I’ve been super inspired by all the gradient roofs I see lately on Twitter (looking at you, Robella) so I wanted to try it. Mizuno’s is a tricky pack to color match with, but this reminds me of a sunset and I’m super happy with it.
hi so i heard about it, then i got this ask and went to go listen, and. one. you have to get this disc by crafting nine pieces of it together that you get in an ancient city. and then it sounds like THAT.
so theyve released a new snapshot featuring the warden and i just watched someone hit it 20+ times with a netherite sharpness 5 sword before it died 😃 we’re all going to die
this is literally the end for all of us
unfriendly reminder it takes 2 hits for them to take you out while wearing full netherite armor
Hi I’m Shade, a person who thinks a normal amount about Minecraft worldbuilding and especially things related to death mechanics and mob lore, and here is a non-exhaustive list of things about today’s 1.19 snapshot that are making me LOSE MY MIND:
- The Darkness effect: When a Warden or a Skulk Shrieker is near, the light levels dim and creep in around light sources in pulses of darkness. Which is very cool on its own, but the fact that it only happens in the Deep Dark, a biome that can only spawn under y = 0, aka where the Void used to be pre-1.18 - are the Wardens heralds of the Void? Do they bring its remnants to wrap around the player as a threat, as a warning, as a plea to leave while they still can? I have so many questions about these decisions there are such implications to them
- Actually, the Deep Dark in general? FULL of implications. The ancient cities of those who delved too greedily and too deep… Did the former residents get overcome by the Void seeping through the bedrock below? Are the Wardens themselves the former residents, guarding the place against anyone who might have the same deadly hubris they did and try to make a home there? They don’t want you there. They guard a thing unseen, with sightless eyes and tearing hands, but it sees you. They can feel it seeing you. You need to leave. For your own sake.
- The only mob that spawns in the Deep Dark is the Warden. Nothing else. The ground is so cursed and infected that even the monsters won’t set foot there. That’s terrifying - imagine walking through a cave as usual, with the faint growl of zombies and skeleton clatters in the distance, and then the first indication that you might have gone too far is just this slowly creeping awareness of absolute silence.LOSING it.
- THE NEW XP MECHANICS. The Skulk Catalysts absorb xp and using it to replicate - but the thing is, they don’t take the xp as it falls. No, the things that die near Catalysts just straight up don’t drop xp at all. Their essence is absorbed directly into the Catalysts and used to create more Skulk. Mojang. Mojang. Do these unnervingly sentient funguses eat souls. DOES THE STRANGELY ALIVE VOID PLANT EAT SOULS. I have never been more terrified and curious about Minecraft in my life, Mojang has once again just given us 1% of the single most wild picture of the world possible and said “good luck! :)” and it’s making me completely feral
