That's not the point I'm trying to make. The point is, this game is not the game it used to be and as such, the content being added and the direction it's taking it is making it unrecognizable as the Minecraft it once was (and was originally intended to be).

mc4eva posted a message on Snapshot 16w39a Ready For Testing!Posted in: NewsWhat game is this? This certainly isn't the game I started playing back in beta 1.6 anymore. This game isn't the simple yet satisfying experience of mining and building whatever you wanted that it used to be. This game isn't the directionless sandbox world of infinite possibilities, where you decide your own journey that it used to be. This isn't the Minecraft that it was supposed to be. I feel like this game has completely lost its original direction. I feel like I'm playing in some blocky RPG with more emphasis on potions, combat, and dungeons than on building and creating. I have seen Minecraft grow and change since early 2011 and all I can say is that I'm saddened with what its turned into. Every new update, the devs just seem to add worse examples of already existing mods to the official vanilla. Forest Mansions and Ocean temples with boss battles? Really? If these were mods, I wouldn't even consider downloading them, yet now they're official.
A long time ago this game took a direction down the wrong path from which it hasn't recovered. Back in the day, the game felt satisfyingly complete. Everything in the game had at least some kind of genuine utility and purpose, and dungeons were never anything more than an interesting curiosity to run into while mining. Now every freature just feels empty and useless, and the more attempts at adding content to fill the endless expanse of terrain, the more empty and incomplete the whole game feels. We might as well just start calling minecraft RPGcraft, because that what it feels like its turning into

Wow. you missed a lot. The community was way better back in the day, and the general content of Minecraft had a more complete feel. I felt more content with the game during beta before they started turning minecraft into an rpg-esque game with hundreds of different types of food and mobs and potions.
I started playing in beta 1.6, so I got a taste of the good life.
If I knew how to port forward my router, I would host a small server on my desktop so we could play.

I'm not sure if it is. Jmilan0302 was supposed to be making one (he's just above you in this thread) but that didn't seem to come online
It's a bit of a shame. I would love to play with some people in beta!

I'll play modded with you.
May I ask how old you are?

You need to update your operating system, mate. You're using one from 2011!

Sure thing!

I'm 16, but I often feel out of place and a bit too old around the majority of people on Minecraft servers, even sometimes people my own age. Online I'm usually hanging about in communities with a slightly older audience (18-25) so I feel I kinda fit in better around people who are a bit older. I'm still a huge fan of the game, though. I've been playing since early 2011. I'd love to join a server and play with some people who are slightly older and more mature than the average player as well, but If you honestly consider yourself mature and you're young, I'm perfectly happy playing with you too!
My Skype's [redacted] if anyone's interested. Just send me a request saying you come from the Minecraft Forums
Hope to play with you all!

There's still a lighting glitch under ground and in the nether that makes everything light up like the overworld. You still haven't given me a fix/update on whether this will be changed.
Thanks.

I'm getting really weird lighting underground as if the sun is illuminating everything. This is also happening in the Nether. Is there fix for this.

you got a 980ti too, mate?
