I started playing Minecraft in 2012, on version 1.3. That was ten years ago now but still a lot further along than the Beta versions. Today I play mostly 1.14, which is way newer but still about 4 years old. What do you think should be the cutoff between the different “eras” of MC?
I tried to give a generic overview on the side bar, and it is intentionally vague about the cutoff point because what each person sees as the “perfect” era of minecraft is subjective.
Anything above this is absolutely relevant to this community. Below is where it gets complicated.
The official releases is where it gets much more blurry, and I think as long as it is a couple years old, and you have a sense of nostalgia for it, it should count. Perhaps even more complicated is modern version that have been made to behave like alpha/beta/etc versions through mods. I think those should be included as well.
I would still count any posts you make about your 1.14 worlds as relevant to this community. But perhaps a poll would be worth doing.
I think most would disagree with me but my idea of “old school” minecraft is before the biome and terrain overhaul of 1.7
I think the hard cutoff for GoldenAgeMinecraft was 1.2.5 but the rest is basically that yeah. SilverAgeMinecraft uses anything prior to the combat update, but this is generally one of those that’s always up in the air regarding discussion.
