I hope my lack of Minecraft experience doesn't make you cringe too bad! Should I do a video reviewing the most realistic Cities: Skylines cities?
Yes, please.
Yes, I think it would be great.
If you do more Minecraft, you should definitely check out this project! The level of detail is immense: www.realismsociety.com/
I'd like to see you build your own!
Yes! If I do another Minecraft video I'll include this one.

Getting mugged in a parking garage in a Chicago inspired city is surprisingly appropriate.
Greenfield didn't give me a strong Chicago vibe. BTW Chicago is awesome.
City Beautiful he was commenting on the fact that right before you said that you said some thing gave you a Chicago vibe
@@CityBeautiful Man we're two sides of the coin.
Parts of Chicago and other American cities, if they were their own detached nations, would have literally the highest murder rates in the world, and they're just a few blocks away from some of the safest streets in the world. It's an insane dichotomy, and your opinion of a city like Chicago is entirely dependent on whether or not you're hanging around in the places that are as violent as mankind can really be.
It's a nightmare, and these places are human meat grinders nestled up against bustling, modern, lively urban areas that are very comfortable.
I can't stand cities because of this. Often not more than a few blocks away from being mugged. I'm never happier than when I'm as far from other people as possible.
But I gotta say, the passion in the video was really endearing. It's fun to watch someone talk about things they enjoy and are really into. Someone's gotta do it and you enjoy it a lot, which is always wonderful to see.
That's quite interesting piece of knowledge mister Skogi B.

What!!!??? Are you kidding me sir? Do you really think that cities were not a real thing before minecraft was invented? WHAT THE HECK MAN!!!
Even thought it's been a long time since I've played minecraft, I still think it's one of the greatest games ever made. There's simply no other sandbox game like it. As someone who grew up playing with legos, minecraft was kind of like a huge lego set, but there were no instructions or correct/wrong way to build anything. I have such fond memories of this game and I'm glad people still have an appreciation for it.
I think of it as a drawing board for people who can't draw. I love drawing but I'm complete trash at it, and instead I can bring my creations to life in Minecraft
I also like it because I can build without needing a piece remover..

Minecraft has had Villagers for many years now, since you're in Creative Mode you can find their spawn eggs in the item menu. You also mentioned at some point in the video that you encountered some enemies in the buildings during the night, you can change that by going to the settings and changing your difficulty to Peaceful.

Minecraft does have some NPC villagers in the game, but they're not all that intelligent and are more for trading with in survival games than anything else. The next Minecraft update is actually going to concentrate on villages and villagers, so we will apparently be able to see the villagers have a routine over the course of the day and move between their homes and workplaces.
Another option is something called 'armour stands' which are basically mannequins which you can pose and stage around the place to set the scene, but that can be a pretty painstaking process, so I don't know that large scale city builds would use it all that often.
...
Whenever I play 'Minecraft' my basic goal is always to build some nice little villages, but I'm not sure that I really know all that much about realistic medieval village design, so I end up puttering around more than anything.
Also, too many armor stands would cause a lot of lag.
MessyMedieval may be of interest to you.
There's also MCA mod and Custom NPC's mod
I'm working on a it u right now..yea I just started so I only have a bank and a gas station..yet I've been playing the game for 6yrs lol.
I've been working on making a small medieval-style country in my Minecraft world for about two years now and boy is it difficult to force myself to build anything! But it's worth it because I love exploring what I've built because I don't really think about how it all fits together, so I have a bunch of weird alleys and awkward buildings that try to take advantage of the limited space.
"I basically got mugged in the parking garrage.So this city needs to work on it's crime prevention."

@@CityBeautiful just don't expect Greenland anytime soon tho 😂
But it would be so easy... just repetitive.
@@CityBeautiful true, but not all mountains are equally as large. Tho to be fair that'd be easy to do if you programme the game with an existing map... hmmm I must rethink this
Denmark? You mean Noth Germany?
I love how this reviewer jokes about the city having a crime problem, and then goes on to praise the city's similarities to Detroit
I honestly got into infrastructure and civil engineering when planning out Minecraft city builds. Go figure.
Especially roadway widths when it came to bi directional minecraft carts, or that awkward moment, only in minecraft when you need to move an entire building 1’ block’ over to make the setbacks right.
I think you can use commands or mods to move that building without rebuilding it
You'd have to add a mod to put people in the cities, even then having that many entities would lag badly. Then you'd have to accommodate logistics of them living there with beds and stuff.
Too complex
No mods required, but villagers will add so much lag it will be unplayable
I guess setting up a server with a city for roleplay could be a good solution.
lol, got mugged in a parking garage.
Yeah, you gotta watch out for those skeleton gangs downtown.
Enderman districs
I love how despite not having a lot of knowledge on the game you try to use the right words for things. It shows a lot of effort on your part
Answering your question: Review cities of Cities Skylines is a YES.
I really enjoy your videos. You explain a lot of things that I usually ignore even if I am indeed interested in Urban planning myself.
Maybe you could further explain the idea of having suburbs (or big wealthy single family housing in the outskirts of the city) as a positive thing for the city. Is it just for it to be more realistic? Or maybe you could explain the social benefits of actually having them in real cities. I understand in the US suburbs was like their bible when cities started to grow due to the car popularization. But in other parts of the world I really think suburbs are more in the innefficient side of living. IDK you tell me. :)
The US isn't the only country that has cars lol
@@tutsdws8666he means cuz every American has a car pretty much while that isn’t the same for some other countries

Isn't Real Life performs better than Minecraft in Rtx?
You should look at a game like GTA 5. Review a fictional city by game developers with no city planning experience. A few GTAs have even been perfectly replicated in Cities Skylines.
Is this a joke? Its LA I think
Its litteraly los Angeles though..
Technically the devs still have no city planning experience, they just copy pasted from real life
Los Santos' city structure was based off of Los Angeles. They just had to shrink everything down.
@@DingoXBX It's inspired by LA but doesn't really look like it at all if you compare the maps. Rockstar always cleverly captures the "feel" of a city while the actual level design is kept very small, varied, and not that much inspired by real-world streets.
Refering to a brick-street as cobblestone, not knowing that cobblestone is a different block in Minecraft
Cobblestone is different from bricks in real life too!

Yeah but a cobblestone street can look more like minecraft bricks too
Great video as always! One of my favorite channels on UA-cam for a reason.
"there should be humans in Minecraft"
*Herobrine has entered the chat*
I haven't played Minecraft in a while, but if you go onto creative city build servers the rules are usually at the spawn. Check out the World of Keralis Server as this was the best one I played on.
Some of these places are fairly master planned. Roads and rail are built, large areas are reserved, and some are subdivided by different coloured blocks to dictate zones, and how tall these buildings can be. Other players build on it, and the moderators of the server, act as a sort of a planning compliance team making sure buildings are up to code.
As a trained but unemployed planner, I'd say this is a fairly decent representation of the planning process within the limitations of Minecraft, and without all the NIMBY's.
I think WOK is dead
@@TheLightningZap Yes
7:27 "I was a little high" yea me too bro
I'm not sure if you'd be impressed with a city that I would make in Minecraft, especially when it would be more of a European city that is like this:
City planning:
-most buildings, except in a few select areas are max. 6 stories/ 150ft high
-the newest architectural style allowed, also except in a few areas (mainly ex-warehouse/port/heavy industrial areas) is streamline moderne
-most areas, except for the outer regions are mixed-use, or made up of terraced houses or 5-6 story blocks of flats with retail units below the flats or on street corners
Getting around
-Has a very large metro and S-Bahn system, plus an extremely large suburban mainline rail network)
-Has a huge tram and trolleybus network
-very little on-street parking (and any that is on street is almost always for residents only, or metred)
-Most streets are 1 or 2 lanes wide in each direction, and those that are 3 or more lanes wide have a bus and/or tram lane in the middle or on the side, or trams on grassed track in the middle of the road (the last one especially further away from the city centre)
-Trams (and occasionally buses and trolleybuses) stop at some stops in the middle of the road, and other traffic must wait behind them, and at some stops, there are either full traffic lights, or traffic lights with only an amber and red lamp, as well as the road being raised to just below the level of the doors at some on-street stops, the rest have islands
-A large number of newer housing estates are directly connected to the tram network, or are accessible to it with a bus ride to an interchange point, such as a shopping centre or suburban high street
I think it would be cool to review a more Euro-style city. The only difficulty is that many of those cities aren't built on a grid, and Minecraft really works best with right angles.
Especially when you go complete Lisbon style, and have trams that are practically *flying* through streets they barely fit through. xD
The trick is, some people specialize in creating organic angles. Check out some other town maps.
don't know how much your knowledge of minecraft has grown since this was up loaded but minecraft has cities with villagers naturally spawn through out the world. but because these are fan/man made villagers don't naturally spawn.
that last city is based on the vilages that naturally spawn in minecraft, plains biome. they are ment to be small farming towns, not really cities so that's why there are farms everywhere.
minecraft has recently updated their villages and villagers so the buildings and villagers take on appearances based on what biome they're in.
minecraft has many natural mobs, like villagers and animals, each having their own conditions needed to spawn.
Yeah and not vehicles like cars and stuff that triggered me so much when he was talking about Minecraft based on the creative/building side of it and not survival
People on the Seattle city council have actually made that remark about preserving the skyline! I thought the same thing, the city isn't about buildings, it's about people, so if we can alleviate housing scarcity, it'll help the people, which is way more important than the skyline!
And is more important than houses and jobs
This is the kind of wholesome content I rarely watch, but greatly enjoy on occasions in which I do.
When he said the city needs to work on the crime prevention because mobs “mugged” him hahhahahahaha
I live in Vancouver and the reason the park transitions straight into high rises is because that forested area is Stanley park and in real life the transition is just as sudden.
For amyone starting a city heres some advice: a one-way street should be 11 blocks wide, this allows for parked cars with 1 block clearance to traffic.
For a two-way street it should be 15 blocks wide, this allows for parked cars with 1 block clearance to traffic on both sides.
Hope this help and good building. :)
Side note: he right about the streets. I have seen many nice to great citys builds but they all shared the same mistake, narrow streets.
1:56 Empire Landmark Hotel in the background (Recently demolished). 4:40 The Qube and Trump Tower, Vancouver.
I’ve built up a whole continent with several civilizations and even some ruins in Minecraft, but I cheated a bit with my cities and kept them at the size and scale of those during the Classical, Renaissance, or Medieval period, with roads, farms, outposts, monasteries, wilderness, and villages in between. It’s nowhere near done, and I don’t have a lot of time to work on it.
Most of my cities have walls around them, and the tallest buildings tend to be religious structures and palaces, with most of the housing being tightly packed buildings. The scale is meant to be one that works with the mechanics of the game, rather than being 1:1 fully realistic re-creations of actual urban landscapes.
I don’t know what to do with my world, it would be nice to share, though not all of the buildings or places were made originally by me, though all of them have been altered by my hand, or with an external editor like WorldPaint or MCEdit.
Sounds like a really cool map! I hope you can complete it and share it with us

@@CityBeautiful Oh yo, as I have your attention. I'm curious, are there any pointers you could give a student interested in working in urban planning and sustainability? As in what sort of roadmap through education and into the workforce one might follow to end up working in urban planning?
Are you in high school or university? The shortest way to get into planning is major in urban studies/geography, do some internships, and get a low-level planning position, either with a municipality or private firm. If you already have a degree (or are too far along in a major to switch), it might make sense to get a Masters degree in planning, then enter the workforce.
@@CityBeautiful Great, thanks for the response. Currently I'm in university majoring in Resource and Environmental Management. Was looking to get a certificate in sustainable planning alongside this. Internship and co-op are things I've wondered about. Seems like experience while studying is key to getting desirable work placement post graduation.
Yep, very helpful!
In my experience Austin has this steep density curve at the moment. I would love to see a video critiquing Austins infrastructure, and city planning over the past 30 years.
The idea of "point towers" could be a real great asset in Washington, DC, whose building height restrictions date back to the 1910 law that seeks to avoid shadows over the urban landscape. This could help to increase the residential density and create more moderately priced units if implemented with affordable-unit mandates for developers.
That's true, but there is something about the height restrictions in DC that give it a unique character. And the density is still high enough to make rapid mass transit viable.
2:08 The skyscraper on the top right has one of the two revolving restaurants in Vancouver. So sad that they are demolishing it now.
Yes i heard that on the news
I think that AI can replace humans in planning new cities. AI learning could also help. But I still think that humans would still be better at changing existing cities
If the AI thinks your business is NSFA it removes your on street parking. 3 strikes and your house is bulldozed.
*Detroit: Become Human*
ZAIRED *two buildings glitching through eachother*
Narrow street = better. In a true urban area, cars can really be an afterthought as people will walk, take mass transit, or ride a bicycle. Wide streets really do nothing but make being a pedestrian more dangerous and encourage more cars and faster cars.
"It's very difficult to move those later" *cough* world edit *cough*
In the first city, I think the map creator has a pretty good road width of three blocks. Minecarts, the only means of non-animal transportation in the game at the moment, are only one block wide. In this case, the minecart may sit on the inner block of the road, just next to the yellow line. Even with on-street parking on the block next to the sidewalk, (third block from the center) there would still be a one block gap between the parking and the actual driving area. If cars were ever added to Minecraft, mods commonly suggest they would be about a block and a half to two blocks wide, making use of the one block gap. All in all, if the map creator ever adds functionality to the roads, three blocks would be a decent width, even if that doesn't seem to be the case.
In the auto-generated city, the "aquaponics" are simply small farms in the way that minecraft manages them. Blocks with crops on them have to be within a certain range of water, so you'll see stripes of water and crops.

You can do more intricate signs in modern minecraft or old.
First off, giant pixel art signs with 5 meter tall font.
Second, you can use maps as signs. It does require you to make rather enormous map art, but you can make billboards with font sizes basically as small as an inch or as big as multiple meters using map art.

Tips for exploring cities in Minecraft:
There is a "spectator" mode that one can turn on if cheats are enabled in a map, it is like noclip in other games, you can go through buidings but you cannot interact with anything. The great thing about it is that the scroll wheel of your mouse will allow you to change the speed of your flight. To enable the mode, press T to bring up the chat, type /gamemode spectator
into the box and press enter.
If you need to interact with anything, like doors or buttons, switch back into creative mode using /gamemode creative
You were using creative mode at the beginning since you had the inventory slots on-screen but no health or hunger bar, and you were flying. To fly a bit faster, press control and w then hold w. It gives a little boost compared to the normal fligt speed. Once you release w to stop going forward, the next time you press just w you will go normal speed.
In any flight sitution, holding spacebar will raise you above the ground, holding shift will make you descend.
In creative mode, pressing spacebar twice in quick succession allows you to get off the ground or "snap out" of flight, basically you fall to the ground. In creative mode, pressing spacebar once while on ground makes you jump.
Alternatively, to switch between creative and spectator, if you are in one of these modes, you can press the shortcut F3+N.
Happy exploring.
P.S. It is cannon that one Minecraft block is supposed to be a cube with side lengt one meter (3.208 feet)
P.P.S Another useful cheats:
Daytime = /time set day
Nighttime = /time set night
Sun and moon, move! = /gamerule doDaylightCycle true
Sun and moon, stop! = /gamerule doDaylightCycle false
P.P.P.S.
To show more or less of the city:
esc -> settings -> video settings -> render distance
The more you choose, the beefier your computer needs to be

It usually takes about a hour to make small homes more depending on the detail. So I’m guessing it would take a while to break all the blocks then build a new building.

Some tips:
~ You can turn off those pesky clouds: press escape and hit Options > Video Settings > Clouds (keep hitting the button until it says "Clouds: OFF")
~ You can make it so that it stays the same time of day forever: hit slash on the keyboard and type "gamerule doDaylightCycle false" and then hit enter.
~ You can also make it so it never rains: hit slash on the keyboard and type "gamerule doWeatherCycle false" and then hit enter.
Ahhh Green field gives me nightmares of the Suzhou Industrial Park in China, just a thought, you could do a video on that or Chinese style urbanisation which would be really interesting
If the map inspiration is primarily based on Vancouver then the start wasn't necessary out of town. The forest we see should be the famous 'Stanley Park'. it is located on the North-West side of downtown. In which, the bridge that we see at the start would be the Lions Gate Bridge. Note the similarity in appearance between the bridge in the map and Lions Gate.

Maybe I wasn't paying attention in August, but that fit downtown Van very well, you for from Ikea to tall buildings on the train pretty quickly.

True!
Before you said that first city was modeled after Vancouver, my thought was "That's Vancouver!" Which, btw, can actually be entered by the LionsGate Suspension bridge, which takes you directly into the large forested Stanley Park, and then takes you directly into Downtown, via a three lane highway. So your flyby accurately represents what you'd see entering Vancouver from that direction.

I've been building cities in minecraft for a long time i often build Los Angeles styled cities because thats just my favorite style of city with those like southern white/sand colored houses with brick roofs, those dusty highways hovering over the ground with forgotten commercial and industrial areas underneath, those fancy mansions on the hilltops, those gross gang infected areas with tiny houses, those wide roads with commercial buildings on the sides and large parking lots serving the fast food resturants as well as the big intersections. And then the palm trees, the mediteranian climate where it almost turns into desert at some places, the cacti, the plants, the yuccas, the bushes, the street art, the graffiti, the high saturation colored buildings, i love it!
I want to learn more about "Point Towers" but I can't find anything online about them. Is there another name they go by or do you have any links with more information on them?

I thought they were like IT clusters
The only thing I thought was off was the colour palette in the second one. The buildings were so impressive it must have taken so long.
You explain a lot of things that I never would have even considered, nice video.
I think Minecart Rapid Transit might be of interest to you
I live in the Pacific Northwest and was not expecting to learn so much about the architecture of my own region. Love the video!
i recommend setting your render distance to far, so you could see more further
What about lag? ;-;
I've played Minecraft since Alpha and I didn't find your exploration of the cities or playing cringy at all! It was a wonderful and informative video and don't be afraid to really get into each city should you repeat this and look in depth. The commentary really gave great insight into how cities are planned and built. If you get into playing Minecraft, you'll find that without mods, there are some difficult limitations to how you can build and what you can do, but it's still a really cool game and it lends to a particular aesthetic. Whether you try your hand at Survival or Creative mode, hopefully you can have fun.

yes!
The first one is like a mix of Pacific Northwest US in architectural style and North Korea in layout. Like urban planners were just given free reign to design a city without sprawl.
What’s amazing is that I live SUPER close to what this city is based on.
I love the remark in the video about "lack of people" in these cities. Classic Minecraft, has randomly generated towns, which tend to come with villagers, but, honestly, I'm sure that, attempting to spawn in villagers into these cities would likely crash the systems.
As for the lack of vehicles, I've got an older version of Greenfield that I downloaded sometime back. And, in there, they've got loads of trains, cars, trucks, etc. in various places, and even a spot with a fire engine putting out a fire.
However, I'd love to see the kind of city you would make in Minecraft. Though, I would like to suggest sticking either with the Java Edition, or the newer cross platform version. This one would allow just about anyone to join and help you build a really good city.
And, yes, do go over the Cities: Skylines cities, because, I've seen a few videos from people playing, and that game looks spectacular, would love to see what you can find on it. :)
Fight back against buzzfeed! Great content as always 👍👍
It's not "fighting back" but yeah great content
You can use NPC villagers as people. Although getting them to behave nicely isn't always easy. They're happy to run into a highway for example. Having realistic populations in a large city could also get very laggy very fast.
As for cars, designing a static construct that looks like a car is doable. Making a boat or minecart you can use like a car is also doable. Making cars that move like cars would require mods.
