Ok inventor John i agree to most of your points.
About the livemap…i personally would prefer to be forced to map the area so some tradeports for rare materials would be harder to find…but that is my opinion and you have yours and we will see what gods wants to do about livemap.
The enderpearls…i know what you mean now.
I still cling to my opinion though, enderpearls are a part of the game and should not be deleted.
And in Reallife there are/were pirates too that used small ships and graplinghooks to capture and loot bigger ships.
And if gods wants to make this world harder than the usual piratemc i think this “magical graplinghook” is exactly what he wants.
