Minecraft snowy ruins
Tumblr media
Minecraft is a popular sandbox video game where players can explore, build, and survive in an open world made up of blocks. "Snowy ruins" could refer to a custom-built structure or a generated feature in the snowy biome of the game. If you're looking for ideas or information about snowy ruins in Minecraft, here's a general concept you could use to create your own:
Concept: Abandoned Snowy Fortress Ruins
Imagine a vast snowy biome where, amidst the snowy landscape, you come across the remnants of an ancient fortress. The fortress appears to have been abandoned for centuries, with only its ruins remaining. Here's how you could design this concept:
Location: Choose a snowy biome, such as a Snowy Tundra or Snowy Taiga biome, for your ruins. The cold and desolate environment will add to the eerie atmosphere.
Structures: Create ruined walls, towers, and archways that were once part of a grand fortress. Use various types of stone blocks, cracked stone bricks, and mossy cobblestone to depict the aged and deteriorated nature of the structures.
Icy Elements: Since it's a snowy biome, incorporate icy elements into the ruins. Frozen waterfalls, icicles hanging from ledges, and patches of packed ice could add to the realism.
Treasures and Secrets: Place hidden chambers within the ruins that contain valuable loot or lore items. This encourages players to explore the ruins thoroughly.
Vegetation: Allow patches of snow to accumulate in and around the ruins, and sprinkle some grass blocks and small plants to show the gradual reclamation of the area by nature.
Atmosphere: Use low lighting, like lanterns or dimly lit rooms, to create a mysterious and slightly spooky atmosphere.
History: Create a backstory for the fortress. Perhaps it was a stronghold of an ancient civilization that fell to some calamity. You can leave hints about its history through inscriptions, damaged banners, or deteriorated paintings.
Mob Spawners: To add a sense of danger, place some mob spawners (like zombies or skeletons) within the ruins. This makes the exploration more challenging and exciting.
Frozen Courtyard: At the heart of the ruins, design a frozen courtyard where the remains of a central structure stand. This could be a grand hall or a ceremonial area.
Viewpoints: Include certain points within the ruins where players can get a panoramic view of the snowy landscape. This can serve as both a reward for exploration and a way to showcase your creation.
Remember, in Minecraft dawlond 2024 , creativity knows no bounds. You can adjust and modify this concept to suit your preferences and playstyle. Whether you're building in Creative mode to tell a story or in Survival mode to create a challenging environment, have fun experimenting with your snowy ruins!

Sorry for the shitty quality of these(literal photos because screenshotting minecraft is beyond my understanding) but I’m making the Herz kingdom in Minecraft and I’m having so much fun with it!!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is the throne room! (It is intentionally church-like)
Tumblr media
And a little shot of the courtyard that’s open to the public!
Not bad for a day or so I think? I’ve never done a big project in a game like this and I have NO PLANS! Vibes only!
If you’d like to see more, I’d be happy to share more as I make it!

Weird tip for building in survival Minecraft: Don't build a storage room. In my experience, if I make a big house with a few pretty rooms that do nothing, and a big ugly storage room, I spend all my time in the big ugly storage room because that's where everything useful is and I have no practical reason to go into any of the other rooms. Instead, depending on the scale of your build and how many resources you gather, you can place chests and barrels in decorative ways throughout your base and fill them with items appropriate to the room in some way. For example, a smelting/stonecutting room could include your furnaces, a compact stone generator, and maybe an entrance to your strip mine. In this room though, you can include storage for your stone blocks, metals, and furnace fuel. This system makes sorting your items easier, removes a potentially unappealing room from your plans, and gives you reason to visit all of the pretty rooms you spent hours decorating!

After a considerable amount of time, my fairytale castle is done!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ramble and some neat extras under the cut!
There is no interior (I'd say "yet" but I know myself and it's a miracle I finished this at all) and the veins running through it took over 200 blocks of raw iron! That's just over a chest full of ingots (29 stacks!).
This fact is especially funny because the separated tower actually has an iron farm squeezed into it, which I built first and which generated about 580 iron blocks worth of ingots in the process of finishing the build.
I ended up building it in a very weird way so I could make this "timelapse" which I think ended up having a pretty cool effect but also I am not doing this again.
Tumblr media
I also drew this one! In very much the same style as I drew the wizard tower, both of which I pretty heavily referenced dnd miniatures.
Fun fact! The page I drew this on is absolutely full of madman scribble in the form of trigonometry calculations because replaymod doesn't actually have an easy method to orbit a point (at least not one I can find).

Does anyone have suggestions of minecraft youtubers that build in historical styles that are NOT medieval fucking Europe? Or maps, worlds, tutorials, anything. I would LOVE to see more stuff like this if people have suggestions (especially if theres anyone doing smaller, more detailed, actually inhabited builds).

Honestly, I really want a game where there’s a story, but there’s no dialogue between any characters, and the only way to figure out the story is through things like item descriptions, details in the character design and backgrounds, and leitmotifs in the music
I’m sure games like this already exist, but I still would love to see one.
Or heck, I’d make one myself, only I don’t know how to program a game or what the story’d be

A relatively common trope of fma fanfiction is the modern Amestris au, which is basically your standard modern au for all your slice of life needs except stuff like alchemy and automail still exist, so the author doesn’t have come up with real world equivalents when that’s not really the point of their fic.
This is all fine and dandy, but one thing that’s always bugged me is that most of the time in these fics Al is just like. a normal, not disembodied, fully abled child. There are several issues with this, mainly that this alteration significantly changes the character dynamic between Ed and Al in ways the author often doesn’t account for at all.
This is also a common issue is regular modern aus, but I bring it up in the context of modern Amestris aus because an idea just occurred to me that I don’t think I’ve seen before: since alchemy still exists, why not have Al just straight up still be in the armor? Put that boy in public school and give him the strangest IEP known to man!
Touchscreens don’t recognize his leather fingers so he has a blackberry (which his hands are way too big for so it takes him twice as long to send most messages because he doesn’t like to leave in typos).
He was both pressured into joining and permanently banned from his middle school’s basketball team within the span of a week.
His condition isn’t secret or anything, it was kind of a big deal at the time and it made the news after it happened but after awhile the buzz mostly died down.
They were contacted by one of those medical mysteries documentary shows (a la extraordinary people), and Pinako told them that if they thought she would let an entire camera crew into her house they were fucking insane.
The initial publicity is the only reason the Amestrian government hasn’t kidnapped him or anything, but they do stalk him and the brothers and the Rockbells have definitely noticed.
If Izumi is Ed and Al’s legal guardian they are much more discreet about it because whenever she spots them hiding in the bushes or whatever she starts reciting castle doctrine law “to no one in particular.”
Because the modern world is a bureaucratic panopticon from hell and also CPS exists instead of just going out into the world to find the philosophers stone the Elrics just have to study real hard and try to eventually get into Alchemy MIT I guess.
Al is physically unable to use any kind of headphones because he has no ears.
He and Mei Chang are playing Minecraft right now as we speak.

I was wrong
It takes a lot to admit that, even more for me to admit that about MCD, but I was wrong about something in regards to this series. In a previous post I said that the worst episode of MCD was Season 2 Episode 95, because it was the culmination of the absolute failure that was Laurance's character arc. And I wasn't wrong about that, S2E95 is an objectively bad episode and I stand by it being one of the worst. But it's only one of the worst episodes of this series. Probably second or third worst.
The actual worst episode of Minecraft Diaries happens far earlier in it's run time than I anticipated. The actual episode that begins the degrading of every single main character happens within it's first season. The worst episode of Minecraft Diaries is Season 1 Episode 65, Our Fears.
Tumblr media
For those of you who haven't watched MCD in a minute, or aren't insane like I am and recognize what happens in an episode from just a number and a thumbnail, this is the episode where Aphmau and Dante get chased into Malachi's abandoned castle and fall victim to his uncontrollable magic. A magic that shows people their greatest fears.
Now the concept of a ghost that forces the audience and the characters to come face to face with the leading characters greatest fears is a fantastic idea. I'm serious this is one of the best concepts for character work in the entire Aphverse. This is great, this can go so many good ways.
Aphmau's fear is pretty weak mostly because it shows her house on fire, nobody hurt, and Malachi comments that she's "Scared of losing the ones you love." My honest reaction to this was "She lost her house in episode 36 and didn't seem to care because her loved ones are safe. You wanna communicate that she's scared of people dying just show Zoey lying on the ground or something smh." It gets the job done, but not very well.
Dante's fear is the only one that's well done because it's an image of Gene about to rip apart the realm barrier in the Nether. This works surprisingly well despite only being one shot because it gets across Dante's connection to Gene and the Nether pretty well, setting up for the reveal later on. Dante's existence is this episode's single redeeming quality. And as much as I like the guy, he's not enough to hold up the episode after what happens next.
Now, dear viewer who presumably knows the plot of MCD because you've read this far into a post about this single episode, you know that at this point in the series Garroth has been found out by his brother and has the looming threat of the entire O'Khasis military on his mind all the damn time. Zane has already hurt members of his village in direct ways, and only didn't do more damage because he was called away for an emergency. Garroth has already failed to protect one lord, and he's nearly failed to protect another.
Laurance is a shadow knight. And even though the lore of shadow knights is still flimsy at this point, we know that they are very prone to killing lords, it's why Laurance renounced his position as head guard of Meteli and refuses to return. But that doesn't mean his desire for blood is gone. It just means it has a new target. Like say, the lord he comes to the castle in search of? That he has explicit romantic feelings for?
Again, this idea of forcing the audience and the characters to face their greatest fears is such a good idea, especially with these three, because they can all be interlinked. Aphmau fears losing her loved ones, Garroth fears failing to protect his people, and Laurance fears that he'll give into bloodlust. Are you picking up what I'm putting down? I don't know if I can make it anymore obvious where the show should have gone from here.
But, no, unfortunately Jesson wrote this series. So what could have been one of the best moments of character work in the entire series, instead became the beginning of the end for our would be love interests. I'm of course referring to how it's revealed that their actual "worst fear" is Aphmau getting with... Another guy. Not even her picking one over the other, just her holding hands with and kissing some guy that Garroth and Laurance DON'T EVEN KNOW!
And despite Laurance saying he's happy as long as he has Aphmau in his life, he starts getting enraged that another guy would have the audacity to kiss her. Even though the scene he's shown seems to be entirely consensual. And in response to this, BOTH OF THEM DECIDE TO TRY AND KILL THIS ILLUSION OF DANTE JUST FOR KISSING THE GIRL THEY LIKE!
AND THIS IS SEEN AS A GOOD THING BY THE SHOW!! Attacking this illusion breaks the barrier around the real Aphmau and Dante, and Garroth and Laurance are never punished for their actions here. Aphmau is barely concerned that her guards, the men she's willing to trust with her life, were willing to kill someone for the crime of kissing her. Hot fucking take, Aphmau maybe shouldn't trust these people after seeing that they're willing to kill a man over the crime of loving her when they want to.
And even hotter take, GARROTH AND LAURANCE WOULDN'T DO THIS! Both men have been shown to be highly protective over Aphmau, which makes sense it's literally their job to keep her safe, but that protective nature shouldn't cross over into actively interfering with her romantic life. They're fucking lucky it was just an illusion, what would have happened if Malachi used mind control? What if he was using Aphmau and Dante's bodies as puppets? What if Garroth and Laurance just killed an amateur guard whose only crime was being forced to kiss the girl they liked?
This is one of those writing decisions that truly baffles me. It was RIGHT THERE, HOW DID YOU MISS, IT (the perfect piece of character work) WAS THREE FEET IN FRONT OF YOU! The answer is that Jesson don't really care about the interesting character work, they care about tropes. They care about the main character being in a love triangle with two guys who equally suck but in different ways. They care about fans getting excited and debating over which ship is better. They care about pushing this love triangle onto viewers regardless of what makes sense for the characters involved because the writers fail to see the nuance of the characters that they fucking wrote the nuance of.
I fucking hate Episode 65. Easily the worst episode of MCD. Any episode after this when Garroth and Laurance act horrendously out of character in service of this love triangle (I'm looking at you episode 77, and episode 90, and season 2 episode 95, and season 2 episode 98), know that it started here. It started with episode 65.
Fuck this episode.
