They claimed that it would confuse skyrim with mojangs game scrolls. Its not like they named it Scroll of the elders or something. I believe you can copyright a phrase like the elder scrolls series, but the words still can be used, just not if its blatantly copying it. But lawyers gonna be lawyers, eh?
How can you know they said that, for all we know Notch was exaggerating, like he does often.
Or even flat-out lying.
What Notch did (posting some information about that) is absolutely useless and dumb.
We cant know if its true, because he doesnt even think about going into detail. yet he decides it would be smart to blog it so people get mad at bethesda

why do you have three kind-of-negative options instead of one positive, one neutral, and one negative?

But thats exactly what I meant.
The combat is bad, I can live with that. But they keep tacking features on the bad combat, which makes it a real mess. The poor design choice here is that they decided to add things for combat, but not make the combat itself better. (hence cheap crackers with trufflesauce)
I do know what you mean though, the reason the combat is bad in the first place is because its poorly programmed, too.

Not entirely true.
Listening to the communitys feedback is great. I dont deny that.
But a professional game designer knows what hes doing, better than some people who just want tacked on features on an unstable game.

This right here. Design over at mojang is terrible. They added companions, but they dont even have AI with pathfinding yet. They added enchanting, but the combat is mediocre at best.
Its like eating cheap crackers with trufflesauce.
Take a look at the better than wolves mod. You may not like the features there, but you cant deny that this guy is a good designer.

Thats very true actually, I regret making that statement before.
Anyways, I hope this will happen one day. Just think of what minecraft could be.
