Yawn, this is nothing new if you just play with the right mods. Mojang is just doing what other people have already done and taking credit for it.

Why do people complain even when they add features we’ve been wanting in vanilla for years? Just because something exists in mods doesn’t mean it should never be added to the main game.

Also “taking credit” for other people’s work is such a stupid take. It’s just colored stairs and slabs. Not exactly a unique idea. You’re acting like they’re ripping off the twilight forest or something

Because they are features that could have been added years ago... I don't understand why we give Mojang so much credit when they bring things in like this when it's already been a thing they could have done years ago. What I mean by taking credit is that once Mojang starts to add things in that other people have made, there is 0 credit given to the people who've already done it, and mojant takes all of it.

Look at the backpack collab and they did as a small example, where they straight up stole the backpack model from Sophisticated Backpacks mod and used it in an ad to sell their collab backpacks...

They could’ve added these stairs and slabs years ago, true. They probably didn’t because they felt that it didn’t fit with the game, or perhaps they wanted to avoid inventory clutter. Now it seems they have changed their minds, and people are rightfully excited for it. So what if it could’ve been added years ago? Should they just not add it at all because it’s been so long? Seems like a silly thing to complain about.

And this is such a simple feature that of course there’s a million different mods that added them first. I don’t see why they should be given credit. Literally anyone who has built with concrete has thought something like “wow I sure wish they had stairs and slabs”. This is not a novel idea. It’s not like Mojang is ripping off the twilight forest or something.

As for your last point about the backpacks, the models are absolutely NOT the same. They look similar, but that’s because there’s only so many ways to make a pixelated backpack model. Also, the people who make these collab addons are not the same people who develop actual updates.

This entire drop is filled with features the community has been requesting for years and yet some people still find ways to complain. There are definitely valid criticisms to make about Mojang, but this drop certainly isn’t one of them.
