The BEST Part of Every Minecraft Update (1.0-1.20)

[@OmicronGaming]

TIMESTAMPS IN THE DESCRIPTION FAQ: Q: Weren't the new caves added in 1.18, not 1.17? A: Yeah, ima be honest, I kinda fumbled on that one, instead of "Best of 1.17 and 1.18", it was more like "Best of Caves" and "Best of Cliffs". The snapshots in between the two updates made it hard to determine which addition belonged to which update. Q: What factors are being considered to choose the best "thing"? A: Depends honestly, some of them are chosen because they have a lot of relevance in speedrunning/beating the game, others are just iconic features that make Minecraft what it is, and some of them are just because "I like it". There's really no ranking here, it's just that out of the features added in each of these updates, I think that these are the ones that stand out to me in a good way

14:27 while I do think that the shipwrecks are cool. I feel like the best thing in the 1.13 uptade was (By a lot) the ability to swim, it made you actually want to explore the ocen since you could move fowards at a speed faster than 1 block per minute

He forgot that in 1.13 we have a swimming animation. We couldn't swim fast before 1.13 and it was a pain. But the update was very helpful. Also you get to go through a 1 block gap!

1.13 is my favourite update. I always thought the Minecraft oceans were boring and I always wished Mojang would update them. 1.8 kinda did that but 1.13 just made the game more lively in a way no other update could’ve done

@anime_vibes__. i think the old combat system was broken and 1.9 was a great update becasue it required more skill and you need to choose the best weapon for each senario and trade offs of attack speed vs attack damage made combat more interesting and 1.9 shields were better becasue they didnt eliminate all damge unlike now, and the off hand has been a great addition - at least on java - and made the game much harder and more interesting to play. like, in 1.8 and prior there's like no skill at all, all that really matters is how much cps you can manage and how well you are at tracking objects. but that's just my opinion.

[@torbaz5930]

makes the game too easy i play 1.2.5 where the max enchant level is 50 and it eats all your levels, really makes it feel like you earned that enchanted diamond sword and makes it more valuable instead of something you grind out by day 2

Servers struggled to run 1.13 and 1.14, and even when forge caught up to it, there were hardly any mods made between 1.12 and 1.15 because the lag was unbearable. 1.15 wasn't meant to be a content update, it was meant to make up for mojang rewriting the game for better performance.

Also, because deepslate isn’t instamined with haste 2, mining in post 1.18 is just unpleasant

I feel like armor stands shoulda definitely won 1.8 because of how much they did for people who worked with command blocks and custom maps.

As an honorable mention for Release 1.3 (1.3.1 in specific), it added the creative menu we all know and love today, with life saving categories instead of the jumbled mess of 1.2 and prior.

Geodes formed, were commonly spotted in the ocean due to lack of space underground, and the moss family of blocks could only be bonemealed after you found some in a shipwreck or mineshaft. Axolotls were added too…(There was a bug that they spawned in the end dimension if water was present, it was hilarious) Basically 1.17 added 70% of any features that didn’t involve terrain generation in the sm caves and cliffs update.

Hi Omicron! I noticed that you really seemed to hate 1.15, but imo, it was a neccesary update because of the PERFORMANCE issues. 1.13 is infamous of being laggy on low-end devices without Optifine, and not only did 1.15 fix that, it also fixed several bugs, like the Alt+F4 dupe. This is something that only a little part of the community knows about, and I hope you change your view on The Buzzy Bees update.

[@thecowboyfromcali]

As someone who played since before Minecraft had its name, I can say with assurance that out of everything, the most memorable update for me was the 1.5 hopper. Many survival servers had just basic protection of doors and chests, disallowing certain building radiuses to be destroyed by anyone who wasn't the host. But one KEY feature went so overlooked when the hopper dropped. every single chest that was locked for me, could have a hopper placed under it and drained entirely. I went to every single server I frequented as a kid, and drained EVERYONE of their resources that I could find. All the way till I drained an admin on my main server, while he was online. So many good memories, and being the richest person on one of the biggest servers at the time, was phenomenal.

I can’t believe you said honey blocks aren’t too significant 😂 they change red stone forever edit: just to clarify I respect everyone’s opinion I just found it hilarious that a video about what features have the most impact managed to absolutely side line the most impactful feature in the update with a minor golem mechanic 😂 of course there were a few other features that he chose that I didn’t agree with but that was just because he would talk about how later updates would give the highlighted feature more use rather than focusing on the original feature in the initial update, however it’s just a minor gripe and I’m sure would’ve taken a lot more time to research and fact check to make the video.

These videos make me feel so old. I mean it felt like a year ago when I first started playing Minecraft myself in Beta 1.5. Back then a classmate sent me the exe and we just played for hours and days nonstop next to each other. Then when they added LAN mode in 1.3 it was the best thing. My Brother and I played SO MUCH together. It was incredible. And here we are. 12 years after I first touched Minecraft myself and 13 years after I saw my first Minecraft lets play.

i would like to argue that the honey block was actually pretty big, at least to people who do redstone. it opened up so many possibilities!

[@Meesecrxt]

I agree with all of them except 1.13 1.14 1.16. While shipwrecks were amazing 1.13 also added one of the best features ever swimming. For 1.14 I feel like you completely overlooked this part and that’s… the much needed texture update which polished and gave all the textures a fresh new look. Which is my second favourite update right behind 1.16. And while pigstep is the best music disc to ever touch minecraft it’s more of a meme then an actual helpful thing which is why I give this to piglins making Minecraft way more lively in the nether with their human like actions and there “amazing” trades. Great video keep up the good work!

[@ink9839]

I remember playing Minecraft when I was like 6 and it just had one type of wood, one bed colour, and when you made a world in creative and put stuff in your chest, it would disappear in survival…it really changed a lot

[@TheAussieBrickMan]

The bees polinating crops and the honey blocks functions in contraptions makes it a very good update imo. But outside of the farming benefits the honey block stuff is failry niche but powerful As a person who builds very aesthetically, can't remember which update. Could have been 1.16, adding having regular chest next to regular chests was a game changer. More compact storage and not having to have a block gap was nice.

[@mauvepicard9979]

I genuinely don't understand why people don't like the 1.9 combat update's Attack Delay. That mechanic is just SO much more interesting than just mindless spamming of left click! The fact that a stone axe does as much damage as a diamond sword doesn't even bother me since the delay is so damn long! Swords STILL have an advantage at the same material level, and shields only make that nuance deeper. I love the combat update, no exceptions

[@sabenator2770]

This should give you a general idea of why people love 1.8 combat, if you actually want to understand the other sides point of view. this is not meant to start an argument, i play 1.19 for all my SMPs, and 1.8.9 for chill fun pvp. People primarily don't like the attack delay because it made multiplayer pvp gamemodes less fun. The appeal of 1.8 combat was that it was simple enough that anyone could pick it up quickly, but skilled players could still decimate their opponents. part of the magic was that you could get on with friends of varying skill levels and all have fun. as long as a new player could sprint towards a target and click, they could deal damage and contribute to a team effort, and let the more skilled player take on 2 opponents, with one already weakened. With current combat mechanics, a new player will be unable to deal damage to an opponent that is more skilled, if they simply have a shield. And now the only way for a skilled player to win against 2 players with basic game knowledge is for the skilled player to run away, occasionally trying to surprise their opponents by turning around and landing a single hit, which is needless to say, not very fun to play against. This made 1.8 combat more fun in team minigames, because you could play with anyone who owned the game, and still be competent. This is why there are few popular 1.9+ minigame servers in java edition (bedrock edition has no hit delay, and has many large popular minigame servers). Mojang made 1.9 combat for survival worlds, and fighting mobs. and it does that much better than anything else we have seen. And this explains the rise of many large public SMPs (lifesteal). also, both versions have respectable 1v1 pvp servers. Also, a major difference is the playstyle that each version promotes. 1.8 combat was much faster paced, because if your opponent misses a swing, you only have a fraction of a second until they can attack again, which means you have to constantly be on your toes, never letting your guard down. In contrast, in 1.9 combat, if your oppenent misses a swing, you know you have a 0.625-1 second pause in combat, which makes the combat much slower paced. Also, with the addition of shields, a player can stand still and not take damage, allowing for a much slower playstyle. In 1.8, if you stand still, you WILL die. the combat was just much faster paced. Additionally, 1.8 combat was not just spam click based. it was very much movement based. a player clicking 2 cps can do the same damage as a player clicking 20, if they have good movement. 1.8 skill was based much more on how you moved, and how you gave knockback. To be successful, you needed to actively strafe and sprint reset, and know when to jump crit safely when they wont hit you, move backwards to dodge their hits, or use a rod/egg/bow to neutralize the opponents momentum and gain the initiative. The timing in 1.8 combat was much more fluid and dynamic over the course of a fight. In contrast, 1.9 combat is much more based on a rigid timing, and watching for gaps in your opponents defense. both require immense amounts of skill to master, but 1.8 combat is much more fluid and fast paced. Overall, people liked 1.8 combat because it was more fun in a multiplayer minigame scenario, much faster paced, and easy to learn but difficult to master. And that is why i play newer versions for SMPs, but whenever i want to play with my friends and have fun, i hop on hypixel. now PERSONALLY i just think it should be a gamerule to toggle between. /gamerule doAttackCooldown (why can't we just have this mojang?!!!)

[@Sprigatitto740]

For someone who doesn't like 1.8 PVP, they would say it's just mindless spam clicking. And for people who don't like the 1.9 combat system, they would just say that it's just slow and boring. But even though I like the 1.9+ combat system more, here is my unbiased POV and I'll list both the PROs and CONs of both. 1.8 PVP - Pros - It's fast paced - You can block - It's simpler 1.8 PVP CONs - It's less open to casuals - If you're not a fast enough clicker then you won't do as well - You can't hold items in your other hand 1.9 PROs - Cooldown makes hits more satisfying - It makes PVE actually fun - You can hold things like food and buckets in your off hand 1.9 CONs - Tipped arrows are stupid - Shields can be seen as OP due to them deflecting all damage (I'll finish this later, I have to reboot my pc)

[@willbunnell889]

In 1.16 there’s one feature that rivals Pigstep as the best feature in that update! They FINALLY updated the Netherrack Texture!

[@SrsBismuth]

Beacons are great and all but I'm surprised they were chosen over command blocks, which were also introduced in 1.4. Command blocks were revolutionary for mapmaking and huge for the game in general. Also, for 1.13, arguably a bigger feature for the game overall would be either the new swimming mechanics or bubble columns.
