Minecraft 1.8: How are you enjoying it so far?

[Kriptonite]

I really like the update, it's made Minecraft challenging again when starting. It's also done something that's been lacking for a bit: it's a=scary now. The Skeletons are better, Creepers have larger blast radius,{footnote}Radius' Radi? I'm not sure.{/footnote} and Endermen are just plain creepy. Ravines are tons of fun, scary as well, and I like the new stone coloration. I have yet to find a dungeon, NPC village, Silverfish(?), or big mushrooms but they all sound interesting. I have run into those little bastard spiders though, and I hate, HATE, them. As for everyone complaining about the food bar, I kinda like it. Especially that it regenerates health when full. So, there you go, for anyone that actually reads this, that's what I think of the new Minecraft.

I love that enemys attack each other now. I fell in a ravine, before 9 skeles, one shot another by accedent, and they got in a brawl, and ignored me completely. xD

Its kinda cool, but if im being totally honest i really havent played it much, maybe beacuse i put so many ours into my main world and brin myself to star anew.

liking it a lot so far. Didnt have a whole lot of time to put on it..
Found a river, a ravine, a swampland (lots of mushrooms and vines on trees). I like the new colored lights. Plus the terrain generator seem to give more spectacular environments, and with the enlarged biomes it looks better too.

Im still hoping to find one of these strongholds, npc village and abandoned mines.

Gotta say, I'm enjoying it quite a bit, although the hunger-meter is starting to dampen my enjoyment.

I'll tell you now, the Endermen are shit-yourself creepy. They're scary even when you know they can't get you. Just to see them stare directly at you from any distance when you hover the crosshair over them, and for them to rapidly teleport in your direction with the intent on doing nasty things to you is terrifying to behold.

You're one of few that actually finds them scary. I've found them to be pretty much harmless, I swear they have less health and attack than zombies, which sadly negates the scare factor completely.

I Quite like it. However, i miss the snow...

One thing i don't like is the New map generator thing. Trees for miles! On a flat surface! Yay! Admittedly that's good for building, but gets pretty boring when the urge to explore comes in. It doesn't get better when you walk out the biome, its the same just with no trees xD

But i like the hunger meter, it's added more to the game. Im yet to find a Village XD

I Wish Endermen worked in SMP aswell....

It would be a lot nicer with more work. But of course the game is unfinished.

I'd like to see Poo-stick physics in-game. Y'know, water acts like water, not blue translucent custard.

There are dirty great cliffs all over mine.

OT: Addicted again.

My experience with 1.8 has been getting lost in a stronghold I spawned near.
