How to stop a minecraft player from suicide

Honestly if you were a kid who bought these books at the book fair, these were a pretty good way to both start reading, and learn how to play minecraft in the days before fan wikis were everywhere (and even if they were, it was likely you were going to get 16 viruses from them lol). I remember these books, and a lot of the tips in them were genuinely helpful, like getting a compass and clock to help find your way

These books capitalize on the energy of the early Minecraft era, when we weren't sure what was in the game and just figured it out. Minecraft wiki down for some reason, people mixing mod crafting recipes with real ones, it felt like everyone who knew their shit could write a strategy guide on the game. But everyone's would be different, not everyone knew everything yet. Anyone remember how the first minecraft guide smelled? I saved up money to preorder the book with my Scholastic Book Fair school, got it in a walmart bag for some reason lmao and it smelled weird, super hype but still not certain why it smelled so unique

It depends on the type of editing and the type of KZreadr. Less edited survival videos are more likely to have the music on. If the editing is more present then KZreadrs will probably not have their music on, because they are going to put in thier own music anyway. When you look at minigame KZreadrs they usually use music to set the mood in editing so, random Minecraft music would really mess that up.

You know, I was thinking to myself "did anyone ever actually seriously use these books aside from just fun little experiments like these?" until I realized that I had been doing the farming from the handbook for years until I learned of the modern, more efficient way. On top of that, I had also been using the "dig in a hill" trick if I hadn't built a house yet. It's awesome to see things like this.

@fizzlock

5 ай бұрын

The Redstone one was actually half decent for its time, and taught me a LOT about basic circuits as a kid. I think it was partially authored by CubeHamster (I could be fully wrong there, someone correct me if so), so it was actually genuinely helpful. I don't think it explained stuff like BUD Switches, or QuasiConnectivity. It's also obviously out of date with the huge additions of the observer and target block.

thank you for not yelling the whole video and not having a million things on the screen at once like most minecraft videos that get recommended

This was such a calm and soothing video, Its nice to see people who dont constantly scream, so I appreciate that👍✨

The nostalgia hits hard with this one. I have all the four books, so I might as well try it out myself

I bought these at a scholastic book fair in 2015 and treated them as gospel for a few years 😂

There’s something special about Minecraft guidebooks to me. It’s just nostalgia, but I love reading about a game I know so much about.

I had (and I believe I still might have it in here somewhere!) the construction handbook. The builds included in the book were actually pretty interesting, but are of course now dated due to the addition of many new blocks. The instructions however were... not exhaustive, to say the least, so you mostly had to use the given picture for reference. I distinctly remember how one build used two anvils for a cooking grill. Very creative!

I remember wanting those back in 2014/15/16 and i just never got my mum to buy them for me, but all in all they hold up really good almost 10 years later!

Who doesn't have at least one of the books isn't a real Minecrafter

I love the suppressed anger but calmness through most of the video. I loved these books, I’ve got all 4 and all of the new Minecraft Guides
