It gets upsetting when they die and loses it all in Minecraft. It could be challenging and exciting to do it all again, but a part of them would feel irritated upon losing all their prized possessions, which they worked so hard upon and spent so much time collecting. But as we all know, Minecraft is a gamer’s game and thus they have got a way for you to protect your precious inventory even upon dying in the game.
Inventory consists of all the weapons, tools, and skins you have collected so far in the game, and upon dying you lose it all. It’s the token of your progress, and it’s gone the second you die. As infuriating as it seems for some players, there’s always a backdoor. You can keep your inventory by customizing the game and creating a few useful edits that will let you change the core gameplay.
