EPIC 1.16 Hardcore Survival Let’s Play by JWhisp

Hello everyone what’s up J wispier and welcome to episode one of my minecraft 1.16 hardcore let’s play now we’re not actually in 1.16 yet currently I’m playing the latest 1.16 snapshot which is 20 W 10a we have a lot of things released in the nether update but we

Don’t have quite everything yet um but I will be updating this world consistently to the newest snapshot as they’re released I’m just doing this series because I want to do a hardcore series I’ve never actually had like a successful hardcore world I’ve only beat minecraft on hardcore

Ones because I’m definitely not a safe player I’m not reserved I’m very chaotic and I just go all over the place and end up killing myself but it’s fine I’m gonna attempt it I’m gonna attempt to also you people take tips and tricks on how to play a hardcore better

Because I’ve done a lot of research I’ve done some practicing and I think I’ve gotten a lot better at hardcore myself now currently I think 1.16 will be released in about a month or two and after the actual updates released I’ll do my normal regular survival let’s play

But until that happens I want to have some sort of survival let’s play to tide me over but I didn’t just want to do a normal survival let’s play so that’s why I’m doing hardcore and I think it’ll be pretty fun also before I get too far in

This video I do want to say that my faction server called unsalted MC has been released again the IP is play unsalted mcg I’m just gonna do a quick plug on the server was up before and was pretty successful the only reason we took it down was because it had some

Bugs and so we’re really sing it I’ll have an actual server release video coming up soon but I thought I mentioned here if you guys want to join and check it out I will put the IP in the description also since the server is just releasing I’ll be doing lots of

Rain giveaways soon and also recording videos on the server I might be recording actual factions videos but I also intend on recording different videos like maybe trolling or messing around with people on the server different things like that I think it’ll be really cool so you guys should

Definitely check it out and also since we have the faction server released now we will start working on our second game mode which will be a survival multi surfer so I think that’ll be pretty cool all right so normally when I start a survival world I take the time to build

A nice little pretty starter house and made me build a farm around it something like that maybe find a village but I don’t think that’s the move in this world I think what I want to do is build a little bit of a fortress a well-defended area because I definitely

Want to play on the safer side this let’s play I want to make sure that I don’t die and that mobs can’t get to me that’s why I’m glad I started in this biome and that I could harvest sweet berries because if you don’t know you can simply place them around your base

And when they’re pretty new it’ll slow down enemies but once the sweet berries grow to its full maturity it will not only slow enemies but it will also hurt them so I think this will make good defenses we can also place some spruce logs around or fences to help prevent

Enemies from getting in the only things we really have to worry about our skeletons shooting over the fence potentially and spiders crawling it but I have some defenses against that I think if we place slabs on top of the fences that’ll prevent that and then I think it’ll be high enough where

Skeletons really can’t shoot me unless they’re above me so I think what I want to do is scout out this area and try to find a high point that I can use so like maybe up there but that’s stone so I couldn’t place the sweet berries I guess

I don’t need to I could place the sweet berries on the mountain under the stone and around it I’ll have to see but this also looks like a really good spawn because not only does it look like there’s lots of resources and really cool things to build we have mountains

We have an ocean there could be tons of things in the ocean for us to get so that’ll be really cool but also there was a cow there’s sheep there’s some pigs so I think there’s a lot of animals around for us to have so maybe we can

Make a few mob farms I think that’ll be pretty cool so I’m thinking that’s the point all right so I just got up here and I think this is actually good place what I think I’ll do is I’ll use this little ledge hollow it out a bit and

Then place some fences around and then this part up here I’ll probably just break down and I won’t use but I will utilize the grass and maybe we place some sweet berries and some fences around to prevent different things from getting to me but I’m not gonna do that quite

What’s really nice about this biome is I have tons of coal above-ground so that’s really good I’m gonna start collecting some coal because I want to try to get this area lit up I want to get a lot of torches around so I can prevent mob spawning as much as I can

One of the things that’s so difficult about hardcore is not only do so many mobs to spawn when it’s dark but mobs do so much damage things like spiders and zombies aren’t that hard to deal with but a creeper even if you have fully enchanted diamond armor if a creeper

Blows up right on top of you you will die and also skeletons have amazing aim I tried to dodge skeletons and sometimes I can’t you know on easy mode or normal mode it’s pretty easy but on hardcore they definitely have very good aim almost like they have a bot and their

Arrows also do a ton of damage so I have to be careful Enderman are also one of those I think they get triggered more easily on hardcore I don’t know if that’s actually science or just my skepticism but I feel like that’s the case so I’m gonna be

Very careful heading down I do want to head down this cave oh god nope never mind there’s a skeleton all right so let’s make some torches first I have to be careful let’s also try to make a stone sword at least it’s something it’s not you know it’s not something super

Strong but it’s something to protect me so I don’t just instantly die against these mobs let’s make some more torches put them in my off and head oh god they’re coming for us okay zombies don’t have to worry about their pretty easy alright skeleton not for you yeah he did

Two hearts just with one hit and he’s hitting me like I can’t even oh gosh where is he okay oh okay I have to be very careful I’m just gonna wait for the skeleton to come up then I’m gonna hit him okay good we got him

Oh no okay there’s more mom’s coming I have to get out of here actually you know what I can probably I can take on the zombies they’re not they’re not a huge deal just the skeletons I need to get some food in me before I die but I

Also want to explore this cave I can hear the somme bees as long as I can prevent more from spawning it should be okay I just need to get some torches around here actually you know what I’m not gonna risk it because if there’s even one more skeleton I will die and

It’s about to be nighttime so I need to be careful I need to really watch what I’m doing let’s start to light up this little hillside area just get some torches around here to at least try to stop mobs from spawning all over the place but here let’s start killing you

Know what I’ll kill the pigs I don’t care too much about pigs it’s not like I’m gonna get carrots anywhere around here anyways but sheep are useful chickens or useful cows are useful pigs aren’t that useful I mean they give food but I can get food from

Any other animal I can get wool from the sheep’s and I can get leather from the cows so I think I want to let them live and actually farm them alright we got nine pieces let’s go make a furnace use some of our coal to smelt this up I need

To get back to the house quickly also maybe make some stone tools I didn’t realize it got laid so fast you need to be careful is the day time shorter and hardcore I actually don’t know huh new conspiracy theory no I left up I’ll have

To check that out I really don’t know it feels like it is I think I left my crafting table down there alright so let’s try to just grab a little bit of stone to make a furnace really quick and also a few pieces of forcing tools

Trying to be very careful I don’t want any zombies or skeletons fighting me skeletons are just the big one I hate skeletons so much and I really need to get a shoe once I get a shield that will help a lot against creepers and skeletons but since

We don’t have any iron yet it’s definitely gonna be it’s good it’s gonna be a hard first night I already see some mobs spawning there’s a zombie over there in the distance I have to be careful oh oh there’s a lot of mobs now all right let’s get some extra torches

Around here to make sure they don’t spawn anywhere near us okay I think we honestly should be okay I don’t think they’ll spawn on top of this mountain and if they spawn under the mountain or next to the mountain they have to climb up and at least I have the higher ground

Which gives me a little bit of an advantage against them so let’s cook this food and then let’s also make some tools really fast I’ll be careful I gotta keep checking my surroundings we have the chickens the chickens will protect us let’s make a pickaxe and then also an axe not too concerned

About a shovel let’s get one more piece for the shovel oh I hear zombie really close Oh actually you know it’s probably just one of the zombies in the cave shovel let’s do that I think we’re pretty set so what I wanted to do I want

To do it before it became nighttime but too late now let’s place a torch here and then let’s at least get some of this snow out of here so I can kind of see what I’m working with and also snowballs will be useful I mean

They don’t do damage but against a mob I mean I guess it’ll help not get back a bit if I need to so I don’t know snowballs might come handy so what I wanted to do is just take the sweet berries and just place them on brass frame middle of this place

Just like that something like that I mean it helps a little bit if there’s moms coming down here and then I’ll break this stone so mobs also have to go down this block thing I’ll eventually probably hollow out this whole thing or maybe I honestly could build a house

Inside of that little cake that might be there maybe a good idea I just have to make sure I don’t hurt myself on the sweet berries either so I have to make some sort of entrance and exit inside and out so let’s do that here let’s grab

These pork chops I think that might be a good idea actually some sort of cave base what if I just like broke this area a little bit placed a torch up here see what I’m getting at like you feel me I think I think this might actually work

Hold on so if I have this how would I make a Dory inside something like this okay here mom I love on being quiet in real life because I have to be quiet in the game oh okay it’s starting to hurt me okay that’s good at least it’s

Getting stronger so let’s make a door really fast we can we can use the cobblestone this is gonna be the worst starter else I’ve ever made but at least it works it’s gonna protect me I hear zombies you have to be careful that didn’t work at all that kind of works

I mean hey it’s it’s something let’s get inside here really fast just hollow it out a tiny bit I’ll just put like a chest in here our crafting table I’ll probably make an actual starter house or something that looks decent in a second so I’m gonna do a little bit of

Renovating with this and I’ll be right back with you guys alright I did a tiny bit of work on the house I just tried to make it look more presentable I’ll probably do a little bit of stuff to make it look a little bit nicer either off-camera or baby towards the end of

The episode but what I want to try is to get in this cave and try to do some mining I know there’s probably mobs and zombies and stuff down here but there’s tons of mobs outside as well so there’s really no safe place for me unless I honestly just wanted to hide in

My house but that’s kind of boring there’s no fun in that so I’m gonna try to explore this a little bit maybe try to find some iron so that I can actually make some armor and stuff I’m gonna try to light up this cave as I go just to

Prevent more oh we did get OH as I said earlier in the video I’m not gonna get any carrots and I get a carrot okay there’s a creeper have to be oh gosh you mom’s from all angles now where did this even come from the entire inside of the caves little now creepers

You sometimes in like a normal Minecraft I’ll let creepers explode intentionally just so they kill themselves but in hardcore I really don’t want to do that these creepers literally do so much damage so much explosive damage that I don’t want to risk it even for the biskits oh gosh hey babies

Okay you know what maybe maybe uh maybe this was a bad oh gosh how many oh no no how is this what oh god I need to make sure I have an escape route how are there so many zombies oh my gosh okay there we go so

Let’s make sure we light up this cave we need to light it up so no more zombies where were they even hiding there’s not even room for them to spawn anywhere here let’s make some more torches really fast Oh God skeleton oh no oh no one more shot him

Dead one more shot and I’m dead creepers oh gosh this is not this is not fun it’s almost daytime we just have to live you have to live a little bit longer get up the mountain oh gosh where’s my food where’s my food okay i hears oh god I hear skeletons I can’t

Stand still for too long or else I can get shot I have to just keep moving okay it’s almost no one more shot and I’m dead okay I think we’re okay we can start regenerating now my heart started racing so fast I just wanted to get some

Ironman that that’s that’s all I wanted all right let’s sit back in here really fast gonna play it a little safer I have to be careful I know there’s so many people probably watching me right now cringing and how bad I am at hardcore but here’s the thing it’s kind of

Exciting when I almost die you know what I mean like it’s boring if I just sat there in my house waited for a night to end you know what I mean it’s kind of exciting boy hey we got a carrot we got a potato so we can start doing

Some stuff with that we also got one piece of wool if I can get some more I should be able to make a bed and I can start skipping the night how many sheep are there there’s not enough and there might be but I don’t want to kill them

So let’s see let’s grab some of our food I just need to find some iron so I can make some shears and then I should be pretty much all set because if I can just shear the sheep I think we’ll be fine so I want to head back in this cave

Now that it’s daytime I think we’ll stand out the better chance against some of these guys I’ll grab a few more pieces of coal just for some more torches in case I need it but there’s a lot of caves down here it’s just we’re so high up like we’re at y equals 80

I don’t think iron will even spawn this high so I think we have to get into more of the depths of this cave so let’s try to head down this little area here see if there’s anything well we got some zombies of course oh and a creeper oh

God okay there we’re fine we didn’t get blowing up any iron around here I don’t see any does this lead to a deeper cave no yeah I think we honestly just need to start mining down lower cuz we’re just so high up the only thing that’s gonna spawn up

Here is coal but I want to check out let’s check out the other part of the cave does this lead anywhere maybe no okay so we’re gonna have to do some actual mining if we want to find some iron this cave isn’t gonna cut it I was

Hoping it would but it’s just too high up I don’t know the actual Y level at which iron spawns but I definitely think it’s a lot lower than 80 we also we do have a lot of cows I can probably I can probably spare a few cows for a little

Bit of meat I just want to make sure I have more food than I need because I go through food so fast in hardcore but that’s just because I always want to stay at full hunger most of the time if there’s mobs around because I want to

Stay at full health so shut up here I also saw a sheep so we can take him out hopefully get some wool I just don’t want to kill those two sheep over there because I do want to breed them and eventually have some sort of sheep farm

In case I need a wolf or anything weird this year there’s the sheep but I think I need three of the same color pieces oh okay yeah oh there’s lots of sheep we’ll find we’re set so we have one I have one in the chest we just need one more piece

And we’re all set okay whoo that’s a life saver though all we really need is bed and we should be good carrying a bed around with us we don’t really need the bed for the spawn point because obviously if we die you know it doesn’t really matter the world’s over

But just skip the nighttime a bed is definitely gonna come in handy so that’s one of the things you really need to get on your first night in hardcore as long as you get some sort of shelter and a bed you’ll be okay now if you want to

Play it safe don’t do what I did and just go out there what you want to do is probably make some sort of a shelter and honestly just wait the night out honestly what I’ve done in my first few days of hardcore sometimes before is I

Just find a corner and then I’ll block my selves in with sturdy blocks and he literally just wait out the night once it’s night time I’ll set an alarm for 10 minutes since day times around 10 minutes a night times around 10 minutes and I’ll just wait for it to pass and

Then I’ll wait a few days of gathering resources and then I’ll actually build a sort of sturdy house and to bed so you can do that I would recommend doing that if you’re risky like me and you want to risk it for the biscuit you can do what you want

With here let’s make this bed really fast I think this would be really nice and there we go we got ourselves a bed jumpin anyways guys that’s all for this video um I will be doing a little bit of off-camera work on this kind of a house

Here to make it look a little more presentable in the thumbnail maybe make the defences a little better but yeah I really hope you guys enjoyed I also just wanted to say thank you for the crazy support on the channel lately as I’m recording this I think we just hit 96

Thousand subscribers so literally only four thousand subs away from 100k which is literally insane that was always my goal on YouTube I mean nowadays there’s lots of people getting a hundred thousand subscribers but back in the day when I was you know new on YouTube and I

Was younger there were only a few channels with a hundred thousand subscribers I’m definitely one of the YouTube babies I watched YouTube before was hip and cool I don’t even know how I found it originally I was just I was kind of addicted honestly oh it’s gonna

Get out of there but yeah I really hope you guys enjoyed if you really enjoyed it leave a like and subscribe I do appreciate it again since we’re so close to a hundred thousand also for a hundred thousand I will probably try to release some merch and some different special

Videos and I think I’m gonna do a Q&A face cam type video so if you have questions for that leave them down in the comment section below but I’ll post an official poll on Twitter and Instagram soon so follow all my social media down below but yeah thank you guys
