Naturally generated structures need redesign

under review

As of the latest version of the game, it has come to my attention that villages, desert pyramids, and nether fortresses now look really boring. And I mean REALLY boring. I’m sure that their original designs were monumental not long after they were released in their corresponding updates, now however........eeeehhhhh not so much. Being a Minecrafter for 4 years, I no longer get that OOOOOOH AAAAAAAAAH feeling whenever I come across these places and explore them you feel me? 

I don’t think it’s fair that these structures are neglected and pushed aside like a mother cat sadly rejecting one of her kittens! And if you think it sounds THAT bad, it’s because it is THAT BAD! It just infuriates me.

Cmon guys! At least one major redesign on these structures so they look a lot more epic and adventurous is good enough for me! I really don’t want to have to go through the trouble of redesigning it myself, especially in creative.

    Perhaps they could keep the old designs well adding new ones. Also improving gameplay and respawn would be helpful.

    I'm at least glad that they did a village redesign because the regular villages had become... well, bland. I'm sure Minecraft will look better with some extra structure redesign, however. I mean, how many of you get annoyed while trying to find treasure in the Nether fortresses and getting lost? With a simple redesign, maybe things won't be so... irritating.

    Also, the dungeons really need to be more difficult to get in to.

    I agree naturally generated structures need a huge update. 

    Logdotzip made a video about it and I think its great.

    SystemZee also made a video about structures that should be added and I agree.

    This would be great. Villages have already had a redesign, but everything else I totally agree with. Changes wouldn't have to be drastic, but small details could make them look nicer. Except Witch houses. A major redesign is needed there.

    I do think the stronghold should get a new layout with new rooms. I also find desert temples to be boring, I would like to see more traps and possibly have them be semi-random generates traps.

    Mojang, Please Make a shattered savannah village which has houses made of stripped and normal acacia logs, Acacia trap doors, Smooth stone slabs, With floating islands with houses on them. They Also have pastures with 3 mules in them renamed Village Stock Movers. These mules will not be rideable and you cannot access their chests, but in one of the surrounding houses there is a farmer selling a lead renamed Village Stock Movers Pass Costing 15 emeralds which will give you access the horse and its chest, and it will be fast. I hope you liked my suggestion!😃

    The structures are meant to make you think "I could do better" so you go in to modify, or build your own. Otherwise the game plays itself and you potentially get really frustrated when all you can build is a dirt box...

    I agree the nether fortresses and such are bland they certainly suffer from only using the blocks from when they where first added.

    To put it simply:

    Players want to be surprised.

    The best way to provide surprises is variety.

    Said variety would also add interest and doesn't require the structures be breathtaking,

    all it requires is a few more prefabs being cycled between.

    I think we should do something like this:

    Example Desert Temple:

    - Classic Desert Temple [A]
    - Variant of Classic Desert Temple [B]
    - Variant of Classic Desert Temple [C]
    - Structure Block Desert Temple 1
    - Structure Block Desert Temple 2
    - Structure Block Desert Temple 3
    - Structure Block Desert Temple 4
    - Large Structure Block Desert Temple 1 (Dynamic generation on traps and tunnels and whats inside or in side rooms)
    - Large Structure Block Desert Temple 2 (Dynamic generation on traps and tunnels and whats inside or in side rooms)


    They should make the classic desert temple we see today "Rarest" to find and the variants of it "semi rare"
    and the structure variants to be the main ones and the large structure variants to be less common than the structure ones but more than classic variants etc.

    This would add flavour to the deserts and every temple would be unique enough it would be hard to notice if its the same.

    -Nether Fortresses: Have no texture too them and appear quite bland, should include more color and variety of rooms and traps

    -Ocean Monuments: Disappointed these weren't updated in the update aquatic, should now include the new waterlogged slabs and stairs of their corresponding prismarine. Also maybe make the structure odd numbers so their less strange gaps and crevices between the rooms and that easy round about section of the monument to make it more challenging.

    -Mineshafts can do with some aesthetic changes as well as new rooms or adding TNT in random areas?

    -Desert Temples: Have Husks spawn and guard the temple like the pillager outposts! including more aesthetically pleasing details and use the new sand blocks would be perfect for this. Make the second floor useful or at least a part of the lore somehow. Maybe by making the room appear more crypt like but keep the structures design mainly

    -Jungle Temples. Same scenario as the Desert Temple can do with some second floor puzzle or trap and maybe include some new blocks to add to the lore and atmoshere.

    -Dungeons: Too easy to defeat and not a lot of adventure in them. Maybe by making multiple types of dungeons designed to fit the type of spawner it has. Adding details like high ceiling and cobwebs for spider spawners or small side rooms where skeletons can shoot you from add difficulty but makes finding them more fun. They should contain 3 parts to it: a trapped corridor, the spawner room, and the treasure room to make it seem more like something to find and go through!

    Mojang should update the nether fortress in the nether update to look like Grian's  transformation from one of his videos.

    Maybe they could have expert builders make 5 or 6 designs for each structure then have them randomized for structures with a set look like desert temples. For ones where the structure itself is generated by a random procedure, they should do the same thing, but separate it into segments, so each segment will have 5-6 randomly generated designs, and the segments combine to create the whole structure.
