I Transformed the Nether Portal in Minecraft Hardcore 

A small Nether waste biome behind the portal would look nice plus it would provide a home for some adventurous pigmen.

Just wanted to say that i really love that you include subtitles in your videos. I have issues with auditory processing so being able to read helps me follow along and enjoy the video and your amazing builds!!

I’m thinking a big pond under the bridge would look pretty good.

what about... - somewhere to house any allays (finding the outpost would be an interesting side quest) - axolotl, frog and aquatics farm built onto this somehow - nether plants grove/farm ie. wort, fungus, vines, stem etc. (maybe behind the portal?) - tunnel system within the cave transformed into a custom built multi-level dwarven village with a blacksmith/mining guild

New favorite hardcore series. 100% build a nether biome behind the portal!

behind the nether portal you could build an area that looks like the nether is coming through to the overworld

The nether scene you put behind the portal should look like the nether you step out into on the other side. Or make two of the same scenes, one behind the portal and the other in the nether to step out into, then do the same on the other side for the overworld. That would be freaky going through the portal and make it almost seem like you haven't gone through.

Absolutely love the natural and organic look to your builds. Btw MythicalSausage punched a villager when transporting them and later on when they spawned an iron golem it killed him because apparently villagers hold grudges for a long time, so just watch out as i think you hit one of them while killing the enderman.

excellent content sir. you have a knack for building. very detailed and beautiful builds and it's fun to watch your process. keep up the great work! excited to see how your world comes together :)

I can’t wait to see more of this!! As well as some new tips and trick videos! Been working on my world and I have no idea what to build or how to plan and I would love to see more of how you get an idea!!

“Never ever mess with a guy and his villager in a boat.” Very inspirational quote right there lol

Man, I keep being amazed by your building style again and again!!! Thanks for being so inspiring! I'd put amethyst blocks and tinted purple and magenta glass behind the portal to give it some depth.

Just found your channel today while searching for inspiration for my giant 2-layer lush cave (in an mountain dark forest Island at spawn!) and whoa am I glad I found you and this series! Loving your build-style as well as the editing, narration and music. Epic channel, mate!!

I just recently found your channel and I am HOOKED!! To be completely honest I don't even build any of your builds I just watch and listen while I play minecraft because it's just so interesting. Absolutely 10/10 channel. Keep it up ✊✊✊

I'm just commenting on your newest video because I want to thank you for your awesome channel. Your videos have reinvigorated my love for minecraft and have helped me improve my building skills and creativity immensely. Your walk arounds always inspire me to build something, and your tutorials are perfectly paced and really clear. No annoying constant self promotion, no trying to make yourself the center of the videos, no clickbait, no timewasting, tons of UNIQUE content, all with amazing skills. You're a great artist and video maker. Congrats on all your hard work and accomplishments -- I'm glad this channel exists!

I started Minecraft when I was 7 or 8, now I’m 21 and downloaded it again. This is by far from my opinion the best game ever made. The upgrades of the game are so insane. And because of you I wanna play all day.

I literally found your account yesterday and have been binging all your videos! They are amazing

Cave is looking beautiful. All that resource gathering will really pay off down the track. And love the nether portal - very inspirational!

Love the idea of a Nether Biome behind the Portal, that is a brilliant idea!

Loving the series so far 🥰

I really love the idea of making the other side of the portal look like the nether. Loving this series so much. Your dedication in making each episode so good inspires me so much! 💙

It’s a good day for the builders when BlueNerd posts a new video. I’m hoping to see the 1.18 world return at some point because I wanted to see your idea for what would be around the church, but I love how this new world is turning out so far!!

Amazing music, editing, and even much amazing builds You don't ever fail to empress me, pls keep going you legend. P.s no need to use more than one diamond to repair your shovel just make a new one (using only one diamond) then combine it with the old one👌.

This is so nice, love this series, can't wait for the next episode

This is a fabulous build and loving the inside of it a lot. I would check that villager and see if they work at Amazon. The dirt you added along with the cliff area is great and did improve the look. Neat thing about boats and pillager’s LOL. Just a great video and loving it. Can not wait til the next. Keep up the great work Blue 😁☕️

OMG, that looks so good‼️ You always surprise me how much work you do each video 😆

Love this series and the new cave area!! You improved alot i like this style of video too!!

I'm absolutely loving the progress bars on the videos! Thanks for a well-captioned and interesting video!

Love these series so much! keep it up.

LOVE all your builds and i try to play like you in Minecraft! I see how much work is put into the vids. Appreciated! You could try op make a pond in the middle of your cave area. It brings life into the world and the sound of water is relaxing too. If you want, you could add fish too.

You having the subtitles in already and having them customized is a really nice touch to the videos. Came across your channel with the first episode and I like the style.

amazing! loving this series so far

Great episode bud, looking forwards to the next! The mini nether idea behind portal sounds like a nice touch

Hi Blue! I’m loving the way this cave is going! Amazing… I think some Nether behind the portal will be great!

These are well made! Something I would love to see is an underground village where your villagers can thrive. I know a lot of ppl usually cram their villagers in halls so it would be cool to have a custom village area in your base

Gosh i love how the portal looks ♥♥ imagine you see through and see the outside, like sky, mountains or so.. that would be cool :D

Am looking forward to this episodes Thank you so much

That is one of the best hardcore series I've ever seen. Good job my man, keep it up!

Add some icy and snow texture to you cave corners👍❄️

some ideas for next Episode : Getting some Ancient Debris & Upgrade Your tool and Armor To Netherite ! Enchant your ChestPlate with Protection IV and Also Feather Falling 4 For your Leggings ! build an kinda Nether Waste shape biome behind your Lovely nether portal !

cant wait for the next episode, using this cave for our own twist and we love it

So far, your videos are really good and I enjoy watching them, can't wait to see what else you do with your hardcore world. I believe that feeling like Im looking into the nether behind the portal would be a really interesting idea, I think it would look really cool!

I like the idea of the nether behind the portal. Maybe with some nether trees, lava and a strider.

Beautiful builds and a very fun episode, looking forward to watching the next ones!

I love the little loading bars, super cute editing.

Love the little timelapses with goofy music

Build half of an amethyst geode on the other side of the nether and really light it up so it sparkles and shines. It would look so so cool with the purple of the nether portal and look like there's just a giant geode in your base :)

Putting a crimson forest behind the nether portal would look SICK

I recently stumbled upon your channel, and I just wanted to let you know that your content is extremely enjoyable and your videos very well done! Thank you for your work.

I really like that idea of building the nether behind the portal! That would be so cool!

I think that’s a really cool idea about the nether portal! I’m excited to see how it turns out 😃

I think that would be an interesting trading hall design, if you build a village in the trench between the twi cliffs, and the houses could be carved into the cliff, and we see just the fassades. Your nether portal idea is wonderful I don't have a better idea, because I think it's the best idea. Thank yo for the video, and have a nice day

The editing on these videos are actually great! Love the vids!

Love the Nether portal BlueNerd! An idea that might be neat would be some open cracks or shafts in the roof of your cave? Let in some natural light into the cave to help all that green grass grow? Can't wait to see what you come up with next though.

I'm speachless, your creativity and dedication is just outstanding!

I love that you put subtitles on your videos. Also amazing builds so far. 😌👍

Id love the next episode to be a building episode only, absolutely loove this organization build and how well You make it look. Also a nether wasteland with a lava lake would be sick on the backaide of the portal!

Brand new to the channel. Spectacular builds. Wonderful content. Thank you

This channel is cool your hardcore series is amazing I loved that

It would look pretty cool if you add a small waterfall and pool on the cliff you built

That’s why I love your videos, awesome designs, cool ideas, and subtitles for strangers :)

Add layers of purple and magenta glass behind for a deep feeling.

Behind the heather portal you should make all the biomes and have a lava lake also have a bastion and a fortress. Keep up the awesome work !!

Love the epic portal. Great content keep it up.

i love your behind your portal idea!!! you could do that and even bring some mobs through the portal!! also adding glass behind it to make sure they can’t come through it😄

I love the project and i am really impressed about how you dont loose your motivation and keep on the grind! Go on like that and dont change, love ya :)

This is just awesome… and the editing is awesome as well

just found the channel and now i’m obsessed 😂 i love your channel

You are seriously the best Minecraft builder out there! Love everything you create.

A big majestic waterfall coming through the cave would look rlly sick in my opinion

I do like the idea of a nether biome behind the portal, especially considering the piglins that wander through. But one thought I had was in keeping the shape of the wall behind it, and replacing the stone with skulk and amethyst. Give it a bit of a magical vibe that goes well with the glow berry vines.

You are such a great builder - everything you make ist awesome and I´m looking forward the next steps! Thank you for these incredible inspirations!

Perhaps you could have a fog effect behind the nether portal made of purple tinted glass. Its a cool trick which can be made by having multiple tinted glass block walls in front of one another. There should be be a block sized gap between each wall.

Truly humbled by your hardcore world starter base. Great work.

I think making the space behind the portal look mystical with amethyst and more overgrown tree roots would suit the cave better, like your looking through to a mystical/fantasy realm :)

A nether biome behind the portal would be so cool!

Just a small detail you might like, add glass layers behind the portal (magenta and purple or pink depends on your preference) and create a fog effect :3

new sub i liked your editing and hardwork❣

I am always so excited to see a new video from you, Blue!

What you should do, is put a massive tree right above the nether portal, that way it looks like the roots that are around the nether portal are connected to the massive tree.

that nether portal looks sick!! dude . i'm really inspired by your builds nerd . thanks for this awesome video!

"I've worked out a really cool design" > makes a big rectangle Lmao it looked really nice in the end though!

Hey blue despite all the critics im so so so hyped and I think many are as Well for your new building Tutorial series. Keep doing what you Love. Loved your castles. Greetings 🙃

Love the series

When transporting villagers, if you use a water bucket and pick it up/palce it forward, you go a lot faster, even at it's slowest pace. You can go up blocks too. Had to do a multiple thousand block relocation once for three villagers, that method made it possible.

Wow what a beautiful design! Yes make that portal nether worthy!

I was thinking... maybe a big amethyst geode behind the portal would look great? Those purple colors just fits so good with each other 🥰

A waterfall inside the cave can be a good idea, Love from Italy

i found your channel yesterday and i loved your videos so much that they literally made me want to drop everything and start playing minecraft again. (which is a good thing. and i did.) i love your channel and your builds!! i’m excited for the rest of this series!! 😙😙

another gorgeous video! I get tired watching how hard you work man but it's so worth it! If there's anything I'd like to see, and I agree that a mini nether biome would be awesome, it would be some kind of water feature I'm sure you already have planned!

You and your work blow me away everytime Blue. I have not played the game in a long time now but I am still so drawn to your videos and builds. Thank you for all your hard work and fantastic videos. ❤️

Everything I saw in this video was very satisfying. I really like your taste of building and I really think you should put a nether biome behind the portal just to make it look like you are going in it from the overworld.

Pretty awesome base so far - a little tip form mine: to prevent piglins form going into your base you could make the barrier in the nether so its not visible in the overworld or dig down one block place a snowberry in it and lay moss carpet over it - you can walk over without any damage or slow down but no mobs will cross this line - with that ways you dont have to use that visible fence. Greetings from Austria Elias :)

And yes, behind the portal you should build the nether. It is a really good idea

Damn you're a landscape god ❤️ if i was in your world i'd be pretty much spent my time walking around your builds such a nice series. . . SICK indeed

I really love how you build and add some detail And i love how you talk too

Another idea maybe for the nether portal is to make a fog effect with purple glass and glow stone behind it all. Would also be a cool effect

You can also add ores around the cave to make it look more real, as for behind the portal you can make a pigman farm but im not sure how well it would turn out.

Maybe a Sewer under the houses, which every house has a connection to it. Maybe some hidden rooms down there.

maybe a big pond under the bridge and kinda a big garden area around? and ik you said you would build tunnels to farms and trading halls and stuff but maybe you can do some decorative buildings here or there to make the cave look more like a community? that could be a good use of extra wall space too.
