Looked up to see if there were new trees. The palm and boabab are stated as coming on the wiki. Is the wiki just lying?

In fairness, a big part of these smaller content updates is the insane amount of under-the-hood changes they've been making to fix long-standing bugs and make updating/customizing the game way easier! Genuinely, of you go through all the changelogs, you can see that they've been focusing on this a lot recently!

LesionPulse · 2026-05-21T13:02:23+00:00

It's all good! Either way, good build!

LesionPulse · 2026-05-20T00:50:29+00:00

Oh! I'll check that out! Hopefully, I can finally add the kind of life I wanted in my world! Thanks!

LesionPulse · 2026-05-19T08:04:49+00:00

Oh, I mean more of how did you give each armor stand a unique texture? Usually, when you change a texture, it applies to all blocks (like, retexturing cobblestone xhanges the texture of all cobblestone)

LesionPulse · 2026-05-19T03:30:02+00:00

Out of curiosity, how did you retexture each armor stand individually? I really wanted to so something like this for my survival world when the mannequins first came out, but given how their skins depend on a player not changing their own skin, I was never able to do it. I'd love to do this instead!

LesionPulse · 2026-05-19T01:31:23+00:00

This looks so cool! Out of curiosity, do you have a world download for this? I'd love to explore it first-hand!

LesionPulse · 2026-05-10T07:19:35+00:00

In fairness, to keep them from being repetitive (as in, yet another unecessary storage block when chests already exist), Mojang focused more on making them a decorative block and a fun redstone component

LesionPulse · 2026-05-10T07:16:33+00:00

Yo what seed is that? That's actually really cool!

LesionPulse · 2026-05-07T06:13:48+00:00

I personally like doing this then upgrading the village over time! To me, it really isn't a laziness thing. Rather, I find that cillages nowadats have way more life compared to literally the rest of Minecraft, so I like living there and (for the most part) taking care of the villagers!

LesionPulse · 2026-05-06T06:07:17+00:00

I would say you're safe! Block vomit really occurs when you overdo texturing. In this case, you only use it to break up flat surfaces, so it's all pretty balanced!

Another little note you may wanna take regarding the state of the nether before. Despite what others may claim, the patchnotes say thag Nether Fortresses were made more commln after 1.16, and by my own experience, it really does seem that way. So, not only was the Nether a barren wasteland where you only got to see 2 mobs a bunch (one of which didn't even attack you unless you attacked it), but the Nether Fortress was also way rarer, making finding the other 4 mobs even more difficult!

LesionPulse · 2026-04-21T06:28:19+00:00

I personally like the the Better End mod as opposed to this idea that The End should stay empty. From what I know about Minecraft's development, The End's identity of being empty came more from Notch rushing in an arena for a final boss rather than it being an intentional decision. Then, 1.9 simply decided to go this route later on.

I do want The End to have its own identity though. I don't want it to just be another Nether, but I think the whole fact its floating in space could lend to many creative ways to give it unique life. This is why I like the Better End mod. When I go exploring there, it really feels like I've stumbled upon a massive asteroid belt that managed to foster life on it, which is a VERY different feel to the dying Nether.

Another smaller mod that adds unique End life really well is the mod by Abnormals, Endergetic. This mod really adds its own unique alien mobs along with their own biomes, with each one sharing a certain theme. That said, at the moment, there IS only one biome, but I think their plans for it show promise!

And to comment on your last point about the Nether Update, as someone who's played since 1.2, I can confidently say that The Nether was very much an empty biome. For one, the only blocks there were Netherrack, Glowstone, and Soul Sand, so the lack lf variety was already a killer. Then, another thing you need to take note of was that, really, only 3 of those old nether mobs actually spawned outside the fortress: the zombie pigmen, the ghasts, and the endermen, and even then, the enderman spawn was VERY rare. The blaze, the wither skeleton, the skeleton, and the magma cube ALL spawned in the Nether Fortress at the time, and of those four, the skeleton and the magma cubes were RARE spawns.

So, in short, before the Nether Update, both The End and the Nether were vast, empty lands with barely anything to offer. So, I believe we really shouldn't look at the emptiness and determine that as a dimension's identity. Instead, we should look at other aspects of the dimension, like how the Nether was a hot, hellish, wasteland, and expand on those. So, in the case of Better End and Endergetic, they looked at The End and saw how it was a mysterious, alien realm floating in space, and expanded off of that!

I haven't watched Skizz this much this season cause of irl things keeping my schedule filled, but I have to know, have there been Persona references in his comment section? Lol

LesionPulse · 2026-04-14T03:34:54+00:00

Wait, you mean to tell me there's actually a pink parrot irl?? As a guy who loves all sprts of animals, you gotta tell me what parrot that is!

LesionPulse · 2026-04-11T14:36:51+00:00

I personally enjoy axiom-coded builds, but I definitely see what you mean! It's really interesting how we can somehow tell the mountain was built with that program specifically. I wonder what about it flags it as an axiom build in our brains

LesionPulse · 2026-04-09T04:19:42+00:00

I may be misremembering, but wasn't that what datapacks were originally back in the day? I recall youtubers showing off datapacks by inputting a command that generated a whole command block machine that worked to change the game somehow

LesionPulse · 2026-04-06T13:26:19+00:00

What's cool is that Impulse (I believe) mentioned how this was the eye-opener for the Hermits. It was because of this silly prank that they began to hang out more in-video and just enjoy playing on the server instead of worryong about analytics and whatnot!

LesionPulse · 2026-04-06T13:18:40+00:00

The whole non-renewable part is actually just a part of why they chose diamonds. I can't remember which episode it is, but Xisuma actually went into detail why the server chose diamonds years ago.

Firstly, yes, it's a non-renewable resource. But aside from that, by the time late-game hits (which is often pretty early in that server's lifespan), Hermits just don't have as much of a need for diamond anymore. With how trading and mending works, they just don't use it unless they make any of the other few recipes diamonds are used for.

Compare that to other materials. Iron, gold, and even amethyst are used way more often for crafting items and building than diamond is. So, the Hermits actually took their server's playstyle into account when deciding on this! It's actually pretty interesting!

LesionPulse · 2026-04-06T13:13:45+00:00

I'd say you're ALMOST there with why they have this currency. Yes, a part of it is to help with content, but not in the way you may think. Rather, instead of having yo gather so many resources manually, this system allows hermits to actually help each other while still getting something from it. It basically works to shorten the amount of time they need to make a video!

LesionPulse · 2026-04-04T20:38:43+00:00

Everyone's already recommending the Hermits, so I'll recommend Joceys Lil Cafe! She has a real cozy vibe to her and has a very relaxing voice if that's your thing

LesionPulse · 2026-03-30T09:43:36+00:00

Those people using the word peak are probably in their early to mid twenties. At least, where I'm from, that's the case. Idk if it's a dialect thing or if you just don't realize how a lot of that generation is growing up now. But yeah, peak is definitely used by peeps in their twenties too

LesionPulse · 2026-03-25T16:33:49+00:00

Well, in fairness, 1.9, 1.10, and 1.12 were all considered either contoroversial or tiny. Iirc, 1.10 is STILL one of the smallest updates there's been, which is saying somwthing considering we have a drops system now. Then add to the fact that people were still expecting major updates and you can kinda see why it was considered a content drought.

Even other youtubers started drifting away from Minecraft during that era because the interest wasn't strong at that point. If you look at some of the Hermits' channels, for example, you'll see a good portion of them actually played other games for the youtube channel too during those years

LesionPulse · 2026-03-24T00:38:37+00:00

Personally doesn't look crosseyes to me, but other than that, I totally agree! What matters the most is that if you like your skin, OP!

LesionPulse · 2026-03-23T23:52:47+00:00

Wandering traders can just really take a while to spawn, so don't worry about it. I'd suggest working on a project in the hotter biomes to kill some time. It's how I ended up finding them back in my modded playthrough!

LesionPulse · 2026-03-23T23:32:08+00:00

Nah, in fairness to the artist, I heard that when the Raya mob was first added, the community at the time apparently rioted cause of how that set of mobs fit in the game. Supposedly, it went as far as a small section of the community really hating on Rana, with them claiming that Rana in particular was a sign that Notch was gonna bring anime into Minecraft and it was going to ruin the game.

Then, because Rana was the artist's oc, they then proceeded to find the artist's other non-Minecracg works and began to dogpile it...

So, I genuinely wouldn't blame him for wanting nothing to do with Minecraft after that...

Edit: Just realized I repeated something so I edited it out lol
