How Bad Is The Minecraft Villager Rework?

Good Idea

[@JTL1980kind]

Now that I’ve had time to think about it, this is actually good for villagers and the librarians. I’ve spent tons of hours having to put down 30+ beds and lecterns ( or spamming a jobless villager 10 times or so before getting a good non-repeat enchant) and needed to build a giant trading hall before I could finally get all the OP enchants. Now, I go to one village, need to Max out JUST ONE librarian, and I can move onto the next village. Lot less paper and book “grinding”.

[@JTL1980kind]

Also, the enchanting table and anvil XP usage aren’t all that bad if you know how to use them. Watch an online tutorial, and you’ll find out the helmet and boots are the only items that are difficult to max enchant.

[@IHacked__]

The fact that Mojang still has not implemented an anvil fix for the annoying "TOO EXPENSIVE" problem is crazy to me. I seen so many viral videos complaining about it over the years and it just makes no sense to not be able to repair a tool infinitly. As for the villager nerfs, I think the community would be way more accepting of them if they actually gave you the maxed out enchantment as their master trade. Nobody wants to spend hours transporting villagers just to get protection 3, mending aside. If they give us enchanted books that we are forced to combine, at least don't penalize us on the anvil for combining them. Thats my take on it!

[@willowshake023]

They really need to remove the anvil penalty, like seriously

[@blackzerfc]

the way anvil itself work is just dumb, like why not just increasing the cost based on how much enchantments and their levels the tool or armor have instead of the unintuitive system that we have based on how much an item has gone through an anvil

[@Maradnus]

the worst par tis is that in creative it will show up as needing 50 levels to repair and you go ahead and repair it. but in survival.. nope! yscrew you!

[@mariansalam]

Maybe rework mending to instead cap the anvil cost to some 35 levels instead of repairing with exp? This way, no more frustration would arise from the “Too Expensive!” message, and we will get a new resource sink

[@TheFailnaut]

I feel like they looked at Terraria's Journey's End update and thought, "hey, this seems like a great idea". The issue is, in Terraria, you're not only incentivized to build villages in multiple biomes due to NPCs having extra items for sale and/or a huge discount, but they made it possible to visit them all by adding pylons which let you teleport between them freely. Minecraft doesn't give you that. You find multiple villages, you better get used to wasting hours of time hiking between them all.

[@InitiateDee]

At best you can make a system of nether highways that connect between the villages but that's tedious to make and still requires travel in the nether

Traveling there on horseback and making a way to get back are gonna take the longest if we pull up and max out the librarian before bringing him back with us if we go prepared, it’s gonna be a couple weeks in the making but at the end of the day it’s something to do. Totally worth it if u really want all of the enchantments, I think this change is alright for the sake of those willing to do it. Otherwise we’d already have beaten the world we started 3 weeks ago.

@@KwikBR Villagers are very easy to acquire even at the early stages of the game and guarantee success in exchange for the enchantment you need (mending everything else is optional).

I think what makes this change go from an interesting and immersive experience to horrible is how boring and tedious enchantments are to get no matter what you choose to do. You’ll need to visit countless structures if you wanted to only use enchanted books you find, sit bored next to a farm to grind experience to rng some enchantments, mindlessly reroll villagers until you get what you want, or any combination of the 3. Mending and villager changes will all suck because they push players towards sneakier ways of bypassing the normal grind for items. There’s a quote that says it’s easier to prevent piracy by providing better services than the ones people receive from pirates, and I think the same can be said about this. If a less tedious and more engaging way of getting maxed out gear existed, villagers wouldn’t be abused nearly as often and mending would likely not be needed at all.

[@colbyboucher6391]

Someone made a mod called Repair Gems that I enjoy a lot. Just a somewhat expensive item, with tiers like tools, which sits in your inventory and repairs your stuff for you when you use it. But the simpler and better solution (imo) is to make diamonds waaay more durable (they're harder to find than they used to be after all, ignoring villiager BS) and let Netherite be literally unbreakable. It's silly that the be-all end-all extreme endgame gear still doesn't last all that long without Mending.

It’s even worse because level 30 tables are far from particularly useful, and they also don’t drop mending Fix the enchanting system before you try and fix villagers, essentially

Especially when villager breeding is such an absolute mess.

[@TKDB13]

I think it's also worth noting that, while the focus here is on Mending (being of course the most highly-valued book), the similar treatment given to other high-value enchantments is similarly problematic. Especially with the nerf to the maximum level you can get of the leveled enchantments. Players who set up villager trading halls for a full set of enchantments do so primarily because having those librarians drastically cuts down on the grind to get a new set of gear if you die and lose your old set. It's way faster and more XP-efficient to just apply books at an anvil than to get yourself above level 30 and fight with the enchanting table RNG until you get what you need. Much like with the Mending vs. anvil repair issue, if the goal is to encourage players to actually use the enchanting table more they should probably focus on enhancing *that* option, not nerfing the alternative.

[@Sairiui]

This feels like trying to force stores to only sell nearly-expired bread so people will play the RNG every time they just want to make a sandwich. However, the only way players will use an enchanting table is if it lets the player fully choose guaranteed enchantments and levels even if it costs both XP and lapis. I'll add mods or revert to older versions before I play Gacha Minecraft.

[@joshua1188]

They are taking the grindest game and making it so much more grindy. Making one villiager hall already takes way too long, there should be a better way to reroll villiager trades than breaking the block (or using pistons if your playing pocket edition) and they should remove the low level enchantments from villiagers. Instead, they're removing the high level enchantments and increasing the grindyness at least 10 times, considering travel.

[@SuperJosh-rs6kp]

As someone who just made a villager hall I feel this pain. The trades constantly go higher if I havent traded with them and then I have to make them zombie villagers again just to make the prices lower. Getting emeralds aint easy with them.

[@peaceandloveusa6656]

The grind used to be what made the game fun. The problem is speed-running your way to the end-game, then sitting on your thumbs while everything is automated for you, has become so cracked there isn't any reason for meta-players to enjoy the grind itself. Making it harder (or at least less appealing) to exploit the game to the point of it not being fun anymore is a move in the right direction, but a better move would be to remove these exploits all-together. Personally, though, I would rather they add villagers having NBT data telling them what their last trades were *on top of* making it so you cannot have access to end-game enchants until max level, over having it so you have to Google which village even gives you the *potential* of finding the enchantments you are looking for. They could, at the very least, remedy the last part by making it possible to know which village has what without the need for a third-party source. As is, the change misses its mark from any design philosophy.

At the very core of minecraft, its a sandbox game, where you can do anything you want, but it feels like mojang is trying to make it mandatory to explore a sandbox in order to reach the ability to BE a sandbox game where you can do anything you want whenever you want. Instead of being able to do anything, at any time, you are instead forced to waste time traveling/migrating villagers, because if we are honest, next to no one will e v e r go back to any of the villages away from their main home. just poor design in my opinion

[@peaceandloveusa6656]

I agree with what you are saying, but I have to be "that guy" and point out I absolutely entirely re-design and expand every single village I come across, and frequently visit all of them as I expand my territory. Is it necessary? No, just immersive. I don't like having a tree farm for every tree type all in one biome. It just feels boring and wrong. So, every village has it's own functional output (trades and farms), and I travel between them as needed. This may seem like a lot of unnecessary effort for the sake of immersion, but it's not. I simply do without a specific wood type if supplies run out before I feel up to going out for more, and only sell off produce in huge quantities that make it worth the long trip there. I tend not to go back and forth, either, because I have bases all over. I simply play the game in the arrival village until finding cause to go to another village down the line. I found having a single base incredibly boring and repetitive after years of playing the game. Might as well play superflat if you spend all or most of your time in your perfectly sculpted main base.

So how does it make it less sandbox, if the unimportant, but cool, rewards actually take effort to get? I'd also argue that minecraft in survival is not a sandbox game. Its a game with survival elements, sandbox elements and exploration elements, but does not truly belong in any of those categories.

The main things Mojang needs to work on is: -Making exploration more interesting. I mean, they've done that with the destination, but what I mean is the journey. Because exploration not about the destination, it's about the journey. -Anvils, one of the biggest problems with durability. With the "Too Expensive" problem and the fact you have to combine certain items to make the outcome cheaper, anvils are the reason Mending is so relied on. -Speaking of which, maybe Mending should be nerfed itself. It's suppose to help with managing your tool durability, not be a crutch. -Enchantments. I mean, enchantments are cool when you find them around the world, but really, the easiest place to get enchantments, should be at the Enchantment table. The fact that people have to rely on villager trading and finding enchantments around to combine in an anvil for the most reliable way to get max enchantments, instead of the block with the very exact thing in it's name is... sad. -And the biggest problem, the reason why people use Mending as a crutch, feel the need to abuse villager trading to get infinite Mending books, avoid anvils as much as possible, and use other methods of enchanting over literal Enchantment tables is: D U R A B I L I T Y. Clearly, durability is too unfair and punishing when people will snort Mending books up like crack, and durability is the outdate mechanic. And no, durability doesn't need to be removed, it needs a rework. We need to rethink the concept of durability, and make it a fair limitation that doesn't have people scrambling for ways to avoid it.

I think this is the type of change that will make me quit the game tbh. The reason people are grinding for villagers to get all these things, is because that's what they've chosen to do. If people wanted the game to be slower, they could've just chosen to play slower, but it's clear what people actually want. If these changes happen for real, I'm never updating my game.

[@Demopans5990]

Or pushing people to modded MC. Tech mods exist for a very specific reason of automating problems away. Buildcraft was initially constructed around the automation of mining and terraforming. The Thermal series expands on that even further. AE2 revolves around the problem of item storage being terrible past a certain end game scale

A lot of players that would have a better time not having villager farms but will make them anyway though, because a lot of players will optimise the fun out of a game if given the chance, I myself am victim to this a fair bit and honestly I'm all for the new villager system. Other than that though if you want to grind villagers for enchants it shouldn't only take 20 minutes to get god armour, if you want to spend no time (and of that no time, 90% of it is cycling librarians) getting stupidly OP then you might as well just use commands to get the armour

In Bedrock edition, we have to make the trading halls in their respective biomes because for WHATEVER reason, the children can not take the biomes of the parent villagers, unlike Java.

I think they should make the different biome villagers have default trades, rather than being at all rng related. Basically, you can always sell a dessert librarian 25 paper for an emerald and give them 17 for a sharpness 2 book. That way you don't have to lecturn cycle. I also think there should be a small chance of a villager being born into a completely random biome, so it isn't super annoying to hunt down the biome with a village. Also, I think the idea of having the cartographers trade maps to other villages is genius.

[@briarblack7437]

Realistically the villager trade rebalance needs to be paired with an enchanting rebalance. For both the table and the anvil. I actually love the idea of reliably getting certain trades from certain villager varieties. That to me is a good thing. But when the only enchantments you can get from those trades that are max level enchants are the ones with only single level, it means that you have to spend exponentially more xp to get a tool set up. God forbid you're trying to get a sword or pair of boots going. Getting tools shouldn't be a time or resource intensive tasi.

[@wizzzard999]

They need to change anvils and enchantment tables first. Anvils so the price doesnt go up per use, but stays constant and depends on material and number of enchantments, and enchantment tables to be less random, so I wouldn't want to just make a trading hall instead.

[@singinceil]

My view as a basically new player: Just got into minecraft and the amount of fun im having is insane. Still, doing all that for HOURS just to get ONE specific enchantment is absolutely insane. I rather just cheat than waste so much time of my life. Obtaining mending shouldn't be more time consuming and difficult than mining netherite. I am completely okay with having to work towards specific goals in the game and i think that gameplay loop is very fun and rewarding but that should never take such an ridiculous amount of time. The main thing to do in minecraft is being creative, building things and not chase the best possible items for no reason than just having them. Additionally, to beat every possible enemy, it is not required to get a full set of netherite tools+armor with the best possible enchants in the game. Many people seem to think that enchantment is the root cause of the problem and that might be true, still i think enchanting is a fun mechanic but it perhaps shouldn't be as powerfull and "meta determining". After all it is a singleplayer creative/adventure/survival game for me and there is no reason to implement mmo like levels of grinding into this game.

[@pigeonflame9885]

Mending was never supposed to be as easy as just finding a village and harassing a villager. Minecraft implemented this change to give players a reason to go mining/exploring to replenish their items. Making mending require a lot of effort still allows it to exist as an option but removes the idea that its a basic resource

i've got a world in 1.20.1 with a nice trading hall, which is a pain to set up as it is.

The usual for me has always been like this: roaming/exploring till i found several key items in the right quantity, find a desirable location to permanently settle and then kick off the big things. Now i'll just have to skip all that exploring i usually like to do and first find a permanent settlement location... It's just adding grind (finding the right biomes) after grind (no more cheap trades, so more stuff needs to be traded) after grind (finding a village) after grind (getting the right villager linked to the right biome) after grind (removing several enchantments) after grind (making it harder to find (surface) diamonds in e.g. caves) after grind making it way grindier to get stuff upgraded to netherite, after grind yeah no, that's not the direction i'd develop any game in.

[@memmelouskyyt5469]

Of Mojang wanted to fix the mending problem, it was as simple as villagers not being able to trade treasure enchantments, but to equilibrate this change then make it so that you can get mending easier from structures or dungeons. This way players are discouraged from enslaving librarians and are encouraged to explore more. As for the biome dependant trades, it's not a bad idea; however, they have to either remove the villager 50/50 chance, or not take into account biomes that can't generate villages naturally. But that is just my opinion :D

[@Sairiui]

It doesn't change the fact the player will capture the mending librarian. All they're doing is making it more annoying and take longer for them to do it. Still preferable to the RNG of the enchanting table. Like preferring AdBlock over YTpremium. lol

These are the changes they should make: Keep the villager trades how they are now with the books, but make it so you can't refresh a villagers trades. So every villager can have every enchanted book for trade, but you will have to find one that has the one you're looking for. Also taking from one of your ideas of the other videos, if there was something like "the ultimate weapon" where you had to gather all sorts of items to craft the ultimate sword or something, they could make it so each biome specific villager had one of those items.

[@pengwino828]

Mojang somehow managed to nerf villagers without fixing a single thing I had a problem with them xP Why can you hit an anvil too expensive limit? And that problem only gets worse since villagers only give up to level 3 enchants. Why are enchantment tables so time consuming to use when they are so rng based and slow? Why are they making crossbow and trident enchantments so hard to get, those weapons need all the help they can get to be used. This seems like such a hassle to me, moving and managing villagers is probably the least fun I’ve had in minecraft. If they do add this then I guess I’m going back to speedrunning the ender dragon and building an easy enderman farm like dashpum4s for enchants.

You can just cure a zombified villager in the swamp or jungle and cure it to get the villager. Of course that is on the late game side, but it is possible.

There are so many ways to play the game and OP villagers is one that is very common among people with the most hours in this game so this change is going to directly make the game less fun for a lot of people.

Personally, I really hope they change the villagers to make mending and other high- tier enchantments engame loot. If they do so however, I feel they MUST also fix the core issue of durability, repairing and enchanting systems being absolutely awful to deal with. Preferably, enchanting and repairing should be independent systems. Repairing should be easy, and not detrimental to the ability of an item to be enchanted. Similarily, enchanting should not have a detrimental effect on the repairability of an item. If they fix this, I feel like most players would be more accepting of the librarian nerfs. If I were to use the band- aid analogy, I would say Mending is a bandaid players use to fix the gaping wound left by terrible durability/ repair/ enchantment systems. Mojang nerfing mending just rips the bandaid off, and leaves most players to just have to deal with the broken systems, which is why players hate the change.

[@_RedRightHand_]

I feel like a better method would be - 1. Zombie Villagers can only do 1 discount. [Too powerful otherwise.] 2. Make Diamond Armor not cost Diamonds when buying from an Armorer. [Purpose of an Armorer is renewable Diamond Armor.] 3. Add Crossbow and Trident Enchantments to the Librarians. [Should have every trade.] 4. Remove Too Expensive.

Lore here is that they went there to explore but got trapped and eventually zombified. They already have zombie villagers in igloo basements and zombie villages. Why not in other structures??

Fun to enchant in that update and have an actual challenge to maxing out gear, but yeah it was a little busted. Some ideas on protection are; -Nerfing base protection to have diminishing returns while buffing other protections, and rebalancing endgame mob damage values to compensate -Keeping protection the same, and heavily buffing other protection types; this can be direct or indirect, such as... -Level 4 fire protection or multiple pieces of it granting complete immunity to burning -Making fire-based damage more common or threatening in some way, such as making it completely ignore base protection -Projectile protection having a chance to completely deflect projectiles, not only reducing but negating damage -More dangerous projectile attacks in Minecraft (Later on, things like skeletons and pillagers are purely a nuisance and aren't any actual threat) -Explosions don't need any changes, I'm already against their instant-kill nature so a blast protection completely nullifying explosions or reducing up to 95% of their damage instead of the 80% vanilla cap is something I'd definitely support, it'd also serve as a well-needed nerf to Crystal PvP -Magic protection is an enchantment I've seen in mods, and if minecraft had a couple of more armor-ignoring threats, it'd work well as an enchantment -Melee protection I feel like would be a fantastic enchantment to take players out of their base protection comfort zone, giving a boost against other players using melee weapons (but leaving the wearer much more vulnerable to other means of attack) and boosting defense against well known hard-hitters like vindicators and piglin brutes

it is better and cheaper to craft a new tool with diamonds than to repair it with diamonds. a worn out pickaxe takes 4 diamonds to repair, but a new pickaxe only needs 3. afterwards you can combine the tools to repair the original. this will keep your enchantment and save you a diamond. this is not the case for armor tho i think.

Or find hidden artifacts that unlock a new portal to a new world.

4:55 I actually like the 50% villager type. That means I can breed any type anywhere so long as I have 1 of each.

I’m pretty cool with this change… yeah I agree I do like how quick and easy it is to obtain all my necessary enchants but I do believe this system is broken asf… mojang has simply waited TOO LONG to patch it. - My proposition to make it easier to swallow is have the Master trades remain locked but have the other book trades be changeable with the lectern. The all those who aim for Feather Falling, Depth Strider, etc can just get it over with day one. - And people are forgetting one MAJOR WIN that we get with this rebalance the maps lead us to almost EVERY BIOME meaning we don’t have to start with just 1 sapling the trader sells us… those who spawn in the Tundra are gonna find it hella harder to naturally find a Desert. This change make it so 1 our ideal place to build our base and 2 obtain resources are more convenient to find (Mojang also made it so Minekarts and boats can go through portals with entities, making it infinitely easier to transport them!)

I personally think they should take Valve's perspective on things. Valve made Steam with the intention in mind to make it easier than piracy and it's worked so well that it's pretty much the major platform where you buy games now (to the level people call it a monopoly, but it really isn't), so what they should do is add an easier, early game alternative to mending, that way people aren't encouraged to go on 12-24 hour grinds to get mending before they're starting to actually play the game.

I’m confused?I love these changes villagers are currently OP. I have full set of diamond armor and tools enchanted without mining a single diamond. Took me about 3 hours.
