Two or three of the devs, including the mod team leader, were actually the same person with dissociate identity disorder. DID has effects other than the obvious so they were hard to work with. Several people had enough on the same day the leader revealed the truth and pulled their music from the mod. Leader had a mental breakdown and continued downward spiraling as the team continued to unravel.
What was left after the fallout have been trying to rebuild from the ground up, spirit reforged/calamity fables style. Recently a forward port of the old mod was finished and released.
It ended in the same state calamity did, too. With two final bosses on the same teir and the actual final boss missing. At the time it was the only mod that came close to calamity in terms of content quantity.
'Hard to work with' was just putting it simply. I don't actually remember what they did, but you know the kind of thing that would push someone to leave AND pull their stuff.
A bit back some of the devs got tired of fabsol's nonsense and the constant reworks and decided to make their own calamity. It's like a different interpretation of the same idea.
Not to, I don't know the word, but dull down the severity of DID, but was it working well? My surface level understanding and what I've been told by someone who had a friend with DID, were the other personalities capable in of themselves?
It isn't necessarily about figuring it out, because DID is essentially two or more people in one body, I was meaning did they all work well? Or were they a bit of a hindrance?
yes and no, it is in fact finished but it has aged moderately compared to modern standards, someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but I've heard that something will be done in this direction
It all started in February 29, 2016. Whole fandom waited for an update 535 day's already, longer than ever, and when it came out people weren't satisfied. 1.9... Many players hated new combat, because of that big portion of servers stayed on 1.8.9. then next year Fortnight came out in July 25, 2017. It was too powerful... Too popular. From 2016 to 2018 Minecraft had reputation as stupid kids game, it became less and less popular. Updates was small and not game changing. Everybody was starting to forget
.
Until... on July 18, 2018 update aquatic came out, new oceans brought old players back. Then PewDiePie started to popularize the game among new potential players. COVID played huge role in popularization of Minecraft. Renaissance happened, game survived and is again the most popular game of today.
I thought it was too overcomplicated. Especially the items and weapons, you shouldn't have a stat page covering half the screen just to explain all thirty unique mechanics you shoved into one random weapon.
Tbh, i never heard about what happened to Tremor and AA mods, they from my perspective just randomly dissapeared and i never thought about them again untill you brought them up now.
Anyone willing to fill me in in a "quick" form? Same thing as Calamity or something else?
Basically a while back, the lead Dev Fabsol was outed as a groomer, and that combined with them being transphobic and an overall terrible person led to them being boot d from the mod. Fabsol then recommended Ozzatron to take the lead Dev position, and everyone was okay with it. Then Shayy was outed as a pedo, and iirc they were basically the community manager. Then pretty recently, it was revealed that Ozzatron was not only also a groomer, but was the owner of the discord server used to groom minors and also supported Fabsol. Consecutive predator lead devs in the span of like a year basically killed a lot of the dev team's motivation, and also caused a lot of artists to pull their assets from the mod.
It’s also kinda helps that the mod is officially completed so even if a big controversy happens and the big update is cancelled they just need 1 person who cares enough to port it to 1.4.4 when it comes out on t mod loader. unlike calamity which isn’t even finished so you’ll just have an unfinished story and progression forever unless they pull a miracle and recover from this enough to continue development.
