The Ultimate Minecraft 1.20 Survival Guide - New World To Elytra 

thousands of hours on minecraft and this video is still so enjoyable

There is no one that does it like this guy. I've been intimidated by some of the scenarios in minecraft because I'm bad at combat in the game and also very easily get stressed, but with Eyecrafts videos it becomes less scary. A sincere thanks from me. ❤

i really apreciate how you always include tips for bedrock players because i noticed that most other youtubers just assume everybody is on java or doesnt know much about bedrock but you always seem to add in stuff like “if your on bedrock you need to” “or if your on bedrock” etc.

Some Minecraft RU-vidrs would take 60 episodes to cover this much material. You created the Cliff Notes version! Well done. Great editing.

I’d have to say that this is the most underrated Minecraft channel right now

The fact that you do not get bored watching a 1 hour video on youtube in 2023 is mind-blowing really great editing and commentary good job

I never played, watched, or knew much about Minecraft until a few months ago. Got into it because my 4 year old son liked building and its hard to find a guide like this on the actual playthrough. Thank you for this

idk why I am watching this video when I have played minecraft for 12 years

He is good at being chill, and not overwhming the viewer with too much stuff, and balances without over simplifing or dumbing it down. That can be a tough balance!

People with 4000 hours whatching this video:

I think right now fastest way to get into comfortable stage for long-term game plans is scout for village -> create breeding chamber for villagers -> create an early trade hall -> get diamond gear -> get elytra -> create Enderman XP farm -> create an iron farm -> create gold farm -> create mob farm -> create sugar cane farm -> create final version of trade hall using void trading -> max your gear with enchantments (also it's time to scout for Soul Speed and Swift Sneak) and create some backup and swap setup -> use TNT to cover all your gear with Netherite -> create stacking raid farm for infinite totems -> scout end for end cities to get swap elytra and fill endchest with shulkerboxes -> create mid base and Nether HUB with hyperloops to every places you need -> create wither skeletons farm -> find wither's bedrock killing spot -> cover every places you're using with beacons. At this place you have all basic stuff for any big project you're interested in and further progression highly depends on it. Like, you may be need Guardians/Sheep/Dirt/etc farm, all belong to materials you're interested in. It may seems like a huge list, but IMHO if you ready to spend thousands of hours in your survival projects, this is definitely fastest way to get into comfort place. And ofc speed of execution of this list depends entirely on your experience, skills and knowledges and there's thousands of tips, how you can get through it faster. But in general - use schematics to count materials you need and not waste time mining more that necessary, watch for speedrunning strats, it can save plenty of time on early stages and don't waste time creating early farms, that you will be rebuild in really small amount of time. P.S. I really appreciate and respect your work on creating this video, it's really helpful for new players or for those ppl, who just wanna soft and relaxing gameplay. I'm just putting here a plan for more advanced and long-term playthrough.

Here are a few tips for the end (-cities) 1. use slabs instead of whole blocks to build across. 2. End cities generate in a grid. And always in chunks that are a multiple of 20. So it's best to look at the chunks coordinate (F3) and make sure it's a multiple of 20. Once you have done this, you only need to run straight in one direction. (The probability that the end city is on the chunk coordinates that are a multiple of 20 (for example 80 and -120) is about 45% (of course there has to be an island there and not just void).

Haha, the video about dyes and rockets you shortened from 40 to 20 mins, now you upload a full hour! As someone with a bit more attention span than a squirrel, I love it!!

Top tip, learned via experience: upon receiving your elytra, do not forget that without your netherite chestplate you are susceptible to lava and wither skeletons!

the thing I love about minecraft is that you are never forced to go at a certain pace, for me I’ve had a survival world for almost year coming on and off, and I still haven’t beat the wonder dragon but will soon, so yh I love this aspect, makes the game less stressful

I started in alpha and never have I enjoyed Minecraft more than playing the way you explained. It's such a pleasure to have the items I need BEFORE I go building complex frustrating structures.

if you dont want to progress normally, you can use the villagers, give one a flethcing table and one a smithing table, and then trade sticks for ems, use those to level the toolsmith, and then he can trade you iron tools, and eventually diamond ones. you can also use a blast furnace for full diamond armor selling villager, all from selling sticks. for weapons, get a weaponsmith using a grindstone

This guy has the best vids on Minecraft.

i just found your channel like 4 days ago maybe and i’ve been hooked ever since like i watch them religiously. you do amazing in depth breakdowns it got me back into minecraft. all this new stuff makes me feel old to see how far minecraft has came with all the childhood memories flowing in since day 1.

I get that every mob in Minecraft is purely AI, but I always feel obligated to be nice to things such as villagers, especially after the Village and Pillage Update where your main objective in villages is to protect them from the illagers. I always replant crops and if I can help it I craft my own bed so someone doesn’t have to sleep on the floor 🤣

Hey eyecraft. I don’t know if you remember me, but I was on one of your streams, and asked for advice on how to get back into my survival world. I’ve recently done that, and it’s been really fun. Thanks for reading this, if you did

I stopped playing Minecraft many many years ago when you started having to pay for it, because I was still in school. Now that I’m back playing, I’ve been binge watching all your videos, and learning so much about the amazing new world I’m in. Thank you eyecraft 😊

I’ve played Minecraft for my entire life and know the game from top to bottom, yet I still watched this entire video. Thank you for creating such entertaining and informative content. Keep up the good work ❤

this is a great video and information for someone who is new to minecraft, easy to follow and alot of fun to watch. you dont need to have full diamond armour and max enchants on it at all. i hate being knocked off the pillars when needing to destroy the crystals so i use potion of slow falling to help me out with that scary situation. even when the dragon throws you in the air :)

25:44 Like if you saw the death screen for a split second

I've been waiting for this guide for months! thank you very much .. was so helpful!

Thousands of hours later, and I still find this video super useful. Extremely well thought out progression and tips. And different perspectives I've never thought of. Probably the best MC intro/tutorial video I've ever seen!

This is such a versatile guide and you presented it so neatly and clearly, including so many variations for different situations and circumstances one could find them in. It's wild how simple and straightforward you make things that have taken me countless in-game days to even begin. Thanks for an incredible guide, as always, Eye!

Find you a month ago. You really make some interesting content! I love the way you explain and your voice and of course the examples! Keep it up!

I've been playing minecraft for a long time and know my way around, but I'm still watching this video. For one, there could be something I don't know or a way of doing something better, and for two, eyecraft's content is wonderful to watch! This must have taken so much work, thank you for making this, I think it's gonna do really well ^ - ^

Played along with this and had a great time! Thank you, looking forward to following more of your videos.

I have always been more of a creative sided minecrafter, but with this guide I can hopefully get into survival more! Thanks a lot!

After playing Minecraft since around 1.5, I’ve come to love taking it slow in survival. I’ve been in my world for around 6 months now and I still haven’t been to the nether. Instead I’ve been focusing on mining and building up my base. Not saying I’ll never progress further through the game, but it gives me something to look forward to later.

I literally have no reason or purpose to watch this video other than I enjoy your content. Lol 😂 I’m so OP in my survival but you dish out great videos and I keep learning new tips that I never knew 🤟

Thank you so much for this video, finallly had the courage to beat the ender dragon after years of playing on minecraft lol im having so much fun with my elytra, hope you make more vids like this!

I just want to say how much I enjoy listening to your videos. So often I’ll be doing housework or dishes and I can’t watch a video, so I will listen to something. I find your guides perfect to listen to so thank you! ❤

Thank you for always making great content for us!

Awesome video eyecraft. I have learnt alot from this video. Keep up the good work bro

I have never seen a minecraft guide this good keep it up my friend And U earned a sub

This must have been so much work to assemble! Thank you so much for the great guide!

Only thing I'll add to the nether fortress section is building the wither skeleton barrier at every intersection entrance as well as a couple on long stretches of the castle, that way it's easier to avoid being surrounded.

I think the best thing a skilled player can do is hit an ancient city first. It can be an initial pain to get to, and it will take some time getting through the first one, but usually you walk away with some decent enchantments on-top on swift sneak pretty much immediately off the bat, and the main reason I like this for non-hardcore worlds is to get the echo shards to make a recovery compass early, it can be helpful.

Your voice makes everything seem so relaxed. Totally love the videos. Thanks for all the information buddy!

i played minecraft so long and sometimes it was bored but iam have a survival world now dollowing the steps from this isnt bored and its super lucky that this guy is still and didnt raging thank you!

Perfect timing, i was about to have dinner and procrastinate my uni work 😍

I just beat the ender dragon and got my elytra for the first time on pocket edition few hours ago. I was inspired to try thanks to your guides.

I almost forgot what it was like to play Minecraft like this, like the forward way survival, lets get through the End method. I've done it before but honestly it's been years of mostly occasional games with friends or build projects that I didn't really remember. This is really helpful though, especially to someone who has not played very much for quite a few years. (I started playing around 2013) I was kinda surprised at the comment about the end credit scroll being long, and it is, but maybe it was because I was a kid at the time but I remember being enchanted by it and finding it kind of beautiful and magical. Random thoughts aside, this is a good guide and definitely reminded me and taught me a few new things to remember now that I'm getting back into it, thanks! (I also really enjoyed your way of narration)

been playing for years but havent played any update since 1.16 much because i just like strip mining and having everything spawn on one level. thank you for labeling the chapters for those of us who only needed to know about the new mining system, explained very well.

Love a longer video with tons of info! This will surely be helpful for newcomers

Generally, you should make golden helmets instead of boots, as the amount of armor points you get is on par with iron (as opposed to the boots, where gold is inferior).

And this type of video with full detail I was searching for :⁠-⁠)

I remember watching this guide a year ago when I first started playing Minecraft and it helped me so much and now I can speed run Minecraft is 43 minutes thanks a lot!

Idk why these guide videos are so entertaining. Played for years and don’t necessarily require this, but very entertaining and still learning stuff. Great video!

Actually I already know everything from your video but watching yours stays enjoyable, you’re one of the best RU-vidrs

bro i did NOT notice how its 1 hour long. I LOVED IT! every single part! Just Incredible! I hasnt subcribed till this video.

You are the go to guy for Minecraft I stopped playing for years and came back as an adult and have learned alot thanks

You sound like Napoleon dynamites brother

This the best Minecraft tutorial on entire RU-vid

As someone who just begun playing on a server with my friends this is really helpfull even though i already have all the steps until the nether fortress

dude this video actually motivated me and helped me beat the dragon!! you just earned a new sub btw

Wow, I‘m so impressed! I’ve been playing Minecraft alot like 10 years ago in the Alpha/Beta days, long before even things like the End cities existed, but then I stopped playing years ago and like 2 months ago I kinda got back into it - it’s amazing how extensive and full of content Minecraft became compared to the old days. I got so overwhelmed with all the new content that I had to watch/read tons of guides about everything in the game - And this guide is amazing! Thank you so much! Gotta love Minecraft forever 🙌🏼

Couldn't find this on your channel last night, great timing

You deserve a new subscriber! with this montage and an HOUR of nonboring content, man you just too cool 👍

I haven't sat down and played for an extended period of time for a while, this was a very good refresh.

I literally know every single one of the tips but still the video was very good and I enjoyed it too .......... keep posting this good content :)

This is really helpful for new players !!

Just got a spawn right next to a ruined portal. Very excited. And theres all these islands I plan to make bridges for and have different builds on each.Have had a survival world with a friend for 3 years, but decided it was time to have my own. Thanks for this, didn’t know the best method to tackle this new update.

Haven't played Minecraft since early beta. Coming back to play with my godson. Crazy how much stuff they have added to this game over the years. Great video! Well presented and all very useful info. Much appreciated.

saw the notification and instantly committed an hour to this lol

Eyecraftmc thank you I just started a server but I’m spending some time looking for a seed so this video is perfect ty

This is such a good video I play with a few mods in my game that makes it a bit more enjoyable for me and this still helps with any basics I don't know yet thanks!

I always take soooo long to even get to the nether, thank you for this streamline process 😁👍🏽

I wish I could get this as a print out so I could follow along while playing. I love step by step guides.

Thank you for this video, I haven't played since 1.07 and I'm finally back to playing. There's been so many changes it was really difficult to understand the new progression, terrain and everything else.

Feels like I have watched a 10 part survival minecraft series, but smooshed into one video. That's amazing!

I've been looking for this video for like an hour now. This is hands down the best tutorial on Minecraft period. I hope channel creator reads this you are the best bro.

Thank you sir

I love your informative videos

I'm new to playing minecraft (loved watching minecraft videos for years but never once played it) and I'm so scared of going into the caves, never mind beating the dragon! But this video made it seem so do-able. I might give it a try after watching this! Thanks so much for your help!

Thankyou soo much ,I just downloaded the game yesterday and donno what to do , this helped me a lot and now I've beaten the Minecraft for the first time just now😄

I personally prefer rushing to make an iron farm and villagers with good trades, both of which can be made fairly easily early game (tho may not be very efficient at first) But once you have those 2 things, you don't have to worry about food, mining for diamonds, or obtaining certain blocks since they can be purchased through villagers. It's also a really good source for xp

I love your channel so muchhhh

I'm getting sober and haven't played Minecraft since I was a late teen. I have logged in here and there to keep the app updated on my playstation, but I haven't actually played in years. This video was a really helpful guide for me.

This helps so much regardless of wether or not you’re on laptop or mobile, it’s also such a smart idea to include every aspect of the game and tons of foreshadowing which is really important in game progression that most people forget about🎉🎉🎉

This is super helpful dude I can’t thank you enough!!!

Its like a survival lets play condensed into one video for our short attention spans! Great! Though I do miss the old format of lets plays, it felt more like watching a show with seasons, rather than some "content" on YT. Regardless, thanks for the video!

Keeping me entertained during a whole hour, only EyecraftMC is able to do that, best RU-vidr by far

It’s so crazy how Minecraft has changed so much over the past 10 years. Things looked so much more simple compared to now or is it the other way around? Camels? Bees? Caves look more realistic! Underground dungeons with scary beasts that kill you?! I wonder if this is how my parents feel about the technology my generation uses. (I’m 18 and haven’t played MC much for over 4 years.)

This is so well made. I was so immersed in the video that i didnt realise that the video was an hour long

twelve and a half years ago, i played minecraft for the first time. and my friend, the guy who had told me about the game and convinced me to buy it, sat next to me and, little by little, taught me how to play the game. this video feels like that--friendly, informative, but not overwhelming you with information or spoilers. excellent video. kudos 💚

In years of playing Minecraft I've never done it to beat the Ender Dragon, but with the help of your videos I'm finding my way! I thank you especially for every single guide you have produced, each of them helped me to get more efficient in the game and become a better player. More one time, thank you very much EyecraftMC

I have been playing this game for easily 7 years and never beat the dragon. This video cleared up a LOT of things for me, so hopefully I can finally accomplish that.

Bro thanks I really love this vid and you were just the one person to help because the others are older versions thanks and I downloaded the vid

A super helpful thing is to keep an Excel spreadsheet or notebook of X,Y, Z coordinates of important objects/locations. That way, If you get lost or stop playing for a few months, you can always come back and find those things easily.

me watching this when i can already do all of this

I feel that the golden helmet is the best golden armor piece to make for entering the nether. Reason being, it is second cheapest next to the boots, and piglins will likely trade iron boots with soul speed once you get there which will be useful if you need to cross a soul sand valley in search of structures. Obviously the pants and chest plate should also remain iron because they provide the most defense, leaving the helmet. Besides, there is no water in the nether, and the helmet’s specific enchantments are very focused on water.

I just felt like i watched Diamond Ranked Minecraft gameplay, thank you so much, i will play the game like this from now on :DD

Out of all the years of playing minecraft I had no clue about the door tip, thank you! I will definitely be using it from now on

Seed

Great video! A final tip from me would be to mark the ships you've looted with some cobbled deepslate or other highly visible stone, makes it easy to spot the ships you've already looted should you ever go back to the end.
