You never know if a Creeper is gonna blow up in your face or a Skeleton is gonna shoot you as soon as you turn the corner in these caves...
The first problem is the dark-ass picture. Not even with all my will could I see what the image is depicting, and I've played the game long enough to recognize dark figures. The second problem is the caption; it's supposed to represent the nightmarish ambient noises the game plays when you're in the middle of a dark cave, but just the same that extended word could be gibberish to anyone who's not played the game.

I propose a brighter version of the pic and a more clear caption. If I remember correctly, pic upgrades might be a free pass, but not caption changes.

Opening.

Do you have a source for a brighter image?

Much better.

(Just for reference, next time, put the suggestion in the Opening Post.)

...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.

I... did put my suggestion in the OP. It's a brighter version of the one in the Minecraft page [lol]

My apologies. The one in the OP was still very dark, and I didn't click through to the actual page. sad

I think the one in 3 is the best , though.

...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.

I think the first suggestion works better, although being reasonably experienced with the game, I kinda think it doesn't really illustrate the trope anyway. But for those suggestions, the second one (3) is a little too bright, which makes it more obvious that there really isn't anything there. The scary part comes from not being able to see clearly if there are enemies, and the first suggestion works better for that.

I haven't played it. In the first suggestion, I can't see anything except the foreground. In the second, I can see lots of corners and that there are a lot of spots where I can't see, hence it's worrisome on a different level.

But since I haven't played, I will merely state that either one is miles better than the current, to me.

...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.

I also prefer the former pic for the reasons stated by AnotherDuck. I'm also thinking that maybe it would make more sense to pothole "You never know" to Nothing Is Scarier instead of the image, though; it's not like the pic is taken from Nothing Is Scarier: The Videogame.

Any more votes for OP brightness and caption?

I've made the change as a quality swap; locking up.
