-
The old Nether felt more like Hell, whereas the new Nether feels like it’s own new fantasy land, especially thanks to the Warped and Crimson forests and the Piglins.
-
new ones are just more polished, but the old ones always give you that nostalgic feeling.
-
What really made the nether scarier upon it's first inception besides the textures is the lighting that was more similar to the overworld. Meaning it could actually get really dark, and you need torches to see anything. Imagine what the nether would look like today with true darkness.
-
Old netherrack: sharp broken sheets of shale covered in blood New netherrack: smooth river stone but red
-
Anyone else still nostalgic for the old water and rain sounds? For some reason those embody the nostalgia of Minecraft's golden age for me the most.
-
I remember when the cows made different sounds. Anyone also remember when lava had a different pattern? (It changed from red to yellow rather than being mostly orange.) The old gravel textures bring me back, too. Remember when they were used as villager paths? Ahh… memories!
-
I use the packs “Programmer Art” and “Programmer Art Extended.” It updates all the new textures to look like the old ones.
-
I feel like while sure old Netherrack fits the old Nether aesthetic where it was supposed to be hell. The texture does look like an eyesore after seeing it a couple of time, and with the current Nether being more focused on exploration instead of just finding a fortress and leave, having a texture with a lot of noise like the old netherrack can get uncomfortable for the eyes after spending too much time in the nether.
-
I jumped back into Minecraft around 1.14 or 15 after a few years away. I didn't even notice the textures were updated until I saw other videos talking about it long after. Whenever I see the old ones my reaction is always something along the lines of, "This is what it used to look like? It didn't seem like this much of an eyesore."
-
The old Netherrack always looked like flesh, bone, and stone to me. I liked that. The new texture looks like red rocks. Nothing too special about that
-
Sand is my biggest issue, I honestly cannot tell distance or elevation in a desert biome now but I remember that it was quite easy back before the change.
-
I miss the old crop textures a lot too. Wheat in particular. The new one just doesn’t feel right.
-
My favorite texture is the text to image where every block is white and has a name on it, really balanced, really colorful
-
I like the retro indie feel of the old textures. Goes in line with the fact that the world is made up with cubes.
-
I always liked the old Netherrack. It looked like it was straight out of Doom.
-
tbh, i don't understand the modern crusade against jagged, noisy or high contrast art styles. The laser focus on smoothing away all the detail is really silly IMO. I obviously prefer the older textures overall, the new ones aren't bad but they all feel bland and identical, even if some of the old textures were just recolours. I also like the cobbled together indie feel of the old textures more, the new ones just feel more corporate
-
Only thing about new textures are that some blocks that are supposed to be not flat (stone, logs etc.) are too undercontrasted. If they are a bit more contrasted, you will actually get the feel of their respective surfaces.
-
I do like the new textures. But the old villager textures are so versatile for maps. I remember how you could use a white coat villager as a scientist in a map. So a feature that allows you to spawn in the old villagers would be pretty cool.
-
A thing I liked about the old netherack texture was that it was kinda ambiguous as to what it really was. Was it a red rock? Red rock with blood on it? Or was it more like flesh and raw meat? The only new textures I like are glass because now you can actually see through it. As for the melon i think just making it a darker green rather than yellowish green would fix the old one. Overall the older textures are better in my opinion.
