Dragons Are Coming To Minecraft

[DeadlyYellow]

All I can say is: BOO.

I'm not giving up BuildCraft and IndustrialCraft for a dragon. Besides, the mod community is already leagues ahead of the developers. I hold Minecraft up as one of those titles that have fallen into the bizarre niche where the actual development of the game is more detrimental to its progress.

It's Gorenaire! Everyone gather in front of Karnor's and buff up!

 

[Draconalis]

Oh baby! Oh baby! Oh baby! Oh baby! Oh baby! Oh baby!

Draco loves him some Dragons!

But the 'mod community' isn't one single thing. It's lot's of independant people/groups working on things. You can't compare the sum of their work to Mojang's, since only two people work on official Minecraft. And since the mod community are apparently gods of production, they'll update their mods in less than 24 hours. And not say that they won't because 'updates are too rapid'.

I'm sorry, but I gotta go with my gut; Terraria 1.1 will be better than whatever Minecraft 2.0 throws at it.

Apples and oranges. You're talking about two games that scratch two completely different itches. Terraria is about gear collecting and boos stomping, Minecraft is about survival and creativity.

(begin sarcasms)But they both have blocks in! That makes them totally the same in all respects! (end sarcasms)

In their tongue he is HEROBRINE! DRAGONBORN!

 

[SinisterGehe]

Well this is really going to help with that legal battle.

Oh my yes... Like dragons are such and original context that they can be used as evidence that notch is trying to confuse market to buy hes game with the name scrolls.

Umm... That makes no sense???
Far I recall there is only 1 dragon in Oblivion, don't know about the other Elders' scroll series games tho...

I almost laughed, a bit... If I wouldn't be too drugged up atm...

 

[martyrdrebel27]

Dude, now Notch is TOTALLY trolling Bethesda. good for you Notch. haha.

 

[Cain_Zeros]

Well this is really going to help with that legal battle.

My first thought.

I'm actually inclined to think he did that just to piss then.

Or just to try and piss off Bioware as well with his new game "Giant Flying Lizards that Breath Fire - Time"

I thought he'd decided on "Wyvern Era". Easier to remember and whatnot.

though its just as likely that the creature is benevolent, and greets players with the gruff, yet comforting voice of Sean Connery.

Admittedly that's just my personal hope, but I think we can all agree that the modern gaming landscape would greatly benefit from an infusion of Sir Sean's warm Scotch vocals.

Oh please, oh please let it be this one. (Your personal hope is backed.) As a chiild of the 80's I must say if I can ride this dragon I think some small portion of childhood magic will be captured on the block-based screen. If it would call be Bowen as well, that would be strange but not altogether unwelcome.

Not only are there going to be dragons, but there are also going to be "Enderdragons!"

You can bet I'm excited.

 

[Hamish Durie]

well that proves it

adding dragons to anything increases awesomeness by 100%

[Pirate Brahm]

And we're that much closer to The Elder Scrolls: Minecraft!

 

[Firehound]

And we're that much closer to The Elder Scrolls 6: Minecraft!

Fixed that for you.

 

[Mikeyfell]

This is what Bethesda should be sewing Mojang about!

Or Bioware should sew them for using the word Dragon.

Mojang shouldn't make Scrolls they should make a lawsuit simulator.

There we go. not even 10 in the morning and I've already reached my "joke in poor taste" quota

 

[MintsMan]

I say it's about time. (Dragons are AWESOME)

 

[ckam]

Does he become my companion if I feed him some cake?

 

[Dovah Kiin]

The aether mod people would have these done already.

 

[Dovah Kiin]

first off notch talked about adding dragons last year so he is not just trolling

It's pretty incredible how Notch can release a few screenshots and get tons of press. As for the important thing, specifically the topic of dragons in Minecraft, they'll be a nice addition if handled properly. But my main problem is that Re-Logic already beat Mojang to it [http://i.imgur.com/8cFIa.png].

I'm sorry, but I gotta go with my gut; Terraria 1.1 will be better than whatever Minecraft 2.0 throws at it.

Terraria sucks and studio Gibri should sue them cus that dragon is a ripoff of haku from spirited away

(and yes I have played that lame ass game)

Hurrr DURrrr then Studio girbri should be sued for copying never ending story! DURRRRRR. You'd better be trolling. But your pony kind of points to you being a genuine moron.

and i doubt you played terr aria for more than 5 minutes.

 

[HerbertTheHamster]

That's the most derp dragon I've ever seen

Notch should stick to making simple enemies, this is just laughable.
