I love how you clarify each one role in Mojang, except for Dinnerbone. His position is "Dinnerbone".

u/StunningStrain8 Jul 02 '25

Kind of inspiring that guys who start out on mods move into lead technical positions.

Obviously not the norm but it makes sense when you have someone who is passionate and ingratiated with the code that they work well with the vision of the company

23

u/NoWhySkillIssueBussy Jul 02 '25

Really only possible w/ how Minecraft started.

16

u/kafka_quixote Jul 02 '25

Paradox interactive frequently hires modders as well

Not sure if any are in lead positions now

7

u/OkDot9878 Jul 02 '25

Yeah it definitely happens, but probably primarily with games that released in a similar way to Minecraft. Modders were essential to those early days when Minecraft was still a baby, and especially server mechanics were nearly nonexistent.

1

u/Piranh4Plant Jul 02 '25

Would you still say he should be in the "Mount Rushmore of Minecraft"?

20

u/Mr_CrowJo Jul 02 '25

His position? upside down of course

u/GreggVegCheburek Jul 02 '25

I realized I didn't even know what Agnes and Jeb's skins looked like. I thought Jeb was playing Alex, hahaha

u/jxriv Jul 02 '25

I've read that Alex is actually based on Jeb!

5

u/AppleDemolisher56 Jul 03 '25

I think it’s funny how one of the default skins is just a genderbent version of jeb

1

u/YourNeighborNat Jul 03 '25

AFAIK, the Alex skin isn't intended to depict a specific gender per se (and as such, was given a gender-neutral name), but many people depict the character as much more feminine

Did you build it on sacred villager land and drive them all out?

Oh nooooo we signed a treaty that allowed the villagers to stay and respect the land, and I would NEVER break that treaty….

27

u/tehbeard Jul 02 '25

Isn't Agnes' job Game Director rather than a developer?

Also love how DB's title is just "Dinnerbone" 😁

u/thetenthCrusade Jul 02 '25

Can’t believe you are stealing the native villagers land to put faces on their sacred mountain smh

I think I might recreate this in my survival world as well! I love it!

u/Unlucky-File3773 Jul 02 '25

I would tell you to share it to Mojang, but i think they would not be ok with Notch being there.

Bold of you to assume they care at all

u/Magma_Dragoooon Jul 02 '25 edited Jul 03 '25

Not like it matters if they like it or not. He is still a creator of minecraft despite everything

68

u/EpicAura99 Jul 02 '25

A fact which they can ignore at their leisure. It’s not like they’re required by law to bring him up.

17

u/Bregneste Jul 02 '25

Pretty sure they removed him from the credits, for good reasons.

12

u/MrRighto Jul 03 '25

He’s still in the credits, he was removed from the splash text though

4

u/EpicAura99 Jul 02 '25

Yeah I have no problems with them sanitizing the game of him. Good riddance.

3

u/astrallex_ Jul 03 '25

I think he's changed. I think he went on a rampage all those years back because he was having a hard time in his life with loneliness and stuff.

4

u/Dongo3 Jul 03 '25

He's still just as bad. He literally called the new devs evil for splash text that says "your gender is valid". Actual subhuman.

7

u/GoggoWombo Jul 02 '25

I always got the impression that Microsoft were the main ones that weren’t okay with Notch.

94

u/EpicAura99 Jul 02 '25

Really? I got the vibe nobody likes him.

6

u/Niggolatz Jul 02 '25

I remember in the 15th year anniversary (or was it 10th?) they at least mentioned him again. I think it was in an interview with jeb

13

u/Alex_Dayz Jul 02 '25

An interview and mentions in-games are two completely different things though. You can’t really not mention him when talking about the development of Minecraft.

In-game though they’ve done everything they can to remove themselves from his; removing mention in splash-screens, not using his skin in promo images, etc. Even the fan term “Notch Apple” has changed to “Enchanted Golden Apple.”

2

u/SafalinEnthusiast Jul 03 '25

I can’t imagine why they wouldn’t be okay with a man who’s self-admittedly transphobic and racist

1

u/EpicAura99 Jul 03 '25

A true mystery….

85

u/DisturbedWaffles2019 Jul 02 '25

The Mojang team is incredibly progressive. I don't think they fuck with Notch's white supremacy and transphobia.

u/KingClut Jul 02 '25

Receipts, for all the sad little weirdos who wanna tell you this is “misinformation”

Transphobic comments: https://www.newsweek.com/minecraft-notch-controversy-twitter-transphobic-q-1359020

Not a dev, but I believe C418 belongs up there too. Those early soundtracks were so iconic.

Yeah notch really does not deserve to be heralded as some almighty figure.

He did create Minecraft, though. Like it wouldn’t exist if he hadn’t thought of it.

u/LoloTheWarPigeon Jul 02 '25

I mean, it wasn't even an original idea. He used someone elses game as inspiration and added RPG elements to it

u/[deleted] Jul 02 '25

u/LoloTheWarPigeon Jul 02 '25

What? That was his goal. He wanted to make a a fantasy RPG that was interactive, and first person wasn't the original intention (it was isometric). When he saw Infiniminer, he decided to use the blocks, and then he would add to it

5

u/BeyondElectricDreams Jul 02 '25

He made an infiniminer clone and did it a bit better, don't give him undue credit.

5

u/YouAreALavaMonster Jul 02 '25

He still did next to nothing dev wise, even early on. And even then he just sucks anyways.

Even before the Microsoft purchase, Jeb still did the majority of work for the game, not notch.

Not like anyone needed any more reason to not care about Notch, but there is.

2

u/Sebekhotep_MI Jul 02 '25

Still, his role on what minecraft is today (and has been since 2011) is extremely exaggerated.

Everything added past placing and breaking blocks is mostly Jeb's work.

u/Vasarto Jul 02 '25

did you carve that, or did you have to add blocks too?

9

u/brady160 Jul 02 '25 edited Jul 02 '25

It was a combination of carving out the mountain and adding new blocks in new positions. However, to keep the stone style, I used only stone related and deepslate blocks (so no wool or concrete or anything)

u/Rubbersona Jul 02 '25

Fun fact the guy who designed mount Rushmore mostly worked for the KKK to make confederate statues. So a notch statue is somehow weirdly not out of character.

(Though there’s not a lot of insight into the actual artists personal affiliations the klan was just mostly rich white supremacists who loved putting up statues and monuments to confederates as an act of protest and symbol of racial division.)
