yknow ultimately the way i feel about the mob votes is just that there's prolly better ways to drive engagement with the community at this point. like as much vitriol as it breeds between players n towards mojang, you'd think they'd try something different this year, but either they or someone in charge of them doesn't really care, n it kinda sucks to see that.

#june speaks #minecraft #there's all sorts of stuff i could argue against mob votes but at this point it's just the apparent lack of fucks given that i don't like #they're doin a better job of makin the vote feel more fair this time by keepin the mobs on equal footing i'll give em that #but i'd argue that's actually INCREASED hostility between players n towards the devs #cuz now instead of ''obvious good choice that seems to be mojang's prefered winner'' and ''two mid or pointless choices''#we have options that provide long-requested features that we're worried we'll never get if they don't win #since they basically never intend to let these mobs see the light of day when they lose #ik they don't just throw em away but they end up on a list of super low-priority ideas #its been seven years since we've had the first mob vote with mobs that are different from eachother so like #at this point i'm not confident we'll ever see most of if any of these mobs in the vanilla main game #so i think fears that we may never get included features is valid n it doesn't surprise me to see people at eachother's throats over it #at any rate i'm curious to see what the final mob is but i'm still prolly gonna vote for the crab #i'm still a lil salty about how they stunted the mangrove's atmosphere last second for no reason #and i just want my irl favourite biome to feel more alive #plus i just think crabs are cute
