Remember the old days? You know when you couldn't regenerate health? Or when opening a chest or door sounded like they were recorded with a phone? But when your food choice varied from either steak or pork, when killing a skeleton wouldn't result in yet another broken bow? Better yet when the max height was 128... when it got expanded the first thing I did was make, uh, this thing;

Or when looking at a Endermen wouldn't sound like a airplane crashing that killed many? When the only boss was so boring? Brewing was limited? Cocoa beans were sacred? Dogs were the only pet? Trees grew instantly. There was barely any biomes. No jungles. Boats were b*tches. Fastest travel was foot. Trees were picky where they grew. Lighting glitch loved you. MODS WEREN'T HATED! TEXTURE PACKS WERE MODS! PMC DIDN'T EXIST! YOU COULDN'T GET WORLDS! NO PLUGINS! NO ORGANIZED CREATIVE INVENTORY! NOTCH WAS IN CHARGE!
NO ONE LIKED MINECRAFT...
A lot has changed now hasn't it. A LOT. Meh, I'm not angry, just here is a list of stuff that has changed. Add anything below that was after 1.8.1 Beta.
