Some of us like to build though.

See, many people say graphics are less important than gameplay. Which is true, especially with Minecraft.

But a good looking base makes the gameplay that much more enjoyable.

I’ve known plenty who just throw all their machines and farms out in a field. And it works, it just doesn’t look great. With a bit of TLC, they could have an awesome base. But it seems like they want to speedrun Minecraft and be done with it.

Last base I build was a Solarpunk Utopia city in a giant dome to keep out the rain. It was a perfect dome made with geometry and the create mod so I didn’t have to build it myself. Radius of 128 blocks.

It’s either an underground cave or a castle

The modern minecraft mountain generation is so good. I love finding a nice mountain and start hollowing it out. My latest word i found an island with a trial chamber underneath it. A decent sized cave system and a natural cove for me to build farms around.

It’s been ages since I’ve played Minecraft, but my favorite and most frustrating base was one of those guardian temples in the ocean. The kicker was that it was a fresh server, and my buddy and I tackled that as our starter base. No armor, stone tools… Just a few stacks of sand and some doors to drain it, and lots - LOTS - of dying.

When we finally got that thing drained and hollowed out… so satisfying!

“I am a dwarf and I’m digging a hole!”

A small wooden hut with slightly stylised roof, a bed, a firmace and crafting table.

Oh and trap door.

Now, tunnels below may reach multiple hundreds of blocks each way like tendrils…and be more stylised inside tha n the hut…

Solo, or multiplayer with friends - has to be the biggest gnarliest thing you can possibly make.

Online, or multiplayer with “friends” - dig a hole, cover roof, go for a nice cup of tea and wait for morning.

Man, makes me remember the days of building TnT cannons and playing Mafia online. Good ole days XD

Dirt hut that gets half-assed upgraded to wood, then stone if I’m feeling fancy.

I’ve never been great at design :’)
