    While I can't say if the game is better or worse than what it was in Alpha, I can say I had a much more enjoyable experience back in the Alpha days. Maybe that could be chalked up to nostalgia, but personally, I think it was because how the game was more or less a mystery to us. Digging out that first diamond was something to remember, the fear of the dark was bigger, the threat of dying made sure you knew where your house was if you died, digging out a hole in the wall to look for coal was the ideal way to spend the first night, dungeons seemed like an impossible task, and so on so forth.
     
    Nowadays? We know all the little details of the game, and the ideal way of going about our survival. Charcoal and beds have diminished the threat of night, and we know the ideal way of finding diamonds. The difficulty doesn't scale well, and the mobs require additional bonus's in order to be threatening. Stacking foods has made it easier to recover health, and potions give you an inmate advantage over the rest of the game, and other players, if in a multiplayer server. People use mods to try and replicate the feeling of the unknown, but with not all too much success, depending on the user and the mod. 
     
    This is all my opinion, and your free to your own, but this is really the main reason I can't find that much enjoyment in Minecraft anymore.

    Hunger is pointless once you've set up a home and everything. There are so many food items that dying from starvation or low health because of starvation seem utterly stupid. Also, I could travel to the edge of the Minecraft map and never run out of food, because I can just slaughter every cow, pig and chicken I see. Pass through a jungle or two and you get melons with ease. Villages have wheat, carrots and potatoes, yet more easy food. It's only ever an issue to new players who don't know how to deal with hunger.
     
    Potions are needlessly hard to acquire but have a nasty habit of screwing up the already iffy Minecraft PvP side of things. Nether fortresses are a nice addition to an otherwise boring Nether but unless you know that they spawn regularly mainly in the Z coordinate, you could spend forever looking and never finding one, and even then you need to hope there's a Blaze Spawner and a nether farm there. PvP in Minecraft was always rather one-sided, whoever has the best enchantments wins, but potions mean you can just spam instant harming II or instant healing II and that's it.
     
    To go off on a tangent, I HATE the MCMMO plugin. On a server with PvP matches in which everyone gets the same equipment, someone with a high MCMMO skill can instantly kill other players, no matter what armour they wear or what enchantments they have on their weapons. Higher ranks also introduce effects that are completely overpowered, like blanking out your entire screen with the nether portal effect for 10 seconds or poisoning you or giving you enchantment effects without the need of enchanting your weapons.

    Nu hat get! Couldn't afford any of the Brims on sale, so I settled for a Slouch. Think my friend will like it, Blizzardy looks nice IMO.

    Even if the founding fathers used Christian principals when they came up with the laws doesn't mean we should necessarily continue in that. Would you rather we still lived in a world where women don't have the right to vote?

    I'd say that "we should do this because some guys 200 years ago wanted it that way" is a very silly argument

    I don't think that's what he meant-I think he was talking more about how we can't know what exactly they were attempting to do when they made the laws, or at least what the spirit of the laws originally were.  That's a big part of the whole second amendment debate-there's multiple ways of interpreting it, and due to the fact that technology's advanced so much in the two centuries since, it's incredibly vague about what it does/should mean.

    First:
     
     
    You obviously don't see the same shit I do, because I see just as much "Liberal god-hating Socialists!" stuff as I do that.
     
    Second:
     
    They're seen that way because the extreme conservatives ARE that way. They may be the vocal minority, but unfortunately that vocal minority are the people IN OFFICE right now. Half or more of conservative legislatures are either stalling progress in Congress because they lost a vote but still don't want a bill passed, or legislatures with the intent of making gays and women 2nd class citizens at best.
     
    A further 1/4 (that overlaps somewhat with that second bit) are based entirely on Christian beliefs ("Nope, Abortion is wrong. Don't give a fuck you're not a Christian and we're supposed to keep religion out of the government I wanna ban it").
     
    The last 1/4 is a mixed bag of good and bad, like anything else.
     
    Not saying liberals are all sunshine and roses but at least they don't show quite as much of the astonishing level of bigotry and ignorance as extreme conservatives do.

    Scout mains: Have a comp history, and thus have a strong hatred for crits and have a stock-or-go mentality; the more "advanced" Scout mains will also only play 5CP and Gravelpit. They usually do not use mic or chat at all, unless they come up against an equally skilled opposing scout main. The Scout versus Scout fight is sacred, so let the trashtalking commence
     
    Soldier mains: If you're not pubstomping you aren't having fun. Any loss, no matter how close, will be blamed on their team's incompetence. Are often accompanied by their own personal pocketmedic and will suck up to other medics so they can add them to their evergrowing friendslist of dialup healing sources. As with the Scout main, an encounter with a fellow Soldier main wil result in a flurry of failed airshots
     
    Pyro mains: Once pressed m2 in the general direction of a rocket and are now the kings of TF2. Will constantly complain about how Valve hates their class, and every new unlock addition is greeted with an article about how it makes the pyro less good in some way. They live in a hierarchy of elitism depending on primary, going Degreaser < Flamethrower < Backburner and are currently publishing a book about why their primary is best
     
    Demoman mains: come in two flavors. The Demoknight main is stuck on a permanent level of noskill, and finds comfort by telling themselves they score low because they're "just joking around". The only players who actually want to play with random crits on. Stickydemos strictly play competitive, but will come down from the heavens once in a while to obliterate an entire server together with their team's Medic, in the same way a fat guy eats a bag of crisps by the handfull.
     
    Heavy mains: are always Highlander players. Are in extreme denial about their class' skill requirement and will defend it at all costs. Occasional very, very new players also main Heavy, but surpass its skill ceiling after about 50 hours and go to another class.
     
    Engineer mains: Come in two flavors. Stock Sentry Engineers are often new, low-skill players, but there are many outliers who have spent hundreds of hours maintaining their precious sentry nests. These players live a feng-shui lifestyle, content with their low skill level and content with defending the objective while others go out and have fun. Don't mention soldiers or demomen to them, however. Minisentry Engineers are the antithesis of their stock brethren: they live to ruin other players' fun. Armed with Pomson and Short Circuit they set out to koth servers to feed on the opposing team's tears. They see the low skill ceiling as an upside, since it leaves one hand free for other more throbbing matters.
     
    Medic mains: contain 90% of the female TF2 players, as Medic is the most bishie of the TF2 mercs. Although the vast majority of them has a friendslist full of sugardaddies to cling onto and rack points, there is a minor few who stands through the shittyness of the average pubber and tries to actually medic a whole team even if that results in less points and more shittalk. These brave warriors should be applauded and will not be ridiculed even on this satire-ridden list. Although medic still takes zero skill.
     
    Sniper mains: live on the concept of big-fish-small-pond. Too shitty to play realistic shooters, they hide in TF2 and nourish on its incredibly forgiving headshot hitbox and a lack of much opposing sniper skill. Sniper mains never communicate with other players as that would waste time that could be spent upping their k/d, the only thing that fills the void in their heart just a little bit.
     
    Spy mains: Invented elitism. The fact alone that they pressed 9 in the class select menu makes them better than all other players on the server. If there are 3 or more Spies on their team they will be the loudest to complain that people should switch class, yet the least likely to actually switch themselves. Ironically are very similar to their nemesis Pyro mains in that they love to complain about how bad their class is and how much Valve hates them
