Minecraft USED to be SCARY... What happened? 

I haven't been uploading because of some computer issues. My laptop died on me, but now I have a new PC and am ready to get back to it. I hope you enjoy the video :)

Even today, the End and the Nether are still kinda scary to me. Not really in a horror sense, I guess, but more of a "if I'm not careful, I could lose everything." Watching youtubers bridge across giant gaps in the End gives me a lot of anxiety, and doing it myself is even more nerve-wracking.

There will be one thing that will always scare you in Minecraft... Random cave noises!

I'm still scared to go caves, I guess I'm just a little coward

I feel like Minecraft should add more hostile mobs that are stronger even when you have good armor like the warden.

Still remember being a dumb kid being scared of Herobrine or Casey’s Cave

the biggest factor is probably back then everyone was just younger and had more a more open thought processes towards everything. with all the knowledge the game has nowadays it will never reach the same level of wonder that the old versions did.

Baby zombies sorta counter sprinting. Also, make a video talking about what a mob is, since the wiki counts jockies as their own mob. The wiki trears the trader llama as a varient of the llama, and the killer bunny is a seperate mob from the rabbit.

I feel like Minecraft needs a difficulty curve. Something like Terraria where the enemies get harder as the game progresses. Ex: Something like entering the nether for the first time could allow different variants of the normal mobs to spawn with better loot. That way the game never feels stale when you get powerful gear. Sort of like those skeleton horse traps, but being more common as the player gets better gear.

I definitely can see how older versions of Minecraft give off a more “scary” vibe but I think it’s only because we’re looking back on it. Like you mentioned in the video, everything that made those seemingly more unsettling weren’t intended but I have to wonder if people who were playing alpha back in those days thought the same. Maybe at first but you get accustomed to it. I definitely prefer modern day Minecraft and I still do think that there are plenty of things in it that are still unsettling. To me, by far the scariest thing ever in Minecraft would be the ancient city as going to one literally turns Minecraft into a horror game.

I add mods in modern minecraft that make mobs less predictable, faster and more common, also reduce enchants to level 3, and remove netherite and beds, it helps a little I still prefer beta for the liminal nostalgic feel, thats why I also play with old textures

I remember playing Minecraft on my iPad with my cousin we got in trouble because we were running around screaming because of the zombies it was so much fun

Thanks for making another great video! Keep them coming!

this is exactly now I feel, I play minecraft beta now, it's also more relaxing and chilled out

Hey another great vid!

minecraft was never even intended to be a horror game in the first place.

I think it really depends on your game style and your age too. I guess Mojang and especially Microsoft want to open to younger audiences, therefore the game should be easier from an experienced gamer's point of view, and also the world filled more with life and structures keeping the interest alive.

Thanks for explaining this! Minecraft always did feel scary but I could never really explain why

You grown up.

they need to make hard mode HARD mobs should have more health, hit harder, be faster, have better, AI play nightmare epic siege mod, that shows it also enchants need to be nerfed, they would get a lot of hate from the community, but I really want it, and netherite was a mistake

keep going bro

It's because of playing Gorilla tag alone exists😬

i dunno it just seems like you play with shields, easy mode, and high gamma.

Need the Nether or End to be scary? Turn the music on.

👍

Bruh the warden is fucking scary what you on about

Zoomer

minecraft was never scary imo, but alright.
