The iron golem kills zombie villagers to protect the rest of the village. The Golem probably doesn’t want to, but has to for the greater good of the village.

Evil is evil. Lesser, greater, middling--it makes no difference. The degree is arbitrary. The definition is blurred. If I'm to choose between one evil or another.. I'd rather not choose at all.

It makes sense that the iron golem still targets zombified villagers, because they may attack villagers

[@Fishysalmon02]

I've always thought it made Sense that the iron golems killed zombie villagers. I mean, I think in universe the villagers made the golem, and it's a logical choice for the villagers to make the iron golem kill zombie villagers so that they don't spread the infection further

[@JoshD4PREZ]

Have you or anyone ever seen a stronghold in survival spawn underneath a village with NO portal room, NO monster spawner, yet it still has a library & silver fish everywhere? I checked it out with spectator mode too, I’m baffled lol

[@Eyecraftmc]

Interesting, whats the seed?

[@relaxn3918]

Something similar happened to me in bedrock edition(1.18). It was just the staircase and nothing else. I went to creative after this and I realized thre was nothing else besides part of a hallway.

[@gurjeet_jim2151]

In my vedrock world I searched whole stronghold, it was opening in caves at some places and then we found an incomplete frame of endportal with no lava and in a cave

[@DEN_13]

this happened to me on pocket edition (1.0.6) where there were only 2 rooms

[@juluke8385]

seems cap unless you give seed

[@spinz5937]

I believe the reason you can't replace a non-solid block with water unlike regular blocks is because water and lava have their own fluid mechanics. I know this because in the debug screen, under the part that says "targetted block", it also says "targetted fluid"

[@TychoKingdom]

Petition for stripped cactus that can be placed like logs.

[@stevenfisher7828]

Something interesting about light. In bedrock, when making an iron golem, the light from the jack-o-lantern would remain behind even after the block disappeared. This was a couple years ago I noticed this so I'm not sure if it still works, but if it does, it would be a nice way to get invisible lighting in a survival world

[@BabyMatiny]

Personally i always felt minecraft was post appocalyptic, not medeival, but kinda why its a such a good game to so many i guess. A lot of interpretive elements, meant to make your own world/game out of it kinda

[@oskarnybakken847]

you got me thinking

[@JesseP.Watson]

Interesting. I can't very well say what it appeared as to me... a kind of sci-fi, I think I'd place it there. A lone wandering miner on a distant planet covered with strange ruins. Funny, makes me think, I don't think I ever really got their effort for "realism" e.g. farm animals and tree varieties etc. I wonder if it would have been stronger if all those things were alien. ...Since the red-stone and landscapes have a fantastical, alien feel. The sheep and cows never quite fitted in to me.

[@christina5949]

A minor idea: for people that use captions, all of the titles get covered up. It might be a good idea in future videos to have the titles at the top of the screen for hearing impaired.

[@jvseventeen]

Did you know that you can just buy tipped arrows of weakness from a fletcher (if you are lucky enough to get it as your last trade) and use that instead of the splash potion of weakness for zombie villager curing? I tried this and it works which means that you don't need to brew the splash potions of weakness which means that it is possible to make a zombie villager infecting and curing stations early to mid game. Also this video was awesome!

Fun fact, or more just to bring to notice. The glitched arrow might also be possible in survival if you have a parrot ride on your shoulder. I was trying to shoot a creeper and skeleton when a parrot landed on my shoulder and began to move around in the same way as it did to you here in creative mode. Again it might be consistent or maybe not, but just wanted to let you know.

Re: Sunflower Indeed! I played in MCPE for a while before they finally added an option to display coordinates on the HUD. While I could navigate the surface with compasses and maps, in the Nether I had to put down a milestone grid and always carry sunflowers!

hello eyecraft, thank you for all useful videos you upload for us minecraft players out here❤️

[@WalllessInk]

13:40 the thing is, that the the Minecraft with a boat on a normal rails goes as fast as the normal minecart on the powered rails, so it will be a VERY BIG save of resources. Also 2 people can sit in this minecart at the same time, so this thing is actually very OP.

[@chicagotypewriter2094]

villager transport!!!

[@JoachimVampire]

the boat minecart trick is beyond fenomenal because you can ride 2 mobs on the boat, while the boat technically sit on the cart, so you need only one cart for two mobs. it also is amazing to load villagers between big distances because you can sit in the boat along a villager and if you press S/W the cart will be quite fast in the rails without the use of golden rails AND will allow the boat to go upwards in a slope if you have rails

[@koolerpure]

iron golems paired with snow golem sentries are my favorite combo. the boat minecart could be cool if you rode the cart into the water and then were able to steer to the track system you want to be in and then just drive up on land and ride off on the tracks

[@jvseventeen]

I think the theory behind mangrove root placement is that roots above ground tend to go down, towards/into the ground. Muddy roots are already in the ground, and thus might not go straight down, but sideways instead to find more nutrients. The logic isn't fully sound, as lots of roots do go sideways above ground, but it makes the most sense to me.

I didn't know about the empty village rarity! I once had a world where I found 2 empty villages near each other and 1 big village close by as well!

[@Nekzuris]

One thing that made zombie village so rare is that they generation wasn't based on the world seed, so you couldn't share a seed with a zombie village, you had to find it by exploring but I think this was changed in 1.18

[@juluke8385]

That doesn't really make them rare

[@jvseventeen]

@@juluke8385 I think they meant, if one person found a seed with it, and shared that seed with someone else, it wouldn't have that village necessarily. Thus making it hard for anyone to find them without looking for them on their own, which a lot of people don't have time to do, or don't know how to do, or just can't because they're playing survival and just don't have the resources yet to set out on an exploration trip to an unknown destination that they may or may not find. Doesn't really make them rare, technically, but it did make them harder to find, and harder to just follow someone else's example by going to the same seed and doing the same things. Which means a lot of people probably just didn't bother unless they lucked into it. Personally I didn't even know they existed til I found one accidentally in survival one day. Had to load up a creative version of the same world to verify that it was supposed to look like that lol
