I only started playing Minecraft a couple of months ago. My son (6) wanted to play it and I wanted to check it out first and got hooked it’s a fun game to play at work during breaks. The green markers are each of my bases.

    I’m playing on my phone (PE/Bedrock). I’ve fooled around on Pc with Java and mods and yeah you can go deep in making the game different. I watched a video recently about the 2weeks phase and they were saying the trick is to take your time and enjoy the world instead of rushing through. Build a nice home, dig a mine and get some ore the go back to your house. Usually I give myself a new direction at every session (today was getting the maps). I haven’t explored the nether yet (actually I built a portal but somehow it teleports me in fire and I die before the game fully loads the world, the joys of bedrock, I’ll need to make a new portal further away)

      I play Java (Pojav Launcher) on my phone, Bedrock has DRM that prevents me playing it, even though I bought it on Google Play, because I installed it from the Aurora Store. Plus, as you say, it has mods, and subjectively, I prefer the UI.

        The one thing I like about Bedrock is that maps only cost 1 paper with the cartography table or 1 paper and one compas if you want locator. while in Java it’s only locator map with one compas and 8 papers.
