Last week in class we did a obstacle course in class. The general thoughts were that it got a 3/5 or lower. Some of the main problems are as follows: First the main part of the map was parkour, which is punishing for new players. Next, people would take everything out of a chest even if there are 2 distinct sets of items. Then, The was the fact that the map was unfinished. There were walls you could jump over to get out of the map. Also, in ne part of the map there was a area that was impassable if you don't know the double wall jump glitch(break onto a block, jump n that block for the fraction of a second before it came back due to protections then hold forward and jump again) Lastly and most importantly there was nothing to learn from the map(other than a few minecraft mechanics). For experienced players it was an interesting challenge, but for new players it was hard or just plain impossible and many simply gave up. I personally enjoyed the challenge but I think that the class as a whole did not. it was an interesting concept but not executed well.
