I loved the idea from last episode of an evil force or entity breaching the wall (simular to what happend with “the drill” breaching the earth kingdom Outer wall in avatar (last airbender)
Would be sweet for the river to be filtered through the wall, like a treatment plant, so that the clean rivers of the rest of the server came from the sulfur river being purified.
For the Giga Truck, you could make a custom disc of a beacon or other noise for the ambient background music, that plays for a duration of time and is activated by a skulk sensor (probably a calibrated one), so when you open the hatch the custom disc will play! That was the thought I had and got exited about [:
Dang! I remember first watching this when I was 19. Now I am 30. I have since moved on from watching Minecraft youtubers but dang I LOVED watching your survival series and I came to rewatch this nostalgic first episode. The stories in life you told, the monument for the freaking slab... and stuff in the buttholio XD. Thanks for the years of amazing memories in your survival LP Rendog! I know we never made it to the Enderdragon here but I loved the journey as you finished Grannydogs monument! Your LP inspired me and my brothers to make a theme park in Minecraft. Sadly we lost Craftworld to a save bug last year after 10 years. Thanks for the many memories RenDog!!!
the gigatruck - “Looks like a fish, moves like a fish, steers like a cow.” its the only thing going through my head when u called it a rickety spaceship
Hermicraft really inspires the average player. When i started, i didn't date to try something that tells a story. You especially helped with saying tell a story to stay inspired. From then on I've made a pirate base reclaimed from ruins of a naval fort and now working on a tree world where the buildings are part trees.
Ren, may I suggest for your skin that you design a Gigacorp space suit? Perhaps with a custom hat for a helmet to protect yourself from the toxic atmosphere of HC-10 as you acclimate. Maybe the helmet would only be needed outside of the boundary of your biome - the squirtipods could be making the air safe for you to breathe when you are inside the area. PS: I personally am really enjoying the lore developing out of a "logical" timeline. It really feels like you're bringing us along with your creative process and I really like the honesty in your approach.
Ren, I’ve studied to be a storyteller (writer) for over two decades now, and I want to tell you that these last three episodes have been some of the most masterful storytelling I’ve ever heard. Thank you so much for making these episodes and sharing these stories with us!
Thoughts on GVerse stucture: It would be cool if Bedrock/Java are seperate parallel UNIVERSES, instead of superclusters, and the glitches that power java hyperdrives don't work in Bedrock, so most people don't go there. But GigaCorp is sending slower-than-light, unmanned probes through a - um - dimensional transfer thingy? - to try and find worlds and develop bedrock-compatible FTL travel. It also leaves the superclusters as something that now only determine if you do or don't have mods. Plotwise this allows for more "frontiers" style plot for you or other MCYTers who follow the GVerse plot (maybe even me, if i finally get round to setting up my channel).
Thoughts on the structure of the Gigaverse: I think that it would be cool Java and Bedrock Edition aren't merely distinguished by superclusters, and that's to distinguish what mods are available. Instead, they could be whole parallel UNIVERSES in the gigaverse, explaining the differences in gameplay. It could be that the hyperdrives used by most only function in java, where the glitches that power them exist, but gigacorp is sending unmanned slower-than-light probes through a - umm, dimension thingy - into the Bedrock universe to explore and maybe develop a new hyperdrive. Plotwise this gives Ren or other MCYTers (maybe even myself, if I ever get round to actually setting up a channel) an oppurtunity to do a more "frontier" plotline.
Such a neat feature for your base biome. Small observation…at 32:40 you are standing on the wall and I can see white in the middle of the left engine…maybe put a grey or black block there or a block of magma.
Tbh one thing that comes to my mind when new planets or new biomes is a hege glowing tree which is connected to the core of the earth. which is one of the main sources of the power which comes from the other plants.
I'm really enjoying your custom biome, lore and Gigacorp builds, Ren. They fit so nicely together to make such a unique minecraft base that feels full of stories and nicely complements both the alien aspects and the futuristic technologies.
Late as heck but I just started laughing so hard because I immediately thought of the phrase butt munching at 3:10 So I just screamed "Butt muncher hahhahahha" at the top of my lungs help
i love the lore! its like you arrived first in exploratory sent out a signal saying exploration is viable and signaled the giga truck down- the giga truck has everythingyou need for proper terraforming and researching and exploratory missions like a mobile base! love it!
With that bit of added lore in mind. I like to think that this area was specifically chosen for research because of its abundant diversity in flora and fauna in such close proximity to each other. Further, Giga Corp plans to profit/advance from their findings.. somehow
