Ok, i seemed a bit harsh from my first post.
What i don't like is the noses and giant chins...

Quote from Albatoonoe

Yay, more bitching about the NPCs. Personally, it adds flavor to the game. It makes them more then "just some humans".

And, if you really need to reskin them, give them hats to compensate for their foreheads. Problem solved. Stop complaining.

Just some ugly humans :biggrin.gif:

I think they're funny, personally. XD Like Squidward. Hee.

I agree that they're funny, it's just that we need "serious" NPCs.
The point of these Villagers aren't to make us crap our pants laughing.
If i played a bit more of 1.9, maybe the look will grow on me... I don't know

I'm pretty sure the reason why Notch put large noses on them is the inbreeding within the NPC village. I dunno, that just sounds like Notch's sort of humour.

I thought crying about the NPCs was last week?

prsonally they should have just been steve variations.

off topic, i find it hilarious how our character has no nose and these guys have huge ones, there just rubbing it in our face

I like these npc's, at least their not boring.

Although i would have loved pigmen, just sayin.

they are boring they dont doing anything but walk jump and look retarded

Yet. It's called 'patience'. Somewhere between 1.9 official release and full official game launch, Notch said he plans to have the NPCs do something. We don't know what yet - some might sell stuff, forge stuff (you see a smithy in some NPC villages), farm the wheat that grows in the villages and make bread, some might fight alongside you (unlikely, they seem to have their arms stuck together, so unless Notch changes the model all they could do 'believably' is headbutt)...

Cut off the nose to spite the face

I'm just not satisfied, i'm not insulting Notch.
It'd be pretty nice if they were changed, but now I don't really care that much anymore.

Who else doesn't like their noses?

Exactly! They should be Steve (Chad or whatever) variants.
Great idea

That's why we need mod support, to make the stuff not ugly.

Hah

Quote from assassin10

I am extremely opposed to human NPCs.

But if you want human NPCs just retexture them and give them a turban.

XD

Quote from BioRules

I like them as they are. I don't want them changed.

Seems we are at an impasse. If notch changes them he pisses me off. If he doesn't, he pisses you off. Net result: 1 happy and 1 pissed off. The difference would be it would take time to make you happy, while it takes no time to make me happy. What should he do?

Small scale utilitarianism ftw!

Quote from TheFlyingWombat

He should move them into the Nether as Mutated Colonists, OR he removes them :biggrin.gif:

Or he can keep them in the Overworld. I personally think it would be cool if some villages spawned with Pigmen. Oh, and when the Pigmen and Testificate villages are within 1000 blocks of each other war would break out.

I feel like wasting time changing their skins is pointless right now when we are so close to the official release date. Mojang is focusing on finishing the game, adding the new features they've been working on, polishing it, and removing bugs. I'd rather them do that then spend their time retexturing everything that a small group of people don't like. I just feel that there are more important things, and besides, texture packs do a GREAT job of making them look cool!

The NPC's do look like squidward except with 4 tenticals, brown, and act like normal humans! I mean that is rediculious!

I don't know why you don't like them, but I think they're a cute.
Er.. Cool, I mean. :blink.gif:

Quote from crysis9999

Its supposed to be a NON HUMAN villager you know..... Either this one or pigmen

If i had a choice between "Big-chinned squid from a cartoon" and a variation of Steve...
I'd go with Steve. I'd be totally fine with the NPCs if they didn't have their honking noses and large chins (racist). Also, they look too much like a "Master Race" due to their folded arms and high heads...

Well, hopefully Notch sees the "outrage" and changes them a bit...
