Episode 57: Taking aim with the Combat Test

In this episode, DuDs and Jimbo discuss Release Candidate 1 for Minecraft 1.16.2, which make some small changes including Crimson and Warped Roots no longer requiring shears to be mined and the resource and data packs version has been raised to 6. Plus, a question from RebelJC about which area of Minecraft gameplay DuDs and Jimbo don't engage with much, and what it would take for them to be more interested in it. Also, they take a look at the changes in Version 6 of the Combat Test, including changes to shields, axes, bows, projectiles, food and hunger.
