something like up City

58
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,000
grass or something. 
Nope, instead it had no name at 

59
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:18,800
all. 
When I held the Block in Selma 

60
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,400
Hotbar, I clicked on in my 
inventory, no name or data 

61
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,100
showed up, this was a lot 
stranger in the in the cave. 

62
00:03:24,100 --> 00:03:27,100
I thought I Justified the 
strange occurrence with the new 

63
00:03:27,100 --> 00:03:30,300
update as I had done before 
looking into my house, I stood 

64
00:03:30,300 --> 00:03:33,200
aghast at the site before me, my
walls and Floors were littered 

65
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,400
with these strange, unnamed 
block, the block had to replace 

66
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,400
the Cobble Stone. 
And wood words left me. 

67
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,500
All the memories this house at 
held were destroyed almost worse

68
00:03:41,500 --> 00:03:43,100
than that. 
On the other side of the room, I

69
00:03:43,100 --> 00:03:45,900
could see a block in place in my
chest with no remnants of any of

70
00:03:45,900 --> 00:03:49,500
the items that were in there. 
I hurried over and confirmed, no

71
00:03:49,500 --> 00:03:53,300
items were left, luckily, I had 
another dress with more items in

72
00:03:53,300 --> 00:03:55,700
building blocks, including my 
supply of totems and put 

73
00:03:55,700 --> 00:03:58,000
diamonds. 
So I wasn't completely rubbed in

74
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:02,300
my possessions, after closing my
diamond chest, I walked over to 

75
00:04:02,300 --> 00:04:05,200
the strange of Sydney and grass.
Looking block I minded again. 

76
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,100
Just to see if something with 
the name would drop this time. 

77
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:08,800
Nope. 
Still just a boy named. 

78
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,500
I dropped the blocking discussed
my house. 

79
00:04:11,500 --> 00:04:13,700
My Memories. 
My possessions gone. 

80
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,899
I walked objectively out the 
door preparing for the tedious 

81
00:04:16,899 --> 00:04:20,200
task of creating new home. 
Greeting me, when I opened the 

82
00:04:20,208 --> 00:04:23,100
door was my yard and my house 
covered in the strange block. 

83
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:27,600
I now despised with a passion, I
stormed out of my ruined house, 

84
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,400
my destroyed yard and walk 
straight towards the forest. 

85
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,200
Then I remember the diamonds and
totems in my chest. 

86
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,300
I had to turn back. 
I turned around and know 

87
00:04:36,300 --> 00:04:39,000
something I hadn't noticed 
before the blocks weren't just 

88
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,800
randomly thrown about. 
They create a sort of path that 

89
00:04:41,900 --> 00:04:45,400
and to lead deep into the taiga 
forest, I rushed back to my 

90
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,700
house and realized his stain. 
Believe that I would be unable 

91
00:04:47,700 --> 00:04:51,600
to carry the items in my chest. 
I will return, I told myself. 

92
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:54,700
I walked back outside and 
started walking down the 

93
00:04:54,700 --> 00:04:57,400
widespread and Meandering path 
made of these strange obsidian 

94
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,400
grass. 
After around 5 ends of walking, 

95
00:05:00,500 --> 00:05:02,800
I came into a plains biome and 
was really to have better 

96
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:04,500
eyesight in my wide, open your 
surroundings. 

97
00:05:04,900 --> 00:05:08,700
I continued onward soon, the 
plane spy emerged to the base of

98
00:05:08,700 --> 00:05:11,400
a large mountain, at the edge of
my render distance. 

99
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,600
I could barely see the top of 
the mountain, the path did not 

100
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,600
lead onto the mountain, 
thankfully, but turned sharply 

101
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,400
to the right. 
And continued onwards into the 

102
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,400
distance. 
I began tracking again, and I 

103
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,400
swear it was Dampen than at the 
beginning. 

104
00:05:23,900 --> 00:05:27,000
Finally, I'll behead, I saw a 
small Stone structure squatting 

105
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:28,600
it in the midst of an old-growth
Birch. 

106
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,300
Forest. 
I walked where early ahead. 

107
00:05:31,500 --> 00:05:33,900
I had not built this. 
I didn't think something like 

108
00:05:33,900 --> 00:05:34,800
this. 
Could have been naturally 

109
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,800
generated. 
I was 15 blocks away. 

110
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,600
When I noticed movement, I 
looked at where my peripheral 

111
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,900
vision had seen it and saw one 
of the obsidian grass blocks on 

112
00:05:43,900 --> 00:05:47,800
the path, start to move, I step 
back and just a few more begin 

113
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,400
to creep towards me. 
I turned and started full-on 

114
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,800
sprinting away. 
Hoping turning my back on the 

115
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,900
blocks with not a huge mistake. 
I turned a mad Sprint and saw to

116
00:05:56,900 --> 00:05:58,900
my horror what appeared to be 
the whole path. 

117
00:05:58,900 --> 00:06:02,200
Rushing straight at me. 
It was no use block. 

118
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:03,900
Surrounded me and start closing 
in word. 

119
00:06:04,300 --> 00:06:07,700
There was no escape the circle 
of the blocks closed in on me at

120
00:06:07,700 --> 00:06:09,800
elbow or below the Bedrock, my 
game crashed. 

121
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:13,100
Once this respond screen came 
up, I did not know what to 

122
00:06:13,100 --> 00:06:14,700
think. 
I was still in shock. 

123
00:06:16,100 --> 00:06:18,300
A few hours later after 
purposely avoiding getting on my

124
00:06:18,300 --> 00:06:21,200
computer, I finally went on my 
computer and looked up the 

125
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:26,600
details of 1.16 16.6. 
Even though I suspected it is 

126
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:28,900
still came as a shock to see. 
There is no such update to 

127
00:06:28,900 --> 00:06:31,300
Minecraft. 
How did that update get on my 

128
00:06:31,300 --> 00:06:33,700
PC? 
I was an only child and I'm sure

129
00:06:33,700 --> 00:06:36,800
my parents have done it stealing
myself. 

130
00:06:36,900 --> 00:06:41,500
I reopened my grip and so right 
away that the 1.61 16.6 update 

131
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,400
was gone, it was gone from the 
updates folder of my in 

132
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:48,100
Minecraft code to I quickly 
opened up my Minecraft world and

133
00:06:48,100 --> 00:06:50,500
saw that I was in my house. 
The house and its surrounding 

134
00:06:50,500 --> 00:06:52,300
had no trace of the obsidian 
grass block. 

135
00:06:52,900 --> 00:06:54,800
Even the thanks for my distress 
were back. 

136
00:06:55,700 --> 00:06:57,900
I never sell the block again, 
but that doesn't answer the 

137
00:06:57,900 --> 00:06:59,800
question. 
What happened in that microwave 

138
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:11,300
world? 
It is time for a quiz. 

139
00:07:12,100 --> 00:07:17,100
The quiz question is, which game
inspired Notch to make 

140
00:07:17,100 --> 00:07:21,700
Minecraft? 
The options are a Roblox be 

141
00:07:21,700 --> 00:07:27,300
Tetris see in for minor. 
And the cubivore, survival of 

142
00:07:27,300 --> 00:07:31,500
the fittest.
