Deeper Oceans

Minecraft is in the process of adding the mounts of mayhem update and as much as I love it a huge feature they could include is deeper oceans. There are 2 updates you could create just from having a deeper ocean

1. A scarier ambience. Riding your nautilus deeper into the ocean as it starts getting darker and all you can hear is the water moving as you go deeper is such a scary experience because you don’t know what to prepare for or what you are going to find at the bottom which brings me to the next idea

2. An underwater castle or dungeon that the drowned are from. This would be a great way to go deeper into the story of the drowned and maybe even open up a connection between them and the ocean monument where the guardians are since these mobs are hostile towards each other. This could also introduce a new mob from the deep down like for example the barnacle mob that lost Minecraft’s 2017 mob vote could appear in the depths dismounting players from their nautilus. Glow squids could also spawn down in the depths

    I agree, I think all oceans should generally get deeper by a bit, but only when they’re farther from shore (or in specific biomes) would they be like way deeper. Because then there’s a nice gradient, deeper oceans are slightly cooler, but also for people mining underground who happy to go slightly under an ocean, this shouldn’t inconvenience them

    When I built an underwater structure, I found that sea is too shallow. In my opinion, I think the purpose of adding nautilus to Minecraft is to encourage users to build underwater structures. To do so, it is needed for Mojang to deepen the Deap Ocean.

    Yeah, it'd be great to get some deeper oceans to match the new world height / depth. Like deep oceans are great and I love that they're split by temperature, but I think we need a third type of ocean that can spawn next to deep oceans and be even deeper, like going down to Y = 0. I don't know what this deeper scarier ocean biome could be called, but I think it would be an excellent location for the Barnacle from the mob vote and / or a new underwater structure.

    I think oceans should be deeper because oceans haven't really changed and there isn't even a boss a huge creature like a giant squid of levatin would make a good boss the only deep oceans I have ever seen is when world gen breaks and a minecraft glitch happens terrain underwater where caves would float and the ocean would go all the way to -59 and make these huge rough deepslate spikes and terrian which always looked cool and it was awesome for diamond mining.
