I tried to make a modern house. It's still a wip, so i'll post pics when i'm done. It's mainly comprised of a shit ton of glass walling with sandstone lining, with wood interior.

Seems to be nice. Also Skul: I don't like peaceful :3

I try to stick with normal difficulty, but it's near impossible even with beds to make a house like this with mobs. I'll be turning it to normal as soon as i get my nether portals situated.

Has anyone else noticed the terrain generation is alot... more alpha-esque again since 1.4? Ever since the update every new area i've explored is like, "holy shit alpha nostalgia" terrain.

LIke seriously, look at this next pic, and tell me that this is not just bat shit insane. This is almost exactly the same as alpha generation.
