Notch to Indie Game Developers: "Don't Listen to Advice"

GP Editor, Jason Clement writes, "If anyone has good advice to spare when it comes to making a successful game, it's Markus 'Notch' Persson, the brains behind Mahjong's incredibly successful indie title, Minecraft. So what's the greatest advice Notch can give to a budding developer?"

And that's why basically every recent valve game is innovative.
Hope notch and his team get as big as valve someday...

Swiggins4601d ago

If Mojang becomes as big as valve, I will make it my life's ambition to somehow work for them.

*raises a glass* Here's to Notch!

Except valve's games are not overrated.

Ok I've taken his advice and now I will not listen to It XD joking but yes well said this guy actually seems like a pretty stand up guy its not getting to his head like the angry bird devs or anything I wish there was more like him

Semir4601d ago

How did they manage to spell Mojang Mahjong ?

SixZeroFour4601d ago

they were creating the article using an iphone and autocorrect did its magic?

GamePodunk4601d ago

Nice catch! I must've been thinking about the Chinese game, Mahjong, when writing this up. In any case, it's corrected on the main article. :/

Minecraft, Who Did it Better: Notch or Microsoft?

Who did it better: Notch or Microsoft? Microsoft can push Minecraft to a whole new level that Notch might not have been able to achieve. But does that mean the game is getting better or not?

Notch by a mile. The Super Duper Graphics Pack was a joke to promote the launch of Xbox One X.

The bedrock edition is a mess and the Switch version has issues. The game has gone nowhere. We should’ve had Minecraft 2 by now.

Mystogan1895d ago (Edited 1895d ago )

Bullshit. The game has made great strides thanks to Microsoft. Especially in the education segment. Sure there are some things that you can nitpick like the Graphics Pack being delayed. But besides that I can't see the game being better than it is now if they never sold to Microsoft.

Also Minecraft 2 is never gonna happen. There is no point.
