I have been playing MineCraft since 6.4 and it was great. Then when Microsoft bought it and released 8.0 it just didn't feel right. Like they added too many mechanics that weren't necessary. Does anyone else feel this way?
Yes it did! They made PVP way better and the magic stuff was not "unnecessary" because they made doing things like poisoning an enemy a lot easier since you can just use a bow.
But the game was made for mining and crafting as stated in the name. Things that are for PVP should be put into mods so all the players that don't want to have to deal with all of the PVP stuff don't have too.
But it's not just items. They added a bunch of mobs which was completely unnecessary and the Guardians aren't even accessible without a bunch of potions.
I'm not saying that I don't want to play the updates. I'm just saying that the updates were unnecessary.
So what exactly are you complaining about? By the way, this is a bedrock forum, not java. So you might be best having a moan over there. If you just like mining, then there is nothing stopping you from just doing that. It's funny though, it is really annoying when you buy a game and then they give you loads of extra free content. Disgraceful

You are several years late complaining about this. Notch quit being involved with developing Minceraft long before he sold to Microsoft. Mojang has been and is the one developing the Java version so Microsoft hasn't done anything to Minecraft.
As Conart has pointed out, you have also posted this in the wrong forum.

HOW DARE THEY!
But you don't understand, the game is called Minecraft therefore the only things you should be able to do is mine and craft because, apparently, the title of a game has to be taken literally.
I didn't realize there was more than one MineCraft forum but it is never too late to get things fixed. The game should be put back to the way it was. Plus my point was to ask if anyone else felt as if the game got worse since then.
I don't imagine anyone would want the game 'fixing' the way you mean. Actually taking out loads of content would be a huge step backwards. Ludicrous suggestion, go play the very first version of minecraft if thats the experience you want, but don't force it on everyone else.

Since you are playing Java Minecraft it is my understanding that you can choose the version that you want to play so if you want it the "way it was" you can play whatever version that was.
Seems to me you're one of those people that thinks everything should be the way you want it to be and if it isn't it is somehow wrong. Life doesn't work that way, it isn't all about you. This may be hard to hear but very very little in this entire world is about you. Much less than you would think. This is true for all of us. The sooner you figure this out the better off you'll be, and those who have to be around you.

Well you know that the things added were to make the game better and they did.
But did they really? They made a simple game a more complex game. The addition of shields and all the magic stuff was so unnecessary.
Yes it did! They made PVP way better and the magic stuff was not "unnecessary" because they made doing things like poisoning an enemy a lot easier since you can just use a bow.

They only added a few extra slots in the inventory and the arrows are at the bottom of the creative items list so they wouldn't be in anyone's way.
But it's not just items. They added a bunch of mobs which was completely unnecessary and the Guardians aren't even accessible without a bunch of potions.
Look dude if you don't like the updates just play on a older version. No one is making you play these updates.
I'm not saying that I don't want to play the updates. I'm just saying that the updates were unnecessary.
