I agree with what you said about it being kinda sad about the empty servers. Seeing all these builds that people dedicated days and weeks to with their friends while having a great time, their community now scattered to the wind and builds sitting mostly forgotten on an empty server on Minecraft, eventually never being visited again. All these memories lost to time makes me nostalgic for a time I never took part in. Thanks for posting this.

I've been part of communities in games that have eventually moved on, but you're right, it just isn't the same afterwards @NeverObsolete64 . Minecraft shows the very real impact of those communities on its world with building, which makes the loss of community feel a little more real than other games that consist of worlds/maps that are static, regardless of whether people are on or not. I think that's why Minecraft has a unique sense of sadness that hit me in this video despite never playing on random MC MP servers, though Kaktus is right that it allows people to take inspiration years later.

Yeah i thought and felt the same. About half way through the video i imagined myself going through and looking at all the amazing things that took weeks or months to create and how almost nobody ever sees it... But i then realized that the server is still running despite having almost 0 players is nice to think about because those massive structures and monuments are still being honoured/respected in a way. All of these servers having almost no players really have no reason to continue running, but they do and the memories made in them will live on

Imagine that people used to play on those servers like 12 years ago and they are still alive. Totally Incredible that we can see what the servers used to be and the nostalgia also hits hard.

It wasn't very well known, but it had a solid 50 or so players that were active on it. I became good friends with a lot of the players and we even had our own guild and had a really cool base inside a mountain a couple thousand blocks from spawn. I think I played on there religiously for a year or more. From what I remember, the server host died in an accident and 2 days later the server was just gone. All that time, all those people met and relationships were suddenly just gone. I played on and off since then, but the day that server was gone so was my appetite for Minecraft. Even today, I still occasionally wish I could just join that server one last time.

Ouch it even hurts me to read all of this ... And people say that games don't have an impact ...

There's something special about how old MC servers elicit this feeling of liminality and that sense of wonder that exploring ancient ruins gives. Somehow the old builds in an abandoned server gives off this feeling of deep time, like it aggregates value, lore and history to the world. I would really like to replicate this in a server with friends, playing for years until at long last we mostly stop playing and all that's left are the memories imprinted on the ruins we left behind, like in that Shelley's poem: "Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!" Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away."

Something pretty specific that I like is exploring abandoned beta 1.8 servers. There's something about the 1.8 additions like melons, stone bricks, glass panes, giant mushrooms, etc being used everywhere that i really like. + beta 1.8/early release is technically what I grew up watching and is the most nostalgic for me ;P

something about old school megabuilds. Its before designs got hyper complicated and detailed. Mind you the current designs people make are works of art but there was something special about seeing huge structures with only 1-2 design aspects repeated. Also, paths. The older style way of connecting builds together with paths in a close proximity as people built out is probably the most nostalgic part. We almost never see that style anymore.

Theres just something about the old alpha and beta styles of building that is just so irresistibly beautiful. They feel like actual works of art as opposed to the common utilitarian bases, or the wildly extravagant base designs you see so much of today.

Thanks for taking me back, I miss those days.

Looking at this now is kind of revisiting those memories but in a new light, this is a great video.

Woah! RetroMC! I regularly play there! It’s my go to chill and hang out server.

There was a specific balance that always hit me the best with servers of the pre-1.8beta era. Places that had a nice spawn, but it wasn't huge - you could still explore them for a few moments and feel nicely secluded in a crafted place. But both the spawn and the server wasn't full on developed to the point where it felt like so much of history has already been written yet. There was always a sense of non-purpose felt when walking around the first thousand block range from spawn and everywhere was already picked out and processed. The only server I played back then that catered that feeling was the old SMP Blocktopia server, which was a community I heavily enjoyed playing in with their classic 0.30 servers - while I played those Zombie Survival & Lava Survival servers the most, the beta SMP server still has the fondest memories to me for just the feel I had interacting with what was there. Making my own basic house, and exploring what other people were currently making; usually with the builders offline due to my aussie timezone. Also a plugin I really missed from those days was like a treasure hunting one. You'd craft a compass, right click it, and then it'll point you into a direction and tell you how close you are to a chest of some generated goods to take. It was probably one of the main contributors that got me into a passion for exploration.

I find this interesting in a sad, sort of lonely type of way. These old servers still being active after so much time has passed. Makes me regret deleting my worlds. I didn't play Minecraft on PC till I was like 16-17 years old, most of my Minecraft experience came from the old Xbox 360 days. I played alot with my dad, sister and brother when we were way younger. My dad initially bought the game back when it freshly released to console, and it was mind blowing to all of us...in a fun adventurous way. We would assign tasks like building, material grabbing, farming and the like to each other every in game day. Occasionally my siblings and I would sneak up and play late and night into the early morning on weekends, and our dad would join us when he woke up. Or it'd be the other way around lmao. The last world my dad and siblings played on still exists. He hast played Minecraft since I was like 13-14 years old, about 9 years or so (he says he doesn't like it anymore) and has long since moved to Playstation, but I have access to his old Microsoft account, so every once in awhile I pop in. I left him a sort of happy/sad farewell about him not playing anymore. I hope he see's it one day. That one world we all had played on has so many memories attached to it. So many more could have been made if he had picked it up again.

I am still playing Minecraft but if I see those old Minecraft version i get a lot of hard and good flashbacks to my childhood

and now imagine how many server worlds there are which currently off and we will never be able to see them again.

Lol, great reference I wish I'd thought of that one myself!

It'd be really cool to save the world file for all of these, or have a big collection of em. So many great builders work and talent go into this kinda stuff and a lot of cool shit is abandoned. Like those griefed areas are so much more interesting looking that 2b2ts

Our server is vanilla and been running for about 5 years now. Me and some friends started in 2019 when working night shift and never stopped. We're building a giant airport inspired by Changi Airport. We've built a massive city all on vanilla survival.

I wish my childhood minecraft server was still up, I would love to pop into my farm and look around my bedrock layer mine that I dug out before I knew better

As a 14 almost 15 year vet I wish I could go back in times, this brought back alot of nostalgia. I'm happy the game is still updated to this day, I cant believe the game is almost 20 years old. I'm old lol
