I am a bit wary of the NPC villages that Notch is working on, simply because of the massive hit to FPS experienced with mods that add stuff like this (Builders, Millenaire, ect.). I play with them on select worlds, simply because my FPS takes a hit of about 20 FPS. For people with 40FPS average, like myself, this is a bit of a hit.
What I'm getting at is that these "Villages" should be toggleable, for the people with framerates like mine, or worse. Anyone else thinking the same?
EDIT: Also, what if people like the barren feeling/don't want other things built?
I would just murder all of them and grief their houses. Problem solved! I'm actually looking forward to villages for that reason :SSSS:. It would be a great addition to the "destroyer" style of gameplay.
Hmm.. Well the general consensus is get a better computer or "Shut the **** up" so I'll make two polls. One with whether you think a toggle is a good Idea, and another for you're average FPS on Fast/Normal.

I thought I had brought up a very good topic for the community, when I am flooded by people that think every computer that can't pull 60-80FPS on minecraft needs to be updated, or we should just stop playing it.
Simply upgrade hardware, its not that hard. Just get some money, buy some things. PRESTO.
I personally use a laptop for all my things, as I'm not a huge computer gamer, as many minecrafters are, and as we all know, certain laptops arn't all that friendly to updrades. Especially if it's something like the CPU or GPU.

I don't think Notch should limit his game based on the limitations of people's old computers.

I moderate these forums as much as I can despite not being a moderator.
I strongly support:
Better clouds
Natural Disasters
More uses for The Nether
I'm trying to stay positive.
In all seriousness though it's stupid to be able to toggle major game elements.
Ok, tell that to the masses of people complaining after the update.
There is nothing that will stop the massive epidemic of complaining and nothing that will make us care and cave into your petty demands.
EDIT: Done, Vote!

not really.

The problem is not everyone has money to spend.
I would expect 90% of the computers made today to get 40 fps or less on the highest settings.
