Vote to bring this game to GOG and help preserve it.504
I don't see this becoming very likely (that it would be released on here) but I'd love if GOG could preserve the original Minecraft, it's Java version. The one that built minecraft, the one that I grew to love. Bedrock is so much more locked down and we all totally remember when they were trying to move us all to Bedrock to force us to play a more in-game purchases model and mod-free model. The current owners always seemed to dislike the communities ability to add mods, yet they themselves seem to have added updates that feel a lot more like bloated mods than official updates. My favourite versions of minecraft were released before the aquatic update, specifically version 1.11.1. I miss the days before it go super popular. Before the current devs of the game wanted to get rid of allowing us to officially play any update we want, to force us to play the newest version (which I dislike by the way and don't wish to play). If GOG preserved the original Minecraft and heritage versions of the game, I would be ecstatic and massively relieved knowing the current devs couldn't just take it away from us like they have tried to do many times now. I don't love where they have taken the game and have attempted to give feedback for updates but they seem to ignore all but a small part of the community. Reminds me of how the Runescape community had to fight to get Old skool runescape back.... I love how we can add or remove mods or play vanilla or play any official version we want, that's a lot of what the Minecraft community was originally built on and it's a shame to see it shunned and tossed aside for the most part by many of the modern day devs. It's sad to see mechanics being updated and broken, in my opinion. It would be such a relief to have permanent access to the game I have so many fond memories of, playing with a couple of friends in before the devs purge Minecraft Java permanently. Bedrock is okay but I much prefer the Java version, the one that started it all.
FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival.
Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed.
The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo.
As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity.
Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.Our Pick Top Trending Science fiction Sandbox
