Welcome to AMA arcade podcast join Andrew Michaela and AJ as we talk about games that have had some kind of positive or negative impact on us let’s game together [Applause] you guys know how like you walk into a room and it’s really gay yeah and yeah yeah yeah that’s exactly where I was going with that thank you so much I really appreciate it do not talk to me like that amen so you walk into a room very gay right Um and it feels like everyone’s looking at you that’s the exact feeling I got when I thought Herobrine existed in Minecraft oh my God okay so a storybook Herobrine for me so when I was uh when I was younger I made a house on an island On in a survival one time and I was like dude my entire house is made of wood and I have like a hedge maze outside this is awesome I want to make a fireplace in my uh house oh no and I just remember Santa Claus Um I made the fireplace and I put Stone all around I was like See it’ll be fine and then my house burned down shocker and I was like oh my God Herobrine did this there’s no way this was my fault he’s an arsonist everything yeah I guess He is he attacks random people I wonder where political ideology Herobrine Affiliates himself with huh well Herobrine’s a proud boy anyway oh no Herobrine with the make America great again hat on Jesus I I do that yeah do we have like any personality for Herobrine well he’s a piece of [ __ ] Just remember like I was watching uh on like old DanTDM videos on like Herobrine and stuff I remember finding it yeah I remember it was like so intense I used to be like holy [ __ ] he’s gonna [ __ ] die he’s gonna die oh no oh my God real life Oh oh god oh now that I I remember those videos no if you die in the game you die in real life DanTDM has like a three-year-old child now he died he does he’s the only he’s like one of the only Minecraft youtubers who turned out to Not be a pedophile Kind of Wonderful it’s like all the ones that had a good impact on me I can like still look fondly on all the other ones that I didn’t care about did end up being pedophiles and I think that’s a flex on My part yeah I think so too because I never got into like dream or anything me neither I no offense to those who do like the uh that SMP it’s fun I get it me personally no and then half of them are like the worst people you could ever See on the internet I’m gonna I’m gonna make a controversial statement right off the bat okay I don’t like dream oh really crazy right crazy I guess we’re not doing any more episodes guys I’m so sorry yeah um so you guys remember Minecraft story mode when like let’s No no pretend I don’t because I want to forget that I played that okay but do you remember you played it oh you played it I just watched YouTubers play an episode of both seasons oh my god well do you remember the part where they put all the YouTubers in the like yes yes okay okay that’s my favorite part so can you imagine if that came out like just like a couple years later no can you imagine dream SMP in Minecraft story mode how would they even do that because they can’t like incorporate his skin into That without it yeah I don’t know but like I feel like it would give YouTube Rewind Vibes well that kind of already does it was just like whoa is that Stampy Long Nose okay well he was playing all of the YouTubers that I cared about at that time which I really appreciate yeah Cause they got like Stampy they have the Diamond Minecart stacyplays Captain sparkle oh I remember two other characters who weren’t actual YouTubers but I thought they were because that was the whole point it was like the redhead who turned out to be the villain oh yeah Yeah it’s all coming back like guy who died I don’t yeah you know the one you know the one who died yeah um Cheers Cheers yeah what do we start to the episode do you remember that the the the like the the guy with like long hair Who looked like all greasy and pale from Minecraft story mode I forget his name but is that Captain sparkle no no no no no no sparkles is not pale in like the first in the first season there was like a guy with like really long I just remember thinking wow this guy’s just Like Snape from uh Harry Potter uh I don’t even know who you’re talking me neither the first like guy that we don’t like yeah wait oh I grew up that’s his name yeah four that’s his name um that’s a fun topic I think so too you Know are we really going to bring a war in Minecraft stop okay right here I could say about four oh my God I don’t I don’t like this anymore guys let’s talk about Minecraft um yeah perfect segue um I can read the first Creepypasta of Herobrine you found a creepypasta of Herobrine yes I’m gonna tell you guys how I used to think Herobrine came about keep in mind I didn’t have like internet at the time really and so I very sparingly like watch YouTube and whatnot but me and my old friend would like play Minecraft in her basement And that sounds like a weird way to preface that um and we would like be playing it on like multiplayer or whatever and we’d be in like a desert and I’d be like just flying around in the desert or whatever and I’d see like little like crosses dug Into the sand you know because like natural like terraforming yeah that’s how it works sometimes and I’d see that and be like no way Herobrine oh God in my Minecraft world I was terrified because it’s like I don’t know Antichrist or whatever it crosses in general no yeah that guy Freaked the [ __ ] out of me yeah I can read it now following eyes go for it all right I gotta do my like narrator voice Minecraft that’s the title Minecraft yeah just a Minecraft okay I had recently spawned into a new world in single player Minecraft everything Was normal at first as I began chopping down trees and crafting a workbench I noticed something move amongst the dense fog I have a very slow computer sorry like why would you like that’s I have a very slow computer so I have to play with tiny rendered distance I thought it was a cow so I pursued it hoping to grab some hides for armor it wasn’t a cow though looking back at me was another character with default skin but his eyes were empty I saw no name pop up and I double checked to make sure I wasn’t in multiplayer mode He didn’t stay long he looked at me and quickly ran into the fog I pursued out of curiosity but he was gone I continued on with the game not sure what to think I just want to preface really quick there’s no fog in Minecraft well okay if you have really really low Render distance then yeah it’s like froggy but yeah you have to have like insanely low render distance if you if I guess he does playing on an Apple like the original [Laughter] as I expanded the world I saw things that seemed out of place for the random Map generator to make two times two tunnels looking what the [ __ ] to make two by two tunnels in the rocks small perfect pyramids made of sand in the ocean and grooves of trees with all their leaves cut off whoa I know crazy he was going around doing the most boring thing You could do literally anything like I don’t know manslaughter anything else yeah entertaining who notices there’s a pile of sand in the ocean oh no like the leaves are not on these trees like a fire I don’t know maybe if you said there was like fire all around I’d Believe it I would constantly think I saw the other player in a deep fog but I never got a better look at him I tried increasing my render distance too far whenever I thought I saw him but to no avail I know I saved the map and went on the Forums to see if anyone else had uh if anyone else had found this pseudo player there were none I created my own topic telling of the man and asking if anyone else had a similar experience the post was deleted within five minutes Herobrine’s on the internet’s Twitter oh [ __ ] we gotta Cancel him quick I tried again and the topic was deleted even faster I received a PM from username Herobrine containing one word do you want to guess die die it was stop [Laughter] leave me alone what was it a reply or an email it was a PM yeah it was a private message you’re getting like a private message on like a forum back in like stop yeah you just like you know you’re talking about like a scary thing you’re going through they’re just like stop okay yeah um that was interesting there’s more There’s more whoa when I went to look at the Herobrine’s profile the page 40 Ford I don’t know what that means oh that means it wasn’t found like oh so Herobrine doesn’t exist it doesn’t exist I received an email from another Forum user he claimed the mods can read The Forum user messages Yeah all this becomes infinitely less scary if you just realized this was someone’s like you know afternoon on their computer Herobrine’s a mod Cannon oh my God yo so true so we were safe for using email the emailer claimed that he had seen the mystery player too and had A small directory of other users who had seen him as Eve well their worlds were littered with obviously man-made features as well and described their mystery player to have no pupils yeah about a month passed until I heard from my informant again my uniformity yeah that’s a dude emailing you yeah Some of the people who had encountered the mystery man had looked into the name Herobrine and found the name to be frequently used by a Swedish gamer I watched gamer sweet hmm was it PewDiePie oh my God really the true horror you guys do realize Yen’s the like lead designer of That game is Swedish right oh I thought it was PewDiePie wait what wait what I thought Swedish gamer PewDiePie well I mean Minecraft is Swedish like Swedish gamer well he’s you used to be a gamer you know not anymore but okay yeah sure he’s retired ever since I started Making them he doesn’t count anymore yeah ever since he started being racist like regular yeah anywhere all right anyway um yeah after some further information gathering it was revealed to be the brother of Notch oh my God yo Natchez brother see that makes a lot of sense the games Developer episode we called him a proud boy no oh he got your right guys full circle baby I personally emailed Notch personal ity you went to Notch’s inbox and was like there’s just your brother’s like harassing me in Minecraft oh my God what would you even do about it this is what He did he’s not even working on the game anymore I know and asked him if he had a brother it took him a while yeah but he but he emailed me back a very short message I did but he’s no longer with us what you say stop just surprisingly it’s not Over yet it’s almost over there’s more going it’s almost over I haven’t seen the mystery man since our first encounter I haven’t noticed any changes to the world other than my own I was able to press print screen when I first saw him here’s the only evidence I have of his Existence and if you see like I’ll show you zoomed in he’s all the way there oh yeah and I’ve seen that photo around it’s like the photo of him like in the fog oh okay it yeah it’s that was the first ever picture of Herobrine whoa I know It’s crazy guys okay so what gets me about this one is that like all right so imagine if this is real right um Notch had a brother right who went by herobrine for some reason apparently I think there is a reason for it there probably is because it’s like hero right And then Brian or Brian Brian like was his brother’s name Brian oh my God we keep in mind this is like Creepypasta like 2012. that’s true yeah so none of this is gonna like make sense yeah yeah it’s just like if you think about it like what was what was his brother’s deal Like why was he targeting this one specific guy I don’t know like well and why was a ghost hunting in Minecraft I don’t know being part of like mid gen Z means that we’ve been exposed to like a lot of weird internet culture uh-huh primarily in terms of Creepypastas I Used to call them scary noodles uh you what yeah I remember it was like in elementary school and I first heard about them they’re like yeah Michaela you should watch or Read Creepypastas I’m like what are those they’re like just search it up so I started I forgot About it until I came home I’m like oh yeah the scary noodles and I tried searching it up but I couldn’t find anything yeah maybe if you because you searched up scary noodles so I went to school the next day and I was like so I searched those scary noodles I Feel like I remember that yeah I think you were there it was you and uh I think they go by Charlie now I don’t know anywhere um so that side of the internet exists yeah in terms of Minecraft but there’s also the positive side which is the good YouTubers they’re gonna ignore all the other ones we’re gonna talk yeah the good ones because we’re not starting controversies on AMA arcade on our first episode episode one I think we should burn every bridge possible just get all grief about any YouTuber or stream or whatever brief the bridges like Minecraft yo yeah I used to I’m staring at you with hatred in my eyes that’s okay um but like uh did either of you guys watch Stampy I did yes oh I did hello everybody this is Stumpy welcome to Stampy’s lovely world you’re a British unfortunately but he’s still going yeah like episode 850. Okay it’s insane and I like love him for it because he’s not getting as many views as he used to before because obviously he was a very like mid 2010s like sensation yeah it doesn’t you have like his love garden or whatever yeah he still does that Um he got married to squishy I think oh that’s nice it’s very much nice because squishy came out as non-binary so that means scampi is an avid supporter [Laughter] no he gets like so much less views but he like keeps doing it just because he Loves it so much yeah and I think that’s so sweet and it means like he’s not like doing it for the money I remember when he was like some other YouTubers oh no that was cool that was like the last time I saw like Stampy he was on good Mythical morning he was oh my God I think everyone’s been on goodness yeah they it’s speaking of Good Mythical Morning I’m gonna go off on an unrelated tangent um in like the recent episodes like they’re really leaning into like the gay tension that everyone’s like oh no they’re pretty sucks I haven’t watched Them in ages yeah they’re older clips and it’s like they’re like borderline making out they are they’re so soft they literally live together anyway they were just friends We’re Not Gonna burn Bridges um or maybe create new Bridges um but yeah I thought link was hot of course um Um I I kind of want to talk about my experience with like Stampy because like yeah I was the type of person who wanted to be caught up with all the lore you know right and so I remember specifically the heavy lore my uh my sibling introduced me to stamping was Like whoa look look at all this it’s all got the love garden and oh it’s exploding TNT or whatever you hit the target those are yeah yeah and I just remember being like whoa and starting it specifically episode 259 why do you remember that yeah because it was a very Specific number and I because I didn’t want to start all the way at the beginning for some reason and I just remember watching from that point all the way up to the current and it was beautiful except for when I reached the end and I was like where’s more it Should just go on forever I did with that with markiplier in like five nights at Freddy’s oh God yeah apparently and I’ll like occasionally return to like Stampy’s YouTube channel because he was like like key part of my childhood but I would like I watched one of the episodes and apparently hit the Target like took over Funland like this whoa whoa like Christopher Columbus or something what happens it’s literally named hit the target’s fun land now oh that’s so he has to break a whole new fun land and I think that’s him trying to come up with new ideas which I Appreciate probably yeah but that’s just so funny so much there so many mini games so many dog houses so many farms yeah it was eventful though outside of like the like cultural stuff of it like the scary noodles and uh yeah um the YouTubers um I want to talk about like how I felt in my childhood playing Minecraft the first exposure I had to Minecraft and like the longest exposure I’ve had to it was when I got it as a gift I want to say for my birthday um in like 2011 when it like first came Out for Xbox 360. and I’d like play it on there and I wouldn’t know what the hell I was doing so I would just like build a house and I’d be like this is good I like this and it wouldn’t have a roof um because I didn’t know you could fly In creative ah I see so I would just like build these like little tiny boxes with no lid basically and I’d be like why is it raining in the house this is messed up because I thought it was like the Sims or something where like you Don’t have to see the roof huh Minecraft I played that all the time because I I think like I don’t even remember when I got the Xbox 360. that’s how long ago it was but I got one and I just remembered that we some for some reason were able To get Minecraft for free and I was like this is awesome oh my God Minecraft let’s go and then was that your out loud reaction probably you know when I was like you know eight or whatever um when I was six damn now my reaction was even worse I was actually a mobile Player at first yeah I think everyone was I played the demo version yeah it was on like my uh shitty Samsung tablet or my iPod Touch that’s what I played on and my friend Ian he’s like a childhood friend of mine he’s like yeah you need To get Minecraft it’s like crazy it but it was like 6.99 or something crazy seven dollars is a lot of money for eight-year-old Michaela I it was it was yeah so I was like I went I went to my stepdad Richard I was like Richard you got to get me this game You called him his actual name that’s what I I don’t call him stepfather okay okay I get that but just going why not like Rich hey Richard Charles Richard dollars to play Minecraft on my he wasn’t British one I don’t know okay so I was like I used to call him Richie Oh my God gotta get that out are you okay yeah bring up bad memories I’m so sorry yeah okay this is why I brought water yeah I know my allergies have been acting up recently I just had to die for a second okay so Richie Rich uh I was like please Richard you gotta get me this game even Ian has it it’s so cool you can have wolves and that’s a whole other thing but I was like I was obsessed with Wolves as a kid I used to think I remember that I was there for that I’m so sorry It’s okay I was worse um I I just remember you telling me used to role play as a werewolf as a wolf yeah I was a vampire werewolf I used to like crawl on the ground we used to play house okay I’ll I’ll get to That in a second yeah but yeah he said no okay anyway he’s told me to [ __ ] off yeah and I was so sad so I started crying Minecraft me I think I wrote about it in my diary oh my God and then he finally because I Think I was being annoying as [ __ ] so he was like okay fine sure and he gave me it and I literally cried again but like cheers and keep in mind my friend Ian was in the corner just like confused like he was playing Minecraft and then I would Join his world and I’d make like diamond houses oh that was the classic you know but yeah golden diamond combo to show how rich and awesome you were yeah but a little Cameo to like me again so when I was younger I was obsessed with Wolves We used to play house a lot me and AJ that’s not talk about that yeah it was eventful I was the dog really yeah anyway Minecraft Minecraft so okay I mean it probably plays a note how am I going with us I don’t know I lost my Entire train of thought um can I talk about some weird misconceptions I had playing Minecraft yeah of course uh when I played it you know I was obviously in creative mode because survival mode was terrifying what if my Hunger mode goes down what if I die what’s going on DanTDM exactly yeah Um and so what I what I uh I would always stay in creative and whenever I wanted to build a house I would go into the creative menu and bring out like I remember specifically one time I brought out 16 brick blocks how do you know I just remember that because I remember Being like 16 seemed like a good enough number for a house right we did the full stack 64. yeah but I was like no no I only want what I need okay okay and so I did that and then I was like oh it’s not going down am I doing something wrong And then you know eventually you learn right yeah um and one of my favorite misconceptions was I was like I was like oh boys like creepers right okay go on and so I was like I want to be the type of guy who loves TNT and explosions trolling gotim I would have Hated you in elementary school and so you were catholic you’d be my worst enemy and so what I I really really wanted to figure out how TNT worked okay so I would put it down and I was like what can I use to start with redstone yeah And I was like blaze powder it looks like fire right and so I would try it and then I got like so upset that it didn’t work that I cried I was like why is it the TNT working and then uh my sibling was like just just go To survival that never work yeah yeah that’s how that works right I know and it didn’t work and I was still upset and so what I did is that I would dig a hole put a creeper egg in there punch it once so it’d get mad and explode on me and Then I’d be like explosion yay killing yourself in Minecraft I wasn’t creative so I was fine you know I was like actually what happened um seems intense my second specialty uh behind explosions right was roller coasters I was a roller coaster fiend oh yeah except for I hated the gold ones Because they stopped you you know because I didn’t understand what Redstone was yet yeah and then and then remember it happened one time when like the the thing the the Golden Rail like powered on and it shot me forward and I was like oh my God I’m using only golden Rails for the rest of my life now yeah I used to do that all the time I used to make like roller coasters I’d have to like fall into another one fall into the ocean yeah right over the ocean I’d do like me and my brother I thought I was cool as [ __ ] I do like car cool I know I do like parkour like on slime blocks and I’d spend hours trying to do it I think it’s really weird Minecraft it was like the very first game I played games beforehand obviously because you know Yeah but Minecraft was like the first game that’s like stuck with me that I played at that point yeah and that I still play today you don’t see me still playing Diego’s Dino bash or whatever you don’t still see me playing alphabet park for the VTEC smile yeah what yeah What the [ __ ] is that what were those words we could talk about that another episode um but yeah like I still play Minecraft oh yeah you guys do too I mean I downloaded it recently and I saw the home screen yeah it’s so different they it is it’s so weird because they like Updated it so that like uh console versions match with like Bedrock computer so it’s like everything’s cross-platform now which is great so I can like play with the people I care about um but it’s like I like oddly Miss like how like the original console The Nostalgia I remember being so excited for emeralds yeah who cares about emeralds remember that because I just remember being like horses yeah ocelots yes because I don’t know what it was it was just like this feeling of like I don’t know Minecraft felt Limitless despite how limited it was Yeah and I now it just feels like it’s gonna sound like I hate stardew Valley all right but it feels like the stardew valley thing uh the stardew valley effect where there’s so much stuff that they constantly add and add an ad that once you get down to The base game you’re like I don’t even know where to start with all this new stuff I’m just gonna stick to the beginning and then you don’t end up doing any of the new content uh yeah my thing is like as much as I enjoy like All the older stuff like the menus the sounds all the sounds just generally because it’s like a nostalgic feeling you remember everything new Minecraft is so good like they’ve like added like there’s it’s it has its issues obviously but they’ve like added like so much cool stuff they’re adding camels camels They’re adding camels another uh poll on Twitter for like the new mob yeah I don’t know what they do you know what they decided I was sniffer the sniffer one which is like the thing that will like get you new seeds for new plants which I think is really cool and it’s Like a dinosaur um the other two kind of sucked uh come for me for my head on Twitter um but I remember one of the mob votes like a while back was like uh glow squid some Gollum thing that no one cared about and then the moo Bloom the Mooshroom the moo bloom bloom which was a Mooshroom variant with like sunflowers and daisies on it right in there you would have shared it and it would have given you like flowers or whatever that’s because they didn’t and everyone loved it but but but dream went on Twitter and he was like hey Everyone do you want to vote for the glow squid I think we should vote for the glow squid why the glow squid the glow squid does nothing well no okay can’t you make like lights like no signs that yeah signs or whatever and that’s cool why didn’t we like make a Crafting recipe for that with like normal ink socks and like torches or something I feel like porch room would be fun because you know how like the mooshrooms they have like their own little biomes with like little mushroom world and I’m pretty sure the move the Moo blooms would have been in like like the flower fields or whatever yeah that’s awesome because I love the flower fields in Minecraft and they’re so hard to come by and it would add so much more and you’d just be so much happier they were just so cute too and I know like That’s like not a reason to add a mob that is absolutely a reason the fact that they added the glow squid instead which is like the most useless ugly looking thing either it’s just a squid that glows it’s just a squid that glows just a squid yeah I have yeah so I I just remember like I played Minecraft for the first time in like three years and I went like underground and I was like oh my God a squid that glows and I guess that wonder is like ruined yeah because I could have had a cool cow I just remembered we could have I just remember when like it was like a few years ago when I finally got like into Minecraft again I want to like swim in the water and then there was like the water zombies oh God yes I hate it makes it so just hard Right no the worst one is the the the Strays oh yeah if you don’t sleep for like three nights or something no that’s Phantoms that’s the Phantom the Strays are like the like ones in like the snow biomes oh the skeletons the skeletons and the snow biomes oh I hate those slow You down and like literally and like any like sort of Survival World I’ve played in any Realms or whatever we’ve had like commands to turn them off really yeah they are like I can handle creepers I can handle like drowns I can handle like anything else but like those [ __ ] I want to strangle them okay having mobs to make it hard but I feel like sometimes they just hinder your ability to just do stuff yeah Phantoms were also added by mob vote and the fact that we added that instead of whatever else there was hold on yeah why Would we add a mob that like just actively hard arms you constantly and it’s just annoying it’s like oh you gotta go to sleep or something but like man what if I’m in like the mines or something I’m not gonna like sleep down there yeah no I’m mining diamonds uh I I Had a winning a wire yeah mining away uh I had a world like a while back um and it was just you know a grass plane with a river around it and a snow biome like just north and I it was this was like a huge I had like a mob uh like A mob spawner sure like you know the thing with all like the water in it where mob spawn an exp that’s the word yeah and like so I was like at that level you know I had like a really good Farm really good house everything and I just remember realizing way too late That it was in an awful place because if I went North there were Strays which was so annoying right yeah and then if I went anywhere else near those Rivers there were just 10 million drowned at all points because I was always near them but they never attacked me because I was never close enough so they were just constantly spawning and spawning and spawning so I would just go there and there’d be like 12 drowned in one area and it was just it made me not want to look I would have made like a bridge At that point I did eventually but it’s just like oh my God huh I’ve had like so many Minecraft worlds since I like because I mean I started playing it in 2011 and I never stopped really I’ve never taken like I’ve taken breaks but I haven’t like been like I’m not going to Play Minecraft for a few years I’ve never gone that long without Minecraft yeah so the amount of Worlds I must have like accumulated by now like from like the 360 to Pocket Edition to like PS4 to now like just Bedrock like oh my God there’s so many it’s just kind of Sad to me because like I had so many worlds but like I can’t access like many of them at all because they were either deleted or like there was a big change in updates and I lost all those other worlds so like still it’s like memory’s gone forever and there’s no proof of Them they’re oldest worlds that I would have still are like from like 2016 or 27. yeah I actually may have my oldest worlds I still have my old Samsung tablet that I really but it literally dies in like five seconds oh I can’t really like go on it we can record an Episode in five seconds maybe but the earliest Minecraft like world I created I remember I wanted to be like on the hill of like a snowy biome yeah and I wanted a brick house but I wanted to do it in survival so you know I had to get all the clay From like the like the rivers and stuff right yeah but those [ __ ] zombies they’re in my way the whole time I literally spent hours like making the house I even made like that you know like the Stacked like roof right yeah I was so proud of that I just When it came to like houses and stuff I I also just like remember one time there were there was like I made a jungle house oh yeah yeah I made one it was like a tree house actually it was kind of awesome and then like I would just go Away like far enough and then I would just dig down all the way to bedrock start placing TNT and then go all the way up to the number limit and then I would light up and I’d be like hey look at all these explosions yes and there’s like a big like hole That’s like the number one rule yeah yeah I would do is I would do that and then I’d like build like a little tiny City in the hole like something like that and it looked really fun because it’s like this like Spiral like a big spiral staircase you’re far more Artistic than I am I just liked the destruction and you were gonna say autistic that’s the number one rule you don’t dig down in Minecraft yeah like that’s how Herobrine became Herobrine whoa I swear to you I was watching the DanTDM video I thought it was his brother who’s a ghost Okay but there’s more lore okay so this is how we became Herobrine so he was digging down in Minecraft and he hit Bedrock uh-huh and then like he became Herobrine that’s it to bedrock and was like oh my God yeah that’s that’s literally I was so afraid to just dig down because of DanTDM I might turn into heroBrine yeah I just I never did it because of of The Unofficial Minecraft handbook at the Scholastic Book Fair oh yeah yeah a few of those dude handbook they’re like oh combat one was like absolutely the worst one personally because like the building one had like Actual cool stuff that’s how we learned to build a TNT cannon yeah I learned how to build a things yeah it was fun I also had this book series I forgot what it was called but I remember like there was the main character Steve yeah and he was like you Know chilling his own Minecraft world and there was a griefer yeah and like he had to like fix problems like yeah fight against the griefer it was so intense but I guess another Minecraft series was like I just I just had a memory yeah okay Tiffany oh my God so one year 12 Years old right my grandma’s like hey you like Minecraft right I bought a book for you oh it’s an isakai of Minecraft does your grandma know that word no oh it’s just like there’s this guy and he’s he’s a griefer on Minecraft right and he’s griefing and he’s killing villagers and it’s like Haha and then he gets sucked into the video game Sao literally oh my God he gets sucked into Minecraft and he has to learn how to survive if he dies in Minecraft does he die in real life yes yo okay so and I just remember I got Halfway through the book when 12 year old man was like this is stupid I don’t want to read this anymore [Laughter] it was rare for me I liked everything as a kid oh damn and I got halfway through and I just remember the big like Stakes being If I don’t stop whoever I need to stop I need to stop other Griefers Demon King all right no he had he had to stop other Griefers and protect a village to end his griefing ways you know anyway and I’m we might have read the same story Then maybe uh but if he didn’t stop them then Minecraft would invade his real world and he just remembered like bro my brother might get killed by a zombie that I could not posted their fanfic to like some Editor to make this oh it was so good I think there was like Multiple books in that series too but I’m sure I was gonna talk about Pat and Jen’s the Crafting Dead oh that that was Peak that was Peak narrative see I never watched anything oh my God it was basically like uh you know the other version that I’m not gonna name But the crafting The Walking Dead yeah The Walking Dead so the Crafting Dead like there were zombies and stuff first they started out in like this like they had to fight the zombies yeah yeah and then they they made like allies and stuff yeah Ally and um I don’t know I Just remember being intense there were zombies so much lore involved okay okay like there’s Honey Boo Boo oh my God Honey Boo Boo Honey Bobo dinner’s ready and they give her like um it was pumpkin pie but they called it like tofi or out of [ __ ] tofu not tofu it was like Something gross Honey Boo Boo dinner’s ready and it was like an iron golem oh my God remember that okay so popular MMOs like MMOs okay I I don’t remember if their content was actually good or for or if I was it was good or 11 or whatever probably both but They like they literally made mod packs for for their like worlds like they made actual and I’m like that’s just like impressive so much dedication so much dedication I love their like they did like the lucky block challenges yeah or when they do the like um what’s it called where they would Like fight against each other like 1v1 yeah and they’d like get the different like like oh well I’ll get a chest here and they’d be in these like weird worlds yeah and fight each other it was just it was intense there was some of them I say as if I have any idea What we’re talking about yeah sorry have you ever seen popular MMOs no they didn’t do Minecraft Let’s Plays that’s the thing yeah you would think it’d be like oh here’s our Minecraft no they would just like write stories yeah and then act them out in Minecraft essentially but with like With their own commentary OG dsmp sure they had stories you know but like it wasn’t like it was lore I guess you’re right people died people did die like the dream SMP but like good good yeah yeah I’ve never like I never watched when people were getting Into like dsmp before everyone knew it was problematic people were like oh Michaela you gotta watch this you gotta watch these people and I’m like I don’t even play Minecraft anymore like why would I why would I watch it the thing about the dream s p is what surprises me Is like I don’t know I’m not like I just remember reading the fan fictions they were pretty weird so like they they streamed all that on Twitch right some of it’s twitch some of it’s YouTube okay because that confused me because like how would I just tune Into a stream and then understand what’s going on like how did that get so popular that way you know I didn’t they upload it to Minecraft or something maybe like they have like the parts that they’d upload and people would be like oh oh my God the new Lord just dropped Oh my God I remember people would be like oh my God rompu like jumped off a cliff I don’t know oh no is he gonna be okay and that’s all I would see on Twitter for like a day straight oh my God it’s like they anytime there’s like A trending topic for the dream SMP it’s in all caps yeah so it just stands out I’m like oh my god I’ve only seen one topic of dsmp trending on Twitter and that was the face reveal yeah oh yeah people oh so toxic anyways very funny though Um yeah but I felt bad because like okay we can go we can move on we should probably wrap up yeah because we have been going for like about an hour about an hour yeah long enough good enough um we’ve talked about everything we need to cover right yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah I feel like we’re just kind of going on tangents now which is fine that’s all this is that’s all this is it is just an excuse to be like hey I remember when I played Minecraft once you know Honey Boo Boo Honey
