I started this blog because I saw a thread about things people wanted in 1.5. There was 64 pages of posts, so I didn't read hardly any. There might be some ideas similar to those posted in that thread, but I didn't read enough to steal any ideas. If you want to read his thread, here it is. I will keep updating this blog as I think of more great ideas.

Different mobs should be hostile towards each other, but stop fighting when a player gets close. So I could make a giant arena, give pig zombies armor and swords, and spawn a ton of everything else...and fight to the death. It would also make mob grinding easy.

The NPCs should be able to gather resources, build new houses and eventually build big towns/cities. Instead of a village spawning and the villagers milling around, they actually are building, mining, cutting, baking, and other things. I find villages, and whats in the chests is it...nothing new gets there (unless you put it there).

I also think that there should be more spawned buildings, with a higher spawn rate.

There should also be more in the Nether, such as ores. There should be different ores than in the over world, but still similar. The netherrack texture for the default pack needs to change, it hurts my eyes every time i use that texture pack. By the way, the default texture pack, I personally think, should take a lighter tone, such as a more cartoon-ish tone, or have the option of multiple default textures. But that's off track. Again, agreeing with so many people before me, I would like to see more buildings, especially in the Nether. The Nether fortresses are very bland right now with nothing but nether brick and nether fence. There should be more blocks to improve the look of the fortresses, and some building variety.

Lastly, I think there needs to be a crafting guide, which is found in every spawned building or in a bonus chest near where a player spawns. This should be complete with EVERY item (that's craftable) along with it's item ID. It's just annoying looking up a single item ID on the internet when I could just look in a book. This could also be on the menu when a player presses ESC.

So as of Minecraft 1.4.6, there are fireworks. Awesome. Along these lines, more "fire stuff" should be added, such as flamethrowers (like a bow but with fire charges). Furnaces should have a different GUI, a little bit like the anvil's GUI, so someone could smelt two ingots together (ex: 1 iron ingot + 1 gold ingot = Increased durability). I'm not sure if this should be made, but have a fire sword (crafted with blaze powder all around a diamond or gold sword, either would work.

I know this is very long, but thank you for reading! :D Please Diamond, Heart, and Subscribe!

1) Mobs hostile toward each other - Nice idea, but would generate lots of lag, and I don't think they want to make anything EASY, especially not mob grinding.
2) Active NPC's - I like this. The only problem is, again, it would generate tons of lag.
3) More spawned buildings - Agreed; Higher spawn rate - I think the point of Minecraft is to build stuff yourself and to explore...maybe twice the current spawn rate, but not too much.
4) More Nether stuff - Yes, yes, yes
5) Crafting guide - Well correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the original idea of Minecraft crafting was that you had to figure out how to arrange the materials on the crafting grid by yourself...Unless you got lazy and looked it up online.

1)yes...it would probly be laggy...but maybe they could "detect" you from a farther distance
2)yeh...true about the lag...but not too active...like uber cities everywhere
3)i agree with you, except more buildings, but maybe just a little bit higher spawn rate
4)its just boring right now
5)true, but if you want to be lazy, then you can look in you crafting guide
