    We all knew it was going to sometime arrive, and it seems now is that time. Mojang has recently updated the Minecraft launcher that we all know and love to a much, cleaner version. Pictures are listed above.

    I just want to hear your guys feedback, even though I am almost positively sure this community is not happy about it. Here's my opinion, though:
    That's about all I got to say, and as I stated earlier I am looking forward to your replies about the topic.
    Have a great day everyone. :)

    I like how I can change my skin without having to go to the website now.

    Really long to goto options, change the launcher options then go back. Probably because i'm not used to it.

    For some reason, I got this launcher before a lot of people..
    I thought we all got it at the same time but after asking around nobody else had it..
    Wonder why
    Though overall I personally like the old one better, as it was much simpler and were laid out in front of you.

    It's really annoying... for some reason, I guess they keep updating it or something and now it won't even launch on my laptop so I'm using a desktop computer. It just stays loading so I'm not sure.

    Honestly, I think the new launcher is cleaner and better, since it has more options to it. But at the same time I miss the old launcher that has been around for so long.
    Also, ever since the new update, I'm unable to start up my Minecraft like 6/10 times. Which means I have to restart my whole computer every time it occurs. >.>

    Anyone has an explanation why this keeps on happening?

    Launcher works fine for me. Clean but complex. No issues or glitches have happened since I have been issued the new launcher.


    Overall I think it's a pretty decent launcher, but at the same time the old launcher was around for so long that I miss it now.

    I like how you can change your skin without going onto minecraft.net, It's very convenient. But I don't really like the design tbh, I prefer the old minecraft launcher design.

    Its such a crappy launcher. Microsoft thinks they have to update something that does not need to be updated and do it anyways thinking they will make it better when it just makes it worse.

    From what ive heard, Microsoft had nothing to do with the Development of the new launcher, Dinnerbone and the PC/Java dev team made it themselves. Microsoft actually doesnt have a say in what goes into the Java version of Minecraft, Jeb and them are allowed to develop that one as they please.

    The new launcher actually has some new features that i felt to be a whole lot simpler than they used to be, like changing your skin in the Launcher without having to go to Minecrafts website, as well as managing multiple clients for different versions of the game. Its not as complicated as it was before.

    This is just how i feel about this whole thing, you dont have to agree with me if you dont want to :P

    Well I like the skin, but the mc itself, it just won't load up and keeps crashing.

    I feel that might be a bug, I heard that you could report that type of stuff to Mojang but im not sure. You could most definitely try though :P

    I use a launcher called SquidHQ which is exempt from updates. This seems to work (since the new launcher doesn't).

    I actually like the new launcher better than the old one.
