Interesting. I'll have to check it out later. Also, there's apparently now glass pillars above strongholds that Jeb accidentally left in from testing.

yes the debug pillars are in the post...

Oops. Didn't even see that. Derp.

Notch is making dragons and linked a picture.
Models stuff for dragons
Texture stuff for dragons
The picture!
Sorry vall, but dragons can not wait!

So there now appears to be an Ender World.

Lord, get cracking on that new CUT HQ.

So... apparently now there are dragons, an Ender dimension, and Ender Dragons. Yeah...

*whimper*

Now that would be an interesting one to attempt. This time, the void.

BANG! update!

I'm curious how enchantments will affect the server economy. I can certainly see potions/ingredients being traded frequently.

I'm already not looking forward to assessing and adding all these items to the trade calc... -_-

Yeah, enchantment sounds like it will be loads of fun, although I do hope the make arrows enchantable. Also...

Dat toilet!

THIS IS THE END
BEAUTIFUL FRIEND

MY ONLY FRIEND, THE END

So.. cool..

Edit: Notch further trolled Bethesda by adding "The Elder Scrolls" as one of the enchantments in the enchanting table (of course, in Standard Galactic).

Aha! That's great. He's gonna get sued like crazy though.

Dragons have been something that notch has been wanting to add for a long while now... if you ever read the Upcoming features on the MCWiki (And I did way before Skyrim was even announced) then you would have seen he had this planned for a long time.

(Dragons - Notch hinted during the Spider-Jockey update that he will add Dragons to the game.
Spider Jockey was added in Alpha 1.0.17 which was back in August 20, 2010)

This is damn brilliant

From what I've read, their case is still a sitting duck. Neither side wants to make a move in fear of the other retaliating too strongly.

Should have gone with the Quake 3 solution.
