Whenever I try to record my recordings always come out blurry, another issue I have is the screen resolution. It seems a bit wonky and has black bars on the side.
 
Unless you posted the wrong log, you're in the incorrect forum. OBS Multiplatform logs are found in
"%appdata%/obs-studio/logs/" and NOT in "%appdata%/OBS/logs/". If you don't have an obs-studio folder in %appdata%, you've asked for support in the wrong category. If you do have one, post the most recent log from there instead.
 
Can you post an example of how it's blurry? If you're using those settings it should look pretty good. It's not lossless, and it won't look exactly like as if you were in the game, but it should still be pretty high quality.

Here is a raw video of minecraft, as you can see the trees are not sharp and crisp as they usually are.

Dodgepong is more qualified to answer you so take his answer over mine, but I have a suggestion that I think may work.

Try running Minecraft in a 1280x720 window (you can do this by clicking "edit profile" in the launcher, checking the resolution box, and typing 1280 into the first field and 720 into the second), and setting OBS' base resolution to 1280x720 as well (under settings, it's in the video tab, just click custom and do the same thing you did with Minecraft).
Also, be sure the resolution downscale is set to "none".
 
Well, a YouTube video isn't a raw video, since YouTube re-encodes the video and compresses it. Is there a chance you can upload the actual raw output video somewhere?

I did what you suggested and it fixed the quality a bit but it still seems a bit fuzzy, here's a video of it: https://www.dropbox.com/s/jrkdinctlrg3aur/2015-08-16-1224-53.mp4?dl=0 I think that the video there is more blurry than it actually is, so if you could download it somehow you could see the actual quality

That capture actually looks really nice. I think the blurriness you see is possibly because you're viewing a 720p video fullscreen. When you view the capture at its original resolution (as I have in the attached screenshot) it looks great and the edges are quite sharp. Ignore the minor colour distortion, I had to change those to meet the 1MB upload limit.
