SHOCKING: The Real Reason Minecraft Lost Its Charm

Every single day I see more and more people saying the exact same thing I miss the old Minecraft the old Minecraft was better bring back the old Minecraft I sometimes even fall into this myself thinking about the Golden Age of Minecraft back in Alpha Beta And even early release versions as well

Something about it back then just seemed better maybe it’s because we’re just getting older Nostalgia is starting to take its hold or maybe there’s something completely different at play here well yes with age Nostalgia will play a big part in how we view media from our childhoods I do believe that there is

Something else causing this as well let’s take a dive into why Minecraft is losing its charm before we dive in I just wanted to say that this video took a really long time to make and I’m working on making better more professional videos for you guys if you truly enjoy this one please

Consider subscribing and hitting the like button it would mean the world all right let’s jump into the video if you look at a screenshot of current day Minecraft and Minecraft Alpha side by side the game is pretty much unrecognizable when older players like myself think of what made the old

Versions better we often think straight to the old textures the grass was greener the stone was stonier heck even the trees looked better now I just want to make something very very clear better is subjective I’m sure there are some people watching who prefer the new more toned down colors of modern-day

Minecraft but something about the old highly saturated textures was just eye-catching now yes I will admit Alpha textures were a bit much but if we check out the textures of beta all the way to release 1.0 I think think this is where Peak Minecraft textures came into play it was

Still bright and playful without being a bit of an eyesore something about the modern Minecraft textures that I don’t think a lot of people touch on is that they just feel well kind of generic kind of boring when you look at a photo of the game today you think oh yeah it’s

Minecraft obviously but when you look at a photo of an older version like beta you think that is Minecraft the cartoony look of the older versions is a main reason that a lot of us older players fell in love with the game and it would be awesome to see the look of

Minecraft return to this General Vibe sometime in the future I’m not saying bring back the oversaturated grass and trees of alpha I’m just saying maybe rework the textures a little bit make them a little bit less smooth a little bit more choppy usually choppy Graphics

In video games isn’t a good thing but in older versions of Minecraft craft it’s what gave the game part of its original charm for those of you who do want older Textures in the modern day well moing probably won’t Implement them into the game just by default there are tons of

Resource packs available to download and I highly recommend checking some of them out not only does the game look different it also sounds different the simple audio of walking on Sand is different the noise when you take damage is different and the old school Ultra satisfying sound of opening and closing

Doors was replaced by generic sound as well mobs have different audio weather has different audio and the biggest one of them all the music is different why would Mojang change the sounds well as the game gets older some of the sounds might seem outdated but to Classic

Players this could not be further from the truth I don’t think players would care at all if the audio is never changed just huge huge example of Mojang trying to fix something that was never broken just like the textures why change the audio if players never had a problem

With it in the first place now I do understand that the older music is still in the game but it is rare for it to even come on nowadays the game music in modern-day Minecraft is horrible most of it is not even listenable and I find myself turning down the music slider

Whenever a newer song comes on I don’t get it the old music from Alpha and beta was relaxing and it was one of my favorite things about the game it’s the music playing in the background of this very video now let me quickly switch the music to some of the modern stuff Mojang

Has put into the Game See what I mean mojing this time you didn’t fix something that wasn’t broken you broke something that was actual Perfection variety wasn’t even an issue the old music had great variety so this was just pointless please for the sanity of all Minecraft fans remove the awful toned deaf music in the modern versions

Of the game volume Alpha and beta was perfectly fine no not perfectly fine it was Perfection absolute perfection at the very least let us disable the new music okay I’m now going to talk about the main reason I myself got into Minecraft in the first place the game

Was just so darn easy to pick up the number of blocks was limited the number of Final Bosses was Zero there were only like four hostile mobs and wheat was the only way to breed animals but the game was still Limitless I hope you guys can

Kind of see where I’m going with this one in Minecraft Beta there was only a small selection of blocks to choose from you had Cobblestone you had only one type of wood and well yes more variety of blocks is always good I think it kind of made Minecraft disconnect from a

Major selling point it used to have it was simple it also for players to be more creative I do acknowledge that modern-day Minecraft allows for some amazing High detail High realism builds but that was never the point of Minecraft the game was a simple survival sandbox game and while it is still a

Survival sandbox game it is a lot more complicated to play making features like the crafting guide essential which should have never been added in the first place all right let’s get to the big issue I understand that different coding languages were used for Java Edition and Bedrock Edition and that it is very

Difficult to allow crossplay between versions but there should not be more than one Minecraft version for computers the original Minecraft was Java Edition dating back to 2009 but for some reason moing now markets Bedrock Edition as the main version of Minecraft I totally get allows players to play the game on other

Devices like Xbox and mobile but there’s a very simple solution to restore the charm of the game with this just Rebrand Bedrock Edition why call it Bedrock why not just call it Minecraft if they want to make it very clear to bedrock players that it is different than the original

Game maybe call it console edition or call the mobile version Pocket Edition again calling the console Port of the game the official version just seems disingenuous to longtime players and the original version on PC and mac and to make things worse they decided to Rebrand the original version 2 calling

It Java Edition Mojang please just call the game Minecraft it is the original version it has been around for almost 15 years now just call it Minecraft there is no need to slap Java Edition on the home screen I have had friends who want to get into Java Edition they get a PC

To play on and when they buy the game mojing prompts them to download Bedrock I don’t understand the reason that PC has Bedrock Edition other than the fact that it allows for crossplatform gameplay but it just seems like a lazy way to convert what would be Java

Players to bedrock which by the way is full of microtransactions minecoins should not exist also just a quick note bedrock and Java come as a bundle on PC now but the fact that the main version is bedrock just doesn’t seem right to me Minecraft

Is in a bit of a strange spot right now and has been for a while there are many players who are frustrated with Mojang and the direction they have been taking the game but real quick let’s take a step back for a moment Minecraft is still a fantastic game regardless of

Different textures weird version and complexity it is still Minecraft I still play the game all the time and for those players who don’t like the new versions mojing actually allows you to play old versions directly in the Minecraft launcher moing all I ask all the community asks of you is at the very

Least please change the desktop icon back to the grass block CJ 991 is now signing off
