i like b1.7.3, it has just enough stuff to let me be all creative, but such little stuff that it forces me to use what i have to make a good looking house or something. and the lighting system, the healing system, world generation, just everything is perfect.

i think that 1.16 was objectively the best one the game has gotten in a very very long time... but man the hype i felt when 1.4 came out, that might be my personal fav so far...

my favorite was 1.8.9 its right around the time when i was old enough to actually enjoy it 

i still play hypixel and not a lot of people are on anymore but it makes me feel sooooo nostalgic 

i miss old mc i made so many friends on there back in the day. i started playing in 2010 when i was like 4 LOL 

I really liked the ocean update, it gave so muhc more content and still somewhat felt like og minecraft

The Aquatic Update was 1.13 (replying to the person under me) it was rlly good tho

My favorite update has to be the pillage and village update or whatever, I can do vanilla wars in minecraft and make lore teehee

I see myself playing 1.19.2 a lot though

but on multiplayer it's 1.8.9

I don't have a fav update but if I do it will be the neter update

I like each and every new update.

My favorite has to be beta 1.3, solely because of beds, it made the game way more easier lmao. 

B1.7.3 MAKES ME HAPPY

A1.1.0 MAKES ME HAPPY

1.8.9 MAKES ME HAPPY

1.13 MAKES ME HAPPY

aquatic update. it annoyed me to be able to catch the fish but not seeing them as mobs in the game

I distinctly remember the day that the Xbox 360 edition received the update which brought in villager trading for the first time! I thought the emerald was such a cool new addition! The emerald block was, especially back then, quite the luxury item! 

some of my PC favorites are beta 1.7.3 (which i would really love to have a full playthrough with), 1.6 (horses), and 1.17-1.18 (caves & cliffs pt1/2, before completely underwhelming versions like the wild update). my least favorite addition are villagers and pillagers, i think it detracts from the introspective and isolated feel of the game & also disrupts the balancing a ton.

for console, it's probably around TU30 before bountiful update content like granite/andesite/diorite, which is around when i first played the game and includes my favorite tutorial world from TU19.

could also be right around when minigames & realms were added to xbox one edition, which is still the version i have the most hours on (1468 vs 998 on windows 10 edition vs probably around the same on modern java edition versions as they released).

I could say that my favorite update was 1.13. I was totally amazed when they added so many things to the ocean

unpopular pick but 1.20 tbh. i loooooove archaeology and cherry groves and the new bamboo blocks and smithing templates and chiseled bookshelves!!! i finally went and excavated a ruin a few days ago and it's the most fun i've had in this game in years

definitely 1.14

Honestly, 1.12.2, cause as great as the flattening is, it did cause many, many, many good mods to drop out, and after that, the remaining ones changed into a very different style that I just don't really like, you know? Worldedit pre-flattening sucks tho

i feel like the game’s big resurgence was 1.16.

 it was such a big update and i feel like it got so many people back into the game, especially youtubers and the popularity of the dream smp throughout covid

it also just included a lot of really good mechanics giving more of a meaning to the nether with the biomes and netherite.

no other minecraft updates seem to have as much in them since 1.16 and minecraft needs to do more with dimensions as they seem to be playing it too safe and not really changing the game by adding much in recent updates that’s actually useful.

Its got 2 be 1.17 i loved the new caves

1.16, new ones are... not as good

1.8

Have to agree with 1.16 it was such a fun update

1.13 was a game changer.

1.16 was PEAK

I really loved 1.14 (Village and Pillage)

1.16.5 is the last best version of minecraft ever

1.7.10 or 1.8.6 The mod packs written for those versions were soooo insane like Feed The Beast. Never had more fun and been more addicted to minecraft in my life.

Now that microsoft has stolen my property from me (my minecraft account) and installed virus backdoors into the game, there is only bloxd.io for me now which is a far cry from the glory days of minecraft, but still fun.

Being honest i kind miss the old combat system! its more easy to spam attack! ;p

1.14 without this update Villages would still suck

hehe for me it was DEFINTELY 1.16 . it was the midst of 2020 aswell so EVERYONE was playing it . it was the first update to add a unique disk from c14s collection and have it a biome exclusive disk too . and it made the nether so kewl !!! and new armour aswell and building blocks and new ways to obtain items . all and all it was a huge update that fully revamped the nether for the better and its awsomsauce !
