An extremely rare Minecraft: How To Install (& Make) Straw Golems
Minecraft's Glitches Are Just As Fascinating As The Rest Of The Game
Discovering a one in five million seed in one day and a one in 500 million seed a few days later is very lucky, and Minecraft fans in the replies shared their excitement and their own experiences with these massive sinkhole lakes. The recent controversial Minecraft Mob Vote caused some division among fans of the game, but a striking discovery like this seems to have united many fans in the spirit of curiosity. The program that generated these all-consuming lakes is just a small part of all that goes into Minecraft's world generation, and it's exciting for fans to witness what is possible in the base game alone.
Given the size and scope of the game, it's only natural that glitches would pop up here and there. Fortunately, Minecraft tends to have more than its fair share of amusing and sometimes even beneficial errors. Last year, for instance, one player was able to use a Minecraft portal glitch to create infinite pork chops, ensuring a limitless source of food for their adventures. While a colossal hole in the fabric of reality itself would be a severe problem in many other games, it's fitting to Minecraft's themes of exploration that its players are treating it as a remarkable discovery instead.
With such numerous possibilities in the base game alone, alongside all the creations and mods Minecraft's community has created in the past decade, it's no wonder that Minecraft has remained popular for so many years. Although the hype around the blocky survival title frequently rises and falls, millions of players are still actively playing and creating every day. From seeds containing lakes that completely break down world generation to fan-made multiplayer modes and the recent creation of a huge Minecraft Civil War build preserving history, it will be interesting to see what else is in store for Minecraft.
