Have a look Twitter water Munch what’s water Munch’s handle water Munch oh it’s two hes uh yeah tomorrow 7:00 p.m. tomorrow 700 p.m. is the wedding and for those you that don’t know I am still holding on to a very specific Bounty so we’ll have think we’ll have think We’ll decide what we’re going to do with that information but we still do have a bounty that we need to cash in on we’ve had it for quite some time held on to it for a special moment what’s more special than a wedding day huh H we have to See tomorrow at the start of the jingle jam or good luck yeah but you got to remember not the world doesn’t revolve around the Ys cast I bet the majority of people that Watch Pirates SMP have never watched the Y cast ever probably or if they had it’s Been a long time ago will you be streaming the wedding tomorrow I think so I’m not invited but I’ll be there mhm this is a proper ship graveyard isn’t it holy look at this thing mean might this down on my map where’s my map let’s put this down as Death Ship graveyard Nice there we go lovely right surely there is going to be a bit of Loot on these things here I mean really the goal for today isn’t loot the goal for today is mapping out the remainder of the area it’s not all that long until I head Off to Bristol which means that once I go to Bristol the day I get back from Bristol um um I think I could do maybe like one more pirate stream and then on the 9th we’ve got MCC and then the 10th is the finale so we we don’t have a Whole lot of time to play Pirates anymore so I really want to sort of enjoy it whilst it’s here okay oh how did that Miss damn uh let see oh there’s a way up here there we go oh wow the bride to be is here maybe I should go have a chinwag Find out if I’m invited or not okay doesn’t seem like there’s any loot here let’s carry on uh oh oh the boat was an anchor that whole time silly me right how we looking so mapwise yeah I re if we knock that out and then we can do a through route Here and see what we see that sounds like a good plan happy VOD 50 in the archives oh is it really this is this is stream 50 of pirates no way I think that’s more than I ever did rat streams maybe I’m not sure oh my God that’s so many vods yeah It really is I think between sickness and like busyness with life and all that sort of stuff I just haven’t had and also to be honest editing secret life is such a Time sync um I’ve just not had any time to keep the chop down versions of pirates going but I think between Bristol getting back from Bristol and Christmas I will try to put out an episode every couple of days so that pirates is basically caught up by Christmas or maybe by the New Year something like like that but the the jumps in the amount of vods that are covered per video is Getting way bigger like way way bigger it may even get to a point where I only put in like events you know what I mean which would then help me jump significantly so I can jump forward like six seven vods at a time or something Like that there were 37 vods for at Holy Holy Moly I’ll tell you what I’ve not done I’ve not uploaded the video saying that was streaming Pirates I feel like I should I love the end of this song BU bum also yesterday’s live stream was potentially my favorite one I’ve Ever done I think just the game was right the the collaborators were right it it was just great you know what I mean it was just so so good it was just the right amount of everything I had some people tweet me afterwards saying that apparently we had A very different experience to um kind of gree in and impulse in those guys but honestly they’re sweats so I think they were coming in probably with a far more critical eye than we were um yeah I think they um I think they very much have a different take and a Different approach to um to playing games you’re getting married you are you’re getting married were you are oh you are making preparations are you are you making all of your gift bags has everybody got a party favor I hope the catering’s good is pirate Martin invited or or What you we doing favors and food yes yes okay brilliant oh of course he’s invited fantastic well that’s good to hear pirate Martin is going to be going to to the to the wedding to the shindig he’s been a ride or die since day one he has yeah he has looked out For your best interest as well even though Jeffree still wants to turn water Munch into a uh or pirate water into a into a worm but hey if you want to live in that terrarium go for It the rats better get some catering too he chat I’ll give you my scraps there’ll be some weird veggie on it that I’m not going to want and you guys can have that all right so simmer Down I have nothing against worms yeah I don’t have anything against like flies that fly around but I wouldn’t want to be one you know what I mean you can not have beef with something but also not want to be it that’s what I’m saying I mean if you’re Cool then you know what live your life pop off right let’s see uh let’s go around this way then so we got the Sandro confession Island so if I just go straight south of here then we’ll be good season 3 God’s SMP dude do you realize how cool that would be can you Imagine if they did an S SMP that was kind of centered around like uh mythology like you know almost a bit like that game Phoenix Rising which I really would like to get back to playing actually I really enjoyed that game before I got banned on Twitch for playing it 15 minutes Early but an S SMP centered around that would be really cool I think the problem is though is that I think everybody would have to be very brushed up on the topic I think that would be where it would probably fall short for a lot of People is I think there’d be some real like history Buffs I say history like it’s real but yeah you know what I’m saying oh yeah Ros is logging in as well all the wedding preparations are happening BL yeah now look we got this big stretch here I’m thinking if I go to here and then drive diagonally through it surely I will find everything right I haven’t seen Ros in game for like a hot minute it’s been a while what the is that what am I looking at there that is an absolutely monstrously god-sized tree what is that Waa hold on a minute what am I looking at Here holy moly what kind of tree is this tell you what that is some kind of promoted accelerated growth isn’t it makes me wonder whether there’s some kind of special power source here you thinking what I’m thinking maybe it’s time to shoot Loot and scoop quite Literally what is this thing do you reckon you can climb It God man the frogs are going crazy here I’m waiting for the sunset Stone to burn it down I think as long as I leave it in my backpack I think we’ll be Good look at this thing surely there’s a crypt here right is that water it is I feel like this would be the perfect location for a crypt typically the crypts go underground though or beneath the Seas so if there were to be one it would be around here somewhere I’m Sure how’s this never been written about before I mean I guess this is in the the northeastern aisles the Uncharted area of the map damn this thing is ginormous some kind of like God tree I’m going quickly put a marker on my map here it’s even got like its own entire biome God Tree there we are Holy so save me some time uh mad spy is there anything at the top of this tree or is it not worth a climb up I don’t really care about a view so much just wondering if it’s worth exploring this area or if this is just like to look Pretty is this just to look cool oh that’s right run in doubt put down two torches strong man moves nothing here it’s a cancelled event spot damn wellow I guess we’ll head back to the boat then oh God I do need to be careful here actually I’ve just Remembered that I don’t have a bed set right now uh yep please don’t land on a lily [Applause] pad WTF is that fov yeah it’s Quake Pro I’ve never in my life played on Quake Pro except for on this s SMP and the only reason I play on Quake Pro is because When I’m sailing my ship I have a mod that gives me uh slightly wider well not even it doesn’t even change the fov it physically moves the third person camera way back um so it does this look but if you’re not on qu Pro then it doesn’t Actually make that much of a difference so if I play on my usual 90 like that is coing over the shoulder but when I get in my boat you’ll see just how little it actually contributes to um to being out of the way right where’s my ship gone there it Is so look so when I get in my ship here look so with fov 90 doesn’t really do much difference compared to the third person that we were getting here so when you crank it up to Quake Pro then I do the far away mod you start to get a Little bit more distance and especially when you start to move as well makes things a lot more a lot more zoomed out which is nice right then so we found the god tree uh I guess we just keep going around it and go diagonal I think I’ve got to try and Veer out a bit more I’m getting too close to all these lily Pads radio this Sunday you know what I’m not 100% sure just yet I don’t have anything major planned uh this week I’m going to potentially say no only because I’m going away to um I’m going away to Bristol hopefully on Monday so on Sunday I think I’d almost Rather not stream because then I can spend some time with Nessy and the girls and stuff like that cuz I’m not going to see them for a few days so at the moment I have no plans to do the show on Sunday even though I would like to it may be in Case if I don’t do another one until I get back from um back from old um oh I’m going the wrong way here hold on oh wait there’s another is there another Island that way or is that just extend extended of this if you’re still alive recording Secret life in Bristol I I would have to yeah if I was still alive which it’s not something I’m the biggest fan of cuz just I don’t I don’t like the setups in the office generally I don’t I don’t like the microphones and stuff like that not a not a Fan right which way we headed west y there we go is that the one go that way the Y’s microphones are not the greatest yeah I’m even like half tempted to like take my sh sm7b with me I think the microphones are okayish it’s just they they’re certainly not on the Same level as what I’m using Currently I could have sworn there was a was a point not that long ago where they asked us in the Discord who would like to get some gear from Sha so maybe maybe all the officers have been King out with them now or something unless that was More for like the the pickaxe podcasty sort of network maybe that was more that Taking your own microphone is a bit Petty well not really it’s not Petty it’s me having consistency in the products that I put out if I suddenly sound drastically different especially if it’s for the finale as well like that’s the episode that’s likely to get the most Traction I want it to sound like it’s a consistent product all the way through I think a lot of the the way that they record at the Ys office is they just put the microphone in the weirdest place like so many of them so it’s it’s like a regular you know like a Microphone but they all have it at like head height and then like slightly up and off to the right so it’s almost it’s like basically almost at like like forehead level and I’ve never understood why any of them do that it genuinely is always always thrown Me the whole time I recorded there and the microphone was always like down in front of my mouth you know where you would speak oh hello Sorry I’m sorry just you know what don’t even don’t even say anything chat don’t even say Anything oh my God speaking of petty um I don’t know why this reminded me of it but there was somebody uh in my Tumblr inbox like properly popping off about the whole thing where somebody said like oh like something about fan art with glasses and I was like oh I don’t really Imagine my characters with them like so not in fan art if that’s all right there’s a really passive comment and then like some people shared their like you know distaste for that take and then I sort of replied saying like well at the end of the day people can do Whatever the hell they want I was just saying that if the choice was mine I wouldn’t and if you want to if you want to do that great if not then no worries um yeah I’ll take a bed with with me nice um in fact I might even sleep on That cuz it’s stting to get a bit dark um so there was me thinking that was all settled and put to bed and then like somebody like came into my inbox and was just like proper like fiery they were like you’re too close to the community and it’s making some people Uncomfortable and the fact you think you can say blah blah blah blah blah blah blah and I was like bro somebody is too deep somebody is f too deep I didn’t even bother replying to it with like a you know a you know I I didn’t reply to it on Tumblr or Whatever it’s like if they cared about the topic that much they would have done a little Teensy investigate to look at my page to see that I’d already kind of gone oh yeah you know what Fair Point that wasn’t me laying down a rule or trying to Witch Hunt it was literally Just me saying what my preference was are Martin s geny Desa hi geni geny Desa or geny Desa uh I have uh oh I could only read some of that I can see gameu and then what’s the next fit uh hold no wait wait wait wait wait uh so Martin Gen M ooh and then it’s K oh kab video game this is that is that bit before it it’s the the Ki after Minecraft after or I don’t Know Ichiban skner what does ichiban skner mean I remember the the phrase itchy man from area 11’s old song There itchy Man Zero one foot for to two to the side every single time whoa oh itchy ban is my favorite thing H so what is itchy ban the word for Favorite I didn’t know that first favorite yeah cuz of course itch itch’s one also does ban mean favorite then so wait so your sentence then said what it said Minecraft ity Ban are you saying that Minecraft’s your favorite video game is that what you were Saying Hey L ladra welcome good you are uh can I climb up this building by the way yeah I keep meaning to get back into doing my Japanese to be honest I can imagine that throughout the Christmas period and uh in the New Year I’ll probably really dig into my Japanese Again cuz I’m not going to have any video series on the go other than like editing a bit of pirates um streaming will be keeping up as usual but obviously streams are very much I kind of come on and do them and that’s that so I’m hoping that I’m going to Have some more free time to kind of get the the ball rolling on it again I’m Japanese major so I use you and make sure you’re still up to it oh dude so yeah so I did it really solidly through the latter end of lockdown um And a little bit afterwards but then I think I took off about a year um so I think I did it for about like 10 11 months and then I had about a year and a bit off of it and then just recently uh we learned that one of Amelia’s Nursery Teachers uh is from Japan which is really cool um she’s from Chima which is just outside of Tokyo to the east um and yeah basically she showed us about a show called aan man which is quite funny um have you not seen aan give it a give it a look it’s it’s such A silly absurd show I do need this gunpowder stuff um but she also gave us like these really cool little tiles that you can you can play with which is fun I understand Ki through Chinese and that alone yeah cuz that’s the thing right there’s a lot of shared language Between Japanese and Chinese cuz isn’t it a case of um it was people that moved away from China to the land that was then Japan they took the language with them and then they kind of kept some parts of it transformed some others I think they changed a lot of Pronunciations of things but they um kept like the symbols you know what I mean like they kept the Ki characters but they have like sun yomi and onomi things is that a church that’s a bloody church I think oh my God wait wait wait wait wait wait y you’re with me you’re there’s not is there ah ah no you’re with there’s no way is there oh my God there is there’s a 2023 hiel blog oh my God yo wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait this this is very exciting okay right hello the team has Been making steady progress since our update in the summer we’ve been working hard at merging our Creative Design and te technical efforts into a single team Endeavor focused on delivering hiel before we share more let’s recap the last three years of hil’s development before that I am just going to quote Retweet this and um and do it oh God wait wait wait the Christmas summoning circles always Work lovely all right cool um in the first half of 2021 we identified that we needed to redevelop high Tail’s Tech fundamentals in order to deliver a game that meets the expectations of players and creators after a period of Investigation we committed to building a new custom engine oh my God and brought on a development partner to help us do so as this was uh as this effort was underway we continued to make progress in other areas um we began actively prototyping and play testing new takes on an adventure sorry on adventure content player movement creative tools creature Ai and combat we Also expanded our character personalization approach doubling down on our players identities as creative world shaping beings called avatars yeah they used a lot of language regarding avatars last time I’m still of the mindset that I think this thing is going to come out and I think is going to feel Like the halfway home between Minecraft and Roblox it’s going to kind of have the development tools of Roblox it’s going to have the blocky style of Minecraft but I think it’s going to have the Polish of something like UE FN and like fortnite engine and stuff but bit You know far beyond that I think it’s going to be a really standout platform so even if people aren’t super stoked about like the adventure mode and stuff like that um I think it’s going to be I think it’s going to be pretty cool I like it oh say Rosen Jan uh as 2021 Drew to a close we showed off some of the progress as part of Riot’s under City night events um cuz if you don’t know basically Riot games acquired um hiil as it kind of brought them under the umbrella which given that they have league and valerant and t uh TFT and stuff like that they don’t mess around um yeah I don’t think hiel is dead it just got announced uh too early in its lifespan well the thing is is the version of hiel that we saw when the announcement trailer came out that would have come out by now but it they Obviously had the stuff with Riot going on and the game expanded and got bigger than they expected and it completely changed the timeline entirely it basically became a whole new game um which maybe should have bumbled under the surface but yeah H I see overhype well no not really overhype it’s they Had a lot of pipe which meant they generated a lot of interest and then they got business partners come in who decided they wanted to throw money at it and obviously what they’re trying to do is they’re trying to make this I think what they’re trying to do is they’re Trying to Future proof it right from all the wording they’ve used it seems as though they’re trying to make it so it is like it’s got an adventure mode which is kind of You’ll Play it once and maybe never again is my guess um although having said that you play Minecraft over And over again don’t you campaign wise um but it it did seem as though theirs was more narratively driven which I was quite excited for um and then they’re going to have obviously the multiplayer version which will be like you know miname servers and stuff like that cuz Obviously they stem from uh from Hypixel um but then I think they’re really going in on the development tools and like a Marketplace of sorts and stuff um so yeah it’s good I get minor Cube World Vibes uh maybe in terms of timeline but I think in terms of final delivered product I Don’t think it’s going to be as underwhelming as cube world was like cube world was always very feature uh deprived wasn’t it it pretty much looked like the little teaser images W would put out but you didn’t really get much beyond that and it was very sequential Like as in you know go further out monsters change color numbers get bigger and that was kind of the game Loop and it wasn’t all that great um but yeah anyway right let’s rock cor um taking advantage of the extra pre-production times afforded uh by the engine change We also began a far-reaching creative reexploration of the world of orbis the setting of High’s Adventure experience we’ll dig deeper into one aspect of that uh reexploration later in this post sick love this image by the way it’s nice um these efforts creative and Technical continued into 2022 in our summer update That year um we talked more about the reasoning behind the engine change see some new biomes and landscapes for orbits and reintroduced our vision for hiel as a whole meanwhile as Redevelopment continued we uh we dive deep into every aspect of orbit as we began to prototype new Advanced building Tools more sophisticated V effects which I’ve seen those on socials by the way they look awesome um and a Very Fresh Approach To High Tales UI I don’t know if we’ve seen the updated UI really um this year we brought the engine development fully inhouse and steadily Expanded our team in a very exciting Milestone we hosted our first external play test whoa that’s huge damn okay a sign of things to come as noxy and I discussed earlier in the year 2023 has been about Staffing our team so that we’re ready for 2024 integrating our gameplay Systems and workflows with the new engine moving our creative and prototyping efforts forward in preparation for the next wave of play tests new engine progress okay so this year the team has been ramping up um to take full advantage of all of our shiny new uh engines capabilities while Beginning to integrate the latest breakthroughs from our world generation and encounter design teams um the needs of creators are always on our mind so we’ve also been working to get tools and content creation workflows online in the new engine oh interesting our rendering team is hard at work replicating the Look and feel of hightail in the new engine um and we’re looking forward to sharing a side by side with our old engine when we’re ready cool um at the moment however our primary focus has being on performance and functionality not Beauty we’ll share some of these Ugly duckling moments when we’re out of this awkward self-conscious phase Fair uh we’re also looking forward to sharing content from the new engine once it properly reflects our vision of hightail meanwhile the team continues to use the Legacy engine to prototype experiences and improve our development processes Over the coming months more and more of our team will move over to working on the new engine bringing that expertise with them so we we could still be two three years off at this point like to move to a new engine that doesn’t just happen in say like 30 days and then Everybody’s moved over like that is a gradual process yes uh Adventure advancements our adventure team has two missions first they create the tools and content necessary for players to tell their own stories in a blocky world then they use the same tools to build the world of Oris uh the setting for High’s Official Adventure experience the more they talk about it like this the more I wonder if the world will be a set map you know what I mean or whether it will be biome specific with pre-designated uh prefabs placed inside of it I really can’t tell at this point Whether they’re going to go for set designed world like a standalone single player video game or whether they will allow it to be a bit more minecrafty and have those narrative beats but you know it will look different each time you do it I just it’s getting very blurred as time goes on Um so yeah and orbis provides the Baseline uh from which many such worlds can be made this naturally is our primary focus however Oris is also where we get to tell Tales of our own through Adventure experiences that we refer to as the story of orus we spent a lot of Time revisiting oris’s history creatures and characters over the last year taking a critical look at every element to ensure it matches our goals for the game much of this effort has been focused on orit’s factions Okay so we’ve got the quebeck and the tro and the quebeck are The tree folk the tros are like orc type ones ferin are almost like weasly sort of ferret looking fellas uh and the scars are basically like dung beetles like you know like desert beetles um we’ve been making real progress here expanding their roles and capabilities deepening the backstory by W of an example let’s look at the character design that has unone significant uh change to the Quebec Tree Singer I mean at a glance I don’t recognize the difference too much oh wait a dude there though what the hell wait do we see whoa look at that guy sorry I’ve Jumped ahead way too far dude is cute he’s bloody massive but he’s cute wait okay let’s go back sorry I’ve spoiled it a little bit um you can see the old tree singer design oh okay that’s why it looked the same to me at the old tree singer design In the image above tree singers play an important role in the Quebec they’re the tail tellers and respected leaders responsible for passing down wisdom of the ages to each new generation of seedlings so they basically speak to the spirits that reside in trees if I remember correctly uh the role cannot be Adopted without sacrifice in normal circumstances older Quebec eventually put down roots and become Tre that was the one yeah uh in this form they can Slumber for great spans of time as Village Life continues around them nice uh let me have a quick drink hold on tree singers however resist this Transformation uh in doing so they become intermediaries between young queeks and their sleeping Elders I feel like I’d want to stay alive forever I wouldn’t be wouldn’t want to be stuck on the spot BS to that um where is it uh bridge between the past and present uh while we’ve Always been fond of the bearded tree singer of old we wanted to open up this particular design to reinterpretation here are a few of our initial Explorations they’re pretty cool I love the overgrown feeling of them it’s really nice that one I’m not quite as in That feels almost a bit like that feels like a fortnite skin doesn’t it that feels like they’ve taken like a bit of Groot a bit of a quebe and then pop some broccoli on the top with some weird like Barky uh shim pads on as well and then We got this one after working through several iterations our artists and designers we started to favor a much larger more ponderous version of our wisen Quebec we resonated with this image of a tree singer who after resting in one spot for slightly too long has to exert significant willpower to pull its Roots from the ground and start moving again oh interesting that is really cool look at like the staff as well that it wields or he uses it as a bit like a walking stick is that a play that looks very like hilts and swordy look at the scale of it compared To a player that’s nuts it’s really quite tall it was uh then our animation 3D modeling and VFX team um reimagine the quebeck and brought them to life look how cute this thing is dude and you got the little seedlings that run around as well I’m loving the tree beard yeah Honestly I like the eyebrows the most I the eyebrows look really cool very cool very cute uh ooh nature is not always green I mean I guess it’s all Tumbl and everything isn’t it the great thing about the collaborative efforts like this one uh is the way it Brings new ideas and greater depth to our world building for example the process of redesigning tree singers led us to re-evaluate how queeks build their homes and craft their equipment and our artist suggested that they might use music to encourage plants to grow into helpful shapes um this was the seed of What we now refer to as Sunwood an ornate wooden material that can be us you can see in Quebec clothing and in their redesigned Villages oh we get see redesigned Villages damn look at that shot holy dude love it love it love it uh right this is one small example of a Larger creative effort uh we have a lot more to share in the future as every single faction has undergone a reevaluation much like this one this isn’t even the only new kind of queen back sick uh a capital for avatars in hiel the heart of online social play is A shared place called the capital this is where players from all parts of hiel come together to make friends share experiences compete in mini games discover new adventures seek challenges trade show off pets and Companions and more interesting it says about trading I’m really intrigued to know what that entails Like I don’t know like is there going to be is it a case of the capital will exist on the official multiplayer server like the official hi/ Hypixel multiplayer server and then there’ll be you know ongoing wealth and growth and stuff like that like is it going to feel A bit more like an MMO for that one specific server I wonder the capital is a testament to all things that avatars have built and achieved in the past and looks ahead to the exciting things they’ll do in the future most importantly though it’s intended to be a Celebration of what the high tail Community is up to development of the capital has been another important part of this year’s creative uh and design efforts while we’re not uh yet ready for the full and veiling I wanted to make sure we touched on the nature of the Work we’re doing here while we’ve talked a lot about orbis over the years we’ve not shared much about this key hiel environment needless to say we’ll have more to share in the future yeah it’s starting to really feel as though like the central city is going to be like Almost like an MMO Hub like almost like a a storm wind if you will very interesting uh what’s next okay so as 2023 winds down we’re looking forward to 2024 as mentioned earlier the first half of the year will be focused on getting the whole team on boarded into the new Engine see what I mean I told you it take about 6 months not not just like a 30-day jobby to move people over we’re also going to be significantly ramping up external play t uh testing efforts focusing on collecting feedback on adventure experiences Creator tools I wonder if they’ll reach out to Like content creators or something although I don’t I I just can’t imagine them trusting content creators to not leak and blab stuff you know what I mean and social and competitive play these user tests and process advancements are important steps in getting us ready to enter full production so what what is The what what does full production actually mean Define full production video games unless Creator tools is more like map makers you know almost like Bedrock Marketplace type people yeah like Workshop stuff yeah so full production is Technically when uh During the period of time when the project is fully staffed so they’re Basically there and then they hit the ground running with it okay um these user test and process advancements are important steps in getting us ready to enter full production uh thank you for hanging with us while we’ve gone through the Transformations necessary to get our studio and project to this point uh what I understand the desire for dates some road maps uh the work we’re currently doing is essential in order for us to make accurate projections in the future so we’re getting no no teasers today on dates oh oh was that the end of the article oh damn uh I’m happy to report That we’re closing off 2020 sorry it’s ending off the year um on track for our milestone in the new engine excited to move forward expect growth and frequency oh I like that you can expect our updates to Growing frequency let’s go particularly uh when we’re in a Position to show off in in engine gameplay let’s go for now I’ll leave you a teaser of some new music along with a glimpse at a busy Village deep in the forest of orus right going to mute this let’s put this bad boy full screen I do Love hight tail music so let’s see what we got the high tail soundtrack is has always slapped I love It wait hold on I was looking at chat let me look at this Again oh interesting it looks as though he is controlling that teensy teensy bit of dirt maybe getting used to and attuned to its powers you got an Tree Singer there I like the uh the instruments here as well that’s cute You got big boy there look him the goofy ass Smile it’s cool to see that they’ve got actual proper like trading posts and homes and stuff like that so who’s that is that a player cuz they look awful small height wise compared to a Quebec their ears aren’t pointy like a quec so I’m not sure cuz Players are supposed to be taller than queex from the reference image a moment ago and from what we’ve seen so Far M damn will there be non- killable NPCs or like a free-for-all no idea honestly no idea whatsoever all right cool there you go is that is that it that’s that’s the full blog post here uh yeah cuz I’ve already read the summer 2023 update oh boy wow that is Very exciting in my opinion I love I love hearing about the game I know there’s loads of people that are excessively cynical about the game it’s like why you you’ve never paid money into it you know if it was like if you kickstarted the game and it still hadn’t Come out in this amount time then you’re allowed to be salty about it like for example I backed a game called heart for Alicia ages ago and I’m talking basically a decade ago in fact let me check where is it heart forth Alisia when did this game get successfully kickstarted Um last update was then does it say when it got like fully backed updates I scroll right to the bottom here there we go keep going back and back and back where is it where is it like this was a long time ago yeah look already it goes back as far as 2014 all right here we go then so funded there we go it was funded in 2014 we’re coming up on nearly 10 years since I put money into that game from the kickstarter like and even then I’m still not that bothered you know what I Mean so there you are so the tree people live in hollowed out trees well not necessarily no cuz remember it’s people can choose to like plant themselves down and that’s that but not every tree in existence is just a sleeping Quebec right or at least that’s not the that’s not the assumption That I drew from it cuz it says it promoted growth so there was that special kind of wood wasn’t there that they used as a crafting material uh is this a smart idea probably not oh nice I already thought there’d be more through here I thought one of these caves would have a Uh would have a crypt in it maybe there probably still is some just got to find it right let’s go things like that take a lot of time especially for small India developers I’d be intrigued to know the size of their Studio though right especially With like Riot behind them and I bet you so many developers have been pulled off of things like um valorant and things like that to move over to do stuff on um on uh hiel I’m excited to play play hiel in any form it comes in quite honestly like You know it’s not even being a fanboy or because like I’m friends with noxy and stuff like that it’s just I think the concept of the game is cool like I think they would do it justice because you know they’ve proved with Hypixel that the products they make stand the test of Time um I just think it’s going to be fun never put any money into it so I’m at no loss currently I can just be excited about the game that is one day to come that’s me also for somebody I was asking earlyer on if I’ve ever played it or the Early versions yes I have um I played a super duper duper early version um all the way back in God when was it uh what year was it insomnia Island when was it insomnia gaming Festival Island that was God when was it does anyone remember what year insomnia gaming Festival was in Ireland I swear it was like 2012 or 13 or something maybe a bit later than that it was quite some time before the trailer came out oh but back then the um the world kind of like existed a couple trees spawned in we were buy like a Long Lake and Stuff and um the only two characters in the game at that time were uh DanTDM and NTI which is quite funny a little bit of trivia I don’t even think NTI was even in it when we initially played it I think it’s they sent us a screenshot Um like a month or two later sort of showing off like Avatar Concepts and they they put NTI and uh DanTDM in which I thought was quite cool there’s some high tail history for you yeah noxy just like cracked it open on his laptop and um away we went it was Good also where did I leave my boat there it is I want to go explore that church get rid of the of that right then it’s taking us a long old time to explore this ocean but I guess it’s cuz we’ve done a massive detour to to read the stuff oh the bed Oh where did I leave the bed let me run upstairs and get the bed bloody I definitely should where did I leave the bed I left it inside the building didn’t I I should just bring excessive amounts of wood and wool with me whenever I go Off the uh off the faction Island I really should let’s go that way D the was how I first heard about it I didn’t know he was in the game yeah well I mean I guess it’s the character wasn’t called DanTDM but you know what I Mean it was I think it was them testing how different avatars would look trying out like you know pallets and clothing types and stuff like that was that kind of Thing uh where’s me boat did I really take it that far around that way surely not why so high up that the boat doesn’t spawn or what oh my God I almost was jeez right then let’s have a look uh unanchored let’s go to well I wanted to Circle up north real real quick because I saw that church so let’s go and explore that which way is it that way do you have that there am I going north right now oh I am yeah yeah sorry I keep changing the camera angle it’s cuz I keep looking around at Stuff oh it’s there it’s there it’s there it’s there This church looks suspicious so much so that I’m going to put this down Reon this was an Irish church at one point oh there’s nothing in it h I really thought there would have been okay it’s giving Elden ring it really is yeah it’s very much giving elen ring I really have no Bullets right there we go someone’s probably already been there yeah typically the chests when you’re out and about in the world they often fill automatically and differently each day but then some of them do only ever have the one thing in them you know what I mean uh let me put some music On where we look in let’s go for this one nice hecking Pirates that’s right I’m captain blonde beard look at me look at my blonde beard I’m an evil evil man Captain blond beard when his kickass ruin weddings and spitting the punch bowl that’s right disgusting absolutely un unbridled Rage oh damn apparently High uh not hiel sorry MTC Island have just started their winter event as well maybe we’ll do that for stream tomorrow I do love me some Christmas Cosmetics unb Old range yeah that works when’s the next faction hours radio show I don’t know is the honest Answer um I would have liked to have done it on Sunday but I think where I’m going away on Monday I think doing a show on Sunday might not be viable but we’ll see the nice thing is is most of the show is already kind of figured out Now in terms of like the features and the talking bits and stuff like that um a lot of it is just I’ve got to pull together a playlist for that day so maybe I can still do that I think I already have a guest who is available for Sunday so that’s fine as Well aren’t you streaming Pirates tomorrow for the wedding oh yeah but I mean that doesn’t start till 700 I could go live maybe at like 5: do an hour or two of that do the wedding the wedding could be like a shorter bit and like a tail end of the stream or Something this is just more Islands isn’t it yeah I did already check that Island there yeah I’m pretty sure it dead right let’s go back around this oh is that a dead end no I can get out there think you should still visit those hot springs yeah we probably should actually Ouchy sorry my stomach has been hurting like for like a good day or so now it’s really annoying it almost feels like there’s a lot of like gas in my tummy but it just won’t come out it’s sat right at the top of my tummy as well it almost makes me Feel a bit like half acid refluxing then half just like I’m going to vomit but then I never do it’s just stayed like this way for like a good like 48 hours or so aside from that I like feel relatively okay myself I think I’m just exhausted at the minute rather than I Don’t think I’m actually sick gavis gone to the rescue yeah could try it don’t know if we have anything like that oh my God I tell you what we had to um basically Force venelia medicine today which was traumatic in itself the action of doing that uh but she really needs the Antibiotics um but it is literally it’s it’s called a a moxa cylinder I want to say it’s called and it is bright yellow like neon fluorescent yellow and it stinks like it stinks and I can’t even imagine what it tastes like um so imagine trying to feed that to a three-year-old It was Grim what kind of medicine it was Liquid yeah it was Liquid so they’re trying to do it with a syringe oh my God it was the worst thing ever it’s a nightmare even in tablet form did you give us something sweet after yeah we did yeah yeah we’ve got Some of those we call them Christmas biscuits I don’t know what their actual name is I think they are actually labeled as Christmas biscuits in most shops in the UK they’re like Christmas trees and I can’t think of what they’re called festive illness is real most of My family in my house are ill right now I’m safe so far cuz you never leave your room no I’m joking you go to work and then you never leave your room gotcha Gotcha I think we’ve just about done that we’ve not done this big patch here either Actually we Tred to mix it in with like a uh a fruit fruit puree that’s the word uh we trying to mix it in with one of those but you could just smell it still it was unbelievable luckily though she slept all last night which was incredible she felt so much better um And to my knowledge she hasn’t thrown up today cuz that’s the thing she just wasn’t keeping any liquids or food down she’d have it and it was either immediately comes back up within like 5 minutes or it’d be like maybe an hour or so and then it would come up but I don’t Think she’s been sick since like yesterday morning now maybe a Teensy bit before that I think we just had that one awful night where she was awake every two hours throw up and then I think that was the end of it that’s the one Leb kachen cookies yeah I think that’s what they Are so yes I think that like yesterday’s stream and the day before that where I was like oh I think I’m coming down with something I don’t think I was in the end I think I felt a bit weird and I guess I’ve still got this tummy thing but I Think it was mostly just exhaustion to be completely honest yeah we gave her some Le Leb kachen cookies which was good I say cookies we gave her one I really do need to get back to the faction Island to be hon honest who’s getting married when are you going to Yog Studios um hopefully Monday I don’t think I’ll be going into the office on Monday it’ll just be I’ll be making my way into Bristol that day right I think we’ve done a pretty good pop on this now it it will bug me that I’ve not properly fully mapped out every little Bit of it but it’s also a lot of empty ocean around it most likely if it comes back then give her bananas and electrolytes uh to help her through it as well gotcha supposedly this MOX a cylinder whatever was supposed to taste like banana I didn’t have a taste of it they Want to contaminate the uh the batch but there’s no way it doesn’t taste like ass it tastes so bad I I feel like she should have told us the doctor knowing that she’s a three-year-old and she was like oh yeah this one’s here like banana cuz we said Like oh does it taste of anything kind of like how cowp like they just do it like strawberry and she was like oh yeah this tastes like banana it’s like G it tastes like the old type of banana the one that died out a while ago Jesus I don’t think I ever had that kind of banana when I was younger the closest thing to good tase in medicine is old grape cough syrup they’re the best tasted medicine’s cowp cowp strawberry o yes please strawberry cow Poole is a I’ll be honest sometimes when AIA has cow Poole I I’ll sort a little syringe for myself oh I tell you what did come today chat um I got my poster of pirates which which is very cool it made me a bit teary when I opened it um but it is humongous I I very much underestimated How heavy not not heavy sorry how big um the poster was I got the bigger one whichever the bigger one was by the way there’s a logo on the poster which I don’t know if it’s actually on the website where is it uh Pirates SMP Shop where is it store yeah here we go is the logo on the poster it is as well where has this logo been all our lives look at look at this logo here it looks insane look how cool that is I need to ask if they’ve got a Version of that that we can have cuz I want to put that in my thumbnails for sure like that is an unbelievable logo like it looks so cool how close are we to home all right we’re on our we I tell you what a funny little story about the logo for pirates SMP so Owen sent me the one for chapter 2 if you will cuz um chapter 2 basically happened after one of the events and obviously it went from being just the map with the Word on it just hit puberty thanks uh and it ended up having the tentacles on it or the tendrils whatever they are and I said to Owen like oh can you send me a version of that logo and he was like yeah yeah sure no worries no worries and Then he sent it through to me and the file was something like Pirates SMP Ursula’s revenge and then like you know 223 or something like that and I was like Ursula’s Revenge I was like isn’t Ursula the one from The Little Mermaid I was like are we getting like a Disney Little Mermaid got to get my voice back kind of storyline in Chapter 2 like what what is this and I thought I’d like properly stumbled on a spoiler in like a logo file name from Owen but it just turns out that’s the name of the artist who made the logo and Owen Was like oh my God I never even thought about that so Owen Owen had been conversing with this Ursula and never once thought how it related to his pirate SMP in any capacity I just thought that was really funny like I see if I can find their Twitter where is it Twitter ura’s Revenge is it that one There I don’t know what their actual Twitter handle is but yeah as soon as I saw it I was like oh my God that’s really funny but yeah Owen just never Clocked immediately noticed it and was like looked really shiny wait what we on about maybe that’s from a different conversation sad that some of the members are missing but the post is are really cool yeah yeah yeah it was they reached out to everybody about the posters Um and basically they either replied and said yes they either didn’t reply at all or they replied and said no which is totally fine oh oh damn wait hold on head to the Herod do travel north blah blah blah blah go to the the pirate lord also believe you buried his Treasure in a Spire sure right didn’t realize I had a quest here might as well knock that out on the way home easy peasy pretty sure the treasure is just beneath this spire here right beneath the Staircase hello oh is that not the Quest or do I have to go further north than This it said in a Spire wait hold on what is it uh but that if he buried his treasure in a Spire he could retrieve it from the sky in the afterlife he buried it in the base of the tallest Spire at Sea and what was the initial instructions Um North from the herend Dos small island with palm trees from their head directly east off of it to a larger Island not too far away populated with jungle trees that that would be this one the treasure will be Clos by right let’s find the tallest spy then pretty sure The spyes are over to the west side of this island Uh nice got It this entire s SMP is so pretty it really is I’m sure they paid a lot of money for it I’m assuming this is the correct Island right faction Island it does say about there and going east but I’m pretty sure it’s not that way I’m pretty Sure it must be this island and then it’s the spes here so there are spes on the Northwestern um so the tallest one is this one straight ahead of me I Think which one was it that one there you go it’s in there nice ooh lovely treasure I’ll leave it as Cobblestone so people know where to look makes it easier for them do it do you have a dedicated playlist for this that we can listen to on our own I Don’t think it’s currently public but maybe after the S SMP it’ll be made public it’s not my S&P so I don’t want to share it out it’s all royaltyfree music it’s all on a website called epidemic sound um the sales look so good yeah I’m blond Beard how did you get them I made a m self we got that one there as well the the two the two crystals that skull by the way is just reused from you know when I did the first newspaper and it had the skull and cross word the logo that was on the Front page of the newspaper for skull and cross word is that’s the skull and then I’ve just basically drawn a beard on top of it let’s go although it was a little bit different to work on because when I scaled it up like you know one to one or I guess Really by 200% it ended up being a little bit too big so it’s not actually Pixel Perfect compared to the original so it means that in some places you can see see how like it almost looks like one pixel there but then you’ve got a singular one there it almost looks like A half pixel so actually a lot of the design is two pixels tall and then in some areas I’ve thinned it out with shading that’s only one pixel deep um so we took a little bit of took a little bit of work but it got There in the end I think it looks all right right let’s get ourselves back to faction Island what have I missed your purple now so what you’ve missed is that I am the owner of the sunset Stone the sunset Stone has been slowly but surely losing Its power then it got a little bit of resurgence of power and then it lost it again um and after the interaction that I had with Appo um Gracie and quvo in relation to cppy where we were trying to interrogate cppy because all of our friends keep getting kidnapped and Frozen and stoned and stuff like that basically I fell out with all of them and I’m now on a bit of a villain Arc which may conclude tomorrow or may continue tomorrow who knows um but yeah I am currently blond beard blond beard is a bit of an elusive Character though so because there’s nobody on right now I can stay as I am but if I was on the mainland I would uh take the beard off and everything and I’ll let people know I’ve hinted at blonde Beard’s existence in the newspaper for week three the week or I Say week three issue 3’s newspaper so that’s basically what’s going on I’m on a bit of a villain Arc I was kind of hoping the server would be busier when I did the whole blond beard bit like as soon as the the SMP was pitched to me doing blonde beard was one Of the bits that I really wanted to do but where I’ve been busy in like the little ones have been sick and you know life has been a bit hectic I’ve not had the time to really build up the blond beard character as much as I would like I think in the YouTube Video it will look decent in the YouTube video I can make it seem a bit more you know together but yeah uh just thought actually let’s go to Reggie and just see if he’s got any other ship upgrades at the minute um let’s park just here we’re not going To be a ladder Parker ladder Parkers can all rot in hell thank you tell you what my sword’s close to Breaking hey wrench oh you got a quest pirate you look in need of work I need some help lucinia didn’t provide a captain’s manifest and well that won’t Do they docked in a nearby Island could you go get it for me sure manifest right yeah I’ve got a Gallum 5 already so we’re good we’re on the we’re on the best ship sick I’m going to quickly run back to my base dropping my cash with Allison see if we got any more sales of quest buy over in the store see how life’s going let’s see oh wait did no I didn’t I didn’t accept it oh we do we have another sale right let me pop issue three in newspaper number three lovely one and One two and two fantastic good

Eloise’s hat on what pip know it’s fine I’ve never tried to understand pip all Right look I don’t know why I’m mad about it Thief I told you he was probably just clutching on to the last thing it can steal before the casino truly puts pip out of business cuz the casino is completely under like undermined pip the casino is making bank on a regular Basis how much money is that then 5,418 that’s not too bad is it I’ll take that right Empty Me backpack we’ll go do this cheeky little Quest we’ll take things from there if you have to explain this S&P in one sentence what would you say um I would Say that gameplay-wise the closest thing to compare it to would be sea of Thieves but mixed in with some fun overarching storytelling um with events that happen every third week or so and the village oh sorry and yeah I guess and I would say and the villagers are filled with NPCs driven by AI that all have unique characters and thoughts of their own there you go that’ be my description that’s an all right description is it kind of summarizes Things CH all the stuff on the floor o umam uh that’s a long single sentence it is uh right let’s do it [Applause] Just going to keep shift clicking till everything’s gone I do need like a burn hole don’t I well not maybe not a burn hole but just a hole to lob stuff in that I don’t want anymore stuff like singular blocks bit of moss three bows ah you only hollock try Again could do with keep him one bow what the didn’t I used to have a really good bow now I think about it I did where’s that gone didn’t I have a bow that had like power five on it or something D like that God knows um oh No right so some stuff I don’t want to keep is stuff like this uh I’ll keep one bow then I guess although I don’t really have any arrows on me oh iron boot shits Down I was about to throw away the Saddles but I actually do think I’m in need of saddles quite often the music chest is f see you what I could do I could do taking out the gold making some more gold blocks that might make my life a bit Easier where’s the banner one top one nice we do just have this random overflow chest Ah that’s where my bow is I knew I had one somewhere there we go sweet um saddle saddle oh yeah that’s why I wasn’t repairing the sword cuz I already have one I should probably just stick with That uh okay this might be a bit random but your voice puts my dogs to sleep no it’s raining here and my healer is mad about it your healer you spelled healer he e e l rather than h e a l what’s what I’m not sure I’m understanding the context Here as soon as I see the word
