  • The game has overall become way too easy. 1.14 villagers completely broke gameplay making trading and building iron farms way too boring. The pre-1.14 mechanics were way more balanced and fun. Raid farms are just way too powerful especially with the nerf to natural spawning that 1.18 brought making witch farms basically unusable. Loads of features like that which just made things too easy. It feels like you're rewarded too much for very little effort.

    Chat reports and microsoft migration are also really controversial, of course.

    Not to say that they haven't made lots of positive changes but that's my main gripe with the development over the past few years.

  • The most concerning thing to me is the fact that they can ban users from playing on their own servers. Moderation should be on the server owners imo. Microsoft being able to ban someone from their own server that they self host or pay to host via a third party is a big issue.

    That being said, I don't think that Microsoft's moderation has been as apocalyptic as a lot of people made it out to be. It's just the principle that I take some issue with.

  • Obviously wages can effect price but the wages and cost of food in Denmark is proof that fast food joints can afford $20/hr without raising prices. You're bringing up extremes without looking at the reality that exists in other countries. Get out of here with your bad faith arguments.

  • They've made some pretty awful changes to the game since. That being said, I bet minecraft would have fizzled out if microsoft didn't purchase them. They're still pumping out regular updates and its popularity is huge. I'd definitely consider the acquisition an overall win.

  • From a capitalist perspective, there's nothing wrong with monopolization. The issue is with the capitalist perspective, itself.

    I don't believe in any of that. I prefer distributed ownership and benefits.

    That's good. I thought I was debating some free market psycho. I think we agree on this.

  • The issue is that this inevitably leads to monopolization. When a large business is able to keep competitors out of the market, they eventually are able to raise prices without any competition which is drastically worse for consumers. There are many reasons why monopolies have historically been broken by the government and why the government should continue doing so. It's not for anyone's best interest other than the shareholders.

  • Ok here's a revised paragraph for you:

    Fast food places are so fundamental as a stepping stone to building a career and to say only young adults who are exploited should be working there only says you are ok exploiting young adults.

  • If you're going to run Minecraft then Google "Paper MC".

    Honestly would much rather recommend Fabric unless you're looking to host a large scale public server. Serverside optimization mods like Lithium and Starlight are great and preserve the vanilla gameplay unlike Paper which breaks or disables a lot of mechanics by default.
