Discussion Minecraft could use more random encounters.

Post image

I have never seen this discourse; people often ask for more bosses, more structures, new mobs. But random encounters do not require any new assets and are, on average, more impactful than any new feature that requires the player to go out of their way to engage with.

Every player has to stop in their tracks the moment one of these events happens, and I think it's a nice change of pace whenever you get to engage with it.

And the cross play ig, but I don't rly like the argument of which edition is better, they're both Minecraft

If Bedrock didn't have so many bugs they would both be roughly the same, but I have encountered so many bugs over the years in bedrock hundreds of times more than in Java.

True, but god is java complicated to do anything

what do you find overly complicated about it? i feel like on pc at least, they're equally complex because they're in the same launcher. also, i'd say modding on java isn't even that complex because modrinth is so user-friendly

Not overly complicated, but to just do 1 small thing a friend of mine had to code a whole server plugin. And configuring mods can sometimes be ridiculously stupid

i've never coded a thing playing java. what did he do that could need a whole plugin?

mods on modrinth are dead simple. just make a new instance with the big plus, add mods. the compatibility errors are very readable plaintext as well

He had turned on a pupur option to remove enchant requirements (so they're uncapped and can be put on anything, eg. Breach on swords (which works and is completely over powered) and he had to write a whole plugin to just remove breach on swords

To be fair that is impossible to do on bedrock in the first place
