I know you all are tired of "TEH GAME R RUIN3D." This is not one of those threads.
This is a call out to the players of the game. This isn't funny I am serious.
Minecraft is broken, and has become BORING because of it.
How is it broken? Well first off, I just fought a skeleton, who did...HALF a heart of damage, IF he hit me. I left him shoot 5 times. He hit me twice. I didn't Move, I just stood, as he ran around me like a mad man.
This is horrible. The mobs are a negitive threat level to me. Even with leather armor. Honestly I just can walk around at night, and creeprs, zombies, and skeletons? Please, Armor makes you a god. And YES I am on hard difficulty.
This is a serious problem. The game has ZERO challenge. I used to have fear of meeting a mob, back in Alpha and Beta.
Alpha/Beta
Walking through a tunnel, suddenly I hear that old loud arrow sound. "****!" I've quickly find cover and try to carefully locate the source of the arrows, once I'd found him, I'd carefully try to get him out of the darkness to take him down. Because since skeletons used to do 2 hearts of damage, WITH ARMOR, I could walk away missing 4 hearts. If I just ran up, another mob could easily turn this into a game of "I'm ****ed".
Current Release (1.00)
Walking through a tunnel, I hear the weak phuf sound of an arrow, I see the skeleton, I kill him. I walk away with perhaps half a heart missing if he even hit me.
Horrible. The game, as it is now, is completely ruined. UNTIL we balance the mobs and armor.
Armor should NOT make you a god. It should, as it used to be, help you IF you make the right choices.
I need to know how to contact Jeb/Notch/Mojang
Because this is a serious issue that needs to be top priority. It depresses me how much no one seems to notice or care how broken and challenge-less the game is as of now. I mean, how much easier is normal compared to Hard Difficulty? Because playing on Hard feels like I am playing on Very Easy.

1. If it were made more difficult, then there would be constant threads about it being too hard.
2. There are almost certainly mods which will add more challenge to the game.
3. Jeb can do the most good by focusing on the localization, mod API, and serious game-breaking bugs first.

You must be joking. Too hard? I'm not asking for the game to be extreme. I am asking for the game to be balanced.
Normal difficulty should be like 15% harder than it is now. And Hard difficult should be even harder. Nothing like one hit KO's. No silly.
The game is challenge-less right now, ZERO difficulty. THIS is a game-breaking bug dude.
A lot of my friends stopped playing, complaining that it was just boring now. And THIS is why.
I haven't died in since 1.0 came out.

I completely agree. MC has become far too easy. All armor needs a slight nerf, and all mobs need a slight damage buff as well as maybe a health buff. The mobs should be physically better than you in every way.
The only thing that you should make you better than a mob is your intelligence as a player.
Hopefully, the new AI dev Mojang is getting will improve the mobs.
I agree, it should be harder. And Notch himself said that he'd rather have it too hard than too easy. They will probably add stuff to make it harder, and have. Such as the hunger bar, which makes the game harder and more interesting. Have you seen how many threads complain about it being too hard? All you have to do is lore some pigs in your cage with wheat and kill 'em once in awhile. I know it doesn't matter because all the threads on here complain about everything in Minecraft.
But for now, there's always hardcore mode if you want more challenge.

Can the young ones not...Idk...PLAY on easy? For all you know, they may be some hard core kids. Obviously if they had the cash and time to go to minecon
Get. A. Mod. If they don't exist, petition for one.
The game is not ruined, FFS.
Yes it is, I can barely play it anymore it's so depressingly easy. This should be considered a game breaking bug/unbalance. Like I said, most of my friends don't want to play any more since it's just too easy.

Well, I agree, hard difficulty IS easy with armour and stuff. There should be a harder difficulty, but it's important to remember that you can make the game more challenging yourself, by not wearing armor, using limited quality swords/equipment, and so on. Also, if you really want a challenge, try Vechs super hostile maps.
EDIT:
for the people who say "but then other people would whine about it being too hard", you need to understand that the game is easy on its hardest difficulty, if it was made harder, the easier difficulties would still be easy.
What is with your selective hearing? Stop whining and make the game more difficult for YOURSELF.
Accept the fact that you're a minority and solve your own god damn problem.
I cannot believe your attitude.
I cannot believe YOUR attitude, the game is clearly broken by being unbalanced and too easy. And you cannot see this? Accept the fact that you appear to be blind to what makes a game good.
People, I am trying to SAVE Minecraft. For goodness sakes.
GearsDisraeli, look, go back and play 1.2 for an hour or 2. And Tell me it's NOT harder.

Yes but that doesn't fix the issue of the base game is unbalanced.And honestly I am not so much the minority in this thread. it's 4 vs 1.
Myself and 3 others like the idea, and you do not. Math.

Play Minecraft with no weapons, so fun, although I haven't really noticed mobs being nerfed, I was kind of surprised I could take a couple endermen punches and a creeper explosion to the back with no armor on though.

I'll bet there are difficulty mods or SOMETHING like that.

YES
Not with that kind of attitude, come on man. This is a game breaking bug, It needs to be fixed, not modded.
"The oceans of minecraft are vast and nearly endless... and we just have a floating little box to traverse across them..." - doctorseaweed2
There are. Its in server.properties:
I am playing on Hard already. And it's very easy compared to hard in alpha/beta

75% li'l tiny children. I do not think the game is going to be made any tougher.
Then Minecraft is ruined.

That was never said. Have you played alpha? If you did, you'll know what I mean, if not, you need to play it for a while.
