Although there’s plenty of time left until the next major Minecraft update comes out, Microsoft is already taking steps toward uniting the game’s ecosystem scattered across several different versions. In a seemingly unwelcome attempt to promote Microsoft accounts, the company has made them mandatory to login to Minecraft Java Edition . It’s weird that it hasn’t happened earlier given that Mojang was purchased six years ago. Perhaps Microsoft was hoping to migrate the entirety of the Minecraft community over to Bedrock Edition, but Java Edition remains overwhelmingly popular thanks to its limitless modding possibilit
On one hand, Diablo 4 is a dark ARPG with a deep narrative campaign as you try to save Sanctuary from the ultimate evil. Yet, if you aren't feeling the most focused, jumping into a Seasonal journey allows you to literally run around and kill hordes of enemies and collect massive lo
Minecraft , meanwhile, is the single best-selling game of all time. Many fans agree that Mojang's title sets the standard for sandbox crafting games, and even after eleven years of operation, Minecraft is thriving by just about any definition. It's had a modestly successful spinoff in the form of Minecraft Dungeons , an isometric dungeon crawler which took fans quite by surprise when it was revealed. Minecraft is also receiving regular content updates and managing a sustained explosion of popularity on YouTube, where it accumulated 200 billion views this year al
While Minecraft Java Edition has always been a generally separate experience with greater creative freedom and the ability to take advantage of installing user-created modifications, it has recently undergone a unification process. Soon, the game will also require a Microsoft account to launch and log in for existing owners, which will bring it closer to the family of Minecraft products. With that in mind, Java Edition remains an independent game unlike Bedrock Edition , which is available on literally every imaginable gaming platform with cross-play support but is limited to officially offered additional content via Microsoft St
YouTuber and **Minecraft ** speedrunner Dream has been doxxed, in yet another blow to the controversial streamer over the past weeks. The doxxing came about after a picture of Dream's kitchen posted on his Twitter account, which was apparently enough for a few obsessed fans to use to find his personal information and location, a testament to the often destructive power of the internet as a tool for online stalking and harassm
Dream has already faced a few other controversies over the last few weeks, including being stripped of his speedrun record on Minecraft following allegations that his incredible luck was just a little too incredible to be credible. As catalogued by Twitter user defnoodles , hardcore Dream "stans" have since taken matters into their own hands, when Dream posted a picture of his kitchen to one of his Twitter accounts (whether they were motivated by his cheating or by his face reveal is unknown). Using online real estate marketplace Zillow, Twitter user mazouwu managed to figure out Dream's precise address and Nintendo Switch Walkthrough|Https://Switchmixzone.Com/ offered the information to anyone who asked before deleting all of the content from their acco
Of course there are "fans" out there who claim that Dream deserved the doxxing because of his refusal to reveal his face after actively hyping it up, but that's a toxic and bizarrely entitled mindset. Dream has the same rights to his privacy as anyone else, regardless of his online presence, and any punishment he deserves for cheating at Minecraft is already being dealt with. Dream is no saint in either respect, but no one deserves to be doxxed , especially when such instances can often be followed with personal threats and even violence against the victim or their friends and family. Hopefully this won't be the case with Dream , and his story should serve as a warning to other streamers that obsession and ingenuity are often bedfellows thanks to the power of the
Goats are among the few brand new mobs that will be added to Minecraft with the _Caves & Cliffs _ update. These offensive animals tend to ram other beings they encounter, and given the fact that their habitat essentially covers mountainous areas, incautious players can experience freefalls from dangerous heights if they take a hit from goats. Powder snow is another new addition, which basically endues blocks of snow with behavior that of cobwebs allowing entities such as players and mobs to sink through
**Minecraft ** players can have a first proper look at multiple new features included in the Caves & Cliffs _ update thanks to a recently released snapshot for the Java Edition. The test client comes shortly after the community was treated to an early representation of mischievous goats and powder snow, also included in the upcoming update, via a _Minecraft Bedrock Edition beta rele
According to the official blog post by Mojang , the list of features included in the 20w45a snapshot is pretty impressive, although it doesn’t cover all the novelties that the Caves & Cliffs _ update is about to add to _Minecraft . Perhaps, the most enticing addition is the introduction of bundles – specialized items that are used to carry and store other items. These are not proper backpacks, unfortunately, as their internal space is limited to a single stack, although it could be any combination of items. For instance, a bundle can contain 32 blocks of stone, 16 blocks of iron ore, and 4 ender pearls - or 64 different individual blocks. Apart from that, the 20w45a snapshot contains amethyst blocks spawning in clusters, new candle decorative items, blocks of copper (and, obviously, copper ore along with craftable recipes), and last but not least, spyglass and tinted glass, both of which require extremely rare amethyst shards. Players should be aware that the snapshot can potentially corrupt their save games, therefore it's highly recommended to back up the fi
