Before reading, keep in mind that I myself am not entirely supportive of this idea. This is just something I'm tossing around to see what you all think, and if no one likes it I'm perfectly okay with that.
I'm sure we all know just how absolutely destructive the enderdragon is when someone spawns it in the overworld. Every block it touches is destroyed, save for obsidian and end stone. For while now, I've felt that something was missing from the boss fight with the enderdragon, and that a sense of urgency might help make it feel more whole.
What if, when you entered the end, the nearby endermen began constructing a portal, one just large enough for the enderdragon to fly through. The other end of the portal leads to the overworld, your home. If you don't defeat the dragon in time, it will make it's way through the finished portal and destroy all there is. Everything you've worked for would be gone. Your home, your tools, everything would be in ruins with that beast running around. You need to win the battle before they build the portal or all is lost.
I don't necessarily think this is a good or bad idea, but I'd like it if you'd entertain the possibility.
This is the worst idea I've seen in a while. The dragon takes practically an hour to kill because you have to make sure that all of the crystals are destroyed, then you have to wait for the dragon to even come close enough to shoot or melee.
considering that at overworld thats no heal for the enderdragon, would make like easier if it wasnt for the fact the dragon tend to fly away from you a lot.
also, the dragon use to fly at high heights, what make it even harder to beat the dragon at the over world and if it destroy your builds, or worst, if it aim for anything non-natural block (what would be wood - logs -, stone, grass, dirty and sand) you would lose all your builds before you had the chance to get close enough to the dragon to do any damage.
I would support that overworld could be infested with ghasts and that they fire at you, not at anything at random or aiming your structures.
also, I would support that villagers could build their own homes and village structures with time as, well, you could try to compete with your own village in size compared to the game village growing in size, what also would be fun to watch the villagers fighting the normal mobs, nether and end invasion.
Interesting, but could be very easily used for a griefer tool.
permissions? files saved weekly? if everything a griefer can use like TNT and other stuff should be removed, Minecraft would have a lot less tools (what also could include pistons and other stuff)
There is no other word to use for this idea but "horrible".
It's not fun for everything you've ever done to be deleted because you didn't shoot enough arrows in a set amount of time. It's just incredibly annoying.
It'd be ten times worse in SMP. The griefing potential is both obvious and enormous.

by what I said, I meant I didnt like the idea of end dragon at overworld, only thing I said is that ghasts could go through and get to overworld and invade as with any other mobs and the villages bulding more village buildings
edit: now that I read, I think his comment about griefer was about the dragon idea not what I said.
The only time I'll see this suggestion as semi decent is if a super hardcore mode is made, because unless, as said above, the portal takes like 2 hours to make, it'd be near impossible and also at too big of a cost for almost every player.

TNT and pistons are firecrackers.
This is a nuclear bomb.
There's a difference.
