If everything just sort of started the game in that setting, and that worked. And it would be really cool if you could actually do that without actually hacking the client.
It's a Minecraft game but with rifles, so it's kind of like Day of Defeat combined with Minecraft. So I'm not sure if you've heard of a game called Ace of Spades. But we would have to put a lot of effort on the mod API because that will have to allow the game to really change. In that way, we can put popular mods into focus.ĭo you think there's a point where - this is a really weird analogy, but it's sort of the best I can do - you could enable a Counter-Strike of Minecraft, where it becomes a new game. JB: Well, I don't feel I have the responsibility to do it, but I kind of envision that in the game, there will be featured mods, popular mods, and then you just click on them, and you can play them. You'll have fun."Īre there any plans to curate or point users to mods? Because right now, I guess, all of that stuff is out in the wild.ĭo you feel like it's part of your responsibility to point people towards things? So, the good thing about mods is that then we can let people who really want to specialize on one part of the game, we can tell them, "Here's a really great mod. Some people hate engineering tools because they don't understand how Redstone works anyway. Like, some people really hate the adventure and RPG part of the game, and some people want more of that, more dragons and whatever. And also, Minecraft is a sandbox game, so people have very different opinions about what you're supposed to be able to do in the game. Simplify that process, so more of the community can actually enjoy those things. There are already a lot of mods that add a lot of stuff, but they are quite complicated to install. There will definitely be much more content - tools and blocks and mobs and stuff added to the game - that other people can use in their constructions.
JB: You mean like the comparison of building stuff in Minecraft and adding stuff to Minecraft? Is there a difference between someone building something versus just sharing it, and actually a team just working on something within the context of Minecraft? Have you seen that? So, what I mean is I will work less on features, and more on the engine part of the game. So, there's a change in priorities, that we really need to open up the game for other developers to add mods, and share mods, and run servers more easily. The things we are doing are quite similar.īut it's 1.0 now, and we are such a small team that we can't compete with the rest of the world with content. JB: That specifically won't affect the game very much because Notch and I have very similar game design philosophies and ideas. I took the design lead for Minecraft so he could have free hands to do other things.
