Dude. Getting into your brain on game design is possibly one of the most interesting things to me ever.

So first off I wanted to say that I'm really happy with the changes you've made to armor early game. The feeling of progression from wool to leather or padding armor (depending on choices you make) feels very interesting and satisfying. I feel like the differences between Iron and Diamond vs Steel f...

Hey man awesome release. Just wondering but why don't you like the idea of people trapping zombie villagers to cure later? It seems like that's exactly what you incentivised with the way you made the previous changes.

I'm not actually sure how to get that information given you neutered the debug screen... :)

-Was this chunk already generated when you exited the portal? It was initial generation first time through this portal. -Any chance it was somehow generated with a newer version of MC? I can't see how. Only BTW has ever touched this save -Was this a client attached to a multiplayer server that crash...

Since I've started playing again I was going over the old change logs and noticed this: January 18th, 2014: Changed Brimstone to be used to increase the potency of potions rather than glowstone dust to create more of a progression to when you gain access to more powerful potions January 10, 2018: Ad...

I'm unclear on the villager curing mechanics. I blasted a couple zombie villagers with 9 soul urns and they didn't turn. Is there something else I need to do besides the urns that wasn't mentioned? Was I just unlucky? Or do I need way more urns than I thought?

For comparison minecarts give 30 nuggets

Melting down a dead weight game me only 5 iron nuggets. Is this intentional? It seems like a very small amount of iron for such a large appearing object and also barely even worth an inventory slot to bring back while exploring.

V4.A7 Just had a crash on emerging from a nether portal. I was able to reload and was on the overworld side of that portal. There was an abandoned village in sight. There were no villagers to be found there. Crash Report follows. Not sure if this might be a bug related to villager changes. ---- Mine...

Man the sprint jumping changes really bit me. Going to have to change some of my habits I think.

In regards to the pumpkin spawn changes does that mean the pumpkins I got searching around spawn are no longer legitimate?

Bug reports are not for conversation. Read the subforum rules guys.

2. Allowing barrels to be used as a no-gui inventory Not sure I understand what purpose this is supposed to serve. Sounds almost like a cheap non-filtered Hopper alternative. Is there something here that you had in mind that I didn't catch? He's basically looking for something like the many barrel ...

I agree that they pose very little danger if you're slow and methodical. I tend to clear one out early game for the wood and iron (no one mentioned that yet, they net several stacks of ingots too). It's just one of those things where you really can't get ahead of yourself. I close off a passage, cl...

Such a wonderful quality of life improvement especially when you have many furnaces. Thank you so much for adding that.

I feel like with all the hardcore changes to the early game the fact that you can craft sandstone out of sand from your starting inventory feels a little strange and especially that you can craft all the varieties given the general trend of aesthetic choices being unlocked by progression. Maybe some...

I feel like you guys are dramatically overstating the risks. The hallway aspect makes it easy to tell where threats might come from and the wood arches make it easy to block off a passage. The spiders are deadly yes but infrequent and can generally be nullified with a few pieces of dirt. I feel safe...

Mineshafts seem quite common. I almost always find one in my search for diamonds. Once I do I am delighted it means melons (probably pumpkins too) and it is easier to secure for mining than regular caves as a single block of dirt blocks any path. The biggest thing that concerns me is how good a sour...

Even in hollywood bad guys duking it out seems fairly standard. I don't know where the Team Evil thing comes from really.

What if Steve was a good man where he came from who was imprisoned unjustly and playing through BTW is his 'Breaking Bad' story?

Ok counterpoint time...

The undead monsters and hellspawn that appear around steve are clearly not his friends as they persistently try to kill him.

Perhaps Steve is the victim here. He is being imprisoned and tortured, but not for long. Perhaps he will not be welcomed when he returns home.

With the work in entanglement we will have much quicker communications but the travel might take forever. AFAIK this is a common misunderstanding and under known physics entanglement cannot be used to transmit data faster than light. Although we certainly haven't figured out all physics. Does anyon...

Don't use daemon when you mean demon (unless of course you think this is the warhammer universe/unix simulation)

:)

That brings us to the counterpoint section. The creatures that spawn in his presence are hostile to him, including the creatures of hell. Perhaps hell portal summoning is something anyone can do with those ingredients (sure... right...) Perhaps this world is a prison where Steve is being tortured. A...
