Some of us like to build though.

See, many people say graphics are less important than gameplay. Which is true, especially with Minecraft.

But a good looking base makes the gameplay that much more enjoyable.

I've known plenty who just throw all their machines and farms out in a field. And it works, it just doesn't look great. With a bit of TLC, they could have an awesome base. But it seems like they want to speedrun Minecraft and be done with it.

Last base I build was a Solarpunk Utopia city in a giant dome to keep out the rain. It was a perfect dome made with geometry and the create mod so I didn't have to build it myself. Radius of 128 blocks.
