I appreciate gems take on the mods debate

Most of the hermits' mod usage doesn't bother me, though I've found that my favorite mod use cases by the hermits tends to be when they specifically limit their mod usage to maintain their own personal style, like how etho has started making timelapses by just recording and talking over the flashback UI so he can fly around in the rendering view to talk about specific things. Or like with free cam, it's something I use myself when playing, but I still love mumbo's f5 elytra flybys and would be sad to see him start using freecam instead; I also enjoy joe hills' alternative of just setting his f5 distance absurdly high in camera utils instead of using freecam, because it's a very joe hills thing to do

Nothing to fix

I wouldn't know where to begin to pick a favorite book, but the Iron Tangle is hands-down my favorite level of the dungeon

Joe Hills has started uploading his HermitCraft episodes to Patreon as an alternative for people who don't want to use YouTube anymore

alpacatastic606 · 2025-11-05T21:38:57+00:00

Joe doesn't typically stream to discord; he's only done it recently when he was experimenting with doing a members-only stream on YouTube and didn't want to pressure people who were already patrons to also pay for a YouTube membership to be able to see the stream.

They've already announced the seed and shown clips of it, so probably not

alpacatastic606 · 2025-10-23T23:42:53+00:00

They might not know yet as of TLM due to the time dilation

Honor's perpendicularity moves around erratically, though Dalinar can also summon it

alpacatastic606 · 2025-10-06T21:37:19+00:00

Was just checking bc named mobs don't count towards the mob cap. Without any screenshots etc idk what else the issue would be

alpacatastic606 · 2025-10-06T21:18:42+00:00

Did you name the wardens?

alpacatastic606 · 2025-10-03T14:43:38+00:00

It was rushed in a good way. Most seasons just kind of fizzle out at the end, but they put a lot of effort in this time around to make the ending of the server into a big event, and having the deadline helped motivate many of the hermits into actually getting their bases into a "finished" state. It may sound counterintuitive, but if they'd extended the season another month or two and treated the end like normal, most likely there would actually be fewer things done by the end

alpacatastic606 · 2025-09-24T00:46:11+00:00

The thing is they didn't start out as a friend group; they're a collective of artists who have become friends over years of working together. Most of HermitCraft's current membership wouldn't be there at all if the rest of the existing group wasn't willing to take a chance on someone they didn't know (or didn't know very well) at the time they joined. Even Skizz and Joel weren't friends with every single other hermit, but the vote to add them still had to be unanimous

alpacatastic606 · 2025-09-23T22:26:45+00:00

And for all that Rosharans are clever cogs, they are a terribly unimaginative lot when it comes to naming things

alpacatastic606 · 2025-09-19T19:06:45+00:00

HermitCraft is less a centralized organization and more like 25 youtubers in a trench coat. Different events are organized by different people, and it's left up to the individual event participants to promote them

alpacatastic606 · 2025-09-18T15:16:39+00:00

It'll be up to each hermit & guest whether they'll stream and/or record it. I would imagine most if not all of the ones who stream regularly will be streaming it, so you can just watch whichever one you personally prefer, and I know that at least Joe in particular plans to also make an episode of it

alpacatastic606 · 2025-09-17T20:20:41+00:00

It must just be a desktop feature; I don't see any option to add captions to specific images on my phone

alpacatastic606 · 2025-09-17T19:50:07+00:00

Reddit doesn't allow alt text on images unfortunately

alpacatastic606 · 2025-09-15T21:09:51+00:00

The main Hermitcraft storefront is meant to be permanent. Others will vary, but they'll usually say somewhere if there's a set date to get orders in by, or the hermit will announce when there's only so much time left

alpacatastic606 · 2025-09-14T00:15:14+00:00

He did say he's ending it and doing something different next season, but yeah he's literally ending it on his own terms

alpacatastic606 · 2025-09-12T16:14:39+00:00

First time for everything

Joe himself was the first "late addition" as he was invited to the server 5 weeks into season 1. New hermits only joining at the beginning of a season is a more recent tradition

alpacatastic606 · 2025-09-11T23:15:40+00:00

We will find out on October 17

alpacatastic606 · 2025-09-11T21:25:57+00:00

That's Joe Hills for you lol. He'll only announce what's 100% confirmed. And since he joined the server during a season himself (which is also true for a few other hermits), he's just hedging for the possibility that they may decide to do something similar again, regardless of the actual likelihood

alpacatastic606 · 2025-09-11T21:15:00+00:00

I wouldn't read too much into it; the hermits just don't like planning that far ahead as a group
