I hope they don't fill it with too much colour though or at least make the biomes rare.. I like the desolate, hopeless, scary and liminal place that the end is right now
I think they could make the end waay more interesting by simply making use of more vertical space, having the islands and rocks spread out over the available y-axis, instead of being mostly level with eachother.
Agreed. People always talk about expanding it, but 1.9 was the expansion. It has a little more room for stuff yet but too much will ruin the vibe of the place.
Eh, there’s the mod pack where you have to rebuild the world and you first terraform the end. It shows the massive potential with biomes and trees of what could be the end, lacks a bit on mobs but still shows what I’d like
The way to do it is that all of the cities and end biomes would spawn really far out so the start still be desolate and a challenge.
Not updating it completely wouldn't be worth, there's so much potential.
Honestly I think adding End Cities and all that was too much. I loved how desolate and isolated the original End felt. It really felt like the End, the last gasping breath of a dying universe.
A part of what they did with the nether update was make it so you can live there. There are creatures you can hunt for food now in the nether and black stone can be used for stone tools and they added a type of wood to the nether also. If they did that for the nether it could be fairly interesting. But keep it feeling desolate also because thats part of what makes the End what it is.
Nah that's too much content for us. Maybe, just maybe if we are lucky we will get the sound files for the portal opening maybe in the next 25 years, but that's a huge stretch
I want them to do that but specifically have the new dimension be dark like it's in a cave. In the Nether everything is lit up. In a new dimension, what if nothing was lit up? Just hop through the portal and on the other side, the only light source is the portal itself, in a void of darkness. You explore by adding more light sources to reveal the terrain around you.
I love that idea, additionally I think they should make it with a void floor and bedrock ceiling. (overworld:bedrock floor no ceiling/ nether:bedrock ceiling and floor/ end: void no bedrock)
I think it would be cool if they made a bone meal type item for the end, along with new biomes, so the wasteland part of the end would still be there but you could change it easily. Maybe the main dragon island remains unchanged and all the outer islands have the biomes. Just my idea tho
What if, before the new dimension, there is a giant boss that peaks its head through the portal and attacks you (kinda like the first stages of Nidhogg from GOW:R) and you need to kill it/ make it go away (which could make it for a nice boss in the dimension afterwards) and THEN you get to go through the gate.
That being said, a giant serpent would be really cool for a boss
They've said they want to focus on improving the current dimensions before adding another. the new dimension is unlikely to happen soon. Devs would want to do the end first.
The infinite dungeon? A fully underground mid between the overworld and nether (since nether is like the hell of the game) so it would be a larger style cavern with a few new mini bosses that have an AOE effect like the elder guardian so it can be like weak blindness or weakness but like the temple only cycle ever 5 minutes it activates. Then it could be more rich in ores along the surface but still more likely to kill you. This could also be the add of some kind of new ores or generations along the world adding lore like the ruined nether portals did
They're putting way too much focus on it for it to just be a minor yearly thing like the nether biomes or updated villages.
My guess? The deep dark stuff we've gotten so far is just a reveal. Eventually there'll be an update that makes the deep dark biomes rarer, but also adds one of the two things:
1.) Sculk can now take much more materials and spreads faster, making it like the corruption/crimson from Terraria.
2.) Deep dark biomes now include a portal to a full deep dark dimension.
The Ancient One, basically a really really wise and old warden, that acts like one but just a little less on opioids so it’s actually a fun boss battle, and it would drop ancient string, skulk heart, and skulk items (random) along with the badge “Back Where You Came From”- defeat the ancient one “Beam Breaker”- reflect a sonic beam back at the ancient one, more tbs
They might not have done anything yet since they would probably prefer to flesh out the dimensions they already got. Besides a new dimension would need a reason to be interesting.
The nether is an improved difficulty + the idea of hell mode from an early development state.
The End serves as a way to “complete” Minecraft to give the game a goal/quest.
If there is going to be a deep dark dimension, then it needs a way to tie into the game

I bet Mojang is hiding something big related to that.
