    3. IDK, Ivor kind of wanted to kill the wither when it was underdeveloped, so he'd have no proof it could've gotten that powerful. Could this mean his command block was also coded to be weak to the potion? But the potion was obviously not a normal potion either, so is it also possible the potion was a command block neutralizer?

    6. Interesting. So then it is possible it is like the way an ordinary wither tints the sky only it actually is intense enough to change light levels.

    1.8 version. 1.7 should work, but some features will break.

    who?

    The wither storm or Ivor? I don't consider Ivor a villain quite yet, but he is annoying.

    OT: I enjoyed it, but the annoying thing is that my brothers play it, so I can't fill up the save slots, so I have to use my personal one to replay. But chances are, you don't have that problem, so yes, I would say it's worth it.



    1. Ivor. He is a bit of a wreck. He triggered the main conflict (witherstorm) and refuses to help the player thinking he can still be the hero and destroy the storm himself. Did I mention he cheats the player out of a trade? In the nether, he refuses to follow the players and guide them. When the player confronts him, he does not even explain why he thinks the super tnt will fail. He simply faults the player over and over again despite being the one at fault. Now, the order isn't much better either. They had some teamwork issues. Clearly, they all didn't like Ivor. Of course, what they did was not right. But what Ivor did was become ansorbed by his revenge and selfishness to be called a "hero", and so he misses the point of the word and puts the world in danger which is very antagonistic. He was justified, yes. But his justification is flawed. I believe he will redeem himself, but it may be optional.

    2. Does your brother really use 3 save files?!


    3. The OP should change the title because it is at most 25$

    Absolutely beautiful. You did a marvelous job. I can't tell what part is my favorite, the name "treadiquette" or "IDK TL;DR 4life man."


    XD
    Thanks.
    Well, my favorite line (legit) was "religions are moral guidelines, not encyclopedias. Or factions for that matter."
    But that would require another thread. And since the forums do not want religious posts for obvious reasons I'm afraid expressing my views on theology as a whole and the wonderful contributions many religions make to ethicallity cannot warrent a thread.

    BTW, not to you but for everyone reading this thread:
    I hope all of you understood the sarcastic tone mixing in with the serious issues being addressed. It is definitely 100% serious as all of this I believe to be true, but there still is a level of satire and a deep level of understanding required to get it plus the simplistic face value which can apply to the general audience.

    Wow, I barely understand my own writing sometimes. xD
    Anyways, hope you enjoyed the thread.

    Quote from CmdrNight»

    Sorry if this is the wrong place for this, but it seemed like the right place. My 6 year old nephew LOVES minecraft, and story mode as well, and its been entertaining watching him play story mode on my PS4, but hes been asking me now if there is any way to make regular minecraft like story mode? Mostly townspeople and skins of the cast and like, perhaps even the graphical style.


    Admittedly, that does sound fun, so im curious if anyone knows if there are any mods out there to make Minecraft more like story mode?




    Yes. There are 2 ways.
    Method 1: Millenaire mod - adds player like NPCs and villages which grow as you trade and such

    Method 2: I'm making a map using characters and locations from story mode: http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/mapping-and-modding/maps/wip-maps/2543936-minecraft-story-mode-recreation
    Just download the map, custom npcs mod, and maybe even shaders and you got yourself a Minecraft and MC Story Mode hybrid.

    Witherstorm Evolutionary Stages (for those interested)


    Birth Stage:



    The Witherstorm in this stage resembles a regular Wither, and has it's ability to fire Wither Skulls. The only visible differences is it doesn't explode the stage when created, the skulls it shoots have flames trailing behind them, and the obvious command block in it's rib cage. It has the ability to attract single blocks to it, to create it's "body". Once it begins to attract blocks and they begin to form the armor, it moves to the next stage. It will follow the commands of it's creator to attack, and cease it, although once the Witherstorm enters the Cycloptic Stage, it will ignore these commands.



    Humpback Stage:



    Named after it's armor's appearance, this stage's armor has completely covered the back, and the necks of the three heads. It still seems to follow commands, and cannot be attacked with typical melee attacks. The tail and the rib cage (and it's command block cargo) remain exposed, along with the front's of it's typical heads. The Witherstorm is able to pull two blocks, and multiple banners from the walls at once. The later parts of this stage can lift largish clumps of 3 to 5 blocks.


    Cycloptic Stage:


    Early Cycloptic Stage


    This stage's armor has covered the center skull to the point that it has formed a head with teeth-filled jaws and one glowing purple eye. It's ribs and it's side heads remain covered, and it's tail has been covered, with 3 pixel sized extensions hanging from the bottom of it. It will quickly cover it's command block core at this point, rendering the Fancy Potion useless, and leaving only the two side heads barely exposed. As this stage continues to grow, the creature gains the ability to lift humans with a purple eyebeam from it's head, and the bottom extensions has grown into a group of small immobile tentacles. At the end of this stage, it will have covered it's bottom half with a half oval shape, and have grown a mobile tentacle from it's side, and can lift entire chunks of flooring, and will have covered all but it's upper front in armor, the rest being covered in a partial sphere.


    Reorganization Stage:


    This stage is unwitnessed, but is a transition from the partial sphere and one small headed Witherstorm to the heart shaped 3 large headed stage. This stage has the other two skulls transformed into heads, and have all three grow significantly with the rest of it's body, which grows multiple tentacles.


    Destroyer Stage:



    This is the stage the Witherstorm is in when it destroys Endercon, and where it spends the rest of Episode 1 in. This stage can use it's eyebeams to lift large portions of buildings and other structures and groups of people into the air, and fires large, explosive heads that set every block of large trees on fire, and have the explosion strength of a charged creeper. It also has the ability to use it's tentacles that have grown to hundreds of blocks in length to grab humans, break portions of buildings (and portals) and block peoples paths.


    Devourer Stage:



    This is the stage in which the Witherstorm is in when it attacks Boom Town/Redstonia (depending on your choice in the story), and ends Episode 2 in this stage. While it's heads have not grown in size (proportionally), it's body has grown to massive proportions, and it's bottom tentacles have grown to the average size of the Destroyer's tentacles, and it's larger set have grown massively to the point of being twice as high as it's body. The result is a octopus-like body plan. It is able to lift the top half of Ellegard's lab and break apart in a few seconds, and significantly darkens the sky in it's presence (although this effect occurs when the Witherstorm can be seen in the distance in it's Destroyer Stage at the last few minutes of Episode 1).


    We will learn about more stages and the Witherstorm once the other 3 episodes are released.


    Thank you so much! I couldn't find any screenshots for these before.
    1. They added a useless potion to the latest snapshot. Witherstorm Confirmed?!
    2. As much as I would love to start speculating why the storm commonly places the blocks on its back and what the command is, I can only do so after more episodes are released.
    3. Why didn't Ivor just make a normal wither? He could've still easily proven the same point....
    4. What is the intention of the storm's mass destruction? (Probably the same general malice of souls which form a normal wither)
    5. Based on the dialogue it would seem the storm only appears in the town the player visits. Is it drawn to the amulet?
    6. The sky darkens, yes. But as proven by the choice of sleeping the night, it also spawns night mobs, meaning it turns its perimeter to nighttime. Given the gravity beams....The command block must have some kind of influence on spacetime as a whole.
    7. Yeah, that's all....

    What if someone made a movie on each of all the theroris? Minecraft movie?


    They are already making a minecraft movie: http://www.minecraftforum.net/news/8185-minecraft-movie

    Although it is unlikely it will be an origin story, the movie may contribute some valuable insights into the origins of MC.

    Making a movie for these theories with something like blender should be possible, but I lack the skillset necessary.

    I think a very basic way to explain command blocks is they rewrite the laws of physics and alter the code of the universe. But their composition doesn't correlate to theur ability. I have to look into that.


    And yes, @grockstar, witherstorms in vanilla would be fun. But if some griefer gets the materials to make one it's bye bye world.
