I just have to get it out of my system, this version of the game sucks. Even worse than Ye Olden Days Pocket Edition with its "blue rose", this one is a very sucky port of the Legacy Console editions mostly in the technical part. This game does not run well in the console and it shows for the most part, like yeah it's playable at the cost of a headache from the low framerates.

The world is now a mere 1000 blocks in both axes, suffers from constant frame drops and it has a render distance of like 30 blocks, more than that and everything around you just ceases to exist, and the enemy spawn rates for this one are really damn low just because of the render distance not being able to handle it, making some trophies really hard to get, for example one that's called Sniper Duel which is having to kill a Skeleton from 50 blocks away.

Problem is, due to the limitations of the system everything that's just off those 30 or so blocks of distance just disappears from the view entirely, so you're practically just fighting ghosts at that point. Redstone isn't even able to work properly due to it just stopping at some point that isn't rendered, and this is mostly why this game just sucks and is willing to give you a hard time to get all its trophies, for the game itself then it's just Minecraft (and the Legacy Console version too up to Update Aquatic) and that's fine, if you're looking for normal gameplay then it's alright, but I would suggest looking for a Switch or something, even the phone version would run better.

But I'm probably just mad I sunk in 48 hours into this just for a platinum, gotta thank the Tutorial world though, it has everything you need.
