i found your channel just today and i mean it, i feel like you're one of the most calming minecraft youtubers out there. no screaming, no bright effects, just minecraft. i love it.

[@deeeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

Same here

[@REALsequel]

I couldn't agree more ! =D

Another bonus tip. On top of the mountain peak you built, if you use snow blocks it could give a reason for the stream to exist. Kind of letting your terraforming tell a story of why the stream is there. Still a great job as always Marloe you inspire me constantly.

[@pedrovinicius3981]

Geologically correct stream in Minecraft

[@joey3810]

This is proper constructive criticism and appreciation.

[@GretgorPooper]

Marloe is exactly the Minecraft channel we need. No fake SMP drama, no raging over bedwars, just a dude enjoying Minecraft at his own pace. I love this man.

[@The_red_commander]

[@lucasleistner]

It's been many, many years since I've found comfort in playing Minecraft. After discovering your channel today, I find a calm inspiration to pick up and play again. Bravo my friend, thank you.

[@mazzucac]

My girlfriend has been begging me for over a year to play Minecraft with her. I found this channel two days ago, and have been binging his videos. Yesterday I played Minecraft for 6hrs. My drive is back! And my girlfriend is of course happy. Thanks to Marloe!

[@PickledKyucumber]

terraforming is very calming for me, but terraforming while watching one of your videos makes it even more calming

[@gg-ps1vz]

can anyone recommend more channels like this?? doesn’t even have to be Minecraft but i love this calm atmosphere :)

[@retrohug]

Well, you've found the most calming voice but I also love Codyofearth. He's new but same lovely vibe 😊

[@gg-ps1vz]

@@retrohug wonderful!!! exactly what im after. thank u :)

[@CS4V4GE223]

I’d recommend FlowState, he does really great builds and his channel has very relaxed vibes.

[@gg-ps1vz]

@@CS4V4GE223 omg perfect! thanks man

[@JumpinJuju]

Thank you for taking the time and effort to even try to explain how to terraform. I have done some minimal terraforming in my worlds and it's nice to see that I have been doing it very similar to what you showed us here. Thanks again and keep posting videos!

[@OG1GTP]

I subscribed after watching your Dam video, now I'm building a dam in my survival world. Thank you for the inspiration.

[@Mrflightradar]

[@lannifincoris6482]

Thank you, for the new video. When I fill up holes, I always fill them fully. So there is no space for mobs to spawn.. it ones happend, I forgot just as much for zombies to spawn somewhere under my house. I dug up the hill again, because the growling drove me crazy 😂

[@PurpleCBR]

I struggle with my terraforming so this was very helpful. Thank you! Great video as always. ☺💜

[@petercarioscia9189]

I prefer making "water features" where applicable. Instead of terraforming, ill fillon big holes with water, throw out some bone meal, add some kelp and sea cucumber, add some leaves around and voila, ugly terrain hole is a nice lil pond. Build a lake house or a fishing hut, done.

[@chocothechip]

2:51 absolutely insane shot , madness on another scale

[@BryceFletch]

every time I watch one of your videos i get the itch to play Minecraft again. thanks for all the great content!

[@diurtydantv8061]

I don't do anything crazy I just smooth out the already existing terrain but it still always looks wrong.

[@sudesastrosamajestad586]

amazing tips. Easy to follow and easy to build a skill upon. This can be one of the best "tutorials" out there.

[@protozoanpro]

Great video, I too find myself always getting carried away with terrain building/shaping that I forget to build actual structures haha

Can you please provide a tutorial for your survival base 🙏as it is the best one I have ever seen

[@neeshabun]

New subscriber and I really enjoyed this style of tutorial! Honestly, you could have made a much longer version or multipart version and I would have still watched it. Really happy this was recommended to me.

[@Riceking10]

I, for one, will watch anything you make. But videos like this are great. I hope you make more

[@irideburton]

you are such a good youtuber and builder :)

[@joelhohle455]

Once again a great video 👍 Keep it up, Marloe !!

[@grannyswatchingu7060]

You explained well and I understood it all. Thank you for the help

[@petercarioscia9189]

I just hate terraforming tbh. I'll do it, if I have to, to achieve the look I want....but it's so tedious. I've levelled multiple chunks from craggy, hilly and "broken" to nice rolling hills, converted entire Stony shore islands to lush green islands and converted a map sized area from plains/beach to desert for the sake of themed build areas (all survival) and no one notices lol. They see a desert peninsula, and think "oh yea, that's always been that" same for the stony shore to Green Island. Oh they notice the builds I put on those terrains. Idk it's like...defeating. Maybe if I made them LOOK terraformed, but regular terraforming is already tedious enough. I can't imagine making them ✨artful✨ terraforming.

[@petercarioscia9189]

Ugh and LIGHTING everything UNDER the terraforming, so I don't accidentally create a massive mob spawner. Or having to go back in to light up areas I missed because zombies are moaning under my lovely rolling hills.

[@BLET_55artem55]

​@@petercarioscia9189or you could just make a dungeon of sorts underneath these hills so it would add even more character to the world

[@petercarioscia9189]

@@BLET_55artem55 i had honestly never thought of that. That's actually a really cool idea! Thank you!

[@leonardo9259]

"ugh I hate it" *Does it for an entire map*

[@petercarioscia9189]

@@leonardo9259 actually 9 maps. I have a short on my channel of my flying through that world.

[@extremelyhaarsh]

Perfect timing for this video, i was struggling about the same issue. Thanks Marloe ❤ for the video

[@SillyPuppyPrincess]

Hmm, kinda surprising that people struggle with that so much. Terraforming is probably my favorite thing to do in Minecraft. ^-^ But maybe it is because i do it so much that it got to that point.

[@DC-pm9lc]

You've got to do a video showing all the builds you've done in this world since the caves & cliffs update when you started this world.

[@Ramm1602]

I think that adjacent to water blocks should be gravel, not stone. If you look closely at the real mountain rivers, their beds are almost consist from movable rock that looks like a combination of gravel and cobblestone. In my opinion stone is too smooth for that role. Remember old Minecraft when all shores were from gravel? Me too.

[@saphlora8739]

Thank you!!!

[@hawkar1196]

Man I appreciate your videos you’re an absolute player, I created a village which your custome village tutorial, thanks for everything❤

Hi Marloe I'm your new subscriber and I love watching your videos and your building guide is awesome.😊😊😊

[@grigmax]

i love your videos dude

[@retrohug]

Hugely useful thank you!

[@gairethnelson]

1:59 me gathering every structure in my creative world with a structure_block to place in my 1000×1000 block walled off area and doing that exact same terraform thing. Every structure and most all biome blended naturally together. (Been working on it a while, the world uses the desert oasis template from way back when)

[@A-J17]

Loved think video, found it quite helpful for myself, as I've just started to dabble into terraforming, by any chance is there a tutorial for that water wheel building

[@karenmartinez7962]

Any help on terriforming helps a lot.....the mountain helps too.....i have to try that with the center point and four sides like that

[@dayV-uz7jp]

Some great pointers here!

[@catkingforgets1431]

I remember watching when you were making tektopia vids. Happy you still make vids

[@EnjiMC]

terraforming is easier for me than when it comes to building actual buildings. though i do agree i still need to practice more terraforming. but when it comes to what i'm better at, it'd be terraforming

[@JustADuck66]

Love it.

[@BrownHawk84]

that was great.

[@leonardoantonucci3080]

the mountain id very goofy, but still a great video

[@Bloxysaurus]

Great video!

[@MrBulbasaurlover]

How did the water flow from the dam and fill up the lake in your most recent video? I have never seen MC water work like that and I didn't find anything pertaining to it in your modlist. It was super cool.

[@Majid-w5g]

300 k subs nice 🎉

[@SSI_Bastien]

Minecraft school in asmr?!? NO WAY sub

[@AviusL]

I like hearing you talk. Good video :)

[@johnmorris8621]

It is hard to explain terraforming, but we got some work with water and some subtle and more extreme height variations. Keep up the good work

[@edgehy]

could you make a tutorial to get that fog on multiplayer please? i'd really appreciate that.

[@jonathangutierrez7282]

hi friend I like your videos you are a amazing

[@JackHuston-o8g]

What leaf texture pack do you use?

[@DC-pm9lc]

Can you perhaps trap a wardern in the Monolith? I know it's very difficult but it's going to be worth it. The wardern suits the theme.😊

[@RixesPuffs]

I personally always think that my terraforming is good, but, everyone who sees it says it's dogwater 😭

[@LLLadySSS]

I hate terraforming. Sometimes I spend HOURS in creative creating a build and then I can finally build it in survival but... NOPE! Gotta terraform first! Ugh.

[@Marklikesminecraft]

What's the fog mod name?

[@sebastianperdomo9964]

PLS make a medieval boat house I cant build large ships for shit😭😭😭😭🙏🙏

Caught the video as I'm terraforming my minecraf world! Although I'm in the stage of minning down an entire mountain 😅 that's a little more of a brain off kind of terraforming lol

[@BLET_55artem55]

You could've made it into something cooler like as if it was shattered by a meteor or it's hollow with a giant cave in it too. But hey, you do you

[@ZenithZealot_7573]

This was really helpful. Thanks a ton!!

[@thesmoog734]

Excellent video mate. I don’t think there’s much here that I didn’t already know, but sometimes being reminded of it (especially in a way that isn’t just shouting about "HOW AWESOME THIS LOOKS!") brings you back to the overall goal, rather than fretting over whether every block has just the right detail. Thanks!

[@jane.the.derg.dies.mp3]

I started working on some hand done mountains and managed to not think about it and it’s been turning out great
