1.21 - The Update That Changed The Universe

= Minecraft: The Update That Changed The Universe =
This is an idea that has been sitting in my head for a while. I might as well post it now.
== 1.20: The Update That Changed The Universe ==
1.20 is a massive content update that brings, among other things:
* Copper armor, weapons, tools, etc.
* Rubies + armor, tools, weapons, etc.
* More technology (think steampunk-ish/Minecraft create mod)
* More biomes, mobs, etc.
* Caves and Cliffs Part 3 (basically)
* and more! The update was released on June 27th, 2024 and is currently the largest update since Caves and Cliffs. This is the first of many parallel updates, as after 1.19 (Combat, Enchanting, Adventure!) and Jeb's retirement, Mojang effectively split into two separate entities.
== Post-New World Update ==
After the release of 1.20: A New World, several people at Mojang (Dinnerbone to name one person) were unhappy with the fact that all versions were being merged into one version by effectively deleting two entire versions out of existence. And so, over half of Mojang's staff left and created Mojang Games, a different company, that aimed to undo the "One Minecraft Update" and return to how has been. Three main Minecraft versions:
* Minecraft Education
* Minecraft: Java Edition
* Minecraft: Bedrock Edition
and in addition to bringing back the multiple editions, Mojang Games brought back the Legacy Console versions of Minecraft, giving new life to them and effectively splitting the community of the game. On one side, we have the One Minecraft community, a community who thinks that there being only one version of the game is how it should be played. On the other side, we have the Minecraft Reborn community, a different community who wants Minecraft to go how it used to be before the One Minecraft update. One where the Legacy Console editions still were available to download, and the game wasn't "one version or nothing" when it came to the game. However, with Mojang being split, the workforce for 1.21 over at Mojang Studios had been decreased, and yet again they had to go hiring people.
But now, we have two Minecrafts, and we will see what changes Mojang Games have made to Minecraft again!
== Changes that were brought over from the One Minecraft Update ==
As much as many players hated the One Minecraft update (1.19.100), there were some things that were enjoyed greatly, such as the Java Friends system. And so, Mojang Games added this to the game, along with:
* Bedrock things in Java Edition (such as snowy leaves, fallen logs, and swampier swamps)
* Java things in Bedrock (crawling, unlockable recipes, command syntax, easy moddability even in C++)
However, the rest of the update sucked in over 48 million players' opinions, due to the fact that 1.19.100 killed off Java Edition.
