My Shitty Game Server - Minecraft (again!)

My Shitty Game Server - Minecraft (again!)

Can My Shitty Game Server run a Minecraft dedicated server? At least as good as the Pi... Yes. Easily. You don't even need to watch the video.

Nothing too shocking. Mimics what was seen on the Pi. Felt a lot smoother on the PC, especially with the official bedrock server which can't be run on the Pi. The official bedrock server also doesn't work on Windows 7. So I had to switch to Windows 10 on the mechanical drive. Which worked fine.

See my other videos on Pi servers for more details on setting up a Java edition server.

Noting that game servers sometimes ask for CD keys but rarely, if ever, need them.

See other videos in the series for explanations on things like Steam Command and Hyper-V setup.
