Every Feature Mojang Removed From Minecraft (And Why)

Man it's strange seeing these "extinct features" and most of them being what you remember more than the new ones

Iron Golems not being able to give roses to the villagers is one of the saddest things I've ever seen :(

The void fog was honestly really cool and made mining near bedrock more atmospheric and mysterious

I am a Minecraft veteran that hasn't touched the game much in the past 3-4 years and I gotta say, most of these removed features were legitimately the most nostalgic and memorable things they've ever done for the game. It really makes me sad they decided to throw away a decent portion of Minecraft history without any way to access them in the newest version

I just don’t understand why they removed world generation options. It made the game so much more fun and could make for endless experimentations to keep things fresh

If you remember gravel village roads. You deserve a veteran's discount

I miss amplified, floating islands and customized world settings, they were so much fun a good wiff of fresh air

I honestly didn't notice some things that got removed, but the one that I am the most sad about would be the removal of the 'tutorial worlds'. I've spent sooo many hours just exploring the maps and messing around in the worlds with my sisters, kinda sad to see it's gone

It’s so weird seeing all these “old” features I remember so fondly. Especially the extra world customization options. But now I just feel old lmao

8:20 You should have mentioned that not only did we not have elytra or horses, you couldn't even sprint back then

7:16 This wasn't always the case, though. They used to have AI, but for some reason, Mojang removed it in the 1.8 update, leaving them in their vegetative state. R.I.P. Giants.

The Farlands were so popular, despite being a bug, they blew up to the point Mojang decided to include it intentionally in Minecraft Storymode

The void fog should come back, it was a neat feature that was removed for seemingly no reason

If you remember the old wool and torch lanterns in a village you are a legend

Wow, I remember these. Man, I'm old. Was so confused the other day why I couldn't craft enchanted golden apples with gold blocks only to find out it's been gone for over 5 years!

1:34 Why not make it so that in the game's code, creeepers tells the mobs around it to run away from it? It's a lot more effective and less intensive on fps than having all other mobs check for exploding creepers each frame.

I had a few memories of the nether reactor, I gaslit myself into thinking it never existed at all. Thank gods for the wiki

It’s a wonder that for the creeper explosion they didn’t code the creeper to force update mobs in a radius to flee vs having mobs check for the explosion

I cannot be the only one who remembers the features that let you generate a custom world like Caves of chaos, mountain madness, water world and everything else

The Infinite Dimensions has always felt to me as a amazing feature that was removed. Even though it was just suppose to be a April Fools joke. It was one of the most fun features I played with in a game. I really think they should bring it back. But set it to be a post end dragon end game feature that you can only acquire late into the game from materials you can only mine on End Dimension Islands. You will be surprised some of the amazing dimensions I found that were completely randomly generated. With extreme different biomes in just one single dimension brought me hours of fun exploration. Exploring those worlds were a ton of fun. Especially building bases in some of them like a biome made from Netherite/Diamond Blocks blocks etc
