I'm just curious as to what everyone thinks makes a 'good' island, just generally (opinion). Discuss Personally, my main criteria for a 'good' island is one which is 'hoppable'. That is, you can just hop around forever and not get bored lol.
Good island is pretty subjective. But generally it has a balance of materials or a theme. Builds that look good or are unique. It doesn't necessarily have to be big or have a high level. Some might find a good island to be one with cool machines, have a nice shop on them or are completely for productivity. My preference is an island that is not too big, has nice scenery and uses a variety of materials.
I normally find that when you build something cool, it tends to raise your level a good bit ( to me, a high level is 100 )
A good island is often interactive. Often with creative designs and things. Interactive to guests, meaning they can do stuff such as play a piston game or something. Also, design is a good part of this, but it does not make up all of a good island. Try introducing new ideas on your island, such as a pass system or a new use for an item.
In my opinion, island level is completely irrelevant to what makes a good island. Many people just place high value blocks on their island purely for the island level. I personally like terraformed islands, whether that be a floating island in the sky like a proper skyblock island or just terrain all around you, it has a nice aesthetic to it. Shops are also great as some players decorate theirs or create a nice shopping experience for players. Of course, this thread is all down to each individual but I definitely think islands that are unique are the best. : )
Thanks for complimenting my island Ye I mostly prefer good terraformed island, the ones that use different materials, designs and landscapes. Although floating islands aren't my favourite, I like the normal terrain terraforming like hills, mountains, etc.
I like the sort of island that has cool redstone stuff (craney100 on economy) or looks nice/floating island sorta thing
I like terraformed islands, especially ones that take a unique take on terraforming! Also I love an island that has lots of little things to find, because you can just run around it for ages.
little things to find, ehh? Plez tell me the islands you have in mind I need more island hunts to find hidden rooms and such
To me, what makes a 'good island' is the value of the build itself and the story behind it. I have a few builds placed by close friends or people I care about, some don't even play anymore unfortunately. From a subjective point of view, a good island presents personal value, memories and something we cherish. But most importantly, a good story to tell when someone visits your island and asks 'whats this?' and thats what I believe makes a good island.
