As Minecraft’s latest update, the Trails and Tales, approaches its release, there is already hope that update 1.21 will see major changes to the End Dimension. While Mojang has updated the Nether and the Overworld many times, adding new biomes, blocks, and mobs, the End dimension remains noticeably stale and barren of anything new. With numerous mods that can help inspire Mojang to update Minecraft's End dimension, there is one upcoming game that may have the answer to not only give the End fresh content, but also give players a chance to experiment with the overall generation of the dimension.
Nightingale is an upcoming survival crafting game where players will be able to build and explore various dimensions alongside other players. It’s realm card system, that will allow players to travel between dimensions, promises a cross between procedural generation and player agency, with different combination of cards creating different dimensions to explore. This system could work perfectly for Minecraft’s End, as players will be able to control certain aspects of the dimension’s generation to focus on obtaining certain resources or loot.
Nightingale’s Dimension System
Nightingale is already one of the most anticipated games with its revolutionary realm card system set to shake up dimensional travel within video games. Realm cards will be a craftable item in the game and will allow players to control various elements of the dimension such as terrain generation, weather, and creature spawning or behavior. This system will allow players to explore more varied dimensions, seek out specific resources that they may require for some of their bigger builds, and even discover recipes for new realm cards that can give them access to even more dimensions to explore.
With this system in place, Nightingale sounds like it will have a potentially limitless combination of cards to create new dimensions, keeping the game fresh for players and allowing them to explore to their heart’s content. Further, the system can greatly cut down on farming times for certain resources by generating a dimension with an abundance of that resource. The use of these realm cards will surely elevate the gameplay of Nightingale and could even lead to the system becoming a mainstay for other survival crafting games with dimensions to explore.
New Eyes of Enders Could Make The End Customizable
Minecraft’s End dimension is in serious need of an update, especially with so much that has been added to both the Overworld and the Nether. Currently, the End offers little need for exploration outside locating End Cities, and once players obtain the Elytra, there is almost nothing to entice them back to the dimension. So, utilizing Nightingale’s realm card system in the form of different types of Eyes of Ender could be a great way to make the End the ultimate dimension for players looking to farm certain resources, encounter certain mobs, or generate certain blocks.
There are currently mods in Minecraft that require players to access 12 different types of Eyes of Ender to activate the Stronghold portal and travel to the End. These types of Eyes of Ender can be utilized to add Nightingale’s realm card system into Minecraft, making it possible for players to control the generation of terrain, mobs, and potentially new structures in the End. Releasing an update that gives player’s control over how the End is generated can also make every venture into the dimension different, forcing players to make every trip count as their next attempt could completely change the generation or location of certain landmarks and structures.
With Mojang continuing to add updates, and various mods emerging to inspire future updates for the game, it is high time that End dimension gets the attention it deserves. Nightingale has a great formula for dimension exploration and if Minecraft were to implement this, the End is the perfect blank canvas, adding more challenges to the dimension while giving players a new system to utilize. While adding this to the End dimension will make it considerably more challenging for players, it will also make it extremely rewarding and could potentially lead to every Minecraft world growing exponentially larger in the process.
