Why did Microsoft feel the need to drain every last ounce of soul out of Minecraft?

Minecraft was always soulless zoomer shit

money

have sex.

Literally the same fucking thing

I don't see how dull colors and ugly biomes make more money though.

cherry picked shit, although not as common terrain like in first pic is still plentiful

All terrain in the new one looks the same. It's not cherry picked, I made a world on both and walked around for like 5 minutes.

dilate

cope seethe yikes etc

18 month waits between updates and the updates only containing a couple of block retextures n a minor feature that could've been coded in an afternoon.
game hasnt been any good since beta 1.7.3, but was starting to show cracks from beta 1.4.

Because what's the point in adding anything when you can just get it from a bazillion mods?

Dumb boomer.

>plains and swamp, 2 of the flattest biomes
GAMES DEAD PACK IT IN FOLKS

Maybe it has something to do with Microsoft plopping $2.5 billion dollars into the game.

Minecraft lost it's soul when it lost float desu

Why do you act like the game wasn't changed before MS bought it?
>BETA

classic.minecraft.net lets go

>shift entire focus of game from block building to adventuring

>give up and sell out to M$
As much as I hate Microsoft, this was something Mojang did entirely on their own.

I started in beta 1.5 so I don't REALLY know how it was like before that but I know Notch got lazier and lazier with time.
They all look like shit. Plains should look colorful and lush, not like baby vomit. Also the biomes are so small in the new Minecraft that you're bound to encounter a swamp or one of those horrible ice/mesa biomes pretty often.
Microsoft aren't fully responsible but it's only gotten worse since they bought it.
>>shift entire focus of game from block building to adventuring
More like "shift focus of game from survival to adventuring". Everything's so easy now that all you have left to do is run around and go "OH LOOK SHINY VILLAGE" "OH LOOK SHINY MANSION". (not that original Minecraft was ALL that hard but that could have easily been fixed with a few updates)
>>add the absolute minimum amount of adventure content over 3 years, lots of reskinned blocks and prefab structures
I would be fine with them taking their time if the new content was actually GOOD. The beta updates before 1.8 weren't all that big but they added COOL shit.
>>give up and sell out to M$
Yeah. Microsoft could have revitalized the game (literally just hire a few modders Valve-style and let them add lots of cool shit) but unfortunately they didn't.

I wish there was more reason to travel far in the surface instead of having all the important stuff be underground which is basically the same across all biomes

So you got unlucky. Create a new world.
