Oi, everyone! It's me, Ocean, and I'm here with a new Blog! Today, I'm going a little rogue and doing a Blog about something that I really think a lot of people probably aren't thinking about.

Today's Topic: 1.9 Update!

The MC devs have stated that 1.9 (Far Future Update 1.9+ in the bug tracker) will come out at some point, along with some new features, such as a way for plug-in/mod makers to make commands and register them in a simple way, animations on Entity Models, a new GUI for Command Blocks, and a switch away from fixed-function OpenGL to actual Shaders. Now, that's all fine and dandy, but I'd like to voice my ideas for the 1.9 Update.

One thing I'd like in the game is more things to do. Yes, I know that there's plenty to do in Minecraft, such as make animals breed, own a farm like Sjin from the Yogscast, or even kill the Ender Dragon and Wither to get those two most-sought after items in the game: Dragon Eggs and Nether Stars. But to be quite honest, what's to do after you (technically) finish the game? Nothing, really, because you've done pretty much all there is to do. You could mod your game, and finish those mods, but what do you do after all those are done? You don't really have much, I'd say. I think they should add more Biomes, such a corrupted Biome that has different side effects when you enter it (i.e., giving you negative potion effects, causing you to see things that aren't there, etc), or maybe a Biome that has different little minibosses in different structures, like Twilight Forest. I dunno, just a thought.

Another thing I'd like to see added to the game is more magic stuff. Yes, I know that there magic mods out there such as Thaumcraft and it's add-ons, Ars Magica, and Witchery, but those are more game-changing than some would like. I'm thinking we have wands that we can use in PvP, or maybe even Villagers that would sell you Potions. Or maybe we could make broomsticks like in Witchery (and aren't as crap to control) for transportation or even Teleportation Crystals like in the anime Sword Art Online. Again, these are simply ideas.

The third thing I would like in the next update is possibly some new foods, and possibly some sort of drink, too. Something akin to the Ale in Terraria, a game based off of Minecraft in many aspects, which makes you hit harder, faster, but also decreases your defense. Of course, Brewcraft or the Brewery plug-in can be added to do that, but it's not as Vanilla as I'd like. A system where you could butcher Cows, Sheep, and Pigs would also be quite nice, as well, meaning you could get more food out of an animal instead of wasting your sword durability when killing them. Just a thought for getting more out your animals.

Anyways, hope you all enjoyed reading! Don't forget to Diamond and Favourite if you did, and Subscribe for more Blogs like this one! You're free to put your ideas for mechanics or other things you think they should add to the game, as well. :D

And as always,
Peace, love, and tridents!

I agree. Minecraft needs to be more like Terraria. Also, I can't download mods becuase my computer crashes and im stuck with just boring minecraft with Soartex Fanver for a texture pack .__.
I seriously want SEUS for shaders but my computer hates me so my worlds look so basic -_-

I just want a primative musket and that's it.... because "Gunpowder" is literarily not gunpowder unless there're guns...
