I was thinking that some new particles could make the game a bit more lively.I thought that having 3D particles could also help the game look more alive as well. My main ideas for these particles include, smoke, water drops, dust clouds, crumbling dirt, bubbles, wood chips, sparkles, and lava bubbles. Some ways in which I think these should be used include water drops from water falls/ jumping into water, wood chips for chopping wood with an axe, sparkles from mining mese and diamond ore, etc. They can be toggled individually through the advanced settings menu and are true to the "particles" option in the basic options page. Point stated, I definitely think the game is due for some new particles.

3d entities can already be used instead of particles.

Compared to particles entities have horrible performance, don't do it.
