Everything to know before Hermitcraft Season 10! 

One more thing that you might want to know to understand some references: In the beginning of season 9, there was one more hermit - TinfoilChef, also known as TFC. He was a Hermit in every sense of the word; spending most of his time on the server branch mining and only occasionally surfacing. He was also by far the oldest Hermit, being in his early 60s and this acting a bit like the other Hermits Grandpa. Unfortunately, TFC passed away in the Fall of 2022. So if you see a TFC memorial of some sort in Season 10, you know why.

Some really important fan culture rules: Rule #1: The Fans do not know the “rules” of the Hermitcraft server. If something made it into a video, all involved parties are okay with it. Rule #1A: If someone on Hermitcraft isn’t okay with it, they will deal with it together, whether that is behind the scenes or on-camera. Rule #2: We are not necessarily privy to how the Hermits resolve issues. It happens privately sometimes. If you don’t see them publically fixing it, you still don’t need to (and should not!!!) post comments or tweets bothering the person you consider to be at fault. Rule #3: The Hermits you see on screen are equal parts genuine, and improv roleplay characters. Wars and conflict in-game are fun enrichment for the content creators, not indication that they have a problem with each other. Rule #4: The Hermits are all adults, longtime friends, and professional colleagues. They do not need and do not want us fighting their fights.

Scar and BDubs may refer to Cleo as Mom. This is in relation to the life series season 4 'Limited Life,' when they teamed up to form the 'Clockers' with their often absent father Etho 😸

"It's safe to assume all the members from Season 9 will play in Season 10" All but one. RIP TFC.

Don’t ask a man his salary, Don’t ask a woman her age, And DO NOT ask Mumbo what he looks like without a mustache.

Skizzleman getting mentioned twice as part of the different "groups" despite not being a confirmed Hermit (yet) is hilarious. Just let him in already! He's a Hermit to us!

To any skizz hermitcraft deniers based on the “he won’t keep up the upload schedule” like half of the hermits dont keep up a consistent schedule

Scar often ends up having a "shady businessman/ conman" phase where he will try to sell stuff for high prices. S7 "magic crystals", S8 with his wagon story line, S9 the HotGuy fan shop. As well as several businesses endeavours in the live series.

Small lore thing worth bringing up in a more comprehensive video: False (the character, not the real person) has a twin sister who's also called False. They used to pretend to be one person on Hermitcraft before some atrocities happened, and False wiped her sister's memory before shoving her through a space-time rift, where she turned up in a different SMP (which Hermitcraft later had a crossover with).

I love how they made TFC a ghost

Have I seen almost every season? Yes. Did I still watch this just because hermits? Also yes.

People doesn't realise that proximity mod is basically makes MC into VR Chat.

Seeing how Doc said that Buttercups are back at it again i feel a war is already on its way

One thing i feel like needs to be said in a video like this is the mustache. I am not gonna elaborate but yeah the mustache is important

I kinda wanna see a Hermitcraft session that’s the same as hermittopia, at least in the beginning of the season, where everyone builds together and stays together.

So glad GIGGS was mentioned, my favourite kind of synergy

Sad the ConVex/ConCorp was not mentioned, since it was super important in both S6 and S7 and also is referenced a lot whenever Cub and Scar are together. But I get that maybe some of the new fans don't know about them, but yeah, ConVex for life babyyy!!!

Also of note about Cub: he is an absolute crazyperson as far as dedication to the grind goes. If something on a ridiculous scale seemingly appears overnight chances are Cub is behind it.

Another thing to know, even though every hermit technically are pg, alot of them (i do mean alot) have what I like to call pixar humor. This is implied dirty jokes that are not going to be caught by your average 10 year old. Scar sometimes do these by accident, like saying "assolotle" instead of axolotle. But there are also other examples I cant think of right now, Rendog does alot of them. And if you watch them play phasmophobia, you will hear even more of this Pixar humor.

As an Old, I feel like I need to point out that the New Hermit Order group was made up of all people from the MindCrack SMP, which was probably one of the first popular Minecraft SMPs from back when the game first came out.

That Cleo intro tho 😂

“Is the Moon BIG?”

Grian has been canonically refered to as a bird, but thats mostly fanon. He does have a superhero alter-ego called Poultry Man, though, and he has a connection to parrots (refered to as Pesky Birds)

PERFECT introduction for scar

As a big HermitCraft fan, I think you did a wonderful synopsis of the hermits and HermitCraft in general. Especially for those that aren't very familiar with the hermit or are new. Well done.

"Site your sources... No fanfic stuff" Basically just saying no Watcher lore and other such onterconected thepries of fandom XD Can't wait for S10 and very nice video❤

febuary third is also when the sandwich i ate today will go out of date. this is truly a shocking coincidence.

Ive been watching HermitCraft since Season 7 and it has been one of my favorite series in all of media. The characters and the people behind them are amazing, truly the stories they weave and entertainment they provide is priceless. I can't wait for this season and only found it out is so close a few days ago, looking forward to new alliances and stories not to mention the new people, I really do hope its Skizzleman I know there are ALOT of amazing creators out there but I would love to see him on the Hermitcraft server! Also great video I dropped a subscribe and look forward to your thoughts on season 10 as it unfolds!

Great video, just one thing. You are talking about the Civil War not the Prank War, the Prank War lead into the Civil War, but the big difference was the that the Civil War had clear sides, but also was called the Civil War by Hermits and fans at the time. Anyway great video, I’m just being very nit picky bc Season 6 is my favorite season

During the Hippie time travel arc in Season 6, Herobrine makes a canon appearance in Hermitcraft. So while he may not be Minecraft canon, he's definitely lurking somewhere in Hermitcraft. Also something I was reminded of recently, Jeff the Minion. While he hasn't appeared in episodes outside of Evil X animations in X's s8 since Season 1, it's worth mentioning as possibly the first example of Hermitcraft Lore

I WILL TAKE SKIZZ AND JOEL, ITS SKIZZ AND JOEL IS GOOD TOO AND IM SUBBED TO BOTH ALREADY

With all due respect Bdubs is an artist and in my most humble opinion there is no better Minecraft builder. He is the pinnacle.

Not to mention the repeated appearance of Grumbot, as of season nine three Grumbots have existed and there could be more in the future

I appreciate this vid so much, I’m attempting to get my friend into hermitcraft and they were wondering about references to other things, so ty! :D

I've been watching Hermitcraft since season 6. BDoubleO100 along with Paul Soars Jr. and Generic B were my introduction to modded Minecraft with Attack of the B Team, and I learned how to play from the tutorials Paul Soars Jr. posted on his channel. That was back in 2012, and I've been playing ever since. My first introduction to Etho was with his SMP of Sky Factory 2 along with Vintage Beef. I also enjoy the Life series. Whatever they come up with, it should be fun to watch.

"Starting off with a bummer, capitalism :/" AFSGDJDJDJ Edit: it hasn't happened yet but please no discourse in the replies it was just a funny line delivery

16:52 how you said this made me have to pause to gather myself then resume the video also something new members of the fandom might want to know is that etho never changes his skin

If a fan of game videos has been under a rock for ten years and is just now hearing about Hermitcraft, they might wonder who Jellie is and why fans can barely bring ourselves to speak her name. I am sure she will show up in season 10 and the uninformed will wonder why everyone gets all choked up.....

And as a reminder to everyone watchin: Kindness! Yes we get fun storylines and people agance each other in different parts BUT remember they are doing this for fun and we show respect to both sides No leaving mean comments because your fav is in a war agance another hermit. Lets keep this community fun and being kind lets us have many of fun events!

the way you didnt know skizz was gonna be one of the new hermits in this video and yet managed to include him anyway at 14:49

I started watching season 7 because of Grian and then watched everyone (even TFC back then) watched the consequential seasons (the 9 may be the less) and my favs are Etho, Grian, Keralis, Cleo, Pearl, Iskall, etc. The NHO from season 4 was great. The good thing is I've been watching old seasons from different POVs through the years because the content is HUGE (really). One of my favourite if not my favourite Minecraft series.

You nailed this info download. Well done. Loved it

Though you also have to mention that the buttercups have also been the golden trio season 7 because every season since season 7 they have built at least their starter bases next to each other.

19:33 where moon big?

This was a really god recap of it all. And I love how you manged to give really good descriptions of every single Hermit that captured who they are and what they do in a very shot and concise way

Thank you so much for this! I only know stuff from watching Empires and the Life Series, and could never really get into Hermit Craft halfway through the last season, so I’m excited to give the new season a shot and start from the beginning! This has been really helpful

What a great video, i watch Hermitcraft for many years and this summarization was really fantastic work. Makes me just more curious of what all the hermits are brewing up in the upcoming Season. Keep making those videos! Love from Germany

i only started watching hermitcraft in s8, and slowly expanded out from the few creators i started with. thank you for all of the insight into past seasons + my lesser known hermits!

Getting back into watching Hermitcraft for the first time since season 3 or 4, I’m thankful for you video, it helped me get all caught up!

Everyone's beloved Joe is also the original new guy cause she is the first person to be invited to the server who wasn't one of the creators of the server, and is the #1 protector of the gays, look for the clip of Joe shooting Dangthatsalongname (Scott) for saying "he hates gays". Joe is love Joe is life

great video as always! ur definitely helping me get through the wait for season 10😭

Oh my thank you for making this video I had no idea it was going to start so soon since some members felt burnt out

"Hermitdaft" where we do "Daft things" really sums it up

Also notable, its unlikely to be mentions but there is a possibility of the mentioning/reminiscing about the time the moon became big and everyone had to abandon the server in one way or another before they were all destroyed, including but not limited to, some flying away in rockets, the boatem crew falling through the boatem hole, if I remember correctly at least one pulled a wizard of oz style hot air balloon escape, and many other ways the hermits of season eight survived. also, something I'm annoyed hasn't been mentioned since it happened was the architects sending five diamond blocks to a future season via rocket at the end of season six.

This is a great video. It is very well made and high quality!! I very much enjoyed and the explanation of the hermitcraft past. Good luck and keep up the good work!!!

Seeing Skizzle and Joel in Hermit is already amazing! I’m too excited to see what they do!

Very helpful! I was a fan of Hermitcraft back in season 6 but I stopped watching near the end of that season and all but forgot about it until I became a fan of the life series when Secret Life came out. I'm hoping to get back into HC with season 10!

Thanks for this video! I tried watching from season 6, with the aim to eventually catch up with the current series, but life got in the way. I'm hoping the watch season 10 as it comes out. This video was really helpful :)

Never watched Hermitcraft before, but I am such a HUGE fan of the Life Series that I plan to start HC this season. Thanks for the introductions and info!

I really hope scar doesn't immediately jump into making HermitCraft season 10 videos. Winning secret life and then Jellie dying is just a lot of stuff to pile onto him and adding in HermitCraft videos every week or two just seems like too much for now

i'm so excited for season 10! i've been a bdubs main since season 7, but during season 9 i started watching scar as well! i can't wait for the new season, this video really brought the hype

Scar posted a screenshot of the opening hermitcraft meeting and skizzleman and joel were both in it. I would consider that an official announcement.

Thank you for this video! As someone who has been watching since Season 6 when Grian joined, this is very helpful, even as I've gotten to know more about some of the Hermits throughout the years. I'm looking forward to whoever may be joining in Season 10 and expanding my Minecraft content creator list, plus how they interact with the current Hermits!

Even if the life series isn’t considered canon (which it most definitely is) there is still a death game that took place on the actual server in season 6 called Demise. Having had the same creator as the life series (Grian) it’s sometimes thought as life series season 0.

I’ve watched 2 seasons of Hermitcraft now and thought I had at least a decent understanding… but there’s so much I don’t know 😂 this video was so amazing and informative!!

Great video for our new friends just joining hermitcraft!! Thanks!!

A rundown of the past storylines by season would be so cool!

Gday. I LOVE the intro you have done for each hermit. I will direct people here if they want to know anything about it. Great job. I've missed it so much! Just subbed :)

Just found out today skizz and Joel are coming and I’m so excited :)

Joel(joel please join hermitcraft)+ Grian + Scar = total chaos

Wasn't expecting season 10 to start so soon. Can't wait for this years chaos

Just some anecdotes of the past: If you think scar killed it in this last season, you haven't seen S5. The city, the vex storyline and the BIG DIG was insane. Not to mention the absurd world spawn. On the "capitalism" aspect, hermits tried on season 5 to make "service shops" and, in the beginning, avoid using diamonds. (A lot of IOU shenanigans obviously). Some of the hermits didn't like it, so I believe that's why they don't mess with the diamonds as much nowadays, even if the economy gets inflated bcuz of 1.18. Also, it was a missed opportunity from this video to talk about the starting main gimmicks of each season. S6 with the districts and railroads (GOAT season IMO), S7 with the eye ocean, S8 with the horses paths, S9 with the hermitssipi... Now a little on the future, S10, from the first episodes, looks to be very unappealing from the start. No gimmicky seed, not many biomes, just plains everywhere. But that's not that bad, as bdubs said "the hermits will sculpt the land themselves". So expect some crazy custom biomes!

Builds with no backs is a thing and most likely be seen in s10. Nice vid!

even if I’ve been watching hc since s7, this was still super cool and had a lot of information I didnt know!

Tango sakadoodling Grian chobblesoming

SKIZZ AND JOEL ARE CONFIRMED IN SEASON 10 BY SCAR'S INSTAGRAM POST!!!! YEEEESSSS I PREDICTED BOTH OF THEM

Maybe the wrong place to rant about new member possibilities, but, once I saw a short Martyn posted talking about some things I forgot when making this comment, and then he said “By the way, I’m joining Hermitcraft Season 10” and put his character in one of the empty character spaces. Just wanted someone to know what I heard.

the mayor race? "Mumbo for Mayor" slipped into broader meme culture for a minute.

A little detail about Etho, he's the father of technical Minecraft 😊

Idk all has said that he will not be playing, just hanging out with his friends. So maybe we will get him living in Ethos Dishwasher

was hoping that you would put the iconic moment where grian and scar scared cleo as a charged creeper in season 9.

They have been hinting that season 10 was going to have a "crossroads" plot. I hope that means that they will find other means of travel that just the elytra.

I know you mentioned them in the resource pack section but decked out and TCG will be mentioned all the time, as almost every stream done on their vault hunter’s series had mentioned either one or both

Doc is one of my favorites beside many others. I wanna see if Doc manages to break the server in season X or the server breaks the GOAT. He is a legend of it's own and he dose things like no one else.

I noticed you didn't mention Country Road(s). I've heard it discussed as a way to have the Hermits closer together without building up too much lag on the server. I guess we will just have to see.

It's amazing to me that i haven't even heard of a couple of these despite watching multiple seasons

OMG your cat was so cute in thos pictures! hope it gets better! :)

"Or crypto" 😂 I can't lol. Ps would love a video just on these "Canon not canon" things

If Skizz isn’t a hermit this season I will be bawling and wallowing because he deserves it most out of every other minecraft creator I can think of. But he’s been pretty offline this week (from twitch and stuff) so maybe that’s a good sign 🤷‍♀️

You showed a lot of Grian and Mumbo's evil robot son in the video, but for some reason didn't explicitly mention it. That's definitely as cannon as it gets too.

It’s probably important to note that hermit lore doesn’t really apply to every hermit. For example, Xisuma has his ship thing going on but for a lot Hermits that’s not cannon. Really it’s up to viewer to decide on how hermitcraft works for them personally and very few people in the fandom will subscribe to the same cannon.

"starting off with a bummer..... CAPITALISM"

I really hope grusn mumbo and iskall finally remember the 5 diamond blocks they sent to themselves in s6

I just wanna appreciate the fact that you take the time to reply & or like every comment.

I’ve been watching season 6 and now I finally understand the hermit gang song

15:07 OMGGG I was watching Impulse's stream POV for this Phasmo screenshot. Funniest Phasmo moment I've ever seen..and Impulse's face 😂😂😂 oh my goddd

One of my biggest hopes is maybe that they probably not randomly but somehow they try to group up with people they don't normally I don't think any of the Hermits don't like each other so I think it would work really well to have like groups like that that kind of shake things up instead of just having like the same people always together. But I do understand time zones and all that kind of make it hard to group with some people like I would actually love to see and not because people are trying to ship them which I think is dumb like Etho and Gemini do collaborative work together I think that would be really cool taking their two different build styles the shell essentially. We could dub them the siblings because I hate people trying to ship people what chances are we'll see people doing similar things we might even get to see iskall and Etho again they are pretty dynamic duo. Or maybe even Etho and beef as beef did mention that he wants to try and be more social

I'm calling it Joel and Lizzy for season 10

JOEL IS JOINING

Thanks becaus ive only started watching hermitcraft during season 9 😅
