Minecraft Tips #3: Building or Redstone?

by Finn and Nicolas, Grade 6

In the past articles, we’ve taught you the best farm, and how to survive your first night in minecraft. Now, we take on a somewhat proportional idea to the best farm article. Redstone, or building?

Before we go right into the, lets give you a basic definition of both in the game. Redstone is basically the powersource and can power multiple things to do multiple things. If you use a piston/multiple pistons, you can make an auto door. But with building, you can make more majestic things, and limits your imagination, although not quite the same with redstone.

Me, Nicolas Romano, will be defending building. There’s over 300 blocks and over 250 of them are good looking. Although 250 blocks may not seem like too many, redstone only has about 15 components. With these blocks, you can make almost anything! You have leaves, vines and more for nature, 7 types of wood for houses, over 10 stones for more detail, There’s even mineral blocks and bars. With all these options, you can make all sorts of things with time. Although a building project can take a day to 2, redstone projects can take up to a year. This concludes my part. Finn, Take it away!

I, Finn, will be defending redstone. Nick makes a good point, but for some people (Like me), I prefer function over looks. Just hearing the redstone work when you spent so long on it is so satisfying. Even just hearing any redstone is satisfying, it’s even better with noteblocks. Not only that, the blocks look good and you just aren’t limited to redstone parts, as you can spice it up with blocks like Concrete. Take Sahara for example. It took so long to build, it looks really nice, and is extremely satisfying for your purchase to come from a giant redstone machine. Therefore, I’ll be with redstone.

For extra proof, we conducted a survey to see which thing people like more. But, to find the results, you will need to read my next article.
