Why Old Minecraft Was So Much Better 

Did i cook with this one or should i hop out the kitchen XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

>likes creativity >complains about creativity

sipover when no updates:😡 sipover when updates:😡

sipover when he's tasked to do something other than killing the ender dragon

Minecraft community belike: >Complains about updating less >Complains about updating too much >Complains about not updating >Complains about updating >Want the old Minecraft back

How the fuck do new biomes and structures, “break immersion”?

>ignores building >ignores redstone >ignores exploration >ignores all the beauty that has been added in (caves, cilffs, beautiful biomes) >only decides to beat the ender dragon >complains the game only has 1 thing to do >stretches it into a 20 minute video what did sipover mean by this?

I just realized that every criticism of modern Minecraft is basically like Under The Mayo's criticisms of Ultrakill. In a game with infinite combinations and choices, he chooses the most boring way to play and then complains about it.

sipover when he is bored of killing the ender dragon but doesnt want to try new things in minecraft

He complains about sprinting, even though the beta version he plays has sprinting He complains about Advancements, even though the version he plays has Achievements He complains Minecrafts progression is too linear, then praises Skyblock, which only has a single way of progressing

Man I miss when the dinosaurs were around, it was so simple back then, i felt so immersed in my body, but now this world feels too corporate, I miss hunting for my food and eating it raw, before fires were around ,and complicated things.

Sipover: the whole purpose of minecraft is adventure Also sipover: all these new structures and biomes that make you wanna explore is bad

when i enter a bad take competition and my oponent is sipover

bro got cooked, grilled, smoked, sous vide, and roasted by gerg

blud, you did not cook, you burned the entire restaurant, get tf out

"Minecraft is boring" "Why?" "Because they added new stuff."

Here comes the criticism --- 1:55 - Sipover claims old version promotes creative freedom. Keep track of points like this for later in the comment --- 2:50 - The literal definition of a sandbox game is to "provide players with a high degree of freedom to explore and interact with the game in a nonlinear fashion," meaning you can do whatever you want. That does include trading with villagers to get decent loot from the footage you provided 10 seconds earlier, or digging for minerals. --- 3:30 - Sipover claims game held onto the imagination and we get another view of what he can build with his soulless, unimaginative husk of a mind --- 6:35 - Sipover displays the literal definition of "Adventure" on the screen. You know what else has the definition of adventure? Ancient cities. Mega caves. Trial chambers. Etcetera. --- 6:55 - Sipover clearly hasn't seen the crazy stuff that can be done on Minecraft, like literally creating computers with redstone. --- 9:25 - Gotta give Sipover some credit, he's right. The wrong thing about this is, this is not just limited to older versions of the game. --- 9:45 - Ultimately, the newer menu is better, considering that the older menu has *no* organization and *no* categories whatsoever. --- 9:50 - Sipover contradicts himself from the first 2 minutes of the video and introduces "Choice overload bias," even though modern Minecraft has more block choices to promote creative freedom than older versions of the game. More textures, more colors, does that not sound like more creative freedom? --- 10:30 - Slap on an old alpha/beta related texture pack if you wish, but if you want an actual nice looking base/structure, learn to build. --- 11:05 - Oh, would you look at that, a million different biomes are so DISTRACTING! Maybe I would like to build something by that ruined nether portal or in that cherry grove! --- 11:20 - "Meaningless and useless features," I wouldn't call some of the new building blocks 'meaningless and useless features,' because I actually build with them, and I'm not a soulless, unimaginative husk like Sipover. --- 14:00 - The one and only thing I agree with in this entire video, although Notch sold Mojang to Microsoft in 2014, a full year before the end of your "golden age." --- You know what else is great about modern Minecraft? The ability to switch the games version back if you don't like modern Minecraft so much. Cope.

"Minecraft is bad, all you do is go for the Ender Dragon, it lacks content" "Minecraft is bad, it has too much content that distracks you and pulls you out of your immersive simplicity" Does this guy even listen to himself talk wth

10:15 the audacity to put a “BrUh” sound effect over someone’s impressive build because you can’t cope with your lack of creativity or skill if actually crazy

anyone else notice my well trimmed mustache in the video?

I agree with you, Mojang should remove every items and blocks in the game except dirt, oak log, cobblestone and torches so that the game is more immersive

“Fuck you redstone, biomes, new mobs, and new blocks, I need to beat the Ender Dragon!1!1!1!1”

Just let me paraphrase what tubbo said " if you're playing Minecraft just to beat the Ender Dragon then you're not playing the game right" Also you no u did not cook u burnt the entire kitchen

The three worst parts I remember about old Minecraft 1. No Beds to skip the night 2. Boats breaking upon touching anything 3. No swimming

These “old Minecraft good, new bad” videos are genuinely starting to piss me off. None of the people that make them have to mental capabilities to understand how to use the new additions, and therefore think they are bad. That is the most dumbass mindset ever.

NAHH GERG COOKED YOU BRO💀💀💀 Edit: dang this is my most liked comment thanks for 3K likes lol

2:14 advancements are not new or anything cuh

Sipover:Creativity good👍 Also Sipover:Creativity bad👎

My brother in Christ PLAY THE OLD VERSIONS

13:05 "I'm a Minecraft youtuber, yk how it is" is actually insane 😭

We were born too late to explore the planet, but too early to explore space. We were born just in time to play Minecraft.

you did NOT cook bro

Might as well remove building , mining , crafting , trading , killing , farming , sleeping , smelting , eating , exploring because its "ToO dİsTrAcTiNg" and "BrEaKs İmMeRsİoN"

You don't miss the old minecraft you miss being happy.

If you ever feel stupid, just remember that there are people who complain about 'modern Minecraft' when all they need to do is simply choose to play on older versions

Sipover, new additions and distractions literally do get you immersed. The fact that you're getting distracted by them means they're working to immerse you and make you forget what your "goal" is and makes you just want to explore what you come across. Thats like saying discovering the siofra river well or the hidden wall in volcano manor broke your immersion because it distracted you from reaching the end of elden ring.

Minecraft isn't getting "borring" people are. The "objectives" the game are there to give you a sense of direction but not as guidelines to be strictly followed. You can choose to ignore it and tou can still feel happy playing minecraft. Another reason why the game is getting "borring" is people are way too good at minecraft, you miss the feeling of not knowing anything about the game, since you can always choose to not read the update logs and what they changed.

"Im too distracted by these new biomes and structures"

I get your point buttt If Minecraft never changed, people would quit over time as it gets repetitive only having these certain mobs, these certain blocks. Also even if old Minecraft stayed, people would have still found metas and strats to make the game easier

Minecraft players complaining about how older Minecraft versions are better instead of just fucking playing them.

man you cooked so badly that the food got colder

Pink Sheep is here? I havent seen him in a loooong time.

I think one thing that "modern Minecraft sucks" youtubers don't understand is that the end is the true distraction of Minecraft. And that Minecraft is even more sandbox like than ever before. (Also WTF does immersive simplicity mean? I don't think that's even a word😂)

It's crazy that minecraft players are complaining about the game not feeling fresh anymore after 10,000 hours in the game

Damn Gerg flamed you

Minecraft players try not to be blinded by nostalgia: impossible

I think nostalgia blinds people that nostalgia is what made the game better back then when in reality there are actual objective reasons why this game was better at least to some people

Bro got absolutely cooked, burnt, deep fried, sizzled, heated, baked, smoked, grilled, roasted, incinerated, microwaved and airfried by gerg 🦅

Is this rage bait.

Did bro think it was april 1st?????

6:00 this is literally just a problem with you having played the game for an entire DECADE, a decade of playing any game would make you more experienced than when you first played it and therefore remove a majority of the challenge that younger you would have had. The amount of games that I used to suck at as a kid only to breeze through them like 8 years later is honestly quite incredible

gerg's REACTION video has more views than the original 💀

Gerg cooked the living shit out of you lil bro

I honestly think new Minecraft is better than old as I play it frequently and find it more fun than when I played it in 2013.

Who else came to this video after gerg cooked this man

Why old Sipover was so much better

minecraft has gotten better i think its just notalgia which makes some people prefer the old versions, The world generation is much much better now and with new blocks and items allows for a lot more creativity.

top 10 worst nostalgia bait videos of all time

I just don’t think people play modern Minecraft with the right mindset, if anything people need to play Minecraft without over thinking it. A good example of this is Dantdms recent lets-play series, he’s going casually taking his time and that should be the mindset people go with. Basically just play by your own terms not the games.

Sipover realizing there is more to Minecraft than just beating the ender dragon (there’s more to building than just using cobblestone): 🤯🤯🤯

This is perhaps one of the most outstanding pieces of modern minecraft analysis, in terms of its utter stupidity. In fact, I have taken this to such a high offense that I have watched the entire video for the pure, express purpose of finding the points he makes and completely, and since my vocabulary fails to find a more intense word, "shit" on it. I even have a goddamn notepad file that has all the points you make on this video so I can detail each and every single one to laugh and simultaneously lose brain cells to it. 1,931 words OR 11,091 characters. Heavy yapping, and maybe some points are repeated First, he goes on a tirade about old minecraft's being the supposed definition of a sandbox game, asserting that it grants the player complete creative freedom in relation to itself, as it supposedly did not have guidance or "pre-set goals". Modern minecraft does not have any of these, there is no real internal guiding scheme to indicate what you are supposed to do or how you are supposed to do it. Sure there is the ender dragon, but the game isn't setting that as an end-point, YOU are. You're free to do all you like post-dragon. I think there's a real misunderstanding here from Sipover, because he assumes that once you beat the ender dragon you're just supposed to say "Well, that's it! I guess I have nothing else to do!". According to Sipover, nowadays, the inclusion of the ender dragon, a feature since 1.0 (Sipover is playing on 1.8), annuls any further enjoyment contrived from the creation of magnificent buildings, or mind-bendingly complex redstone contraptions, or just lollygagging in general. He also says that EXTERNAL tutorials further set a preamble to how you should play the game. Is that new minecraft's fault, that its popularity has lend to its own simplification to those who SEARCH out of their own WILL to find ways to solve simple problems? Here's a revolutionary idea guys! Perhaps don't search for tutorials? Better yet, research the problem and create your own solution to it. You can still use your brain, because unlike what Sipover asserts, you don't need to follow everything online. There's also the apparent problem of advancements, which I find mind-bogglingly stupid to complain about, since achievements were also in 1.8, the version Sipover's playing in. Not just that, but inherently, you don't have to use it strictly, it's a guide for new players, it isn't a journal or questbook that details every single detail or task that needs execution to reach a stagnant end-goal, because there is no stagnant end-goal. In fact, let's ask this question, why does Sipover have so much fuss over this end-goal? What end-goal is there to a sandbox game like Minecraft. Is it beating the ender dragon? Is it beating the Wither? Or, maybe, and this is going to be quite the shocker, there is no end goal! Other than the ones you set for yourself once you start a new game session or world. The end goal of minecraft exists only in your head in the manifestation of when you are bored with your world after spending god knows how long in it IMMERSED (ooh foreshadowing) in your own creation! Our next course involves another incredibly atrocious attempt to discredit new minecraft for its apparent burgeoning of methods or solutions that can be taken when presented with a problem. What will you do when you encounter a zombie horde in new minecraft, that's right, do whatever! Ignore it, run away from it, kill it, or harvest them to disable mob spawns, new minecraft doesn't care, but there's some weird assertion from Sipover that the only way to do so, or I suppose reasonably do so, is to run away. Like you can't take that exact fucking path in nostalgiacraft, you shit-stained twat. Or, maybe you don't have items? Well, in new minecraft, just run to the newly minted fully-leveled smith villager and grab your handy 4 stacks of emeralds and trade for shittily enchanted diamond tools. Keep in mind, all this requires previous work to be done in excess! This isn't a problem with new minecraft, it's a problem with you, because you need to find a way to beef up your reasons to hate on the fact that you no longer have that childhood spark of enjoyment and creativity within you. Instead you are trapped to make compilations or "inspired" videos with that god-awful monotone voice that seems to be plaguing youtube as a whole. The next part is quite ironic, one of your "veterans" asks a representation of Notch for views. It's quite telling, considering your own content, as well as the video itself. Nostalgia bait has never been so much on the nose before than now, and I'm personally decontaminating myself in order to ensure its particulates are properly removed from my system. And then, using that experience in the aforementioned scene as a "revelation", you go on to say that the adventure of old minecraft was what supposedly made it so entertaining, and that new minecraft lacks such mystique and premise because of... following the most efficient route to beat the ender dragon? This is not even a "perhaps", this is just pure and simple fact, you have lost your sense of adventure because you have played minecraft and consumed related content to such an extent that you have decided the most optimal way to beat, rather, play minecraft is to kill the ender dragon. As an aside, no such concept is enforced on you remotely. There's no uncertainty, BECAUSE YOU HAVE ELIMINATED IT, of course the game is going to get stale if you play it for that long, because to YOU, there's only one END GOAL. There's NO CREATIVITY in your purview of minecraft, because if something doesn't help you beat the ender dragon, again, and I sound like a broken record, a end goal YOU YOURSELF set, then it's useless to you and doesn't fucking matter. What is to a "OG" minecrafter the concept of creating spires that reach to the heavens, artpieces in and of itself, if it doesn't help me get to "beat" the game. You fuckface, you miserable skank, you wet wipe, you brought this upon yourself. "You're forced to walk in this unguided-" AND WHO'S GUIDING YOU IN THE MODERN FUCKING VERSIONS?!?! A new player steps into the world of 1.21 minecraft and doesn't know shit, who's telling him to go to a village, kill the iron golem, find a cave, get diamonds, hop into the nether, use some F3 bullshittery to find a nether fortress, kill some blazes & kill some endermen too, leave, use pixel-perfect triangulation, and then go to the end to beat YOUR OWN FUCKING SET END POINT. NO ONE YOU DISINGENUOUS NOSTALGIA-BAITING TWO PANEL THUMBNAIL DUMBASS, IN THAT FACT/SENSE THERE IS STILL A SENSE OF ADVENTURE AND MYSTERY. WHO THE FUCK WANTS AN UNFORGIVABLE WORLD, THIS ISN'T DARK SOULS, THIS IS CUBE GAME THAT'S USED TO NOSTALGIA BAIT 12 YEAR OLD TIMMY. You then describe adventure using the dictionary, because apparently, you can't derive its meaning on your own. It makes sense though, you lack any real logical foundation for your arguments, you certainly would also lack it for the words you use. You describe old minecraft as something that is uncertain, without an apparent Input/Output. Then, you dismantle your argument yourself by stating that "now I know everything there is to know". Uhh, basic intelligence police? Yeah, this guy right here. Why do you know everything there is to know? It's because you played the game at first, doofus. Of course there won't be as much uncertainty if you've already been through a game. Games are programs, boil it down, they're I/O. Do you know that? You probably do, you would know that, you just ignored it for your own side. And then, and then, holy shit I can't even do this I can't expend brainpower on this anymore. "How can Minecraft feel like an adventure if you know exactly what you're doing" Well Sippy my boy, have you ever wondered why tasks get monotonous if you do them enough times? Maybe think on that. You also knock off building, which is, I don't know, a pretty integral experience to the minecraft game and is pretty fucking creative if you ask me. I'm sorry, maybe you should, I don't know, expand your horizons in terms of your own head, since it appears to be a pretty limiting factor in both the enjoyment of minecraft and, well, you know. All in all, right now, around the 7 minute mark, your entire argument is propped up by the apparent necessity of the death of the ender dragon being the end goal, and the fact that you are intrinsically aware of what the game can do, which would also knock the sense of adventure and mystery off the older minecraft versions even faster. Good Job, Sipover.

this video can be summarized by saying "its minecraft's fault that i dont have any creativity"

Just start playing beta Minecraft for a while, and soon you'll get a craving to play the newer versions and genuinely enjoy them. Its how human brain works...

I didn't expect so much hate lol, I agree as someone who's enjoyed the game since 2012. It's a great game even now, but the simplicity of old Minecraft made it. It also made things like servers and mega builds so much cooler

its no wonder that someone who makes the most generic, cookie cutter minecraft content would struggle to be creative and come up with somethign fun to do on his own. I mean even this video is just riding the hypetrain of "minecraft is so dead" videos. Maybe if you actually enjoyed creating something you'd find merit in building. Maybe if you actually enjoyed making videos you'd experiment and try to stand out from the sea of safe minecraft slop channels. This guy would not be making youtube videos at all if there was no money to be gained because youtube wouldn't be insentiving making videos. Just get a 9-5 bruh, save us all the headache

bro isnt even human anymore he turned to ashes and decomposed into the ground by greg 💀

Imagine a huge box filled with sand. Your main goal is and always will be to mold a castle of sand using the plastic molds. But, rather than only having molds for making a castle, there's a huge variety of molds and tools you can use. One creates a house out of the sand, another creates a cliff out of it, and another makes beautiful trees. Rather than trying all of that out however, you instead chose to immediately and efficiently build the sand castle, then complain it was too "boring" and that these other choices almost "distracted you from the real reason you played the game".

Never Let Bro Cook Again 🙏💀

imagine what minecraft will look like in 10 years

i ruined minecraft, i’m sorry.

I like how you complained about advancements and sprinting dispite them both being at in beta

I think Sipover would rather play a superflat world on peaceful mode

wait pink sheep is here? does anybody remember him

a large part of this video is, "I've played a lot of minecraft so its boring." but if you havent played it in a while it is genuinely fun. most of this comes to, "Im not familiar with this so I want to explore." as to why old minecraft is better. New minecraft is objectively better, but old minecraft is just what we had. and this aint a new thing, minecraft players have been rejecting change since survival mode was added

The thing is new minecraft still has the old spark it’s just dependent on how we play it

,,The game is too easy!" ,,Alright here's some new structures and shit to make it slightly harder" ,,Duuh the game's too confusing and pulls you away from the main goal!"

Dude's argument is "I've played 100s of hours of modern Minecraft so it doesn't surprise me anymore, but old Minecraft I haven't played in a decade surprises me now. Like yeah dude, if you play 100s of hours of a game that'll happen. Modern Minecraft is still surprising to the rest of us

I Totally agree! I miss the time when I would walk for 10 minutes in an oak forest biome without finding anything cool or engaging for my experience

Bro My lil cousin asked me who is CaptainSparkelz And that immediately made me feel old

This video has no point. There is a "little known" feature called 'installations' where you can play old versions for no cost. Plus minecraft is more of a sandbox now because you *are not* forced to do anything the game promotes, beating the game is optional, using villagers is optional, using tutorials is optional. i agree with gerg about this video

Or was it? Its the childhood and nostalgia related to it that changed, Minecraft is still a great game.

9:30 - 9:43 “Skyblock teaches us that no matter how ridiculous the odds may seem, within us resides the power to overcome these challenges and achieve something beautiful. That one day we’ll look back at where we started, and be amazed by how far we’ve come.”-Technoblade

I can't comprehend everything wrong with this video...

gerg played chess and sipover played checkers

reasons why old minecraft was better according to this video: - less RU-vid tutorials - no progression system - no villages - no brightness slider - worse cave generation - 'not knowing every threat'? - limited block pallet - different RU-vid videos are popular? (Etho still exists...) - Mojang "don't listen to the community" (pretty sure that's flat-out wrong) - Technoblade?? (many of his most interesting videos were enabled by features that moved the game away from the so-called "golden age") if you like the simplicity of the older game, that's totally fair! but this video has SO many non sequiturs and borderline contradictory points like holy cow

nostalgia bait AND a reused concept all in one video! you're hitting new records with this one!

bro tried to cook but instead blew up the death star, now i have to rebuild this thing

the like to dislike ratio is crazy 💀💀💀

Beat the game? You can't beat the game, there is no end. Explore the lands, build, there's so much more to do.

ahh i get it, new minecraft sucks because too many features, and mojang is lazy because they dont add a lot of features.

r we just gonna ignore the blatant watermark in the corner at 10:03 lol

It was not about minecraft, it was about your childhood.

gerg cooked you bro

What a excellent ideology If they add new features then the game is bad

My brother in Christ THE POINT IF MINECRAFT ISNT ALL ABOUT “kiLl enDEr dRaGon” ITS ABOUT BUILDING AND CREATIVITY. SOMETHING YOU MISSED COMPLETELY

13:55 bottom left: [Somone]“whispers to you: yeah I think the datapack is tripping” Oh so this is just 1.21 but with a lot of classic datapacks?

6:16 not if you suck at the game. I've been playing for 7 years and Ive just found my first nether fortress. I'm too scared to enter it. Edit: I've watched more and can confirm this is a skill issue. No immersion? I played for an hour straight to try and get a black wolf. I failed.

Bro is this "opinion" a trend now?

Sipover you are part of that impersonal mainstream video schlock that you described at the end of the vid

The amount of contradiction in this video is genuinely boggling
