Keep Inventory (Bedrock Preview)

Pinned

We’re trying out some changes in our difficulty levels and need your feedback!


In the latest Bedrock Preview we are trying to differentiate each game mode more clearly to enhance the experience for players who prefer lower difficulty levels. This means that we’re experimenting with the ever-debated setting: Keep Inventory!

 

  • Inventory: If you die while playing on Easy or Peaceful in this Preview you will keep your inventory when respawning.

  • Enchantment Level: In this version you will also keep your enchantment levels when you die.

  • Achievements: Keep Inventory is not longer considered a cheat for players on the easier difficulty levels, so achievements will still be active.


We’d love to hear your thoughts on this! Let us know in the comments — what do you think?

    I think what most people are missing here is the part of the fun where you die and lose your stuff and have to start anew. well like all failures you must learn from it and it gives you a chance to learn and to try new and different stuff to survive, if you don't want to lose your stuff you can turn on keepinventory but to do it you have to disable achievements cause otherwise achievements would be devalued and they'd be too easy to get and less of an achievement and more of a "oh you've done that, well cool i guess" the point of achievements is to show you've done something not everyone may be able to accomplish and to show it off as a testament of true skill. Keepinventory should remain toggleable but remain not as a cheat but it should still disable achievements otherwise achievements won't be achievements anymore. the point of achievements is they're hard to earn (IE: "when did we get here", "beaconater", "the beginning", and "the end") so not everyone may have them. (Thank you for taking the time to read this. This is just the opinion of someone who's played Minecraft my whole life and I'm obsessed with the game)

    Please make it possible to Keep Inventory and earn achievements! For younger players, especially, this would be huge. Whether it's accomplished through difficulty modes or a separate setting doesn't matter to me at all, just so long as the option exists in some form.

    it's fine to keep them all separate but we have
    hardcore preset so why not softcore a new default setting with all those gamerules preset just like hardcore you can't change it after making the world so it could be a special world that has achievements enabled but everyone would know it's a softcore world like how hardcore proves it's legit but for a casual mode

    keep inventory on
    peaceful or easy on
    mob griefing off
    fire spread off
    and maybe other features like peaceful hostile Mobs that exist but don't attack anything

    It should be different in each mode and should be togglable

    Peaceful:full keep inventory

    Easy:you keep your stuff but lose half your xp

    Normal:You lose your stuff and 75% of your xp and your stuff despawns in the default 5 mins

    Hard:You lose your stuff and all of your xp and your stuff despawns in 2m 30s

    I think it would be amazing for Keep Inventory not to be a cheat anymore in some Game Modes.
    Specifically if it's stays as a toggle option & not a default setting.

    1.
    Peaceful Mode is one I feel it definitely should be available in without cheats.

    The reason I think so is fairly simple; Peaceful is— as far as I'm aware —impossible to beat without switching to Easy or Hard Mode to gather materials first.

    However, players looking for a calmer way to play, often prefer Peaceful Mode. Like myself.

    That being the case, I feel like making Keep Inventory compatible with Achievement in Peaceful is something that Peaceful players would enjoy immensely without it negatively impacting anything.

    2.
    Easy Mode.
    When a player that prefers Peaceful Mode does want to beat the game, we probably pick Easy Mode.
    And Keep Inventory is a feature I feel is entirely fitting for Easy Mode.

    So while I have far fewer arguments why Keep Inventory should be legal in this Game Mode, outside of Peaceful Mode, I think this is the only other reasonable option to add it too as a non-cheat toggle.

    In conclusion; I feel like adding it to Normal, Hard or Hardcore would have a negative response from too many players who prefer more difficult gameplay.
    While I believe those same players would be more accepting of it if it were only added to Peaceful or Peaceful & Easy Modes.
