Can't argue! Take the all the time you need. Do you have any public websites (like Deviant Art) that you post your artwork to? I'd like to see more of your work if you do
Is this an attempt to use optifine on 1.9? Do you have a texture pack installed? Is this at a close distance, or far distance only? Also, are graphic card drivers up to date?
1.9 is definitely better in my opinion. It's not a spam click fest anymore, and it makes mobs actually more challenging. It also adds that much more to the sense of realism.
