Build Yharnam In Minecraft: Cathedral Ward

About a month ago, I posted a thread at https://forums.wynncraft.com/threads/yharnam-in-minecraft.243456/
The build I started was roughly modeled after a game called Bloodborne, made by FromSoftware. It's one of my favorite games, and I wanted to put it into minecraft.

Now, nearly a month later, the second area of bloodborne is done, and It's time to shamelessly show off some pictures of it.

Spoiler: A little Cathedral Ward lore, for the uneducated and interested folk.

Cathedral Ward sits on top of the very room that supplies the old blood to the rest of yharnam, and it also connects all major areas of the city together, forming a sort of hub. Cathedral Ward is the place where the Healing Church resides, and on nights of the hunt, they close their doors to the rest of Yharnam completely, leaving them to deal with the beastly scourge by themselves. The Healing Church is not the benevolent, altruistic organization that any regular yharnamite would be lead to believe. Most of the time they spend doing experimentations on the poor folk of yharnam, and they also lead the conspiracy of the beast scourge. They were the ones that first realized that the blood they were handing out freely to yharnamites was the very thing that caused them to turn into vicious beasts. They originally did nothing to stop it, using the Hunter's Workshop to eliminate the beasts quietly in the night. Only when their problem got too out of control, did they publicize the hunt. They're essentially the bad guys in the story.

This area was a little smaller than Central Yharnam, so it surprisingly only took 1 month to complete, whereas cy took almost 4 to 5.

This iteration of the city has every landmark from the real game, and are all connected in exactly the same way. Oedon Chapel does lead to the church workshop which does lead to the abandoned old workshop as well as the orphanage and the upper cathedral ward. Just as well, the orphanage does lead to the lumenflower garden, and that does lead to ebrietas, and its all in the tiny cathedral ward.

Anyway, here are some pictures, because I know thats why you're here: https://imgur.com/a/O86JM79

holy shit dude, how long did this take?

 

map download?

 

currently, the map is on the wynncon server, so if you wanna take a tour of it, you can send me your ign and ill whitelist you as a guest.

its been a passion of mine for about half a year now :)

 

Wow, how long did it take to build all of this?
I love the build :D

One small critique though: Everything looks a bit too gray, imo a bit more contrast would do nicely - it's hard to tell all the intricate details apart from the walls because it's all the exact same colour. Maybe try using darker stone bricks for the walls? (Seeing that you're using the Wynn RP, the monster egg versions of blocks have much darker textures than the normal versions)

 

You guys should do Eleum Loyce next if you plan on doing another soulborne project!

 

actually whenever i make a wall segment its a mix of 97:1 and 97:2, both of which are monster egg blocks (stone brick and cobble). just as well, they're always in a stripe pattern, so they're easily discernible from the actual buildings. but i appreciate the critique, and if you have more id love to hear! (also its been 6 months overall, and its been a blast)

________________________________

Thats a good idea, but i really wanted to do something from ds3 next. Despite the fact that most of the areas are trash, i think it'd be really cool to see something like Lothric Castle, or the ringed city, or the painted world of ariandel in minecraft. I mean, as far as I know, no one else has ever made a real replica of the soulsborne games in minecraft, which i hope makes mine the first of its kind.

 

dude, the entire world of ds1 is all continuous and interconnected. that would be so fucking sick

 

yeah, but that would be insanely difficult to reproduce. I actually played ds1 for the first time a few months ago and it was amazing. its actually one of my long term goals as of now. but right in this moment i wanna work more on yharnam, as bb is my favorite game of all time.

 

Damn that's insane
