Bedrock to me is optimized for consoles - which yes, it is, but using it on PC is clunky compared to Java. Not a huge fan, but I can cross platform with my friends who have xBoxes, which is cool.

Bedrock runs smoother, but they tend to get new mechanics & blocks months after Java.

Java's fan made maps are all free. Bedrock's almost all cost money.

I really dislike Bedrock's inventory layout. But I suppose if someone played Bedrock first, they'd hate Java's layout.

The mobile version is kind of a disaster for builders. The lack of mouse & keyboard make everything slower & at best you're looking at a 10 inch tablet if not a tiny phone screen.

No clue on console versions.

Java for the win xD

Bedrock simply doesn't have the freedom of java, like there's only 4 or 5 servers, and if you want to play a map?! Well you have to pay a few dollars for that, same for skins too.

I haven't played bedrock but I've seen some gameplay of it and it looks awful in my opinion, I dunno if I'd like it but I'm gonna have to vote Java.. :P

I think everyone's voting Java cause most people browse PMC on a computer, and thus will probably have Minecraft on there :P

I've never played Bedrock but knowing what I've heard, I wouldn't like it at all. So Java, Java all the way.
