Kill a few Minecraft dogs in front of him, then whisper “you’re next if you don’t pipe down” at him.

Likely, he’s been rewarded with attention when he howls while someone is using a computer. Reconditioning the antisocial behavior entails rewarding him for the social behavior you prefer.
This is the real answer
He’s a beagle, so he’s stubborn and not willing to negotiate
@LaunchesKayaks it's probably a seating issue.
Omg yes. I'd need one with a dog chair on each side though so both of my dogs can sit with me lol
So basically you need to start playing minecraft on a 3 seater sofa, surrounded by dog treats.
Well have you tried offering him a turn? You've been hogging the controller, let him try.
He probably wants his own account and a computer to play on...
Try telling him this: Woof! Woof woof! Bark woof grrrrr woof! Bark bark rrrrrrrr bark raa raa raa woof.
woof.
When I said that to my dog, she just repeated it back at me, but with this mocking, high pitched tone... not gonna lie, my feelings were hurt.
You've wrongly linked the behaviour with an action. Beagles yell regardless of what you do if you're not paying them attention.
You can't. Play Terraria instead.
My dog absolutely hates certain noises. Anything excessively high pitched especially.
Have you tried turning the sound off, or is it you being on the computer in general rather than playing Minecraft?
Do you play any other games? If not, it may be the higher load than normal causing the fans to spin, and maybe that's messing with his ears.
The only other thing I can think of, besides the dog simply seeking attention, are your actions while you play Minecraft. Whether you make noises or yell, fidget, gasp, move in your chair a lot (squeeky wheels?) etc.
Does the dog get upset when you have headphones on? If it's a beagle the sounds and or music may be messing with it's ears.
Frozen treat stuffed inside a Kong toy. You have at least 30 minutes. Lol
Have you checked to make sure he is not your human dad?
What’s human dad?
A featherless biped, my son
Invent Minecraft for Dogs.
Why play Minecraft when you could be playing with a real dog?
I mean, I like to do both lol. I spend most of my spare time with my pets, but sometimes I wanna do something for myself lol
I don't think you want to take your real life dog to do some underground mining
Let me stick some TNT in the dogs ass then
Feed him some rotten flesh
Yell back
Play Minetest and see how he reacts.
Tame a wolf and then kill it in front of him. Maintain eye contact while you do it. He'll get the message.
