JHENNELLEAXE IL CREDO DELL’ASSASSINO – Mob Talker React To Game Theory: Minecraft, The FROZEN Nether by The Game Theorists

Foreign at this point I think everyone’s familiar with the nether Minecraft’s version of he double hockey sticks a separate closed Dimension with a Bedrock ceiling and floor is covered in fire and lava not exactly the most inviting of holiday destinations but hey at least the weather’s consistent but while the

Conditions have always been dangerous this Channel’s favorite Minecraft characters the ancient Builders seem to have thought that this was an ideal location to build big parts of their civilization why though I’ve always felt like I was missing something there what was so appealing about Hellfire and brimstone that they thought that this is

Going to be the perfect escape from all the horrors that they created in the Overworld well my friends after my last theory about the piglet invasion in Minecraft Legends I started digging and when I found absolutely floored me buckle up because the reason for the nether being such a hot commodity is

Gonna Give You chills laughs foreign hello Internet welcome to Game Theory the piglet of the internet that’ll offer you great content in exchange for a click of that subscribe Button as I’ve already mentioned a couple months ago we did a theory based on the upcoming Minecraft spin-off Minecraft Legends a

Real-time strategy game where we unite the Overworld in an effort to defeat the piglet Invasion coming from the nether looks like a really interesting game I’m actually incredibly excited to see it come out but we deduce that the lore being presented to us in the trailers of

That game might not be the actual truth it feels like that’s been happening a lot recently while the game presents us as the heroes the piglens are actually invading because the ancient Builders invaded them first destroying their home in the nether in that episode we pointed to the ancient Builders doing what they

Always do over farming resources which eventually lowers the biodiversity of the area making resources much harder to find and thereby making it harder for the piglets to survive so what do they do to cause such a shift in biodiversity well dear theorists I once again pulled out my trusty Theory pickaxe started

Digging and I struck Diamond not really that would actually be incredibly impressive given that they don’t spawn in the nether but what I did find was Mojang dropping little hints that give us a window into the early years of the nether before the nether Wars of old before the arrival of the ancient

Builders was a world that looked very very different it wasn’t filled with lava and Barren wastelands but instead was a thriving ecosystem that contained the most valuable thing to sustaining Life water that’s right there used to be water in the Nether and I can prove it

To you and not only that I’m gonna explain why it ain’t there anymore put on your biggest puffiest coat theorists we’re going into The Nether and it’s gonna get cold now I understand that the idea of water existing in the nether is a huge claim they can’t even place the

Stuff it literally evaporates if even try to pour it out but well this is certainly what happens if we go to the nether now I’m not convinced that it’s always been that way and the reason for that is 2020’s nether update Tony guys this update is the one that just keeps

On giving us new lore the nether update completely overhauled the nether As We Knew It adding new Mobs like the aforementioned piglens new blocks like ancient debris and soul soil and a whopping four new biomes to explore floor one of which is going to be of great important to us today the basalt

Deltas this biome is definitely one of the most striking things you’re going to come across in the nether when you arrive you’ll notice the eerily quiet ambience in the large towers of the new Basalt blocks poking out from the sea of lava but what you might not know is that

Those large pillars of volcanic rock weren’t something formed out of the minds of Mojang but rather you can find these things out in the real world bath salt is a substance that makes up around 90 of all volcanic rock found on Earth when molten lava erupts from a volcano

And flows across the surface it immediately starts to cool if the lava has a high level of silica and cools quickly it becomes a black volcanic glass that you might know as obsidian on the other hand if there are low levels of silica like in 90 of lava then the

Rapid cooling is going to create something else Basalt it might not appear as interesting as obsidian but this rapid cooling can sometimes cause the outer parts of the rock to contract causing them to crack in hexagonal patterns which creates these beautiful tower-like columns you can find these structures actually all over the world

Including Giant’s Causeway in the UK Devil’s Tower in Wyoming and now they’re just in the nether too but Basalt Works slightly differently in the game than it does in the real world while basil blocks can certainly spawn naturally in the basalt deltas and the Soul Sand

Valley if you want to make your own Basalt you need three ingredients lava makes sense Soul soil a material that’s only found in the Soul Sand Valley and blue ice which is basically the Russian nesting doll of Minecraft ices you take nine ice blocks and craft them together

To create packed ice you take nine blocks of packed ice and then craft them together to get super packed ice oh wait never mind it is just blue ice super packed ice though a lot more fun also can I just say Mojang your ice is already blue it was always blue naming

Aside this means that you need a total of 81 blocks of ice just make one block of blue ice point being they’re really cold which I suppose makes sense when real-life Basalt towers are made from rapidly cooling lava so good job developers way to know your science in

The game the only place cold enough for blue eyes to form is on the bottom of icebergs in the frozen ocean you can also find it stored in snowy Tundra village houses and in the ancient cities in a structure literally called the icebox the main thing you’ll notice is

That none of these locations are the nether there is zero ice of any kind in the nether it is simply too warm of an environment for it to make sense so the question becomes how could Basalt form in the nether if there was never blue

Ice to be found there but what if there was blue ice in the nether at one point in time way before we ever made it there what if the nether had an Ice Age yeah who’s up for round two nobody nobody wanted round two or three or four

Or five or what there’s a sixth movie in development adopt who might have talked this is our 33rd Minecraft theory in fact if you didn’t realize we had so much Minecraft content it probably means you’re not subscribed so why don’t you just go ahead and do that right now we

Always have the hottest Minecraft theories in town definitely one of the cooler Minecraft channels out there don’t worry there are plenty more bad puns waiting for you on the other side of that subscribe button y’all subscribe cool let’s take a look at the evidence that shows that the nether went through

An Ice Age not uh the cringy movie type either besides these massive Basalt biomes we actually see evidence of an ice age in one of the other ingredients for basalt Soul soil take a look at the texture of the block the waves and streaks on its surface other dirt and

Sands in the game don’t have textures like this but there are places in the real world that do and that’s thanks to Glaciers well Glaciers are made of solid ice they actually flow just like a river of water would just much much slower this movement of ice ends up shredding

And tearing up the solid land it travels over leaving behind sediments and Street in the surface just like we see in the streaky texture of the Soul soil and the sedimentary nature of Soul Sand large blocks of blue ice cutting through the landscape of Soul soil hitting the lava

Creating the basalt that we see in the Soul Sand valleys and more impressively the basal Deltas but the Nethers covered in lava how on Earth could ice have ever formed there I hear you and I understand but in real life there is a precedent for this Iceland Iceland is essentially

One giant volcano that’s been constantly spewing lava onto its surface and despite the myth that Greenland is icy and Iceland is green Iceland is in fact very icy an icy place can absolutely be volcanic the two things aren’t mutually exclusive what makes a place volcanic is whether magma from Earth Center can make

Its way to the surface and erupt his lava meanwhile something like a cold climate is determined by a variety of other factors things that are completely separate from whether or not there is a volcano in this location considering the nether is a closed off system with no

Sky it seems very clear that ice was plausible here the nether wasn’t always so hot instead it was cooler maybe even Frozen and just like we’ve always suspected with Mars if there’s ice that means water and water means life something that we know has to be true

Thanks to the fossils that we find throughout the nether these massive rib-like structures are found all around the Soul Sand Valley and they can get as high as seven blocks tall considering a block in Minecraft is one meter tall that means that a single rib from this

Creature is 7 meters or nearly 23 feet tall it has one tasty and expensive rack of ribs and that’s just talking about the rib imagine the kind of creature that would be big enough to have a rim that large if the nether was once icy these creatures were likely some

Gigantic mammoth-like mobs that roamed free in the landscape but obviously something changed along the way how could the nether go from being a balanced biodiverse environment with giant mobs to a lava filled Wasteland where only skeletons remain this is where our good guy Heroes the ancient Builders come into play they would have

Escaped to the nether looking for resources and ways to defeat the Wither that they’d created up on the surface so they would have seen all the Luscious environments the materials and they would have farmed them heavily we know that the ancient cities used polished Basalt so they probably mined a lot of

Blue ice in order to create it on their own and sure taking the only real source of water ain’t the greatest move in the world but that’s not what really calls the downfall of the nether what caused the downfall was the ancient Builders moving in in the first place you see I

Suspect the ancient Builders didn’t just bring themselves they brought their technology with them their crafting tables their torches and fires their animal herds they’re smelting and those things all release gases CO2 from creating fires and burning fossil fuels to all the gases that release when you smelt metal to methane from cow farts

All of them are greenhouse gases because their presence in the atmosphere causes it to warm significantly much like the air inside of a greenhouse is warm and unlike in the Overworld where these gases can escape out into the atmosphere I suspect in the closed ecosystem of the

Nether these gases began to collect they had nowhere else to go they were stuck forever under the Bedrock ceiling bit by bit the nether started to heat up the ice which was already being farmed Away by the builders began to melt faster and faster until one day it was just gone

All the water had dried up you were suddenly left with a hot series of caves fires spontaneously bursting out of the ground the large animals that once roamed there in peace began to die out due to asphyxiation there just wasn’t enough fresh air to go around and soon

The builders would die too the only ones able to survive were those who found another Escape Route a new portal gotta admit though this is a pretty impressive new record for the ancient Builders they just doomed the nether Without Even Trying by the time Steve walks in from

The Overworld Millennia have passed and the gases have long since dissipated but the damage has been done animals are gone plants are mostly gone even many of the builders have died with only the walking skeletons Left Behind The Once icy glacial temperature of the nether

Has become a fiery place of death as the temperatures have risen to unsustainable levels desperate to hold on the ancient Builders created ice rooms in an attempt to keep what we’re remaining stories they had but it was no use it was way too little way too late this is how the

Ancient Builders wrecked the biodiversity of the Nether and no amount of gold is ever going to be able to fix the pigland’s home in the end Minecraft is revealing itself to be more and more a story of overuse of the land disrespect for its resources a warning

To those coming later about the dangers of pollution the story of Minecraft is one of protecting the world that you’ve been given living in harmony with it rather than fighting against it over using it milking it dry Mojang has been secretly hinting to us the truth of the

Nether for over two years with all of these updates but only now is it all starting to come together only now is it making sense no wonder the piglets are so mad their home was ruined the builders turned the thermostat up to inhumane degrees and then left it all to

Burn now that they’re attacking they’re just bring in the fight to someone else’s Turf so the next time you think about the nether remember this hot places secretly cool origin
