God I miss when Minecraft was a small game, Microsoft stuffed it full of greedy DLC and made Bedrock version (which was designed to be the “faster” Minecraft ) so slow from the bloat that the Switch version is damn near unplayable now
I have never moved on from version 1.5.2 ever since my favourite modder from the “Better Than Wolves” mod decided to stay in that version. Some 8 years later when I finally got coerced into playing the 1.15 it just felt like the game completely stagnated both technically and artistically and was just adding fluff to maintain engagement. It used to run on my old 32 bit Pentium with 4GB RAM like a breeze, but oh wow, bees! The Nether update was fun I guess, but I’ve seen better mods in like 2014.
I refuse to run the bedrock edition on the simple principle that it’s not moddable and doesn’t run on Linux and at that point it’s the opposite of why I even bought the game back in the day. Every Microsoft decision with it since buying Mojang, from bankrupting Telltale to keeping two parallel minecraft main versions, to whatever the hell was Minecraft Dungeons/Legends, is a great case study in enshitification by itself. If I get triggered enough I may even do a write-up on it in the weekend lol.
