1.13 could perhaps be another game-changing update as it greatly improved the oceans, but on the opposite end was the update notorious for making the game's performance worse, to the point where many servers (like 2b2t) still haven't updated past 1.12

Surprised 1.14 was missed. Made villager trading halls a lot easier. Source of unlimited diamond gear, books and golden carrots seems pretty big to me (how easy it became, IK it was possible before). Iron farms became simpler too, and the texture update changed the whole vibe of the game for the better!

Half of the reasons listed for why 1.9 was an insanely important version are actually features that came out in 1.11. Shulker boxes were added in 1.11 despite shulkers being added in 1.9. The ability to fly with fireworks when using an elytra was also added then. Observers and Totems of Undying were also added then. I really think this update should have made the list man

1.11s observer addition is soooooo underrated, also introduced firework elytra flight. Two rly minor features but fundamentally changed the game :v

“This version of Minecraft added black ste-“ Cracked me up! Great video!

You missed Alpha 1.1.1, the ever so important update that added the way we communicate peace today on servers: Sneaking.

IMO I think 1.13 is a big update because behind the scenes there was a thing called "the flattening" that occurred, where all block IDs were removed and replaced by their string names (i.e. oak_planks instead of ID 5). This greatly improved the technical side of the game but nearly universally made all prior command/mods that used IDs incompatible.

I feel like every update since 1.13 has just gotten better and better (though 1.15 was pretty small)

One thing I can say about most of the updates that the game has had is some of the biggest were the smallest.

10:03 shulker boxes were not added in 1.9. They came in a later update, which was 1.11.

You missed 1.2‚ 1.7 and 1.8 1.2 changed the mcregion world format to the anvil format‚ it also extended the max height from 128 to 256. 1.7 completely changed world generation‚ made the controls menu better‚ and more. 1.8 added a lot of stuff such as banners‚ aquatic monuments‚ 3px arms skin model...

All of these updates were very game changing, but I can also say that 1.14 was also that. It completely overhauled villages to the way we know them now as well as adding raids, and a whole host to functionality blocks. The UHC event was great btw!

Can't believe 1.13 wasn't here.. change the way the ocean was seen. Had brand new blocks and mobs. It also added swimming and a new weapon. Was very game changing.

I'd say 1.12 was pretty nice, it decreased a lot of problems caused with servers, Such as, chunk errors, lag and many other things.

I honestly would’ve liked if Mojang Had named the nether the Nexus, and the nether portal would have been changed to the Nexus portal. Now that I think about it, that sounds way cooler than the name we have today in my opinion.

To me, the core of Minecraft doesn't really seem "complete" until the alpha versions. As such, my own personal list of the most impactful updates begins with the Halloween update aka alpha 1.2.0, then the "piston update" as I like to call it (beta 1.7), adventure update (beta 1.8 + release 1.0), 1.5 (because I love redstone), 1.9, 1.13, 1.16, and finally the cave update.

1.15 has totally got to be the most wanted and hyped update ever riiiiiiiight? it added soooooooooo much new content, more than any other update! and we toooootally didn't have to wait a whole year for it.

Great video! I do feel as though 1.14 was also a pretty important update though considering they completely revamped the villager system and because they changed all the textures (I think that was 1.14)

2:24 bro that cut 😂

Great video as always! I probably would’ve also included 1.7 since it adds a lot more to the overworld, 1.12 since it completely changed the achievement system and also added different types of beds, and 1.14 since it changes all the games textures, makes trading more rewarding, and adds so many new types of farms

1.9 is definitely one of the most impactful updates. The combat, I hate. But I like the off hand and shucker boxes. But PLEASE mojang… ADD OFF HAND TO BEDROCK!!!!

7:00 I probably never started playing Minecraft if creative mode was never added! Heck, My first world was a creative world! 🙂

8:39 No no no no no. No. No no no. You brought back horrible memories. This does not deserve just a split second. Port-forwarding was one of the worst things to ever exist. It was one of the most annoying things to do. I first faced that in a major way in Warcraft 3 to host maps and was so glad I got rid off it, only to be bothered by it in Minecraft again. Before Hamachi and custom servers, it was one of the worst things to set up servers. Especially when we (in Germany) had a switch where you couldn't do port forwarding anymore in the router for WHATEVER reason and it was said it would just work, but it didn't. It was a living hell to just play together for a long time

in my opinion, 1.14 was also one of the biggest updates because it added many new types of blocks, changed villager trading, and added better looking textures.

My personal favorite is update 1.13. that updated the oceans into Lukewarm oceans and Coral reefs. It also introduced the option to have world be of one biome, so I could have an ocean only world. My favorite way of playing is to do a Infinite water breathing potion effect (with /effect give playername minecraft:water_breathing 999 1 true) and just dive into the ocean, like a fish, and not worry about running out of air Edit: typo fix and forgot to add "give" to the command line, tested, works in 1.18.2. version

1.14 was also quite a game changer i think because of the changes on villagers. There are a lot of diffence in gameplay between pre 1.14 and post 1.14

I feel 1.4 should've been there. It added a new very difficult boss that didn't just give you exp, it gave you a nether star that could be crafted into the beacon. The beacon is imo one of the most important blocks added to minecraft. The ability to instantly break stone with haste 2.

I can’t believe you skipped 1.15, it added the game changing feature of *bees*

Ah yes, updates. Updates, updates, updates. You have an update glitch

Theres one update and feature which is like.... the most forgotten thing I know of, The removal of the customized world type in 1.13, I liked those, and the sites that are now gone that used to share presets for them.

Ahhhh… when you see that notification pop up… you know it’s going to be a well spent moment !

While many updates have had controversy, I've stuck around since beta 1.8 with little concern, even 1.9 didn't bother me too much. Yet weirdly, the cave update of all things is pushing me away from the game. I never thought mining was broken, and the 'fix' to it kind of scares me....

8:40 I remember when I tried to port forward for the first time and my friends were screaming and saying "YOU SENT US THE WRONG IP" and I was so confused why it didn't work, so I rewatched the tutorial like 5 million times!

I was just watching a bunch of your videos this morning, and you uploading this video today is both creepy and extreamely awsome!!!

Imma be real. I'm still trying to understand a lot of new stuff in minecraft. I keep having to ask my friends what stuff is or what the new stuff does. Before I got minecraft on my switch I hadn't played minecraft in at least 4 years before I got my switch copy.

It's nice to see you using clips from X's adventures in Minecraft, he was the whole reason I wanted to play Minecraft back in the day and I still sometimes go back and rewatch his series.

Minecraft in a few decades: We are updating the game to match real life, yes, EVERYTHING in real life

I would’ve put 1.14 in there too. Not only did it completely overhaul villagers, but it got a lot of people back into the game and started Minecraft’s rerise to popularity

4:00 actually somebody suggested it be called the nether and notch really liked the name

10:49 i was using headphones and when you added there pigstep i literally got goosebumps bcz this was the version i learned Minecraft fully

I remember that "removed herobrine" our first days were such good times

I think the most impactful updates to Minecraft are Beta 1.8 and 1.9 (Combat Update). I even compare the players by the date they join Minecraft. Like 2b2t, where is a criteria to be considered an old player or a new player. Old players are considered those who joined 2b2t prior to June 1st 2016 (the date when TheCampingRusher made his first video on 2b2t), and new players are considered those who joined 2b2t after June 1st 2016. I consider this applies to Minecraft as well. I consider the old players to be those who joined Minecraft prior to September 14th 2011 (Beta 1.8's release date). The mid players are considered by me those who joined Minecraft between September 14th 2011 and before February 29th 2016 (1.9's release date) And the new players are considered by me those who joined Minecraft after February 29th 2016. I will explain why are Beta 1.8 and 1.9 (The Combat Update) are cutoff points between the old, mid and new Minecraft. Beta 1.8 changed so much about Minecraft. It added a panorama image that stayed until Minecraft 1.13, a new hunger system, a new terrain generator, new bow mechanics, sword blocking, new sounds and so much more. Unless you played Pocket Edition before 0.12.1 or Legacy Console Edition on Xbox 360 before TU5, you must know the old sounds, the lack of a hunger bar and the lack of sprinting to be an old player. And 1.9 is one of the most controversial updates of Minecraft. It splited the community in two, many players quit Minecraft because of this update and this update started Minecraft's decline in 2016. Added a new combat, revamped the End and the Ender Dragon, added new sounds, added a Spectate option if a player dies in Hardcore mode and so much more. Unless you played the Bedrock Edition or the Legacy Console Edition, you must know the old combat, the old End and the Old Ender Dragon and lack of sounds while placing lava and water and while equiping an armor to be at least a mid player. I watched Minecraft videos starting in 2013-2014, then I was starting playing Minecraft, starting with Pocket Edition in late 2014, and then I was starting playing Java Edition in August-September 2015. Please don't make hate on this comment. It's my opinion.

1.14 was definitely an important part. It popularized automatic farms and made villagers super exploitable

Epic: And the addition of the offhand was very important Bedrock players:

Love the great vids and wondering how much research goes into them?

It's like he spends all his time researching on mc

I love your video style! Keep it up. Good Job Man👍

1.14 made getting god gear super easy, surprised that update didnt make it into the video

Neat analysis video! Thanks for uploading!

Black Steve was the biggest feature added to Minecraft, an absolute shame it was removed, I was appaled when that happened

1:52 i'm surprised no one talked about this.

Great video! Already watched the whole thing and I loved it!

My name Jeff 😂😂😂 Great video as always, love learning about the history of minecraft!

I also believe that 1.14 was a major update as well. It allowed players to easily obtain huge amounts food, enchants and diamond gear. It also brought raid farms, making emeralds really easy to obtain. It honestly made Minecraft to easy and completely revolutionised the game imo.

"Why Emilia is The best Girl? - KZfaq" i see, TheMisterEpic is man of culture

Reject Jeff. Embrace Jeremy.

Shulkerboxes and firework rocket for elytra came on the 1.11 update. 1.11 should get the credit lol

beta 1.8 was the most impactful I don't know what you mean about it being the worst. It literally created creative mode and more items within the game. An actual hunger and able to run. The nostalgic creative block UI brings me back.

1:51 I used to play on a server with setveen way back when and he was every bit a memelord as he appears to be here lmao

👀shulkerboxes were added in 1.11 not 1.9

Good video, but you got one thing wrong. Orepros isn't a clickbait youtuber, his videos are skits like explodingtnt's.

To this list, I would add the 1.15 Buzzy Bees. Oh yes, it's small in content, but what's important about it is the behind the scenes. Not much visible done, because Mojang always said that this would be a technical MaJ dedicated to bug fixing and oh my god, they did a lot of that. The 1.15 will have been a big step towards a more stable and performing game, not to mention the hundreds of small improvements that are not bugs but significantly improve the game quality.

You should do a minecraft let’s play, i really enjoy your commentary!

Shulker boxes were actually introduced in 1.11, not 1.9

10:09 I’ve been playing minecraft for about 9 years and have never used and elytra or shulker box in survival minecraft because I don’t try to rush and beat the game/get op like people do now. They will get full netherite and an elytra within a few hours. I just enjoy minecraft for the building and grinding

black steve was the best addition to minecraft

How to port forward...how to port forward... Why Emilia is The Best Girl...how to port forward. Thanks MisterEpic, keep up the good work :D

Imagine Minecraft without crafting. 'im gonna go play minecr... oh' Also 'Jeff'

"1.9 was the most controversial update" 1.19.1: am I a joke to you

Technically all updates are game changing

That's what I miss from Minecraft, the simpleness and small additions that shaped the original versions. It was quite fun to discover the new technical features that were added with each update

I would like to see a similar video about redstone. 1.15 didn't change the game dramatically, still it's really important for redstone. Honey block allows to make bigger and pretier flying machines. And somebody already mentioned a 1.11 with observers.

When the End Update eventually comes I think the dragon fight shouldn’t change. If they ever changed the fight it might make it worse.

I remember playing before beta 1.3. Actually i played most of my minecraft time in pre beta 1.3 time. I still do not use such features like enchanting because they are still too new.

another incredible video by an incredible youtuber c:

0:42 ok I must admit that is quite original

I still remember when I start playing game in 1.5.2 and then play 1.6 and get horses as best update to game.

ive been here since 50k. i love seeing small youtubers grow :)

Honestly, I dont mind the combat changes in 1.9 I feel like 1.8 combat is just click as fast as you can, but now you actually need to plan your hits and not just run in mouse ablazin

Beta 1.3 was the most important version, because that's when I started playing.

love the vids bro keep it up

black steve do be hittin different tho..

This was a quality video as always!

Shulker boxes and rocket flight were both 1.11

"notch is it okay if i pay you with sexual favours instead of cash" lol

jeff, i rlly enjoy ur ids and have been subbed for a while, can u do a vid on console legacy editions.

Him: 5:07 Me: why yes. 2b has not skipped a night in over 5 years.

You forgot the most important one!!! The created update: First set of scripts posted by Notch for what would become Minecraft

"This version of Minecraft added black Steve" hoo boy

10:50 its weird to see old textures that shouldn't be there in 1.16

For me it would definitely be either 1.7 or 1.13. 1.7 changed the game with a whole bunch of new biomes and blocks and some more. Same with 1.13 but they also added some decor blocks and new mobs with new water mechanics

1:51 that first message was interesting...

1.10 has to be the least important update, adding only 2 mobs that you can only find in rare biomes. Sure magma blocks are useful and important, but that really could have just come out with another update. I think we need a proper new update that truly deserves the name "frostburn update".

woud love to see a minecraft vinila world beable to genreate up to y1024 and -y1024 and add in the nether to the overworld as an underground place to dig to

"Desert Temples and Jungle Pyramids"

1.14 expanded villagers, lore for pillagers, a way to designate villager profession vs breed check kill repeat

i think 1.11 is the most underrated update. it added shulker boxes, observers, and firework elytra boosting

1.11 is a very important one adding firework boosting to the elytra totems of undying and shulker boxes were also added in 1.11 not 1.9

I think diamonds should still be the most powerful. They still remember when they were.
