ngl this rant is incredibly funny being someone who frequently plays minecraft
Honestly exactly same.
Been playing java(before it was explicitly called that) since the first beta. it was even harder, to port forward your router and go through all that just to run a server.
I have played mc since 2013 and this is hard not to laugh so hard
this 100% feels like a dad who never played a game before learns a game for the first time... well i guess it is but you get the point.
I know. It took me *years* to get good at Minecraft.
Well, gameplay aside, his complaints about the technical side of things make perfect sense, like how poorly the game runs, having to setup online accounts, having to buy multiple versions of the game, or how the Microsoft Store version doesn't even have graphical options (which is completely retarded and explains why the game runs so poorly).
@@amandasantini6265 he figured out the problem, just didn't address it. The issue is the render distance. It defaulted too high for his hardware. Not a hard fix, and it's right there under "video" settings.
@@edwardallenthree There was no fix, according to him, he couldn't set the draw distance. Either way, a default distance like that is just moronic. And if there's actually no way of turning the draw distance down, then it's even more moronic.
Also "for his hardware" just made me chuckle a little. I wonder what kind of mess Microsoft has made on the game if a freaking 5800X and a 3080 Ti aren't "enough" for a game as ugly as Minecraft.
@@edwardallenthree LOL "it defaulted too high for his hardware" LMAO Ryzen 5800X and RTX3080ti... what was minecraft made for? RTX4090? 10 years ago?
As a fellow dad of Minecraft-obsessed kids, I found the initial learning curve to be kind of steep; but, once I figured out the basics everything came very easily. You can change the render distance in the Windows 10 version... you have to scroll all the way down in the video settings... on my machine, it's set to 56 chunks by default. I have a 3700X/Vega 64 rig and it's butter smooth. Also... There is a Bedrock server out there (in Alpha) that is really great. I set one up with Docker for my kids to play on with me, but don't need to have me logged in to play. It makes life so much easier when they want to play and I'm just not here for it. XD
Good on ya for getting into the same things your son likes... these times will be really fond memories for him when he's older. :)
By the way, to connect to the bedrock server via the switch, just configure your pihole to point the lifeboat server to it's IP address.
Also, same.
100% agree with the idea of setting up a server for the household. its a blast to have a persistent shared world like that
i5 8400 and RX 550. I have a 60 Hz display, and VSync is on, so I get 60 fps. Default everything.
While, as a father, I completely understand your confusion with how complex the game is, and frustration with the lack of settings control, the insane differences in the difficulty, the arbitrary resource spawning, lack of a map, and the almost guaranteed death to a pair of distant skeletons overhead, then unclear directions of game progression towards an ultimate win in the game……. Where was I going with this…? Ah, Yes. This makes you a boomer. Welcome to the club.
Wait a second, Minecraft has ultimate win?
@@MJ-uk6lu Doesn’t it have something to do with a dragon? My kid keeps talking about the nether and getting things to get to the end?
@@josephbhumphrey you're correct defeating the ender dragon and going through the portal brings you to the credits of the game. Although when you kill the dragon "The End" opens up for you to explore even more. There really is no end of the game really. That's why I like multiplayer servers more for Minecraft.
For Java Edition: get OptiFine. For any edition: turn render distance down to like 16.
11 minutes of Timmy joe being a boomer😭😂😂 love you timmy
so minecraft still is a pc killer I thought that was the job of crysis how can this be?
I didn't know I needed to see a middle aged Canadian man with a beard rant about Minecraft but I'm happy it happened
The more frustrated he gets the higher pitch his voice gets. He cracked one of my wine glasses. LOL
For real???
@@toontownlegomaster smh
The graphics settings are a bit oddly placed but they're very minimal. Generally it's all render distance, simulation distance, and some fancier effects.
Look under the Options menu before loading the world.
Hey everyone it's Timmy Joe making wholesome content on the internet! This reminds me of trying to teach my grandparents games, and them graciously agreeing 🤣. 10/10 relateable
lol I remember my dad trying to play twisted metal 2 with me one time and he literally spent the entire time stuck on the wall and could not figure out how to back up and move. Gave him points for trying though.
@@patrickmcgovern4004 hahaha 😂. Yeah my grandma was better at halo than my grandfather haha
@@Madchris8828 your grandma sounds like a baller lol
Just remember Microsoft bought the company that makes this game. They did not design it. I would contact Mojang if you're not happy
Mojang is still making Java... Windows 10 version is managed by Microsoft and runs on different language i think C++ compared to Java
This is the shit console/windows10/phone version, it's the one 100% made by microsoft
@@My_Old_YT_Account I just wish they would keep going with the java version, and make it playable together on all devices, easy to add friends, add servers etc. They have fucked up this way to much more then needed..
Cant wait till my son is old enough to really get into games like this
Im in the same boat. My little guy is 2 and half. Can't wait until we can game together if he ends up being into it.
It's great times man :)
1 and half but hes allrdy changing gears, twisting wheel and grabbing Handbrake on my SimRig. Mostly just spamming h patter around but atleast th8a can take the beating ^^
@@qNepo that's impressive. I'm actually just picking up a g29 set up today, and my kid already loves cars. So here's hoping
@@thecasualcanuck4590 then i suggest it takes two when hes old enough
I think we take for granted the fact that we learned all these mechanics gradually over the years and the only reason we actually know this stuff is because of the fact most of us have played Minecraft almost since it came out
Timmy would have a fit of rage if he played ARK 😂
I’ve played a looot of minecraft, and when I play ark idk wtf I’m doing
40 years ago - want to play with a friend? - insert second joystick.
In the 90's if you wanted to have a really fun time get 3 of your friends, some beers, and 3 extra N64 controllers for Bomberman, Mario Kart 64, and Golden Eye, such simpler times.
Haven't played Minecraft in a while, but for me the progression was kind of secondary to exploring. The random awesome features along with the music was just a cool relaxing experience. Part of the issue may be that you are trying to progress really quickly before you are ready. A big downside is knowing too much about what you COULD (or think you SHOULD) be doing.
Could also try Terraria, which has a new Journey mode to make the grind much more pleasant. Maybe close enough to Minecraft for you both to get into it.
Draw distance in mine craft is based on chunks of the world which loads every block from top to bottom of the world for every chunk. Therefore it loads a crap ton of info because of all the blocks.
I have a 1070 and this game runs at like 180fps with everything maxed out with an 8700k. This sounds like driver or hardware
He figured it out, but kept talking. It's the render distance. But I have similar hardware to you and similar awesome experiences with both java and bedrock.
there is something off with this imo. not just this video, but also watching LTT running like 40FPS on valheim with 3080ti. My guess its a RTX30 driver series issue. like the drivers are too advanced they become confused and crap their pants when they see cell shading lol
I've got a 1070 and a r5 2600, and it runs pretty poorly for me. Maybe it's an amd cpu kinda thing?
Good to see these kinds of videos man! Keep up the good work! :)
Love this new format! You should do more videos in this style.
1:02 "arrow dispenser"
I don't have kids, but with all the craze over Minecraft I do appreciate it being like a digital LEGO and with the red stone mechanics they can get creative with a type of wire system
I love this style of video for you guys ! Timmy Joe back love to see it !
Nice to see you back making videos!
When you're walking around near lava, it's a good idea to keep a bucket of water in your hotbar. You look up, then dump the water on the lava and it turns the lava to rock.
You got a good kid man, hope having him helps you through everything :) I can't wait to have kids and get them into Minecraft :)
I hope your kids don't get too much in to games, bc if they do is pretty fucked (I'm 16 and I can relate to being too much into gaming)
Does he really complain about minecraft being to hard? ._.
I think the real problem is that he really doesn't want to play the game, so he's just kind of looking for excuses as to why it sucks.
This is probably how my grandmother felt when I first introduced her to Super Mario Bros. For the NES. After she got the hang of it, she became amazingly good. She was the only grandma I knew that played video games. Kinda made me proud.
Hey Timmy. Just before the covid lockdowns I "Tested" minecraft to learn how to play it so I could teach my at the time 5 year old son and 4 year old daughter... Well 8 months of lock downs later.. I emerged from a 15,000 block long powered rail track in survivor mode. A 150 block tall Primary (with my excess rock diggings) a botanic garden with every tree in the game, a zoo with every animal in the game.. a house full of diamond blocks several farms.. It really got out of hand. The game is incredible saved both my and my fathers sanity when we couldn't see each other.. we played minecraft together, we fished, we dug mines. We play bedrock together now on PS5, PS4, PC. Great game. It depends on your personality if you prefer creative or survivor. My brother my Dad and I only play survivor, but kids and typical "pc nerds" generally like creative. Bedrock runs at zillions of frames a second on PC or PS5 even on PS4 it goes well, it's dead smooth on PS5, perfect. Java (is junk). As for Fornite.. I tested that out also.. got to level 235 last season..(I'm 50 years old btw)
The problem with the bedrock version is that it's not moddable and if you have an issue (like Timmy Joe does) you're basically fucked, while on java if you have an issue you can definitely fix it, also bedrock has pay to win servers while java servers is bound by it's stricter EULA forcing the big servers on java to not be pay to win, also as I said earlier, when you're done with the base game, on java you have mods to make the game harder or add new content, all for free, while on bedrock you have to pay for "mods" that barely do a fraction of what java mods can do, java's only problem is how poorly it runs
My little brother is just like Gibson!! I too have my own personal Minecraft encyclopaedia and I'm still slowly trying to encourage him to find other things. I can't blame him honestly because I was EXACTLY the same when I was a kid. I was a little older than him when MC came out and even made videos about it with my primary school friends. Good times! Thanks for the good laugh.
This is so funny as someone who regularly plays Minecraft, here is a tip enable coordinates and then you can find your stuff by memorizing your cords. Also you might want to disable vsync on the app data files, and you might want to allocate more ram to the java version.
Good on you for attempting to connect to your child's interests, my parents never really did that, and i was kinda just left with unmonitored access to the internet.
awsome vid... but most of all im just happy to see you recovering man... wishing you more blessing and will have you included in my prayers too. :)
I hobbled together a rig for my son to play on when he was 4 (i7 3770/RX 580 8GB) - he went from playing on the tablet version to the PC quick. Now it seems to run well on his rig and we've now had to buy multiple copies of the w10 version since everyone in the house has started playing it with him - hell when his friends come over they take over the laptops and his rig and play together. I get the frustration as I play from time to time with him but to me the game is mind numbing and the learning curve definitely is steep.
But as of the past year I have started getting my son to run strikes and quests on Destiny 2 instead and so far he is loving it.
Man, I am SUPER tempted to make my first "get good" comment, because a lot of this does all just come down to getting good at the game and having the patience to learn how to do stuff...but I think you're perspective as a noob here is actually really interesting, given the game. I think this game is the perfect example of one that was very basic when it was made, and then has been updated over time in a way that's really suited to all those people like me who have been around since 2011...it's so comprehensive that the updates just pile onto the stuff we already had to know, and I can't imagine trying to jump on the train now and learn everything all at once for the first time. When I first started, it was literally "build a shelter and don't let monsters kill you." That was it. You didn't even have to eat. They didn't even have the OPTION for creative mode yet, so modders came up with tools like InvEdit so we could add certain items to our inventories in our save files and then have them in-game. This game has come so far.
Is there an ini file that can be edited to work with a PC better?
My son's both love Minecraft. I have been watching the guide style series' with them for a while. It has made a huge difference to my understanding of the mechanics. It is frustrating to play a game that does not care if you actually learn how to be good.
4:28 hold space lol
This game renders on the CPU, like the entire game almost exclusively runs on the CPU. When you turn on ray-tracing all of the rendering gets offloaded to the GPU and therefore runs better with ray-tracing.
If you scroll all the way to the bottom under the video settings you can turn the chunks down on the bedrock version
I've been playing with my kids for about ten years. First it was my son and now my daughter. She's 9 and still plays the heck out of it. It's a lot of fun for us.
Good video Timmy! Good to see ya in better mood!
If you find default Minecraft unforgiving just hope that your son doesn't start playing RLCraft, that's a whole new level of pain.
Also I have the opposite problem to you on my R5 2600 & RX 580, the java edition runs poorly whilst the bedrock version is fine
@@efftee try with the Sodium mod, it helps with performance A LOT
Another amazing video as always!
Installing Windows 10 was your first mistake....
Never really got into Minecraft
Minecraft game for kids? I had no idea. Wait, that's not true. But interesting interpretation, I guess that is how someone judges a game based on those graphics.
Yeah this game seems like it just automatically assumes you know what you're doing. Which I think also helps with the community aspect because that when you need help you have other people to ask like friends and family.
Java Edition I feel is still The definitive Edition to play because you can actually make your own server, to make a game mode that you want to play.
Plus shaders, gotta have shaders.
Plus Optifine too.
I just realized how difficult Minecraft is. I am a veteran at Minecraft, but I never understood how hard it is. And now with all the updates it is even worse. Darn
G'day Timmy Joe,
Great to see you are a dad that joins your sons world, so many parents just expect their kids to do the parents favourite things even if the kid is bored, although frustrating please don't give up, as I bet the time you Minecraft with him is his most favourite part of the day.
I first played Minecraft on the Xbox 360 when it first came out on that platform back in 2012. Some of my best gaming memories with my friends started there. It's a very unique and complex game but extremely fun.
At 2:24 I began to laugh uncontrollably.
In the settings, especially when you start, switch to peaceful or easy so you can stock up to build yourself a starter base.
Once you're feeling confident bout your situation, switch up to normal (only if you really want to).
My man complained about 95 fps like that wasnt quite smooth
I've never related this much to a single UA-cam video 'til now
I can't say I'm much of a person for kids, but I couldn't help but smile whenever Gibson (hope I'm spelling that right) was on screen c:
A reason your FPS might be low is the render distance: if you go into the settings menu (esc), and scroll down to where it says render distance (you might need to go into a video settings menu, I don't usually play the Java version sorry), I'd recommend setting it to something like 16. Also, you can go into settings, world options, and enable coordinates to be able to find your way around the world easier. Hope this helps (and that it's correct lol). You can also see crafting recipes next to the inventory (it'll colours the ones you can't craft in red). A reason it runs so badly at high render distances is that it has _no_ form of LOD (they really should add it)
There's a game rule called keep inventory. if you don't have cheats enabled Don't worry just open the lan and allow cheats. Hopefully this helps you enjoy your first playthrough.
Lucky for me that me and my wife started playing around with minecraft when the first beta came out.
We did a playthrough before we had our first son, so we know the basics.
Then our first child came, when he was 4 we started a playthrough (survival from start to killing the ender dragon), we finished when he was already 5, took months to gather the damn ender eyes and fire rods.
Now, our second son is 5 and wanted us to play together, so we picked a world on our xbox, started, then moved to the series x, and are now midway through the search for the damn eye. We had one of those "temples" where the end portal shows up bugging out with the latest cliffs and caves patch (a new cave generated through it and deleted the portal.... then we had to seach for another temple, which was fuck far away from us, now that we found it we need to stablish a safe route from our huge multi-floor building base to that temple, preferably through the nether, I mean, through the huge lava ocean that separates our 2 portals, and at the same time proceed to gather the ender eyes to fight the dragon.
The good thing of us 4 playing together is that, my wife likes to dig and look for resources, I like to build and explore and my kids like the fights, makes for a very balanced party.
It's being a fun playthrough. The game changed a lot since we played it in the 360 and we haven't touched enchantments and potions yet this time.
Yes, there are graphics settings in the Windows 10 version. They’re just at the bottom of video settings.
V-Sync is turned ON by default and can’t be turned OFF since the DX12 update.
Your framerate is weirdly low on the Windows 10 version, indeed. I’ve got an R5 1600 + RX 5600 XT combo, but I can still get like 100 FPS at 64 chunks on max settings (without RTX, of course).
If you buy the Java Edition first, you get a free Windows 10 Edition license, too.
Also, for improved performance on Java Edition, use either the OptiFine mod or a combination of Sodium, Lithium, and Phosphor with the Fabric modloader.
I feel your pain!! Daughter has been playing for the last couple years. You have to try the "1 block" challenge!!! It's really fun!!! We both played on separate PCs and would compare our homes and see how far each one got. We use Java edition and controller
I love building complex redstone machines in survival. Theres a method to this madness, Timmy! Also, I run a Ryzen 2600 with an RX580 and have my render distance to 20 chunks, that seems to be the sweet spot for 100+ FPS.
Man I don't know what you are doing wrong, but I've never had these issues
As a kid (now 23yo) who grew up during Minecraft-mania and has the control set and game mechanics permanently scorched their brain, it's weird seeing this game age and the hype finally burn out. Watching this I was shocked that the controls would seem so foreign to somebody when growing up almost everyone I knew could play the game at some level. Watching the video I was thinking to myself "The controls are perfectly fine and the gameplay is meant to be that way! What the heck is so bad about it!?" And then I realized I sounded exactly like my dad talking about something through rose tinted glasses. I'll always love the game but that's just because it's like a weird childhood friend. People who grew up with them will understand them appreciate their quirks, but to everyone who didn't, and doesn't have that specific experience locked to that specific moment in time won't. And that's okay.
Growing up is weird.
Man I remember playing Minecraft at like 60 fps on a MacBook white 2009 back around 2012
You can change render distance in video settings
Max view distance runs in to an engine limitation (Cpu bound), turn down the draw distance and it should work (at least it did back in 2012 on an AMD Phenom 2 x6 1100t). Haven't played it for so long, I forgot that the Win 10 Bedrock actually exists haha.
does cloud version really force max chunk distance?
Minecraft was teen game before a kids game early alpha was played by adults and teens not kids
In the Java Edition you can allocate more of your RAM to the game within the settings of the installation. At the Main Launcher Menu at the top there should be a ribbon like menu with Play, Installations, Skins and Patch Notes on it. Click on the Installation tab and scroll over to the Installation you want to allocate more RAM to and click the three dots at the end of the highlighted box. Then click Edit and then look down the page for More Options and click that. Go to JVM arguments and modify the number within the -Xmx4096m argument to 7008, for example, which is what I have it on one of my installations for example. 8GB of RAM would be 8192. I'd recommend 8GB, as the default for MC is like 4 which is kinda crazy to be honest but this game is set to run on lower end hardware. I'd also say that 32GB of RAM for Minecraft isn't crazy. Higher frequency processors I believe are better for Minecraft as this game is not very multithreaded sadly. All the majority of the work is done on one core with another one for background tasks for instance.
By the 2 minuit mark I was asking the screen ' Why not build a Pi 3b local server and both log into it???"
You need to use the scroll wheel on the mouse in the video tab on the windows 10 version to scroll dowm and adjust the draw distance. The windows 10 version was originally designed for phones and tablets as the mobile version and they ported it over so the UI is very clunky and unintuitive.
Dude Gibson sounds JUST LIKE my nephew 🤣 All I had to hear was him describing his drawing and I cracked a big ol smile. 10/10 dad Timmy Joe
I found that to get decent frame rates you had to run a separate Minecraft server to handle all the world stuff, then the load wouldn’t be so bad on the PC you are gaming on.
Mc takes time to get good at. Ur doing great timmy. Keep it up!
Honestly its rather wierd how java on some systems doesnt even run well.
My friend has a Ryzem 3 1200 oc to 4ghz, 16gb ddr4 2666 and a 4GB RX 460 and the java version just runs like crap on the lowest settings. The bedrock version runs better but still with how mc has evoulved its crazy to understand for a begginer where to start with all these updates its just crazy.
This is the exact experience I have been living. Crossplay Minecraft on PC with my daughter on Switch. It is a complete pain in the ass.
Hey timmy the Java version actually gets updates before any other version as it's the one used for development and ya perf is highly dependant on alpha like rain and view distance. Public servers all have low render distance for that reason
"WHY?! All my stuff..." LMAO! I hope this becomes a series of some sort. Really entertaining.
Yeah @TimmyJoe: do a Minecraft series!
Sort of howto thinghy?
Do some collabs with vetereran minecraft youtubers... should be soooo much fun!
u can also allocate more ram to the game also which helps a little bit on the java side
Have you not tried scrolling in the video settings?
Having the Webbrowser open to search for stuff is part of the game. It could be much better, but I guess they never thought of improving this. The people that stick to the game will learn it through other sources and simply have the knowledge.
For the best FPS experience, the FOV/render distance/draw distance to the lowest. As less chunks will generate resulting in more FPS, works fine for me.
I know that with your hardware you wanna crank up the render distance, but you really can't. With a 10700 and RTX 3070, I still play on 12 chuck render distance on Java Edition, and that's pretty normal.
I'd recommend keeping render distance at 32 on Bedrock Edition and ~16 for Java Edition on higher end systems.
Because of the way Minecraft works, with the world being completely randomized, every block being able to be broken, moved, and replaced, it can't do what some other games can do with draw distance. Other games can unload distant areas and display lower res, static textures on simplified models when you get far away. In Minecraft, nothing is static, textures are already low res, and everything is blocks, nothing to simplify. So render distance has to be lower than other games because Minecraft has to unload everything to save performance. And unless your taking screenshots, it's usually completely fine, gameplay wise.
For Java Edition, I'd also recommend installing a mod called Optifine and turning on the performance settings. It's a widely used performance enhancing mod, and it's also allows you to get custom shaders on Java.
I'd recommend Sodium instead of Optifine, it generally gives A LOT more frames
there's also a mod in the works to add an LOD system to the game to have longer render distance, but it's kinda half baked for now
@@My_Old_YT_Account, I wouldn't recommend Sodium over Optifine for casual players because it has less features and is harder to install. It's open source and that's great, but unless you're willing to tinker with other mods and stuff, it could provide a worse experience for beginners.
A fully working LOD mod would be insane though, I hope they keep working on that
One thing that has helped with FPS is turning off vsync for windows 10
My 5 year old loves it too. Always getting me to download new mods for him too.
Don’t forget to upgrade the map to make it bigger 😅
You can adjust render distance, just scroll down in video settings and you'll see it. Also if you want more frames on the java version install optifine.
no excuse on an rtx 3080ti though
@@luider8795 i have never see such bad frames and I play with a GTX 1660
Try allocating more memory .. i think the 3080 driver doesnt play nice with mc ... i get better fps on my 1070ti and 8700
are you sure why can't it do it for him after all it's a Microsoft game why can't it at least have the ability to allocate the memory it needs for running the game properly on it's own like any other game?
@@raven4k998 it defaults to 2gb of ram but u can allocate more because some servers have a lot of mods ... allocating more mem might help im not sure ... its prob a driver support issue ... after all the java version is what everyone should buy
I have the same issue with my RTX 3070 & Ryzen 3600x, it's actually insane.
Weird. 1070ti and 2700x running in a virtual machine with hardware passthrough and the Linux side running docker and bds and I still get 65 fps in my world with a render distance of 64.
If you get motion sick, turn off view bobbing and if necessary adjust your FOV. It also helps to take regular breaks. For me, disabling view bobbing in Minecraft is key or else I feel like I'm gonna puke after a bit of playing it.
I play the java version and love it, got I to it 10 years late, use shader mods and play with friends. It's fun that way, with cooperation and adventure.
I guess I’m lucky that I played Minecraft back in 2011, because when my son got into it all I had to ask was what he wanted to play it on. I do not envy you having to learn all this stuff now.
Started playing rip-off minecraft looking games back in 2013..ish, today I’m 18 and when I was 14 I got a 3rd party minecraft Java version for free in order to play with some friends, been playing since then, I’ve really forgotten this game since early February, thanks for reminding me after all this time, don’t worry I’m still as confused as you man, the game is just so complicated and you always have to know a minecraft nerd in order to explain you the problem you’re having, I recommend playing simple and not trying to make the biggest building or something, enjoy the game with your son as much as you guys love
windows 10 edition does have graphic settings you will find them in the video settings when you scroll down and lower the draw distance my pc is 10 years old and i, using a amd a 10 7800 cpu and a radeon 240 gpu and i get over 100 fps on java and windows 10 if you download soemthing called forge for minecarft and add that to the games files then you can add mods to the game such as optifine the best mod for the game it fixes the game stutters and triples or quadruples your frame rate and it also gives you alot more graphic settings to like lazy chuck loader and clear water and olot more
My son is also a walking Minecraft encyclopedia. The kind thats never stops talking about it and who does not hesitate to interrupt talking adults with the classic phrase: "but it is important... In minecraft ya da ya da..."
I need a cure for it.
Oh man,I'm here with you !!!
Tried to play the PS3 Version.
Still, can't get the "why so much people play it" .....
While making pc for gaming, about 4 years already, only ONCE I've been asked about Minecraft.........
The old console versions honestly just aren't fun unless you play local multiplayer or you only have a console and you absolutely want to play solo minecraft, the java version is the one you want to get for solo or online multiplayer
I feel ya bub..... two sons. 4 and 7. Plus two nephews. 7 and 9. Luckily mine aren't too obsessed with only Minecraft. When my 7 year old wanted to get it years ago it was exactly as frustrating as you are saying.
I remember the times when i had the creativity in minecraft, you should cherish these times.
I am in my thirties and have played minecraft since beta, people laugh at using high end hardware to play but this just goes to show why I am upgrading from an i7 and 2070 to a i9 and hopefully 3080. No tutorial is actually a great part of the game, and there is a wiki if needed.
Honestly this sounds like me, at 50, trying to play Warzone without buying anything.
try using an external launcher like Lunar client or Badlion on java, they come with Optifine which gives much more graphics settings and just an overall performance boost, also try allocating more ram to the game in the game settings in the launcher because it is a must to have more than 4 gigs allocated if you are using max render distance.
Looking back at the old days like 2013 there was no such thing as Microsoft accounts with minecraft and it was soo easy to set things up...now you need a microsoft account for starting the game
i wonder if you found out how to change setting in windows 10 Minecraft it not to hard and draw distinct Is changeable
Glad i started out with java, and made sure the kids did that too. i know nothing about windows 10 version.
Protip, don't have a render distance more then 12(java). and no more then 10 on a server, unless the default server setting is changed. Also, kids usually don't make 8/16bit processors or GPU's inside minecraft with redstone... sure, "kids" game.
Atleast in java since June 7, 2017 version 1.12 there is a crafting help book. so you can see what you can craft when you have held new materials. Also learning to play the game from a child might not be the best experience.
My son has a mild degree of tourettes, i can't imagine trying to learn the game from what he would insctruct me in what to do. He mixes up the order of things so i have to be a detective to piece togther what he is actually trying to tell me. This goes for anything. a sentence he says, makes sence on it's own. But the order of "this happend then that happend, and that's why this is the result" gets mixed up.
Anyway, sadly i don't play windows 10 version, and we are in completely different time zones, otherwise i would gladly help you learn the game and the game mechanics that i know. Have been playing since beta 1.5(2009). And still play once in a while.
