i ADORE minecraft fanfics where building and player magic are just another part of the story. when a redstoner carefully piles the dust into lines and sighs with displeasure when something walks into it. when the builder spends hours carefully carving the perfect decoration in deep thought. when a character opts to home-bake cookies instead of crafting them, when they get a gift they can just feel is made entirely independent of player magic. its just magical

everyone needs to get way more autistic about the potential of Minecraft mechanics in mcyt fanfic and by everyone I mean I am getting way more autistic about it and im writing a massive fic series with sooo many smps and mc niches intertwined in it.

starting with a Schlatt dsmp/qsmp 2 main fic + an infume focused lifesteal world one shot btw

ask me about the Minecraft world mechanics and lore I have a brain worm rn

Minecraft mechanics pt.2

I said I'd do elytras next time but I kept thinking about maces

Also yap incoming so you don't have to read it

I'm not a physicist so idk if I actually use all the right energy and forces, so if I'm wrong please feel free to share/correct me. If you couldn't tell Executioner has a red tint because of the fire aspect enchant.

But yeah this is what I do in class when I don't pay attention. I'll do elytras.....next....maybe

Also yes I know this is not how a real medieval mace looks (◞‸ ◟) I just think it looks cool

A lot of people don't realize this, but sponges in Minecraft Release versions were made functional in exactly the same update that fundamentally changed layers of flowing water in order to make their drying capabilities comparatively useless.

Ya know what would make a good Minecraft mechanic would be to have goat horns as happy ghast recall like I get the snow balls are a thing but they only work a certain distance and even if you could attract the ghast by throwing them you can only throw them so far

"One Day You're Going to Die!" | ⟡ A Baconnwaffles0 Warden arc fic⟡

⟡ Lifesteal SMP ⟡ 26k words ⟡ Grief & Body horror ⟡ Arc/character study ⟡

Summary:

(late!) Day 5 of …Insane-tober: Rot

Maybe Bacon will spend his whole life trying to dissect the corpse that is Subz.

⟡⟡⟡

Sculk. The starry, fuzzy like mold that to spread needs to feast on something decaying. Something dead.

Something rotting.

Bacon's body is rotting, decaying, in front of his very own eyes. Just like Subz’s own body must've been.

(for OR: summary's and tags keep reading :], or click here for direct link)

✦✦ OR: Bacon was prepared to take on the burden of being the ‘villain’ by following in Subz's footsteps, but nothing could have prepared him for the way his body would start to decompose and rot out from under him in the process.

( or or, A Bacon warden arc introspection fic and how grief and depression mix together into one heck of a metaphor )

I love how Qsmp lore is involving the actual gameplay and game data in the story.

Like @v@ Forever having all these admin powers and special buffs that made it super unfair and unbalanced in fighting him. Showing how insanely powerful @v@ and Cucurucho both are.

Fit using “player data” and “game statistics” as a part of his lore. Something usually kept out of roleplay.

Even the weather and time. The code causing rain and the time changing when it appears. Or Tubbo possibly changing the weather with his emotions (still just a theory). In general how it never is supposed to rain on Quesadilla Island.

Now protected blocks aren’t new to mc servers but the way it’s tied into the Federation’s control of the island and power over the players’ abilities.

The Minecraft rules and game functions are used in tandem with the worldbuilding and story aspects being created in roleplay.

This isn’t something I’ve seen used and actually encouraged in heavy lore focused roleplay servers before. It’s a really cool way to allow the game to still function as a game but still be incorporated into the context of the roleplay.

Like for Tubbo counting damage or using cave layers or just his general knowledge of the Game and it’s rules and that can be part of his character rather than calling it fail rp or having to try to make it make sense in the story it fits. (I also like the theory of him having a deeper connection to the game functions so he can be aware of those “meta” things bc he’s an experiment or code)

Big ramble but after watching Fit’s lore VOD it solidified this idea of game mechanics and data being blended with the fictional story rather than minecraft just being used as a stage but actually used as a part of the story. And I just find that insanely cool and creative.
