      General recommendation for survival:
      Use easily accessible blocks.
      Best case is that they're afk-farmable like Prismarine, stone, basalt, wood and so on.
      concrete, terracotta, sandstone, glass and so on are a popular choice but add a massive amount of time in farming resources

    That thing about "Don't think about the name of the block, just think about its color and texture" is amazing advice for me. That's my main problem with building. For example: I would never use grey wool as stone, because it doesn't make sense. But you helped change that.

      Having visited Mont Saint-Michel, I can confirm that it is every bit as impressive, mega, and absolutely breathtaking as you could imagine. It's like the Disney castle, but cooler and actually exists in real life. The tides at the castle are some of the most extreme in the world, which actually results in the castle becoming an island at high tide, but not low tide. At low tide, you can walk across the mudflats from the mainland to the castle, but at high tide the only way there is a boat (ignoring the modern bridge that's been built for tourists). They say that when the tide comes in, it's faster than a galloping horse. There are stories of soldiers that found themselves out on the mudflats right as the tide started to come in who were unable to outrun the water, and drowned.

    @Oh-Ho-Hello Рік тому +4

    I know its been a long while, but heres som advice for anyone (like me) who struggle w motivation
    1 set timers/pressures. This can range from an actual timer, a friend/friends to keep company and accountable, or even something as simple as self imposed pressures. do note if these pressures begin to seriously stress you, you should step away and take a break. Its a block game thats meant to be fun and relaxing, not a secondary job meant to burn you out.
    2 set mini-goals for your build. Using an example from my own current project of a megabase dragon roost, I didn't build it all at once. I started with just the center piece, then pathways, then the larger details before anything massive. Setting more smaller goals makes the actual process of building much more manageable and digestible. Realistic and smaller goals are always the way to go.
    3 Prepare to cope with uncertainty/build anxiety. Its entirely normal to feel anxious and uncertain while building, but many people can feel too anxious and indecisive to continue. If this occurs, it's important to take a break, step back, and relax. You should not force yourself if you aren't enjoying it. To help with uncertainty, it can help to draw it out, plan with others, and even create a duplicate creative world to plan ahead of time. Uncertainty is normal, but not invincible. Take time for yourself, plan ahead, and go in again. Its normal to be anxious, and tearing it down is normal and part of the process.
    tldr: dont force yourself, set manageable goals, create pressures, and plan ahead

    Having visited Mont Saint-Michel, I can confirm that it is every bit as impressive, mega, and absolutely breathtaking as you could imagine. It's like the Disney castle, but cooler and actually exists in real life. The tides at the castle are some of the most extreme in the world, which actually results in the castle becoming an island at high tide, but not low tide. At low tide, you can walk across the mudflats from the mainland to the castle, but at high tide the only way there is a boat (ignoring the modern bridge that's been built for tourists). They say that when the tide comes in, it's faster than a galloping horse. There are stories of soldiers that found themselves out on the mudflats right as the tide started to come in who were unable to outrun the water, and drowned.

      I like the jokes about the back of the mansion in hermitcraft, but this actually isn't a bad idea for a video. The back of a mansion doesn't typically have as many shapes jutting out of it to break it up as the front does, so how does one go about detailing something like that without it ending up as a noticeably repeating series of windows? If you decide to break it up more by adding a back door that leads to a garden or courtyard or other such outdoor space, how do you keep the back side distinctly feeling like a back side and not just a second front side? The front of a build usually benefits from being naturally broken up by a front door, but the back side of a build has no such advantage. ....Maybe it could be less "how to build the back of a mansion" and more "how to detail the back of a build". ....I actually kinda want this video now.

    The advice here actually applies really well to smaller projects. The over-arching theme seems to be Start at the Macro Scale, then work smaller and smaller to add detail. Rather then trying to act like a build printer and crank it out at full detail from the start
