In this episode, Foxy and Slack discuss the Mob Vote including how terrible it is for the community and how much of a negative impact it must have on the actual developers at Mojang. They also discuss how Modded Minecraft is setting such a high bar for the Vanilla game, and realistically, in 10 years, Minecraft really hasn't progressed much.
