    I got about 4 minutes into the You-Tube thing, right up to the point where the elf/piskey thing started playing the flute affair.

    After he flipped his middle finger a couple of times, I did exactly the same & came to post here....




    Surely the time spent developing this would have been better spent crunching numbers for SETI or something.....

    I disagree actually. While I might not particularly like it, I have also no doubt that it's impressive and I'm quite convinced they learned a lot while doing it too.

    If you have no liking for it, how can you make a statement having no doubt that it is impressive? - Hopefully, they learned to code something different from this potential flop-fest.

    Flipped off indeed!

    I can acknowledge that, while it's not to my taste, it takes skill to do and is not something I could do myself.

    I'm sure there's many examples. Take opera, just doesn't appeal to me at all but the talent and skill, the training required to control a voice like that, incredibly impressive.

    Completely agree too....

    This isn't a genre of platform flame, it's directed purely @ Minecraft for RTX Graphics.... Another waste of time.

    Blocky Graphics when you need an nVidia graphics card & a bloody expensive one at that, in order to run it whilst it looks sh!t?
    Meanwhile, nVidia are releasing things like DLSS to increase FPS & maintain Anti-Aliasing & Anisotropic detail along with cinematic qualities & someone decides to code Minecraft for very expensive RTX graphics cards.


    Just my feelings J T, as they were about Ocarina of Time. I didn't like it.

    I can't really talk about the specs or requirements as I don't really know much about that, but I do think Minecraft has quite a neat art style and direction, it's certainly got some charm (the 'less can be more' thing I mentioned earlier).

    Minecraft with next gen graphical effects does look quite cool. Especially if you have built a world and then view it with the RT lighting and particle effects.

    But that does kind of defeat the whole point of the game being just a building block game really. What I great about Minecraft these days is that it has fairly low level system requirements for most systems these days. I can load it up on PC or Playstation, or if somewhere else can run it on a tablet or my phone. Great accessibility.

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!
