So, how would you fix the end? Be sure to subscribe and join my discord - discord.gg/WGc9UNM

The End could be Mojang's opportunity to finally begin testing out cubic chunks. Imagine a dimension which you explore not only horizontally, but also vertically. Certainly, this is something you would need Elytra for, so why not. The further out you would travel, the more vertically offset the individual islands would spawn, until you would be forced to fly and explore along the Y axis only.

The only thing I think is that the end should also feel desolate and difficult to survive in. It shouldn’t feel alive in the way the over world or nether does

I feel like the end should still be very inhospitable, but it doesn't have to be barren. Maybe more Y axis exploration and a few more blocks would be a small change, but I feel that it would go a long way.

I do think the end has been in need of an update for quite a while, though I'm not sure it should feel more "lively" like the nether does now, I think it should stay desolate-feeling but still include more variety. Elytra upgrades/enchantments are also a really good idea, they've been in need of some for quite a while

I feel like maybe instead of having an ore that is used to upgrade elytra, a different use for end ore could be to upgrade diamond gear (not a tier above netherite, but more like an alternate upgrade path. Maybe instead of adding additional knockback resistance and toughness it would increase movement speed/jump height or boost attack strength?)

Until an end update arrives, I recommend looking into these end upgrade mods: Better End (Both Forge and Fabric) Endergetic Expansion (Forge only) Enderscapes (Fabric only)

I think the End should be completely alien to the overworld and nether and still give off that feeling of barrenness it's always had. For example, maybe instead of spicing up the visual appearance of the End with more plantlife and biomes, the landscape could be made interesting with more deliberately built structures to stand out unnaturally from the surroundings and help give it the feeling of a harsh wasteland that was settled at one point. I also think the idea of new end ores is kind of uninspired, I'd like if the way you found materials there was unique, kind of like how netherite is found by finding buried debris from an ancient civilization instead of just something like "netherite ore". The possibilities are really end-less, heh ;)

I think a cool thing could be having a biome where it appears to be upsidedown. To collect its resources you have to carefully land on trees.

IMO, The end should be entirely alien compared to the overworld. Biomes should feel weird and unnatural, mobs should bare only the slightest resemblence to those of the overworld, ect. For traders in particular, I think they could work, but they'd need to be unique in some way, like how Piglin bartering works compared to Villager trading. One idea I had that I might try and flesh out a bit is the idea of End merchants trading in "Concepts" instead of currency. Instead of giving them a resource, you can accept certain debuffs in exchange for goods, abilities, or services. For example, you could trade "The color of your eyes". This would make the game black and white for an hour or so, and in exchange you might get teleported to an end city. Or you could trade "The serenety of light", which would damnpen all light sources near you and allow mobs to spawn, and in exchange gain the ability to launch yourself foward as though you had a Riptide trident.

One quite interesting thing with a future end update is that we are almost guaranteed a end music disc. Because we already got pigstep in the 1.16 nether update, and now otherside in 1.17 caves and cliffs, two music disc specifically for two of the three minecraft dimensions, all in all 14. And every music disc gives a unique comparator output when its in a jukebox, but there can only be a maximum signal strength of 15, so mojang can only release one more disc, and I am convinced this would be a music disc dedicated to the end. I have no idea, when this update is gonna take place, but I think the next big update would be it.

About fixing the end, there was a 1.17 snapshot glitch that made the islands SUPER tall (there were goats in the end too but that’s not my point) it was beautiful, the +64 in height and +64 in depth could have a lot of potential for new above the void structures and other ideas people have

I think the biggest problem with the end is that it is so empty and peaceful, more vertical structures and details would make it less flat and empty, and something to make it hard to survive is definitely needed.

I remember hearing something about how they want to update each dimension before they would add a new one, so I personally think that we might be getting an End update sooner than we think, the Nether got updated, and the overworld is getting a massive over haul with caves, cliffs, and biomes, so, logic would dictate, that 1.20 could be the possibility of the End.

Its not that challenging but it does need some more updates added to it so its more unique to explore and do stuff

My thoughts on the end are definitely split pretty hard. I can go either way, depending on how it's implemented. As it stands in it's current state, its definitely empty but kinda thematically sits with the overall game. In a game that thrives on creativity, it's certainly thematic that the end of the game is just empty. The real game isn't getting to The End it's quite literally about the journey to it. It's barren and empty kinda how beating a game ends up making you feel. Once you reach the endgame there's nothing left. Adding more content to The End feels like it takes away from that nature almost. It makes it seem like instead of "The End" it's "Almost The End". On the other hand, I'm all for new things to explore. An update to the dimension would still probably be received greatly depending on how it's built. Making it more visually appealing would be a great idea and they could make it more dangerous the further you traveled out for example. Maybe stronger mobs spawn ~2000 blocks away from the gateways or something like that. I'd for one love it to feel more alien and unnatural. Like the Xen from Half-Life for example. Something unnatural and unsettling that a normal person would not be used to. Allowing them to expand it in this way allows the team to flex a lot of creativity since it doesn't need to make sense as well.

I love the Elytra Gems. What if the red gave armor points instead of doing damage since theres a special enchant for that? That would definitely be a PvP related ability and would fit better with the other two. It would also be almost like letting players wear a weaker chestplate with their elytra, something we've all always wanted. Why hasnt someone made this a mod yet??

As someone who's been playing Minecraft for 12 years & been to the end multiple times, I agree with that the end should get more updates to it as it feels empty right now. It definitely needs more stuff added that makes exploration feel more interesting as well instead of being this giant empty land. Also, you would expect the end to be more amazing than the other dimensions as it's the last dimension every player unlocks in their worlds. (Not saying it's bad, it just needs some more changes too it.)

I still remember when it was just empty void past the main island. People like to complain a *lot* about 1.9 cause of the combat update but elytra (especially once they added rocket boosting) are one of my favorite items in the game and at the very least it was a step in the right direction for a rather ignored dimension. Perhaps in later updates they will once again flesh it out a bit more, the great thing is is that there are so many wonderful possibilities (just look at some of the end dimension mods!).

I'm glad you talked about End Trading. I have thought about how it might work after Bartering was added in 1.16. All the dimensions seem to be following a unique way of trading so I thought that a cool way for it to work in the End was like so: You can find some more intelligent-looking Endermen around certain structures. You trade with them by placing down a block of something(perhaps copper) and they pick it up. After this they will place a block back down for you, your reward. I'm thinking that it should be random, like Piglin Bartering but you can influence the intelligent Endermen to give you more valuable items(increase the chances, not preventing the less valuable blocks from being placed) by giving them more valuable blocks. It's not fully AFKable unless you have something to hold down your right-click, but after that, we can collect the Endermen trades using TNT and pistons, while you sit in a minecart placing blocks. Plus I think it would be cool to see how the normal Endermen might be bringing blocks from the other dimensions for the intelligent ones to study.

Regarding the section on mobs, there are plenty new mobs that they could pull from Minecraft Dungeons. For example they could use the minibosses that hold the eye's of ender as minibosses that guard the elytra books instead of the giants

Not every dimension should be livable or full of life. But giving them some unique things to stand out from other dimensions (like being barren) is a must.

i would love to play in this imaginary version of yours. also, it would be FANTASTIC to see more bits of minecraft lore in the dimention, like something hinting at why the ancient builder civilization collapsed.

IMO, i feel like it would be cool that the end had debris falling from the sky randomly, or like space winds that makes movement a bit more difficult. I also would like if the end had rough terrain and more mobs that make it seem like the end was abandoned and in ruins

I love the gem idea. I feel like you'd need to mine a few ores to create a single gem (Like getting quartz in the nether). I also think a cool idea would be to have a gem that reduced your gravity while flying (increasing air time)

End Wild looks absolutely amazing. The red one is interesting, but I think the colors bite each other too much.

You forgot a very VERY important thing that alone, would've boosted The End's population by a minimum of x2, and that is an End version of the Respawn Anchor

8:44 That is one very unique generated cave. Also. I really like how you use amethyst in the End as it fits with the dimension perfectly. How about they generate in the End islands and you can use them to trade/barter with a new kind of Ender Villager/Enderlins.

I would maybe bring in some ideas from the Ice & Fire mod, introducing new dragons. The Ender Dragon would be remade to be the master of all dragons you would have to beat. My idea would also completely rebuild the concept of the end, building a new stronghold with new mobs actually guarding the place. There would be tons of new rooms. For example: Armorys, meeting rooms, shrine rooms etc. You can find information about new dragons there, where to find them, their strenghts, weaknesses etc. You would have to kill all of the smaller dragons before you can activate the end portal. There would be multiple stages of dragons (stage 1-5). They would be able to drop dragon scales and you can retrieve their blood. The scales can be used to make new armors with buffs. Example: Full fire dragon armor would give you fire resistance and it would give you a strength buff if you're close to fire/ lava, retrieving power from those blocks. You have to collect all of the stage 5 dragons heads to activate the portal to the master dragon (the portal is found in the new pre-end dimension which you can reach by infusing the well known end portal with the 12 eyes of ender). There would be a fire dragon (found in the nether), a ice dragon (found in snowy biomes underneath glaciers), a water dragon (nest found in deep oceans near underwater caves) and the ender dragon (found in the pre end). Then finding the new portal to the master dragon in the pre end you will be sent to a seperate dimension where you will encounter it. It will have the pillars with end crystals to heal itself and elemental crystals (which are guarded by the same mobs that are guarding the stronghold) which it can retrieve the powers of all of the other four dragons from. It will be way stronger that you basically need dragon scale armor to kill it and have much more health. Dragon blood infused weapons are going to be the best chance to deal the most amount of damage to the dragon. After killing the master dragon you will recieve a dragon egg, which will either be a fire, ice, water, ender or master dragon egg. You can then breed dragons to gain a new way of flight. The master dragon will also drop scales which can be used to make a new kind of elytra, working similarly to the old one, being powered by rockets and can only be repaired by using a master dragons blood (therefore cant be enchanted with mending). After defeating the master dragon, a new portal will spawn in the end, needing more stage 5 dragon heads and getting a much bigger dimension, with more health, more crystals etc. to every new encounter much harder than the first one. You will basically never run out of the fighting a boss and it will only get more challenging each time, making the master dragon a never dying ultimate boss of Minecraft.

personally, i really like how minecraft dungeons handles the end, along with the shitloads of weapons minecraft dungeons has that would really make combat more interesting. I think we'll get an end update in 1.20 if the combat snapshots get released alongside it

History of Modded Minecraft when Also here are my fixes for The End 1. More content. 2. Dragonstone being an element above Netherite, to truly have an Endgame feel 3. A better Ender Dragon; beds have rendered it as weak as it's Pre-1.9 variant 4. More variations of End Cities 5. Perhaps better generation

Honestly, if we got end biomes the phantoms would probably fit pretty well into some of them. (But maybe in return remove them from the overworld)

What I'd want is an ore that allows you to upgrade and have defensive stats and enchantments (aka protection and thorns) on the elytra, of course I don't want it to be diamond/netherite tier or even involve diamonds at all, it could be a slight defense boost for leather armor upgrade for all I care, perhaps call it "Dragon Hide Chestplate", made with 1 Elytra, 1 leather chestplate and 6 "Ender ingots" if you want to expand the concept to make a full set of Ender Armor/Tools they could be barely worse than Diamond, perhaps than Iron, but have the special ability that when you die it all stays with you after Dead Perfect for future End exploration since the most common way to die in the end is through falling into the void and losing everything You could expand even more it and allow you to upgrade totems of undying with 8 Ender ingots, into something even stronger, a reusable "totem of respawning" of sorts that when you die, you immediately resurrect and you're teleported to your spawn point and keeping your entire inventory with you, the totem then "breaks" needing to be repaired with an Ender Block (9 Ender ingots) in an anvil that'd could be a permanent incentive to keep going back to the end and mining Ender ore to repair your totems

About the elytra gems - It'd be cool if you could only put in one of them, but they have their own durability bar. You'd have to worry about not just your elytra breaking, but the special gem inside of it too. Of course, this'd also give you another reason to visit the end more often. Enchantments for the gems could be an option too. Like an enchantment that just boosts the effect of the gem, or how long it'll last. Also I really liked the effect ideas you had, though I don't think they'll be adding 3 new ores in a single update. It could be mob drops though, with the mobs reflecting the special effect it gives.

Now _THIS_ is what I’m talking about! Something about finding crazy crystals smacked off in the most remote corners of a parallel universe is very, very appealing to me. You can keep the idea of more trading, though. That’s the last thing my MineCraft experience needs.

I've felt the end is far too horizontal. There are so many things they can do with a sky dimension then having all the islands next to each other and not over one another

You should do a video about how the generated structures like desert and jungle temples should be upgraded since everything around it is being upgraded, and not it. And it’s become stale already for having so little generated structures in the world, and there’s barely any variety

The problem with speeding up elytra is it will not be friendly with players that can't load chunks fast enough for them to travel. That's why they attempted to reduce the speed and mechanics of it in the snapshots but decided to scrap it for a future update for more in-depth balancing.

The End should really use an update that increases it's variety, although it should still seem like an alien and barren environment, just with a bit of flare here-and-there.

Personally I had an idea for an end structure since the phantoms introduction, I imagine there could be end shipwrecks that are in pieces above the islands so you’d have to stack or pearl up, inside there would be an elytra fragment and if you got like 5 of these you could craft an elytra but, if you already own an elytra you could make a broad wing elytra with it this set of wings could be better for long distance flights but lack maneuverability. But there would be a guardian to the end shipwrecks, enter phantoms a second chance at an awesome mob idea this time being more strategic to fight, maybe even dropping an elytra related item upon death.

I personally dislike all your suggestions in this video, and actually dont want too big changes to the end but please hear me out : At the beginning of the video you explained what role the end plays. The other two demensions are easier to define: The Overworld is the Friendly live filled place, the Nether a dangerous , violent hellhole. the End on the other hand is a barren wasteland. And what most people quite dislike about the End is in my opinion one of its most fitting aspects: the fact that its so boring and empty. Its 99% made out of void and endstone, filled with vast island which all look the same, and extremly boring to travers, but isnt that the point? Isnt this what the end has been all about since it was added? Because if Mojang with the 1.9 update tried to preserve the feeling of the Emptieness , the void of the End, they sure did that. To me , filling the End with the colorfull landscapes you showcased in the video would destroy the wasteland feeling and athmosphere this Demension manages to capture so perfectly. Now to the suggestions. 1 the New "Biomes". Except Visualy, what do they add? All blocks there are more or less worthless, and at the end of the day they will sooner or later all end up like the End islands we have today, over the time when you find more and more of these Bloody Messes or Green/Purple Forrests the islands will again appear to all look the same, they ll blend together and nothing really will have changed. 2 the New Elytra changes. While sure , everyone would love new ways to kill mobs, or to make the Elytra easier to use, you have to admit that the Elytra is already pretty overpowered. Adding Upgrades to remove the penalty of flying into Objects would just make End game Gear even more unbalanced. You yourself made a video before, asking if MC became to easy. Just imagine how this effect would become worse. The Upgrades damaging Enemys would too be nothing but a small gimick , but not be very usefull overall. Why try to hit a Mob by flying into it and risking hitting the flor or getting hit, if you can just land an use your op sword. Also Gems arent a good idea. Even as rare as Netherrite, you ll propably find all Gems you would ever need on the first island you touch, since most players at most have around 5 Elys and would only need to find a couple gems in their entire game. Make them super rare to combat this, and getting gems will become a boring grind. The Giant as a Boss doesnt fit as well. First of a Zombie doesnt belong in the End and second as of yet fighting a Giant as hes implemented yet is very boring, as his attacks function just like the ones from normal zombies. The boss fight would just be a boring spam of arrows. Overall most of the Additions you made feel way to modlike and just like mods would just temporarely be interessting until they have just shifted the meta a Tier up and it will get boring all over again. Minecraft really doesnt need better gear, at least as long as it doesnt significantly increase the challanges to overcome. Also i think the biggest Problem with the end is the Endfight. In few games the endBoss is as passive as in Minecraft. Often, fighting the Dragon is either a Onecycle or spaming arrows. Most of the time he ll just let you destroy the Crystals and occasionally shoot Dragonbreath at you, thats it. The Dragon fight is what needs an update. A new model, way better animations and many more agressive attack paterns would be great. Overall wheb talking about changing the End we first need to talk about what we want the End to be. Shall it stay as the Barren wasteland or become a more vibrant fantastical place? Overall this is just my opinion and i hope i managed to stay objective. Id love to hear a reply from you. If you read till here, Thanks

I like how the end looks in Minecraft dungeons, it is so much more alive looking and visually appealing. I hope they bring some of that stuff over.

I understand your concerns for the end dimension and I wholeheartedly agree that it should be updated, but I also see the draw in a dimension that feels almost barren. Gives an empty feeling that has stuck with me since I first found out about it.

It’s a far more complex issue than what you’ve made it out to be in this video to be frank. First of all, an End Update is very far ahead in the game’s future. It is a late game set-piece and should wait until the rest of the game has been fleshed out. The journey to the end should be made more interesting. Second of all, the feeling of the end should remain somewhat samey. In some of my concepts, I add some spare vegetation and obsidian clusters to the End Isles to slightly shake up the appearance. Too much disruption such as constant, interesting biomes would be too much and ruin the aesthetic. A lot of the ideas presented here don’t really address the larger issue. The End is unique, but it’s unique in the vein that it’s too barren and theres little to no reason to return. However, over saturating the experience would just make it too similar to the Overworld (which should be rich with content). Giants have no place in the End, the Gateway Altars are an okay idea I guess? A redesign to the gateway would be preferred. Your Elytra Gem idea is okay in direction, but the current iteration needs some work. I really recommend you think about it a bit more, rethink the implementation, does it really need to be 3 Separate Ores? How would this benefit the player? Etc. For example, I have been working on a weapon concept that fires lasers. I’ve been theory crafting for a while and came up with a couple ways for it to be used for decoration and not just with Combat. Find ways for your Elytra Gem idea to have more applications outside of what are their current iteration. Again, it has potential, it just needed more time in the oven. So yes, I liked the echoes of your ideas, the direction was nearly there, but you just really need to think on this a little more. I have my own concept as to which I’ve spent a couple months on as of now, and I’m still not happy with it, thinking of redesigning a whole mob. But I won’t get into that, just give your ideas more thought and time.

I honestly feel like the end is fine the way it is. It is a really dead, abondened place where nothing survives. I'd even be in favour of less chorus fruit & endermen, just to make it feel more empty. Perhaps wind sounds, the player being blown away by wind and some visual effects would make that idea more appealing. That way, it really is the end of the player's legacy. There is nothing exciting left, it just really is a dead end.

"ok now your a couple weeks in with full netherite" -Me who has taken months of time to kill the ender dragon

I like the idea of adding gem slots to equipment, expand that out to the netherite equips for the late game players.

I like the video but I didn't personally feel like adding stuff that will make the elitra more powerful is a good idea because it's all ready pretty op

Great vid! While I’m here i also want to talk about how awesome it is to see how far you’ve come in such a short amount of time. I remember finding your channel when it didn’t have that many subs and I thought you had the potential to become the AntVenom of modern Minecraft KZfaq, and you’ve only proven me right. Absolutely incredible seeing your growth and I look forward to your videos in the future!

From what youve shown, I like nullscape since i like the idea of the end staying desolate but at least more interesting than current version End. That said, I’ve become used to not treating the End as a high-level/endgame area. For now, I can deal with not visiting the End often, but I would welcome changes to make the dimension more interesting.

I like the piercing and aqua enchanting idea, the gemstone stuff not so much, doesn't really hit the minecraft vibe for me. maybe you could add these as further enchantments. Bringing the warped forrest to the end is a really cool idea, would fit really well to the "lore" we have about it. Another truly hostile mob that spawns in these warped-end-forrests that is actually dangerous (somewhere between a zoglin and a revager) together with a new, none-renewable ressource (for whatever use) in those forrests would be interesting. Talking about checking seeds for structures, how about this: A new structure in the end, that does generate at locations calculated from informations in your seed, the location of your nether portals and the time you lit them, just as an example. That would be a really hard nut to crack for mapping tools, if possible at all, so people would have to actually go look for them, instead of just checking such mapping tools.

I think having end villages are a bit too much but there could be something like end ruins? could have potential lore tied to them along with being pretty much the Ends equivalent to the bastions in the Nether. Could have some pretty good loot stored in them maybe like the elytra enchantments you mentioned. The end bioms are a must i would say too since it would make the End seem ALOT more lively than it is now, Also if it's possible there could be new mobs in the style of enderman that could only spawn in the End giving more of a threat.

I’ve always imagined that The End would be much cooler if there was a progression beyond kill this, find that. It shouldn’t be so linear. Way back, I played AbyssalCraft and I think something similar where it’s structured and gets harder and eerier the deeper you go would be amazing.

Maybe with new mobs they could add passive mobs such as "chorus cows" that are basically cows that have eaten chorus fruit and teleport/give meat that can teleport you

I would really like something added to End Cities where you can teleport back to your spawn point. I’m tired of traveling thousands of blocks away from home, returning, and then having to walk through the explored parts all again if I wanna get out further.

The elytra gems idea sounds cool! But also seems like it would die off quickly cause once you have the gems you need for your elytra that now auto repairs why get more? As proposed it simply perpetuates the problem trying to be solved.

The end needs the same treatment as the nether did. It would be cool if the end had the same survive and thrive theme that the nether got, sure in the nether previously, you could survive, but you really couldn’t progress, in the end you can survive, but can you really make progress if you have nothing, not very well, or not at all in some cases.

Yes! It would be a pretty cool change for speedrunning as well, if they changed the main island anyway. At the moment the end fight is basically solved with strats like the 0 cycle and other optimisations. It would be awesome to see a completely new or at least somewhat different end fight. (Because tbh, even though the end fights are getting crazy fast right now, I'm kind of getting tired of them. I mean, they all look almost the same, especially since the terrain generation and fight is practically the same every time.

I feel like some good additions could come in from other mods, such as quark, which adds in a few new types of stone, including one called Myalite which spawns in massive egg-shaped blobs in the end. And on top of some obsidian spires, there’s myalite crystal in a spire pattern across the sky. These blocks vary in color between blue and magenta depending on where they are placed. Another good mod is Alex’s Mobs, which adds a rideable space pig, a bacteriophage which hunts those space pigs, and a passive variant of the Phantom, which can be tamed and grabbed onto with a lead, where it will then fly you around.

I really like the idea of adding gems (or maybe items crafted with gems) to elytras. The idea reminds me a lot of the Thaumic Augmentation mod which allows the player to augment their magical tools, weapons and elytra (!) with upgrades that can be customised, added and removed in the players crafting grid.

we get it! you want an end update!!! we've heard your tweets already lmao

i think bringing phantoms back to the end would be a great idea. They just need a massive overhaul so they dont just float and dive and be dumb. I genuinly think if they'd dive more straight/diagonal at ya it'd be alot more interesting rather than vertical. Those annoying creatures shouldnt be part of the overworld.

More vertical natural generation (higher floating islands that cannot be seen from normal height) is enough to make it a lot more interesting & it will also give Elytra more purpose.

For me the biggest hurdle for making the end useful is ease of getting in and out. The single portal at the world’s center makes the end a huge chore to navigate, and disincentives establishing any player builds out in the far islands. And since you need to fight the dragons every time you want to open a new gateway, you’re also disincentivized from building on the central island, in case it’s destroyed in future fights.

I feel the elytra gems would be a good addition but all the forest biomes make it feel too alive. A miniboss would work well though especially if they were guarding elytra gems

I always wanted the end update

The end should feel like an adventure the entire way through. It should be the hardest dimension where all the loot is hard to get and won't get too weak like the warden. Raiding an ancient city is not much easier at the end of the game. Elytras should not be usable in uncleared areas so you can’t just skip all mobs and get straight to the loot. Maybe you can get a separate yellow gem just for end travel. These gems could also be cool for armour and to balance them have each have pros and cons depending on your playstyle. (They should also fit to the armour trims.) Maybe there could be a type of phantom like mob hat protects some areas from using elytras and maybe you can outmanoeuvre them to make hem fall instead of fighting them normally. Another gem or redstone component like a laser detector would be cool or a way to rotate blocks. The sky could also have a space theme or a theme where there is no sun and maybe a black hole that can suck you up and spaghettify you when you fly too high. So I think another upgrade for netherite and maybe the elytra not as a new material would be one of the most important ideas. The biomes should be themed around the mobs. Maybe there’s no flying mobs because of my black hole idea and the phantoms are only at lower islands and turn upside down when he gravity of the black hope becomes stronger than the gravity of the end. If you’re not restricting flight with the elytra you could maybe make some black holes go past some islands but make them never touch or go near to too big groups of blocks so the island and bases are never destroyed. You could maybe even add gamma rays which could help obtain the laser detector by serving as a crafting process or some amplified redstone and maybe if you do something like steal some very strong loot a black or white hole comes as defense mechanism. Maybe there could be a structure containing a white or black hole or maybe even both as an experiment for teleportation. The end update has a lot of potential and we should hope that it’s not wasted. The obvious theme for the end is space but maybe there’s another cool theme. Edit: Different armour materials like diamond or iron could have more pros and cons. For balancing iron would have less protection than normal but it increases damage. Leather could increase mobility and at high non-material upgrades could maybe even get rid of most terrain hazards like lava or fall damage. Gold could increase the loot you obtain and get or make you not get targeted by most mobs or maybe do the opposite. For multiplayer it could also make you be able to heal players with gold tools. Chainmail armour could increase the effectiveness of potions and tipped arrows. All of these effects should only apply while wearing the armour so you can’t use multiple bonuses at once. You could maybe use multiple armour sets at once but if they aren’t full sets they might be much weaker. Edit 2: Maybe tools like pickaxe or axes could become faster but loose more durability and remove unbreaking and not mending because it wouldn’t be used then. If it’s faster a diamond pickaxe might not be able to mine obsidian anymore and if slower it could maybe have vein miner and give more resources from ores. Swords could change their range, damage and attack speed and maybe even give potion effects on players hit. The cons and pros of these gems or maybe modifiers could be more positive the less enchantments you have. Each tool could be more effective for different modifiers. Wooden tools could apply more potion effects, iron could have more range, gold could have more speed, diamond could bring more resources but decrease range and netherite could mine multiple blocks at the cost of overall stat decreases. Different tools could work better for the different modifiers as well. So the pickaxe would have the least range and hoes could apply more potion effects. Maybe you can add some stronger materials to the more common ones to make hybrids of the different materials. Maybe you would have to find a structure where 2 black holes take your tools and then they come combined out of a white hole.

I had the thought years ago that it would be cool to have some form of end ore. The idea I had regarding them is that they would generate at or near the bottom of the islands making them somewhat dangerous to mine.

This video was so well made! Good job

What i want the most is islands at different y levels.

I think if the end update does happen the end update should have three update pillars: 1. make the end interesting (biomes, mobs, maybe terrain height difference) 2.make the dragon fight harder and more interesting 3. add a reason to keep coming back (maybe a resource that is tied to a structure like blaze rods, amethyst, or a mob spawner or maybe a new resource like nether scraps [I think this resource should be armor "talents" or "addons" that give a unique addon ability or effect. [ It could look like netherite with smaller new colors and aesthetic features added to it])

Personally I like the idea of having phantoms spawn in the end, but no longer have then tied to sleeping, and only have them spawn in the outer end islands so as to make the journey to an end city more challenging

I could get into ravager-sized ender hounds. They could stay near one ender crystal in a cage and regenerate just like the dragon, but on the ground, and without the corner cracks for arrows. (to be clear, the hound would be right outside the cage, and for that reason it may be sensible to have a slightly longer effect range) You could have a biome with crystalline structures and one ender hound on each crystal of a certain size. It would have the benefit of being very difficult without elytra, but with elytra and bows, it could be much more manageable.

These are some great ideas! I especially like the Elytra gems one, as it gives a lot of depth to the Elytra in a creative way, while also not fundamentally changing it. I also have two ideas I'd like to share. - Different "types" of endermen. I think it'd be interesting to see some endermen adapt to the conditions of The End differently, and end up becoming different from the normal endermen as a result. Some of them could be completely passive (maybe those could be the inhabitants of the End Villages you mentioned), others could be completely aggressive (maybe even attacking the other endermen, like how illagers attack villagers), and so on. - Changing the spawn conditions of the Phantom. I know people hate this mob, but I think if its spawn conditions were changed, it could be a great mob. My main problem with them is that the way phantoms start to spawn is literally a way to punish players for being good at survival and not abusing the overpowered item that is the bed. I think instead of spawning after not sleeping for too long, the Phantom should spawn after sleeping too many nights in a row. Other changes necessary for this new spawn condition to work would be that phantoms don't burn on sunlight and that they can spawn at any time of the day, only not spawning inside smaller spaces (so that they don't spawn inside people's houses or something like that). I guess some people would still be annoyed by the Phantom even with these changes, but I personally would feel satisfied with these changes.

I think it would be sick if the end is a vertical and horizontal biome where it goes up forever until you find some massive stronghold castle thing. I also want new blocks for the end, and harder mobs/bosses. Maybe it can get harder the higher you go in the end. The end could also be more of a space asteroid.

Honestly, I would like to see a Purpur stone that spawns in the End Islands similarly to how Calcite spawns in mountains or around Geodes. Just adding one or two types of stone and a type of "tree" as well as a skulk biome would really help make the End more entertaining to traverse than the bland white islands we currently have.

Personally I want a new dimension. We have Earth Purgatory Hell So why don’t we get heaven? The boss could be a griffin or bird like creature and angel like mobs could spawn there.

They could use the end mobs from Minecraft Dungeons, they’re really cool and unique, not to mention the endersent, or that caterpillar monster as mini bosses.

once i started playing with mods and i have to admit that end can be really fun to play around when there are really difficult dungeons (i mean mobs that can 4-shot you in prot 4 netherite, so you need a really good setup) and the loot is actually worth exploring, especially because the modpack also had some really expensive endgame items (but still not op enough to not make it feel like vanilla), also a great thing was an addition of ancient tomes, which are basically super enchanted books that allow you to go above the max level, so exploration was even more interesting some ppl say that fortune 4 would be overpowered, but if you consider the difficulty to get it when compared to normal enchanting... i think it would be balanced

I like the idea of something like the Better End Mod, which makes it so the eyes needed to activate the portal to only be found in dungeons, preventing players from rushing the end

At the very minimum, having renewable Elytra in some way, perhaps through an End equivalent of villager trading. With those changes to Elytra from the 1.18 experimental snapshots, they could be implemented alongside this kind of update. By all means, new crops and trees would be welcome additions, especially if they have unique qualities.

Let's get MrEpic to 300k before 2022

They could give a use for the dragon egg finally. Suggestions: -The Dragon egg is no longer a one-of-a-kind item, you'll get a new one every time you kill the dragon -You can combine in a crafting table a Dragon egg, a beacon and 4 netherite ingots to aquire some kind of "super beacon" -The "super beacon" has double the radius of a normal one, more effects available, better effects for the existing ones(speed 3, haste 3 etc), and the ability to have 2 effects active at one time -with the "super beacon" you can select also harmful effects (blinding, slowness, poison, levitation) , could be a cool way to troll friends or potentially use it as WEAPON OF MASS DESTRUCTION!!! (obviously the "super beacon" has to be balanced in some way, maybe the cost of choosing an effect would be a block of diamond instead of the regular ones and ingots)

I always loved the elytra ever since it came out. If they would be adding an update for it then they could add a first person detail while flying. You know how on consoles and bedrock while fling the camera sort of rotates? That would be a fine detail to see and not have like just a dead look while in 3rd person you are flopping and rotating in the air.

I'd rather they make a new dimension then mess with the end, the potential and usefulness of the end having a vast space of nothing is rarely utilized by the community, but the amount of redstone contraptions you can make there with minimal lag is amazing

The only issue with the gems is that elytras are already overpowered enough, we don't need them any more powerful

My problem with the end is that it doesn't feel very end game tier. Unlike other games, Minecraft can be beaten very quickly, without much of a challenge. I always felt like killing the dragon was the beginning of the late game, where I pursue the side content. I have seen other people feel the same way I have. Before Mojang updates the end, they should update the game's progression to the end. Maybe my beefing up that dragon significantly, so any future items they add have more importance to the fight.

They could implement tinted glass in one of the end biomes and make the elytra item frame a glow frame. Your idea of the gems to enhance the wing velocity and other features is pretty good, though I really think they should be useful for other things that pertain to the overworld or nether.

Great video with some cool concepts! The end definitely needs more biomes, and possibly some new loot beyond just Elytras! Maybe a new weapon? New enemies? And as for the giant idea... Consider; Giant, bent-over enderman with constantly unhinged jaw and much bulkier arms, somewhere in size between say, the Mutant Enderman from the old mutant mobs mod, and the giant zombie.

I couldnt agree more with you, i wanted a new end update since 1.13

A big bonus for builders like me is basically endless building space. But the environment is ugly and boring, the skybox is literally just black and has no effects, there's no inclement weather, and the End is just a dangerous and risky place to have a base. Not to mention there's only one exit. It's not like the Nether where you can have a solid secondary base with all kinds of XP and item farms, spread out across multiple vastly different biomes, that also gives a huge bonus to your map mobility.

Notch said more dragons were going to be added during his time, so I wish you could get smaller, weaker and non tamable dragon pets from the dragon egg. The dragons could come in different colours (except black) They would also be a great endgame reward and you'd have to beat the dragon many times to get more for your friends.

Note: I use the end constantly. I have multiple farms in there. My concrete farm, which the main reason i go there, obsidian farm, wither rose farm, bee farm, carpet shulker farm, enderman farm, melon farm. The end is also where I build most of my map art since the large void is handy for map making with no obstructions. SciCraft blitz has made an endstone farm in the end, and there are a lot of reason to go to the end too. It's up to personal preference on how the end is used. There are plenty of reason I can go to the end, not just 2 like you mentioned. My examples are just a few of many.

I hope the end gets a nether-esque makeover. They did a great job with the nether, especially the new forests, no one could make up something like that. The end has always been a scary place for me and even then it feels pretty boring.

A warped forest, but with minor adjustments, should be a rare biome in the end. It makes sense because endermen spawn in them in the nether. Also I think the enderling mobs and music from the minecraft dungeons echoing void dlc should be added

i really like the elytra gem idea! i hope mojang implements something similar in the future, maybe even for all tools, but having there be specific upgrades for elytras would be best since, y'know, the end kinda sucks as is and elytras are a bit unique. reminds me a bit of modular tool mods like tinker's construct & tetra

Yes, this exactly needs to be the next update. I love all of the ideas.

Problem "only reason to go to the end is to get a couple of items" Solution "lets add more items" Wont that lead to your initial problem all your doing is delaying it by adding items. What happens when you get all the gems get all the enchantments it just turns back to the same old end.

i like the new structures, elytras and ores ideas, but i feel like the end is very empty and "dead" and i honestly i kinda like that vibe, it makes the end feel so different from the nether and the overworld

A The End update is a pretty cool and necessary idea, adding everything you said in the video, including new blocks and new mobs related to the dimension. Another cool idea for it is making the Ender dragon fight more difficult, like giving him more HP, more attacks and deals more damage. Also, give him full blast resistance, this way you couldn't kill him by just using beds or respawn anchors. Even because, what's the sense of a mob, considered the final boss in the game, being easily defeated by using beds?
