i dont want Minecraft to be extrinsic goal focused
i want Minecraft to provide more easily accessible rewards to help start/finish my intrinsic goals, especially being neurodivergent
i dream big, but even simple tasks dont happen because i need more frequent rewards

1.20 should expand the region that the enchanting table can accept power from bookshelves from 5x5x2, to 7x7x4
This allows players more freedom of self-expression through more creative, aesthetic arrangement of enchanting setups without compromising function of full-power setups

i think most people would want dyed pots in 1.20, but what would you like to use them for?
making them should be kept simple-- adding dye when crafting makes the entire pot dyed, and added shard patterns a shade darker.
they would go better with different color themed builds (:

What if The End dimension was not "the end"?
i think for a sandbox game, progression needs to be delinearized, so my random idea:
- eyes of ender rarely found in some structures
- each stronghold portal takes you to that location in the outer end islands

fog provides atmosphere.
prior to 1.18.1 and especially 1.7.2, it felt like an atmospheric. now it feels like a game limitation.
i understand some of the reasoning.
however, i remain a strong advocate for foggy and cloudy days. little atmospheric touches go a very, very long way
mojang has done an amazing job with the 1.18 generation and i know they are proud of it, but the change to fog is going the wrong way. The fog/atmosphere needs to start closer to the player in order to convey depth and scale. Further fog makes the image flat.

recent examples of Minecraft features w/frequent rewards:
- large ore veins (1.18)
- sculk (1.19)
- trail ruins (1.20)
- trial chambers (1.21)

where does this vein lead?
satisfying XP noises!
what's in these ruins?
i beat the mobs! what's in the vault!?

providing frequent rewards and more engaging tasks help especially dopamine-deficient brains go from wanting to do something, to actually doing it
sometimes it's just how the loot is presented (vaults, sus blocks), or visual & auditory satisfaction (sculk, vaults)

my personal preference?
lodestone compass.
counter-argument:
lodestones are valuable and shouldn't do this
counter-counter-argument:
lodestones shouldn't be valuable, they're a fantastic earlygame tool gatekept behind the highest grade material. use a block of raw iron instead!
@slicedlime
I’m really not feeling the map. Now that Trial Chambers are rarer and still have no surface entrance you’re basically just totally pressured into using villagers for finding them.
I think villagers and their roles in this game are becoming WAY oversaturated.

regardless of the changes made to villagers, this would be such a great, fun quality of life change for villager transportation
I'm a big fan of the villager changes (certainly more fun than rerolling lecterns), but perhaps there can be better transportation methods for them :)

I think the term "boss" in Minecraft feels off.
To me, a boss leaves the impression that the goal is to beat them-- a destination. Minecraft, at it's heart, is not a destination-focused game, it's about the journey. It is an adventure-sandbox game.

in 1.21, one of the themes is centered around "tinkering"
what if we get to tinker with larger enchanting setups that are actually as fun/magical as they look?
- expand the enchanting space from 5x5x2, to 7x7x4+
- insert unique tomes to change enchantments
- reworked xp system

ultimately, the dragon fight becomes a choice to seek out, rather than pushed onto the player as a gatekeeper to the entire dimension.
The End accessibility becomes more on par with The Nether, and everything is rebalanced to abolish the current "endgame" meta

eyes of ender as rare loot, perhaps archeology, gets players curious and finding strongholds sooner.
access to The End and its resources is easier, and doesn't throw you into the dragon fight.
players can travel freely between stronghold, and outer end islands.

time for the anvil to be rebalanced to accomodate the new changes to acquiring mending!
how would you improve gameplay involving the anvil if it was rebalanced?
We all know the pain, or we just didn't bother and used mending instead.
How would you overhaul/rebalance what could be crowned as one of the most unpolished and problem filled features in the game, the anvil, so it doesn't have at least fifty different issues?

like, why would an ancient civilization choose to build in an area that's obviously dangerous, unless there's something uniquely useful about sculk they discovered? so i feel its more likely they built there first, and then something went very wrong.

Atmosphere is a really, really big deal in my book, and its a large and often partially subconscious factor that can play into peoples experiences. Besides the Warden-- even without it being present, I think it's super important to get the atmosphere right in that biome

the april fools content would make for a good mod, not the vanilla game.
the vanilla game serves as a platform to build on, and features need to go through iterations and feedback.
Microsoft isn't controlling things, this is literally just how game design works.
@TheMisterEpicYT
"and would have taken some serious development time to add"
But it really didn't. These snapshots are done in horribly hacky, fast ways in a single platform. They're easy to do (and fast to do) because we can cut all the corners we want to, quality be damned.

i think that as long as Mojang is explicit about their intentions, they should absolutely show lots of concept art. and if people still complain at that point after clear communication, its not Mojang's fault.
I'm so annoyed at all the people who complained about Mojang not adding the stuff shown in concept art because it led them to not show concepts at all anymore
And I miss seeing this part of the development process, I would've loved to see the art for the crab or the penguin

i've seen some wishes for a new boss in 1.21
imho, there's a few things i would rather see devs spend the scope on:
- revamping rails to tinker with
- combat experimental toggle
- refreshing existing combat adventure structures
- revamping the existing bosses-- the dragon fight

The End dimension as an end game, is more harmful than beneficial.
Elytra being end game, has ruined older, core-Minecrafty mechanics, particularly rails
Netherite has worsened the "god meta" and made folks more protective of their gear against meaningful changes to the game

if people dont want to go explore to find their guaranteed mending, and only dislike this change to villagers because it takes longer to get "god gear", then maybe the issue is with god gear and providing more alternatives for the player.

update size is not purely based on the visible features and how likeable they are. when you dig deeper into all the bugs that were fixed, all the new systems that had to be coded in, all the iteration on the features and their future we don't know yet-- it's much larger.
Minecraft 1.21 is NOT a small update!
A new structure, 2 new hostile mobs, a new weapon, 3 enchants, 38 blocks, 4 potions, 20 paintings, 2 trims, 2 banner patterns, 3 music discs, many new mechanics and new redstone/farms! SO MUCH!

sculk catalysts can grow sensors, sensors can trigger shriekers, shriekers can summon wardens.
