Why Netherite Replacing Diamond is Huge

  • With the Minecraft 1.16 Nether Update, diamond gear has finally been ousted as the highest tier in the game by new Netherite. This is a historic change to Minecraft's tech tree and could have huge consequences to the future roadmap.

    The way Netherite is implemented was very smart, make it rare, hard to find, but you only need to find little of it and combine it with diamond materials, so you cant skip the diamond stage.

    • @teamFlemiX94
      @teamFlemiX94 4 роки тому +976

      you need to find 4 for each piece of gear so if you want to do a full set (sword ,pick shovel , axe and all the pieces of armor) you'll need 32 Netherite,you'd need 33 diamond for the same set (28-32 without the shovel), so you still have to mine a lot to get it

      This process makes sure diamonds won't be obsolete, which is super important. This change is really cool, the way they implemented it is really well.

    Since 1.9 controversy, Mojang have never introduced any new game-changer features. They were scared getting another backlash from players. The introduction of a new ore really shows how Mojang finally decided to take a leap of faith and take a huge step in the game development. In my opinion, this means that Mojang will keep this trend and we will get to see even more unusual and interesting mechanics.

      I have to wonder if they had the foresight to do this because of Hytale? (In some capacity, not wholly) Because I could see Minecraft's zietgheist loosing some air when Hytale comes out. Given it's driven by a team that popularity alone shows they understand VERY well why Minecraft was so successful and fun.
      Minecraft taking the leap to try something new, and Hytale pushing forward to not live in it's shadow. I hope we get to see the relationship between these games blossom into a healthy rivalry, for the good of everyone involved.

    I posted this in a comment chain, but I thought other people might like it:
    “...[for example] it takes 8 diamonds AND four gold AND four netherite scrap to make a chestplate , any enchantments on the chestplate are lost, netherite “ore” (ancient debris) is rarer than diamond, each “ore” only gives a fourth of a netherite ingot, there is the nether to deal with, and each netherite ingot also needs 4 gold
    If you do the math, for a full set of diamond armor and tools (axe, shovel, hoe, sword, and pickaxe), it needs 35 diamonds. For a full netherite set of armor and tools, there is a need for 35 diamonds, 32 gold, and 32 netherite scrap.
    I think this is balanced enough.”

    I can't get over how awesome this video is.
    Not just your excellent substantiated disquisition about the topic -- but especially how you used footage from the game in such subtle ways to highlight the points you're making.
    I love the way Netherite has been implemented, it's not a huge mandatory expansion on top of diamond. But I find another substance arguably more revolutionary in 1.16 -- Gold. Wearing it makes Piglins friendly? You can barter gold with them? Gold was useless, but is now essential for safety in the Nether, and can be converted into all kinds of other resources. They're finding brilliant ways to break materials out of the tier system!
    Which makes me think: What if they expanded more into "silly quirks". Heavy armor makes you run a bit slower. Iron gear is dangerous to wear in a thunderstorm. A leather outfit increases your horse riding speed, and bows/tridents/lances/spears do increased damage when used from a horse. Small shields allow more vision, but big shields protect more. Flails with long chains have more reach, but slower swing. Wands, carefully constructed from various wood types, infused with rare mob drops can sling spider webs into the world, heal a friend, or lift a mob into the air. I think there are so many ways to make combat more interesting using variety & archetype choices, instead of just tiering!

    I see this as the beginning of Minecraft expanding outwards, not building inwards. Instead of adding an overworld biome, or mob, or fixing up villages (all which are good), mojang is starting to delve into the fantastical, something that I've always hoped for (which is why im so hyped for Hytale). Minecraft, in my opinion, needs to expand outward, adding cool, new items that, while not changing the game's core, increase the depth and progression, and exploration part of the game.

      Kerem Akyildiz diamond isn’t “the symbol” of the game. It’s an ore, plain and simple. If the progression system is changed then so what. Also netherite isn’t even required, it’s just something you CAN get. Diamond is still REALLY good and it’s not like you’re able to bypass it.

    The thing is, although it's a tiny difference between tiers, it's treated like a massive advance. You *feel* like you've gotten further. You've upgraded from Iron to Diamond armour? Cool! Not too massive of a protection boost, but suddenly you have the confidence to go hunting in the nether. Upgrade from Iron tools to Diamond tools? Well, the difference is still marginal, but it just seems like you're stronger. The idea of fighting the Ender Dragon with iron is absurd to most people, yet fighting them with Diamond has always been a perfectly reasonable idea. It's what it *feels* like that matters, not what it *is* like.

      This change kind of miss the point, as the game's primary progression curve still revolves around enchantment and enchantment make all the difference, not the tool material.
      At maxed out player effective HP (protection 4 diamond armor) a player can practically swim in lava for 30 second and survive a player continuously attacking by eating beef. Compare that to unenchanted armor and you are looking at 10-15 second max survival time or 4-5 shot with a power 5 bow.

      Not gonna lie, I rarely use diamonds whatsoever.
      Like, I basically just use iron until I can throw mending on my diamond kit, and just keep it for display until then. There's one exception to this: If I decide to go the village construction route, I tend to produce so many emeralds that I never mine and instead just buy a full diamond kit.
      Diamonds in Minecraft can be obtained without ever mining these days because of shipwrecks and buried chests.
      I also usually go into the nether with only an iron kit because doing so with diamond is an unnecessary risk. Basically, the only times I use a full diamond kit is specifically for the end fight and/or wither fights. Else, there's not much of a reason to bother.

    This is why I like Terraria more than Minecraft. You can't just be done with a world in a day with nothing left to look forward to. In Terraria I spent like 120 hours of playing before killing the final boss. During that time I had spent a huge amount of time just exploring, grinding and building too. And the mining was fun too, because you never just mine, you usually kill monsters and look for ores at the same time. Let's face it, mining in Minecraft has some occasional glimpses of interestingness in forms of caves and... gravel I guess but ultimately is just boring. Every cave even looks exactly the same with just ravines and mining complexes. There are like 4 monsters to meet....etc etc.
    I could go on and on. This is why I told everyone who asked me if Terraria is just 2D Minecraft I answered that Minecraft is just very basic 3D version of Terraria. If Minecraft goes this route and adds enough interesting items, locations, colors and just overall stuff to do, it will atract a lot of new players and make the current ones cream their pants with every new update.

      @@terrylap6132 Why do you disagree? Would Minecraft necessarily loose its peacefullness if it became more Terraria like? I mean, you would still have your house, your garden and a dog you are afraid to take hunt with you because you already gave him a name and maybe grew a little attached to. But now you could leave your peacefull house and standard mines and go somewhere, where the very hard monsters and good loot are. And after that you would dare to go to an even more dangerous and rewarding location knowing that there are many more you would have to get better to visit. If you truly believe your argument, I imagine you don't like Nether and End as well. After all, both are harder dimensions, that challenge this peacefull playstyle (Even if only by just a bit, which is my complaint).

    Diamond still has use due to a few reasons.
    1. You need diamond to make netherite tools
    2. Because crafting netherite remove enchantments some player may keep their good set of diamond armour which can be used when flying over the void in the end.
    3. I believe diamond can and will still be used for server currency due to netherites rarity.

    This video makes me think: what's gonna happen to the end city loot? It's supposed to be the best you can get, so then you'd expect Netherrite tools (as it's in all aspects better). However, finding Nether-related items in the End feels a little weird for me. My prediction: Mojang plans to add something similar for the End: a rare material that buffs a diamond tool in a different way. And make the two mutually exclusive, so you'll have to choose between Nether and End tools. This could be interesting.

    I mean, depending on the overall response the public has to this new tier, we could be looking at much more freedom in what Mojang does in the future, adding more powerful items and bosses could be coming our way. Though you could always say that this sort of thing would ruin what makes Minecraft Minecraft. Minecraft is very sandbox oriented, it has some progression and goal systems, but as SimplySarc said, this game is about making your own goals. Adding more tiers of bosses and weapons could force people down a more directed route, which not everyone will love. It's a very hard balance between these two situations, freedom for the player and giving them goals to strive for so they don't feel lost. Though this small addition to the game is sure to have either large repercussions, or to disappear into unuse.

I don't feel 3 diamonds and a diamond pickaxe with Efficiency 2 is max-tier loot. They're already pretty stingy with loot, Mojang has so many items to play with yet they're giving away bad enchants. Where's mending? Max enchant diamond tools? Even a nice bow would be a good addition. I personally feel all loot in the game is bad, from early game to end game.

You only need diamond ore for jukeboxes and enchantment tables, the latter of which you need precisely one of.

    I really like how they made gold have a common use with the Piglins. You have to have a sort of gold armor and trading with gold is better than trading with villagers, making gold tier useful

    This update in general really made me excited for Minecraft updates again, rather than just cautiously optimistic. Netherite was one of those reasons, and not because I think it's overpowered or anything. It was for pretty much these exact reasons, though I have not seen it put this coherently.

      I wonder what Sarc has against modpacks. I feel like he only saw the beginnings of a skyblock pack or something.

      @@Smubear Probably that. I see his point, there are some modpacks that literally give you a goal book at the start and give you item rewards for completing different parts of it, those packs I'd never play. I like having the same freedom in my modpack as I do in Vanilla, except this time I can nuke people and industrially destroy the environment

      I only play modded and when I make a crafting table in vanilla I always try to make it a crafting bench and I just get confused.

      Yeah... Some modpacks (especially early questing packs) were built precisely like he described; uninspired, mindless, and boring. Recent packs (and mods) have gotten a lot better about it, though; they’ve moved away a bit from single-block solutions to everything, but only if you right click them for an hour, to more complex industry that works as a puzzle to set up and optimize. It’s great! (Also, if anyone here is looking for a modpack, I recommend The Ancient Cake on curseforge; it’s excellent and the questbook is entirely optional (I played before the questbook was added and I’m starting into lategame).
