Talk:Tutorials/Best biomes for homes

Opinionated
Awfully opinionated. IF this page exists, it should be more a guide on choosing what biomes to live in, not a list of the best/worse biomes.


 * Yeah, and early vs. late game has different considerations And there's not much actual info.  Proposing deletion...

 * I agree. This is quite a terrible page, but I think we should keep it. Many players may need to decide whether or not they want to stay in a certain biome. We also should probably consider the early vs late game differences as said before and replace all the "I's with something less opinion-based. We need it to be more like an encyclopedia, because right now it's like a list of stuff made from a selfish individual Willingham yAAOz (talk) 02:14, 30 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Anyone want to help me clean this up? What we could is make a list of biomes and list the resources, some pros and some cons (keeping late vs. early differences in mind) and add pictures and maybe a short history. Minecraft is a sandbox game, so there shouldn't be anyone saying that "this is the worst" or "don't live here". Plus, it's away to adapt to a certain biome. And I'm sure whoever DIDN'T follow this guide would be more experienced in living under certain conditions than the ones who did. Massive clean-up needed.Willingham yAAOz (talk) 02:19, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

Just going to throw this out here and come up with a format that we could use to massively clean up this page... We could do it like this:

For example, say the Plains

Plains

Resources: Wood, Seeds, Flowers, Grass

Exclusive Resources: None

Pros: Lots of flat space, NPC Villages, Horses

Cons: Easy to get sniped by a Skeleton

The Plains is a good biome for the... etc.

Really, it shouldn't say good or bad unless it says why it is (unless it's extremely obvious). For example, one person could say the ocean is bad just because there's no land or, anything really. But the Ocean is an exceptional place for Squid Farming and a bunch of other things. And this page says "I think the Jungle is the worst biome ever". Really, the jungle supplies heaps of wood and vines, and are home to the cute ocelots and the rare cocoa beans. Not to mention the occasional Jungle Temple.

Anyone can just throw out whatever they want the format to be, or just comment on the format I had hereWillingham yAAOz (talk) 02:53, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

i think this page should be fact based. it should also include every biome ‡Selene011‡ (talk) 18:28, 26 July 2015 (UTC)


 * This is a tutorial, you cannot make tutorials fact based as they are one persons idea of how to do something. It is especially true since this article is titled "best biomes", not "advantages of certain biomes". If you want a fact based list of biomes, try biomes. – KnightMiner  t/c 20:41, 26 July 2015 (UTC)

Igloos
Should we add that fact that you can live in an igloo in the Cold Taiga? All you need to do is add a door, cure the zombie in the cellar (which you're given the ingredients to do if there even is a basement) and you're set.

Would it really make it any more useful, though?
