An AI Worldbuilding company has cherrypicked you as why human worldbuilders should be replaced; what are your crimes?
Mine:
- Human worldbuilders build up beautiful settings just to lure and Rickroll you into believing what they believe.
- Human worldbuilders use their settings to make fun of people IRL e.g by naming sophont ships after personal drama.
- Human worldbuilders prioritize hard science and originality over proper story and mock anyone who goes below them.

What Nether diamond and iron source would you add?
Chest loot indicates them being available natively there.
"Source" doesn't have to be ore, could also be some way to make them renewably with nether blocks.

Have an FTL sink, or FTL will be overused in ugly ways.

Nerfing elves to be neither strictly worse nor better than everyone per-unit?
How do you do it in your setting, or what ideas do you have?
My ideas:
- Elves are ambush predators, not persistence ones. While they can cast powerful short spells, humans can cast spells longer.
- Humans prioritize longevity and performance over elven gimmick abilities, or vice versa.
