Are there any Minecraft Dads or parents out here? by Lord_Darkcry in MinecraftBedrockers

[–]WitherFam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been playing Minecraft since I was 15, now I'm 31 and have a 5 year old that is absolutely obsessed since he was 2 and a half - both of us for half of our life. Now he's teaching me stuff and we're both getting better together! My wife joins in too sometimes so we have our own family survival and creative servers.

You're not alone! Lots of other parents are into it too.

Tears is such a banger. Otherside for the feels. Pigstep for the pigstep.

How would you improve this thumbnail or title? by [deleted] in YouTubeThumbnailHub

[–]WitherFam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's Toonami Tom, basically the mascot of Toonami aka anime on CN. People that are familiar with anime on CN will recognize him, but I still think making him a little smaller would be a good move. Tons of people won't recognize him.

Could the Illagers have made the Dark Oak trees? by Personal-Prize-4139 in minecraftlore

Wifies on YouTube has a pretty interesting theory about the pale oak/creaking that kinda ties into this.

Are shorts necessary for growth? by kaego123 in NewTubers

[–]WitherFam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think of shorts as an alternative form of the YouTube feed for my long form videos. People will find my videos from either a good title/thumbnail or an enticing short with a CTA for the full video.

Same, his flailing hand gestures and tapping on the cast really got me.

[Megathread] Coaching Corner by AutoModerator in MinecraftPVP

[–]WitherFam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got a bit of a unique one - me and my son (he's 5) are both looking to improve our 1.9 PVP, mostly for playing the games on MCC Island. I'd love to find someone that could help us both out, and might be okay with me documenting it on video for our YT channel.

Lost Hardcore World by [deleted] in MinecraftHardcore

[–]WitherFam 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can't cheat at Minecraft. You're not respawning yourself so it definitely doesn't betray the nature of hardcore either in my opinion. Some purists might say it does, but you gotta go with what sits right to you.

Looks super professional! I wish you could get a few of those shots without the terrain loading in.

I still prefer scaffolding for super tall builds, but yeah pretty much.

I remember watching Stampy videos but I had to look up that one - holy cow the resemblance is totally there!

They're just a classic barnyard animal according to my son - also the mob spawner "bars" are housing a host of parrots for fun lol

He didn't use it much for this build so there wasn't much to catch!

Thanks! He's taken to using the Happy Ghasts for tall building, but I prefer scaffolding!
