GREEN TERRACOTTA." random block pallettes. and yet, every time, if you just trust the process, it'll turn out to be one of the most beautiful buildings you've ever seen in this video game. absolutely absurd, good work, 10/10

Now watch it with a fever. It's a time

The building feels to me like an older Japanese apartment in the quiet outskirts of town. Something about it feels really nostalgic, like an older Studio Ghibli movie. I love the use of the green and magenta terracotta, they aren't colours I would have thought to put together but they work well. It's been so enjoyable how much everyone has been online and interacting this season, it truly feels like friends having a good time and enjoying themselves, which makes it even nicer to watch.

I looooove the way that bdubs, joel, and impulse are each focusing their builds in different styles of the broader cyberpunk aesthetic. Impulse is going hard into the cybernetics, bdubs is going hard into the street anarchy run-down punk aesthetic, and it looks like Joel is going into the japanese style that's deeply integrated with the cyberpunk aesthetic broadly. Very cool

I really like how well the three different cyberpunk styles blend!! I saw someone over on Tumblr saying that they felt like the torii gate up to Joel’s place adds a layer to the story of the city: traditionally, torii gates are on paths leading up to shrines and holy places. It creates a sort of class divide that meshes well with the dystopian themes: up on the hill, closer to the gods, is the well-kept fancy upper class area, but beneath that is the chaotic factories and rundown apartments of the vast majority of the inhabitants. Truly an incredible environ taking shape!

bdubs, you got the potion permit and you're working on a distopian cyberpunk city, i think a meth factory would fit in perfectly

Bdubs and impulse going giant scale in the foreground and Joel being smaller but more detailed in the back really sells the perspective on this whole Japanese dystopia scene, I love it already

Had an idea for lights around this dingy dystopian part of the big cyberpunk area, maybe something to do with glow lichens used akin to mold growing? It already looks very rundown, dirty, and unkempt. So you could totally use like moss, glow lichen, and something whiter with the glow lichen to look like patches of mold that has somehow inherited the glowy neon aesthetic of impulses section.

you are the only youtubers ads I don't skip right through, I sincerely hope you charge handsomely for the extra effort you put in than your traditional ad read

24:35 I have heard plenty of strange noises from plenty of the Hermits, but that laugh was something else! Sounded like a seagull.

Seeing Impulse's, Bdub's, and Joel's cyberpunk cities converge together will be really cool

Bdubs, Impulse, and Joel all building close together in different styles that share some themes is going to be something incredible when it's done.

Honestly, terracotta will probably give you the best ROI. You could set up a dripstone-based clay block farm, and you could pair that with a bamboo farm to power the furnaces to smelt the terracotta. Give the people what they want: more flawless redstone from Bdubs.

Random philosophical pondering: the fact that many are able in the modern world to pursue art and joy the way bdubs and his friends do is rather encouraging. The world is a better place for it imo.

For the road, I recommend building it out of slabs and putting soul soil under it. When you have soul speed enchant on your boots, it will look as if you walk faster on a road! Plus, mobs won't spawn.

Bamboo is easy to fully automate, plus once you get a string farm you can sell string and scaffolding. You can use the crafter to make all of the bamboo blocks as well. Slightly more elaborate is the plain terracotta. You can turn stone into moss, moss into rooted dirt, rooted dirt into mud, and finally mud into clay, which you can then blow up, auto craft, and smelt

@GSBarlev

2 ай бұрын

Scaffolding is also a great fuel, for terracotta smelting.

The editing on these videos is absolutely immaculate. I find the juxtaposition between the light, whimsical nature of the background music and the imagery of this run-down apartment building fascinating.

22:30 Maybe add the occasional mud block with a fern in it to make it look like the road is cracked and has weeds growing in it? Or, this could be the kind of future dystopia where nothing really grows.

Obviously the royal purple is and has been the most expensive and luxurious commodity. Only true royalty is worthy of majestic adornment.

Although Etho's setup may sound a bit silly, I really really really respect him for it and I would not have it any other way. He really doesn't need anything else. His mic and his computer is all he really needs to keep putting out the content that I have loved for years. Buying a stand is a scam, keep using your tissue box B)

The cutting to distractions after saying you wont, and the ad both had me rolling

the ad bit was top level. the acting and storytelling were so good

I would love to see someone hold one of the wools hostage and have all the wools kept together with only one missing. You could make it a “Royal Wool” shop and claim it does all sorts of great things and sell it for way more than the rest of the wool, just trying to get someone to pay you absurd money for the last remaining wool permit not under their control.

Two things: the way bdubs uses colors is very familiar from the perspective of a painter! Colors that in theory wouldn't work together, but in reality blend to create an interesting and well rounded image AND I wanted to compliment the transitions and the music choices during those transitions (and during building). The energy is delicious

That apartment building is the best thing ever made in minecraft. Im dead serious. that was perfection. damn im moved.

So these builds tell me that Impulse is the big (and evil) corporation in this dystopia, while Bubbles is just the regular guy trying to get by.

If you were worried about lighting up your area and trying to bridge the gap between yours and impulses, you build some futuristic drones flying above that use shroomlights or another light source and spread those throughout the area

Grian fishing 10000 times to get one mending book while Bdubs is just like "Mending takes the mining off Minecraft"

I believe that kind of building is generally referred to as a 5-over-1, where the bottom floor is structurally concrete whereas upper ones are wooden. It tends to be a symbol of fast-casual architecture and rapid gentrification

BDUBS - Keep Bamboo and String. Find out who has Scaffolding and trade the Wool or Potions. Combine Bamboo with String and make Scaffolding, and sell all of them in the same shoppe! 🤗 Also keep Terracotta, and the Podzol/Mycelium, as those are easy to harvest.

I have been absolutely loving how you've been editing these videos. They are so beautiful and relaxing. Also, I finally got my game to look like yours and I'm in love. Thank you for sharing the settings and mods etc.

5:31 and 8:14 i just loved the part where bdubs just went around and helped other hermit's redstone with his superior redstone prowess and best selling shop: def terracotta

That "Trust me!" at 0:45 left the "I'm not Etho!" just hanging in the air for all to see. :D

A campfire under the cauldrons on the roof would make it look like they are active exhaust vents!

Okay, my guess for most profitable is bamboo. It's an easy farm to set up, no hand-mining is required, and it's literally one of the most recent blocksets. A lot of people are going for a rustic vibe, and the bamboo blocks definitely hit that angle in a big way! So I think bamboo is gonna be your cash cow.

Watching Bdubs do his thing is like watching an oilpainter dab seemingly random blobs of color on to a canvas and when you step back it suddenly turns out to be an incredibly detailed and lifelike portrait. Only with buildings.

The word you're looking for when you say lightness is "value". Artists often use it to refer to the relative degree of lightness or darkness of a particular color.

Bdubs! String + Bamboo = Scaffolding! You could corner the market and have a significant income from the builders and redstone guys!

Actually, I think the Kleenex box proves that Etho is a developer and a good gamer. It is so funny.

14:40 B-Dubs looks he's letting off a little steam before bed.

Dyes definitely sound like the most valuable permit this season, given how many permits depend on having dyes ... From far away, that box like 80% looks like a dirt cube:P

I didnt tune in to bdubs a lot over past seasons but i gotta say this style of editing creates such a fantastic viewing experience!!! I love the zoomed out nature shots a lot! Glad i stopped by in this season

BdoubleO, I am begging you...PLEASE start a revolution against Grian. This permit office thing is the perfect opportunity to flip the script and revolt against him. He is always the one revolting but now you, the king maker, can revolt against the machine! Or at least find somebody else to lead the revolution. If you elect a revolution leader I think it should be pearl. I have some ideas on how you can revolt, and the first one is to fill out sooo much paperwork that he is flooded with permit change requests. Find your leader, get a group together and flood him. :)

Who knew SquareSpace had the budget for a Joshua Graham cameo. Good job BDubs!

I LOVE how that first building looks. Can’t wait for the interior! I hope it keeps the rundown feel

If you want a fun way to do potions team up with Zedaph, his combrewters are great.

i have been obsessed with this building for the past week

Only you could make a worn-down apartment block look *pretty*. I'm so happy you're going to be working on the city with impulse!

9:00 Bro, go have some fun with your friends. Thats what we are here for

I think that the bamboo will be the most profitable with the terracotta and potions next since you got ALL of the bamboo stuff.

Bdubs is the only creator I don’t skip the ads for. They’re just too entertaining to skip 😂

The difference in temperaments between yours and Grian's horses is astounding lol. I think Grian needs a lesson in horse training.

That building is amazing. Completely different that what you typically see in minecraft. Really nailed that rundown urban feel

i can't even express how much I DON'T want to watch a commercial! But i will just to watch this guy be funny.

Honestly looks like one of those long-forgotten buildings from Adventure Time, leftover from the Human civilisation long ago.

Impulse's build is very techno-future, and Joel's is going for Neo-Tokyo, but Bdubs brings the punk to cyber punk with this. It certainly feels like it would be entirely in place in cyberpunk 2077 or other similar dingy cyberpunk cettings.

That cyber punk build looks awesome but it also gives me slums vibes with the dirty colors. you could even add some dripy ceilings or broken lights

BDubs got bamboo but he's not getting included in the wood collective? He should work with that. Bdubs Bam-Best Wood Variant store maybe?

Holy crap Bdubs making a cyberpunk city is going to be amazing. I can't wait to see more of this project

The magic of Bdubs is that he can make you laugh while an ad is rolling

I actually think that having elevation in the city would be very cool, not just hills and stuff but retaining walls and steps to get up places. It would add a lot more opportunity to have little crooks and cranny’s and in my mind that’s always a win

You could turn the garage area into a run down work area. Workbenches tool walls all sorts of different stuff. Maybe some flickering lights in the garage. Looks great!!!

You know I'm not super concerned about progress. I honestly am LOVING all the interactions between the hermits such fun stuff!

Your little building is sublimely creative. Wow.

“You didn’t think Bdubs was gunna get funky on you, did you?” Bdubs, yes we did

The city is gone be cool! If you guys haven’t planned in detail already, I would consider getting together and laying things out. Throw down markers for the roads and some rectangles for where buildings will go. Then you guys can both chip away at it over time and things will connect fluidly!

Idk if u are aware of this small building trick, but it would help in the dystopian themed city u have going on: use a kelp block with green candles on-top to create ‘trash bags’ which you can stack in alleyways etc.

The way you capture things in minecraft is so unique it's like watching moive

every time i see your builds i am just amazed by your control over your creations! especially that tree of yours. i've never seen any build quite like it and it is incredible

the way you’re editing this season gives me major ghibli film vibes and i am here for it

This feels so much like the buildings in Stray. Absolutely beautiful!

It would be cool to have a blinking streetlight outside of your apartment building. And some billboards? Maybe a dumpster outside too

Nah the square space segment 😭, "The doctor said not to cry because the tears will burn " killed me then the groan after that 😂😂

This was the coolest thumbnail for a Minecraft KZread video that I've ever seen. It's so beautifully that I wanted to learn more about it and how I could recreate something like it's style.

That squarespace ad, wonderful acting skills, pure fun, love it.

I think BDubs, sir. You have change the way to build in Minecraft once again. A dystopian city would look ridiculously amazing and innovative for other builds. This is something I never seen and I know for sure you have started the many different ways to build outside of the normal cyberpunk or medieval builds

09:25 ... Pumpkin heads EVERYWHERE in the replay mod :D

If your area is a rundown part of town some lighting ideas: fires in metal barrels or trash cans, flickering street lamps ( maybe some out of place more advanced technology ones around shops etc), red emergency/ exit lights in alleys. Maybe Emergency vehicles and/or a burning car if you want to get real rough. I also think grass, vines, moss would be more present than in other areas, nature kind of reclaiming buildings and roads that aren't getting repair and maintenance.

Perhaps as a way to enter your other shops, the Hermits might deposit one string for the doors to open. Your string shop could then be named "Stringing You Along."

Maybe for some lighting in the dystopian building you could use glow lichen? Keeps the light levels above 1 to prevent mob spawning, but keeps the light level low enough to have the dark, dingy, feel to the build

This is the most incredible detailing and realism in minecraft.

Me: It looks crazy Bdubs: The colours blend very well Me: They blend very well fantastic job

You could blow up a pyramid-shaped hole in the terrain about the 1/4 to 1/5 the size of the plot's total area, then turn it into a kind of mining/industrial facility.

the eye acting under the bandaids headwrapping was 👌
