Minecraft was officially released over a decade ago on 18 November 2011. In all these years, the game has received countless updates changing the look and feel of almost everything.
Updates are necessary to improve already existing features as well as add some new ones. Often, developers also have to remove features that aren’t needed anymore or have a better alternative. However, while doing so, developers have eliminated many facets which were used and loved by fans.
This article shares some of the removed features players would love to see again in Minecraft.

5) Rubies

<p>In Minecraft’s early days, developers were thinking of adding a currency for villager trading. Ruby was originally planned to be used for village trading but was discarded at the last moment. Instead of rubies, emeralds were added to Minecraft.</p>
<p>Even though emeralds share the same purpose as rubies, many players want rubies to be added back. Blocks of rubies have a beautiful red texture not found in any other block.</p>
<h3>4) Customized world type</h3>
<p>Customized world types were added to Minecraft for a brief amount of time during 1.8 snapshots. With this feature, players were able to create custom worlds with any kind of world generation. It was available as an in-game feature during that time.</p>

<p>At one point in Minecraft, horse armor was made craftable for only a few snapshots. Horse armor was crafted using four diamonds, iron ingots, or gold ingots and a block of wool. This feature was added in edition 1.6.1 through snapshot 13w16a but was quickly removed in 13w18a.</p>
<p>Many players want horse armor to be craftable since they are treasure items and thus can be rare to find.</p>
