Here is the fifth version of the combat mechanics tests. The snapshot is based on the 1.15.2 pre-release, but is - as always - not compatible with the main game.

This snapshot contains some rather impactful changes. The reason is that I'm trying to pinpoint the problems of 1.9 PvP while making sure PvE still feels enjoyable. There have been two major - though slightly contradictory - points of feedback.

First, armor is too weak and barely matter. In particular low quality armor. Secondly, 1.9's food regeneration encourages defensive and evasive gameplay. The first problem makes fights too quick, and the second problem makes them drag out and feel boring.

@ExploitingCree1 We want to bring the games to parity. We are exploring what the combat system should be in the combat test snapshots.

Obeylings 1.1

@FrostCraft_10 We are looking into alternative control schemes for touch, if that is what you mean

@Gamester1232 It took a nose dive when we started working from home. It's still an ongoing topic though so I'll try to get it started again

And a shoutout to @petzett and Wanderword for releasing the audio roleplaying game Cursed Painting!

The Cursed Painting - Wanderword

Thank you all for the great Nether feedback! It's very helpful when looking into fine tuning things
