What level of difficulty should the Minecraft world on the Patreon server be?
🕑 Added 2020-06-24 23:54:51 +0000 UTCHey everybody! As I've been thinking about the server and working with Skynode to set it up, I realized that I should probably reach out to all of you for help in selecting the proper world difficulty! Attached to this post you'll find a poll. Please take a second to vote on it, as I'd like for you all to have an input on the world we play in!
I am however, only going to limit this poll to 2 options, Normal and Hard. Personally I find Easy difficulty way too easy, and Peaceful...well...we wouldn't get the true Minecraft experience on Peaceful difficulty, especially not in the new Nether in 1.16!
A couple of things to keep in mind tho:
1. We play on Hard difficulty on the Legacy SMP server. While things can be a little rough in the early game, once you get that diamond armor and a shield you should be totally fine! Also, it'll be multiplayer so if you are having trouble with something there should be others online who can help. It's all about that community support right? :)
2. Hard mode can offer our server a unique benefit! On Hard difficulty, villagers killed by zombies will ALWAYS turn into zombie villagers. This means you can cure them (splash potion of weakness + a golden apple) and get discounted villager trades. On Normal difficulty there is only a 50% chance of this happening, meaning they have a chance of dying and disappearing forever (this really hurts when your villager dies who was offering a Mending book lol). Hard mode will allow us to safely and effectively infect and cure villagers, should one of you choose to setup some kind of villager trading hall or something. I've done something like this in my Legacy SMP series and it's actually quite fun and prices from my villagers now are DIRT cheap!
If you can't tell, I'm a bit biased now towards playing on Hard difficulty, but this server is for YOU guys so I want you to be the ones who choose the difficulty.
Lastly, just as an FYI, I'm setting this poll for Pro and Elite level Patrons only, since you guys will be the ones with access to the Minecraft server. Thanks so much for voting!

I just became a patron! Excited for the server to be up and running.
Don’t play on hard all too often, but I’m up for it on a server!
