I HATE THAT HEDGEHOG, BROTHER!


Each of the four places are various times in the Minecraft universe. The one you start on is the present. You (or you and friends) work on building your world into something good.

The Nether is actually many many years in the future, after a monstrous apocalypse has overcome the Minecraft world. Those "nether structures" are actually abandoned structures from the previous people who built them, and populating this hellish future is Pigmen (fused mutation from pigs and zombies), Ghasts (mutated chickens), Blazes (mutated slimes) and Magma Cubes (some kind of weird fused mutation of Creepers and Skeleton Archers). Spiders, sheeps and cows have long since become extinct. The land, covered in lava and fire, can no longer support water or plants, except for the mysterious Netherwart. Obviously some kind of mutation from one of the plants from the present time.

The End is is just that: The end of time. Set thousands upon thousands of years even further into the future than The Nether, the land is now nothing but flat plains of sand, the fires and lava long since extinguished. The previously scorched inhabitants of the Minecraft world, thought destroyed when the apocalypse happened, were actually living underground in the Nether, barely surviving for these thousands of years. Mutation from the apocalypse caused their appearance to change drastically, allow them to not die of old age, and gave them a few powers, like increased speed, never having to eat again and the ability to teleport. In The End time, they have finally come out of hiding and now long to go back to how they used to live. So they pick up the never ending sand and move it around, wanting to build the vast structures that once populated the planet. It is futile of course, because they are no longer the men and women they once were. Just mere shadows of their past selves. The only oddity in this time is the sudden appearance of the the dragons, who seem slightly out of place in this empty, depressing world.

If they Sky dimension ever gets added, clearly the sky dimension is the future AFTER The End as well as the time before the present. The dragons, with their ability to easily destroy anything in their path and mysterious magical abilities, must also be balanced out with the ability to CREATE, most likely picked up from the Endermen. So they wipe out the Endermen, but start to rebuild the world, and soon they create the Beginning Times (Sky Dimension). Eventually everything cycles back to how it is in the present. And, as man tends to do sometimes, ends up causing the extinction of these mighty creatures. Circle of Life and all that.

And then we play god, and build portals (time machines if you will) and cause some things to leak out, hence the Endermen's sudden appearance in our world.

E: And then the enderman looked me in the eye and bent down towards my erect blockpenis. His mouth opened from the side and a mouth filled with purple light split across his face. Then he winked at me and I realized this was no enderman, it was an enderlady! As she took my penis into her mouth I was filled with fuzzy warmth and purple particles popped out all over. Then the enderlady teleported away, leaving me with a puckered red hole where once I had a blockpenis. Thus began my quest for a new, stronger, better blockpenis.

Ender dragon looks stupid. The animation is great, but they basically couldn't figure out how to get it to land and take off nicely and factor it all into decent pathing so they just copped out and said WHAT IF THE DRAGON JUST DELETES BLOCKS?? Just adding to the terrible mishmash of one-off flavor and gimmicks that is the minecraft universe.

Notch specifically said that he'll be making more dragons in the future that can actually land and poo poo. He was saying that he wants this dragon to be brutually hard, near-impossible to kill. So I guess it fits that he just destroys anything he flies near. It will also be in the ender, where you wont give a poo poo that it's destroying the landscape (I think the landscape will be different enough so he doesn't really run into it much)

Oh did he? I didn't know he was planning on making different kinds of dragons. If that's the case, I wonder if we'll be able to breed dragons somehow so we could get a smaller one that can fly/glide and we can use a saddle on? I'll be Chocoboin all up ons

I hope there is at least one block type that cannot break. Making an obsidian cage with a dragon inside would be absolutely badass.
