Another version of The CORE

I have an idea for a dimension! The core! Basically it is below the bedrock layer and is much hotter than the Nether in Minecraft. It requires a portal made with bedrock. The only way this can be mined is with an emerald pickaxe. IT IS NOT A GOOD IDEA TO GO TO THIS DIMENSION WITHOUT IRON ARMOR +!!!You cannot go in with leather armor because you will burn up, even with potion of fire resistance. Gold armor will work, but it will slowly be damaged. No armor will result in burning. You must have a full suit of armor otherwise you will burn up. You cannot mine any generated blocks without an emerald pickaxe. The monsters include Coremen, (basically a red Enderman) Burners, and husk zombies. The tame mobs are all fire versions of Overworld mobs. The lava is hotter and more yellowish than traditional lava. It is very common. Diamonds and emeralds occur more often in this dimension. All Overworld ores generate here. The only new ore is Firestone Ore, which can be used for fire resistant armor and tools that cause other mobs or players to burst into flames if they do not have the armor on.

    You have a wonderful imagination, but as far as good gameplay is concerned, this idea is extremely poorly thought through. Just a few issues I can see:

    1) Your ideas about leather armor burning up, gold armor taking extra damage, and taking extra damage without a full suit of armor in this dimension are all totally unprecedented, and it isn't clear why this kind of behavior would be worth adding. (It also isn't super clear how they work.)

    2) The emerald pickaxe is not a good idea. Mojang probably wouldn't want anything in the game that can break bedrock. Emerald is also easier to find than diamond if you find a village, which makes for some weird progression.

    3) The main goal of your dimension, finding Firestone ore, is totally worthless because of the Fire Protection armor enchantment and the Fire Aspect weapon enchantment... not to mention a good old Fire Resistance potion.
