the spawn rate of mobs is way too high. I was barely trying to get iron and there was like 15 mobs not even letting me into the cave!! The game is unplayable with this spawn rate. Yall changed it for the speed runners and grinders but what about casual players?
1. I was looking around for a cave, I already had wood on me so I quickly stopped and made a wooden pickaxe to get some stone to collect Iron that I saw only 10 blocks into the cave. When I first opened the crafting table interface there was only about 3 zombies, when I had closed the interface there was 6 zombies.
2. I grabbed some stone to get a stone pickaxe, at this point only about 2 minutes has passed from when I first got to the cave opening, and there was already more mobs that had spawned. 2 skeletons and 3 creepers. I tried to go into the cave and all the sombies swarmed me. I killed 4 and more mobs kept spawning.
3. There wasn't enough time of me being in the world for that many to spawn. It was a new world, the first night hadn't even passed and I was only 5 minutes into the game. After almost dying several times, I got frusterated and closed the game. It was impossible to play the game normally. I casually play, I've been playing since the game came out, I have never had such a hard time trying to just get iron.
Usually theres only a few mobs, maybe like 2 zombies and a skeleton, but there was way more than expected and it was affecting the quality of the game play.
