Why havent they improved the survival aspects of this game?

Why havent they improved the survival aspects of this game? There's no incentive to do anything after building a simple base. Mob AI is stupidly simple and combat is ass.

Seems like this game is only worth playing if you just want to make pixel art

      's no incentive to do anything in this sandbox game

      Sandbox games can have mechanics with some depth to them
      Minecraft has very little depth to it's mechanics. You can break blocks, place them, craft shinier looking blocks to place, and thats about it.

      The addition of the Nether and Ender dragon shit is very unrewarding because combat is really awful in this game.

    I played a lot of FTB on v1.7 and my favorite thing was getting my thaumcraft level up enough to put straw golems in my base to take care of farming. Even if having a mob try to do it is functionally shittier than other farm methods I just love having minions running around my base doing chores. Has a mod come out since then with an emphasis on this? Or has anyone found a game for this itch?

      I haven't tried it myself but FTB Academy is advertised as a modpack with guidance? Might be worth checking out.

      Failing that, if you're okay with just focusing on some magic and less fancy tech then Blightfall was pretty good about limiting your options so that you could focus

    yeah that is pretty much the problem I have whenever I start a world in Minecraft. Once you get iron armor and a diamond sword you are basically invincible and there is no reason to keep upgrading. what the frick is the point of potions and enchantments when you never need them? the skeleton of a good game is there but Mojang is moronic and they want to add Bees instead, which serve zero purpose.

    The only thing impressive about minecraft is it's world generation and the fact you can build anything. I almost wish the game itself was an engine to allow for total overhaul mods that really make it a new game instead of having to play buggy modpacks that add a bunch of things that aren't always mechanically consistent

      there's no point to being creative, though. building a giant, amazing-looking base has no upside compared to a small one. you can't build automated defenses to keep mobs out, you can't prevent them from spawning inside your base, automation is extremely rudimentary, etc. there's not even any point to building roads around your world because you never need to go anywhere more than once.

      if "being able to do anything" with no overarching point was the pinnacle of experiences then why not just doodle shit in mspaint?

        This anon gets it. Even Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts is a better outlet because you can come up with many solutions to certain problems. For Minecraft, there are hardly any problems that need solving. Automating a farm takes a good 10 minutes and then you'll regret removing one of the 3 things you can do besides build structures aimlessly; if the enemies were any smarter and didn't just blitz you after getting within range then it would be a different story. Bandit raids were an okay idea but they simply suck like everything else.

        most magic mods solve this issue pretty effortlessly by allowing you to build good looking structures that are functional and vital to progression.
