Etho Plays Minecraft - Episode 554: Linked Up 

Wilson has now been demoted to "the tomagachi pet"

There is no greater joy than watching an Etho video appear in your inbox

i still can’t get over how good etho is with redstone. this man just creates new redstone inventions like nothing.

Etho: I was immature back then Also Etho: "Smelter? I hardly know her!" "We can mine leaves faster with your mom"

Etho is the only youtuber i've consistently watched over the past 10 years, it's honestly amazing to be able to watch such a long term series progress and I hope it goes on for a lot longer. Thank you so much for making content, I wish you all the best.

I love how this world is filled with new stuff among old stuff. Over the years it's been like the evolution from the stone age to the computer age. EATS roads, the UFO cow farm, the silverfish farm, the piston conveyor belt blaze farm, Wilson, the Nexus, EnderPorters.

This is the only game where you can say “solid water” and actually make sense.

“Oh that was a bit snarky. I was a bit immature back then” Says the man who still makes consistent yo mama jokes.

Hey Etho, I was wondering if you would give us a glimpse into your RU-vid interests? Do you watch other Minecraft RU-vidrs consistently? Do you watch other video game content besides Minecraft? Do you enjoy any non-video-game related content? Anyway, thank you for the amazing episode!

Minecraft: Etho be Slabin' Among Us: Etho be Stabin'

Hey Etho. You spend so much time building up your infrastructure in your world and then hardly ever show it in use. To me this makes it seem like lots of the projects aren’t useful because we never see you use it. During the world tour I was surprised at how often you said you used your farms. Do you think you could include quick little montages of you gathering resources for your projects. I think it would make your farms seem much cooler to see them in regular use. If this is too much work I understand and keep up the great content!

Etho! Take it as easy as you like! As long as if you’re enjoying yourself, I’ll enjoy anything you do. As for possibly bringing back the speed challenges; that sounds like a total blast! Those are some of my favorite videos of yours, and seeing you do more interesting, creative challenges as fast as you can would be a joy - especially with the new game updates and your new knowledge. Whatever idea you had for with the nether sounds super groovy as well! Great video, see you next time! :)

The only thing better than an etho video is one that is less than 10 seconds old, posted at the most perfect time, and you already have your snacks. Thank you Etho, for the 554 episodes, here's to *another* 500+!

Crimson keep is still a real cool project, there’s still lots of idea to do on the project. Maybe a strider dock lmao

I've never thought of something like a Falling Edge Monostable Observer Extender, but that's just something we have now. Neat.

I honestly can’t believe I’ve been watching Etho consistently for 8 years now. A guy you’ve never met before really can have a huge impact. Thanks man.

etho could upload paint drying and i’d still watch the whole thing

Personally, I am quite interested on how you plan to develop the Crimson Keep. Of course, I would be entertained regardless of how you spend the episode. But on another note, I'm curious which update you think benefitted Minecraft the most. Whether it's from a personal interest perspective, or maybe from the way it affected the community as a whole. Regardless, thanks for always making such quality content!

Hey Etho You play lots of non-Minecraft games but seem reluctant to upload them on your main channel, would you consider making an Etho2/Etho-block channel where you upload Among Us, MC Dungeons or any other game you play on the side? I love your humour and really would like to see you play more of those games, you got me into Scrolls and hope to see more from you. P.S what do you think about having an already powered rail track? No lever or RS block required.

15:35 I'd like to speak on behalf of maybe not all of us, but a very large margin of us, when I say, I don't care what you do I like watching you play and build because it"s relaxing, fun and I get to learn new things as well, because of this as long as you are having a good time and are not getting bored of something keep going with it as we will watch it and enjoy it all the same.

Etho, do you think Minecraft is headed in a good direction? In terms of updates and new ‘content’ being added. If no, what would you do to preserve the community and nature of the game?

The chemistry and years of friends in the team Canada videos really shows between you guys, I've personally always loved every single video you've made with Beef and Pause and I really miss you 3 teaming up to beat a map and watch Pause struggle to stay alive

I think its obvious what must be done with the last wall near the guardian farm: a chocolate island mural with a collection system for the kelp, Zelda tune and all. Bring a few memories back into this world.

Team Canada is such a good nostalgia trigger. I remember watching every single one of those from the very beginning. Loved them all.

I hope Etho knows how much he improves everyone's day when he makes a video. The quality, interest, and sheer enjoyability are always welcome.

16:53 They turn back red when hit again with lightning??? You learn something new every day I tell ya.

The EnderPorter has to be one of my favourite functional projects of recent episodes for sure. I'm so happy they finally made it implementable.

Etho, have you managed to get the achievement "how did we get here" yet? If not, I think that'd be a cool episode idea that doesn't require as much offcamera grinding but would be pretty fun to go through the logistics of making it possible to get every single potion effect at once!

Etho, it was shown that the warden is able to kill the wither with ease. What are your thoughts on completely afk wither farms?

I feel bad for etho he doesn’t know the amazing feeling of when etho posts. PS omg this blew up thx people

Hey Etho, you've gotten really good at making note block music and I like how you use it as background/transition music in your videos. I think it could be a cool challenge for you to create theme music for your let's play. For example you could have a specific 10 second theme when you transition to the Crimson Keep, the End, the Man Cave, etc.

I know as busy as Etho is, it would be difficult to squeeze in another series but a Start in the Nether Run type of mini-series would be cool to see. Thanks Etho. I really enjoyed the video

I'd love to see more on the Crimson Keep.

When I see an Etho video, I click

I used to watch your videos religiously back when the Let's Play way around 250. Things changed and I haven't played minecraft or watched your videos much since then. But i spent the last few days catching up on all your projects and I can't believe I ever stopped watching. Thanks for making great content, all these years later.

Man, that reverse ender porter is genuinely just really neat. Simple and fun and clever. I love it.

Hey Etho, have you thought about making a second channel? I know you only post super high quality content on this channel so I would love to have a second channel for other games like Among US or Minecraft Dungeons or other minimally edited videos. That could also be a good place to post the decked out runs you don’t have time for in the main videos.

Etho is a true redstone/ minecraft genius! If you read this by chance, i truly love your videos and personality

Etho I remember 8 years ago when I saw your video killing the ender dragon and loved it. It’s been years since I’ve been to your channel and it’s so cool to see how much you’ve grown. It’s awesome seeing you on hermitcraft and how much your world has changed. That world tour was so nostalgic for me and I want to thank you for all of the memories.

Etho's world is just. so cool. You can tell there's history and everything is a mix of whacky redstone farm/contraption and interesting build. And just the way he's familiar with it. It's so good. Also jobs. This world has so many things running, that upkeep is needed every now and then and that's cool to me because it makes the world really feel alive. My dream base is an 'alive' base, similar to Mumbo's. It has a core(a furnace) that consumes logs and wood slabs/sticks. and produces small amounts of charcoal as well as a detection system to manage the state of the base, which powers different things. The reason for that? Because it keeps me busy. When I'm bored or aimless, maintain the stock of the base. Make a tree farm/tree plantation. Basically it comes with projects needing to be managed. Because in a fresh world, there's so much you can do, but nothing you really HAVE to do. And because I do not have the time to set up dozens and dozens of farms and whatnot, just a single base would be enough.

Is... is this what being early feels like? Anyways, thank you for being The Most Reliable and Certifiably Awesome Minecraft RU-vidr in existence. My first episode was when you opened with playing with tnt launchers and started making Wilson’s face. It’s been awesome.

hey etho i just want to say thank you for uploading so much for years, you were basically 3-4 years of my life :)

I’d say I’d like to see more of the crimson keep, it keeps variety going

Etho, I'd watch you mine dirt. I don't care what you do as long as you're enjoying it. It's you excitement that makes us happy and excited.

Etho, thank you very much for taking us through making your enderporters. I've always wanted to know how to make one, and you're probably the best at explaining anything technical I know. :)

Why etho is the impostor: Hes just making vents in his world

Hey Etho, I'm really struggling with my health right now and had to come home early from work. I just jumped into bed and saw this video and immediately felt comforted knowing I could watch it and forget about everything else for awhile. Thank you so much for everything you do. I've not been here since the beginning but I'm planning on going back and watching this series from the beginning. Much love from Australia 🇦🇺

16:54 wait. lightning also turns brown mooshrooms back into red?

Idea: enderporter hub. A room thats big enough to house porters to every other porter in your world, while it would take two trips to get to every place it would allow you to have a lot more destinations while cutting down on the amount of buttons on each porter by having main porters connect to the hub. Love the videos, been watching since day one.

Enderporters almost done ETHO completing projects your making me prouder than I already was

Is it just me or do I love when he upgrades one of his old builds. Like seeing the furnace room get a super cool contraption when it was built like in the very beginning of the let’s play is super satisfying to me.

To think this is minecraft's longest series and its amazing

If you're a true Etho fan, you'll remember "Hello everyone, this is Etho."

Ok, I have a few questions, if you don’t feel comfortable, there is no need to answer 1. How do you last so long in one world? 2. How did you learn so much redstone ? 3. Do you know any hermits irl? 4. Do you still work in the greenhouse? 5. Naruto on a scale of 1-10 6. What is your favorite show/anime? P.S. Favorite RU-vid to be honest, love the videos! Keep it up!

Man, it feels really good to finally see the enderporters get real, consistent use all this time after you first set up the prototype a couple years back.

I love the nether, the whole blaze nether XP farm design was fun to watch. I wouldn’t mind watching anywhere Etho goes, it’s an adventure every time.

I was just about to look for a new etho ep when i got the notification.... thats creepy lol

oh yeah, don't forget about speed challenges. Etho basically pioneered speedrunning in this game.

I still love watching you work on projects like the crimson keep. It’s so cool seeing your building style and creative redstone!

Hi Etho, I just wanted to let you know that my grandpa passed away this morning, and your video helped me feel a bit better. Thanks for all the quality uploads.

Hey Etho have you considered adding Ender-porters in the nether. If you have one every 100 blocks that would end up being 800 blocks in the overworld and would provide for much better long range transportation using this method. You could have one for long range in the nether and then the normal short range one in the overworld. Also thanks for the great video as always.

Wow, last time I was this early Etho still hadn't mined the clay on chocolate island!

Hey Ergo, recently with everything going on I’ve been very unhappy and I haven’t been doing well but your videos never fail to make me smile. Thank you for the being the only thing that’s stayed consistent. Your videos are the only thing that excites me anymore and I just really appreciate everything you do. Thank you

Farthest I've gone was get an elytra yet I still will be forever loyal to this series ! Quality content

Was literally just thinking about when the new etho video would go up!!

I understand if you don't want to upload any Among Us yourself, but man, I have been loving seeing you play it on Tango's and other Hermits' streams! Thank you for the video and I hope you have a fantastic day! :D

nobody can replace this one man who, in all our hearts has made history, which those of us enjoying will never forget as long as we live. thank you for being who you are Etho, and please never change because for most of your viewers you are the most consistent thing they have to hold on to in this life.

wow! the enderporter _and_ the kelp farm were so cool to see working!

To make the ender porter in the man-cave faster, you can lower the waterlevel of the bubble stream and the piston to push the enderpearl out of the stream. This way the pearl has to travel less distance when you push the button. PS: You ofc have to leave the height of the down-flowing water the same, else the pearl would hit the ceiling when throwing it up.

Etho just saved me from failing NNN

Never too tired to watch etho..I went from watching you in highschool for years now I’m about to eas out of the Marine Corps and still watching etho thanks for all the great memories and funny times etho thank you for everything

I love watching the nether stuff, I'm personally working on a nether base type of project so it's nice to see your Crimson Keep and get ideas for what I'm building. I also think it would be fun to watch you do a caving/dungeon run next episode. You could do like a solo ABBA caving style episode, see what kinda cool loot you get in the end. It would give you something to do and kinda delve the series back into the adventure and action of Minecraft. Hope everyone's staying safe and healthy!

Does anybody remember when Etho tried to beat Vechs' Ragequit Holidays?

Personally I really like the crimson keep, I feel like it’s one of this world’s coolest builds

I love the crimson keep ergo!!! keep doing that project it gives me so much inspiration for nether builds.

I would gladly watch more of the crimson keep

I was just battling another episode of depression, The Ethos episode whooped its donkey. Thank you Ergo.

Yay! More etho!!! He's back!!! I've been waiting all week only looking forward to this exact moment!

I always love the way you say "The Crimson Keeeep"

Etho’s “uh-huh, yea” will never get old

I was just looking for a video to watch while I eat lunch. Thank you Ergo! :)

Etho, ever considered joining MCC or any other torny? I miss the days you did pvp and I hope you can still enjoy it.

I just started following you and your knowledge of Minecraft amaze me every time 🤯

watching etho is always so calming, i can fall asleep to his videos any day of the week. i love it

I hope I'm speaking for more than just myself when I say this: we would be very interested in seeing your Among Us games!

Hey Etho! If you want to make teleporting to the man cave faster, maybe you could have pistons pulse into the flowing water for a tick (breaking the flowing water but not the source) to allow the pearl to fall via gravity instead of slowing down. Might not make much of a difference overall, but every bit helps.

I can't reiterate enough how much I have enjoyed your videos for the past 9 years pretty much and I'm so happy about ur success! Keep up the videos man.

I love watching the crimson keep build one of my favorites

I honestly would have loved to see Etho play Among us in videos, or even see him play other games sometime in the future. I'd like to think I speak for most Etho viewers on this subject, just wanna know your thoughts on recording other games and seeing where it goes.

Hey Etho, you mentioned that you've been spending time playing new games lately. I'm sure I speak for a number of people when I say we'd love to see this on your channel, do you have any plans to do so? If you feel recording would take away from the enjoyment of the games for yourself we would certainly understand.

Pretty inspiring to see that this series is still going

I love everything you're doing in the Nether right now! Would love to see more.

Hey Etho! When is the next episode of Battle Bane coming out? :D

Etho uploads: Me: *clicks*

I love watching nether projects especially the "CRIMSON KEEP"

It’s really cool seeing the crimson keep build. Not many nether projects which switches things up. Thanks for your consistent awesomeness Etho!

Hey Etho have you ever considered making another montage of the let’s play world like the one from episode 200? I have to say it’s one of my favorite episodes but you never showcased anything from the current world.

hey ergs, halloween just passed, and christmas is coming up really soon ! do you have any holiday traditions that you like doing ? loving the series', loving the content ♡

Now you just need to link the enderporters with nether portals to your nether highway. Really impressive Etho, this has been an awesome series.

Hey Etho, I think that you should turn the empty wall into a maze that the kelp travels through like a marble run. Just a suggestion. Thanks for the many years of great content!
