Posted by Donkeybollocks October 14, 2011 at 1:24 am. Report Abuse Definitely square. #1 rule of minecraft: There are no circles.  The square sun is iconic. The number of times in this game I've checked the sky to see where the sun is, to calculate how much time I have to seek shelter by night, the number of times I've spent staring at the square moon as it rose and fell waiting for the square sun to burn away the mobs. The celestial bodies, and the danger/safety they represent are cornerstones of the game. If they turn round, so be it, I won't stop playing. But if I wanted reality in my gaming I would be playing a different game. The entire push toward realism (pigs with 3D snouts, chests of slightly smaller size, etc.) is absolutely unnecessary. The retro pixelated look and feel of the game was iconic. Changes which undermine that undermine the immersive otherworld quality of the game. And on top of it all: there are hundreds of mods which add in realism for those who want it. I suppose soon I will be downloading a "classic Minecraft" mod just to retain the magic.  Why not just have an option in the menu? Obviously lots of people want two different things.  Posted by scoliosisboy October 14, 2011 at 1:23 am. Report Abuse just add a toggle in the options?  Posted by SQUARES4EVER October 14, 2011 at 1:23 am. Report Abuse Even though it's a pixely circle, it still looks like crap compared to the awesome squares. Thanks Notch for the awesome game, but this was a bad move.  Posted by elliobot October 14, 2011 at 1:22 am. Report Abuse You gotta keep the classics on notch! Viva la square!   SQUARE!! I mean, c'mon, the answer is obvious!  How did round win when square has almost 1000 more votes?  Posted by Harri in reply to Jeff October 14, 2011 at 1:24 am. Report Abuse It didn't win... 
I don't care because I don't find the the original textures to be anywhere near good. TEXTURE PACK, HOOOO!!!!!!!!!   Square ! Everything else is!!    See, if Round had won legit, people would have had to just take it. And if Notch hadn't put up this poll, and had just decided on Round from the get-go, people would have complained, but taken it. But asking your fanbase for an opinion, and then telling them that you don't care, and that you don't care what you promise, because you won't live up to it? That's low, man. And this is coming from someone who didn't mind if Round won at all. I mean, common sense just screams that something like that will be bad for PR, and Notch is normally VERY good about pleasing his fanbase. I'm confused. Maybe he's been drinking heavily?   Posted by Lukas in reply to Notch October 14, 2011 at 1:26 am. Report Abuse I don't know. Even if I wanted the circles, I would still think this was a dick move. 
Posted by Jay in reply to Notch October 14, 2011 at 1:24 am. Report Abuse Pretty much. Wouldn't have bothered me if round won legit, or if he just changed it because he wanted to, but putting up a poll and saying you'd do what as voted on then doing what you want anyways is like a big #### you. 
Posted by theEscape in reply to Notch October 14, 2011 at 1:23 am. Report Abuse It was pretty neck and neck. If it had been drastically against Round I trust Notch would have left it. 
Posted by situation in reply to Notch October 14, 2011 at 1:23 am. Report Abuse what's really low is that he automatically annoys 45% of his fanbase for not implementing a choice between the two
