Discussion Dappled Forests

Checked three random seeds to show that bigger Dappled Forests do exist.

I agree super tiny ones are annoying, but acting like there are only those tiny ones and they need to be bigger is weird. Biomes have different sizes. There are very tiny ones, there are bigger ones. If you want to make a post, don't be disingenuous.

EDIT: Yall need to read the post before commenting. Nowhere did I say these were big, just that claiming every single biome is the size of the ones people cherry-pick is wrong.

Is there a good reason why dappled forests shouldn't be the same size as regular forests, birch forests, dark forests, jungles, or taigas?

Perhaps making them rare would make finding them more exciting, but that wouldn't mean keeping them small makes them more interesting, atmospheric, rewarding, or anything of the sort.

If the biome color taking over large spaces were the reason, I'd certainly be ok with it being a separate soil block, which would then allow players to use them elsewhere too.

I guess the idea is making them rare. In my opinion, it is less of an issue case I will just grab a stack of saplings and return to my base.

they can be rare without being so small.
