A minecraft seed that has something deeply wrong with it.
This seed deserves special mention for having (at least) 13 ancient cities within 1,500 blocks of spawn. This is one of those seeds where they're more common than villages.
Right near spawn it becomes apparent that something is...not right about the mountains
Tumblr media
at least, when you are confronted with THIS motherfucker unlimited. Note the level of the clouds.
For the uninitiated, terrain can only generate below y level 256. That flat plateau? Is at y=255.
Mountains are supposed to taper into peaks in Minecraft. This mountain looks like it was just chopped off at the height limit.
Tumblr media
This whole seed is full of some truly dramatic mountains. This beautiful mountain range, for instance.
I checked out the seed on Chunkbase and found another area where the altitude seemed unexpectedly high, and traveled out there:

This range of stony mountains is by far the most dramatic terrain I have ever found. Like the mountain near spawn, these mountains also have weird flat plateau-like areas at y=254 or so, as if they were suddenly chopped off at the top.
It's almost like the game tried to create a much, much higher mountain, but was stopped by the height limit for terrain generation.
That's weird enough, but it doesn't really get creepy until you go underground.
Tumblr media
This is underneath the mountains near spawn. That sculk growth is an expected thing to find under mountains, where the Deep Dark biome generates...but something's off here.
The Deep Dark biome is supposed to generate below y level 0, waaaaay way deep underground. But this sculk is all the way up at y=106.
That's not only over 100 blocks higher up than it's supposed to be, it's above the normal level of the ground! The surface in low lying areas in Minecraft tends to be around y=65-80!
Tumblr media
The same weird thing is happening underneath the stony mountain range. The sculk growth has climbed far above sea level, when it's not supposed to do that.
Weird...

i so deeply enjoy the idea of the sniffer. a long-forgotten animal, preserved only by its eggs left in forgotten structures. you can bring them back. you can raise them, and in return, they will bring you seeds and plants and things you had no idea existed. this forgotten creature who mimicks grass blocks because of the plants that grow on it and with it. i dunno i love this little thing,,,

I recreated the Dungeons Illager font bc the one website that has it broke on me, noticed some interesting similarities between it and the enchantment language. It also has links to the latin alphabet like O and Q, V and W being similar (which, look I know it's just bc the writers are latin alphabet users but it can be used for worldbuilding)
You can have both of them here, along with bordered versions of both, and a font based on the Mojang logo. Mind you, they’re rather bare-bone
Based on this post by u/Luxing23 and this one by u/Athesiel (hi Lillie!)

Minecraft Piglins fuck me up. Like, they’re one of two/three seemingly sentient species, but there’s clearly something wrong with them.
They’ve got bastions throughout the nether, huge buildings that at one point were clearly lovingly constructed. Not only were these buildings functional (apartment complexes, hoglin stables), but they created art. Not just carvings, but music. Not even villagers have created music discs, only piglins. Piglins also had access to the overworld at some point, they have a number of items (carrots, water bottles, string, iron) that could only have been obtained from the Overworld.
But… something happened. At some point in the past, something happened, and Piglins lost the ability to maintain their buildings. The buildings fell into ruins, and even though the Piglins stayed with the ruins, they couldn’t salvage them. They just wander the broken hallways.
What happened? Well, we don’t know for sure. But… Piglins are afraid of Zombie Piglins. Even though Zombie Piglins won’t attack them, Piglins still try to get away from them. Despite this, Zombie Piglins don’t appear infectious. Piglins don’t even turn into them when they die. Instead, Piglins turn into Zombies when exposed to the Overworld. The Overworld infects them, and unlike Zombie Villagers, there is no cure.
It can’t have always been this way, Piglins would’ve needed to be able to access the Overworld at some point to get materials. But something went wrong. And here you are, exploring the ruins of a society and left wondering what happened. Or maybe more importantly, are you next?

The deep dark looks so, so good.
For those who missed Minecraft live, they revealed a new part of the deep dark, the "deep dark cities", these sprawling underground structures, with lots of stone brick, sculk, candles, etc.
There's a new block called the "Sculk shrieker", that shrieks loudly when it detects you near it. It also will apply the "Darkness" effect when you get near, causing the environment to pulse with darkness.
Another new block that was revealed is the "Sculk Catalyst", a block which causes the sculk to spread- if a mob dies near a sculk catalyst, it will cause more sculk to grow, and the exp dropped by the mob determines how much it grows. It also stores some exp inside of it.
Also, they showed off more about the Warden-
The Warden spawns by literally emerging from the sculk on the floor, once you've made too much noise, or if you activate the Sculk shriekers too many times. It was also revealed that, even if you are silent, if the Warden approaches you, it can begin to smell you out.
It literally smells your fear.
It's so terrifying in the best way possible, I am SO EXCITED for 1.19
