I Made A Castle For Every New 1.17 Block! 

‘Around 12 hours’ just threw that in real casual

Calcite: Disney castle Dripstone: Old ruins Tuff: Mideval ages Deepslate: Villian Headquarters

We need a counter for every time Joel says “etc”

Joel: “Add buildings like stables and stuff” Me: “Instantley thinks horse murder station”

3 minutes in and you’ve already showed us one of the castles. That was quick

Can we just appreciate that Joel does things that aren’t essentially needed, but it’s still amusing?

Joel’s castles: magnificent,detailed,shapes My castles: square made of stone brick

watching joel get more confident about his building and being so proud of his builds is so nice to see (also being super ambitious and giving us good content lmao)

Me already hearing “12 HOURS” Me appreciating this so much already! Can’t wait to see what he builds!

The deep slate castle is the perfect villain lair

The calcite castle looks a lot like Neuswanstien Castle in the German Alps.

You should name the second castle “Castle of Drip”

Joel: builds a castle for every block in 1.17 Everyone: HOW DOES HE DO IT?!??

No one: Absolutely no one: Joel: *builds things so realistic they look like actual structures and not like things in a block game*

Joel: "...so, we used alot of diorite." Iskall: Heresy!!!!!

Joel: uses a lot of diorite in the first castle Iskall: BURN IT ALL!

Joel can literally make any block look good

Joel’s weird intros are now his calling cards

Joel says “exetra” more than Lizzie uploads😂

No-one: Absolutely no-one: Joel: saying the word dense 5 times to describe the tuff castle

I literally can’t remember how to build a nether portal and he’s doing this. (Edit: Thank you for the likes and instructions)

Almost everyone: Joel how do you do this Nobody: Grian: it’s simple really

Joel is a very underrated builder. He deserves way more subs.

The title should be 'joel building 4 castle's while complaining about it"

joel: * spends 12 hours making 4 different amazingly detailed castles * me: * spends a week building a single dirt hut *

challenge: make a house with ONLY the new 1.17 blocks

that first castle inspired me to make my megabase in one of my worlds like that. it is my favorite thing I've ever built. also the mountain it's on.

joel: "I love the brightness in color” , literally only using white gray and brown.

I hope the hermits invite you to Hermitcraft!

"This one took another 4 hours to build" This would've taken me multiple days, Joel is a building machine

Im getting the idea Joel’s favorite word is “ect.” 😂

I’ve been trying to build a castle in my own world and this video actually helped out a lot with learning what structures to add so thanks mate

This man really out here building castles

Honestly, diorite is so underrated. It's 100% my most used accent/texturing block. It works so well with blocks like white concrete and white terracotta. It also really provides that contrast for blocks like you said: granite, spruce wood, or even brick

this inspired me for my castle :0 mixing the layout of the calcite and and tuff blocks, and adding some elements of the deepslate castle, this is very inspiring and i love the castles you designed! :)

that tuff castle looks like the really old 2010-2011 builds with medieval texture packs, kind of a throwback

Just me who misses all the crazy intros 🥺

Why did the chicken cross the road? *because it was running away from Joel*

This just proves you’ll be perfect in hermit craft

Just watched the 4 elements castle video from 2 years ago and it’s so cool to see how far you’ve come and how talented you are. It’d be super cool to see a transformation of that video with some of the new blocks that have been added!

The amount of effort put in to this is amazing.

Imagine if Joel took every build he ever made and put it into one world and made a map out of it. As well as the Minecraft map, but also a fantasy, old looking map resembling Joel’s fantasy world would be amazing!

Joel took the longest on building the 3rd castle, woww- it must be very 'tuff' building that :3

No one: Joel: “I classify them as stone type blocks” Are we talking Minecraft or Pokémon haha

Me being a Harry Potter fan: It’s hogwarts! The first castle: what?

Idea: make a castle for every hogwarts house

I absolutely love this video- I've watched it numerous times and I just keep coming back to it for inspiration and just the sheer entertainment of it.

the last castle was absolutely beautiful, loved the color palette - made me want to live in it

12 hours? I've never had so much respect for a youtuber before. Please make sure to take care of yourself! 🥰

this was definitely time well spent.

Joel, this is genius! What a fresh and cool idea! That sounded so disingenuous but honestly, this is such a brilliant video and concept overall. I love it. Your building style is so detailed and just lovely.

The tiled deepslate honestly has to be my favorite block

Next minecraft update: We have made a new mob - The Joel Can be tamed with spruce wood and when tamed it will automatically kill chickens It can also build anything for you if you give it any block in the universe

me: feeling good about my cobble caste me after watching Joel's video: feeling like an absolute noob

The Calcite Castle really worked! very creative blend of blocks - well done,

you should make a second part to this where you decorate!

I’m Swiss and that actually looks like something you’d find here, good job Joel

The amount of effort you put into your vids is so crazy and you don’t get enough respect for it.

I love how the builds have evolved so much since the 4 stone type castle video!

Wow these are amazing! Honestly you put so much effort into these videos and they just keep coming better and better!

me: Proud of a dirt hut Joel: builds an amazing castle and is like yeah its ok

it’s a good day when joel posts

Can we just appreciate how Joel makes so many intricate, detailed and time consuming builds and how often he posts videos making those builds like

can we just appreciate the fact that joel is a minecraft youtuber who actually builds. Even Dream can't build like this. Hats off to you Joel.

now that’s dedication

Nobody: Literally nobody: Joel:“In this video ...”

these builds are so beautiful, joel u did an amazing job!

White powdered concrete works great with calcite. Used it on a waddle-daub style medieval building recently and it turned out quite nice.

Why is this intro normal Joel I’m worried about you!

YOU SHOULD DO ONE FOR Amethyst!

They all look so pretty! You did an amazing job again Joel :DDD

Thanks for the advices for drip stone. I look forward to how you will use the new tuff and copper blocks

Joel: says the word 'Hogwarts' Me: jumps out my seat and increases my attention tenfold

Im scared for joel’s sanity... 12 HOURS-

Joel Should use One Of the Castles for his Empire Series!

Nice builds well done Joel

There are few that can make diorite and granite look good… Joel is one of those people that just makes everything look good Looking awesome man!!!

Joel uses Calcite. Me be like: ThAt’S a ThInG?!?!

I just wanna cry at how much Joel has grown, building wise. He is such an amazing builder and I’m just so proud of him for branching out and trying new build styles 🥺

This is the video that got me to subscribe to your channel. Good thumbnail, good title, good builds, awesome video!

Can we just appreciate all the effort put in a ten minute video?

Joel : " this build took me 4 hours " Me : it would probably take me 2 weeks to finish

The calcite castle is so beautiful I need a tutorial!

that dripstone castle looks more like a fortress at the nation border during active medieval war. Looks amazing!

When Joel isn't on Hermitcraft :(

honestly joel is so underated like hes a great builder and only has 2m subs?

You should put one of those into your empires series 😃 also loved the vid

i really like the deepslate castle one, it looks like something out of a dark fantasy video game like Castlevania

This man is so talented 😭I cant even build a house

I rlly clicked the notification as fast as a karen calling for the manager

hi I am a new subcriber and i just want to say you are an incredible builder! you should be like a professional architect i mean WOOOOOW! anyways, my two favorite were the calcite castle and the 4th one too because i am very fond of the deepslate block it looks very nice and especially the deepslate polished tiles like wow i like using the tiles on a roof when i make a house out of birch planks and logs because the birch log is spotted with black specs and it compliments it well

the use of the pointed drip stone in the tourette like parts with the drip stone one was really nice

This is literally mental, it’s so beautiful. How is this Minecraft ?

Imagine actually be this talented

Dripstone castle looks a bit like how one might imagine Redwall to look. Less rectangular on the outer wall, sure, but still it has that dusty sort of pinkness the sandstone was described as having thanks to the granite bringing in the rosy warmth of the build. Calcite is my favorite, though! As much as Deepslate is very dim, and muted, it looks good. Tuff was also really nice; love to see that fully furnished in an adventure map as a questing hub. Still, imho, Calcite is the best! It truly does capture that bright, sweeping airiness of palaces inspiring this style build.

Love the builds you did a great job wow

Let's be honest hesre, granite works with a lot of blocks

Hermitcraft needs this man. Absolutely insane.

I gotta say these are one of your best castles you've built. My personal fav one you built was the Disney Castle, could you maybe do a vid on reworking it?

You should do a video of you decorating the inside of the castles!
