I disagree. The entire game should be like the opening to Spaceballs, only a never ending flock of owls in space.

5 months from now, I will publish a paper on an efficient method for rendering millions of owls to a screen. The rest of the computer science community will ask me why anyone would ever need to do that.

In our lifetime, we will see computers advance and be able to render much more on screen than they do now.

Whether they are space owls, space Krakens, or both.

Thats not a little extra coding, thats hours of extra coding and modeling. I like your ideas, but they are not futuristically themed. Whats the point in having a dragon to battle when you can just kill it in 1 second with a huge plasma beam or blow it up with a laser tank?

It is a good point, though wasting a huge plasma beam on a tinny dragon is somewhat power inefficient ...

Because evil NPC scientists enhance mobs genetically and make them more evil because they're evil.

I found this cool mod just now.

http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1521567-146sspsmp-alien-vs-predator-294/

I mainly like this because the Xenomorph has a really awesome model, and if you put down a predator they will fight :)

But it is a futuristic mod, and if some planets had cool looking Zenopmorphs on them, well, WHY NOT?

I actually found that mod with this mod

http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1608832-146-forge-ingame-mod-list-also-works-on-147/

in game mod list which will take you to the page of the mod, and tells you whether or not you need forge. It unfortunately is not an auto-installer, like they have in CIv 5, maybe one day... I like it.
