List of 6 Minecraft features that deserve an update

1) End realm

The End is arguably the biggest feature that Mojang should update in Minecraft. Over the past five years, the developers have added loads of new features to the Nether and the Overworld, but have completely ignored the End in previous updates.

Hence, the End realm can use a complete overhaul with new terrain generation, structures, vegetation, and mobs. Updating the End will urge players to revisit the currently barren dimension.


2) Polar bear

Polar bears are considered one of the most useless mobs in Minecraft. They are neutral in nature and will attack players if they have a cub around or if they are attacked. Upon death, they only drop some XP and raw cod or salmon. They are primarily present in the game as an ambient mob.

Hence, these creatures can also receive loads of fresh features like new taming and breeding mechanics, and using their fur for new items.


3) Cold Plains biome

Snowy Plains is a desolate biome that can also be improved with some new features. It is quite barren, with nothing but snow layers. Since it is a cold biome, most farm animals do not spawn in it either.

Hence, Mojang can add fresh features to it, particularly a secret structure with loads of new enemies. A new structure will pull players towards the biome.


4) Creeper

The Creeper has been in Minecraft ever since the game was officially released. Despite being old, the mob has not received any major updates, simply because it is iconic at what it does in the game.

However, Mojang can still add some new features to the mob to make it even better. One of the best changes they can make is to create different creepers based on different biomes. For example, a desert creeper can be beige and light brown in color, so that it can camouflage with the environment and attack players.


5) Animation of older mobs

Though this is not a proper in-game feature, mob animations can also be considered an outdated feature for some old creatures. Since newer mobs have a lot better animations, they look vastly different and disconnected from older mobs.

This is why Mojang should bring major updates to mob animations, and particularly add more fluid movements to older mobs like creepers, zombies, villagers, cows, sheep, etc.


6) Name tag

Name tags are rare items that can be found as chest loot in various structures and can also be found while fishing. It has a single purpose of naming mobs in the game. Since it is such a simple item, Mojang should make it craftable. Furthermore, they should also add a new feature where a name tag drops from a mob if it dies. These features will make the item a lot more usable.
