What do you think guys? Will the 1.8 Update ruin your whole Minecraft playing experience, or will you enjoy the new features?

My only Minecraft playing experience is to do with Classic now. I very rarely play Beta.

You could say that I only bought the thing for the skin. :D

Ammar seems more like possible changes, all that ik is confermed is food bar, enderman(moves blocks, only attacks when looked at, teleports, all out creepy), new lighting, and the new foods.

From that list (Which is probably ripped from minecraftwiki.net) I can 100% tell you there that this is just becoming a copy of Terraria...

Go through that list and name all the things that Terraria has. I found 10...

stare at them and go back in time or have one go inside your head. Look away see a sword with blood at the end in the middle of you screen that would be epic

Terraria clone, but 3D? I totally don't mind

I just can't see what people like about it. Minecraft was made to be a game where you need Imagination. I've talked to a couple of people about the Update, and about 70% said that the 1.8 Update will ruin the whole game... I personally am with the 70%...
