I've added some extra suggestions so you might want to read this after watching the video. You’re missing the point of minecraft is the most common criticism this video has received, so I thought it'd be worth discussing that now. Here's my slightly updated take.
Minecraft is a creative platform. Via multiplayer and creative modes, players are capable of creating their own fun. This is a credit to minecraft’s sandbox, but I cannot critique the game itself when the individual player has the control. That’s up to you, and your mileage may vary.
I don't want to limit Minecraft to just survival mode, but that is the base game, that's the game that the devs design.
A lot of people have commented saying that they're happy to play survival soley to build cool stuff and that to them is the point of Minecraft. Well, I actually kind of agree. Let me put it this way. The point of minecraft is to use the sandbox to unleash your creativity. So would you not agree it’s important or good for the game to present situations in which your creativity is incited? Would you not therefore agree that the game should mechanically encourage creative solutions. This is what I tried to say with a lot of the video. I think it’s where the game falls short. And if you’re capable of making survival fun and engaging for yourself entirely on your creative urges, that’s great. But wouldn't you agree it should work on its game design so more people could find survival fun and engaging?
Here's a few suggestions. We stick with Mojang's conquest progression in survival mode, and add new things, dimensions especially that bring a serious challenge. I like the aether for this. But the portal would be more challenging to build than the Nether portal. We want mechanical incentive to build BUT for that to be optional so purely creative players aren't bothered. We're also going to fix the current imbalances, add some more interesting biomes, and expand the underground.
Next, we create a new mode. Survival +. In Survival +, winter is coming. This is a suggestion I got from Lachlan in the comment section. Winter will come in a number of days, and when it does, you will face challenges. Firstly, beds do not work. Farms will die on the outside, food mobs will die. Torches on the outside will burn out. Hordes of mobs will come from the mists, and they will try to break into your house. It's up to your creativity to build something that will defend you from the winter. Again, this is a separate mode form standard survival so everyone is satisfied.
Couldn't agree more, unless someone wants to get into the complexity of redstone, it feels difficult to really go further the build urself up a good farm, a nice house and maybe a few more buildings and then that's kinda it( atleast for the casual player). Many of the bricks in games can be ugly or lack use within a design perspective. Although the game has gotten significantly better with it's block choices especially with the colored wools, colored concrete and various wood types; Also I hate every one of their rug designs :p. But I also feel like a hardcore mode would be good for the people who want a challenge and as a way to slow down their progression. Perhaps an enemy that can spawn in caves even it has torches all over the place, and perhaps even a temperature gauge so u have to keep warm in the cold climates, and you can't sustain yourself with just off 1 food. It could fill your hunger but if u keep eating the same thing you get hungry faster. And for the real hardcore people if you die you lose everything you had on you.
@@superbelo You mean.... like hardcore mode that already exists where if you die you lose the world basically? 1 life, 1 chance.
yes and no. While I would appreciate more build focused things (I would love a progression quest of sorts where as you help a village build itself up, you start to unlock the ability to create in game blueprints that both showed you some of those "tutorial" style of buildings, creating an 3d outline to guide you, but also let you create a "blue print" table that allowed you to create your own designs before you even constructed the building. We already have scaffolding and i think this would be the next step.), I understand that forcing said mechanics may put the truly creative off their game. Take GoodTimesWIthScar, one of the most creative minecraft youtubers I know, who created a legitimate chain of hand made volcanic islands in survivle multiplayer, i feel those tools may stifle people like him.
@@tommydude6735 I'm thinking something more like island survival games, where body temp matter, u can get sick, heat stroke, frost bite, some games you need to keep proteins, carbs, and fats up not just eat 1 thing and ur good. A lot of those games have similar concepts to Minecraft but the building isn't as crazy
As long as peaceful is offered by the game, the first night and every subsequent nights "challenge" is not avoided its optional. If everyone uses the easiest option why don't they do this. 10:34, Minecraft doesn't need to become more like Terraria, as the later is a action sandbox game that lets you build, and the former is a building sandbox game that has fighting. Mods exist for both games and let you refine them closer to what you individually want, but the base game don't need to be the same or even all that similar. I would argue that while Terraria encourages conquest, Minecraft encourages exploration. Terraria forces you to upgrade gear through looting and mining, to fight stronger things. Minecraft lets you do whatever you want regardless of the goal.
In a way, Minecraft is "the dark souls of" games, in how little it holds your hands, it gives you vast empty world, and a day to get your surroundings before night and through trial and hard work, you develop, you improve, you risk more and gain more, you go to new heights, stopping not at The End, not when the game says you're done, but when you look on the world as the being you've become, and can think "That is all... for now"
12:12, beacons are a momentum to your progress, and large pile of wealth reaching into the sky. On multiplayer they are a sign of status and superiority, and in single player they are a reminder of what you have achieved and have yet to still do. They aren't meant as a easy thing but a challenge to overcome though time and persistence. And instant mine is pretty nice.
The underwater monuments don't only offer gold, they offer sponge, and an exclusive block set. End cities offering both flight and an easy way to transport items makes it crucial the longer you play, letting you decide how much loot to gain from how long you want to spend. Mansion probably should have better loot and pyramids be made a bit harder, but they are less massive quest you undertake and more so, just cool things you go and explore when you're out. And all of this "conquest progression" is just one path you can take. Think of it like the main quest in skyrim, yeah it moves everything along, but you only really do it when you need to, and the real mean'n'potatoes is what happens when you step off the main path.
13:45, This is the wrong mindset, Minecraft is more akin to a toy than traditional game, in that its not what the developers tell you you to do, its what YOU want to do. Minecraft is a practically infinite world, you can't expect the devs to fill that all the way up, so your imagination has to fill in the rest, if you can't do that, then unmodded minecraft just isn't for you in the same way text adventures aren't for some people.
15:09, Maybe but their different games. This is really stupid coming from someone in games media, so let me see if I can explain this. The Terraria world is 5120.5 meters long and 1463 meters tall, this is all space in a large world. Space and the surface take up about 27% of the world while the underground through underworld takes up almost 73% of the world. Now lets look at Minecraft with a total unmodded build height of 256 meters, and an insignificant 3,600,000 KILOmeters. As you point out, the underground in Minecraft is 64 meters, or the bottom quarter of the world while there is still just 691,200,000 cubic kilometers of space above ground. Does more space really need to be added down? Also without beacons which which you also seem to to dumbfounded by, any sort of movement underground is slow and a bit random if you follow caves. Now back to Terraria, in which caves are far easier to find and travel through, and that direction of travel is almost always down. Terraria has well developed caves because the general direction of the game is down, this isn't the case with Minecraft, Minecraft you explore out, over the world not beneath it. Mining is a respite from this a way to break up the the rest of the gameplay, a way to relax mindlessly or a small challenge needed to be over come to continue on with what you want to do.
15:30 lightening round: 1, Mojang's structures have never been the best or most interesting, underground ones are simply harder to find than above ground ones. 2/3/4, no argument there, 5, what about players who don't want more environmental hazards and enjoy the game as a more peaceful relaxing game. Also Diamonds aren't the best thing in the game, as enchanted iron can outperform unenchanted diamonds, and potions can be more useful than armor.
17:00, A new mining challenge might be nice, be you are very wrong when you say every challenge is combat related. Building a better base isn't, building bigger structures isn't, making complex redstone isn't, building an economy on a server isn't, exploring to the world boarder isn't, building more optimized farms isn't, spending time trading isn't, simply thriving in your world can be 100% peaceful.
20:20, the bottom line is you don't seem to understand minecraft or mods, mods do far more than you give them credit for in minecraft, just off the top of my head, chisels and bits enhances building, tinkers forger enhances mining fairly similar to what you suggest, and twilight forest adds not only a whole new dimension but also well done"conquest" gameplay. Minecraft isn't terraria, its minecraft. Its a world in which you live, sure you can go to the nether, find a stronghold, go to the end, kill the enderdragon, kill the wither, and then turn off the game. But if you didn't enjoy that that's on you, you didn't take the game to its limits, and you didn't come close to yours, you're not just some "chosen one" your and goddamn god, the world is yours to shape in whatever image you want, go out and claim it.
Sorry for the essay, the biggest issue its sounds like to me isn't that minecraft has problems, its that its a game that's just not for you. You sorta hit it on the head at the end, its a creative outlet, not some grand story your living through and it doesn't need to be. Mojang may or may not know what they want to do, but they haven't made a game, they've made a world and if you can see the beauty in that simplicity, you should go back to your more structured games with explosions, it sounds like you'd have more fun.

"Titanium should be as strong as diamond but slow you down." Titanium is specifically known for its low density. Tungsten would make much more sense for this.
Titanium is one of the strongest materials for a given weight, being tied with bone in strength to weight ratios, so yes, Titanium is definitely strong despite not being as dense as steel
Also Titanium is extremely dense, just not as dense as heavy metals
@@theshermantanker7043 Tungsten is best used as AP rounds anyways.
@@stuglife5514 Yeah, or maybe depleted uranium I dunno. Isn't AP no longer used though? From what I hear militaries now just use completely solid shot Sabot rounds
@@theshermantanker7043 Yea modern armed militaries use APFSDS, some of the less modern ones still use APCR
Tungsten doesn't have the same ring, and titanium is more iconic.
Besides, in a game where one person can carry hundreds of hundreds of tons of gold with no sweat and diamond, a famously not-tough mineral, is the toughest, density accuracy isn't the first thing on the collective mind.
The cave and nether updates have addressed most of this, I appreciate how they’ve listened to the community that made them so strong to begin with.

Nether update:

Yeah, but I highly doubt that the first gold you are going to get is in an ocean monument. Even then you don't even need that much gold, so it's overkill for a problem that doesn't exist.
Or use gold for powered rails? armor for decoration? anything?
@@gandalfmagzorzy8753 Yes you can use gold for all of those things, but it is more efficient to just mine for gold instead of clearing out an ocean monument. Maybe if there was much much more gold it would be worth it, but mining is just more efficient.
@@Peter-xm3ol True but imo its still worth it for the sponges at least when you plan to do anything with water. Still I didn't bother finding it on any world I played so far so yeah its rather bad reward.
“Diamonds always have to be the rarest of ores”
Sad emerald noises.
I think its because not only emeralds can be found by mining you can easily trade them with villagers in there dopey af trades....24 wheat for an emerald cheers I will just get all that wheat from your little farm there and trade it with you...the vilalger plants more wheat etc etc... diamonds are rareer imho
Emeralds, if you ignore some of the super easy trades with villagers, are rarer than diamonds in the sense that they only spawn in one biome. But in that biome they are reasonably common.
literally when he said diamonds have to be rarest i paused the video, looked out the window and thought, uh oh buster.
emeralds are still useless except for trading and maybe making a beacon, and a majority of players dont even trade in the first place

8:34 Building something like that back in the day hit different
for some reason the building gave me nostalgia when I saw that
Note about the Ocean Temple's:
The loot isn't the gold blocks. The REAL loot is the Sponge, which gives you an extremely powerfull option of water manipulation.
Gold is barely usefull in anything but sponges are easily one of the best building tools since you can clear a big chunk of water anywhere you want to build or to simply have weird chunk of air underwater
Fair, but I still don't think it's good enough. Sponges might be useful, but that's only if I want to be build something underwater, and there's not much reason to do that for most players.
Also used to be the only way to get sea lanterns, but that's changed now
When it first came out at least you got all the gold for an enchanted golden apple.
@@Whitelight I think the point is if you need the sponge for anything then you should raid the water temple

Everyone: *wants cave update*
Mojang: "How about another combat update?"
A combat update IS needed, but not urgently. There is no doubt in that. Post 1.8.9, Minecraft PvP became boring and dull, not giving the same adrenaline it used to. Regeneration items are too strong. Damage invulnerability frames are too long. You can get my point.
in my opinion combat update could potentailly mean they're making the mobs stronger which could enhance the survival experience
Flamingpaper not everyone wants a cave update. The amount of people who want it compared to the total community is extremely small.
i'd like some harder enemies (rarer also) for all dimensions tbh

"Titanium could be as strong as diamond but slows you down".
Despite its foreboding name titanium is actually a strong _lightweight_ metal, maybe titanium armor could be up there with diamond but you would take increased knockback?
The disadvantage on that isn't harsh enough. Good idea though. Perhaps a concussive effect when hit to balance the protective quality?
@@Whitelight, I feel what really needs to happen is a nerf to iron. You hit the nail on the head, you can easily beat everything minecraft has to offer with mildly enchanted iron gear. Titanium could have iron's old statistics.
honestly, it's not iron thats neads to be nerfed, its chainmail that needs to be buffed. the armor rating is about right in perspective of everything else, but so impossible to obtain that i either never come across it, or by the time i find even a piece of it im wearing gear far better than it. It needs to be significantly easier to obtain (which could easily be done with a crafting recipe, something mojang has for some reason, never done) and maybe have iron take a hit in its spawn rates. the extreme effort to get it with the low payoff in armor rating makes me forget constantly that it even exists because i never consider it as a viable option in a playthrough. its a perfect idea, a balance to the game that already exists, if only it was actually possible to get at low level.
Less durability?

There is one mistake, people make when talking about this topic. They want to tell what 'kind of a game' Minecraft is. You say, it's survival. Others say mining, exploration, sandbox, building, fighting and so on...
The truth is - it's all of them. And this is what makes it so hard to develop for. By changing a single element of the game (you always do, even by adding content) you change all its aspects - and this is why there will always be players complaining about the updates.
More cosmetic blocks? Nah, I'd like a new sword. New structures? I don't care. I want bluestone. And so on...
Yes, especially in the takeover phase by Microsoft, Minecraft has been lagging updates but for the past 2 years, it became better. Every major update since then has be declared the new 'best'.
Although I personally agree with you and Minecraft lacks survival elements a LOT, we can't just go and say that this is what Minecraft needs to become 'great again'. It's time and a lot of careful work, Mojang ist definitely willing to do.
The nether update (1.16.) with the introduction of netherite show the braveness of 'killing' some top merchandise for game quality. I really welcome this decision and hope for the best.
If you have read so far, you seem interested in the topic and probably have an interesting standpoint. Tell me about it :D
Constructive criticism is very welcome!
Yeah I recently come back to the game after some very disappointing updates mojang made under Microsoft (1.10 and 1.12) and I was extremely overwhelmed by the amount of content that was in the game, new swim mechanics, bubble columns, new villager mechanics and especially the new nether but unlike the other updates I mentioned above I was actually impressed it was like learning minecraft all over again. These new updates have filled my heart with hope that mojang is paying attention to the stuff that they should be paying attention to, the work maybe slow but they are definitely in the right direction.
Especially with the introduction of netherite. I have seen a lot of hate from older audience that netherite is not minecrafty but this really shows that mojang is confident enough that they are ready to take some major steps towards their game because there's a reason why game studios mostly never changes their core gameplay elements unless they have a very good reason to do so.
I agree with this. I am someone who loves the exploration and adventure aspect of Minecraft. Getting better gear, hunting down bosses, new dimensions. I live for that stuff
However I am not everyone. I know people who like taking their time. Building, making farms, redstone machines, etc. While I do enjoy that stuff as well, it's not what I enjoy about the game
Minecraft is one of the biggest games on the planet. It set the world in fire for a decade. It got this way because Minecraft is not for you or me, but everyone
I hope I didn't ramble on too much. I'd love a new update that expands the game with new structures, weapons, and a dimension, but each update should have something that adds things to expand what people enjoy
What people don't know, is that yes, it has a lot of possibilities but notch didn't even wanted to had survival to the game. It was a good a idea but keep the technicalities of the game in and add all of those things is hard for Mojang.
they always forget that theres more to minecraft then just survival. servers are a thing, and in my opinion, are many times more entertaining then survival
He didnt say its survival. He said it can be used creatively as well.
I am really glad to see minecraft working exactly on the issues mentioned here. First the nether and netherite that took "rarest material" crown from diamond and now we're getting the caves and cliffs updates with more depth and more danger.
MC fans: C'mon you have the resources of Microsoft, you can make the cave update!
Mojang: B E E S
Terraria fans: The game is fine but a bossbar would be cool.
ReLogic: over 800+ new items, new bosses, new armor sets, new weapons, new biomes, more pets, and dolphins.
And yes, we're also gonna add the bossbar.

Ok. Those 520 something days of developpement didn't seem to yield a lot. It's because Mojang was rewritting / restructuring massive chunks of their kinda clumsy code, something very tedious and mostly not noticeable from the end user perspective. This rewrite made the next round of development way faster and more efficient. That's why 1.13 and 1.14 had so much added is so little time.
Well that helps put things into perspective. I'm glad it made things more efficient. But they didn't stop the technical difficulties with 1.13 and 1.14, its super hard for servers and stuff which is really annoying
You know, when a game skyrockets the way Minecraft did, waiting for that long for ANY reason is not okay, and isn't excusable. Certainly not with the money they were making.
Mátyás Fodor yeah it is...? Most games make you pay for updates, I don’t blame mojang for taking a long time
I agree. But the more stuff you add to a game / program / app, the more ressources it takes on the hardware side. Especially a game like Minecraft, where everything is in a single tick-loop ran on mostly one single thread. And the hardware manufacturers don't focus on single thread right now. In a sense, Minecraft is a game for the future.

I remember I attempted to do the doors strategy and it didn't work for me I must be using a different edition of minecraft where they got rid of that feature
hjnjd only java has that
3 years later, and this video is still relevant, maybe even more so.
- We got a cave update, but other than making the caves look somewhat different, it still added no new depth to the game.
- Diamonds are easier to find while exploring which is good, as strip mining was boring. But diamonds are no longer the rarest resource, netherite is, and what is the best way to find netherite? Strip mining.
- The world depth was doubled, and yet for no reason. The caves look the same no matter how deep you are.
- Structures which are fun to explore the first time, get repetitive real quick. Villages, temples, bastions, all of these look the same in every world, every time, which takes away from the players building their own structures, and makes exploration boring.
- After the cave update, it seems like we're back to just getting a couple new mobs and blocks a year, which is leading to people losing interest once again.
- Sleeping and phantoms are still the same, and instead of listening to the community, Mojang makes fun of them by literally joking about how much everyone hates them.
- Mob votes only add a single new mob despite modders being able to add all three in a couple hours.
- The wither is still useless, 10 years after being added.
I actually don't mind Minecraft the way it is too much. Sure, it can be frustrating that features are added and changed at a glacial pace but then all you have to do is play a modpack. Actually, now that I think about it, if Minecraft updated too often modders would have a hellish time keeping their mods up to date.
@@darkpal1339 That’s actually a good point. Back in the day you always had to downgrade if you wanted mods cause new versions would come out every month. Nowadays you can find a decent selection for the current version
my point isnt contradicting yours and video's, but i just want to estimate how hard is it to keep balance (and arguably half of even later major additions are balanced poorly for competent players).
but how to change minecraft in current state for it to "challenge" survival skills? game is too far into these "do whatever you want", so mojang (while not rewriting whole game for 10 years):
can't really downgrade these op items that make game way easier, it will sit community even more than 1.9, can't really harden them
can't really add new Harder mobs because mobs mustn't have active building/destroying abilities so if they add one (warden for instance) it gets really easy to abuse in "lategame". new dungeons - same - just because player can mine and build, dungeon is useless (worth 10-20 minutes of mining) or op, almost never they can treat fair challenge (yet again because of building).
most of criticisms to survival (at least which i've thought off) are just pure easiness off accomplishing endgame, killing wither, elytra etc. it's easy mostly for players who completed game multiple times (or spent equivalent time in game), but this dedicated fanbase is also very split, and it's hard to satisfy more than half of them at once with huge updates. how much survival players use lighting blocks, creative players use swords, anybody uses beetroot or berrys? most of the time, if something gets added, it gets op (might replace old item) or it gets natural (another type of wood - not useful not useless) or gets underpowered compared to old items.
i hope my point wasn't completely unclear.
@@licemere9899 I can see your point. Knowing the minecraft community, any change or addition needs to be extremely well thought out. Otherwise, people would be able to find 100 ways to abuse something like berries for world domination, instead of the usual 10 or 20 ways.

Terraria is a progression game with sandbox elements, Minecraft is a sandbox game with progression elements.
Agreed to the point but Minecraft survival can have infintite progression if you are determined enough.
source:Etho's lab mincraft let's plays
@@MachStarry of course, but in terraria progression plays a more central role and the core game is fairly linear though with some optional order and boss skips for advanced players, then it also has some sandbox elements, but much is locked behind the normal progression of the game. Minecraft doesn't have linear progression like that and you can shoot straight towards any goal you choose, so it's primarily a sandbox type game.
I think we're talking about different kinds of progression :) Terraria is full of walls, primarily bosses, that you must defeat to unlock content that is mandatory for nearly any goal you have in mind. In minecraft you can start your projects in almost any order without such obstacles.

They just keep adding cosmetics and decoration every update. Case in points: Copper, Amethyst, The scarce Deep Dark Loot that's actually unique (being the death compass thing), the underground biomes themselves, and most of 1.19 and 1.20 if not all have not served any serious changes to the game. They are all just "existing to look pretty" features, rather than "Wow this actually does a thing that can inspire me to do more, greater things"

Sponges aren't a very good reward for fighting your way through an entire dungeon and killing three minibosses, not to mention how obsolete they are now with the existence of the Conduit. Okay, Beacons encourage you to settle down. And? You're already heavily encouraged to do that seeing as you can't really move farms around or more than a chestful of stuff very freely.

YES I just found it a month ago and I love it.
To be fair, in the old versions of minecraft you could just dig a hole, jump in and then cover it up the first night
Exactly you would have to wait in the hole for the whole night
You could probably still do this
But then you'd have nothing to do for five minutes, and anyone with a brain would spend those five minutes mining instead, as the devs want you to.
Not being a building enthusiast myself, my first day of Minecraft always resembled: find the nearest natural cave opening to spawn, put a torch in it, block the entrance, tada I'm home now, start caving.
I pretty much never used beds in the first place and "survival" wasn't ever really a challenge outside of marathon caving runs. I have to admit most of this video sounded kinda...comical, in that respect. Sure, people built extravagantly defended fortress homes! ...that they didn't need. There was nothing in the game that required those defenses to defend against. You could literally put a fence around your house, put torches inside the fence, and you're done, you've defended your house. Anything past that isn't a survival defense mechanism; it's just style points for people who enjoy building those kinds of defenses. Which you can still do now, and is still just as unnecessary as it was then.
But that's the point of new things.
"Diamonds *always* have to be the rarest resource."
Emeralds: Am I a joke to you?
honestly emeralds are not hard to get because of villagers, and even in mining there's not much point in going for them, as they're only used for trading (and technically beacons, if you really want to go that painful, grindy, horrid extra mile just to have an emerald block beacon pyramid.)
