So, I have been looking around, and finding some of the new features in Minecraft, and so far, I am not all that impressed.

While some of the stuff, like the ability to repair tools without loosing enchantments, are cool. Some of the stuff seems overly useless. Such as carrots... Why do we need carrots? We already have wheat, and apples, and Melons. Can't that be enough.

I have also found out that some animals now will not be bred using wheat. What happened to the simpleness that we all know and love? The greatest thing that has ever been about Minecraft is this simplicity, and now they are taking that away.

Now that I am done ranting. I want to know how the community feels about such matters. Or, if you have heard of any other features, tell me about them.

Use carrots to breed pigs, seeds to breed chickens, then for sheep and cows still use wheat.

That's one reason for carrot. Another thing is if you use a fishing rod and craft it (i think you craft) with a carrot, you get a carrot on a stick, right click with this while riding a pig, and the pig will go where you point.

Have you seen the new boss?

Apples are fairly hard to actually get, unless you do a lot more wood cutting than usual. Melons you have to find in dungeons, otherwise its just sugarcane (not edible) pumpkins, and wheat. I like the carrots because they grow like wheat, but are eaten one by one. Also the potatoes can be cooked to get very filling, as much as meat! Only no need for killing poor cows and pigs.

Another new thing is making pumpkin pies.

One of my new fav foods. Its another way of using veggies to get as filling as meat, only you use PUMPKINS FOR FOOD FOR ONCE!

Slimes spawn in dark areas in swampland, no one can argue that's good. Witches do too though, they're pretty hard to beat, you have to be rlly aggressive.

Zombies show the armour they will rarely drop.

Custom flatlands!!! Make them high enough so you can not only build stuff underground, but also no more having 100 slimes!

I don't mind the addition of carrots, but I think that they should have kept the breeding the same.

Yeah, I saw the new boss, and I think that they are kinda cool, but I don't like the witches.

The new foods are eh, I was ok with the old ones, but I guess that it will be cool to have some new varieties.

I hadn't heard that the zombies were going to show armor, but that is really cool. Same with the new flatland options, seems like a good idea.
