>TFW your first taste of Minecraft was back in Classic on July 18,2009
Why haven't they brought it to Wii U? I imagine the Gamepad would work very well with the item box and crafting.
>>318293238
Why would Microsoft want to invest time and money releasing one of their games on a direct competitor's platform especially when that platform has a minuscule install-base and is on the way out?
>tfw beta 1.73
Literally perfection. Just went downhill from there.
>>318293238
Fucking Nintendrones. Please stop.
>>318293238
Minecraft Wii U appeared on a PEGI rating board recently but got taken off
I don't know if that means its coming to Wii U but they are hiding the special or it just got cancelled
>>318293238
>>318293385
It is coming to Wii U, you niggers need to learn how to use google.
>>318293741
As much as I am happy about Minecraft coming to the Wii U there is no need for racism itt.
>>318293042
I miss the bright green grass and trees.
RIP permanent snowing worlds
Alpha was a beautiful thing.
I spent so many endless hours just digging a hole and building a giant fortress full of storage rooms.
Dwarf Fortress has managed to give me the feeling that MineCraft used to on a broader scale. So, I guess i don't care that MineCraft was ruined.
What went so terribly wrong?
>>318294475
Hunger and easily regenerable health.
>>318294475
Nothing. It was the game's destiny to turn into cancer. The concept is far too similar to Lego and the art style is too childish which is why it attracts lots of children. These children slowly poisoned the community, making the adults leave. Now it's about 90% children. And anyone who knows just a little bit about business knows that the customer dictates the market which is why Minecraft adapted to the desires of prepubescent children.
>>318293042
"this is the Lego game that Lego should have made if they weren't fucking around making Lego versions of popular movies"
>>318294048
Shut the fuck up double nigger.
>tfw you play minecraft for the first time
The fuck is this the fuck is that the fuck I do the fuck I go?
>>318294850
Yeah, because it's not like those children are going to grow up to be adult consumers or anything.
Star Wars' financial empire is built on childhood nostalgia.
>>318293042
>tfw minecraft is now enjoyable only when play with others
>tfw have no one to play with
>>318293490
>Those biomes before beta 1.8
It was the comfiest shit
>>318293042
I used to build Forerunner structures and pretend I was trapped on a Forerunner planet. Shit was fun for a while.
>>318294965
>sonicfags ladies and gentelmen
>>318293180
Almost same period.
I wish I discover it now with all new features.
>>318295014
You really can't compare a franchise built around movies to a video game. A game like Minecraft will always get updated while movies like Star Wars only get released every now and then. It's easier to get bored of a game.
i miss minecraft alpha
>>318295310
We all do anon. We all do...
>tfw you always set out to start a world by yourself but then get bored because its funner with friends
>>318295013
I remember trying to break a dirt block so I kept clicking repeatedly hoping it would break. I thought the game was bugged xD
>>318295310
Honestly, you can probably find an Alpha build online to nostalgia in.
I bet it can even be set up for multiplayer still as long as other people have the same client.
did anyone else here watch X's adventures in minecraft? good LP desu lads
>>318295430
>always want to play with the new content
>multiplayer was always behind
>Playing the old survival test mode with a small cozy map where you know every nook and cranny

>Killing skeletons and dodging the arrow explosion they made on dying
>Mining gold to get those cool half-gold blocks for construction
Hold me, /v/. I want to go back to those carefree days...
>>318295562
It isn't the same. Just like with old school runescape. It looks the same but it feels wrong.
>>318295596
I watched Coestar, fun shit back in the time
Dude played for like a year or more on the same world since alpha
>>318295786
i remember finding out about water shaders and thinking they were the coolest shit ever
>playing alpha for the first time
I swear to God when I first started playing there was this weird pre-made little wooden shed/house. I always thought it was normal until many years later I posted about it and anons said there was no such thing.
It was really weird and I know nobody will ever believe me. Only one who saw it also was my friend but he's dead.
I've done so much research trying to find another example but there isn't anything.
Makes me wish I can go back in time and save that world or something.
Just remember, you all paid with your own money for an unfinished alpha version game and Notch is now sitting in the most expensive mansion in LA fucking hot girls every day and laughing at your stupidity.
You wouldn't go to Mcdonalds and pay for a frozen raw burger, so why pay for unfinished video games?
Tfw never played it and don't really know what it is

I can't understand the popularity of this game.
>>318296103
my friends and i were talking about this yesterday. why not just get a USB with minecraft on it.
>>318295874
Yeah, didn't even mind playing at ~20 FPS if I could use one. Shit looked glorious, even with default textures.

You didn't imagine it, Anon. You're talking about that little 3x3 wood hut?
Your friends just started playing after Survival came out officially.
>>318295884
There was a version, bot sure of indev or infdev that featured a blocky wooden box as a starting house
>>318296320
It did get a bit out of hand
>>318296210

Notch is confirmed for not fitting in with the rich crowd, and gets no women.

Almost as good as my first time playing WoW, and feeling like a unit in a Warcraft III game.

Well that's grim.
i remember notch coming here and shilling minecraft,
signing up with only 390 people signed up total.
i remember it was free. and like (1 euro) at the time.
i remember tossing ore into lava to smelt it.
>>318296719
sure kiddo. keep pretending. Nobody that likes minecraft played warcraft when it was good. This is the kind of shit that will get you ostracised in real life. You cant just bullshit everyone and think just becasue they didnt call me out today they believed it.

>You really can't compare a franchise built around movies to a video game. A game like Minecraft will always get updated while movies like Star Wars only get released every now and then. It's easier to get bored of a game.
You mean the way children who grew up with Star Wars have grown bored with Star Wars games?

Yeah but it isn't the same since they added Apache helicopters.

Why are kids obsessed with minecraft when we thought they just liked mature games like call of duty?

>>318297974

>>318298081
/vg/ still does.
Also the game has literally been discussed to death.
>>318293042
>tfw that was 6 years ago
>>318298081
Minecraft was a fad. Same with every other indie game, like the recent Undertale.
>>318298239
no, but its -66%, 3,39€ on steam right now
>>318297702
the worst part about minecraft is the fucking infinite god damn caves
I have never seen a fucking cave system end before
>>318298364
Can I pirate it?
>>318298487
Probably
>>318297886
Does ANYONE fuck with the magic/exp system? I only ever use it to try and get underwater breathing helmets.
>>318298239
no but it's constantly on sale for pennies
>>318298437
I don't have a credit card. I don't have gift cards. Fuck, I only use steam to play Team Fortress 2.
>>318296810
I think there are kids gumball machine for $25
>>318294475
Notch didn't know what he wanted, so he threw a bunch of "ideas of a game" into it. A survival game, an adventure RPG and legos all into one sandbox.
He then never stuck to any one of these ideas and let them fester as incomplete tumors.
Think about the gameplay progression of minecraft for a moment
>Game starts out as survival
>Fine food, hide in dirt
>Build a house, build a farm
>survival ends here, nothing that spawns at night can do shit anymore
>Game clumsily enters adventure state
>mine up resources with the goal of decking yourself out in rpg gear.
>Go explore shit and find "dungeons" that all look the same with random rewards
>go into the nether with the goal of making potions
>Then go find the fortress to enter the end and kill the ender dragon
There is no direction here, it's just a garbage bin of ideas of what the game could have bin.
The question is, what should it have been? should it have been a randomly generated adventure game with loads of dungeon types and biomes? Should it have been a survival game where you must build and protect territory? Should it simply have been virtual legos with loads of mechanics ?
>you will never have your first world again
It was too perfect
Nothing will ever be able to recreate it
>>318297886
What was wrong with all those systems? What was the big deal?
so who's hosting a vanilla server?
Did they ever bother to mitigate the fact that you need the fucking wiki for half of the recipes?
>>318298585
it's basically only good for diving helmets and feather touch tools so you can move grass and shit.
unless you intend to fucking min max in minecraft of course
>>318293042
it was great because to me it was really mysterious and cryptic about what i had to do.
but now that i know practically everything it's not really fun anymore unless i'm playing with friends.
>ITT: Faggots sticking to unfinished versions without reading the "subject to change" part on the license.
>>318298585
Gotta get dat silk touch.
Also unlimited bow.
>Vanilla keeps getting shittier every update with more half-baked bullshit and bugs, especially with mobs being floaty and slow as shit just so Ryan Holtz could put in his meme rabbit from Monty Python
>Mods keep getting shittier because of the god awful community and all the drama relating to FTB, Forge and Curse as well as specific modders, each mod just seems to be a blander version of an already existing mod and each update seems to dumb down what modders can do as well
>Older Versions may be comfy but they don't have nearly as many building materials as the more recent ones
>>318298778
only on console/mobile versions, I think PC still has the old crafting
>>318293042
I don't know that feel.
>>318298886
The fuck you just say?
Bitch?
>>318298778
I think the console versions just tell you how to make all the items. I don't know if they ever added an interface like that to PC
>>318298706
This, I carved out a mountain and lived on the top of it overlooking the ocean. I also had a crazy cave system that I placed signs all around to help with navigation, the entrance was a nearby mine and I connected all the way from the bottom of the mine to the top of my mountain.
I miss it, I wish I still had the save.
>>318296103
Wait what? What does it do?
I remember feeling pretty proud for making this lava tunnel thing as the entrance to my house.
I also can't believe it was half a fucking decade ago.
>>318298942
>curse doesn't even let you download the full modpack off their website

;_;
>>318299174
And as of late, the Curse Client apparently comes with a fucking Bitcoin Miner.
Unbelievable.
Shit like this was the best, underwater caves were amazing but you rarely ever got them.
>>318298482
I have but...
>get to end of cave
>decide to make it into a tunnel system
>end up revealing more cave while chiseling it out
>>318298706
I had the world's most beautiful underwater fortress that took forever to get the water out of.
>>318299263
It's the complete opposite for me, I never find anything beyond a few pools of lava. But that's probably because I get down to Y:13 and start making branch mines as soon as I get an Iron Pickaxe.
>>318299018
I did something like that too; I found a mountain, cleared all the stone out of it and made a home out of it using the dirt left over as natural walls
That has always been one of my favorite house themes
>>318296146
woohoo man
woooooooo

Pretty much this.
I still fire up minecraft every now and then to make something in creative.
I have a boner for SKY CASTLES in particular.
I always used to build in the sky. Niggas never look up.
Where did it all go so wrong?

>>318299259
My favorite is when exposed mineshafts popped up directly beneath the ocean.
Speaking of ocean, why the fuck were sponges never put back in the game? It would have made the boring-ass ocean slightly more interesting.
>>318299647
Reddit, /mlp/ Bias and the fact that most 4chan Projects never end up being successful.
I generated a huge world that is nothing but snowy mountains biome. I still play on that world whilst listening to podcast when I cant sleep. I turned diamond spawning on high so its actually easier to find diamonds than coal just to maximize droning and construction. so fucking comfy.
>>318298770
gimme a version and i'll think about it
Anyone else remember the secret friday updates or whatever were they called?
First thing I'd do friday after coming home I'd check Notch's blog and see what he added
>>318299647

>>318299647
Never, ever forget Mogo's sacrifice.
>>318299702
There are Sponges in Survival now, but you have to loot them from Ocean Monuments, a relatively new feature.
And to even survive in those, you'll have to do a metric ton of enchanting and potion brewing thanks to the fact it's underwater, you get Mining Fatigue until the "bosses" are killed and the mobs in there, Guardians, can attack from afar.
>>318294475
Once all of the game mechanics of minecraft survival mode have been mastered, there's not much else to experience.
I remember back during the days before regenerating health, I was extremely terrified of the opposing monsters, and had built overworld lighted tunnels so that every path I walked had no possibility of a monster coming from behind or front. Each piece of ore and block felt very precious as it wasn't a matter of finding them, but a challenge to return back to my fortress in order to see their safe storage. Every cobblestone block felt valuable as it was another contribution to my stronghold's defense against monster spawns.
Now, much has changed. Monsters don't feel very threatening anymore. I knew how to better handle the monster encounters, and thus every monster in the game felt non-threatening. I got better at finding ores, which resulted me making a set of iron armor, a luxury which before I felt was not worth the cost of the work it took to get the materials, now able to be made en masse with little effort. Most of my minecraft sessions would begin and end with myself digging a straight line at layer 12 in search for diamonds, as there's fewer methods for more efficient diamond harvesting. At this point in time, my time with minecraft felt more of a combat against luck rather than combat against monsters and the wilderness.
Not satisfied with endless existence unchallenged, I decided to try a new idea: beat the game from start to finish without ever settling into a house or sleeping in a bed once. I deemed this challenge the nomad run. It proved to be very fun. The tension of defeat had once again returned, and I felt thrills from survival mode again, however...
I ended up completing my nomad run challenge. Several times.
After each subsequent run, my feelings of tension lessened. Just like my sessions where I dug endlessly for diamonds, these nomad runs felt like I was at the mercy of luck rather than my survival skills.

>>318293042
I remember the 4chan server and stealing stuff from peoples stashes and placing only some of what I stole in their neighbors turning half the server against itself while I roamed free to pilfer againThis killed the server and my fun time though
>>318299647
>join the /a/ island in one of the iterations of 4craft

Another time I joined /trv/ in hopes of us being a postal/merchanting service where we would be neutral and trade the nations for stuff. It never took off though, but still had fun while it lasted.
Didn't /mlp/ ruin it every single time 4craft was going on or something?
Minecraft was cooler before people developed ways to generate objects and terrain.
I liked building fancy stuff, but then it turned into "you could have done that so much faster and easier with this program".
>>318300112
Yeah, most of the time there was a huge /mlp/ bias such as them getting more diamonds in their territory or some other bullshit.
>>318294475
people will say
>muh hunger
>muh exp
But in truth that stuff just added to the game. Nothing really went wrong, the game just got old after a while. That and the fanbase.
>>318294785
Are you an idiot? Prehunger you didn't even need armor, you could very easily just spam food to heal.

I grew up on Warcraft II and III, and I think Minecraft is great fun with friends.
Minecraft solo is autism fuel though, idk why people do that shit.
What is the deal with all this Forge and Curse shit?
Can anyone be kind enough to give me quick bullet points as to what they are?
This thread is making me want to play Minecraft and install a few mods, but all this mod launcher shit is confusing and I haven't played since 1.7.something like most anons here.
Can you still install mods the old way of extracting into your .jat file?
Thanks
who /2b2t/ here?
that shit was my jam.
no rules, no consequences, no resets, no handholding, no bullshit.
it was perfect chaos.
>>318300248
EXP isn't bad I don't know why people complain about it so much
Hunger is indefensible though, it's just a fucking annoying chore
So can we agree that Project E is best Minecraft mod?
>>318300527
is it still up? I used to wander around taking pictures of the ruins
The very first steps into MP were neat. Even with everything regularly falling apart,
It's a shame what notch promised and never fulfilled, but I certainly got my €10 of fun out of it in the end.
That said, considering what it has become today...I would have never bought it.
>tfw every fucking letsplayers plays this shit to gain fame
i can't look back to this game anymore, i'll stick with terraria now.
>>318297320

>Forge

They also pay few cents to popular mods

As you can see it killed English scene
>>318300527
I still check in every so often on my cozy underground home on a tiny remote island. I have the door hidden by dirt so nobody's ever found it. I sometimes find abandoned boats on the coast of the island but my burrow remains untouched. If I ever finally decide to play again, I have a shitload of food and mined metals stocked up for the next journey across the wasteland.
>>318300673
It's been years since I checked.
But yeah, sightseeing is a must.
>>318301061
Can I still install mods by extracting into the .jar file?
Or does it have to be installed with the installer?
>tfw no good terrafirma servers
>all have starting gear, protection zones, or something equally cancerous
I'm almost tempted to host my own server
I want my cavemen being barely able to survive with people dying in cave collapses after ferrying tons of dirt and stone
I'm just afraid that the playerbase would be too small
>>318301061
"dont steal my code."
said some faggot that learned how to code mods from other peoples code. Fucking even modders are turning into entitled shitters these days.
>>318301064
I've built-up and abandoned dozens of bases roaming far across the server. Including an entire village.
I wonder how many of them remain untouched.
>>318299919
Eventually I would cease playing the game altogether only returning to play survival mode online with friends in realms. This proved fun for a while, as I felt building impressive collaborative buildings was far more fun than the grind for survival. Knowing that something I made would be seen and judged by someone else felt more interactive and unpredictable of an experience.
This led to some frustrations, as my friend always desired to completely abandon our current world and start over again. I would tolerate this for a while, but eventually I no longer could tolerate seeing my creations that I had spent hours on making in a multiplayer server disappear.
After another period of minecraft hiatus, I would approach the same friend again, and suggest playing the game again, except this time in collaborative creative mode.
After that session was experienced, I had came to the conclusion that creative mode was the only gamemode left for me in minecraft. The only joys I am able to experience with the game is building megalomaniac sculptures with blocks, and creative mode allows me to do that uninhibited. The way I see it, the combat and exploration in its vanilla state has its limits, but creating structures with myself and others I feel has limitless possibilities.
In conclusion, I don't think anything with minecraft has went terribly wrong, I think that players have become exceedingly skilled with the game, resulting in a stagnant experience. The game has not changed, you have simply gotten better, and there's nothing left that minecraft can challenge you with.

It was always fun for the first week or two.
Most people would play a few hours a day, then leave after a few weeks. The autists (/a/ and /mlp/) however would be online 10 hours a day each, and stay until everyone left.
It was always the most fun when everyone was online and there were massive clusterfuck battles.

At most it did with the ender dragon but that's more generic rpg than terraria
Hunger was a mistake.
The End was a mistake.

>>318303530
actually in the case of minecraft this is what happened
minecraft gathered a massive austismo fanbase and notch lazily catered to them instead of going with his original vision, because he realized how easy it was going to be to get autism bux

On paper it seems like it should be really fun but whenever I install it I always uninstall it within 20 minutes.
>>318304102
It's a pointless system.
Food should enhance your abilities, not just fill an arbitrary bullshit hunger mechanic.
It's like the fusion cores for power armor in fallout 4, it'd make sense if fusion cores were actually rare and hard to get, but they're literally everywhere so there's no point.

I always kinda wished you could play a mode where everyone is on one massive server, but spawned really far away from each other. So there's a rare chance of finding other players but not likely. I'm sure someone made a server like that but I never really looked.

True.
Still dont understand why they changed the world generation to a more boring one, in alpha/beta you would get cool as fuck landscapes, now you just get flat fields or woodland.
Whats wrong with hunger?
>>318293042
I found Minecraft to be too difficult and confusing.
Like how do I craft?
Wtf right?!
>>318303062
Give it an actual "base" to build off of. The biggest issue I see with minecraft is that there's no direction for it to go besides a glorified building simulator. Maybe focus more on the "mine" part of the game and add in some sort of gemcrafting system, where you can go and dig up certain minerals and work with them to create powerful jewels to socket into armor or something. You could combine jewels to power them up and create all sorts of combinations of abilities. Something like that.

There used to be a wide variety of interesting mods, even if they weren't all that great, but at least there was some semblance of creativity and thought.
Now everything is just a knockoff of something else, as all the modders have a circlejerk race to see who can make the "easiest" tech/magic/etc mod before anyone else.

Didn't notch also originally use placeholder graphics and then decide to keep them, which resulted in Minecraft's art style?

>>318301061
>Modloader stopped being updated
This is literally because only because Forge got popular. Back in Beta I think you need both Forge and Modloader but only for a few mods, then one of the Forge devs integrated Modloader into it and basically told the Modloader dev to fuck off. He didn't even complain or anything, he just kinda faded away and accepted his fate.
>one man was the base of the modding community through all of alpha and most of beta
>a huge group of people gave him the boot and have been doing a worse job than him for the past several versions
>Tfw didnt know how to find cobblestone for a good month the first time i played
Imagine if, while playing alone but connected to the internet, you'd occasionally stumble across stuff made by other players. Like, maybe a player puts an item on a structure and draws some lines to show the game what part of it is the player's creation, and then that spawns in other players' games. Taking stuff from it wouldn't affect the creator's game, it would just be a copy. So you could leave resources for other people to find, or traps to screw over other players, or you could just make a cool building or whatever for other players to stumble across, to make the world feel more alive and less random.

It clashed with what people wanted minecraft to be.
Notch decided to see if minecraft could be a survival game and added a hunger system, which inhibited exploration.
This offended the people who wanted to just build shit, because they now had the arbitrary task of securing food. But it really offended the people that wanted minecraft to serve as randomly generated adventure rpg, because a hunger meter would impair exploration.
>>318305961

>tfw the only good modpack nowadays is Tekkit Classic and because the new versions of mods that were in TC completely changed Tekkit is complete trash despite being on a much better version of minecraft

>>318305506
How brainless are you?
>>318304824
It shifted the game's direction.
It went from "Do whatever you want, but be careful not to get hit" to "nigga, go build a hut, now make a farm, now do this and that and kill the dragon"
Too much is forced for the played to do to have a good time. You can't just chop wood and build houses, you also have to constantly worry if your hunger is high enough.
Minecraft isn't about survival. It's about mining and crafting. If you want survival go play Don't Starve

Yes, the graphics were placeholders and the art would have been something like this from the old artist, Dock.
Then everyone decided they loved it because of the "Retro" Look and it took off from there and Dock left for his own reasons.
>>318305132

>>318299919
If you want something more challenging than your Nomad run, try UHC mode. You disable health regen, which makes it so you can only heal using golden apples until you make it far enough to get potions.
It makes every bit of damage count, so you have to actually measure risk/reward for everything you do. Being careless will lead to death, or a total depletion of resources.
>>318306852

>>318307186
A lot of modders don't even want to bother anymore because every update is just another metric ton of coding changes that just make the process of updating harder, and waiting for Forge to settle into a stable version that isn't riddled with bugs.
I first discovered minecraft back in january 2011 minecraft and was stunned by it (the same day I also saw LoL but I didn't care for it other than watching those art spotlights)
sadly I had no own computer back then, so I had to cu.ck around my buddy just to watch him play on his pc, since he was an fucking asshole and never let me play!
but I wanted to play this game so fucking badly that I took old computers from the trash and used the working components to build my own pc

Holy shit, I was thinking about this the other day and remembered that I still had the number of a dude who was in my online friend group back in the day. All of them are basically the same now, even still play minecraft. It made me kind of sad because we all used to be nerdy kids in high school and now that we are in college they are still the same whereas I got /fit/, put games on the back burner, and basically became a normie. What happened?
>>318306083
Sounds like these people complaining need to git gud.
Food sources aren't exactly scarce especially when you can camp out, replenish your stock of vegetables and set out again. Then there's exploring for meat sources and what not so it adds incentive towards exploration for the correct biomes for the mobs.
Its survival/adventure at it's core.
if you want to create play creative.
When it came out I was a junior/senior in high school. My friends set up a private server and we built towns (and in-hill houses) and shit. Goddamn the music of sunset, sunrise, exploring, etc will always stick with me and make me nostalgia.

this was the only interesting thing in minecraft. You could get these dope ass floating continents and then build sky bridges and shit to explore them. Then they took them out, then they added portals and carts, it was like oh look how rewarding mining out a floating continent could have been had they not removed them.
All worlds are now cookie cutter fucking grass snow rock then underworld.

I remember that they worked really fucking hard to improve the villages after 1.0, with zombie sieges and whatnot.
I still think they have potential beyond being soulless trading stations.

Yeah the early build caves were great, that's one of the things I miss the most. The crap we got now just seems forced. Nothing seems randomly generated anymore its all "Well this set of things is here where it was before a million other times...ok".
Notch's terrain generation was a work of great autism and I loved it.

>>318311245
No, just using shit called ffmpeg without any bitrate settings.
The problem with MC was that Notch kept on adding half-assed shit. "Dude like you know what would be cool? RPG things and stuff."
- Exp, doesn't fit in a exploration/sandbox game, which was what MC was
- Achievements, half-assed and don't even work
- Potions, RPG element that doesn't fit
- Nether, one of the "hey i bet this is cool" things of when you thought of it but later released it's retarded
- Etc, I can understand he probably thought "that's probably cool to add" at the spur of the moment but later realize it's actually not and then can't remove it
What he should have done was create a menu the player can choose "do i want floating island gen, hunger, exp, potion, etc"
It's a shame, MC had a lot of potential but now it's permanently ruined.
>>318304525
I mean, honestly, a better thing might be to build on the geology of the maps. Like, make more interesting types of stone all over instead of just pockets of random weird looking rock. Make things in layers and shit. Also, just ad more weirdness to map generation. more verticality, more places that are non permissive to traditional farming and building. Make biomes make sense near eachother. Meaning, if you're going to have a tundra near a desert, make there be a large mountain range between them. If you want to have a swamp, make it be at the end of a large number of rivers or be at/ below sea level and it should be decently close to large rivers or the ocean. Make oceans have interesting coastal biomes like mangrove swamps and/or high cliffsides. Also make mobs that are adapted to biomes. Zombies are in a different pallete in the snow biomes, spiders have lots of fur in snow biomes. Zombies are more degraded/ rotten in jungles and swamps or are mummies in the desert.
If they just improved on core concepts of the game (enviroments, resource layout) it'd be great.
Also, make trees and plants drop seeds/ saplings naturally over time. I want to see forests grow and spread.

that's really not true in the slightest, I cannot stand singleplayer survival since around beta 1.7, though I wouldn't solely blame the hunger/XP changes like most anons have, instead it's the world generation and dumbing-down of the mob AI that killed the game for me. Also, recent updates have been incredibly slow (over a year's development) with garbage features made to appeal to the new babby userbase that populates the game, and Mojang's habit of not properly patching out issues guarantees that any new feature of the game will be broken for months (and likely never fixed).
The game was never particularly great to begin with, more a new experience in an untapped genre of vidya at the time, but it really is fucking terrible by now, a butchered mess of bugs and poor game design

I never really got the appeal of survival singleplayer but multiplayer can be a blast, I have some fond memories of early survival servers I'd hosted with some chumps. I still haven't even started with modding yet so I have all that to try sometime.
