My mommy group had a minecraft server when all our kids were potato stage and it was mostly a few very talented redstone builders, a few people collecting resources, and my husband in the corner building a penis castle with penis fountains overlooking our little town.
hahaha I am actually glad that it doesnt look polished, but still looks good enough. This way you can make it much prettier with mods, but if you have a slow pc you can also enjoy playing it without much trouble!
Honestly, fair. What counts as pretty to minecraft people is still probably objectively a bit jank. That, and you can make builds and lighting and textures that are truly beautiful at a distance, but minecraft gameplay is usually not at a distance. Gameplay is you standing half a meter from an ugly tree so you can punch it to death.
