A Minecraft player has died in Hardcore mode after surviving almost 3,000 days after hitting a wall. Minecraft isn't a franchise known for being scary but instead is more remembered for its creative factor. Despite this, it's not uncommon for Minecraft players to experience intense situations while playing.
Players can have fun in many ways, as Minecraft has four game modes. One of the most popular modes is Creative, where Minecraft players have infinite resources to use. In this mode Minecraft players can fly freely, take no damage, and break blocks with one hit, making it the perfect place for building and experimenting. Another equally popular Minecraft mode is Survival, where players gather materials, craft items, gain experience, and must survive as long as possible. But one Minecraft player said goodbyes to their Hardcore world after dying due to a simple mistake.
Reddit user A_Lego_Fan died in their Hardcore world of two years after hitting a wall. The player got hit by a Piglin Brute and fell into the lava using an Elytra, a wing found in End Ships that is one of the rarest items in Minecraft. This fall could have been fatal, but they used the Totem of Undying, a Minecraft item that can save players from death. The player's sad fate came when they accidentally used a rocket with a flight duration of 3 and crashed into a wall. According to the player, their world had over 1,000 hours of gameplay, and they had survived for 2992 days by sleeping just one night.
A_Lego_Fan used the post to mourn the loss of their Hardcore world by sharing screenshots showing some of the constructions they made, such as a futuristic-looking base at The End. In the comments, other Minecraft players lamented the incident, as dying in Minecraft Hardcore means losing access to the world, as it is impossible to respawn. One player said that the risk of losing the world is their motivation to play Minecraft Hardcore. On the other hand, a second player said they didn't dare to play Minecraft in this mode because of the fear of losing progress.
Minecraft remains a hit over a decade after its release. Initially, the game became known for the experience of surviving in procedurally generated worlds. Over time, Minecraft has become a literal content creation platform, with players modifying Minecraft in incredible ways. Despite this, there is still a great fondness among players for the Survival mode and the extra flavor provided by the challenge of playing in Hardcore survival.
Minecraft is available on Android, iOS, PC, PS4, Switch, Xbox One, and legacy platforms.
