I like achievements. I know a lot of people don`t, but I like them. I`ve had the idea to make achievements kind of like the in-game questing. So you`d be able to see the first achievement in a tree of achievements, and you unlock the top ones first before you can unlock the ones further down. So the first one might be to chop down a tree, or kill a chicken, and then these branch into more things you can do. Hopefully it would encourage people to try new areas. It could converge into a big task, like kill a dragon or something, which would put a kind of narrative into the achievement tree.

Overview
Achievements could previously be completed in any game mode, including Creative Mode. An exception are the console editions where, presumably because of how they are universal, they can only be earned in worlds that have not been created or saved in creative mode or with host privileges active. There are currently:
34 achievements in the PC edition
73 achievements in Minecraft: Pocket Edition and Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition
80 achievements in the Xbox 360 Edition, Xbox One Edition and Minecraft: Wii U Edition.
81 trophies in the PlayStation 3 Edition, PlayStation 4 Edition and PlayStation Vita Edition.
Achievements were added to Minecraft on April 19, 2011, in the Beta version 1.5 update. The Beta 1.4 update was originally intended to include achievements and statistics; however, implementation was pulled from the release because it was not yet functional. It was implemented in the following update instead.
As of 1.7.1, achievements are separate for each world. Thus, there is a separate record of the player`s achievements in each individual world (e.g. achievements in a creative mode world do not carry over to a Hardcore Mode world). The achievements in the Console Editions use the trophies and/or badges built into the operating system of the console, so they are not specific to each world and can be viewed without having to open Minecraft.
Achievements do not grant the player any in-game perks or bonuses. They are merely a novelty or (on console versions) a way of showing other players which predetermined goals have been reached.
Interface
Minecraft`s achievement system involves a tree composed of achievements, some of which are prerequisites for others. Originally the interface showed the achievement tree on the left and a `mini-map` of the tree on the right. The mini-map was removed in the final version which now simply shows the tree. The background of the tree mimics the world with: sand at the top, dirt spanning below, bedrock at the bottom, and ores distributed as they would be in the world.
List of Achievements
Note: for more complex achievements, a link has been provided.
All Minecraft Versions
The achievements in the following table are obtainable in all versions of Minecraft unless noted otherwise.
