Hey everyone, welcome to the weathering effect.
This is episode 9 is today's date is August 13th, 2019 and I
am bunk out up or bank for sure. And today we're going to talk
about some Minecraft. What have you been up to this
week? That's what other than getting
chocolate all over my shirt and desk and mouse keyboard and all
that great jazz. I have actually been working on
overhauling My Stream. Yeah.
So mixer has an interactive keyboard, which I take Advantage
of I think it's a very cool feature.
And if you're streaming on mixer without the keyboard, you're not
really taking full advantage of the site.
So I wanted to use it keyboard wasn't anything to write home
about it had some sounds it had a couple of bad joke buttons and
somewhere to find me Buttons. Not So Much Anymore now, it's
got a full-on menu system. Now.
It's got decorative buttons that aren't just colors.
It's got really nice images. I really like this keyboard.
Yeah, it got a mess of upgrading you did an awesome job.
I think they look good. I mean, I like the fact that
they are smaller now, they didn't take away as much from
your stream screen. Yeah, and that wasn't the big
point to why I wanted to do it. Hmm.
I guess I still have to do. Mobile version I keep forgetting
about that. I forget I have a ton of people
who watch from their phones. So I need to get that keyboard
setup for the mole people. I mean, I'm assuming it's a lot
of copy and paste work I guess. Oh, yeah.
Well, it's really just it already has all the button
setup. I just have to arrange them so
it should take me five minutes cool.
Yeah. Well then Brady can't get on
that. Yeah.
Other than that. I've been working on the XP on
demand machine. I think this is the third.
Week in a row. I've had some update on that
machine. But yeah, I've ripped out the
kelp Farm because you know Minecraft doesn't smell equally
I mean, how bogus is that? By the way, did you know I can
help we'll give you point one XP and so will a piece of armor.
I didn't I remember that you had to switch to Cactus we go scalp
like at less experienced and then when I went to test it for
you in in single-player world and and it did like noticeably
gave you less experience, but I Googled it as well and I noticed
that there's fairy-like kick. This gives a huge amount of
experience compared to like pretty much anything else.
Yeah, which is why I'm to the point where I think it's a
glitch in he'll be fixed in 115. It's definitely a strange
mechanic. I would like the experience are
not mechanic. But just how they divide like
how much experience you get for stuff it it seems a bit weird.
Yeah and to like to me a hopeful like armor chest plate gives you
point one experience or point to experience.
Why is that not the higher experience total?
Yeah kick. This gives you one.
Yeah, I'm sorry, but if I know somebody who can smelt an iron
chestplate into a nugget that guy has way more experience in
the guy who can throw a cactus on a fire.
Well, I guess if you only get some nuggets out of it, maybe
that's true. Maybe he's very good at his job.
Yeah. Yeah, so I ended up ripping out
the kelp and now I've used this Cactus Tower that's I think I
use 65 Cactus Source blocks. It's way improved compared to
the first cactus farm. It's still not impressive by any
means but instead of the time the first Farm took I want to
say it's like close to 10 hours to get one of those furnaces up
and ready to go. This one can do it in like three
or something like that. Oh, wow.
That's a good Improvement is a very good Improvement.
It's like a third of the time so I'm happy with it's not crazy.
You still got to wait around. But I don't need a repair items
that often so I'm going to have multiple furnaces at the ready.
Yeah, I was going to say you don't have to like reparo
something every three hours. So it's probably gonna buy all
up eventually, which is exactly what you want.
Yeah, that's awesome. Yeah.
The last thing I really did was worked out some details.
I have my base printing it up. I really need to get back to
working to the outside of my base.
But I had a lot of inspiration to add some more Greenery my
base. That's the one thing I kind of.
Minecraft what had wouldn't be more plants and greens and grass
and stuff like that. Yeah, yeah, but enough with what
my week was like chocolate and all what was your week like the
chocolate I guess was like that minutes ago.
Nobody even yeah. I know they caused a double take
and they will see ya gave us a good laugh, which is the best
thing I guess so you kind of inspired me.
I guess I you worked on your stream info and I figured I'll
work on that you worked on the keyboard and I worked on my
stream info. I hope they did that and I think
I Did every gold job I'm happy with it.
Yeah, I really like yours it like as soon as I heard your
idea. I went dang it.
I should have thought of that. I don't know how it came to me
just it's like I just made sort of a pin bar.
It seemed quite obvious, but it was a lot of work.
I feel admit. I did put a lot of effort that
it was something to do and I think he's like that stop yet
still. Oh you haven't I forgot about
that. I meant to look it up when I got
home that day because you said it while I was at work.
Yeah, I haven't seen the complete version on desktop yet.
Yeah, and initially because I uploaded and sort of picture
parts. So I made a full picture and
then I broke it up and bark so you could click on bits and that
would give you like I got a Twitter button that goes to my
Twitter page and then I got a little picture of me which links
to my YouTube and I was like, yeah.
It's a check on there with your link to the donation stuff like
that. So I had to break it up and
different pictures and then Upload those through and do the
info panel and I had like gaps in between the the parts and
then you you actually helped me out on that link something that
would get rid of those gaps. And now it's all one seamless
picture. Yeah, it's real.
It's just I was crawling through read it one day and ice and I'm
subscribed to the mixer Reddit and I saw a guy who had the same
problem you had. Yes, like holy cow.
Here we go. Well, I was close to the
solution by myself, but I guess Yes, you're not allowed to
completely modified the source code or the yeah.
Yeah, just like ways how you have to do it in there.
I guess make it work. I do a lot of stuff but I can
understand source code being one things.
You can't touch. Well, you can 13 apparently, but
may be limited. Maybe maybe my HTML coding isn't
what I think it was maybe I just made mistakes.
But yeah saying on this subject of your thing.
I just had an idea for your pin board instead of the check.
You should have had a binky dollar.
I did think about it and like an American dollar but instead of a
president you have the bank face.
I'll be completely honest. I was a bit too.
Lazy to go make one. We just yeah, I talked to check
on some nice ideas. Well, although I'm not sure if
it's clear that you can click on all the beds, but we'll see.
Yeah, I think we'll for the fun bit of it.
It's way more exciting to me than people like City being able
to use it. Yeah, it's very cool looking.
Yeah. So what else did I set a new
record for my speedrun? This week as well.
Awesome managed to get about 2 hours 1 hour 47 minutes and 52
seconds. Nice, which puts me in the top
100 who? Yeah, I mean, it's 98 but it's
still pending. Hey, that's it top on it.
You are top 99 by the Yeah Yeah, so that's pretty cool, I guess.
I played a lot of faster-than-light.
It's just a different game and and my girlfriend sort of hinted
to me that I might get a 3D printer at some point, which
would be awesome. So he got really excited about
that. Yeah, that would be awesome.
That's sort of been in my week. It's been yeah nice week but how
to get too far of a tailor you talk about playing like faster
than light. I was looking at the new no
man's Sky update. Yeah and Kind of got me curious
to the point where if the game is on sale.
I might pick it up and try it out.
Really. Yeah, it's a game filled quite a
bit but it did in the beginning what you think she'd do it.
So so what made you change your mind on that?
So what I loved was so no man's Sky promised the moon literally
or as we say the center of the universe.
Yeah, and when it came out that that just wasn't possible in
their game. They kind of doubled down and
said, okay, you know what? You're right we messed up big
time. We're going to do everything we
can to make this game everything that we promised and looking at
this update. I'm not going to say it because
you guys should go look it up. We're Minecraft.
So I don't want to talk too much about another game, but they did
what they said, which is what I love about devs and stuff like
that Mojang's notorious for yeah, we kind of messed up.
So we're going to be putting out.
Updates to fix our mistakes and make it the way we said.
I mean you got 114 they were constantly trying to throw a new
update out there to fix the mistakes that had yeah, and no
man's sky is taking this huge leap forward and like no man's
Sky Beyond it now has a VR mode that will work with somebody not
playing BR. It's not it's own separate
thing. Oh cool.
I saw that I was like, oh that's kind of cool and then some of
the updates to the game mechanics and stuff.
I'm like, you know what that could be a fun game to stream
every once in a while. So if it's on sale, I might pick
it up and it sounds interesting. I'm definitely going to look at
it as well. I think it might be worth it.
But I guess it's Minecraft news time because we actually have
news this week. Well tiny news just just a
smidge but the super duper resource pack canceled we got
thank Carl for that. He threw that in there at the
last second. I didn't see it.
I didn't ya know they were making it to be almost.
So instead of this kind of news. I guess like I want to say the
super duper pack was mentioned in maybe 112, okay.
But it was strictly for console and Bedrock editions.
I think. Oh, well, I didn't read up a
little bit on my after I saw it in our notes.
Yeah and sorry and what is it? It didn't sound like they were
working on the for Kate extra pack, which I don't want school.
I didn't notice it was for I thought it was just for Java to
be honest. I don't see any mention of java.
I thought it was just for like the console versions.
Yeah, that makes more sense because I think they already
asked for Kate extra bags from for my for Java.
Although not from Mojang itself. And this was Mojang itself.
Hmm. Yeah, the main point was
preformance, which is yeah makes sense.
Yeah. I have a PS4 and it can only
output 720. It can't even do 1080 right of
for a fork a resource pack. Pack, I don't really see the
point and then like I have a Nintendo switch and it can only
do 720 now granted. I know an Xbox one axe and a PS4
Pro they can do the 4K, but if you look it's not really 4K,
it's like 10 to 80 and then raised up to 4K.
Well, I mean your screen on. Yes so much, right.
Mine definitely aren't 4K. So yeah, I don't know.
Well, I have a TV in the living room.
That's for K. Okay, and that was just my
roommate really wanted 4K TV and he bought it so I'm not going to
complain. Yeah, all my other TVs are 1080.
I can't tell a difference. I'm sure you're somebody that's
going to be too high resolution that you just come.
We'll see I have really good eyesight Yuma doctor say so I've
got really good Vision like, okay.
What is it? I don't know, but I can't tell a
difference. I don't know if I'm crazy or not
and maybe my doctor needs to retire.
Now. I mean to be almost like I'm at
the same thing when when it's so long ago already, but when they
release like HD, I didn't see much difference with like HD and
normal stuff. Yeah.
I mean now we definitely but old HD improved as well.
I guess once he and I can tell when A fall back to Old
standards. Uh-huh, and I'm thinking maybe
I'm just so used to what I see on the computer screen because
let's face it gaming Graphics are through the roof nowadays.
Yeah, even if it's not 4K, it's amazing.
Mmm. So maybe I'm just used to that
so when I go watch something on TV And granted I'm not I don't
think I'm watching 4K stuff all the time on the TV heck.
I don't know if a single like we use Roku here.
We don't have cable or anything like that.
Right? I don't know of anything that
plays in 4k, I mean, we've done couple voodoo movies 4K I guess
Voodoo is a streaming something as well.
Yeah, it's just a movie rental site, right?
I can't tell but yeah, yeah, I don't think the super duper
resource pack will be missed. I kind of have a feeling it'll
be brought back up next console generation.
I mean they're going to update Graphics at some point for sure.
Yeah. Yeah, who knows?
Well, yeah, every time they update a console that console is
like just right behind a PC and graphical capabilities for about
6 months. Yeah, and then PCS update again.
Yeah, so we'll make sense if they wait for it for like the
next console Series. Yeah, but supposedly that's like
next year. So it's like why go ahead and
Calgary now, it's gonna be the PlayStation.
What is it father? If I say some five?
Okay. I don't know what the Xbox is
going to be called yet, but they're numbering system.
It's probably the Xbox. Well, they had a point five or
something and the Xbox, huh, then let magic 360 and then the
one that's I've no idea what the good go with next and I guess
360 is one Circle and then ones just one.
So maybe next time they go Xbox square or how about this if
they're talking about one Circle because of the 360's a circle.
Maybe the next one's going to be a circumference.
So it's like 3.14. Their XBox pie well would be 6 6
point. It will be double pyrite by
Sunday half circle. I mean, I'm all for double pie.
That's actually called Tau. We're getting a new mouth nerdy
stuff. Now Helia.
Stop cursing at me, huh? It's like when I say work and
you'd like cover your ears or not.
You don't like mouth I can do math.
I just don't like math. Yeah, I'm with you there.
It was just a fun fact. I knew I was like, yeah.
Yeah, what's math? I was I never really understood
how I knew how to get to the answer, but I knew I could get
there. Yeah, same here.
Well, I'm I'm dyslexic which would sort of it's an
optimization problem or at least yeah in my case that there's an
issue of that. So you don't always automatic.
So mouth was kind of an issue for me because quite often I was
like, oh if you encounter this you got to do this, but that
wouldn't like I have to understand what happens and then
I can just reason my way through it.
Yeah, and I definitely remember doing what was it statistics
because because you had like to use buttons on your calculator,
so they were like, oh if you're in this situation use that
button like what the step button do they never explain so I'd I
can't do that. But yeah, I always just reason
my way through like Mouse exams and stuff.
I couldn't remember stuff. Well, I was going to play
finally figured out what Excel could Oh because I played with
excel in high school but coming to college.
Yeah, that's where I really kind of learned.
Hey, I had a summer internship with an engineering firm and
they use Excel files for everything.
Nice. Oh that really let me knew what
Excel could do. So when I was going to
architecture school and the big thing with them was designing
staircases, they weren't more. So you have a lot of
architecture schools that are about philosophy and making
things look pretty this was in that school.
They were a All school you're going to build a house to most
efficient way possible. You're going to take every
little space is going to have a use because you're not going to
build a mansion. You're building a house.
That's affordable. I'm assuming they're also aiming
towards like self-sustaining and that kind of stuff.
Yeah. So the big thing was designing
stairs in a way that they can be used for stuff like half bass or
closets stuff like that. So I ended up setting up the
heart. About designing stairs is North
Carolina law requires like a certain amount of with for the
trade and you could only be so tall on the Riser.
But you also don't want to be so short on the Riser.
It feels awkward walking up and down on them.
So to figure these all out you have to like use the length that
you have available and the height of your ceilings to the
next floor and I set up an Excel file to take all these variables
in and the hard part is once you get one variable.
You usually have to put that same variable back into the
equation for it to refigure out the other steps and then
oftentimes that first number you put in will no longer work.
So you have to come up with another number with the three
other variables. You just figured out to create
the fourth variable again, sounds like a setup.
I set up an Excel file that would do the math and whenever a
variable was wrong it would or well.
It's a rock whenever a variable was not within a certain size
range. I had pre told it to look for it
would turn the so red and whenever a cell was red it would
immediately though another number and and start the whole
thing again. Oh tonight.
So it's sort of outdoor Soul. Yeah, I never had to know how to
do stairs because I had my Excel file once I learned how to do
it. Once I made the Excel file.
So every time we had a stupid stare question on an exam, I
would just type in. Well, this is the height of my
ceilings and this is the length distance.
I have to make the stairs and it would brew and it spit out the
number I needed for a tread and riser and then I was done and my
teacher hated that But why though that's that's clever lets
you know, right? Why waste time because I'm good
measures as well as sold the Excel file to two people for 10
bucks. Nice.
So that's probably why she hated me.
They were the two kids that really couldn't figure out how
to do the stairs. So I felt bad.
Oh, so one guy said give me ten bucks and the other guy took me
out to lunch and which I mean this is basically the same I
guess. Yeah.
But it was we're getting way off
topic like that was way off topic.
Yeah, it was like on another planet.
Yeah. I'm just gonna blame Carl on
that one car. Why would you let us do that?
Come on? Yeah manage managers.
I mean, he's gonna start sitting in with the calls it with a
little bleep button to tell us to get back on top.
I'm picturing him like pointing at his watch know like sitting
there in a chair pointing in this one.
For some reason he's awesome. Okay.
So we're back on topic listener comments.
Yeah. We have one awesome this another
comment this week. We can go there before we go
there. We're gonna poke you guys.
Hey, we have a Discord. You guys should really join it
because we don't lie have a lot of people and there and it's
where we first look for comments and topics of discussion stuff.
So please join their and leave us comments and on top of it.
That's yeah, it's good that you did that.
You should poke back to the real tough choices in this court.
Yeah. Yeah.
So Albany actually send this in the pretty cool.
He basically said that topic for this weeks episode.
Yeah first it was just gonna be a little thing we could talk
about. Yeah, it kind of expanded to
take over the podcast exactly. Yeah, you made an awesome well
questions, I guess questions. It's sort of a two-parter.
I'll read it out. So he said looking back in the
history of the game. What is the most important
change that happened? And what changed could really
affect the future of the game? Which I thought was awesome.
Yeah, let's start with the first question.
Yeah, do you want to start with that?
I'll start because I have the earliest update.
Actually I say it was read the updates out in order.
Yeah, and then we so I have the first shoe earliest and I'll say
why those two were important. I know he's looking for a single
answer but I am with you in the fact that I don't think there
was a single update that can come be considered.
Pivotable I'm able to Pivot to main words.
So I'm able to name the best one.
I think that I think is probably the best one.
But yeah, they're all pretty good.
Yeah, I chose thinks that wouldn't normally like on the
surface. You wouldn't think that they're
very important but deep down. I think they affected more than
people to new. Yeah.
So like my first update was 1.2. And this is not it's such an
important update. It didn't get its own fancy
name. But this update is the most
important update to Automation in the game and I say this
because it introduced Iron Golems.
I got really confused. But when you typed in like
automation, I was like yeah, what do ready right Redstone and
stuff and then yeah, I really think about it without iron
golems. You don't have Pistons.
You don't have Hoppers like there's just the two most
important things when it comes to Automation in the game.
Yeah. So there's that the next update
you can agree with this being super important just for the
surface. It's going to be the one point
for the pretty scary update. I'm going to do some clicking
real quick. So this update on the surface
brings in like just new Mobs the withers wither skeletons bats of
witches. It came back with better AI for
the monsters monsters Canal where armor and stuff and
block-based you got pumpkin pie. You got anvils.
You got item frames flowerpots beacons.
It was a ton of cool stuff. But what really kind of set this
off for me was this was the big mob automation update because
thing about some of the biggest farms, we have nowadays are
which farms and wither Farms or where their skeleton Farms?
Yeah. That's a good point.
I mean it all goes back to farming because to me red
stones. The end-all-be-all greatest
accomplishment in Minecraft. That's what says Minecraft apart
from everyone else you do with redstone is your farm mobs, you
get all the drops know totally agreeing with that but it's one
of its biggest uses for sure. Yeah.
I agree in the fact that that's that its sole purpose, but
that's what you see in like the interwebs.
Yeah. Yeah.
It's definitely its most everyone's using It to get some
mob drops for sure. Yeah.
I think you're up next. What was your big update?
Well, I mean, I got 1.15 the Redstone update.
I mean they already have the red stone.
But yeah, I guess I said a lot of 11.5 said 15.
Did I say 15? Yes.
I'm like, that's not out yet. No, that's definitely not out.
I don't think they'll be doing Redstone.
I know but we'll see now. Yeah, 1.5 to the Redstone
update. They already had it but they
added like hope are some comparators and What was the
draw bars they added a load of the the the features that the
definitely gift like variety to use Redstone and be creative
with it and basically making Redstone what we know today.
Yeah, I mean basically what it is today.
They added a few more things later on but not that much.
Yeah, I think Redstone is Stephanie like the main. we're
still discovering it sort of we're no I'm just offering
Redstone which which I think is an awesome feature because I
guess they sort of started I'd say that the whole discovering
Redstone started in 1.5 and not fully sure because I didn't play
back then but by what they added it looks like it and I mean we
talked about earlier El mango and crazy stuff he's doing yeah
that guy like every week comes up with a new crazy farm that we
Never thought of exactly so I'm thinking that's one one of the
biggest game-changer stated pressure like surface.
Why is not looking into deep mechanics or anything like that
Redstone and updating Redstone is the best.
Yeah because that's still being Explorer.
Yeah, like, you know building a beacon we filmed that it's
useful but it's we've explored that area and I think it's
impressive that they managed to make something that still
explorable after what it five six years.
Now. I'm not sure that that's
impressive think of the millions of trillions of hours people
have put into playing Minecraft and playing with redstone and
just say we're still finding new Redstone stuff.
It's crazy. Yeah, that that's really
impressive I think. Ah, yeah, the next the next one.
I think it's yours again. Yeah, so we're going to the
update that changed the world 1.7.
You guys can't get onto me for that title literally mueang
named it that 1.7 is the update that change the world and at
first I was kind of saying that to be funny because it didn't
really look like it did a lot but it was the first real big be
do. Going to say of biomes adding a
ton of variance to already well-known biome and then adding
Savannah as a whole in there, which meant acacia wood dark oak
got put in there to add a little of biomes.
Yeah packed ice was a big thing. You can't really do read some
without packed ice lately. Yeah through grassless dirt for
the Builders out there. Hmm.
Let's see Ed added all the flowers.
We kind of know of today the Tulips the Blue Orchid LOM
allium. I can't ever say that word as
their oxy Daisy poppies all those flowers whose the to some
flowers down with the kingdom hyoni's rose bushes lilacs.
Double Tall Grass. I mean just all this stuff.
Different kind of fish wait, it's puffer fish.
Oh, I guess I got so used to thinking of puffer fish in the
113 update. I forgot puffer fish were thing
when you were fishing. They used to be a fishing thing.
Yeah. It's like it really changed how
to how the world looked I guess. Yeah, so at first it was kind of
a joke that this was named the update that change the world but
when you really look into it, it kind of was the update the
changes yelled. Yes, so the next one it's sort
of in the same same court of sort of area.
It's the 1.8 that the Bountiful update.
It just massively changed. I think how the world looked and
then added a lot of realism. I'm not sure if that's the right
word. But just a lot of liveliness to
the game. They had a guardian Temple
something in the water. You do get you know just so
much. I don't know little features
that just make the world look more I guess.
Yeah, and I speak about that on my last update.
I'll mention but before we get there, it's like to me that's
Quality of Life game development right there.
That's add the little right words.
Yeah. Yeah.
That's what I was looking for. Yeah.
It's a quality of life kind of
update. They got a few of those and 1.8
is the update. I started playing Minecraft, so
it's kind of my favorite. I'm not sure.
I mean, I guess it's here's my favorite one.
It might be one of the later the last two ones.
Well, if 1.8 is not my favorite. It's 1.9.
Which you have listed next. Yeah, so transition I did.
Yeah, 1.9 definitely different reasons game mechanics.
We got the lights ra which obviously is a huge game changer
with. Oh, yeah don't think many people
can imagine playing without any lights or any more.
I mean so many people just wear it constantly.
They redid the combat, which is not why I chose this I don't
think that's a major Game Changer too much.
Dual wielding definitely was I don't use it myself a huge
amount but almost always when I see a stream or YouTube video
people have like they used are often so much.
I think that's a that's kind of a big game changer that went
unnoticed. Yeah, what happened watching
streams and stuff. I can tell immediately if it's a
Bedrock streamer or if it's Java streamer because the dual
wielding hands just kind of sets.
Java apart. Yeah, I mean you can do it in
Bedrock, but it's very limited. Like I think you can only hold
arrows and a map in your offhand.
Okay? Oh, that's right you this may be
a shield? Yeah, they have shields finally.
So it's just kind of like what might I add know that the do
will take hand if they ever take that functionality away.
I might lose it. I hope they didn't prove it a
bit. I don't think it's great.
But yeah, they can't get it can get rid of it anymore.
Definitely. No, but going on to my next one
to expand on the Electra a lot of people forget the fact that
the way you flew back then was a punch to Bow and shooting
yourself in your own keister. Yeah.
Yeah, so 1.11 fireworks to help Propel you With the Elijah but
also shoukry boxes show core box changed everything for me and
which is really sad because you use them way more than I do.
Yep. I love shoka boxes, and I
remember the days playing on what was it Roman survivors
doing your long tunnel in the nether having to walk back and
forth with supplies. When it was just the worst thing
in the world. Yeah sure okra box gets rid of
that granted. They should not have put llamas
in the same update Ashoka boxes this you because because it
really kind of killed the Llama purpose because I think llamas
are really cool, but you no longer need llamas with stroker
boxes. Yeah, they added Lamas and they
sort of had a better functionality the move from
moving items than the donkey hat.
But that that old just went to nothing because they are So at
otago boxes. Yeah, I no longer needed a
caravan of animal animals to carry my stuff because I had
magical pockets. Yep.
Okay. Let's go on to your next one
because I could talk about shoka boxes all day the little sound
they make. Both let's go created in her
not. Yeah, the next one that we're
basically just skipping 1.12, I guess 1.13 for me.
It's another one quality of life.
I'd love the fact and I think it's well the Seas were empty.
Yes, basically and they they change that we which me, I don't
know half the world. There's an extra sort of
playable option. I mean you could play in the
sea, but it was It was kind of boring.
And then now it's it's almost I mean, I don't want to call it an
extra biome because I feel it's more than that.
Yeah. Yeah, that's that's just a mess
of game-changer. He'll often do you stumble
across a coral reef and just stop what you're doing to look.
I always look at the coral reefs exactly.
I do the same thing. If I'm flying.
I'm nose diving into the ocean to check out of coral reefs.
I also just like to do see the watercolor.
So when you boating through and I wish in and then it changes to
the lighter color and you know, like oh, I'm in the warm water
though. I wish they added more water
colors to the Aquatic update. Yeah.
Well, I don't I don't think I mentioned this ever and The
YouTube video or whatever but the main reason I chose my swamp
spot. Well, you know that this during
the 1.13 three updates there was one update where one type of
swamp by I think is swamp Hills. It would have like yellow water
which which I loved and my little start or her around my
portal is actually in the swamp Hills, which would have yellow
what I always call the be water might get Deep I mean, I think
it's a shame they got rid of that.
It was cool. Yeah, I would love to see like a
really clear Aqua looking color. Yeah.
I mean, we already kind of have a darker blue and a lighter blue
for when you get too warm ocean and cold ocean, but I'd love to
see more shades. Oh, yes watercolor.
Like you said the yellow water in the swamp was really cool.
And yeah kind of realistic. I think they could do.
Thing with red probably as well, maybe.
Oh, yeah, I mean think about the creativeness of having red water
because there's so many adventure maps that need like
blood and they kind of have to use right like red Stoners some.
Wow. What is it magnet and I'm
hanging with blocks, uh, the red coral stuff.
All right. Yeah, like blood and stuff.
It's like, well you get flowing red water.
Hey, let me take a ring and throw a die into the follicle
with the water. It died the water.
Aw. Don't be awesome.
I'm just being able to die. You other would be awesome as
well. As I said read and I think you
told like sort of bright right? Well you started to talk about
blow which is kind of bright red.
I was more thinking about the sort of murky muddy water that
you see and like the Amazon. I want to say I might be wrong.
I think you know what? In the sort of energy.
There's a lot of clay in there like yeah floating in the water
which gives it the color. Well, I mean just yeah go
towards the water. I think that could be definitely
cool. We wonder guess again.
We do that a lot, but it seems to come out pretty good.
I guess so for the final update that I chose to be.
The game-changing update is the village and pillage update and
for also need one choice left. That's true.
But I mean, let's face it. I picked what five updates you
have for updates and you would have had five updates except for
I picked up the shoulder boxes. But yeah to me the village and
pillage update shows at Mojang is willing to reevaluate
previous updates and build on them, which to me shows progress
quality of life. Huge steps to take to make this
game lasts a long time, which I'm super excited for even
though that's that's a really good point to make the bugs that
so much. It's the thought that matters in
this instance that yes, thank you for going back because let's
face it Village engaging or village farms and all that kind
of stuff. It was stale.
Yeah, everyone kind of knew how to set up a breeder everyone
knew how to farm for materials. It's been the same sense of what
one eight one seven. Mmm.
Well, I mean, let's face it. They have been working on
redoing a bunch of stuff lately anyway.
But you made the point that there are like they went and
listened, I guess to the community.
I think that's that that might be the game changer as well if
they keep doing that really well that that's gonna make a
difference. Now all this being said does
this mean that 112 is the most useless of take 201 1 and 1/6.
We didn't mention it. I mean I wanted to say you like
that. These are I guess the most they
all were big changes then I mean whatever you want they held
something that changed the game. Yeah.
We went through all the updates and I told before I went through
it. I told our dad sister.
Lot of updates that didn't really get anything but when
you're really looked through it and what we're at at they all
have at least one like feature that so okay.
That's that's big. I was I think 1.3 added the
Denver chest. Yep.
I mean that's a huge huge thing to be added.
We just didn't mention it. I mean it's not as much as a
game-changer as tourist. I guess.
I don't know. Yeah, so the next topic and
obvious question was yeah what next change could really affect
the future of the game. Yeah, I told about it really
really. Well.
I mean it's hard to come up with something.
But the main thing is I think if they if they manage to add
something like a redstone and then not necessarily the same
like something electronic but if they manage to add something
that you can still explore and still discovering new things and
after four five six years, I don't even know how long it is.
Yeah that that would make Minecraft.
Or that would affect the future of Minecraft a lot that like
that would keep replaying replayability alive all that
stuff. I tried to come up with
examples, but obviously that's her to think of something like
that. I thought maybe something like
magic. I've heard it mentioned before
it's a dangerous thing. I guess.
Yeah ruin it completely but I didn't chanting is sort of a
magic thing. I think think magic there is a
way to add it in a good way that could Maybe do something like
that. Yeah, I think magic would be an
awesome update. But I'm with you in the fact
that magic could also ruin it at the same time.
Yeah, that's to be done carefully and well thought out
but I think I think it could be something that could could be
several to maybe something like Redstone and I'm all for
murmuring trying something like magic just based on the way.
They treated the illusion as a mom.
The fact that they kept trying to perfect this mob that didn't
really work that well in the game and were able to realize
well, it's just not working out for the best.
So let's scrap it. Yeah, I think if they were to
try magic and they couldn't get the balance right?
They would be smart enough to say.
Well, let's just scrap it. I hope so.
Yeah, I think another way by the way is this well, but not as
much but I think if they do a good combat overall adding
different weapons like you could you could create a lot of
variety in there, but I don't think it would ever be as big as
that's a redstone but it'll definitely it could be something
that's Keep keeps being explorable.
Yeah, I mean I think about it. I just realized a lot of our
pack podcast come to what would we want to see next in the game?
Yeah, it does. So yeah somehow we always try to
think of something different that we haven't mentioned before
I mean granted we've talked about weapons and stuff.
But the idea of like a full-fledged magic system to me.
It's really cool. I want to be able to like well,
hi Suze were recording a podcast here.
I mean, this is once an episode. She's got to do something right
and yeah sort of. Chris dog, I don't forgot what
I'm saying. So you were talking about the
magic thing. Yeah magic system.
Imagine having like a tree of abilities that you can climb up
with by unlocking it bad Spencer Chief mints in the game.
Hmm. So let's say one of your powers
could be basically a flint and steel like you could light
something on fire without needing a flint and steel but
you couldn't get that to you did all the never another a
Achievements. Oh, oh, that's interesting.
So that could be something really.
Yeah, maybe you can reduce fall damage by like 50% once you
complete all the end damage or I don't know tame a Shoal core
somehow. It would be really cool to take
Michelle GE it where they would be.
But stuff like that really fun. Yeah.
I mean again, it's really tricky.
I was surprised they could I mean it's yeah, it's a really
it's a really dangerous area to be messing with.
Yeah. Yeah, if done right it could be
awesome. For me if my being wants to
change the game. You're gonna add Red Dragons
because I've been asking for it for I don't know how many
episodes now I think Red Dragons have been mentioned like since
what wasn't episode 3 of the podcast.
I have no idea, but I just know I don't have a writable red
dragon yet. So I'm going to keep mentioning
it. Hang on I did.
Oh no, it's your for you. I physically could not ride that
Dragon. I don't know what Paparazzi took
that picture because I can't do that in game fair enough.
The other kind of stuff I would think about would be I really
want some Sky biomes. I would love to have floating
islands. Yeah, for some reason a lot of
people don't like the idea of floating islands and I think
floating islands as a biome could be really cool what it
needs to be done. Right?
And the fact that chunk borders are really weird.
Because they're really square, right and my thought process is
if you have a floating island biome that the chunk below it
because you know, you have vertical chunks the same with
horizontal chunks. But do you I thought they were
sort of I thought they were giving the main chunk is
horizontal. But you have different sections
going up vertically in the same chunk.
Okay? Yeah, I think from I don't know
how to say this properly basically down to bedrock should
be gone like that should be are nothing should be able to take
that space. So you have these floating
islands, but at the same time you kind of have to make the
floating biome. to fit in the weird Square chunk borders So
it'd be a weird shape. You couldn't just do I don't
know. They would be extremely hard to
me to make look right? I'm not really following because
I'm picturing for example and islands and then they are like
they don't have that issue. Well, that's because we're all
surrounded by in Islands now imagine an in Island right next
to it desert. There's nothing under Island.
It just go straight to bed rock. It just it's a hard cut I get
you not so you're thinking to have the the sort of Sky bios be
on the same level as a regular by oh, oh, no.
I want the Sky by I was like to start at y level a hundred and
fifty or something like that. Yeah, but then you could just
have a normal biome on the ground.
Be up higher and then sort of be in Sky by did you have a Giant
Shadow on the ground all the time.
It just would basically become a big mob farm.
Yeah. Yeah, that's true.
Like that's since we mentioned Sky Islands.
I've always been thinking about how would you solve that?
Because obviously you're stuck with the bill payment as well at
the rain. So that would be weird to you
would always see them which you wouldn't want.
So I thought maybe if it's fly up and get Like it why level 500
you reach buildable area. So again because even though
build limits at like with 256, I think you can fly up to like why
so many thousands I think even see that was my first solution
was you would kind of create a second area kind of like how in
the nether you have the Nether and then you have above the
Bedrock ceiling, right? So you would have the Overworld
and then you would have above build limit where these islands
are. Yeah.
Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
Like if you go I in a few reach sort of buildable spoke again,
or they would probably generate and islands for you could do
from or not and Sky Island. Yeah, the other solution I had
was that you would have them at it like why 150 but everything
below them would just bedrock because obviously mobs can spawn
on Bedrock men rocks already a darker color.
So Shadows are don't really matter.
Alright, so that was my other thought process, but I don't
care how they do it as long as there's Red Dragons.
Yeah, I think that would be a cool addition.
It would create sort of a new how do you call it?
No, it would create a new glance like the Nether and dance and
overwhelmed. She would get the sky.
I guess. Yeah, that would be cool and to
be that could be a good place to start the birth of the magic
abilities and stuff like that. Oh, yeah.
Well, so it would give a lot of opportunity to To add biomes to
that a lot of new mopes and then he'll I know maybe new villagers
some new kind of friendly Mobsters live together and you
can treat me if I don't know. It's like infinite ideas that
you could pretty much put in there trying sure.
I mean, it's like having a whole new dimension granted.
I yeah that them concentrate on fixing the end and the nether
before doing something like this.
Well, I mean I'm assuming they would do I darling or as well
like let's fix some stuff before we like had another major thing.
Yeah. I hope they do add it in the
future that it will be awesome. Yeah, I think it's it's the
in-game to me when I hear a sky island and Red Dragons.
I'm going to squeal like a little girl has never screamed
before. Hmm.
Yeah, and I think it would be awesome if you could only reach
it by flying so you would Just have to like get the Ender
Dragon. Well, you don't necessarily have
to do that to get chokers but or Eli tram, but that's that's
that's a a normal player does and then, you know get your Eli
try get out of the end and then you can fly up.
I guess make markets, you know, it's sort of a next next sort of
thing than the end. Yeah.
Oh, that would be awesome. Well my intercept yeah, I think
we're sort of reaching an end already, aren't we were yeah, we
