#the betweenlands

[chiromaw]

ive been playing on a new 100% betweenlands save with the halloween update for a few days now and i gotta say. i think i might downgrade because oh my god caves are so unbelievably fucking scary now HGBHGFBFBG ive only encountered a stalker twice and ive never even actually caught sight of it before ive just heard the footsteps and seen my torches dissapear... i aint even SEEN it and i am shaking in my boots. completely changes the way i mine in this mod HFBJFFB AND DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE INFESTATIONS GOD

there is absolutely no other mod for minecraft that makes me feel this level of utter dread. shit man im not really a gamer with a wide variety so id go as far to say ive never played any game that makes me feel this level of dread LOL absolutely nothing like visiting an area where you KNEW you lit the shit out of it with torches and seeing it completely dark. realizing you where being stalked the entire time you where down there. looking up at the ceiling and suddenly hearing the scamper-like footsteps of something that you couldnt quite see.

the stalker is amazing and it has an amazing AI but god damnit FHDHFHFB

#betweenlands #i made a skin for myself so i can play as kro just to immerse myself a little more HBGBGBGBG #OH OH ALSO I RAIDED MY FIRST MATRIARCH NEST ABOUT AN HOUR AGO IT WAS FUN #I GOT 3 EGGS
