Back in the "Beta Days" when dealing with the countless bugs the general excuse was "...its just a beta bro." Now Minecraft is officially released and I can't believe how buggy it is. I know that ALL games have bugs and many have a day one patch but this is much worse than I ever expected. Many of the bugs are actually pre-existing ones!
None of us truly know whats goes on at Mojang studios behind the scenes but overall I would say that it seems like a company that needs to start taking things a little more seriously.
I still enjoy Minecraft a lot and I know these bugs will eventually get fixed but come-on Mojang (specifically Notch), try to get your ducks in a row.
