Minecraft Bedrock Is Being RUINED by Parity

Reaching the edge of your Minecraft world might result in a magical blue border or a monstrous monolith Mountain the same is true for one of the best places to make a farm it might work entirely fine or give you an error message entirely dependent on whether you’re playing Java or Bedrock this

Confusion amongst the community is something that Mojang is Keen to fix because the color of shulkers the explosiveness of TNT underwater or even the ability for armor stands to dab should not be dependent on whether you’re playing Minecraft or Minecraft and just in case it sounds like I said

The same thing twice there there is Minecraft with the cross block for the logo and then there is Minecraft with the oh um so Mojang has been attempting to bring parity between the two versions of the game for quite some time now and although in the past they’ve done a

Great job with things like seed parody Or spectator mode and it’s one of the things that is the opposite of what Mojang is now doing because instead of putting careful care into each feature and how they bounce it from one version to the other instead nowadays it seems

Like the easy solution is simply to cut features except never from the job edition of course it’s always the Bedrock Edition which loses serious features lots of players love playing a Windswept Savannah because you’d have this beautiful grass which Mojang removed overnight lots of people would use campfires to set entities on fire

Something the game had never told you was incorrect over five updates of being in there but then this was removed by Mojang putting horses in boats as one of the basic building blocks of a brand new world that you’re trying to explore but then this was removed by Mojang and the

Common Trend you can see recently alongside cropping recipe changes is that Mojang is simply making Bedrock slightly worse to make it match Java in an easier way this is something we must be incredibly cautious of as a community obviously as Bedrock players they are removing Bedrock features in the name of

Parody but also it’s incredibly important that Java players realize the features that they’re missing out on they could have simply added the horse boats to Java and everyone would have been happier they could have simply added this prettier grass to Java and everyone would have been happier the

Same is true potentially for winter mode this could come to Java unless they just remove it from Bedrock the mushrooms in a swamp could come to Java unless it’s removed from bedrock and the same is true for every single feature in this list and there are a lot of them but

It’s important that as a community we all collectively demand that rather than bringing the better version of Minecraft down to make it match the worst one when there’s a feature that’s hard to add instead we make Minecraft better as a whole you can’t reach equality by dragging everyone down you can only

Reach true quality by lifting people up and so that is what we must be aiming for when it comes to Minecraft parody 2. with that said let’s talk about the good things because I don’t want to just point the finger at Mojang and say yeah they’ve never done a good job there are

All sorts of good parity changes they’ve made to bedrock in recent years the world seed parody is a big one Java and Bedrock have the same seeds now which is huge it doesn’t affect structures but it’s a very big Improvement the same is true for banners on Shields this was a

Recent one uh this came to Java in 1.9 and it came to bedrock in 1.20 but I’m happy to see it the same is true for spectator mode death messages on the death screen the ability to use die on signs to change the text color the short

Sneaking is huge as well as the horse bidding traits the transparent Beacon and conduit particle effects and all of them new sounds I’ll give you the full list of everything here there are so many good positive changes that they’ve made and I would love to see it be the

Same going the other direction it is not that common that you get a lot of good features come from Bedrock to Java and I think clearly as someone who Advocates a lot for Minecraft and the community on this channel it’s important that we all say these be good parity changes these

Be improvements to one version of the game rather than negative changes to another These are things that Java players should specifically want you know they should make a good parity change not a bad one and let’s start with the biggest one biome tinted watercolors this is one of my favorite Bedrock exclusive features and I’m honestly not convinced they would add it today if they were

Starting from scratch it’s also quite weird because as well as having this weird red water that you would never realistically see in survival for the never and this purple water for the end we also have the ability to dye water any color because you can put water in a

Cauldron on bedrock and then diet using regular dye in fact this is the way the dye system works there you can’t just put dye straight onto armor that makes no sense compared to dunking your leather clothes in here I think the best way to duplicate this this is a prime

Example where Minecraft says oh dying works like this on Java and like this on Bedrock but the clear solution is allow both platforms to do both this might seem redundant but actually if you look at it the Java system is easier to do but is much more wasteful of diet you

Have to use one piece of dye for every piece of armor whereas on Bedrock you put your same piece of armor and The Cauldron which has been dyed just once meaning one die can go much further using a cauldron meaning that even if both additions had both some players

Would still choose to go the easy way and some players would choose to go the efficient way this is similar to how potions can be placed in cauldrons and to be honest with you this one is kind of weird to me because what is the point

Of a cauldron on Java if it can’t do either of these Bedrock exclusives but that is besides the point next up we have fallen trees these are very much dead trees as you can see they are sideways on the ground this is one of those slightly odd features that

Honestly adds a tiny bit of ambiance to the forest I have to admit that when I use the bedrockify mod recently it did give me a tiny bit of the glimmer of joy that a dead tree could give but it is a weird one but the weird one is dying

Trees why is it that a tree covered in Vines is dying if you covered my house in Vines would my house be dying if you cover me and Vines am I therefore about to die myself these are just the rules I want to get clear just like how uh

Placing blocks is something which I find to be uh something I fear a lot when it comes to the job Edition you have to crouch over the edge and you have to place one like this when I’d much rather just place them out in front like you

Can on Bedrock this is one of those really simple features that makes Minecraft so much more usable because there is so many times where you have to place blocks out in mid-air it is so much easier and honestly the only thing that makes the Java method even somewhat

Redeemable is the fact that they added Swift sneak but then that means that Swift sneak is way more useful on Java where you actually need to crouch a lot and so now by fixing this parity issue you also kind of Nerf one of the enchantments but I guess that’s a fairly

Small issue another one that I think is just kind of odd is the fact that blocks placing speed does not match the player movement speed on Java you can hold down the use button on bedrock and just keep placing as you go along this is a really

Clever thing to line up just like how blocks being placed from further away is just generally handy this is just the sort of feature that is universally good no one has ever complained that they can place blocks from too far away especially in Creative but the next one

Here is one you might not have even known about and it may be as hard to explain so hopefully as you look at this could understand that if you place blocks continually using the use button and then move your Crosshair Direction then they will still place in the same

Direction which is really handy for all sorts of weird controller stuff uh this is something which is just really nice it’s a weird exclusive but as you can see it just makes Minecraft a little bit easier to build in I think buildings should be made as easy as possible

Because you need to place a lot of blocks by hand this is a near given for 99 of players I know there are some things out there that can ease this up but why not make this as easy as possible every single step that can be

Taken to ease the way that building is done on a default uh manual input mechanism is something that Minecraft should be doing on any device in my opinion and the only reason it’s on Bedrock is because it’s from console this is something that should move to

Job Edition just like how I think the way skeleton horses work is kind of odd they do not require a saddle to control them on Bedrock something I really love they don’t have the inventory slot for it so they couldn’t take one even if you wanted to by the way something else that

You could have even if you wanted to ask squids glow squids and dolphins or having baby variants my God these things are all so cute I mean I have to say though baby squids are a bizarre concept because it’s not like you can breed two Squid together instead the baby squid

Just kind of spawns into nothingness I feel as though almost every mob in Minecraft you can make a decent excuse for breeding them and I think rather than you know having to make squid Farms the way we do right now wouldn’t it be cute if you could just have a big body

Of water and breed some squid in it maybe that’s just my dream but yeah I guess we’re kind of getting off track from the main parity point because here’s an easy parity Point chests Hoppers dispensers and droppers cannot be pushed by pistons on Java they can on

Bedrock why not move this feature over it’s actually a really fun reason why it’s to do with the way entities work between versions but that is the sort of parity feature that Minecraft should be thinking about because it would add value to Java Edition players also Snow

Logging is a really weird one but I think would be great snow being affected by gravity as a whole Leaf stunning white during snowfall this is kind of known as winter mode uh that’s a very old Minecraft game mode that’s right difference thing coordinates being displayed on the screen at all times

Bone meal being able to be used on sugarcane grass paths being obtained using silk touch armor stands having arms armor stands having different poses you know this dab is the famous one cake stacking up to 64. potions of Decay desert Wells having doubled the chance to generate in exchange Java gets double

The never fortresses maybe all structures should be made more common on both or at least made the same consistency on both because right now that is a big thing stand between us and see parity also the fishing rod being 3D instead of 2D wet sponges drying after

Some time when placed in a desert Savannah or Badlands by him leads being attached to walls and boats strongholds having a specific increase in chance of generating when under a village cauldrons and a witch hut generating with a potion inside this is another cauldron specific Bedrock feature did

One of the Minecraft Pocket Edition developers just love cauldrons or something but anyway the next one here is if a nether portal generates in mid-air it will generate with never rack around it this is a really cool one a lot of the portals in my very let’s play World actually have these floating

Neverak platforms and it’s one of those features that has a quality of life increase with basically no downside because honestly when you generate a portal in mid-air having to fly back into that or build blocks back into it is so much harder when you don’t have

Just a few never rank blocks around it this is the sort of feature that was made by someone who actually plays Minecraft and although I do think this is massively true to the game I’ll admit the opposite is true for the never reactor core and the glowing obsidian

These could be added to Java just for the sake of new blocks they’re only really available via commands and editor mode on the Bedrock version but still there’s some value in it also drowned and gas lies glowing these are quite recent mob editions so why is that the

Case I’m not too sure but something that should definitely be added is armor stands holding items in their hands book and quills showing two pages at once seriously why do Java players get to see one I could see the argument that oh in theory Android players just don’t have

As much screen space so can only fit one page there but it’s the other way around why is it that Bedrock just has a better book and quill and why is no one complain training given that the keyboard you know input method is the best one for the book and quill it’s so

Confusing just like sheep who don’t retain their wool color when shared if you have a Java sheep better hope you know what color it was before it was shared obviously when you share a sheep some of that’s going to be left over just like this wow look how easily we

Could improve the Java Edition I see it certainly uh but there are some things where I’ll admit it’s a bit more of a blurred Linus where it really adds to one addition or not so for example having dead coral blocks generating coral reefs I don’t really know that

That’s a great Bedrock feature I’ll have to admit that the void having invisible barrier at y minus 104 I’m not sure that it needs to be there it feels natural to me but I’ll admit I don’t love it I’m just really used to it and I admit that

I might get just as easily used the other way and the same thing has to be said for the paper doll that exists in the top left what is this guy and why does he exist why is this such an essential part of the Bedrock experience

I really don’t know why this thing is here and if it’s so important why is it a Bedrock exclusive because it will tell you if you’re flying or you’re running or you’re swimming it can be quite useful in those ways but surely you would know if you’re flying or running

Or sprinting or swimming or whatever else based on just exactly what you’re doing manually I feel like you’d have to be really new to Minecraft and even then it’s a tiny little paper gel so who is this really helping I would love to know if you’ve genuinely found this useful

Because I don’t know that anyone exists I feel like the vast majority of people are just now learning oh yeah there’s a person in the top left because you can play Minecraft for years without noticing this thing so why does it even exist it takes up quite a bit of real

Estate too just like how these pandas and these bamboo are taking up valuable real estate in the jungle I do feel as though having bamboo spawn a little bit more commonly is never a particularly bad thing and I want to quickly mention something fun what in the process of

Making this video one of the features I was going to talk about has been removed from Bedrock the very issue I’m trying to talk about with this video of good features being removed from Bedrock rather than being added to Java literally happened to one of the items

On this list and I’ll mention it real quick I just need to also quickly mentioned that there is brand new merch available at ibxtoycat.store you might have seen the big salmon energy obviously the best Bedrock exclusive but there’s also the that’s future me’s problem which is a great shot and all of

These shirts are deliberately designed to be worn by basically anyone without having to be particularly tied to a YouTuber I don’t want to be one of those people who’s like yeah wear this to specifically show you love me no I really like these designs and I hope you

Will too they come on very high quality t-shirts and we can ship to basically anywhere in the world if you want to get your hands on a high quality t-shirt then ibxtoycat.store is the place to do so also hoodies if you happen to be cold and also mugs that remind you will all

Die someday man don’t I have such a great merch selection just like how Mojang has a great collection of features which they’re painfully removing from Bedrock one by one and the one I just mentioned the one that I really loved and really thought was great was putting buttons on walls and

Fences this would allow walls to go wide in a way that was great and also allowed to do all sorts of decorations it has been removed they should have added this to Java Mojang please I wish you’d watch this video but obviously it hadn’t come

Out of the time but all of the rest of these features are great examples of things that really could be greatly improved the allowed a knight and Border blocks are creative exclusive blocks that are really really fun Bells being run with projectiles are things that you

Could add if you’re if you’re a jar Edition developer and you’re sitting here thinking how do I make the game better any one of these features could be great armor stands stacking to 64. renaming boats and Minecarts displaying the name above them wait is is that

Really true okay this is my renamed boat using the URL of that great merch site and whoa you can put names on boats I don’t know how I didn’t know about this one also man boats are such weird items huh none of this makes any sense to me

But I guess maybe it doesn’t need to although that seems to have broken something huh whoa what have I done I don’t know I really don’t know so yeah did you know Minecraft is filled with all sorts of fun exclusives and bugs just like I don’t I found that by accident right

Now but it is kind of cool huh did you know this also applies to armor stands apparently so if we go in there and we type in armor stand but the American way despite having British English enabled uh and we rename this to uh you know my other favorite thing which is to

Subscribe that’s definitely how you spell it then boom now we have an armor stand which does not have the label oh that’s actually quite weird huh so yeah uh boats being renamed but not armor stands apparently okay that bug gets me thinking clearly the way the bolts work

Is slightly broken because you can play sand in the boat in a way that doesn’t necessarily make sense to anyone outside however if placing it on this last block causes buggy things to happen as you can see it definitely does we should be able to place a bunch of sand blocks there

Even which means we can play say a hundred of these in the air and then oh yeah look at that they’re slowly turning into sand blocks sometimes but also we’ve got so many sand blocks stored in this one place which will all vanish oh the boat keeps it all in the air and

Then we can drop it all down okay I don’t know what just happened but it’s confusing huh look at this what is happening here oh it’s so weird it’s so bizarre well that’s pretty cool huh it’s also pretty cool that you can die shulcus it’s really cool that skeletons will deal

Melee damage when they’re underwater they know they shouldn’t be using their bow also using bone milk on small flower spawns other flowers of the same type this is so handy for getting the dye that you want in particular why is it exclusive why do fishing rods have six

Times higher durable let’s see why do you sometimes spawn of a map if you choose to but there’s no choice for that in Java why is there a separate empty map and locator map and the locator map is the one that you spawn with even though empty maps are the one that you

Crowd by default why is it that baby husks and zombies can ride adult every single mob in the game including Zombies by the way which is absolutely hilarious why is there so many more of these jockeys these all seem like such clear examples of ways you could improve Java

By taking a Bedrock exclusive and before you say to yourself wow so again you’ve said that five times now you’ve said that a billion times now you’ve said that 18 quintillion times you don’t need to say over and over again that a Bedrock exclusive feature should be

Moved to Java rather than removed from bedrock and that’s not my overall stance that’s only my stance for lots of things that are exclusives in the good way you know someone put time and effort into making the game better with exclusives there are Bedrock exclusives that would

Make the game worse and let me share with you those now okay so clouds are tinted red at sunset and sunrise the sky becomes darker when the player is looking directly at the Sun the food mechanics are painful and they just do not work the same way

Healing takes a full minute from node Hearts to all the way over the top of it bed item texture does not use the bed model I really get confused by that one uh the chest and trap chest item textures use the old model that’s right

The model you’ll see in the in the hot bar is different to the model in the game that’s just lazy that’s just something that should be removed as an exclusive Phantom still significantly more damage and all difficulties than they do on Java this is a bad exclusive which you know some Minecraft Bedrock

Developer was seriously hurt when they were younger and they decided to take it out on the entire Community who didn’t vote for the Phantom which Not only was that the majority of players but also even players who want the Phantom have regretted it also players take full

Damage when in a boat meaning when you watch YouTube videos that tell you oh you can just take a boat into a cave you end up dying when you try the same bedrock and finally Coral fans on a wall have one texture paint when they should have two and never fossils are much

Rarer than on Java and I could continue going on with this there’s a lot of features that are probably somewhere in between so never caves that are low down not filled with lava feel a little bit weird crimson and warp Foresters are much less densely populated which means

You can actually walk through them that might make the game easier You could argue there’s less tall grass in plain Savannah jungle Meadow biomes this is a bug but a weird one um and then also there are randomly rotated textures on Clay coaster crying obsidian dirt glowstone Leafs magma blocks nilium

Obsidian sand Sandstone snow block sponges terracotta why are they rotated randomly I don’t know but when you look at my big uh never rack Cube things start to get a bit weird like it just doesn’t look right well I placed that as perfectly normal textures and they’re all rotated just because it’s Bedrock

Also eating a slice of cake makes an eating burp sound ghast Fireballs can destroy chains item frames are blocks instead of entities which I think helps with performance but does lead to some weird things like like not being out of place multiple times on the same block and finally the sharpness and

Sharpenment doesn’t much higher damage than Java because of the lack of combat changes which is really the biggest one here is the combat which is exclusive to bedrock a good or a bad thing it entirely depends on whether you like Jewel welding it entirely depends on

Whether you like the delay and you like the skill that comes from that and it entirely depends on whether you like the Nerf that came with all of the enchantments and Potions around that I’m not here to get a big debate about how combat Works in Minecraft and how it

Should work differently I think there are a lot of changes that Minecraft need to make and I do agree that as a studio it’s very hard to work out when a certain change is good and bad and there are all sorts of new features which do require a lot of testing and I

Understand that there’s a big task being done at Mojang and making new updates but I do think that the one single guiding star they should have when it comes to parity is don’t make one version of the game worse if there is even 10 of the player base who feel like

One of their favorite features is being destroyed don’t destroy that feature if 10 of the players made their base in a Windswept Savannah specifically because they like the grass there don’t remove that feature even if you think it was an accident if 10 of the player base really

Loves putting horses in boats and indeed have been using that as their main way of getting around don’t break people’s existing worlds for the vague notion of parity that is my message to Minecraft developers and my message to the community is it’s very important that we stay active and we stay opinionated in

Praising Mojang when they actually make positive parody changes and that we obviously guide and make our opinions known because I think that a lot of java players genuinely don’t know much about the Battle condition and don’t know about all the features they are missing so hopefully if anyone in your life

Plays Java if that’s you or anyone around you uh please watch this video and if you have a feature request you can go to feedback.minecraft.net or the Minecraft suggestions subreddit and if any of these features are important to you I would encourage you to request them on

Your version of the game we know that Mojang aren’t just going to take one random word of one dude on Twitter but they might take your Collective opinion and that is something we need to do we need to take action on and I hope that this video has been useful for that it

Took a long time to go through every single exclusive and talk about them in that way but I hope you found it useful regardless this is part of my big uh push to make sure Minecraft does a better job in parity and so I hope you’ll enjoy this video subscribe if you

Want to see more about the differences between bedrock and Java I’ve recently turned Java into bed organization so you might enjoy that video but for now thank you and I’ll see you next time good bye foreign
