Honestly, those horns would get used _very_ often and IN the proper context too... Now that I think about it, Joel and Ren are like the opposite ends of a spectrum. Ren is a single man who attracts married men with children like nothing, and Joel is a married man who gets single men flocking to him. Both are straight.
@@oktofry I'm pretty sure he's said otherwise. He's made a "ladies, gentlemen, get in line" joke once, but even in the Imp and Skizz podcast, he's talked about his obsession growing up with impressing women, never mentioning men. Maybe you're thinking of Martyn, who is gynesexual (meaning he likes femininity, regardless of actual gender)? Looked it up, and yeah, Ren's said he's an ally. Nothing about being queer himself.
The fact that Joel and Iskall hadn’t interacted before this season, and within a few months, are THIS “friendly” is impressive and just a rock solid monument to Joel’s charm.
This is Iskall trying to get attention. So contrived, it's creepy. Iskall had shared a story early in the season during livestream when viewers were asking him about the new member, Joel: Iskall had said that he didn't know anything about Joel, didn't know who he was, but boasted that Joel had left a comment in one of Iskall's videos years earlier to say that he (Joel) was a big fan (of Iskall's). Shortly after that, Iskall brands Joel with that other name, and makes impromptu appearances in Joel's videos, I would infer, to set up a narrative of friendship. Iskall seems to be fabricating some kind of "friendship" with Jimmy (Solidarity) as well. Putting on a show, publicly declaring feelings of love for Jimmy in chat during MCC, to ham it up for his viewers no doubt. Whatever Iskall is up to, buckle up, since it will be full of gaslighting and lies. He will be crowing about his new best friends by end of week. Grian's real life friends. Coincidence? If I were to make an educated guess, I'd say Iskall is desperately trying to be invited to the Life Series. He's published a vod on his second channel to plant the seed already. Devious.
I like how in Season 6-7 the anonymous pranks led to a full blown war, but in Season 10, the anonymous pranks just creates a full blown love harem instead.
Rake in those subs. ;) Been a little slow for your cameos on other people's vids on collabs there, bud. How come they're cutting you? I must admit -- failing to appear in a substantial way in any of Grian's videos is funny. Keep trying though; you'll think of something. Adding Joel to your "best friend" roster, I see. (Does he know yet?) Please don't leave any beheaded animals (or skat to mark your territory) if he doesn't respond right away. He has a real life and a real wife. You're creepy for a man approaching mid-life. 😊
One last thing: Joel is his real name. When you change someone's name, you take away their identity, sense of safety and security. He's new to Hermitcraft and unsure of his place on the server. Hearing his actual name will give him comfort. What you chose to do informs us of your intentions? Are you really trying to be a friend, or something else?
@@lancelot8438 it should be on the vodskall85 channel and it's titled something like "i think he just broke up with me..." - iskall linked it in his most recent hermit craft episode too.
@@it_steatime It should be like a half-dating game and more like a survival game where there are multiple Joels and they all try to kill you and the only way you can not get killed by them is if you name your character Lizzie
Joel is like that one guy who starts as a background character with no dialogue and ends up as a main character with a whole plot surrounding around him
I think is a victim of the Girlfriend/wife effect that dictates that u are more attractive and everyone want a bite of you when you already have a partner
Never did I think I'd see the day where there'd be a man more obsessed with Joel than Etho is! But we've seen it here folks! Everyone is just falling in love with him, must be his super tall height!
@@aaishaismail5717 Well we are talking about Iscall, and Joel, so we need to use the apropriat scale for them. I would say mildly. Maybe a bit to the medium-side, but not fully.
I now want an event where Etho, Iskall and who else might join the "I love Joel club" hold a competition to woo him and win him over. I can just see Joel being forced to sit through it and being incredibly sassy
Iskall would be pulling in all the work but Etho will give him a compliment once after being sassy the entire time and Joel will choose him as the winner
I always find the obsession bits funny but Iskall this episode, combined with Gem’s commentary, is a particular highlight. Felt a lot of hysterical horror at the Joel doll comment.
He actually send many many more, if you don’t watch his episodes and vods, you won’t know, but he has sent more than double of what we see his yoel’s episode
@@kshitizjain7889 And the original idea was to make it seems like it was Etho, but then he tweeted the x on Twitter so the prank failed before it could even started.
@@gemsngoldafter MCC this Saturday he joined a call with few other hermits and probably didn't realize they were still streaming and he straight up said the word "dick" in all of their streams lol
Iskall: give me twenty diamond blocks for an apartment Gem: dont give iskall any of your diamonds, its a scam Joel: I'll give you two diamonds, take it or leave it Iskall: (takes it)
@@niello5944 just because he watched him doesn’t mean they’ve met or had interactions. Iskall said at the start of the season that he didn’t know Joel and made the effort to go and say hello and play him up
Iskall has an end goal in mind. Anyone have a theory on what it is? These events are hugely exaggerated and largely superficial. Remember the drama and anguish when Iskall killed The Swede? All forgotten now. Also, recall that Joel and Grian are real life friends, so Joel would have been briefed on Hermits.
If only Etho took that hint 🤣 he’s too obsessed…. Also the “I only love one person like that” part was so sweet 😭 (maybe Etho needs to see this which he will because he watches all your videos)
for the crossing staircases, it might be interesting to do something based off the nihonbashi bridge in tokyo! i dont know if you got to visit it during your trip, but its one of the few surviving structures from the edo period, which is now mostly covered by an expressway. it could be a cool crossover between your traditional and more cyberpunk styles, with the lower older part marking the original center of the city and the intersection of japan's 5 major roads. just something to consider for your future designs, great video as always!
When you build your statue for Iskall you must - MUST! - include a significant amount of diorite. The internal conflict for Iskall will be wonderful to see.
Get Cleo to do Iskall's armor stand of you. Charge him twice as much as she charges you. Get her to add Etho to the scene, obsessing over you. Tell Iskall that Etho might be searching for someone, and to mail him the messages in the future.
Why is joel an anime protagonist? Lizzie would be the childhood friend he ends up with eventually Etho is the tsundere And iskall is like a chill yandere
