SUBJECT: Vibrant Visuals And Creators
I think Vibrant Visuals is one of the greatest additions to Minecraft in a long time. For both performance, and for players, I think it’s a great modernization of the game.
How do you think Vibrant Visuals will affect creators like yourselves, and other Youtubers, and streamers? Do you plan to use them? Do you foresee content creators playing with Vibrant Visuals on or off?
Thanks!

SUBJECT: Alternate Happy Ghast Renewal
Hi Joel, and Pix! (And Eloise!)
While I am happy that we’ve been provided with a means to get happy ghasts renewably, crafting the dessicated husk of a ghastling seems a little… Odd? Morbid? Creepy? Instead, what if there was a modification to an existing mechanic / challenge in the game – An Uneasy Alliance.
While the current version of the challenge requires you to get a ghast to the overworld, and kill it, perhaps there could be a conversion mechanic once it is in the overworld to turn a standard ghast into a happy ghast or ghastling by hitting it snowballs, or feeding it ghast tears to “hydrate” it into a happy ghast? Or players could hit the ghast with fire charges or trap it on top of dripstone to “dehydrate” it down to a ghastling?
“Mighty” curious to hear your thoughts on this possibility!
Elkhorn95 died trying to feed a ghast its own tears in the overworld to make it happy.
Thank you to our Patrons!
