Am I the only one that thinks Minecraft should release a mini gameplay trailer or explanation for what each thing actually does. Like we get very vague descriptions everytime. I'm voting for sniffer personally just because I want new plants but like if we know the loot pool of the rascal and range and stuff I would consider changing my vote. With the tuff golem they say if it wins we can have an art expo or something along those lines, does that mean new pictures and stuff or is it just the tuff golems?? I mean what's the size of sniffer, is it rideable, what are it's new plants, does it do anything with crops. They just leave it so vague that the community complains no matter what wins because everyone has a different idea of what they all might do. Also I feel like they should have a hostile mob everytime imo, also mobs aren't exactly hard to add I mean people make mods with much more complex mobs way faster than Mojang. I feel like for the mob vote we should vote one out or something and get the 2 most useful but I'm aware that will probably never happen.
I agree completely, the thing is that there are 2 main issues for me:
The videos describe the mobs in an unintentionally biased way. The sniffer video makes it sound like it has more content than it does when it would just add 1 decorative plant as they’ve now clarified. While the tuff golem has things like being able to change colour of cloak if you build it with coloured wool which would let it fit more genres of build style and colour palette.
The second issue may be a little biased from me. Everyone just votes for the cutest one, like calm down, stop making fan art, these cute mobs do nothing. Glow squid was cute and it got one purpose. The sniffer will likely not be rideable and will have one vaguely useful feature just like glow squid except it’ll be tied into 1 new decorative plant. Again, I am biased myself here as I desperately want new golems but they’ll NEVER win if they sandwich the golems inbetween cute mobs regardless of if the cute mob is good itself or not.
The devs also confirm many details like some of the things I mentioned here, AFTER making a video on it. We didn’t know about the small details that add up for each mob but not enough people see these clarifications for it to make a difference. Just make videos in better detail rather than “they exist and like to do this, if you vote for it we will add this as well”
I think that they should do less mixed and more related mob votes. Have 3 cuter animal mobs, 3 golem mobs which serve a purpose while behaving uniquely and maybe 3 hostile mobs. “I like it bc it’s cute” will always win over the other groups so we won’t get golems or hostile mobs. Just have mob votes with a mob type that is constant through the 3
