    The reason the clock was added was back in Alpha stage of Minecraft, there were no beds - meaning you had to figure out what time you could come out on the overworld when you were mining deep underground.
    The reason the compass was added is for the same reason - beds couldn't set spawn. And even when they were added in Beta 1.3, they still could not set spawn until Beta 1.4_01. So compasses were used to track were your spawn was and could be a very good tool to help locate your base if you know which way your compass pointed towards your base.
    ..Of course, both of them were useless after those updates - and even so, the coordinates were still the biggest push back the compass had.

      The clock wouldn't be useless if it was more readable and intuitive. It would still be useful for an underground base.

      ​@@GoldenGrenadierI literally do still use clocks for this exact purpose. I have a completely enclosed ravine base that has no access to natural sunlight in any way and I installed clocks around it for exactly what you said :)
      Honestly they're really not that hard to read I don't think, they just display a day and night dial and you just have to see how visible each is and you'll know what time it is (keeping in mind that the time of day advances clockwise), it's pretty intuitive and wouldn't be hard to retexture into a conventional clock for anybody that would want to as well

      Me too, which is why I find it odd that the two items that ARE designed like this, the lodestone and recovery compass, require rare resources to craft. I feel like the lodestone could have easily used an iron block, since iron is magnetic. The recovery compass is at least justifiable in that, by the time you’ll reliably be able to get it, you’ll probably have items good enough to be worth recovering.

    Recovery compass just needs a buff. It could make your "soul" visible through blocks so that you can see exactly where you died (a glowing effect of some kind). Or even just make your prior dropped items glow so you can find and recover them quicker.

      That seems fair tbh. Most people are pretty adept at finding their death locations at this point.
      It could locate the nearest city to the location where it's crafted. Maybe you would right click to lock in the location, that way you can travel to new chunks and check there.

    "Lodestones are useless because I have coordinates"
    "Why would I vote for the Glare when I have F3"
    "Why do I need recovery compass if coordinates display on death"
    People treat F3 like an actual feature and it's gotten to the point mojang can't remove F3 because players would complain that we can't know the mathematical best level to mine every ore.
    If any other game allowed you to look under the hood and made many parts of the game easier/ useless by doing so we would collectively call the game unfinished and unbalanced.

    I think a neat way to go about it would be to take a page from Terraria's book - rather than have the compass items point you to your spawn or death point, have them instead teleport you to those points, like how the mirrors function in Terraria. It would give them value despite new updates making them redundant. To balance them, you can either have them on a shared cooldown (you can't use both sequentially - using one triggers the cooldown for the other), or make it so they can only be used if their target location is in the same dimension, meaning you can't use them to fast-travel to the Nether or The End if you died in either. Alternatively, you could make them consume resources as a cost for teleportation, with the amount lost being dependent on distance - thus creating an incentive to not abuse them and only use them if absolutely necessary.

Typically getting my stuff back is a bit more urgent and something I'm frustrated about, so unlike the leisurely stroll home where I don't mind taking my time to figure out where to go, I appreciate having a "Go Here" arrow that updates as I get closer and closer.

    I honestly like the new death screen. Never used the compass though. You shall be missed.

    maybe the recovery compass could work like a totem of undying. but instead, it teleports you to your respawn point with all your stuff.
