Does anyone else prefer the old look of water? I notice that the latest update (presumably the water effect is tied to the viewer you are using) has a snazzy new appearance to water. It's nice and all, but because it's so much more realistic looking than everything around it, it looks out of place and eerie.

hehe, not so very realistic, I think I have a store that is built on a dock over water, and noticed someone under the store on the minimap so I went down to see who it was and while doing so I noticed that if I tilt the camera up to look at someone their face (he was afk and looking down, btw) is reflected on the water above him. I think the water looks pretty neat, but that effect was a dealbreaker for me in terms of realism. There are others, but that one is new and really got my attention. |

Ripple water and the reflecting looking up at the surface has been there ever since I joined (Edit / Preferences, Graphics Detail, Ripple Water). It was just turned off by default but with the 1.14 viewer it's on by default if the videocard supports it . |

The water changed? That explains why I cannot see my fish any more.
The water seems much less transparent.
