Sans is only a costume in Smash because Ness is already a fighter and you can't have 2 of the same fighter

Unpopular opinion: Adding "kits" to minigames that didn't previously have them makes the game less fun.
For example, adding kits to Minecraft Survival Games. The game is fun because you have to scavenge for all your loot, and make decisions based on where you think you can find better loot and how much risk you're willing to take to get them. If people who have money or more hours in the game than you can just spawn with a horse, or with strength potions or a set of armor, it completely takes away what made the game unique and replaces it with surface-level PVP arena, and even P2W depending on how bad the server is.

I think we can all agree #BeeGate is an extremely serious issue that transcends modern politics.
I, for one, welcome our bee friends. They're really only cosmetic and only spawn in a few biomes.

I don't watch Corridor but this video actually has some good tips for those of you making animations with guns

I just tried Beta 1.3 of Minecraft and I gotta say, it is way more brutal, and I like it. You can't shift-click which makes looting chests slower, but strangely methodical and satisfying. You also can't sprint, which means you really can't run away from enemies without building, which isn't anything special but I actually like how it changes combat. It's also much darker, torches don't light up as much and you don't have a brightness slider in your settings. It makes exploring caves and night time spookier.
But also, the terrain generation is much better in my opinion. While there are some impressive bits in modern Minecraft, Beta feels much more varied. The generated caves are so much cooler and more fun to navigate. While I love ravines in modern Minecraft, Beta's caves feel much more like caves, rather than linear tubes you just walk down, which are often what I find modern caves to be. In the couple hours I played today I also found some genuinely cool bits of cave and overworld terrain, and I haven't had that feeling of "Okay, that's pretty cool" in a long long time. In fact, I would love if cave generation shifted back toward that of Beta, while keeping all the new stuff they've added (ravines, ores, monsters).
Idk, you should try it and tell me if I'm wrong. Not saying Beta is better than modern Minecraft entirely, but I think it's interesting the direction they took Minecraft, away from brutal and difficult survival mechanics and more toward exploring biomes and finding new animals.

Minecraft's old generation was what made the world feel unique, now it's kinda boring, but you can still have some fun... Except for some biomes. So biomes (such as snowy tundra) are a barent wasteland of nothingness, it's extremely boring.
Caving also became uninteresting, I enjoy travelling through caves to find resources, but most caves are just too small, so most time is just passed mining in straight lines.
Minecraft became far easier over the years. I, personnally, enjoyed the new pvp mechanic (no, it's not perfect, but it's not as bad as everyone keeps saying. Spamming a button as fast as possible to win a fight isn't intuitive either.), but I really dislike the new crafting mechanics added. Ok FINE the new crafting book is usefull to make some complicated recipies, but it was part of the fun! Now look at the new stone cutter for example. Where's the crafting? You just place stuff in it, click a button, take it out. It doesn't feel like Minecraft anymore, I just hate it so much. Phantoms are a nuisance stopping us from building away from your base for more than a few hours, punishing you with hard to hit ennemies. I wanted phantoms to be new exciting ennemies that would appear in the End, a dimension that lacks a variety of blocks (just like the nether) and mobs.
The game is called Minecraft, mining is uninteresting, the crafting has become an option and you cannot live dengerously for more than a few hours without getting punished by the game.
Yes, I am going to say it :
Minecraft used to be good.Mojang is trying to make the game more interesting, I love the aquatic update, I love what they did with the village and pillage update but we're loosing what makes Minecraft Minecraft.
I guess I also made a rent, sorry, wasn't my intention, I got carried away!

@Shayzis Honestly, you are 100% correct.
It's the main reason why I'm staying on 1.12.2.
Nowadays, everything is just too convenient. Too easy. And if the upcoming 1.15 combat update will be anything like it is right now, it will obliterate what little difficulty Survival has left.

Through my years on the forums I've noticed a few visual elements on the forums that don't exactly line up. None of these are truly important and I'm not gonna throw a fit if they aren't fixed, just pointing them out for consistency's sake.
FirstSpoilerWhen editing your profile it still says your Minecraft username is used to show your skin next to your posts, but that hasn't been the case for a long time now.
Second
SpoilerWhen viewing the activity on someone's profile the upvote and downvote images under posts have a strange white outline that interferes with the one next to it. I think this is actually IPBoard's fault.
To fix this, just Ctrl-F in the CSS file to look for ".ipsReactOverview ul li a img" and ".ipsReactOverview ul img". Changing the scale in the first class to 1.3 and removing the border in the second class looks good in my opinion. The reaction images it's pulling actually have empty spaces on the sides which causes this border error to happen.
However, those same CSS classes affect these bad boys and I'm now realizing Invision Power are a bunch of dummies. It can be fixed, but you'd have to separate ".ipsReact_reactCount a img" or ".ipsReactOverview ul li a img", which Invision decided to group together into one declaration, rather than split it up, which makes sense until you consider they're used completely differently and in completely different areas of the website. Invision is silly ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ but separating them is pretty easy.
Third
SpoilerThere are actually a few instances where profile pictures are shown as circles, akin to the IPBoard default theme rather than the square-y Mine-imator Forums theme.
Mousing over any profile picture
Replying to a status update
Mentioning someone in a message or topic
These can all be fixed by changing the border-radius on all of them to 5px in the CSS, which I tried, and it looks much better in my opinion.
That's all I've noticed but I'm sure there are others tucked away in the website that other people have noticed. Again, none of these are crucial or anything and I could go my whole life without caring about most of them, but hey, consistency is always nice and all of them are pretty easy fixes.
