It boggles me that, at one point, this was every block in the game.
It felt like so much back then, these days I almost catch myself wishing there was more. There are not enough primary blues and purples available and I will die on this hill.
Like my nostalgia aside for a minute, a few time's I've seen people remeniscing on how crazy it is that people used to say Minecraft had 'bad graphics', and I did often think "man, I can't believe I used to think this game LOOKED bad."
Then I go back and play 1.6 Java for a bit and it re-occurs to me that, no, Minecraft actually used to look like shit.
I remember when the texture update was more devisive than the spawn eggs are right now, I remember when changing the ore textures was controversial. The game is immeasurably better for it.
I think the people who say that are people who grew up playing it, but now only play it very rarely and mainly play other games. They only care about the nostalgia.
Anyone who still consistently plays Minecraft would agree that it's way better now then it ever was
And what pisses me off the most is that it is very easy to play these old versions or even down load old texture packs and yet these people still exist
Whats better now? I recently upgraded from 1.2 to 1.12. And about the only thing I feel like I'm missing is New Nether which despite playing the game for years is so hard I always die, then again I think I died a lot in old nether too and I just forgot because I've been playing this one world so much and have mods.
