At least Minecraft is generally additive as opposed to mucking up the previously working mechanics.

(This of course is excluding things like the big “Flattening” of data structures that happened around 1.13 or so)

The post-Microsoft meta is that glitches are valid game mechanics. TNT duping has been in the game longer than Notch controlled the game. But some other glitches get fixed.

  • This goes for most games where glitches end up becoming protected features. Being fun is more important than being correct.

    • How do you measure fun? People will always rush to that excuse if it's not properly defined. And not everyone finds the same things fun. Especially if you are looking to try and 10x your audience.
