PaulGG – I Transformed The Nether Portal In Hardcore Minecraft! (#97)

Today’s spicy hardcore video guys i built an insane other hub this thing took an insane amount of time and it was a ton of work so make sure you guys watch the video all the way through to see how it turns out and if you guys do

Go on to enjoy the video make sure you guys smash that like button hit subscribe join the paul gt army and let’s get into the video that’s right we’re finally working on building who where where’s your guy we’re finally working on building another hub though um and that’s

Something i’ve been slacking on here we go how you doing sir what are you selling some of that drip stone well i have a whole cave of it below my house so uh moving on but i’ve been slacking on building another hub for the longest time i’ve basically just been you know

Working out of out of this this beautiful but it’s about time i start working on something new and obviously to be able to do that i’m going to have to tear this all down first and then now that the dookie shack is all out of the way i’m going to make

This the center point of the hub because i don’t want to have to deal with moving the portal and everything like that now i want to try to map out the outline of this entire beast i want it to be a pretty big circle kind of like how i

Built this nether village it’s just a giant circle except this is gonna be the center point for it and then i’ll probably get rid of all these ice highways from a long long time ago back before i even had an elytra and then i’ll create new nether highways

Basically later we’ll do that for another video probably but for now i want to map this whole thing out but i want to do it with obsidian which is it’s going gonna be dumb but it’s also gonna make sense here in a minute so hold on and so i figured the fastest way

To get all this obsidian is of course to just go to the end and probably mine out one of these pillars that’s not before i add a beacon of course and then now that we got haste 2 what i want to do is pretty much just mine out one of these

Giant towers and get an insane amount of obsidian that i probably will never need to get obsidian ever again in this world we’ll see how this goes And i’ll be honest even with haste too this is uh this is taking quite quite the time and i hate obsidian 2 000 years later and finally with a little over four stacks we should be chinchillin i should have plenty of obsidian for this now it’s time to officially map this

Thing out real quick oh my god oh my god there’s creeper oh my god oh my god oh my god let me love you and for outlining this i do want it to be a pretty big circle and hmm right before i map it out i am going to

Have to figure out exactly how this thing is going to be laid out by the distance all the portals are going to be from the center which i want to do that like 4 portal thing or whatever that a lot of people do i think it looks very

Snazzy i’m not going to lie except this one yeah that’s uh i said that looks a little thick um there we go a little something like that so then now we have four portals and honestly i haven’t even tested wait why is this one wide and then this one’s not

Wait this one’s wide wait a second i messed this up again hold on there we go now they’re all even and they’re all normal sized portals which honestly it might even look cool if i make this just super tall we’ll see how it goes but regardless portals are done

I need to check to make sure that this thing even links up with uh my home portal which it does beautifully oh my god the creepers and now i need to do is kind of map out the distance that i want to go for this thing because basically

My goal here is to remove all the bedrock on the inside of this and that’s going to take a very long time this is a very big project one two three four five six seven so i don’t want it to be too massive because i like bedrock’s thick

It’s on thicker mode bro like i have to sit here and get rid of up to this layer so it’d be one two three four five oh my god what did i get myself into i have to do the the tnt glitch on this bedrock that

Many times but that’s why i wanted to build the outline of this thing out of obsidian so that i know what bedrock i need to get rid of and since i’m blowing up a lot of tnt i don’t want to blow up my outline and i only want to blow up

What’s inside the circle because obviously once you get rid of bedrock it’s gone forever and i can’t put it back so i don’t want it to be ugly patchy holes up here all right now i officially mapped out the entire thing i started out with wood because i don’t

Want to make any mistakes and then have to you know break down all the obsidian again also i widen the portal one more time because i wanted to have a one lane center row thing it’ll make sense later when we start making highways regardless this is our circle this is what we gotta

Work with right now like i said i don’t want the circle itself to be too big because i’m gonna have to break every single one of these pieces of bedrock up to like five blocks down and it’s gonna be a lot so now let me just real quick

Replace all of this with obsidian Now that we have everything completely mapped out and planned out now let me go back to the overworld so we can start gathering up all the resources actually before i go resource gathering and one thing i do want to do that i’ve been uh procrastinating for a little

While is actually dyeing all my shulker boxes because they’re all pink and i’m tired of just having a bunch of pink ones because it’s getting confusing because my main pink purse is my pink one and one other thing that we need to do real quick is every single video i

Name a sheep after some of my viewers why you guys want this i don’t know if you guys want to join the sheep army and the last video i had you guys join the discord and type in a specific channel what color and what name you wanted the

Sheep to be and these sheep are going to be josh wanted purple then we got waddles that wants pink and then we got as a black sheep if you guys want to see how big the subscriber sheep army goes uh guys instead of commenting down below

On this video i want you guys to tweet me hashtag paul’s sheep army with a name and a color of what you guys want cause this thing is uh it’s getting out of hand it’s getting pretty crazy i definitely need to relocate all you guys it’s it’s just too much in there but

Back to gathering though i’m going to need a whole lot of sand a disgusting amount of sand actually because i got to make a lot of pretty glass and we’re just draining out this desert every episode little by little it’s just happening so let me get a bunch of sand real quick

And after shoveling my life away our little spoon is it’s hurting right now but we did manage to get two full shulker boxes which i’m probably gonna need a whole lot more than that i’ll be honest but for now next thing i do need to do though is grab a bunch of

Gunpowder because i’m going to need a lot of tnt but luckily i do have a lot of gunpowder oh i was kind of hoping for more actually because this farm it’s just pumping i need to set up some of these towers to be only creepers that

Spawn and to be able to do that all i really need to do is add trap doors but look how many creepers are spawning anyways man so many and finally we got all of our tnt now is it going to be enough i don’t know i

Might have to afk at this thing for a little bit to be able to get a little bit more gunpowder but for now we’re gonna see if it works the last thing i know for sure that i’m gonna need is some terracotta now ideally i want to get blue terracotta but i don’t

I don’t think blue terracotta spot what do you what you have blue terracotta you got blue ice i mean that’s that’s close enough right um what i think i’m gonna have to do is mine up regular terracotta and then diet blue i’m like 99 certain i

Can do that so let’s hope that i don’t waste my time mining up tons and tons of this terracotta all i want is this thing to look cool that’s all that matters to me i need the aesthetics to be there for this build i got people in the comments

Section complaining paul you always use spruce wood paul you always use stone brick hey well now you can shut your face i’m using some different colors and some some pretty patties okay all right now that we got our tools fully healed up we actually want to try something

Real quick all these guys are they going to run off and try to chase me no they’re not absolute betas how dare you not chase me come on come get me all right regardless though now that we’re oh they’re actually pushing we’re all healed up and now we’re

Officially ready to build this thing and i’ve also got all the resources that i’m gonna need to being able to actually build this whole thing up then this whole thing i’m probably going to build it all out of like deep slate and now this whole thing i’m probably

As i was saying i’m probably going to build this whole thing out of deep slate which i don’t mind any deep slate i’m just kidding of course i mined deep slate i mined up a ton of deep slate actually But now i got this giant mess right here from all these stupid zombie piglets falling on me now the first thing i’m gonna have to do before constructing this entire thing is to actually get rid of all of this bedrock and it’s just this is gonna take an absolutely

Disgusting amount of time but we’re here for the big builds baby this is what we do let’s see how this goes real quick luckily i’m pretty good at doing this glitch so i thought um basically every time that the tnt blows up and a piston gets

Erased i place down a piston and then it makes a hole now i have to do that hundreds of times but luckily like i said i’m i’m pretty good at this oh my gosh i want you guys to know uh i don’t want anyone to ever have to do

This this is this is painful i heavily underestimated how ridiculous this is gonna take like like this is i’ve been at it for so long already and i’ve barely gotten this far my finger hurts so i would definitely never recommend you know what i’m taking

A break i’m thinking i’m i’m a step away i’m taking a break they fall and after spending three hours yesterday blowing up all this bedrock we’ve now officially removed the entire first layer and now begins the next layer there we go that should be it that should be the last explosion the last

One that i need this has been quite the time i heavily heavily underestimated how much time was actually going to be spent on blowing up each and every single one of these pieces of bedrock for the size that this is i actually i regret making it as big as i did i kind

Of wish i made it way smaller but it’s officially done and now all i need to do is mine all the way down because i want to make the circle go all the way down which right here i mean it looks pretty easy considering that this is like

Ninety percent already dug out but you know i mean either way here we go And after much time and a lot of mining we finally have a tunnel that goes all the way through this looks scary hold on let me go all the way up this looks very scary to look at now i can freely just go all the way down here for the

Time being that is because now it’s officially time to start constructing the actual building all this has just been a bunch of mining basically whether it be tnt mining or mining with my pickaxe now it’s officially time it’s probably something i should have done while tnt mining all this and that is to

Build an auto smelter uh to be able to smelt down all of the sand and turn it all into glass and everything and uh i realized i goofed i i should have been smelting all this in the meantime let me just fill up all these chests basically

With sand and then real quick i need to get some fuel which luckily we’re in the nether and we do have a blaze spawner farm which i literally just made for fuel so actually should already have yeah i was gonna say a lot of blaze routes i don’t even need afk at this

Thing nice and now all we got to do is just wait isn’t waiting exciting no it’s not okay i’m gonna go do something else in the meantime that’s something else being collecting flowers that is because i’m gonna need a whole lot more dyes because i’m gonna have to

Dye a lot of glass and i think this is actually the flour that i need because when you bone meal it literally just gives you more of the same flour it’s actually cracked and then that should be plenty of flours for magenta dye now i need to make a

Bunch of purple dye and then we should be chilling on all the dyes now let’s go check in on our sand and it looks like well actually no it’s made oh no it didn’t make a lot of progress at all it’s just it’s all just inside the hoppers well that’s that’s depression

I’m gonna see if i got some sand in the giant underwater storage unit by sand i mean glass by the way i do not want more sand hey we do actually have a decent bit of glass so we could get this project started so now let me dye up a

Bunch of purple that’s not how you dye glass oh wait i know how it goes it goes like this there we go we dye a bunch of purple glass and then also a bunch of magenta glass now what i want to do for this next part is basically make the

Entire floor out of glass i’ve seen a lot of youtubers make their like nether hubs have this like kind of purple glass floor to kind of mirror the nether portal however big shout out to san diego having like a really cool looking floor and he basically combined magenta

And purple to be able to create like this really layered effect that i don’t know it just has a really nice aesthetic so i’m gonna start off though with basically just filling purple uh throughout this entire thing and here we go oh well that’s all my purple glass

I’m gonna do a whole lot more than i thought and at least this is already smelting away i just also realized an issue with this though now i now it’s gonna be hard for me to place the bottom layers now i gotta work underneath this one i should

Have started from the bottom going up oh well i’m just too committed to building out this layer and then now that this first layer is all done it’s time to begin with the next one but like i said i think what i’m gonna do is probably

Work from the bottom up let me grab so i got my magenta glass i’m gonna just drop in like right here i’m going to literally just uh block clutch a little bit i don’t know if this is going to be low enough but we’ll find out so it’s going to go

Magenta purple magenta purple magenta purple no that’s not going to work doesn’t go magenta into purple magenta purple magenta okay so i gotta go right here and then we’ll see how many layers i have to do for this but all i know is it’s gonna take a really really long

Time to fill all this in and wait for all that sand to smelt And finally it’s done all the glasses placed in the floor if i do say so myself looks incredible look at this look at this thing like it looks amazing there’s just a faint little drop right here because that’s where i added the hole so i could be able to fall into the

Nether but it just looks so good it was definitely worth every single piece of glass the only thing that sucks is that i i can’t really outline all the bedrock for the bedrock that is visible but even then though it still kind of looks sick i definitely like this a lot now all

That’s left to do is actually construct the entire thing the entirety of this thing actually build it up i just realized that i’ve done all this work and i’ve spent days on this and uh i haven’t even started building really yet um and i was getting ready to build this

Thing up and then today i actually learned there’s a difference between deep slate and uh cobbled deep slate um i didn’t know that at all uh and apparently you can actually craft cobble deep slate into stuff you cannot craft regular deep slate into stuff so now the

Hundreds of blocks that i already mined of deep slate i have to turn into cobble deep slate now okay all right now that i got all my deep slate and everything now it’s time to start actually building this up what i want to do is basically make all the

Walls completely out of deep slate which i’m realizing now that i kind of goofed with how i was gonna do my outline for this um that’s fine we move on uh yeah this will still definitely work for what i wanna do so i’ll probably start by getting rid of all of this obsidian

Finally and just replace it all with deep slate starting out the realization that i messed up and this thing does need to be bigger however i’m not gonna break all this glass and any more of this bedrock so what i think i’m gonna do is i’m

Gonna finesse it in a way that it should work fine it’s gonna kind of expand outwards and then i can be able to fill in all this bedrock with some slabs and stuff like that to be able to kind of hide it it’ll look good trust the

Process that’s all i gotta say and now i’ve officially completed the entire outline yet again but honestly i think this might actually work into my favor because now i could be able to start adding a little bit of depth with the the slabs idea and stuff like that so i

Think this is gonna work out perfectly but basically each one of these are going to be like the entryway tunnels i do also want to start mixing in some color kind of like this blue terracotta that we got earlier because if i use blue terracotta it kind of matches with

The purpley theme because let’s be real that ain’t blue uh so let’s just experiment real quick with this if i’m being honest this kind of goes hard i’m not gonna lie this looks cool i’m vibing with this color scheme right now this like purpley purple this is

Really good the only other thing is that i want to complete like the entryway hallway so you don’t see any color going in because the color is going to transition to a different color when we go inside and then all i really need to do is kind of build this up actually

Hold on we got an opportunity for a window up here oh yeah now i’m vibing pretty heavy with this design so far now like i said all i got to really do is just kind of repeat that on each one of these sides and we should be chilling All right quick update i’ve officially built up all the entryways i’ve kind of added some white courts to maybe break up the color not sure if i like it or not because on the inside i want it to be a transition to white and black pretty much with the purple i don’t know

If it looks good on the outside but now i also have the next challenge of doing the roof and i don’t know how this is going to turn out because right now that’s kind of ugly and i just we’ll see we’ll see how this goes because normally

I’m terrible at roofs it’s actually just my kryptonite and now that i’m finished up with the entire roof what i want to do for this next part is pretty much transition everything into being white and black on the inside just i don’t know why it’s a little bit of a

Spicy change up even though i kind of vibe with this like maybe if i replace the white with purple honestly you know what screw it i changed my mind here for a second ports be gone thought we’re changing it up now what i need to do is kind of work on

Designing the inside real quick and cover up all this nasty bedrock and i’m gonna try to still work some quartz into this just as another contrasting color and then now all i want to do is jump down into this giant pull a lot number three oh my god it’s happening i’m

Burning ah i’m insane relax dude i just gotta eat my potatoes and stay healthy and avoid whatever gas where is this cast and then i’m gonna scoop up some lava real quick and then i wanna add a little bit of accents of just some lava over here in the corners just like some

Private lava ponds basically one thing i realized i do want to do for this roof is kind of split it open a little bit where i can add some glass just does a little bit of accent but also an exit so that when i go into the nether i could

Be able to fly up and out to go to the gold farm go to the piglens let’s see how that looks from the inside and yeah now it looks pretty good so then now i can easily just like oh god because for each of these

Hallways what my plan is and i want to create walls like this with ice runways that’ll just go all the way out kind of like how i did a very long time ago with those except they’ll be much farther and much much more effective so i can still

Run out like this or i can be able to take the ice runways all the way through those ice runways are gonna be for another episode for sure but for now though i mean honestly i’m kind of vibing with the way that this turned out comment down below what would you guys

Add to this what could i change other than maybe hmm adding a little bit of like shroom lights or something like that here and there i might make the portal stretch all the way to the top but at the same time then that kind of change up the shape of the roof and

Everything i don’t know i’m kind of liking this i kind of like the way this looks so comment down below what’s anything else that you guys would change about this for now that’s me for this video guys hope you guys did enjoy and if you did make sure you guys smash that
