I have keepinventory enabled on my server and it's awesome. Games are supposed to be fun, and losing all of your items is not very fun

That's why I like to mod my games with a gravestone mod. Your items are safe but dying still costs you something.

It's funny when you die in the nether lava ocean and have to go on a sand excavation to get your stuff back.

I like the sound of that. I think valheim nails it for balance so if its anything like that. We're playing bedrock edition.

Maalus@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 1y (4 replies)

Valheim actually sucks with how they handle death - you lose a very significant portion of your skills each time. It isn't a problem when you have 10 in woodcutting and it goes to 8, but at 100 and it going to 98 is a very huge deal that takes hours to get back.

Can't you change those multipliers when you create the world? Haven't played it on very long time so maybe I am confusing it with rimworld and the likes.

So don’t die

Thanks, Captain Obvious!

intensely_human@lemm.ee · 1 pts · 1y

Like, the cost of dying is an incentive that they’ve built into the game.

Sanctus@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1y

I usually just burn a few ender pearls making teleporting keys until I die outside of the lava lake.

intensely_human@lemm.ee · 14 pts · 1y

I like the challenge. To me, games are more fun when sometimes they’re frustrating.

Johanno@feddit.org · 12 pts · 1y

But losing is fun. Sometimes. I mean people play dark souls.

As I have already said:

I'm not Greg from gregtech lol. I just made the unfortunate mistake of not checking whether something with the name gregtech already exists when registering my domain name.

Alk@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 1y (2 replies)

Oh my god it's greg from gregtech. I thought for sure you'd have keepinventory off.

Alk@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1y

I kind of figured but it's such a meme in the GT community that I couldn't help myself lol.

GreyCat@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1y (2 replies)

To me this removes the threat of exploring completely and makes it not fun.
There is literally no danger to doing anything and it's boring.

gregor@gregtech.eu · 1 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Depends on the person playing. I prefer keepinv and you don't

GreyCat@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y

I agree, that's why I said "To me" :)

Pika@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 1y

I use graveyard mods for it, gives me at least a chance but lowers challenge some

Oka@sopuli.xyz · 46 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Never trust a nether portal.

Sometimes, they can even spawn in the air.

WolfLink@sh.itjust.works · 15 pts · 1y

They used to spawn a small obsidian platform if the portal happened to not spawn on solid ground

Hey, nice smasnug! But don't hold it upside down by the stand. Learned the hard way 😔🙏

Passerby6497@lemmy.world · 28 pts · 1y

Hey, nice smasnug!

It took me way longer than I want to admit to decipher this lol.

Fortatech@gregtech.eu · 9 pts · 1y (4 replies)

turns my smasnug upside down, just to see... Oh yeah, don't do that.

Aatube@kbin.melroy.org · 6 pts · 1y (3 replies)

what happens lol

Cadeillac@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 1y

I would guess the screen separates from the stand, causing it to crash to the ground

Fortatech@gregtech.eu · 3 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Try

gregor@gregtech.eu · 1 pts · 1y

I did, what happens??

comrade19@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 1y

Oh no :(

You guys are thoroughly confusing me

0laura@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 1y

it's a Greg or be Gregged world these days...

LiveLM@lemmy.zip · 11 pts · 1y

Basalt Deltas are the worst Nether biome.
When my portal spawned me right into one I did a 180 and made another portal

aeronmelon@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 1y

At least it wasn’t a long-standing hardcore world.

NataliaTheDrowned2@fedia.io · 5 pts · 1y (3 replies)

Aah, Bugrock Edition

comrade19@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 1y (2 replies)

Using it for the ray tracing but its too dark to play with it on haha

KoalaUnknown@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 1y (1 reply)

I recommend taking a look at Iris. You can use it in combination with Sodium, Distant Horizons, and Complementary Shaders for to make Java edition really beautiful.

TriflingToad@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 1y

also bedrock ray tracing isn't even made for actual play, it's only made for a few specially designed maps. people found how to move a folder from the map worlds file into a location in a normal world folder to make the world have RTX.

(most of) the shaders on Iris are MADE to play with so you won't encounter as many issues.

Just wait till you decide to start collecting blaze rods or farming wither skele heads.
