I feel Mojang has been stingy with the way they've implemented capes into Minecraft. I see what potentially could've been a unique way for people to express themselves as a player now as an accidental means to tear the community apart. I get that Minecon is supposed to be special but what about the people that live too far away, or don't have the money to go, or are too you to go? Why should capes be rare on the basis that they could only be obtained by people who just coincidentally had the convenience of going to Minecon when half the time the parents that take their children there don't care enough about their cape codes to even redeem them. I feel like capes should be something that every player has the opportunity to obtain through a cape editor so no one is excluded and saying otherwise just seems like an attempt to justify the exclusion of people. No, they're not less special on the basis that they're less rare. Capes shouldn't be valued on the basis that more people are excluded from having one, but rather the design of it and the player that wears it.
i half agree with this. certain capes should have higher values such as minecon capes. but obviously something like optifine capes implimented in vanilla would be sick. but i think optifine capes work alright due to nearly everyone using it. on bedrock edition there are capes you can buy. if you migrate your account you get a free cape, there aren't any real "exclusions" they were originally intended to be shown as huge support for the game, such as giving ideas used in the game or attending minecon.
