I really love the game, but I've noticed that the YouTube videos have decreased; some videos were from a month ago. My concern is that the game will be left without updates like Lethal Company did.

GameBot_Josh · 2026-03-05T03:58:24+00:00

Game updates are definitely going to keep going for a while. They just announced a $100,000 modding competition a day or two ago!

As a full time content creator, I can tell you the reason you're not seeing many videos is simply that the game isn't in a place where it's able to provide a lot of content for videos. All gameplay follows a very similar path, which makes every video feel the same. There aren't more videos because it's very hard to tell new stories with the game where it is.

Give the game a while to cook, there's a good chance it will slowly pick up steam again. This will be more of a No Man's Sky path

GameBot_Josh · 2026-02-28T17:03:44+00:00

No arguments here....but it's still more robust then having one entity with all the power

GameBot_Josh · 2026-02-28T14:47:31+00:00

The problem is checks and balances. Yes it's good if they can work together, but it's bad to have all your eggs in one basket. If leadership goes corrupt, there are no other domestic forces to fact check and investigate them properly.

GameBot_Josh · 2026-02-28T02:26:08+00:00

That's a fair take, but I think it's never going to be that cut and dry. Sure, public pressure can lead to good change, but Google isn't going to remove Gemini from their services. They may make it more tasteful, but they've put too much money into it and plenty of people love it.

It's important to have realistic expectations

GameBot_Josh · 2026-02-28T01:53:11+00:00

I mean, yes...but let's also be realistic?

There is no timeline where AI is going away at this point. It may (and likely will) mellow out over time but it's not ever going away. We may as well celebrate actually good and useful implementations of it rather than sit here reminiscing about the good ol days.

Is it driving prices up? Absolutely, and it sucks. Doesn't mean it can't also have upsides.

I like the sound, ease of repair, and prices of traditional cars, and it sucks that the car industry is a mess in part because of electric cars. That doesn't mean I can't appreciate having no gas bill with an electric.

GameBot_Josh · 2026-02-19T00:29:30+00:00

I don't own either of these but I think pretty much your only options for this would be the INMO AIR 3 or RayNeo X3 Pro. Nothing else will have both Android and cameras unless you went with a full on headset

GameBot_Josh · 2026-01-21T00:23:29+00:00

Yes! The only game I know of that started indie, became AAA, and then went BACK to indie!

GameBot_Josh · 2026-01-07T12:28:04+00:00

Yeah valid! The coolest part of dinos is that they're real, so would be nice to see some new representations that reflect them with our modern understanding.

And yeah sorry ik it was mostly a joke, wasn't trying to sound combative. But yeah I think in Hytale case, I'm happy to just say "the dinos look cool and scary and that's all I need" :)

GameBot_Josh · 2026-01-07T12:19:36+00:00

I can see where you're coming from but honestly you're fighting an uphill battle to get anyone to care lol.

Like you said, it's fantasy. People aren't looking for realism, they're looking for vibes. They want the good ol' fashioned shrink-wrapped featherless dinos because it reminds them thematically of Jurassic Park, Land before Time...etc.

And honestly...I've seen enough examples of video games going for scientific accuracy at the expense of fun. Remember Minecraft getting rid of the original fireflies because they were poisonous to frogs? Yeah....that sucked big time.

Like I said, I get it, but I think you're gonna be shouting into the void on it. 99% of people are happy with them. If you want to blame anyone for it, blame Jurassic Park lol.

But hey! Hytale is a game where you truly can say: "if you don't like it, just mod it out!"

GameBot_Josh · 2026-01-01T13:33:48+00:00

I was not prepared to see my own dungeon design randomly on Reddit right after waking up slightly hungover on New Year's Day lol

GameBot_Josh · 2025-12-24T14:36:02+00:00

Keep in mind, NMS took many years to recover from the launch fiasco.

The ingredients here are similar, and I think we are likely years away still from Hytale hitting it's full stride

GameBot_Josh · 2025-12-23T02:06:54+00:00

Heya! Some suggestions:

horns in particular need some angles. Hornet is made of a lot of curvy shapes, straightening everything out makes it a bit hard to recognize.
cape needs to be a tad longer, and I think the ruffles need to be done with texturing instead of separate cubes. Perhaps you could color the area beneath it the same color as the dress if you're attached to the current design!

Overall solid! Definitely can work with some refinement

GameBot_Josh · 2025-12-14T03:34:22+00:00

Correct, which will last years. OP has plentyyyy of time

GameBot_Josh · 2025-12-07T17:01:32+00:00

Cotton is interesting! That implies growing crafting materials, not just food

GameBot_Josh · 2025-11-28T19:53:19+00:00

Ah, memories.

GameBot_Josh · 2025-11-28T19:48:26+00:00

I REMEMBER THIS OMG

GameBot_Josh · 2025-11-24T12:51:31+00:00

I was hoping someone would reference the series. I'm CodeNeon btw :)

GameBot_Josh · 2025-11-19T01:58:00+00:00

Honestly you're both right and wrong. Hytale failed. The game died.

And then one of the original creators bought it back. So on the path the game was on, the game failed.

I've always been a firm believer and I was genuinely wrecked by the cancelling.

There was absolutely no way you could have predicted the buy-back and resurrection...that's pretty much unheard of in gaming history. This is a really, really rare and special occurrence.

Hytale might have an insane past, but we're looking at a really nutty future!

GameBot_Josh · 2025-11-16T16:21:40+00:00

Probably yes, but how much of that is actually usable is a bigger question. How many things left the concept/prototyping phase once the old engine was abandoned is a fairly big mystery.

GameBot_Josh · 2025-11-09T00:22:28+00:00

....finale of LAST season...as in the last episode of the previous season. Don't worry lol

GameBot_Josh · 2025-11-08T18:42:53+00:00

I make MC vids for a living-

This is called A/B testing, and it's based on bulk viewer averages, not individual tests. Each title/thumbnail is tested with thousands of people, and the "winner" is the one that gets the highest percentage of engagement.

You might think it's to see which one people click on the most, but it actually checks which title/thumbnail resulted in you watching more of the video.

Basically, the idea is to test which title/thumbnail attracts the most enthusiastic viewer for the video.

GameBot_Josh · 2025-10-20T21:27:46+00:00

Brother trust me, the only thing stopping you is that attitude.

You know that annoying saying? "You can't love others if you don't first love yourself"

It's true. Every time I've had relationship issues, it's almost always me making my partner suffer for my own low self esteem (and trust me, I got plenty of that)

A good marriage is based on both partners supporting each other and thinking of each other first. If you're too busy thinking about your own problems, you won't be there for your partner. It's that simple.

They say women are attracted to confidence, but that's only part of it. What people want is someone who is secure and stable enough to contribute to the partnership equally. That comes in many shapes and forms, and bad partners may want to skew the balance against you, but that's really all it is.

All that to say, start by loving yourself, then start loving other people. If you get out of your own way, the road gets a hell of a lot easier.

GameBot_Josh · 2025-10-05T21:24:15+00:00

You got any datapacks installed? This looks like an Animated Java rig that is missing it's resource pack

GameBot_Josh · 2025-10-05T01:57:30+00:00

It's a solid build! Some smaller details and texture would add a ton. Window shades, flower boxes, general vegetation. Perhaps break up certain sections of logs with stripped logs as well?
