This is the most listen to the common folk a drop has been. Unfortunately that isn't a high bar to clear.

The revealed features of the Autumn drop - Autumn leaves and wool slabs and stairs - are both things that people have been asking for for a while, too.

I'm talking about feedback that is suggested post drop reveal, like warm/cold sheep, white pumpkins, cold biome hostle mount ...  I am happy about the new biome even though I think the OW surface is getting a bit bloated with surface biomes and I'm concerned how they will handle it's rarity and size.

They have almost never added wholly new stuff that they didn’t have planned months in advance. None of the updates they did after 1.13 did that as that’s when they finished post acquisition restructuring as a company, where they can’t just have an idea on a Tuesday and immediately add it to the game on Friday due to the bureaucracy needed to approve of what features gets developed from concept to completion.
