Hey guys, Gamesmind here. I used to love Minecraft back before 1.8, when the adventure update came out. Most of the additions that he has been adding to Minecraft seem extremely unnecessary and I would rather have the option to have them as a mod, than them to permanently be in the game. The horses/donkeys were obviously a copy of Dr. Zhark's Mo' Creature mod. If I wanted those, I'd go to Dr. Zhark's topic and download them.
The downfall of Minecraft began on December 02, 2011, and it's just getting worse and worse. When Notch was still around, I'd get excited to see a new update, but now, I'm always hoping there isn't one. Sure, Jeb's added a few nice things, like trading with villagers, but I really feel like he restricts or limits how much fun we can actually have. Minecraft is supposed to be a creative-sandbox game, and it seems like he's trying to change that.
Please post what you guys think below, whether you agree with me or not.
If you don't like it, leave. As simple as can be said.
You know, DrZhark helped Mojang add the horses. That just made his life a tad easier so he can add more stuff like dragons or whatever it is.
He's up there with Hippolatimus.
Typical Minecraft fanboy detected. Please don't just say "teh game is gud, ur nostalgia." actually make an argument.
There is no need to have horses/donkeys/whatever, because there is a MOD for it. Tbh, the whole concept of villagers and crap is very stupid. But then again, Minecraft is getting stupider everyday.
I personally don't like all the basic RPG elements Jeb has added. I also think the development has been lacking quality and replay value after a while.

This. I feel like Jeb has been taking the game away from what it was built as. Jeb would be better for an RPG type game.

So you're saying that adding stuff from real life is making Minecraft bad? Also he probably is feeling nostalgia, also no one talks like that. Some people can't install mods.

There's nothing wrong with liking pre-1.8. Just because someone likes pre-1.8, doesn't mean they're nostalgic. There's a lot of things that have been changed, added, and removed from Minecraft between 1.7.3 and 1.8. The biggest one is probably the terrain. I bought Minecraft in 1.2.5, but I like 1.7.3, am I nostalgic?

Okay so Jens should leave the game at nothing but the bare bones code and leave it. Because you know everything can be mods. Am I right?

How on earth is it possible that the creative part of MC is gone.
Jeb is adding more possibillites, it makes me sick to know that idiots like you that think that updates are currently ruining Minecraft. The only part that I hated being removed was the old terrain. Nothing else has been removed. Dr. Zhark HELPED Mojang add the horses you dumbass. Read stuff before spewing out ignorant bullcrap.

For you, NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO GET A MOD TO ENHANCE THE GAME! Point is just because there is a mod for something doesn't mean that Mojang CANNOT add it, keyword is CANNOT. No one was angry when piston's were added. Pistons were a mod too, you know. Heh, you know something about the branches on tree. They were added from a mod too. I've noticed no one complained about that. I noticed that after 1.8, 50 percent of the community has whined about updates.

It depends. My personal belief is that Minecraft was meant to be a lone survivor sandbox game. It was fairly simple, but you had lots of things to do. Now, with these crazy additions like villagers it is taking away from that. I am definitely not a fan of this. Some things should stay as Mods.
@44trent3 - The only reason people (apparently) started complaining after 1.8 because the game started really going downhill then. You saying that backs it up that 1.8+ was honestly more bad than good.
I've played since beta 1.7, I can agree with what you've said. Some additions were nice (Ender pearls, Nether fortresses, villages, enchanting) but some were stupid and/or RPGish (End/Enderdragon, hunger, horses) If I wanted a RPG version of Minecraft, I'd play Terraria.

Stupider every day...
I kind of agree. I cannot wait till they add the old versions to the new launcher.

Okay, keep your little Steve in 1.5 if you don't like horses, and stop complaining about the free updates we get. Mojang isn't charging us for these, it's a one time investment, why not look at the positives.
I don't like how Jeb made it show what the tool or item, potion does when you mouse over it. Isn't the whole point of making something new is to figure out what the item does by yourself? Not "Diamond Sword + 10 Damage" or "Potion of Weakness 8:00 weakness" (As if it wasn't obvious.)

Wtf? Free updates? I paid for this game, their job is to update it. Lmao.

Wow. They added horses for faster transportation and so that people didn't have to download a mod for them. If you guys don't like the fact that Jeb is making this game better then stop playing.

You sir are so uneducated. No where does it say ANYWHERE they are required to update it. You get what you pay for. They could quit right now and you couldn't do a single thing about it.
A game is defined by what is in it, same as anything. An update to a game, makes a game. What has been included is the game itself, and if you don't like what has been included, stop playing.
I, personally, cannot definitively say whether the game has been ruined or not. There's good points, and there's bad points. I'm pretty much neutral on it, and when there's something I dislike, I either deal with it, or ignore it.
I feel like Jeb has shifted the core of Minecraft into a different gear. He's made it more RPG-like, and it just doesn't feel the same as it was before, if you know what I mean. I feel like some better thought out updates could really make the game a lot better.
@Mbd12916 - Ofc they can stop updating it whenever they want. But I know they wont as long as they're squeezing money out of it. And, as long as they're going to keep cranking out updates - the updates might as well be good ones.
