    I like the current because you can regenerate heath, enchant, and brew. Plus I prefer having a goal to accomplish like beating the ender dragon.

    I like the idea of a goal, but the Ender Dragon simply isn't difficult enough. Collecting the Ender Pearls is more difficult than shooting the crystals and the Ender Dragon with an enchanted bow, and that isn't the way it should be. I like the idea of food healing health better, though. It made combat interesting, making it based more on skill and a bit less on equipment. There should be an Easter Egg for defeating the Ender Dragon on hardcore without modding (maybe checks for non source code? idk), because then I'd play on singleplayer with a goal.

    The ender dragon was my least favorite thing they added. It ruins the goal of the game.

    i just miss the over-all experience of MYSTERY. getting the game for the first time, and just learning by experience. im sure most of us remember our first singleplayer house, mine was a reinforced hill in the middle of a snowy biome, i dug it all out, and around it was a wall of dirt 20 blocks high, i thought that at some point the spiders wouldnt be able to get over the wall(it had not occured to me to build a ledge). i remember just spending hours building that house, and i remember where i was, and what i would listen to while playing it. i made that first house on both the car trip to niagara falls and the lonely nights next to the window with a few of the beautiful walls, i would listen to the newly released coldplay album, and would just repeat the song "moving to mars" over and over again til the sun came up. i still get nostalgia listening to the song, but it brings sadness as well; my first survival world got deleted. :'( but i can just remember the overall experience, and i remember the feeling i would get when i explored further. it took me days to get the courage to go out and explore the world outside of my dirt wall! but i remember that when i did it, i was so happy i did :D i guess all of this is to add abit of feeling to your stories too, i would love it if people put up their stories, so that hopefully this thread can be even more interesting :)

    I think the terrain is what i miss the most, i REALLY miss finding a giant plateau extending over several biomes instead of just on one, now mountains are all Extreme Hills or IceMountain biomes

    Yup, I miss these days too. The times when the sad yet happy music by C418 played. The, now rare or I have bad hearing, sounds that happened when you got close to a cave. The sense of something new, something could happen around the corner and you wouldn't even know about it.
    It's sad now to know that those feeling, and worlds damn comp. drives!, will never come back; But sometimes It's good not to live
    too much in the past, to embrace the new and untold. It's time for another adventure!

    Another thing was the lightning, Beta didn't had these ugly black spots we have how, and made people actually USE Torches in caves, instead of using the brightness slider.

    I remember when you could build cobble base and not get screamed at.

    I really missed the bows. Since i only started playing around beta 1.5-1.6 i don't really remember much before 1.8. I do miss its simplicity, the joy of mining endlessly for minerals on my computer that at good times would give me 10fps. Although i do miss infinite animal spawns, I do think the new minecraft is pretty cool. Enchanting, potions, new redstone items, and everything else has made minecraft into a more complete game... although i do agree that it needs some more work. All and all i do miss some of the old things, but i personally think minecraft has changed for the better. (in general)

    I miss getting all excited when I found a less than common ore, such as diamonds.

    what i miss most about the VERY OLD DAYS (infdev and such) is how hard the game was, i feel like mobs have been made considerably weaker especially with the removal of giants. idk if its i just got better at the game or if it was actually harder (its been a while) but i miss the massive challenge of this thing we call mining <3 lol
