[readmore]
Seen here is a screenshot of a new monster in the works for 1.8. While Notch didn't specify exactly what it was, it seems fairly apparent that this new arrival in Minecraft isn't especially friendly-looking. What is it? What can it do? We will keep you updated as this information becomes available!
Update - Thanks to Nyanners and KSMF, respectively, for the following two enhanced images!
Slendermen.
Slendermen.
Slendermen.
ALSO.
IT'S A FRIGGIN' GIANT MUSHROOM.
And Notch needs to add floating islands and grappling hooks/rocket boots before adding this mob.
I hope they can build. They look smart, and they are holding blocks.
They don't look friendly, though. And Notch called them "kind of creepy".
My theory anyways.
ANOTHER reason why i dont go outside....And no more throwing away almost broken tools O.o
That is terrifying.
Obviously supposed to be Slenderman, which is bad, because I am terrified of him.
I'll just, not update the game.
Ever.
Notch posted this on his twitter 3 hours ago. Seems like it's about the new mob.
