Notch recently commented on the perception of Endermen as they currently exist, saying "they're annoying, and because I nerfed them and made them too easy. I shall fix this." Any number of changes could be made to the Endermen to make them more difficult - more health, higher damage, more aggressive behavior - time will ultimately reveal any changes made to them.
Endermen have been a popular topic since their introduction in the 1.8 update, starring in numerous videos that run the spectrum from hilarious to terrifying. They have certainly set themselves up to be as well known (if not more well known) than Minecraft's ever-popular Creeper. What changes await this elusive monster? We will find out soon!
Give them really scary sound effects.
Give a huge boost to their difficulty. Maybe even get rid of their weakness to water.
Make them rarer. Maybe even spawn solo instead of in packs.
When I see an Enderman I should go "Oh s***, maybe I don't want to go that way."
YES YES YES! Great decision notch! Make their behavior a lot more unpredictable, and it would be cool if fighting an Enderman is not always the same thing (for example there are 3 types of endermen that fight and react differently) Then the will look like a peaceful mob lol
Perhaps instead of being weak to water, they should WALK ON IT? idk i just pulled that out of my ass.
They also need to be a lot stronger.
I also suggest that there be a radius around them in which they automatically become aggravated. it's sort of... not creepy to simply be able to brush up against them and have them perfectly fine with it.
I think I liked the concept of the Endermen better when they just looked at you. The staring contest was a lot more nerve-wracking than the purple-eyed man screaming silently at you.

Also yes, endermen aren't hard enough right now
IMO, what Notch should do is:
Give them really scary sound effects.
Give a huge boost to their difficulty. Maybe even get rid of their weakness to water.
Make them rarer. Maybe even spawn solo instead of in packs.
