In addition to blocks, the environment features plants, mobs, and items. Some activities in the game include mining for ore, fighting hostile mobs, and crafting new blocks and tools by gathering various resources found in the game. The game's open-ended model allows players to create structures, creations, and artwork on various multiplayer servers or their single-player maps. Other features include redstone circuits for logic computations and remote actions, minecarts and tracks, and a mysterious underworld called the Nether. A designated but completely optional goal of the game is to travel to a dimension called the End, and defeat the ender dragon.Show more

I don't see this becoming very likely (that it would be released on here) but I'd love if GOG could preserve the original Minecraft, it's Java version. The one that built minecraft, the one that I grew to love. Bedrock is so much more locked down and we all totally remember when they were trying to move us all to Bedrock to force us to play a more in-game purchases model and mod-free model. The current owners always seemed to dislike the communities ability to add mods, yet they themselves seem to have added updates that feel a lot more like bloated mods than official updates. My favourite versions of minecraft were released before the aquatic update, specifically version 1.11.1. I miss the days before it go super popular. Before the current devs of the game wanted to get rid of allowing us to officially play any update we want, to force us to play the newest version (which I dislike by the way and don't wish to play). If GOG preserved the original Minecraft and heritage versions of the game, I would be ecstatic and massively relieved knowing the current devs couldn't just take it away from us like they have tried to do many times now. I don't love where they have taken the game and have attempted to give feedback for updates but they seem to ignore all but a small part of the community. Reminds me of how the Runescape community had to fight to get Old skool runescape back.... I love how we can add or remove mods or play vanilla or play any official version we want, that's a lot of what the Minecraft community was originally built on and it's a shame to see it shunned and tossed aside for the most part by many of the modern day devs. It's sad to see mechanics being updated and broken, in my opinion. It would be such a relief to have permanent access to the game I have so many fond memories of, playing with a couple of friends in before the devs purge Minecraft Java permanently. Bedrock is okay but I much prefer the Java version, the one that started it all.
