I finally beat the ender dragon!

I suppose this is a little follow-up from my previous post? Thank you guys for your answers! I've decided to buy the Standard deal rather than the Deluxe one, and I don't think I regret the decision!

I'm truly thankful for all the responses I got from my inquiry. They're full of super informative responses, and so many people were very kind to me. I really love the vibe here, it's super nice!

I died 17 times in total, definitely not my proudest work (xD). The game is definitely much harder than I thought. Even the overworld common monsters are a threat regardless of the stage of the game I was in, heck, everyone dealt an egregious amount of damage. Above all, though, Skeletons are definitely my most dreaded enemy. The number of times I've died to Skeletons are beyond me at this point. They're unbeatable without shields!

Regardless, I had a blast playing Minecraft. Now I know why it is among, if not the most played video games of all time. Thank you all once more!
