Speaking of flowers, 2019 also brought the bees into the game! In a completely different update (this time with an alliterative title instead of a rhyming one which is fine), these pretty pollinators flew into the game and our hearts. Since then, the amount of bee stings accrued by Mojang employees has quadrupled and resulted in a mandatory apiary suit dress code for the office. The number was alarmingly high before this update, so it’s probably for the best.
My favorite part of this update has to be the honeycomb blocks. I often find that I have a hard time relating to most of the blocks in Minecraft. Sure, sand is pretty great and I guess obsidian serves a purpose. But none of them feel familiar or have that je ne sais quoi that appeals to me, specifically. But now I have finally discovered that the umami element I had been missing was a block that was sticky to the touch. I look forward to a new decade where we can all embrace our true selves, our future builds, and each other without recoiling!
And who am I? That’s one secret I’ll never tell.
Actually, I will! But only because Per is making me. As you might have gleaned from the title of this article, this new decade brings a brand new writer to Minecraft.net. I tried to pepper this text with a few facts about me, but one thing that might surprise you is that I am an avid oversharer! I look forward to giving you way too much information about what I ate for lunch and occasionally some stuff about Minecraft. Happy new year! I hate ferns!
