Right after I killed the Ender Dragon, I set up a nice little extension around my portal so I wouldn't fall. Went got the Elytra, went through the portal, and it spawned me like 4 blocks under it, and I fell and died. I don't wanna accept dying like that after I put in soo much. So I got it back and decided to continue in hardcore.

I wanna know if shit like that happens generally, or was it maybe my mistake? Based on that, I'll decide if I should continue or start a new one. So whadya think?

Let's just say it as it is. The title speaks for itself.

To put it another way. Even if I was offered £1,000 right now to beat it, I would say with an enlightened voice "No"

I lost today because Phantoms got me. I was punished for not going to bed. For not having the tools to make a bed. There is no day countdown for their arrival. ALL THEY DROP IS SOMETHING FOR AN END GAME PLUS ITEM.

Yes I could have dug a little hole or gone into a cave or something. but by that point the damage to my psychedelic was already too great.

I'm into my 6th month of trying. I even found out and used to my advantage that you can put bundles in bundles.

This run was the closest I have ever got. I even ran around on the Lava in the Nether riding a Strider. I brushed past a Nether fortress.

"It's a casual game HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. It's for children HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA."

I literally took 45 minutes going from a to b in the overworld to collect the warped fungus from one Nether portal to bring it to another Nether portal. I couldn't travel in the Nether as..... well..... the developers may have actually forgotten that there's something called... FALL DAMAGE.

I think on PC Java version it would still be hard but not nigh impossible.

If I had of known the game was nigh impossible, I would have never bothered trying.

What have we decided on vanilla tweaks in hardcore? (obv everyone has their opinion but general consensus). Specifically stuff like falling trees or other small tweaks that dont make the game easier but makes small tasks like gathering materials easier. I know the hardcore youtubers that do the crazy stuff that takes months use mods that make things easier but dont change how the game plays or add anything extra (for example the mod that lets you paste a template of a build or farm for you to follow). So my question; generally is that considered not a vanilla hardcore world if you have vanilla tweaks on?

I personally think that small tweak mods like that are fine even for the hardcore youtubers (mainly because most dont show us the weeks of footage of them gathering materials so why not have a mod that makes it faster?) but please tell me why others may consider it cheating cause i havent heard the other side before.

also i know it doesnt really matter especially for private worlds that no one will ever see but i kust wanna know.

Rules

1. No permanent structures, max 3 nights before leaving
2. Must create a campfire then a furnace then stone tools
3. Must create an anvil before using iron or copper tools
4. No caving or strip mining (exposed metals above ground are allowed)
5. The nether portal you enter from cannot be the one you leave from

Good luck

I used to be able to do this in 26.1, I love using heads as items in building, but unforchantely I can no longer do this. Anyone know a mod to do this for me?

I don't use cheats for anything other than having items to build with that'd make things look better., or spectator mode to take a better screenshot.
