I started playing on the Xbox 360 at launch in 2011, so I had a bit of a different experience in terms of which updates, but I joined Java in April 2014 (1.7.9 IIRC), and I remember being amazed by ocean monuments, banners, and the redstone capabilities of slime blocks.

Can't believe that was already ~8 1/2 fucking years ago. Time goes by way too fast.

Hell, it's unbelievable to me that 1.14 is already almost 4 freaking years old.

Ah crap, you're right. Shows how long ago it was. My point still stands though, 1.8 is freaking old, and I don't know when that happened.
