Following a similar generation logic as river biomes, but a road with a more consistent width instead. Ideally connecting two to three (or more) villages. Would be a neat place to have smaller structures spawn along it’s length too. It’s utility as a road for travel is clear but also there’s something rather romantic about following a road, IMO. The idea that the road leads somewhere. The idea that you can build something along this road and know it connects to something else.
On multiplayer servers I imagine you might see bases naturally clustering along them, plus provides an easy avenue for new players to travel out of spawn areas.
what would be neat would be if they actually added atmosphere to the biomes instead of dead and lifeless with no movement. try the game Vintage Story sometime. that game the grass and leaves etc blow harder or not at all based on the wind and storms etc. seasons etc all would make the game feel alive.
