Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

I feel the advancement tab is decent for finding stuff without leaving the game. It's still looking up hints, just ingame. I'd love for them to add readable books in ancient ruins to give you hints instead. Idk how they'll give hints for this tho

I dunno, my 35 year old sister in law just started playing she still hasn't discovered that the nether exists, and hasn't done any enchanting after 3 weeks. Some lore or even a handbook would probably help a lot.

I played it for even longer and still don't know how to enter the nether. I want to find it out by myself but there don't seem to be a lot of clues

I don't want to spoil this rare quest you elected to take on. But you should've seen those obsidian structures surrounded by lava and magma. I would inspect those.

The game gives you no hints. It expects you to know, just like games don't really instruct on how to use the joystick.

I will check it out! Good thing I have heaps of diamond items because I was basically just mining, building houses and trying to map the world haha

You might need three diamonds (or, if you're feeling adventurous, two buckets) to do something and make these structures operational :)

And after you learn it, you can make yours.
