Some of the changes I'm happy with, such as fixing up that ugly brick texture.I forgot to say that these new textures are completely rubbish! They look like they were put in MS Paint, downscaled, upscaled again for about 5 times, then put in the game.

____It's going to force us to use Pocket Edition on all platforms (except PC, as long as you don't use Minecraft Windows 10 Edition), even though we don't want to. On another note, what does everyone think of the “Better Together” update… as a Pocket Edition user, I'm not really sure how it's going to affect the game.

I'm honestly very worried about everything along the lines of the “Better Together Update”. Let me tell you why:
1. I've been watching a lot of YouTube videos lately, and I'm noticing people talking about “console edition is going to turn into pocket edition!!!” and things like that. If it's true, then I don't like that change. Every version of MC is unique in it's own way, and I don't want one being the exact one as the other.
2. I kinda like the idea of cross-platform gaming, but the fact that the PS4 is not getting it is wrong. Come on, PS4 users don't want to buy a new console just to play with cross-platforming! SONY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
3. I've also seen some things about some platforms getting no more updates after the Better Together update (quoting ibxtoycat on this one). I really don't like that. Just because a console is old, doesn't mean they have to discontinue that version!
So, yeah. I'm a PE player, but I'm worried about this because I'm going to be very confused about what console to get if I ever want one. Besides, don't the new birch wood textures look really bad?

Yeah, but it was the right type of pixel art. These new textures don't fit in the Minecraft theme.I forgot to say that these new textures are completely rubbish! They look like they were put in MS Paint, downscaled, upscaled again for about 5 times, then put in the game.

The existing textures set neutrality between design and adventure, but these textures not only push adventure (like grimy trees), but they just don't feel right. Yeah, but it was the right type of pixel art. These new textures don't fit in the Minecraft theme.
Full agreement to your statement.
EDIT: Made the last sentence make better sense, and not be misinterpreted.

Idk why people are complaining about birch logs and diamond blocks texture changing.
it's not like people use them in good minecraft builds
btw this post isn't sarcastic, diamond blocks look horrible if it is a main block in builds

Exactly, this whole thing is just filled with issues I'm honestly very worried about everything along the lines of the “Better Together Update”. Let me tell you why:

If it's true, then I don't like that change. Every version of MC is unique in it's own way, and I don't want one being the exact one as the other.
Sony seems to think that cross platform play will make their users switch to the xbox one or nintendo switch, even though a lack of cross platform play might cause that exact same thing. 2. I kinda like the idea of cross-platform gaming, but the fact that the PS4 is not getting it is wrong. Come on, PS4 users don't want to buy a new console just to play with cross-platforming! SONY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
ibxtoycat on this one). I really don't like that. Just because a console is old, doesn't mean they have to discontinue that version!well, online subscriptions will be required on consoles (which ironically means that it's the worst to play on Microsoft's console despite Microsoft owning the game) so consoles are worse to play on ( 3. I've also seen some things about some platforms getting no more updates after the Better Together update (quoting
they are not discontinuing the xbox 360 version (the only one mentioned), they are only discontinuing the xbox one and switch, they will update the xbox 360 version as long as xbox 360 games can be updated. But still, i like the current console version better.
So, yeah. I'm a PE player, but I'm worried about this because I'm going to be very confused about what console to get if I ever want one.

yeah, it's kinda too blurry for me Besides, don't the new birch wood textures look really bad?

I don't really get what this means, but I'm assuming you're correct…

birch logs and diamond blocks texture changing.Idk why people are complaining about
But when you chop down trees, you can see it. Anyways, the birch is too blurry for me.
I have mixed feelings with the diamond block changes. Can anyone help me out?
THIS WAS EDITED BECAUSE SR0056 MADE A SPELLING ERROR
