From Surface to Bedrock :: The Joy of Building 

Bro started terraforming before geting iron tools, hes got his priorities straight

Omg finally what i’ve been looking for, just a chill slow minecraft gameplay, no fast talking/screaming/30 scene cuts per minute

I agree with all of the other comments praising your slow relaxing pace of your videos. I want to watch a let’s play, not a “let’s document my progress I made mostly off camera”

Everyone's talking about how relaxing the video is but _no one_ is mentioning the anxiety inducing coincidences of the door to the house being open, the iron going missing, and that creepy shot of Etat when he was _"dealing with"_ the pillagers like someone was watching him from his window lmao

The story telling is my favourite.

I'm glad to see slower-paced content making a comeback on RU-vid. Keep it up!

RU-vid just recommended this to me! I’ve always enjoyed Pixlriffs Minecraft guide series and mainly the building aspects, and this has such a similar vibe to it. It’s absolutely perfect :)

Bob Ross must've had some budget cuts, the resolution is practically 16bit! Still looks gorgeous though.

Your editing and building skills are already at the level i expect out of someone with a million subscribers! i feel lucky to have found you early on in this series. you obviously have a clear creative vision and it brings back memories of staying up way past my bedtime marathoning etho and bdubs videos when i was a kid. The format you have being closer to the joy of painting than tiktoks is something ive really been craving in the minecraft youtube space lately! thank you for filling that niche. instant sub!

That's a really nice seed! I love the large snow capped mountains in the background. The enderman in the boat is also really cool.

Mac dude is the Minecraft Bob Ross, God damnit

Not only is this playthrough my absolute favorite kind of building, the editing is also high skill with super immersive attention to detail without ever feeling rushed or hectic. All that, but what really makes it stand out for me so far, is the consistently gentle and thoughtful approach to mobs and wildlife in general. How many people who play minecraft on YT would casually offer home to a stranded attic enderman who just needed to get out of the rain?

At first i thought this was one of those documentary videos about "how to have fun when building", but the slow pacing, well done but simple editing and overall vibe of the video showed what i was lacking, the appreciation of the moment, the passion. Thanks

I like to watch chill minecraft videos while i’m trying to fall asleep as a sort of white noise… i’m less than a minute in and can already tell that your videos will be perfect! so many minecraft youtubers these days are so fixated on making everything big and loud and crazy, trying to do anything to grab their audience’s attention, that it seems like they forget about actually making a good and watchable video. i’m more and more appreciative of channels like yours that haven’t abandoned the video format that built the foundation of minecraft youtube :)

It's so nice watching a calm minecraft video with no fast pace editing.

Wait i just realized that you're wearing the same ken kaneki skin that i used 5 years ago lol. Also please please keep continuing this series, it's rare to find content like this nowadays!!

one of the most cinematic eps of mc ive ever watched, such an underrated channel

I wish you could've seen the way I perked up at 21:55, I felt like a sleeper agent lol This video is the first one of yours I've ever watched and it certainly won't be the last; I won't repeat everyone's sentiment but do know it's shared, I love how relaxing your gameplay is and how good you are at building :3

That's some gold YT content, love the slow and chill gameplay, quality editing and attention to detail. Brings me back to beta times. Can't wait for the next episode :D

I can't explain how much I love Minecraft videos like this, where the player plays the game in a slow pace, specially when they speak slowly and in a low tone, no screaming or shouting, it's so peaceful and it helps me when I am feeling anxious

I struggled to make these kind of beautiful builds but when we played minecraft 1.13 (Wii U edition, lol) with my friend, we were both surprised how well we did as a team!

I love this guy video style, It’s so personal and creative. I noticed the echo effect when he was in the caves ahah

i love this!! you've got little hints of a story going on, and you edit reverb into your voice when you're in caves. i'll have to watch more

the nighttime mondstadt music is so much more fitting for minecraft than i realized. excellent video, excellent music choice, excellent vibes, im excited to see what you continue to make ❤

stuff like that is what the create mod is for. moving crane, ore elevator, just the bare minimum to keep the vanilla feel

During the day i watch other slightly more popular faster paced minecraft RU-vidrs, but at night or in the morning you are who i watch to wake up/wind down. very chill and nice to listen to.

I always did this even in multiplayers with my friends. But there's a downside that can't made me maximize my build and slowly priorities at mining and exploring, it's about trolling. I keep getting killed by my friends randomly due to lack of armor and weapons I had ( I only got iron because for me, Iron is already enough to fight all minecraft content ( except hardcore of course ) and my friends already got diamonds and netherites ) so I priorities building because it's much fun. I know trolling is a mainstream thing, everyone always did it but it's really get annoying really quick when I build tall/underground things, I need to get there really far.

i love the way you use the replaymod! the shots are cinematic but make it feel like the audience is in the world watching you build, it's really unique.

It feels relaxing and chill, no overaaturated editing and low attention span 2 second edits

building the perfect home before beginning your progress is ny favorite, but definitely not easy at all

I like trapdoors because you can play with the depth a little bit by swapping what block they're on to add a bit of curvature to railings, they are annoyingly expensive though

I usually watch your videos before I sleep because they are very relaxing and make me feel very happy. The slow place of this let’s play is so good, I love when people make content like this rather than quick let’s beat the game so we can build after which people tend to favor.

i hope you make use of that cave you found, i love incorporating natural generation in minecraft into stories and builds

absolutely beautiful builds. gives me ideas on how to make my own better - when i get a pc again ;w; i cant wait to see your work on beautifying an ancient city!! glad one is so closeby - they're awesome early game! (if you escape) plus easy access to sculk allows for cool theming down the road - if you were interested ;3 i feel like you're telling a little bit of an arg type story too, some of these shots, and stuff vanishing... ;) i love that it never overpowers or derails the main focus, which is building.

Wait, I remember you! I think I came across your 1.20 Let’s Play a few months back. So glad you showed back up after I got a new Google Account!

They could never make me hate you, Minecraft

"Man! This is so peacefu-" 5:27 👁👁

Damn what a great episode. It's really chill and i feel like you're playing the game how it's meant to be played. Also some creepy storytelling going on.

Like always, loved this episode! I really appreciate all the work you put into those :)

One minute in and already transfixed. I just wanna curl up with a blanket and cup of tea to this, I love it.

All of my favorite builds and projects have been prior to getting diamonds as well. Nothing like suffering with stone and iron. Something about getting diamond just makes things feel too end game like and i lose steam faster.

The reverb on your voice in the caves is the extra touch I appreciate.

Such a relaxing video Both you and 'Ash's Den' are genuinely so refreshing to watch, because the video isn't crazy edited, and actually respects it's viewers's attention spans lol

Seeing this makes me wanna play again. Also love the style of editing, blending live commentary with voice over and shots of different perspective, the way you build without planning everything in litemetica. Def subscribing!

So glad RU-vid recommended this to me. I've been watching Minecraft let's plays since 2011 and this reminds me a lot of older let's plays, with a mix of modern. Very well done! Editing style reminds me a bit of BdoubleO as well. You've earned my subscription, keep it up! 💙

Discovered the channel through this video. This series is amazing!

I found another Minecrafter I love! Thanks for coming to my recommended channel 🤩

not sure why youtube put this on the front page 2 months after release but its nice, you have the soft voice i was expecting for a lets play called 'the joy of building', you could voice audio books or poetry

I really admire your way of playing this "sandbox" game. Also very cool house

first time watching and I love how calm and unexagerrated your voice is! this plus the longer form of the video is really relaxing to me, almost like a podcast :)

I recommend adding a trim around the copper roof of your house, right now it looks a bit like the roof is just plopped onto the house, and a trim would make it fit in more. Deepslate bricks could look nice

damn this video brought me back to the let's plays from my childhood, just inspired me to download minecraft again :^D looking forward to more episodes!

Im literally in love with your voice its so calming and cheerful

You've gained a new subscriber! the simpleness of the builds and storytelling is what drew me in. Kind of reminds me of old school Minecraft let's pay

Nice video! I love the pacing and the editing

Now that's a staircase, an ancient city with iron armor and an iron sword now lets make an equation out of that. AC+IA+IS=D where D= death. Finlay ladders on trapdoors I'm at this years when did that happen.

I just realized I have no excuses

this series is going on the best way it could go, I'm really enjoying watching this simple world evolve

Love the casual ness of this playthrough! You earned a new subscriber!

1. love that you built a huge and stunning house while still primarily using stone tools, the correct priorities 2. the rickety and almost untrustworthy old rollercoaster vibe is really amazing, the ride itself and the way its placed in the environment is amazing 3. im an easy mode player becuase of paranoia and being a wimp, but you make playing in hard mode look so much less stressful than i find it, i really enjoy your energy and your builds, the cinematic shots really add to the experience :) ps. love the attic enderman friend

This was so cool and calming to watch, youre gonna blow up

Man, i just finished watching it all the eps and like 3 years ago i almost got in the trap that you did with your hardcore world lol, i only didn't because the world only las half/1 year lmao. But i noticed that wenever i built with nk planning i gotway happier lol Anyway i love the series and you even gave me some ideas (with this epsode especially) Anyway keep up the great work

It can be a little more expensive but you should look into using Hanging Signs as your hand railings. Personally I think it makes an excellent substitute for trap doors when things start to look very same-y, and it's got a perfect aesthetic for it :)

it's so odd for me to see someone getting iron so late into the world. always see someone make a small starter house after they grab iron or at least stone tools, then go for iron, then maybe expand the house to half the size of yours

Ur camera angles are suuuuper underrated man. Keep going and I’m sure you’ll get bigger and bigger

I really enjoy your pacing!

Really wholesome gameplay without all the shouting and fancy music, love it. You deserve way more subs.

I'm loving this series. My favorite thing is coming across a content creator like this. Subscribed and caught up!

Love the series so far! I've recently been struggling with perfectionism in my worlds and I've found your videos to be very inspirational. Keep up the great content!

This is really nice. I never watched a video of you before and it is so nice to not watch the eight over the top build. It's all just so... normal and calm. This is for me what Minecraft should feel like :)

the minecraft music playing while you panic is peak cinema

I always love a good mine and quarry. It really adds to a world. And your's looks great! 👍

I've never Seen video like yours before, it's so relaxing, doing everything with a stone pick axe (the terraforming/digging)!must have been very paintfull

This is so relaxing! I love minecraft gameplays like this!

the enderman looks so pissed xD

Randomly got recommended and boy am I happy that you did

Reminds me of 2013 captainspooklez. One legend leaves, a new one appears…?😊

Yo I’m Casspid! Crazy to see how you have progressed with ur Channel! Love to see it. Keep up the good work

You deserve to be wayyy bigger! Amazing content, keep up all the good work! :D

I’m loving this series, I’m glad RU-vid recommended this! Subscribed!

Wow it will be nice that your build runs into a deep dark biome because you can play with some darker lighting because mobs don't spawn in those biomes except the warden if you trigger it

i am well aquainted with the surface part

Maaah boy!! Let's go sir. Great to see another video

awesome video, been a while since i've been able to just sit through and enjoy gameplay

The echo in the cave was a nice touch. Nice video

You are so chill! I literally don't think I could dial it back l, you have a gift sir. Beautiful builds as well. I'm here for it

A full copper roof before iron tools? wow you are commited

This video is perfect to watch, very simple but yet enjoyable and well edited.

i love the vibes and the content! keep it up

Quite impressive how you managed to do so much with only stone tools. I didnt start building stuff until i got netherite

Your world looks so similar to mine its crazy, I even built a similar house to yours 😂 Very excited bout all your Future builds, keep it up 👍

Glad I found you! Like your style 😁

doing all that work with stone tool would make me go crazy 😅 I prefer to at least get iron and then do building and/or terraforming

putting at least once kaneki skin is a canon event for mc players

im only a minute and a half in but I loveeee the scale of ur house, reminds of the stuff I used to build in 2013 when I loved building in that ornate medieval style :00

3:39 that region looks familliar, looks like Fixxit412's hardcore world.

0:40 bro kidnap tall black man

Sometimes YT recommendations have got my back.

getting your channel recommended was a godsend

Hi dude, extremely good video, I love the way you play Minecraft without rushing, and truly enjoy the game like it was intended.
