Just want to say this was the 'new' game I enjoyed most in 2025, my Game Of The Year! It just captivated me so much right from the start! My favorite genre is survival crafting, with games like Green Hell, Raft, Don't Starve, Subnautica, Sons of the Forest, Project Zomboid, Stationeers, Valheim, Terraria, The Long Dark, Oxygen Not Included, and Ancestors among my all-tme favs. I always wanted the original Minecraft to be less cartoon-gimmicky, and more survival-crafty. This is it! This is what I imagined it should have been. Thanks to the devs! P.S. I haven't gotten far enough into the game yet to appreciate much of the story or higher tech tiers, looking forward to what awaits.

Thanks!

Hi, new player here: I found some chickens and caught a rooster in a trap near my outpost cave mining base, and I wanted a hen who was nearby, but the timer on my trapped rooster was running low, so I thought I'd drop off my rooster friend in my cave for a day while I got the other chicken. So I put him in a room with a torch and fence gate, also behind a crude door, and went away. When I came back, my torch was still lit but he had despawned, leaving no corpse! I didn't want my animals despawning again, so I looked up how to use debug commands to check if I had a "room" to stop despawn, so long as i had a torch nearby. And I learned also that solid blocks or better doors were needed. But shouldn't there be more visible feedback for such an important mechanic?
