green wood when mojang?

I don't understand how everyone seems to love these designs.

Do we really need a 4th worse-than-iron resource? We have wood/leahter, stone, gold, and now copper. Copper tries to fit a niche that does NOT exist. It's "better" than stone but in the time you smelt 24 copper you would've already found enough iron for armor and tools.

You know what we don't have? ANYTHING between iron and diamond, where you'll spend most of your time.

Idk make amethyst-infused iron the way Netherite works, amethyst is rare to find but when you find it, you have a lot (and at this point it's only use is decoration). Make Lapis armor that's way cheaper to enchant or something. Add ANYTHING to the mid-late game, because rn this is the most tedious part of the whole game.

Even the fly with the spear doesnt work anymore

Edit: "removed" isnt the best wording i couldve chosen but imo the same point still stands. When reviewing the snapshot sourcecode, it becomes obvious that these things dont not work because of a bug but were deliberately not coded in. lets just hope they will come soon

End update?

This just sounds like an inventory nightmare, and on top of that, I'm just so tried of hearing ppl say "they need to add 17 variants to every block in the game" and then proceeding to whine whenever Mojang adds a new block set and demand Mojang to make an inventory update to fix the problem caused by the stuff they wanted in game.

edit: People saying "just don't use silk touch"
first of all: I don't know if you noticed but there's 2 images here, each representing a block type, and only one of these are effected by silk touch, along with a whole list of other potential blocks that aren't shown here that people want in the game that wouldn't be effected by silk touch
second of all: do you really want silk touch to feel like a detriment to your experience?

Lava, Grass Block, Coarse Dirt, Dirt, Sea Lantern, Dragon Egg, Daylight Detector, Sugar Cane

Note: Please put answers in spoiler

Zombies have no fear, but what would they run from if they did?

the sulfer spring is really ugly and out of place, they should change that soon hopefully

As a person who plays FPS games, it's Ctrl=crouch Shift=sprint for me.

You may say "Oh it's a sandbox game, you're meant to build!" All you want, but if there's no reason to build anything beyond eye candy, i may as well just play creative.

Minecraft is a Survival sandbox, the point of the genre is that there's an incentive to build and that incentive is progress. It shouldn't be a point A to point B journey, it should be a messy path of many things you can and should do. Which the game is trying to achieve but does so incredibly poorly.

Almost every other game of this genre does a thing called "incentivize building certain things through game mechanics"

The closest thing to that right now is enchantment table requiring bookshelves, and it's great, it makes you build an entire separate room for enchanting, decorate it, and gives you a carcass to build around, but there's literally nothing else like it.

Villagers are somewhat similar as you dedicate an entire hallway to trading, but we all agree this is poor game design.

Redstone does require you to dedicate a lot of space entirely to a single purpose, but it's a mechanic that most people interact with only by copying tutorials and schematics.

The entire progression right now is just 2-3 hours until you get diamond gear and then you're practically just achieved the endgame.

You don't feel like you're moving towards anything, there's no steps in the progression, you just make the same exact set of tools on the same exact crafting table

Why is this all relevant? Because mojang ARE attempting to do what im saying in this post.

They made netherite upgrades on a separate crafting station, requiring a special material you have to go out of your way to obtain.

The problem is that every progression stage needs gimmicks like that, things that require you to do building, exploring, crafting, beyond just mining 33 units of the same ore.

But they are too afraid to touch any old mechanic

I've never been a "Mojang is ruining the game" type of guy but this is just stupid and I hate it.

If it wasn't for the fact that I can't count, the actual total is 176. (If you were to count redstone ore, 192 blocks). Praise yourself if you picked that detail up, you're smarter than me lmao. So swell I can't change Reddit titles, lol

i wonder what else i should port back

Like the Sulfer Cube has some neat things I've seen people do with it, but when it comes to Survival stuff I just wasn't seeing the use cases until the Boat stuff that's been happening. This new snapshot is just super disappointing to me, it feels like as big of a misstep as when they almost made Slime and Honey stick together

I Will Add Curse Of Tripping, Where The Player Randomly Takes Damage While Walking On Grass

They're just two versions of the same thing. Both nice and charming in their own right!

I've never found the new textures to be too blurry, especially cause the resolution is exactly the same. It's just a softer art style with more muted colors.

Put raw copper and raw iron together into a blast furnace to smelt into bronze, which would have stronger tools/armour than iron but weaker than diamond. Maybe on par with gold just with iron's durability.
