Very nice seed and video. I will have to try it. You didn't say "epic" a single time, and didn't go through every single chest or detail the location of diamond ore in every chunk in a 2000 block radius from spawn. All good things! A nice chill video. Love that shader and texture pack, what are you using?
I like this seed for the close villages, the geography and saddles. Personally, I enjoy discovering "hidden" diamonds on my own and feel that a good loot seed has a ton of exposed diamonds that don't require much digging beyond getting to the initial cave/mineshaft. Cool vid though, good presentation, a lot of work went into it, can tell. Like that shader mod also!
I love love love horror movies and games and the genre in general. The scarier the better. Yet somehow, even with the blockyness, even with the rather mild depictions of violence and horror in this game, minecraft mobs are singularly frightening. Exploring a cave deep deep under ground, within blocks from bedrock, many thousands of blocks from home and minding my own business digging around to expose ore in hopes of finding diamond or at least gold. The suddenly that skittery sound and I look up and there are two baby zombies coming at me. Ack! A little jump scare and creepy chill down the spine lol. I dies in the same cave about 20 minutes later while trying to carefully maneuver/dig some diamond ore out right at a pool of lava. A zombie pushed me in.
The above tips in this thread are good for lessening the fright I think. Minecraft immersion is a mix of discovery and mild horror I think. So breaking that immersion will lessen your fear. Turn off the game music, and mob sounds. Turn on your own music. Have a dog or several with you.
Looks sweet! I am planning on building my own castle in the near future in my world. Will take some screens of my modest current base and post em soon.
