"That farm is gonna be crazy fast": Minecraft player mines two million blocks to create a mob farm

Minecraft players often do crazy things that are bound to impress everyone. The dedication, patience, and conviction it requires to continue doing things in the game is commendable. A Minecraft player and Reddit user by the name of Papaya314 shared a picture that blew everyone’s mind. The picture shows the player building a mob farm in the nether, but the impressive part is that they mined two million netherrack to make the farm.

This impressive post garnered a lot of attention and a ton of replies. User u/BLUFALCON77 commented that the original poster is way more dedicated than they are. This is true as mining two million blocks of anything in the game takes a lot of time and dedication.

It must be noted that the original poster also mentioned they did not use TNT blocks to block up the areas and gather the netherrack blocks. The gameplay was single-player survival, so everything was done with a lot of patience and dedication.

Another user, u/LingonberryRich6382, commented that they could never have the patience to do such a thing. But not all comments were just about that.

Reddit user KhoDis asked how the original poster motivated themself to do such a thing without feeling the guilt of spending so much time in Minecraft. To this, u/Papaya314 replied they only play the game in their free time and they do it while doing other things such as listening to podcasts and audiobooks.

Another Redditor, u/natgibounet, commented that they rage quit the moment they fall into lava while strip mining. The original poster then replied that it is better to have a potion on the hot bar and totems in case they fall into lava.

Minecraft nether farm

For those wondering, a large amount of netherrack will be used to make a large mob farm in the nether. This farm will spawn various mobs that the player can kill and get XP and other items from. Mob farms or XP farms take a lot of materials to build and require some serious dedication.

This is not the only impressive thing in the game. A Minecraft player recently built a fully working Minesweeper game inside the game.
