Minecraft is dying, it's not dead yet. This can be said for any game.

Quote from LegoShokwave123

When Mojang shows a feature that is as close to being complete as the Prismarine and Sea Lantern seem to be, it is extremely rare for it not to be added. The only exception is when they outright state that it is not guaranteed to be added (Rabbits, for example).

What you are referring to, despite the fact it is an entirely different situation, is when they mention a possible future feature, but don't implement it at all until much later.

The hype train continues on its path unhindered.

REASONS

NOTES

SUGGESTIONS ADDED

• Calm1.ogg (Alias Minecraft from Alpha Volume) should be the only Menu music and the reasons are easy: First, because nobody stays in the menu for ever just to listen to the new tracks. And second, End.ogg (Alias The End from Beta Volume) music creates a reference to this track. So playing Calm1.ogg in Menu will create a callback to End.ogg track.
• Add C418's BandCamp and website to the Minecraft Menu, Website and Store for more visibility.
• Bring back Notch’s song Calm4.ogg into the game as Boss Battle music.
• Add more atmosphere sounds (Winds, waterfalls, birds, cave sounds, night sounds (criquets, owls, gloomy wind sounds, etc.)
• Add a wind sound loop at high level on mountain.
• Add a wind sound loop when in Blizzard/Snow weather.

The Idea:
I thought how to make in-game ores better, we could add Ore metadata on an actual block. This would work as followed: Block; as smooth stone spawns and it's given a metadata of an ore block that would normally spawn at it's place. Imagine a cluster of andesite and the world generation would cause a single diamond ore to spawn at the surface. instead of replacing the block with an ore block, the andesite block would spawn with diamond ore metadata.

Examples:
Textures:

(image example- used iron)

In game:
Change applied:


Current ores:


Just to clarify:
"Ores in every block" isn't literal. The point is to change the mechanics of how ores work so that they don't need a new kind of block for every ore type. Instead the ore is stored as metadata for the block. A possible extension of this is the ability to put ore in ANY block, however chances are ores would still be restricted to stone blocks like stone, granite, diorite, and andesite, instead of just in stone only.

One could do an entire creative page just for ores (or rather just for ores in stone, granite, diorite, and andesite)... or they could add a shift right click function to the pickaxe in creative mode that allows the player to cycle through different ore values (or other metadata for other kinds of blocks), or leave the creative inventory menu as is and just modify the appropriate console commands to account for ore in blocks other than bland grey stone.
(thanks Unclevertitle for this clarification)

How ores will be handled for mining:
Regarding mining these modified blocks the stuff is very simple:
Mining speed: Block.
Drop and tool tier requirements: Ore.
Iron, gold ores will be dropped as raw non-block items.

Example:

Dirt with coal metadata

- Coal ore can be mined with a wooden pickaxe upwards.

- Preferred tool for the dirt block is a shovel.

Result

When you use a Wooden shovel (or better), the block will break at a normal speed and it would yield only the coal chunk.

Otherwise it would break and nothing would drop.

Obsidian with Iron ore metadata (note that obsidian is generated after the world so, no obsidian-infused ore would exist naturally).

- Iron ore can be mined with a Stone pickaxe upwards.

- Preferred tool for the obsidian block is a diamond pickaxe.

When you use a Stone pickaxe (or better), the block will break at a normal speed and it would yield only the raw iron chunk.

Otherwise it would break and nothing would drop. (note: when you use a stone pick, the mining speed would be equal to that of a normal obsidian block)

1) Being 100% player pushed with no other speed beside the forward key Half a heart, Only knocked to next adjacent block.

2) Going the speed as if you were on a straight line of Powered rails: 2 Hearts, Knocked two blocks away.

3) Manually Uphill: No damage or knockback, minecart is instead pushed back.

4) Max speed downhill: 7 Hearts, 5 block knockback

5) Falling Minecart (with nothing inside): 9.5 Hearts, 5 block knockback. (4.5 Hearts if wearing a Helmet)

6) Falling Minecart (With passenger or Furnace/Chest): 10 Hearts, 5 Block Knockback (Only 5 Hearts if Mob/Player is wearing a Helmet).



-When a Minecart hits a mob/player (Regardless of what mob/player) it will lose 10% of its speed.

- When two Minecarts hit each other they will both bounce off each other (as they do now)

- When killed by a Minecart the death message would be (Player) was hit by a speeding Minecart.

-When pushed into a Minecarts path by a Player or mob the death message would be (Player) was pushed into a speeding Minecart by (Killer)

-When killed by a falling Minecart the death message would be (Player) was crushed by a falling Minecart.

-When pushed into a falling Minecart the message would be (Player) was pushed under a falling Minecart by (Killer)

-Minecarts no longer can be pushed when on an unpowered Powered Rail.

-There will be a gamerule called /cartDamage (True/false) that toggles Minecart damage.

-You only take damage if you are in the next block the Minecart will enter (That means pushing from the back/pushing mobs in from the back will not hurt you or them)

-When you damage a wolf or pigman via Minecart, they will NOT agro towards you (unless already mad of course). Also, zombies will NOT summon other zombies when damaged by Minecart.
