Loved the video @Noxus! Can't wait for the next video man! Glad to see the Deeper and Darker mod get some Time in the Spotlight. It seems like the Main Point is the Armor and Tools as well as Continued caution of the Warden and the Skulk Blocks.

Looks neat and I might give it a try as well!

sick dude im defo going to add this mod to my mod pack

[crow_man]

this mod is really good! hope mojang takes some inspiration when eventually working on the deep dark "portal"

[lunashenck]

NGL, this mod is wasted potential. The entire dimension only seems to exist for the armor set. Literally every mob drop is nothing but an ingredient for the set. And the set doesn't even do anything creative either, it's just netherite armor with better stats. Of course, you could say the same about the end only existing to house the dragon and elytra, but its not like people praise the end. I dont understand the praise this mod gets

[Thermonuclearwarhead]

these videos are great relaxing and informative keep up the good work hope you reach 100k

The fact that the stalker has such a low chance of spawning is absolutely the worst part of this mod. I understand it's still in active development but for the love of God, I shouldn't have to run around for 3 hours to find a temple and NOT get at least a single crystal.

I feel like there was more room for creativity here in this mod. It's not the greatest but it's definitely interesting and, as you said, expands on existing parts of gameplay.

First is the trees, I think the biome is beautiful and it's cool how it's a safer biome but not completely safe, it's like the Other Side's own Warped Forest... which is the problem. It's _too_ much like the Warped Forest. Look at the trees, they have glowing blocks just like Shroomlights and the biome is safer than any other in the dimension. For a cave biome named "The Deep Dark" I would expect a dimension where the stuff originates to not have any natural light at all, to be honest.

Though this dimension seems to build off of Matpat's theory about the Warden and by extension the Sculk, it does a pretty good job of it. From just a surface-level analysis based off of his theory, I would guess the Shattered are the ancient builder race who died there and whose corpses became hosts for Sculk. The temples seem to be last-ditch attempts at escape as well. I think this mod could benefit from a boss mob as well, though the Warden and Stalker seem to do the job well enough.

It's a great mod and it adds some expansion to many questions people have about the Deep Dark, Sculk and the Ancient Cities overall, though I can't help but want a little more.

And the Sculk Transmitter, one of the most "useful" items, stops working after moving a negligible amount of blocks away because it can't open unloaded chests.

What shaders do you use they look great!

[cousinsrock]

I always wonder how you show stills of you carrying weapons whilst posing. Is that a part of the armor statues?
Also, great video! Quality never falls.

[stylesclash]

It's been like 3 ancient cities with no vases. I've yet to find some

[Iseenotix]

For a dimension that requires you to kill a warden its incredibly underwhelming and the loot from the structure is honestly garbage. Only highlights are the design of the armor, and elytra variant. The dimension itself felt like a slog, and after i got the crystal needed for the wings i was so glad glad id never have to go back. This mod needs a massive overhaul tbh.

[AdrlOink]

Mid and over rated. The armor is boring and the elytra is kind of a lame upgrade. The mobs don't do anything useful and neither does the majority of each biome. Definitely needs updated before I'm even going to consider using it.

[haxorzleet]

I destroyed like 30 vases and nothing no stalkers

[jijipiou-jiji]

It looks insane and all, but why can i not equipped the new elytras? They just don't want to go on

[plantsoup]

how do you activate the portal in the ancient temple? I cant get it to work

[АлексВайт-ий]

HOW THE FUCK CAN I FIND THAT TEMPLATE?? 20 ANCIENT TEMPLES I FARMED AND FIND NO ONE. NICE FABRIC

[juleslab]

Wasn't the elytra able to randomly accelerate the player while flying in other versions ?

[OhSherrie]

I'm early! This mod looks so cool

[toxiczone]

Wait.. to get the helmet in order to sneak around the deep dark is to kill the warden?? Isn't the point of having the desire of the hat, to have it before you get into the deep dark? Plus if your not planning on using wacky tactics to kill the warden and you just found the deep dark in your world, you wouldn't be able to defeat the warden... The warden is really difficult!
