Texture Variations

The textures in Minecraft differ depending on the block. But the individual blocks then have a fixed texture. That's a pity because then the world looks a bit "boring". If, for example, ores, or tree trunks, had varying textures, it would be much more realistic and detailed than if the texture was always the same.
The creatures need the same. In real life non creature is looking same like an other from the same kind. For this you could simply use the textures from Minecraft Earth for this.

    I would like to see texture variations for blocks depending on the biome they are placed in, as well as what block is next to it, and which side that block is touching. Examples would be an overlay on a block next to a different block, and connected textures for the same block next to itself. There could also be a sandy texture variant or overlay for some blocks if they are placed in a desert or a beach, and similar texture enhancements themed for each biome. Also, if logs are placed next to each other, and the ends are facing in the same direction in a 2 by 2 , the textures should connect to make larger tree rings. More advanced texture graphics like these would make the game more interesting and immersive.
