ibxtoycat – What Will $0.99 Buy You On The Minecraft Marketplace?

Hello i’m mvx toy cats and welcome back to store saturday today i want to check out this amazing map called ultra hard survival scorched it has a little cat face in the corner it looks adorable and it’s probably the best map on the marketplace but we can’t check

Out today because it’s 669 coins and i just don’t have that sort of money it’s too expensive it’s awful and as a result i can’t play but what i can play is this 1170 minecoin aquatic world except actually actually that’s way too expensive as well and it gets even more

Expensive because there’s maps like escape from the dragon that cost 1 690 that is triple the price effectively that is a full-on 8 pounds 39 10 it is insane and as a result you know i just want to skip back to a time when things were simpler and i

Want to check out one of the only maps this week which costs just 79p 99 cents because it’s called parkour wars never edition is it any good will a dollar get you a good map or will it just get you a sad old time let’s find out today shall we it’s super

Interesting i’ve just noticed this right now these same people the rage craft room whatever that means uh make a bunch of parkour maps and they just seem to vary wildly in price despite all seeming pretty similar like this is rage parkour this is never parkour hardcore parkour

Pure parkour park or walls i feel like they’re just throwing everything at the wall they can but maybe it’s a good map anyway you know for a dollar what can you really expect that’s what we’re finding out i guess i also feel like there may be just maybe a few months late to

This never update theme but whatever this is parkour wars never edition fast-paced multiplayer pvp parkour race to the top the dangerous parkour tower there’s checkpoints and weapons oh that sounds cool i wish i had friends oh it’s made by literally two people that’s kind of cool little independent map also very strange

The signs are hanging off nothing that’s fine so over here we can see that if you like parkour you can join a large pvp parkour realm now that’s really bizarre they’re advertising their minecraft realm in their map and that’s allowed today i learned anyway with that said let’s go through the nether

Uh portal over here and let’s see what this is all about i really am curious this is gonna be like 10 minutes of fun would is that a ripoff for that price is if it’s an hour is that like really good value if it’s like you know is it gonna be good

Bad i don’t know any of this but let’s return drop the red wall at my feet to return here so i put it there no drop it i don’t i don’t i don’t get it drop the red wall at your feet to return here i guess that’s after you’ve started

You know what let’s just start the game let’s do this i dropped the red wall i am i doing something wrong is why why am i not returning there whatever so this is the never parkour we have to get to the top we have four ways to choose to do so

Which i actually think is pretty cool um i guess we’ll start with the glowstone one sure oh this is how you get cluster my bad i’m just real dumb so it’s still our respawn point and um we can set our respawn point for any of these it looks like

How does the parkour work i guess they all go to the same place it’s just this is just where you start whatever so let’s go and let’s do some parkour yeah this is some fun stuff so there’s a really interesting um thing about uh you know the marketplace

I guess you kind of realize on the inside about how pricing and teams and stuff work like people try to set the price as like a reasonable gauge of like what the quality or whatever is but it’s something that isn’t uh you know entirely checked so

A map that costs one dollar can be the most amazing thing in the world a map that costs 10 uh dollars can be the least amazing thing in the world i died i’m not amazing oh that was fast though but there’s no actual arbiter of like what quality is

That’s probably because you know when it comes to art you can’t really gauge quality which is part of why it’s such an effective tax scam to use art in the real world and to say it’s increased in value by getting an appraiser that you happen to be friends with to

Say that it’s worth that amount because it’s really hard to disagree with value this is why a banana on a ground can be worth you know thousands of dollars because you know it’s the only thing things are worth for humans is what you’re willing to pay okay never right sword

Sure glowstone sure why not and now i guess we move on to another respawn point and i guess the whole map is just slowly climbing up this way it’s a really interesting concept like that but i also don’t okay wait we gotta get up this way i’m also

Just a little bit confused as to like is this really a great pvp experience like the whole four paths that leave the same thing kind of interesting but if you’re playing like two players and you have never right swords like are you even going to be able to chase

Each other i guess you’re faster to run than you are to up or whatever it just feels kind of bizarre also most of this hardcore i mean i i know i failed repeatedly on those first ones but most this doesn’t seem too damn hard oh look we have to do a

Jump from here to there okay that is actually pretty cool no it’s not it’s not um that is actually a pretty cool little hardcore thing i thought it was all going to be like super basic and again it looks like it was easily placed and created from an afternoon but they

Are playing around with it a little bit and you gotta give them credit for that yeah okay so from here what do we do now was i meant to not actually go up this thing was i meant to go straight through to that oh i think i was yeah i bet i totally

Was i think this is here as a like a uh what’s the word like a red herring they tricked me good they did okay we got this there’s the slime there’s the block i’m gonna ignore the red this time oh that’s not a possibility so we’ll go

To a different side this time because that went so poorly for me last time okay you can see we want to be up there how do we get up there probably some magic involving some slimes or something maybe we got to punch those out the way

Or maybe we got to climb from those onto the vines on top like i didn’t realize there was vines around it but maybe that’s how that works i don’t know but i guess it is at the very least you know this is parkour that does use some never elements that is fun uh

You can’t hate it i lied you can hate it ah okay so now we get from here to the outside of this block by just climbing it doesn’t seem like a thing you can do and it doesn’t feel like it either okay this is a fun enough

Parkour experience i mean i can’t say i hate it and you know that’s that’s uh that’s a good sign of nothing else but also how do you even get back up from this you have to just climb all the way down to the next layer

The previous low um but this is a uh you know interesting enough map but it is super super short if you’re playing this with some friends even if you’re super bad at parkour it’s like 15 minutes is that good value for a dollar i guess that’s something you as a a player get

To decide um and i feel like it’s interesting to look at is this the anomaly though or is this kind of normal i don’t buy many maps that are uh this cheap but maybe i should maybe i should see what the market’s like um for this sort of thing because you

Know what rather than just playing parkour wars so let’s check out the other 99 cent map release this week or 79 great british pence if you are a subject of the queen and uh as you can see this is a map that not only uh you know contains 10 skins but also

Gives you a survival spawn uh start your own survival adventure in gendry’s tavern besides fighting against zombies skeletons and other monsters you can also build your own house in a beautiful village nearby and explore other parts of this cozy medieval minecraft map like a big farm windmill and huge mountain

With a gorgeous view wait like a big farm a windmill on a huge mountain with a gorgeous view what do you mean like it that’s not a sentence whatever you know we’re gonna we’re gonna check it out see what these six skins in this one world is all about

Boy am i excited uh to see what a dollar gets you in minecraft so this is gendry’s tavern and again you know actually for a dollar it is a pretty map we’ve gone a long way from survival spawns being like hey we built a single house in this spawn

And we’re gonna charge you a dollar because you know what we hate you to stuff like this i mean i like that sign of the time’s changing and people getting better at what they do i hope we look back at now in the future and go to cat your map shot as suck

Also why am i running out of food so fast what a weird thing um i think that’s like a good sign i think if you haven’t grown that’s such an awful thing when people like whenever i see people who like go back and look for like old tweets or old whatever

Else and go oh this is you right it’s like yeah i i certainly hope you’ve grown and changed your opinion at least once in the last uh few years like um i think i think one of the weirdest things is when we pretend that humans don’t

Change because it’s like is that is that what you want from a people anyway so as you can see this is a nice survival spawn uh this is a very interesting uh little little tavern there’s a lot of details if this is what you like if you like exploring a medieval

Little tavern that’s that’s nice i guess who’s tavern is it gendry’s tavern wow it all comes together now right what’s the actual value of this i mean it’s a really pretty spawn again i like this a lot i i like looking around this thing it is in case you are curious a

Non-achievement earning world even though it’s locked into survival because uh presumably it was built in creative you know whatever it’s it’s about what you expect it’d be cool to see more survival built worlds that you play in survival maybe something something let’s play am i right um but

Like uh you know it’s it’s it’s still interesting to look at these things anyway and just to dive around the maps get some free chests as uh although most the chests are empty which tells me it was built and the java edition converted over but whatever i i

Digress i guess um as you can see you’ve got some rotten flesh over here real real nice that’s that’s great we got a map that you can explore get some stuff with and then apparently it’s a full medieval world for you to look around it’s not just a tavern

And a windmill and some wheat farms which for the record like the cool thing about this is if you ever do want wheat you’ve got an unlimited amount normally here but also of like hay carts again it’s it’s very it’s very cutesy it’s it’s probably someone’s thing right like

Someone loves the realisticness of this map look at this village just staring at a tree look at this this tower this uh brewing witch-based thing with some redstone repeaters and some note blocks i don’t know what this is meant to be but i like it um you know there is some some great

Baby happiness i think you know most of it is probably like either play this in survival to be a weird like role-playing style world or look at his like inspiration on what to build like this is some very skilled builders putting together a whole little town for you

If you want to uh you know like again this is a niche scenario i’ll admit but if you want to work on your medieval building skills and you’re like yeah actually i’d love to look at what someone else has done you can download this map straight and get it that way admittedly

If you want to just you know if you want to play a map like this this is the sort of thing that people have hundreds of versions out there for free online but it’s interesting because even though there are free versions of this show when something is priced at like a

Dollar it doesn’t usually seem to matter if there is a free alternative in some ways if it’s something unique you know because even though there are alternatives even bigger things than this that you can now like for free i’d argue at that price point you pay for the convenience more than

The map maker like i’ve been thinking a lot about how the marketplace exists and what exists because some people would say hey did you know you can download things for free why would you have paid things in the marketplace and there’s two big reasons one is to

Support people who made it the people who made this did a great job it’s it’s incredible but the second is because you know honestly convenience like even getting worse copies of things is something that hundreds of people have done as evidenced by our last or sas they were made a worse

Copy of a free map and likely sold hundreds or thousands of copies some people will pay for the convenience and um you know whether you think that’s a good or a bad thing is maybe up to you but it’s super interesting to see and at the very least um if you do pay

For it you get something that is unique it’s unlike anything else out there even if you can find free maps you can’t find this from there even if you can find uh free whatever else you can’t find my free whatever else and maybe that is what people really like maybe that’s

Why people buy books instead of downloading the ones for free maybe that’s why we watch tv shows instead of uh you know just watching youtube even though youtube’s free also look the terrain they use uh the big trees mob that everyone uses i like it these are these are some fancy

Trees i have no idea how wide these uh chests are filled this way by the way i’m just kind of rolling with it i guess but um yeah no like the the fact that like there is a quality improvement that arguably doesn’t need to be but people

Are getting better at these same things it tells me that sometime somewhere we’ll be in a place where like you know again the hopeful plan is the marketplace improves and improves improves to a point where we go yeah this was kind of weird where we were today

And um yeah the fact that it’s paying people to make those improvements is a good thing or maybe you dislike that maybe you disagree i guess today’s video even though it was still saturday and name it was interesting to look at some maps it was very interesting to see uh the

Price differential between something like this and some of the more expensive things that we’ve uh checked out in this channel and to see what and why that is or maybe you’d find the business uh stuff being not so fascinating i i always find the business of why anyone

Does anything interesting like why do people spend their days doing things to help other people out why do people spend their days making minecraft maps or youtube videos or uh selling you yeah you know cans of pepsi on the subway that’s probably a thing that someone can relate to right

But like you know the reason uh is you know there’s a ways of business there’s always an economics case for it and uh since strings dive into what the one for this this is some pretty terrain do i recommend it uh depends on what you’re looking for really do i recommend

The parkour map depends on what you’re looking for if you’re there and you want something fast and cheap maybe that’s good enough you know like with the smaller amount of money you’re talking about the less of a need it really needs to fulfill some could argue and at a certain price

Point like does it matter if i’m never gonna play this again i would say yes maybe you say no but i’d love to have a conversation about this in the comments down below i know youtube conversations are hard to have but let’s try to have one anyway i’d find that

To be interesting so go to the comments go like the comments that you you know you feel you want to be boosted and go and i report or spam the ones that are clearly like not that and let’s try and have a nice comment section uh who am i kidding this

Is youtube it’s gonna be a terrible comment section but i’ll see you for seed sunday this wouldn’t be a toy cat video if i didn’t say you can find the marketplace even when you pause the game now which is perhaps over the top definitely over the top but now it means

You can find toy cat’s map all you gotta do is search ultra probably actually can you do it yeah ultra i don’t know why this comes up before this like for real that’s called living luxury city this is called you know if we search ultra hard is it just my map

More maps come up when you search ultra hard but mine comes first how is living luxury city in any definition of the word ultra hard or big mouth how is this how are these things considered ultra hard what is what is happening behind the scenes like i like apocalypse i mean it sounds

Cool it’s got a bad rating you know my map why doesn’t it have a five star rating we should fix that right now am i right i don’t think i’m allowed to tell you to rate five stars so i won’t tell you to rate this map

Five stars i won’t tell you to do that at all don’t worry friends but what i will tell you to do is to like this video uh if you really liked it share it if you want to see more and to turn on those notifications uh because you know they’re nice aren’t

They okay thank you for watching and i’ll see you all next time good bye You
