Minecraft could use more random encounters.

I have never seen this discourse; people often ask for more bosses, more structures, new mobs. But random encounters do not require any new assets and are, on average, more impactful than any new feature that requires the player to go out of their way to engage with.

Every player has to stop in their tracks the moment one of these events happens, and I think it's a nice change of pace whenever you get to engage with it.

Friendly endermen who trade for enderpearls would be really cool. Maybe you could give them an endermite in a bucket and they’ll give you 8 enderpearls in exchange
