It is the perfect start series after all 🤣. His luck is legit which further perfects the series

Slight spoilers for stuff near his base..... There's actually a double geode in the cave closest to his starter house, about 50 blocks from each other on the same Y level. I discovered this while playing along in my own world using this seed and it's fantastic. One of the two is a HUGE geode. Unfortunately this geode he found doesn't seem to be the same one.

And also that iron ore vein and skeleton spawner, dude is just too lucky

Y

I just use ore ESP. No one will ever know. Plus, I want to play for a good time not a long one.

I’m the same but I’ll still watch when someone puts up a vid just in case I’m missing something I usually just use a tunnel bore 😂

Only creator I know can make a MC survival guide from day one and keep me entertained! I been playing for 10 years at least but I still look forward to his episodes😂

Definitely good to get new perspectives on things as well. My early game differs greatly in many ways, but refreshing to see a new take. Pix has also made more houses in these few videos than I have the entire time I've played Minecraft. I usually just dig out a hobbit hole for early game and branch mine from it until geared up enough to feel confident caving.

​@@sambuma this is so me as well! I'm hoping to begin building outside and build more then just boxes!

@@RedisFun2 I need to work on smaller scale ideas because everything I think of to build is always massive, which doesn't work well early game plus I don't even get to most of them at any point even though I'll go grind out a ton of resources for them.

Same. 2020 was the big year on Minecraft for me from the original survival guide

pix is awesome!!!

Minecraft is actually the only first person game I can play that Doesn’t give me motion sickness. I have to play it in a small window, maybe 7x5, but I’ve found that helps a lot

If you can answer, what's giving it? I can try and help, minecraft also has some settings which try and stop this

Have tried changing the FOV setting to a wider or narrower angle. Could also change the mouse/turn speed to help prevent that.

I find Java causes less motion sickness than Bedrock!

@@LeslieHarvey607 my comment gathered a lot more replies than I expected. I find that if I play on a small screen, with the Quake FOV and I position my head just right without moving I can play for a bit. However, the next few days I get massive headaches and dizzy spells. As to what's giving it... How do I explain this, I feel like I am moving slower than I ought to. Does this make sense? I have not tried changing the mouse/turn speed as someone suggested. I didn't know that was a thing. I try and play Java on a PC.

It's even better. Slight spoilers for stuff near his base..... There's actually a double geode in the cave closest to his starter house, about 50 blocks from each other on the same Y level. I discovered this while playing along in my own world using this seed and it's fantastic. One of the two is a HUGE geode. Unfortunately this geode he found doesn't seem to be the same one. Oh, and there's an ancient city under the mountain.

Also some deep dark under his house. You have to tunnel down to find it

The passion and joy for this game is always so clear in his voice, and it always makes for a much more enjoyable time watching because it’s quite infectious!

Well he is at the beginning of the world, very likely the first 10 episodes or so just come from 2 playing sessions

True that! Either way I'm happy. The more content to watch the merrier :D

What is the big deal with stray farms? I’ve heard about people doing this but I don’t always see the point. Maybe because I use an Infinity bow, so slowness arrows aren’t that useful to me? Idk

@@Pixlriffs I use a Mending bow on the regular and having Arrows of Slowness on tap is incredibly useful to me. I tend to run away from a lot of attacking mobs (absolute wimp here) and being able to pelt them and slow them down constantly with the maxed bow is so wonderful. Just one of those things I’ve learnt to do to maximise the farm, another string to my bow if you will…

@@roweproductions9424 WHAT?! Another who doesn't Infinity? I thought Infinity was all the rage these days

@@JacksonOwex Mending Bow > Infinity Bow ... something I changed my mind about a few years ago.

What

gret comment

I’d be tempted to start that way too, but for the survival guide I figured it was best to save them for later. It’s one of those “teach a man to fish” situations

@@Pixlriffs Right, for the survival guide series that sure makes sense.

Turns out a huge leap often results in fall damage 😅

@@Pixlriffs looking forward to the MLG episode

Don’t have a horse yet, and I’ll probably go back to the spawner later!

@@Pixlriffs ah ok I'm in the habit of just taking all the good stuff and leaving after lighting the spawner.

​@@Pixlriffs do you give pointers if someone sensa you pictures of their builds?

I’ve only been using the logo for 2 seasons, and people still haven’t realised it’s copper, gold, and diamond, not oxidising copper 😅

@@Pixlriffs Whattt?! Tbh I do remember that season 1 didn't use it like this, though I didn't find your channel until after the start of season 2, but even though I've seen you use those other blocks I really swore that a lot of them was just copper! 🤣 My mind has been blown today haha.

Bonemeal from skeletons and iron for shears from the walls. Glow Lichen are free torches for the frugal or desperate.

@waveclaw it's also an elegant solution for lighting where there isn't room for torches/lanterns. Or where they would otherwise obstruct the view. I really like it for pathways and roofs (keeps away snow, especially higher up, or in colder biomes)

Same here 😅

congrats

@@abhiyanshnahar2054 thanks

Congrats on the 100. Keep it up! 💪

what? you acctualy commented. This has made my day and inspired me even more. Simply, Thanks

how do you get 29 diamonds without torches or food?

I think of the skumpass as a two-block high pillar, and usually in the Nether 😄

True but I've found they help everywhere when you are easily lost like me

I hope for the day skizz can do youtube full time like he is meant 2

I appreciate the correction, but at this stage in the series I'm mostly trying to encourage beginner players to be cautious, not explain precise game mechanics. You're more likely to encounter large groups of mobs in lower regions of the world because there's less exposure to sky light, a higher proportion of large unlit areas where pack spawning can take place, higher chance of spawner dungeons generating... plus it's harder to escape dangerous situations because you have further to travel to reach the surface. But while we're here, I'm pretty sure regular mob spawning is generally understood to have increased rates lower down in the world. When 1.18 was in its experimental snapshot phase, the developers briefly changed spawn rates to be consistent across all altitudes. The stated reason was to prevent mob spawns from clustering in the lower areas of the world, and evenly distribute mobs across caves. It wasn't very successful, because other aspects like pack spawning and the hostile mob cap got in the way - and the technical community pointed out that it removed any opportunity to optimize farms - but I'm still pretty sure the developers still knew what they were talking about with regards to mob spawning altitude. Yes, it's most noticeable in farms with a lower maximum height, but it's still plausible that it affects hostile mob encounters while caving to a reasonable degree.
