- Why to 100,000 people still play this Minecraft version? I play a 12 year old version of minecraft that over 100,000 people have claimed to be the best minecraft version ever. Is this true?

This is not when a fortnite player plays minecraft, if minecraft was controlled by parents, if minecraft gave you life advice, best moments in minecraft history, I rebuilt every biome in hardcore minecraft, how we survived the end of the world or any video like that. This is why do 100,000 people still play this Minecraft version. - เกม
Do you think this is the best minecraft version?
no.
kinda
Oh yeah 1000000000000000000%
The one right before the villages got updated
maybe
They kept spawning by your bed because back then there was something like a 30% chance you would have a nightmare and a mob would wake you up and start attacking you. This was later removed. In short, you got very unlucky
not a 30% it was 80%
It's happened to me a lot lol😂
That’s a interesting if not extremely annoying feature
@@Lumberjack_king
As far as I remember that only happened if you didn't monster proof the area. It makes sense that a monster would attack you if you sleep in the open.
@@snark567 uh no it could happen anywhere
i feel like if minecraft released all the features from 1.1 to 1.20 at once, it would be enough to be a minecraft 2.0

@DayInShinnyArmour Tmfianrec* , you forgot 'a'
if this happened a lot of changes would be negated like ladder collision hitboxes and stuff.
Nah that would be a pure Minecraft of Mojang and the corrupt Minecraft of Microsoft abomination, keep it at 1.1-1.13 or something.
I know Microsoft owned Minecraft from 1.9 onwards, but they didn't mess with it too much until much later.
I feel like I aged 20 years watching this video. I probably played more beta 1.7 and 1.8 than all the other versions of Minecraft combined. "There's nothing to do" was the whole point of Minecraft back then. There was no destination, only infinite possible paths that go on forever. There was less instant gratification, the night was an actual threat, and there was no trading with villagers for the things you need.
Is it better than modern Minecraft? Probably not, but it's the version I loved to play most.
Beta 1 8 is just like a beta version of 1.0
I 100% agree with this. Minecraft was litterally advertised as a sandbox game where you can create whatever you want, but is now a game of speedrunning the ender dragon fight, exploiting game mechanics to get practically infinite items and overpowered gear through villagers (that basically don't break thanks to mending). IMO this version was more true to "survival" than whatever the new version thinks it is.
@@fletty6578go back to sleep grandpa
@@fletty6578 thats a YOU PROBLEM, youre choosing to play it like a speedrunner while ignoring the countless routes you could take. you doing the same thing in every single world doesnt suddenly mean the game isnt a sandbox anymore.
@@fletty6578 nah. You're not forced to engage with any of that. I still play Minecraft the same way I did back in the day. I don't make exploit farms, I don't care about the ender dragon and I've never made a netherite armor. But I'm glad to be able to run, I love the new cave system and the new biomes and mobs are very interesting. Does it feel like I'm playing modded Minecraft? A little bit, but it's good. It's still a sandbox game.
"Tell me you started playing minecraft after 2018 without telling me you started playing minecraft after 2018."
That isn't a bad thing
I started playing in 2012 and I agree with basically everything he said, so no
No one cares you wasted your life playing a block game. Stop bragging about it as if its a accomplishment lmao.
i started playing minecraft in 2013 and much prefer the newer versions of minecraft. still had the same charm to it but so much more opportunities and great for creativity
I also started playing in 2013 or 14 and I was born in 2010 so it I basically grew up with it
For someone who didn't play minecraft for years and started again recently, I've to say that the nights in this video are much closer to what I remember, modern Minecraft seems really tame at night.
I started around 1.5 and stopped for a while at 1.9. Now I feel like I have a few mods going while playing 1.19. I like the current version but I'm also going back and beating the dragon each version starting at 1.0.
Modern Minecraft is easier at night, i remember playing in the PC Gamer Demo edition, and then skipping to the 1.5.2, and the nights were hell, you used to be practically forced to build a house if you didn't wanted your ass to be checked by the mobs.
Now you only need an axe and a shield to be like Terminator
(sorry for bad english)
turn down light
You control the buttons you press.
Until the phantoms start endlessly harassing you while you're fighting other mobs 😂
People call this the best version because those same people started on this version and for them, THIS was Minecraft. No objective to it, just Survive, Build, Mine and Craft. The Adventure update had completely changed how the game played and a lot of people genuinely didn't enjoy the change very much. It's almost a totally different game compared to today. It was a lot simpler and people liked it for that.
Yet Minecraft is still simple today . Just more and more features but I can understand them if they want to stay limited and yet they wish to do more on a very nostalgic version of minecraft...
@@fabiowillot6763 semi simple yeah, you can actually tell what’s going on if you know nothing about minecraft unlike knowing nothing nothing about something like hades
Best version because of OOF
Same thing happens with Elder Scrolls and Call of Duty.
Yessir, this was one of my first versions when I first played in 2011.
The happiness and excitement he felt when he finally found diamonds was probly the same feeling that us players felt when we first play minecraft
Yea because not every structure on the world came with diamonds
The thing I rarely see being mentioned... The game was balanced and brutally difficult. It was a true survival game. Nowadays, you don't even care about your first night. You just spawn, get to a village, loot the shit out of it and thats it. You put a bed in the middle of a jungle at night and survive the night. Back then, you had to work to survive and you couldn't run from mobs that easily nor could you just sleep without a fully lit shelter either.
EDIT: On another note, exploration was better, less over-abondant structures with precious loot all over the place. Less ressources for what you craft and mine overral. It ads up. But the thing, the lack of urgency in the game made it what was really fun. Sprinting when theres stuff easily accessible all over the place made the game boring for me. Like, just drop in a cave and you can find Diamond in less than 5 minutes.
Minecraft is still hard, we just all got used to it, when my mom first played it, it was real hard for her
That's because you were new to it. If you went back to the old game with your current knowledge you'd still fly by.
@@ZazzelTheGamer No. It was harder, less animals, a lot less coal, no villages, big creeper DMG 🎉
@@ttj7811 Nah. You would still fly by.

As is often said: Limitations breed creativity.
its the opposite for me. all the stuff they have now makes it so much more easy for me to be creative
exactly why i draw on mspaint :3
@@luciferisthat's because people like us can't be creative unless someone else was creative first.
"The enemy of art is the absence of limitations."
I know this is trying to sound philosophical and all, but it seriously doesn’t make sense. Old minecraft and new minecraft both allow you to be creative. Yet newer versions of minecraft allow more. The lack of limitations just means people have more potential to do whatever they want, or be creative. People creating massive super computers in minecraft versus making some simple pixel art, which would you say is more creative? I can see if people enjoy the old versions of minecraft even though I prefer the newer ones tenfold, but saying that you have more creativity in the old version is dumb.
The reason mobs spawn on you when you sleep is because old minecraft has a feature called "nightmares"
It's basically preventing it from turning day and spawns a monster on you. Pretty cool touch
Yep and you prevent that by placing a torch next to the bed
@@hugo__ribeirolike a night light
People often don't understand how the Nightmare mechanic works. If a mob is within a certain range and has a valid path to your bed, the game will move that mob (can only be zombie, skeleton or spider) to your bed to attack you. Light level has no effect. You can just sleep indoors or build up 2 or more blocks and place a bed and sleep there. Or alternatively, sleep right as it gets dark enough to sleep before any hostile mobs spawn.
@@Myne1001you can also surround your bed in slabs
@@KagoK yes but that also disables the ability to use it as a spawn point
The encounter with the Ghasts was pretty funny. The fact is that the fire-snowballs did not hit you because they were aiming at the camera, not at you. This becomes evident when you switch to third-person mode and notice that they shoot in the direction of your line of sight.
Its one of the best, exploring was slow and made the world feel bigger, it was scarier and darker at night, the lighting was superior. It felt much more dangerous and immersive. And there was a perfect balance of realism and fantasy. The creeper was an accident but now everything is purposeful with little to no anomalies that werent purposeful.
There is like 0 reason to play, it looks extremely empty. It looks like an indie project.
Finding diamonds in the old versions feels so good.

@edgat yeah, a "bit". Honestly, it is kinda fun
@@Shafd1 Yeah. I enjoy modern Minecraft, but it's nowhere near as enjoyable as 1.7.3 for me. It wasn't hard to get used to and now it holds my longest-lasting survival world. Something about modern Minecraft makes the singleplayer survival experience a lot less fun, but I think that it's a lot better at stuff like PVP, building, and stuff like that.
That was interesting. I think I've never played this version as I joined minecraft later. But It looks like I actually play modern versions as if it was a 1.7.3 gameplay -- I never chase any rare stuff. I dont care about diamonds, enchantments and especially autofarms. I just love to build something cool to live in, to feel immersed into the world as if it was real, just make life comfortable
13:34 WAS THAT THE KEKISTAN FLAG LOL????
You don't have to make entrapments of animals to breed em because they didn't add breeding until late beta 1.8. So you re free to go the straight killing-out spree. Books as items can be crafted but only for decorative use, hence not the need for xp farms or cows. The direction of the game is mainly straightforward at comparison to the other versions where you need to settle down, here you just need to settle out. You 'll just need a home and that's basically it, cause there is no enchantment table and the tallies that come with it, hence no urging need to be disatisfied. And with older terrain generation the exploration part is more exciting and creative.
Also instead of the hunger mechanic where you kill zombies to fill up the meter, zombies dropped feathers back then, so that mean more arrows & stuff.
@@2sheddyok that’s cool and all but it’s too straightforward and I haven’t played that version of minecraft but it sounds like it becomes repetitive after a while
@@Sandstheskeleton regarding repetitiveness, it doesn't get repetitive as long as you keep a creative stroke at it
@@Sandstheskeleton it's a sandbox game. Repetitiveness depends on the players.
breeding was added officially in 1.0 but during the 1.9 prerelease
The minecraft fandom is just kids turning 18 and immediately obsessing about the version of the game they played when they were 8
Exactly
true
i enjoy the nostalgia, i started playing minecraft before 1.8 was even a thing, back when all the block textures were sooo simple and i completely loved it, and i still do. I prefer the old looking style minecraft because of the nostalgia and just how much fun we had with my sister back then
This version feels so familiar yet so different... I spent a lot of time in Alpha 1.2.0 and this reminds me of it a lot. Tough as nails nights (Alpha didn't even have beds), blindingly dark caves, no real direction, infinite, confusing (there were no coordinates in F3 mode) and lonely world and a feeling that some entity, Herobrine or anything else, is always watching you...
The Cave sounds, The C418 Music, The old looks...It is the True Spirit of Minecraft.
No Matter how far this games go, *THIS IS WHERE IT ALL STARTED*
Edit: I accidentally wrote "C148" instead of "C418" and Chuck actually hearted my comment. But now that i realized, I have fixed it back to C418 :D but removed the heart D:

@@gothichamster2626I remember buying it for ~7 to 8€, but the price was always kept fair as far as I know!
When you think about it though, Minecraft has more content than almost every other if not all AAA titles yet it costs less than half the price of them.
1:08 Yes, that’s exactly why we love it. It’s vanilla Minecraft. It’s Minecraft while it was still Minecraft, and not MC RPG. The next version of MC took a complete 180 (pun intended) from everything that 1.7.3 established. It was a completely different game from there onwards.
The best times I’ve had playing this were in this version. Pretty awesome to hear that a large amount of people still go out of there way to play it that way.
In my opinion, here's what 1.7.3 has going for it:
1. It has better terrain than release era generator. I prefer the 1.18+ terrain by far, but Beta and alpha terrain generation was pretty good. Release era terrain generation kinda sucked.
2. It didn't have sprinting. I like sprinting. One thing I don't like though is that mobs were never rebalanced for players who could just sprint around all the time.
3. Healing was not automatic. If you got hit, you had to eat. If you never got hit, you never had to eat. Food was not stackable, so you had to carefully choose what you wanted to bring to eat. There was no "Obviously I'm gonna bring 64 steak and not worry about taking damage."
4. Minecraft was already advanced enough to do interesting things. Pistons existed, as did the Nether.
I think a lot of these problems have been somewhat resolved (not mobs being too slow for a sprinting player though, that has been made worse by pathfinding. Alpha spiders were absolutely lethal and nobody didn't respect them because of their low attack. Modern spiders are a joke).
I will note that, when I say "mobs were never rebalanced." I mostly mean the standard overworld mobs: Zombie, Creeper, Skeleton, and Spider, as well as the Pigzombies. The previous balance was such that:
1. Spiders could straight up outrun you on flat terrain.
2. Creepers were hard to prevent from detonating if you didn't fully commit with a diamond sword and kill them in two hits.
3. Zombies were slow, but like, they still walked inexorably towards you. You couldn't sprint-jump away at double or triple their speed.
4. Skeletons were a lot harder to dodge.
@@petersmythe6462 You also didn't have shields to block the arrows
Facts. Between beta and 1.18 lied a miserable mess of half-baked biomes and monotonous terrain. So glad they finally addressed this issue, even if it doesn't personally match the golden days of beta (imo).

I actually started on this exactly version! Not just Beta 1.7 but specifically Beta 1.7.3. So for me it just boils down to nostalgia. I still remember logging in for the first time and spawning in a snowy tundra near a frozen lake, walking up to a sheep and killing it, and then spamming my left click on a tree and wondering why it wasn't breaking. Fun times.

Apparently they've only just now started dropping food more often 💀
I somewhat disagree with this assessment.
Right, if it were merely the lack of external goals, and not features or balance differences, people would not play Beta 1.7.3. They would play Beta 1.8.1 or whichever Beta 1.9 Pre-release was before the end.
I think the choice of Beta 1.7.3 proves exactly which features they don't like, which are:
1. World gen changes to diverse but formulaic release era terrain.
2. Sprinting and hunger.
3. Every animal dropping food and food stacking.
4. Charge bows instead of machinebows.
Bingo!
3 is kinda connected to the hunger system though
Because you have hunger, a single piece of food taking up a whole slot just ca't work. I just feel the 3rd reason is redundant because that change is part of hunger
Really you could say
1. World gen changes
2. Sprinting
3. Hunger
4. Charge Bows
If we still had old food that just straight up healed you, and every animal dropped food every single time, yeah it would be OP and I'd hate it, but the change was made becuase food itself was changed drastically, and it only makes sense.
@@kaylaa2204 True. Food/Sprinting/Hunger is all very intertwined.
Bro, I’m not even in high school and I remeber that nether. I remeber the happiness I had when I found out it exsisted
the reason the nether looks so bland with nothing to do is because its original purpose is to let the player travel faster. In this old version where there is no sprint and your best form of overworld travel is minecarts, the nether with it’s 8X distance boost is amazing. It has a lot of lava, ghasts and difficult to traverse terrain, but for the added difficulty you get a really good fast way to travel!
I played beta 1.8 to early release many years ago on a free minecraft website, along with 0.30 on some other one. Fast forward to a couple years ago and I finally purchase minecraft and start with 1.15. Despite being used to modern minecraft now, I decided to play the alpha and beta versions again and they feel much more comfortable to play compared to the more recent updates. Ironically, beta 1.8 felt the most foreign to me.
Because beta 1.8 is pretty much beta version of release 1.0
Yeah, B1.8 is basically the weird Hybrid/transitional period.
You know 1.17 and 1.18? It's basically that situation, having the features of 1.18 but not actually being finished/fully implemented
6:04 Bro accidentally opened the emote menu💀
your use of sound effects is literally amazing bro i love it so much made my day
its funny watching a guy be so used to the newer versions of the game he just expects to skip the night every time and completely avoid the challenge, only to be completely and absolutely gobsmacked when the mobs keep knocking him out of his bed and the mobs are actually a challenge because you can't just sprint away from them and on top of that, he can't see anything because he didnt place down torches so he had to brighten up the entire screen so much so that the pause menu buttons are literally glowing white. this was the "worst night of minecraft" he's ever had, because the best night of minecraft is simply no night at all and mobs only serve as a minor inconvenience in the new versions.
i tried 1.7.10 recently with my friend and this is first time i got actual fun in about 2 years. i dont really know why but it became pretty interesting.
after like 200 days we switched to 1.8 because 1.7 didn't have enough features.
so yeah you should absolutely try old versions after new ones. it would be a cool experience (except not being able to sprint)
They're among my favourite versions. It's like an in-between of the old Minecraft and the new one I guess. And I'll say I still can't get used to shields I still sometimes try to right click with my swords lmao
1.7.10 is literally golden age of minecraft mods
1.7.10 is the best version of minecraft.
A lot of pvp players used to play in 1.7.10 because the hits were reduced in 1.8, players would have flew from knockback if you were goot at cps

I remember when I was ~10 I used to watch mod showcases and building tutorials from the relatively early versions of Minecraft. I never played any version before 1.8, but they give me this indescribable feeling of comfort and discovery that current Minecraft does not.
I think this video outlines really well that sprinting made Minecraft massively unfair in the players favour. The game is actually hard when y'know, the mobs can actually keep up with you. Shields are also a massive player advantage and them blocking 100% damage is absolutely ridiculous and should be 66% like it was in 1.9 and 1.10. Lastly, I think the mobs AI is actually better in this version. Aside from a few things like them kinda walking into walls when chasing you, but the way mobs like actually strafe around you and jump can actually make them harder to fight. When I play beta 1.7.3, I get hit by creepers way more because they move while exploding, and also I can't just sprint jump away from them

i personally play the beta releases every few years just to experience them again. its kinda fun struggling through the game trying to remember what is and isn't in the game
This version looks like that is not stressful and you don't felling that you do a path to victory. It looks like a good 6/10. Its ok for people who don't want the modern Minecraft survival road
Minecraft from 12 years ago is the Minecraft I know and love. Hell, when Release 1.0 rolled around, that was already a very different game from what I was used to.
1.7.3 is definitely my favorite version of Minecraft. I'm absolutely obsessed with the Better Than Adventure mod rn, currently it holds my longest-lasting survival world.
if you sleep in a bed in a dark area or theres a dark area within 10(? i think) blocks radius around the bed or it opens up to an area thats dark a mob spawns. theres no "you cannot rest there are monsters nearby" instead it's equivalent is you get attacked
I learnt that the hard way when my dog died because a zombie spawned at my bed. also theres a glitch where if you have double doors, it doesn't count that as blocking outside, so you can only have 1 door if you want to prevent that
I can vouch for this info being legit
Yes, they are typically referred to as nightmares.
This is from the wiki: “Sleeping in an area potentially exposed to monsters can cause players to wake up early, with a skeleton or zombie spawned next to them.”
Never played Minecraft this far back, but damn does it remind me of 1.4.7 where I started. It had more features but was still pretty simple.
i think its just caused by so many people having fond memories of playing that version as a kid when they first started playing minecraft. So many people I know started around that wersion. I remember starting some time before around 1.4 I believe or so and yeah the most memories I have are from around these versions but todays minecraft is objectivelly better. It would be delusional to think that version was a better game
*the reason why beta 1.7.3 was the best version is because it can STILL take 300 mods+ and can actually run just fine*
*and now the best one is minecraft 1.12*
This version of Minecraft was the one where my friend showed me the Single Player Commands and World Edit mods for the first time. Blew me away at the time
9:05 yeah creepers are dead silent. they actually sneak up on you. and even in full diamond armour, you will get one shotted. proper scary
This video makes me feel so old. I remember so much about this version and man it’s still jarring the Minecraft I see now. Like I’m still getting used to the Nether and End being things.
At 5:26 he says this music hits different, however you can still hear it with the most recent version, just not as often since theres new music now
I reverted back around 7 years ago. I just didn’t like how the newer versions felt more complete, and fast-paced. The versions before the adventure update felt more incomplete, and had more constraints and challenges to overcome 1:02 is one of them: No sprint function. The game was simple, and incomplete, the only other constraint aside from the actual gameplay would be your imagination.
The cave sounds are the most scariest thing ever like Jesus Christ, like midnight,home alone, 8 years old, dark room, no phone to call someone
Fun fact about the nether, that nether is actually exactly the same (based on seed) minus biomes, structures, and blocks like magma
I started playing Minecraft in 2012 and my dad reacted literallly the same way you do in this video "its so boring, there isn't nothing to do". My child self back then was like "thats the point!"
can’t speak for everyone but the appeal for old versions of minecraft is most likely the nostalgia trip that long time players get from playing it. i’ve been playing since beta version 1.2_02, where squids, lapis, and dyeable wool were the newest coolest features and beds, shears, wolves, tall grass, and loads of other stuff i could mention, had yet to be added. the lack of stuff to do meant you had to come up with your own goals and projects, which could take a lot of time and effort through which you could derive a simple but strong satisfaction from. if you wanna see what i’m talking about and you can devote your attention to something for long periods of time, then i’d recommend an old let’s play series from a channel called coestar. the series is hundreds of episodes and is pretty slow paced but even in the first 20 or so he’s taking on large scale building projects and if you watch long enough his world gets populated with towns, castles, minecart tracks, redstone contraptions, and loads of other stuff, and it’s really cool to see it all come together. that’s the sort of stuff that comes to mind when i think of old versions of minecraft. it’s why i always make my bed red, and why i always have a resource pack on that changes some of the sound effects to what they were back in the day. it was a simple, magical time that i feel blessed to have experienced.
My ADHD brain aint reading that fam.
the reason people love this version more than the current minecraft is because it is the most nostalgic version
no. we like it because its more of a survival game than modern mc. the lack of sprinting and hunger are a feature, not a bug. modern mc is all about that endgame and building massive farms, you cant find that here. and thats a good thing. the mobs are better balanced, the survival aspects are actually a challenge, the health system is way better, its like a completely different game
Tru
@@waifu_png_pl6854 Now that i read what u said that is very true.
@@waifu_png_pl6854 I FINALLY FOUND AN ACTUAL REASON
@@waifu_png_pl6854 yep, it is the best version for survival, i only find the problem in the content, the content is a very small and some mechanics are annoying
Its feels kinda depressing and funny, when you see reactions of the youtubers on older versions of Minecraft. They kinda like: "Woah, thats so lame and stoopid, who gonna play at this".
Funny. I remember my first launch of Minecraft. I have launched it first on Mojang offical site in demo-version (Java in browser function), and, after this, i had updated from Demo to classic version. I can barely remember, when i saw at TH-cam how funny guys doing stuff like Iron Golem, and i tried to do it (Golem have been added later, and he didn't spawned)
Damn, old version is a gold, and new items just makes game complicated
(Tbh, i didn't yet killed Ender Dragon fair)
I just found your channel and I have used that exact same skin since it released lol, love your channel too btw. Also I still activatly play beta 1.6 (basically) on my Xbox 360 I started playing on version 1.2 beta btw not release.
amazing video! i loved almost every moment of it
Honestly you still can do whatever you want in Minecraft. Sure you're compelled to kill the ender dragon because it gives you access to the elytra and shulker boxes but those are luxuries, not necessities.
I've seen people play this game in a myriad of different ways. Some people are strongly against the concept of automatic farming. Others are really into just building whatever they want and ignoring the rest of the game. I personally enjoy making farms and making builds to contextualize that infrastructure. Like making a big structure to house a farm or other thing, and make it look cool. I have some other weird ways I play. Like, I don't like automatic tree farms. I've used them before and while they're cool, I like the simplicity of the old ones. Just a big platform where you plant your trees. You can even bonemeal them still. Harvesting with the automatic farm is easier, but it doesn't actually change much
Case in point, the game hasn't become any less open ended.
I do think for some people the complexity of the game is overwhelming, and I can see a world where a Minecraft that stayed a completely pure sandbox has its benefits, and could even be more appealing to those who liek simplicity.
I do not agree however that the modern game ever forces you to do things any particular way.
i surprisingly much prefer it, it’s lonely, it’s pretty, and sure it lacks many features but that gives it a sorta charm modern Minecraft could never recreate
I'll tell you why: Because people are blinded by nostalgia, and that's why they think an Overworld and Nether with absolutely nothing in them is better than what we have today.
I had so many mixed emotions in this vid I was laughing bc of the funny memes and I was trying not to cry from the nostalgia then man’s pulled out the underground super Mario bros music which makes it even more nostalgic lol man all the good times I had when I was younger I really do miss em
mine around redstone, iron, coal etc when you find it at Y12. if youll notice. whenever you mine iron you may find coal behind it. when you find diamonds, you'll often find another ore right next to it. I found so many diamonds by going back and mining around the redstone and coal I ignored
15:26 oh Shit, I forgot how big the stair entities were when dropped. Major nostalgia unlocked for me.
i tend to play the pre combat update version of minecraft in general. i guess, because i grew up with 1.2.2 (release) i tend to like the more simple aspect of it.
i just like to mess around. find a home, make that homey and just get resources. try to use the resources, build stuff etc.
i agree that diamonds felt a lot more amazing to find in the old days now its kinda gone because they are too easy to find
I dont wanna be annoying but guys thx for the likes!!
Edit. We got funny number of likes
Remarkable
breh they're harder to find than ever in 1.19 for new players
@@IB0i but you can literally see them in massive caves and all
they seem to spawn very rarely in open caves and only in veins of one :/
@@IB0i yeah I hate tha the veins are like 1 or 2 now :///
this video its epic, the editing gave me an incredible fun, really good job chunk.
i played this version for the first time after your video and, damn i really found that was amazing, the limitation and the bugs give you the chance to see incredible things and have a lot of fun,
i will ask my friends to play this version with me,
its.......Minecraft, what else i have to say.
3:26 OMG I feel the nostalgia of GT4 Gran Turismo Mode background music
damn i remember the old netherrack texture, and is that gran turismo music i hear in the background?
This video was so entertaining to watch thanks for uploading this video
This version looks exactly how the earliest version of MCPE looked and it's great
It's great because it challenges you in ways new Minecraft aids you in. Where you see challenge and struggle as not good, it's the grind that makes getting those things such a reward, it's the way you could envision builds so simply with a fairly easily knowable range of blocks. I do wish old minecraft had running and a few other things from new minecraft, but if that had happened, there's a lot of minor little things that make old minecraft in many ways better. I played since Alpha both singleplayer and multiplayer.
As a young Minecraft player I can confirm if a boat hits a chicken a nuke will go off
