What baffles me the most is that people already don't remember the old villagers. 1.14 got released in 2019 and I have no idea what's wrong with this world that the old villagers are now considered as a weird historical oddity not many people know about. A bunch of stuff from the Beta days? Okay, I can excuse people not knowing that, not everyone started playing Minecraft in 2009-2011. But old villagers? Being considered "extinct"? That is just terrifying. I still remember when they were first added, and they were useless NPC's that all had the name "TESTIFICATE" over their heads.

Something many people don't know is that the earliest versions of Minecraft were something you played in your browser. There was no survival, there was no Steve, just various blocks to place. I think I remember red bricks were the most iconic of that iteration. This was just a guy playing around in Java showing it could do unexpected things.

It’s a wonder that for the creeper explosion they didn’t code the creeper to force update mobs in a radius to flee vs having mobs check for the explosion

[@martinshoosterman]

Now that cats and dogs both have a similar feature. (Cats scaring off all creepers and phantoms, dogs scaring off skeletons) I think they could find an efficient way to reintroduce creepers scaring off hostile mobs if they wanted to. I think part of the reason for not doing this is because of charged creepers and mob heads.

[@orangeluigiPlays]

They should of just made it say "Aw Man"

[@RAndrewNeal]

Every mob would probably need an event listener, which would receive an event sent to it by a creeper broadcasting events to any mob in a radius. So polling is still necessary, but since entities _probably_ already have event listeners, the performance impact would be much smaller than explicitly polling for creepers nearby and then checking if they're about to blow.

A little late to commenting party, but there was one “extinct” structure that I think not too many people remember. On the PlayStation versions up until 1.12/ 1.13, the PS3 and PS4 versions were similar to Java over bedrock. They were their own versions of Minecraft as it derived from some disagreements with Mojang and Sony, then eventually Microsoft and Sony. On the PS3 version of MC, the tutorial world was a castle with a city and other locations, like a mage tower, a cemetery and fortress on the outskirts. It was my favorite tutorial map by far, and one for the memory books!

[@WizardBrandon]

@@RAndrewNeal gold farms have been a thing even before the recipe got removed so I don't think it was that. I think it was in an effort to make them more rare and valuable

[@RAndrewNeal]

@@WizardBrandon Exactly. People were using gold farms to acquire large quantities of an item that makes you near-invulnerable. What was once an expensive recipe before gold farms-when the amount of gold you had was directly proportional to the amount of work you put into getting it-became a cheaply obtainable item. The recipe had to be axed for balance. Obviously, I'm not a developer at Mojang, so I could be wrong. But this is the most logical reason for its removal.

It is truly baffling why they didn't do that, it is such a simple solution

[@paolherledan4917]

The answer is simple : minecraft devs and Notch in particular were not so good at coding. That's why the game is quite buggy in comparison to its simplicity. Notice that they never achieved to implant dynamic and colored lights properly (and they tried).

I wouldn’t mind if they added a new gravel road block where you can make gravel road blocks similar to carpets and place them that way. It would be also aesthetically pleasing to be able to do that in the desert biomes, or even moss/gravel for jungles.

[@kernsanders3973]

The Infinite Dimensions has always felt to me as a amazing feature that was removed. Even though it was just suppose to be a April Fools joke. It was one of the most fun features I played with in a game. I really think they should bring it back. But set it to be a post end dragon end game feature that you can only acquire late into the game from materials you can only mine on End Dimension Islands. You will be surprised some of the amazing dimensions I found that were completely randomly generated. With extreme different biomes in just one single dimension brought me hours of fun exploration. Exploring those worlds were a ton of fun. Especially building bases in some of them like a biome made from Netherite/Diamond Blocks blocks etc

[@Roblocksgaming]

You can still play it.

[@lasercraft32]

Couldn't they easily fix the lag issue by making it so that the creeper exploding is what runs the detection function rather than checking every tick? Like, if a creeper starts exploding, it sends a metaphorical signal to nearby mobs to run away...
