Minecraft 1.18 is EPIC! Let’s Play Survival #1

Welcome everyone to a brand new Minecraft Let’s Play Minecraft 1.18 just released so we got all new mountains and caves so much to explore let’s get started with this series whoa the world looks so different already hello everyone I’m Gemini day welcome to my let’s play World right okay uh let’s

Get our bearings real quick look at the mountains oh my goodness I’m so happy look at the meadow the feeling I feel like there’s a village okay there’s a sheep there’s so many sheep there’s huge mountains giant Rivers where do I even start at right I should

Probably survive huh let’s start off by just prancing out to pink sheep hello hello you’re so cute oh my goodness hello I’m gonna name you uh Dandy Dandy oh my gosh I don’t know that I’ve ever seen a naturally spawned pink sheep anyways Village hello villagers uh don’t mind me just

Grabbing some food there’s literally another Village down there what the heck anybody home uh that’s mine now thank you hello farmer don’t mind me I just need a couple of things thank you and like in any good Minecraft let’s play we have to chop some wood with a view this time

What a few hey focus focus okay with some wood acquired we can now make our very first tools with this crafting table so we’re going to start out with just a wooden pickaxe that should do it honestly I think these Meadows are my new favorite biome already I love them

Trying to think oh sorry sorry I’m interrupting anything in here oh here we go some potatoes some bread emeralds I’ll take it to be honest this Village doesn’t have a ton more for me to take from there’s no blacksmith but I will pick up a few of these pumpkins I

Already feel like the exploration in this world is greatly improved and I’ve hardly even done anything look there’s a hole in the ground end of a big hole in the ground hello okay there’s a lot of baddies down there you know what we’ll just chill up here

At the surface for now being wimps and we’ll get some new tools there we go upgrade Acquired and get some copper I don’t really need copper it just seems like a really impressive first order to get and there’s also some super easy Iron over here that’s what I like to see

A little cute snack Don’t Mind If I Do I missed this early start of the game so much it’s genuinely so fun to play the beginning days of Minecraft I have a lot of goals for this world to be honest one of those goals is for this world to just

Sort of exist as a nice comfort for me we’re getting an update in the winter months which is kind of interesting I’m really excited to play in this world throughout the winter and be able to do a bunch of lovely little Comfort builds around we’ll take things at our own pace

And build up the world over time it’s a pretty big herd of horses huh gosh this update is incredible there’s so much to look at as beautiful as these Villages are I want to see the brand new terrain so I think we ought to climb a mountain

Can’t be that difficult right climb a mountain on first day in Minecraft whoa look at this world this is a fantastic place to watch the sunset and by watch the sunset I mean sleep peacefully right here nothing quite like a good slice of bread and a sunset over a mountain ah I

Missed this Minecraft is just so cool all right okay we sleep though we sleep it is the first night I’m not very well prepared we sleep as beautiful as my Mountaintop campsite was I think it’s time we move on we’ve got to find the perfect place to build a starter house

Don’t worry Dandy I’ll come back for you okay and so off we went to explore the new terrain and see what this Minecraft world had to offer I picked out this seed especially for this let’s play and I’m really excited about it but so that

I don’t spoil it for myself I’m going to release it to all of you when this video hits 30 000 likes that’s a fair few likes for my channel and I’m hoping it’ll allow me to get an episode 2 out before we get to that goal so that I can

Explore with no spoilers but you still get to see let’s take a moment to Deforest hold on the foresting accomplished oh berries Mind If I Do oh my goodness what is this whoa we’re pretty cool place for a starter base but it’s not perfect it’s a little uh spiky very spiky whoa

Just a quick peek I’ll just I’ll just take a very little peek so different from anything I’ve ever seen in Minecraft I I don’t even know what to think but it’s really good for copper seriously why is there so much copper the expedition to find my perfect starter base location continues you know

What I’m actually feeling like hiking up another Mountain Easy Does It climb the snow oh look at this View oh look at this View oh my goodness it’s beautiful this is a Minecraft Grove biome now this is epic you know what I think it’s mine this shall be my starter base location just

Needs a little cleaning up is all and perhaps it’s time to make a furnace as well so we can smelt some of this iron oh we will have to use wood though that’s okay sun has set on the mountains let’s take our first nap and our new

Home a little bit of snow clearing is in order but I’m Canadian so I’m kind of used to that that’s okay the addition of a quick little chest makes this our official home I mean it’s got everything you need a bed a crafting table of furniture chest that’s the Minecraft

Rules right you just need that that’s that’s awesome I’m kidding that’s not we’ll build we’ll build Birchwood right in our house as well that’s perfect what a treat I have a couple of different goals when it comes to this Minecraft world Beyond just being able to relax

And chill in this world I also have some building goals that I would like to accomplish and exploration goals I’d like to do a couple of things that I’ve never really done before in a Minecraft world like some of the achievements just you know getting better at General

Survival stuff on the building side of things I’d like to go for some different themes but for now it’s just a starter house so things are going to start pretty simple oh this cave I Don’t Mind If I Do hello spider seems to be just a baby

Cave but we can get some coal so that’s good more iron that’s what we like to see okay we’ve gotten acquire Hardware there’s even more smelting I think it’s safe to say we can officially make our first chest plate that’s right go in armor I’m scared it’s a new world and

Stuff guys it can’t be too safe but of course we will also be going with a iron pickaxe I will use the stone one first though and a sword since we didn’t actually make one of those yet we’ll keep the first wooden pickaxe for safe keeping it’s all about survival in these

First couple of episodes getting established in the world before we dream too big I really think that spider is just guarding the emeralds hey my Monster Hunter or sorry I’m a big fan of a fairly simple starter house just big enough to do the trick and to be nice and quaint

And cozy for me it’s not every day you get a view like this for a starter home so we’re gonna go with a fancy little front deck action this is pretty cool I think I’ve always wanted a wrap around deck in real life so I feel like doing

One in Minecraft simple little roof should be pretty cute I think you know there’s something nostalgic about going back to the spruce wood and Oak pallets it’s nice boy do I make a lot of mistakes I think it’ll be weird to have an oak wood floor hopefully that’s not weird

Sun is setting it’s about to be our first night and our new house a little Breezy but it’ll do the trick a couple little details along the deck of course just to finish it off and some safety railing because of how I am as a person

All right now I know it’s not much but it’s an honest starter house it’s got a nice deck a great view everything you would need on the inside it’s good it could definitely be better though if I’m to turn this Grove into a place where we can actually survive and thrive then we

Need to get surviving it’s basically a really long way for me to say I need to farm we need food bread is not gonna last forever okay two problems first of all no water second of all no wood luckily for me the wood problem is easily fixed with the trees

On the other side of the mountain and the water problem can be fixed too I just need a bucket luckily there’s actually a ton of iron right near where I’m living I didn’t expect the ore population to be so dense up high in the mountains but it actually is 24 more

Iron that’s not bad bucket acquired now it’s just to find a water source this high up yay don’t mind if I do thank you now I know this isn’t necessary for the functionality of a farm but I thought I would make it look pretty aesthetic as well since we’re building up in a

Mountain I want this place to look like it’s supported sort of here trusty iron hoe and hopefully this should do it for the fields it’s our very first Farm everyone I know it’s not much but we’re working on it if we could just get a couple of wheat seeds that would be

Ideal much grass am I gonna have to break to get seeds hello Minecraft seed thank you I’ve punched quite a lot of grass and I’ve gotten four seeds but good news peonies excuse me who are you and what are you doing here that’s legitimately I don’t have a

Shield I do I do not have a shield I would like to go home I would like you to go home I would like everybody to go home I’m just farming I’m farming can’t you see I’m farming this Grove has not as peaceful as I originally anticipated not to fear though

I have a shield that’s what I thought not so scary now huh I didn’t even I didn’t even use the shield it was the confidence boost I needed the confidence boost hello are you the leader thank you ouch ouch oh I might actually need the shield here

I’m fine uh I’m uh this is fine I have bread you have piercing I don’t like that I don’t like that one bit okay good news we have the banner of our enemies bad news we’ve been poisoned by the enemies this side I keep any future pests out

And peonies I know they don’t like peonies right it’s a brand new day and it’s time to search for a heel to my bad Omen the heel will come in the form of milk which means I need either a goat or a cow I say neither at the moment I see

A pig you can’t milk pigs I see donkeys I don’t think you can milk donkeys oh is that a goat I think I saw a goat very treacherous climb up the mountain but it’s okay I need healing hello goats I require a rescue service thank you oh oh that was magical wow

Okay I’ll take one for the road thank you it’s snowing everyone well if this is not the most magical thing I’ve ever seen but I’m genuinely so pleased with this what is going on well as awesome as this is It’s a Long High cone we’d better get started

You know what I bet the rain is good for the crops anyways store our milk away in the kitchen and I’ve had an idea everyone I want to be like a protector of this Grove this is my Grove now it’s under my protection there should be no

More baddies anywhere in sight but in order to uphold that rule I need a watchtower a place where I can guard everything that happens in here for my own safety and the safety of the goat residents first things first though I’m gonna need a lot of supplies this next

Part of my plan calls for some Mining and I see the perfect place I think possibly I’m not gonna lie to you this could just be a really pretty crack and it’s it’s just a really pretty crack in the ground okay all right I’ve been baited chickens have you seen a good

Place to mine okay take two oh that looks promising and terrifying hello hello skeletons yeah why did it have to be a million skeletons in the cave why can’t we ever have bunnies in a cave do you know fluffy bunnies in a cave you guys ever heard of that wouldn’t that be

Cool oh all right okay you know this one might be a little too advanced for me okay you know what I’m feeling brave let’s go in creeper not a big deal we can handle creepers foreign good news I’ve collected some iron and hopefully I’ll be able to make some pants

Pants acquired you know what we may as well get the emerald while we’re at it it’s so pretty there’s so much of it we’ve got some boots right zombies I put my pants on I’m ready to Take On The World don’t mess with me oh boy this looks like an extremely deep

Cavern look at that whoa I don’t know if we’re ready to take on something like this the good news is for my Watchtower I just need some materials like Cobblestone coal iron andesite things to build out of so we don’t need to go too deep I see some

Andesite right there so if we just wiggle our way down here hello perfect I love the way that andesite and granite and things spawn now it’s kind of cool look at that cave oh I’m excited for some exploration later oh hi hey all right man and a site please

I think about a stack of andesite blocks should do it for my starter guard Tower mission accomplished I think time to leave oh look at the sun just setting over the mountains it’s perfect it’s my perfect Grove wait we’ve got our first harvest ready as well four seeds with this helmet I officially

Have a full set of iron armor this is a good first step to our defenses but an even better step would be to build a tower so my game plan is to just attach the guard Tower to the starter house like so hopefully we’ll be able to

Access a ladder in here and climb all the way up with the plan in action I quickly got to work on my guard Tower but I kind of forgot how many materials things require in the early game so I had to gather some Cobblestone and head

Off into the forest to chop down one of those giant spruce trees this was massively helpful and with those materials I was able to finish off the guard Tower which is just a really simple Cobblestone and aside column with a pretty roof on top it’s kind of Tangled movie inspired honestly don’t

Know a ton about defense but this feels like a very strong start I have a great view of the Grove I know it’s a starter house but I still love just placing in all of the little details that make it look more like a home oh that looks

Great so far what a good guard Tower I know what it needs though cheers bushes it needs pushes honestly one of the absolute best lazy detail blocks is just signs we’re just gonna play Signs and it doesn’t add much for depth but that little bit of color really helps I think yes

Must Place Moss good good now as for the interior if I break this wall I’m in the tower now while I’m not sure exactly what I want to do with this Tower we definitely need a ladder for now up we go it’s perfect home sweet home it’s not much but it’s

Honest work now while I’m in the process of placing slabs everywhere we need a pathway I’ve put my pathway going this way towards the bulk of the inside of the Grove but we need a way down into the farms and I’m thinking spiral staircase I mean I’m a sucker for a good

Spiral staircase on a normal day but this pathway just kind of Screams spiral staircase it’d be cruel not to put one here really okay perfect I’ve got a spiral staircase now going around the tower towards my entrance and down to the farm I love it of course up at the

Top here we’ll just get the path kind of roughly going towards the staircase that’ll work you know I realize I’ve done all of this defensive prep and uh well I’ve not done a door anybody can walk in here problem solved door placed beautiful now that we have a door I

Think we can officially call this a starter house and now that things are kept very safe with my tower I feel like it’s time for the next stage there are a few Necessities that every good survival world must have in my opinion one of those very important things is a room

For an animal pen so I think if we just build up this little area over here we should be able to squeeze in some lovely furry creatures okay it’s a very organic shape but I think that gives it some charm now we just need animals for it specifically we

Actually need cows and unfortunately when I was looking for milk earlier I didn’t see any in the Grove so we have to populate the Grove with some cows now uh does anybody see any cows because I don’t oh oh oh what is that whoa what what I’m sinking in it wait

Is this oh this is snowy or snow oh gosh oh gosh oh gosh I need to get out I need to get out of there oh my goodness wait that’s kind of cool though makes you shiver oh what I actually love that effect I know

It’s meant to kill me but it’s kind of cool oh and speaking of I see a cow way over there all right okay we’ll go on a journey One Singular cow oh boy I really need you to have at least one friend we would find the one introverted cow in

The forest come on there we go I found you a friend now the only thing stopping us is that whole Mountain should be fine I’m sure we got it it was in fact not fine I looked at an Enderman though I’ve hit a cow how’s it going so wrong ha I was

How is it even possible for this many things to go wrong come on then oh my goodness what is this [Laughter] oh my goodness some Graves for our fallen cows yay now we have to look for More Cows good good aha cows hello hello I promise I will keep you safe

I promise okay wonderful good I’m glad we’re on the same page we’re going up that mountain honestly I do think this is going fairly well so far almost home come on come on wonderful home safe before the sun even sets and now there’s a child now that’s what I

Call a successful day nothing like a baked potato on the patio okay so cow Farm is going well starter house is going well guard Tower went well Farms are going well what are we missing we’re missing sugar cane somehow I haven’t picked up any sugar cane in my Journeys

And I don’t see any in the Grove so once again we check back up the mountain to supply The Grove with some much-needed new flora and fauna I’m hoping we’ll see some water and some sugar canes over here where we spawned don’t fall down there is that lapis expose what

Oh this might have been a mistake hi glow squids I just I just wanted to see the lapis I’m sorry I’m so sorry I’m sorry yep whoa whoa look at this we can get our first lapis right here um sorry I just I just really I really

Wanted that I’m sorry okay I know I’m getting distracted but like just a quick peek come on I mean caves are so cool now I uh I have to dig my way back up this is awkward oh I got distracted and now the Sun is setting

I’m gonna have to sleep in a village for a moment uh awkward okay back on the mission sugar cane really need sugar cane this ocean down here is looking promising whoa is that an ice Spike over there that’s so beautiful that’s not the mission though the sugar cane right over there I

See some nothing new in the ocean that can kill us right they didn’t add sharks to this update uh I hope oh there are a lot of drowns sugar okay don’t mind if I do uh sorry sorry excuse me I just needed sugar cane I’m so sorry okay mission accomplished

We’ll come back here another day to explore and set up maybe a little secondary base honestly the things that I do for water in this new update plucking it from the mountains don’t mind me and my base from up here though so cool okay I know it’s not perfect but

I think this can be our little mini sugarcane farm for now I should do the trick and it’s easy access for my starter house sometimes when I’m just hanging out in my survival world I try to think of things that I could possibly craft that could make a cool details

Like composters they’re super easy to get in the early game and this is oh my goodness composters are super easy to get in the early game and they’re really cute as like a little farm Edge design I use them almost all the time I just really like the way they look plus

They’re functional as well and then if you’re not a big fan of the tops of them all you gotta do is make some trap doors and you can just go around and give your farm a cute little border I like that it looks a lot more official you can also

Go ahead and waterlog a stair to be in there so there’s still water in there for the crops but uh you can’t walk in the water which saves the annoyance I feel like I’ve spent so long in this world so far just kind of vibing chilling like moving around doing

Various tasks that I need done I cleaned up my house a little bit I really like it I’ve been on smps for so long I’m not used to being able to set the pace in the world myself there’s no pressure in this world to move at any Pace other

Than the one that I want to which is really nice because it means I can get distracted as many times as I want smokers yes honestly as far as starter houses go I think this is a pretty good one I will sacrifice exactly one iron or a lantern

But it’s worth it look how cute this starter home Has Come Together wonderfully and there’s only one thing missing now Dandy I told you I’d come back for you see come on I built us a whole home it’s beautiful you’re gonna love it uh you didn’t tell me you had so many

Friends Dandy I am attracting every sheep in a seven mile radius it’s a lot to handle it’s uh mildly concerning I don’t know if you’ve ever tried to scale the side of a mountain with two sheep but uh it’s difficult it’s very difficult Dandy you’ve pushed off your only friend Dandy

It’s the Grove beautiful isn’t it come on we’re home just in time to see the sunset you ever just sit on the edge of a cliff with your favorite pink sheep and watch the sunset in Minecraft and be there until right now but you know it’s actually quite fun it’s quite good now

We are going to have to speed up this process if we want to survive the night arrow in the shoulder but uh it’s fine I’ve got Dandy and we’re home do you not know how to work a door okay all right come on in perfect home sweet home Sandy

Do you like it here you can have a treat now a slight oversight on my part I don’t have Windows okay though we compromise we overcome these challenges fences fences are windows you and I are going to be very happy here Dandy very happy indeed well what a lovely day it
