Not an update description. I want to share what I’m working on now—a complete rethinking of questing. All the old quests were tied to delivering items to villagers. That’s, of course, very exciting, but there are plenty of issues: no storyline, no way to track progress (because everything boils down to a painfully dumb "find-and-bring" algorithm). Quests should be engaging, not repetitive. Otherwise, it’ll feel like grinding dailies in World of Warcraft—grind for the sake of more grind. In my opinion, this is a cancer killing Minecraft. Grinding has turned our beloved sandbox into building farms of every kind: XP farms, item farms, farms for EVERYTHING. Why play a game if you can just build a bunch of farms and go AFK?

Fixing this is my goal. I’m developing this plugin to bring back the joy of the game, first and foremost for myself. I’ve been playing Minecraft for over 12 years, and honestly, I can’t pinpoint why anymore—everything that could be built, I’ve built. Everything that could be completed, I’ve completed. Ignis is an attempt to breathe life into a static world that once felt infinite but now feels repetitive, with the same patterns everywhere. The new update should change everything. That’s why patches have been taking so long. Stay with Ignis, become part of something bigger.

And thanks to everyone for the support. The plugin on Polymart is becoming more and more successful, and I’m thrilled that people are willing to sponsor my enthusiasm. You are breathtaking!
