Now I was thinking bringing Herobrine back-to a point. Notch has stated that he would eventually add a goal to the game, and my idea is pretty interesting. Now he has also stated he might add bosses. This might be interesting, but why not make Herobrine one? Maybe have when you beat all the other bosses, Herobrine comes out and starts attacking you. Now Herobrine would obviously have to be very strong to be a boss and have some powerful effect or attack, as well as several more. Maybe he could be able to summon enderdragons in the overworld and you have to fight them as well as him, as long as they are beatable unlike their current state in 1.9.4. He could even be able to fly on them if possible. He might also be able to launch Ghastball-like things or maybe something similar to an energy ball. (And yes, the Mine Wars Video on the digital diamonds inspired me a bit to suggest this) Having him get maybe 250-500 Hearts might make him a pretty strong boss, and maybe you'd start on fire if you get too far away from him. This would make for an epic goal to the game, although it might be very hard to accomplice, and some people might complain that it is not good to bring Herobrine back at all. Tell me what you think.
I think Herobrine would be interesting as nothing more than an auditory and visual phenomenon. The problem is if you make it a mob, people can just find it in the code, spawn it, kill it and complain about it. However, if you implement it in such a way people believe it exists but cannot find it (mostly because they expect it to be a mob), that would be, for me, much better. As additional amusement, just leave a bug in place that causes items (rarely) to go missing. Essentially, using a series of creative rendering techniques, auditory cues and rare abnormalities you could create Herobrine. If this were the case though, all these things would have to be exceptionally rare. To the point the average person would never believe you if you said you had seen it and the rumors could persist the way the always have.
I'm telling you, Herobrine as a mob would ruin it. Just look at the mod. The whole fun and silliness of the idea is that it -could- exist, not that it does.
uhh... notch said like million times, herobrine isnt real, will never be.
herobrine, by the legend is 'notch's dead brother' but notch never had a brother.
and besides, i will never fight him. LOL

Retired StaffEither way, I wouldn't like Herobrine in the game. How did you describe him makes him sound a bit ridiculously OP.
P.S I don't think it will ever happen =\
