    I always dig straight down. Just don’t have anything valuable on you. But straight down is where the diamonds are.

    This is why Dwarf Fortress is GOAT. Your dwarves start off with mental problems, and they only compound throughout their lives[1] leading to one of them going postal or creating an insane piece of art

    1. the realism is pretty on point… ↩︎

    Just dig two blocks wide. It’s easy to stand so that you can look down and mine blocks under you - three down. Then look slightly up to the other block you’re standing on and mine those three plus three more. Then back down and six, then ahead and six… it’s easy to go down[1] quickly, and then it’s safe. You’re always standing on a safe block.

      unless you are digging at y=-60, the only danger above you is sand/gravel, which can be countered by placing a torch at your feet as you dig up (torches will break any sand/gravel that falls on it)

    I recently reached Volcano Manor in Elden Ring. I thought touching lava would mean instant death, like so much else in the game, but apparently not.

        I just killed that bastard Night’s Guardian on the bridge. I thought it was so random to get Bloodhound’s Step from that asshole. I had tried like 3 different types of damage to kill him “fair”, but the motherfucker seemed to be immune to all (holy, bleed, cold). So I climbed up that crooked tree and sniped him with the Pulley Bow.
