Dying in Minecraft is pretty bad, but dying in the Nether is worse. Not only do you have to trek all the way back from your home base in the Overworld, but you also run the risk of your kit getting burnt up in fire or lava.
在 Minecraft 里死亡已经是件很糟糕的事了，而要是死在下界里，那就更加糟糕了。那不仅意味着你得从你建在主世界的家中一跃而起，然后跋山涉火地回到死亡点，同时还得随时谨防你的装备在熔岩或是火里又泡了汤。

We can’t do much about the latter, but in the Nether update we’re trying to make the former a little less frustrating by adding a way to set your spawn point in the Nether. And it requires our block of the week – crying obsidian.
装备损毁的风险貌似很难避免，但在「下界更新」里，我们就试着让长途跋涉变得不再那么令人沮丧，于是我们新增了一种能让你在下界设置重生点的方法，其依靠的正是我们本周要介绍的方块 —— 哭泣的黑曜石。

Crying obsidian can be acquired from a ruined portal – an ancient structure, found in both the Nether and the Overworld, that once allowed transport between the two, but has succumbed to the ravages of time. We added these structures to give new players, who might not know about the Nether, a hint that there was somewhere else to visit. Java Developer Brandon Pearce explains:
哭泣的黑曜石会出现在「废弃的传送门」处 —— 一类遗迹结构，生成于下界和主世界，它曾是沟通两个世界的桥梁，但最终抵不过时间的冲刷，已然损毁。我们新增这些结构的用意就是给那些大概还不知道下界的新玩家们一个提示，告诉他们曾经这里也许能够到达另外的某个地方。Java 版开发人员布兰登·皮尔斯(Brandon Pearce)这么解释道：

Initially, ruined portals were actually half destroyed and toppled over, but from an onboarding perspective I wanted to change it so they retained their shape to teach players what a portal looked like. Cracked obsidian was the ideal solution - retains the portal shape, but makes some of it cracked for players to 'repair'.
最初我们设计的「废弃的传送门」呈半损毁状，并且是倾倒在地的，但从让新手入门的角度来看，我决定做些调整，令其仍然保持传送门原有的形状来告诉玩家们传送门应该是长什么样的。「损毁的黑曜石」就是个理想的解决方案 —— 既保持了传送门的形态，也令其部分损毁让玩家们“有计可施”。

While the respawn anchor was being developed, however, I remembered the classic crying obsidian that never made it in - a block that was meant to set your spawn point. So I thought why not bring these ideas together: cracked obsidian became crying obsidian, and it can be used to craft the respawn anchor. Win win!
但重生锚被开发出来时，我就想起了曾经的「哭泣的黑曜石」—— 用来设置重生点却最终遭到废弃。所以我就想着干嘛不把两个想法结合一下呢 —— 所以「损毁的黑曜石」就变成了「哭泣的黑曜石」，它同时也能用来合成重生锚了。一举两得！

If you’re a Minecraft super-fan, then you might recognise what Brandon’s talking about. Crying obsidian was added to Minecraft’s texture library by Jeb in Beta version 1.3. The idea was that it would be a way of setting a respawn point, but then we added beds instead, and crying obsidian was removed again in Beta version 1.5.
如果你是一位 Minecraft 的狂热粉丝的话，那么你大概就能明白布兰登指的是什么了。在游戏 Beta 1.3 版本中，Jeb将「哭泣的黑曜石」的材质加入了游戏材质文件中。原本的想法是，用「哭泣的黑曜石」来设置游戏的重生点，但后来我们加入了「床」，因此「哭泣的黑曜石」就在 Beta 1.5 版本中被移除了。

As well as acquiring crying obsidian from portals, you can also barter with piglins and find it in chests in bastion remnants. But the developers played with other ideas too:
除了「废弃的传送门」外，你还能通过与猪灵「以物易物」或是搜寻「堡垒遗迹」里面的战利品箱来获得「哭泣的黑曜石」。但开发者们还有些别的想法：

Initially we thought it would be interesting to create crying obsidian by either throwing normal obsidian through a portal, or normal obsidian being struck by lightning. Later in development, however, we wanted to make it so Piglin bartering was useful, so we made sure that you could only obtain it through bartering or stumbling upon a ruined portal.一开始我们觉得像将普通黑曜石丢进传送门或是让闪电击中普通黑曜石来获得「哭泣的黑曜石」这样的方式挺有意思的，但在随后的开发工作中，由于我们想让猪灵的「以物易物」变得更加有用，所以我们让你们只能通过「以物易物」和「废弃的传送门」两种方式来获得「哭泣的黑曜石」。

There was a prototype made where crying obsidian would randomly teleport around if you ignited it with fire. In the end though, we felt this didn't add any real functionality to the block, so we decided to scrap the idea.
一开始我们还设计了“当你点燃「哭泣的黑曜石」时，它就会随机传送到周围任意位置”的特性，但最终考虑到这个特性貌似没有给这个方块增添任何实际性的功能，所以就废弃了。

So next time you’re gallivanting through the Overworld, keep an eye out for ancient portals – and if you find one then be sure to harvest its crying obsidian. Otherwise it won’t be the obsidian that’s crying the next time you die in the Nether. It’ll be you.
所以下次你在主世界里驰骋的时候，记得留心沿途可能出现的古代传送门 —— 如果找到的话，一定要记得去收取「哭泣的黑曜石」。否则下次你死在下界的话，哭泣的就不是黑曜石，而是你了。

所以说哭泣的黑曜石在极限生存下除了装饰没别的用处对吧？
哭泣的黑曜石：嘤嘤嘤

废弃传送门经过时间的冲刷?（我觉得应该是被水的冲刷，因为有一次我在基岩版中遇到了在一个水坑下的废弃传送门。）

第一次。怎么回复

有多了一个装饰方块，建筑大佬又要疯狂了

哈哈，这样子就可以了

好像手机版不行吧

no copy thx!

这哭泣黑曜石有什么用?

制作重生锚

这个建筑方块真的可以哦

看到这个就想起来B站的十年老玩家（

服务器合成那些奇怪的东西都要哭泣的黑曜石 好难找

这个方块的加入类似于讲台，是一个曾经被官方弃置后来又被重新实现的想法
虽然但是“把一个‘哭泣的黑曜石’作为重生点”这种脑洞到底是怎么想出来的啊（
