Before when Markus Persson ( Creator of Minecraft / Mojang ) new items and blocks would come out not very often. This says that he took more time thinking and creating the things to improve the game.
Now jeb_ has control of the game and is the new owner. New items and blocks have been coming out very often, on average every couple days to 1-2 weeks. This of course means that he is not putting a lot of thought into the game.
jeb_ has now added rabbits! I mean come on, Minecraft did not need this. As in the latest snapshot, he added different types of doors. It has sort of messed up how Minecraft is, Minecraft is a simple game. It should not have different types of doors and rabbits! jeb_ has added many more thing that were unnecessary to add to the game.
Basically what I am trying to say / ask, do you think since jeb_ has been in control the game Minecraft has got worse? What do you think made it worse?
Notch used to release weekly updates for a while, so I don't see how it is bad that Jeb is adding new things. Why does it matter that he added Rabbits? I could say Notch added a fair few things which can be considered to be more useless (ie. Snow Golems.) And does it really matter that there is a few more types of door? I love how Minecraft used to be, but I also love all the new things we're getting.

You can apparently read Notch's mind. Notch in fact didn't even think the game would be poplular and pretty much messed around with it.

What do you mean not a lot of thought? There you go reading people's minds again. People have been begging for new blocks every update. Updates are good. It keeps people interested in the game. Don't update if you don't like it.

This game is about building things. You obviously don't know how to play if you don't utilize new blocks in builds. Everything is unnecessary if you look at it that way. Let's just remove every single block in the game except dirt and stone.

Jeb has been in control since the official release. Minecraft has gotten better and the sales proves it. If you don't like it, don't play. Simple as that.

I'm sick of people complaining about Minecraft updating. It's progressing. If it didn't progress, than there would be even more people complaining about its lack of updates. If you don't like the direction that Minecraft is going, than keep it to yourself.
Because negativity isn't assisting the game's progression, either.
I believe jeb_ has made the game worse. And before anyone starts commenting on me being negative, negativity is needed in all communities. This is constructive negativity, not spam, hate filled negativity.
I will be referring to the young group of people that play Minecraft as 5 year olds.
Here are a few of my personal problems with the game:
The new authentication system (Killing your session each time you log in, seriously?)
JSON Addiction (This is a video game, not a web server)
All of the following problems are tied together (The real problem):
Re-coloring every existing block/item (They must be out of ideas, or are making the game more attractive for a specific group of people (5 year olds))
All content in the game is now aimed towards 5 year olds (Re-coloring everything specifically, we all know 5 year olds like random colors). Let me remind you that there are people in their 50's and 60's playing this game (Does not include myself)
Minecraft Realms - Seriously? You're going to add a server hosting service to make more money? This just tells me that Mojang is all aimed at making money, specifically with 5 year olds. Realms is "user friendly". We already have normal minecraft servers, it should have been left at that.
EULA - I save the best for last. Mojang is now restricting server owners from making money, without money they will shut down, and that makes it possible for Mojang to make more money. Instead of now having 5 year olds stealing their parents credit cards to donate to servers, they will be stealing their parents credit cards to pay for Mojangs worthless Realms "user friendly" services.
Can we for once not have a game company that is focused on highly monetizing their game? A company that actually cares? Of course not, money is everything. Now you guys add all of this up, and tell me that I'm wrong. It makes perfect sense to me.
all of this stuff that has been added has been wanted by the community for a while now so no i dont think minecraft is messed up. Jeb also isnt the only one working on minecraft. Doors and fences weren't coded in by jeb.
If you are affraid of progress, then go some where else because the world is made for progress. Everything in the world needs to progress to survive and progression isnt all that bad...
I hate it when gamers (not true gamers because of this) hate when games change. People want something new and not something that is constantly the same.
all this thread is good for is flame wars so im going to step away.
all of this stuff that has been added has been wanted by the community for a while now so no i dont think minecraft is messed up.
Agreed! Mojang delivers, and there's always going to be some minority that\'s going to moan about it.
And Honestly, Ri5ux, the colors look fine. They probably look better than before. (Yes, I'm looking at you, old bright bricks.)

You say that because someone can't spend their parents money on things on another server, they will just go and buy their own server? Where is the logic behind any of that

Recoloring every existing block/item
Please, explain to me what Guardians and rabbits are a "re coloration" of. You have to remember, Minecraft is a game that is based upon blocky geometry. They aren't going to create spherical geometry, and ruin Minecraft, just so they can suit the wants of people like you.
All content in the game is now aimed towards 5 year olds
You keep making the reference that recoloring items is a bad thing. As I've stated before, if Minecraft didn't update, or "recolor" things as you say, than the game would already be far past dead, simply because there are no more blocks.
Minecraft Realms - Seriously?
So before, the community was upset because servers were too hard to set up. Now, they need something else to complain about, so they pick Realms. Realms is no different than Xbox Live. It's simply a way to connect with friends. Do I agree with the fee? No. So I figure out how to open up a server myself, the FREE way. There are alternatives to everything.
EULA - I save the best for last.
So you're telling me that it is okay for server owners to monetize with all of these pay to win ranks (ruining the game and pushing players away) on a game that isn't even theirs, but it isn't okay for Mojang, the CREATORS of the game, to monetize themselves on their own game?
Can we for once not have a game company that is focused on highly monetizing their game?
Congratulations, you've just learned on how large companies work. Mojang is actually one of the better ones, simply because they take their fans suggestions on additions to the game.
If you don't believe me, than play some Grand Theft Auto. See how much Rockstar cares about their fans. (especially the PC gamers) It will make you appriceate Mojang MUCH more.

Nope, The colors really help builders, not 5 y/o!! builders like alot of material to work with so nothing is plain

Mojang wants money as well from multi player so ok... I honestly dont care about realms but if they wanted it, let them have it. NOT JEB'S FAULT
