- Minecraft has been around for so long that its actually had different fads and trends that have come in and out of fashion over the years. Let's take a look at a few trends we've seen and try and figure out why Minecrafts identity is so dynamic.

is nobody going to talk about the weird monster school thing that went WAY out of hand
it went soo way out of hand we dont talk about it broo its "that time on youtube"
Cousin bro loves it. He's 9. Help me
I used to like that. Only thing is I watched one guy mostly who really did good with it. It wasn't too cringey, wasn't too bizarre, and it was fun to watch. It sucks though that other people had to ruin it with the opposite of the things I described.
Ohh man, I used to love Willcraft's monster school. even rewatching it now, it's pretty entertaining. Honestly so far I really haven't seen any that captured the same charm, mainly just plain hard to watch.
eucalypi yeah, the original videos were good, but the stuff that people do now is completely nuts
remember when literally every skin was a guy with hair covering one eye with headphones
Don't forget a creeper face somewhere on your clothes!
GalaxyGlitch
And the really bright and crazy neons!
I actually had that kind of skin until recently when i changed it lmao. Too much nostalgia
@@TheGlitchRoom and the red/red pants and the nickname *opboipvp*
those are still prevalent, especially in the pvp community
Remember when everyone had to have a secret entrance? Ah yes good times...
Remember when people used to sneak into your base and do some MGS tactical espionage shit, instead of just blowing up everything after using f3 entities to find your base?
@@pyroparagon8945 and instead of taking your valuables it would just be your potatoes and they put in a few weird books
@@cursedcliff7562 Yessss the cursed books
8 year old me making a secret base knowing damn well that I have no friends to play with
I still add hidden rooms and emergency exits. Just in case it becomes cool again ... I'm ready.
Yall remember searching “cool skin” on your pc in 2013 and having these extreme neon skins with headphones? :D
...I had one of those skins
I had a neon and red and orange dragon girl skin. Those were some interesting times.
still a thing today isn’t it though?
how come have I encountered a member of the Oof Realm
Remember when almost noone made their own skins?
Yeah the emo creeper phase was really weird
IT WASNT A PHASE, MOM
Remember the mutant creatures era?
Isn't that a punk hairstyle though? The mohawk?
@@EpicGamer-fl7fn it really wasnt my mc name is still CCostPlayz (short for CreeperCost)
Totally!
You forgot about the MC Hunger Games era. Also had a great influence of the Battle Royal game style in general, some believe.
And the "pokemon go" era where everyone made pokemon related videos for the two months pokemon go took over literally the entire internet and doubled the cash the entire pokemon line had made over 20 years
MasterLink34 lol
Yeah, I remember playing BR in 2015, at the time most people hadn't even heard of the genre. Ironically, now, I hate BR games.
There are UHCs which are similar in the fact it's last Steve standing, but with the shrinking border added.
@@sandwichqueen i hate the border thing i loved that u had like 30min or so on a giant map and then all the survivors just got tp-d in the arena or the last 2-4 standing
You forgot the Miscellaneous generation that had Exploding TNT, and other of the like, that chaotic edited story telling format
Oh my gosh I used to be obsessed with those 6 minute story videos that were supposed to be funny but were really dumb...
Oh man I miss Exploding TNT. I remember when I used to play games on his server too.
I miss explodingTNT
I miss exploding tnt as well. Pink Sheep was my favourite though
this has unlocked a memory for me...
Remember the villager April fools prank
When everyone had a villager skin back in I think 2014
Good times
Wait that was 2014. Holy crap i remember watching dantdm on sneaky villager at the tine
Remember the villager news channel, an animation with villagers
jrseahorse
I’m pretty sure those are still being made actually. Search up “ElementAnimation”
@@pterogen3415 holy crap they are. Thats crazy
Yeah, good times
Remember when everyone's skin had green or blue anime eyes and a hoodie with a creeper face?
Don't forget about plaid bandanas, colored hair and headphones.
Never had that, my skin now has Swimmingbird's jacket which had a backpack, I decided it would look better if it were a creeper face
@@thanosguy576 what's a swimming bird's jacket?
@@timurtheterrible4062 He's a Nintendo youtuber who used to play minecraft, so I took the jacket from his skin
Timur The Terrible Oh yeah and those wolf tails
Current one would definitely be “meme-y” or the whole “Minecraft BUT” or challenge type stuff.
nah, that's just because the two or three youtubers doing those things just won't get out of anyone's recommended
Ayo Cloud Wolf love ya stuff
@@chudcel88 yeah, its mainly Dream and his friends. But it makes sense they get recommended to everyone though, those videos are very entertaining and even exiting
This. Most current popular videos are shitpost and/or reddit humor.
I wish Dream would get out of my recommended feed. I watched the episode where he played with Notch and now his vids won't get out of my feed. It might be interesting if he did more varied content but now it's nothing except "Minecraft BUT." It's also pretty obvious when you look back at his channel how his success piggybacked directly off of Pewdiepie's let's play.
When you hear Viva La Vida playing and think "oh this is a classic"
Then you realize that you only know the fallen kingdom version
LMAO I felt that
I used to ruleee the world
_chunks would load when I gave the word_
Man, that’s basically every one at this point
I gave all yall a like
@@mrbaconslicez Most assuredly not. Not everyone is 12 or around that age.
Not gonna talk about Hypixel/pvp? 42% of Mojang accounts have logged into Hypixel at least once.
Crap, only 42%? Could have sworn that nearly 90% had...
@@bukowskifamily7728 Well, as of April 2020, that's over 18 million accounts that have joined at least once.
I thought MinePlex had the largest player count at one point?
@@Jessie_Helms LMAO maybe 6 years ago. They get about 5k now at peak and Hypixel hits 90k at peak.
SEIC Bro
Like I said, *”at one point”* lol
I remember when “team crafted was huge” and CZcams was filled with parkour maps and screaming, but my fav time of all was when the jaffa factory was huge, thst got everyone interested in modpacks
That all was literally in another decade and it just gives me feels 😭😭
Crazy craft was also a big thing, but yogscast were so much better and more interesting than the other minecraft youtubers at the time
LISTEN. Team crafted's birth was the second of its decline. The very name a controversy in any circle that remembered seto-sorcerer's name.
But even that was entertaining, in a way. =P
the dozens of mod pack launchers around back in the early days of industrial craft and aether and thaumcraft
my brother has the same profile pic like you, “mr pigeon” lol
I was never followed him closely, but Paul Soares Jr. definitely had an impact on the community, his videos were on the Minecraft website itself!
He was also quoted on the Minecraft survival handbook, and so was CaptainSparklez
God he is like how the Greeks are to Western Civilization, the whole Minecraft "story line" (the order in which we tend to do tasks in Minecraft) was paved and set down by him
Torches on the right, caves lead to adventure...
@@regular_space Wait did he say to put torches on the right? I always wondered why I knew to do that.
Omg yes, if it wasn’t for his survive and thrive series I would have never had got into minecraft
I still remember the era when,
Everyone believed and kept talking about Herobrine 😂
Especially the thousands of Herobrine machinimas on CZcams
No one believed in Herobrine except the very small children
@@chuggaa100 A good chunk of minecraft was children. That era of superstition is gone, though, sadly.
When I was like 12 I convinced my little brother that Herobrine was griefing our Minecraft world, good times.
Why you usin past tense bro?
@@ahren7741 Because, these used to happen way back then?
Remember when people used skins of people with headphones with jackets with one of their eyes closed and keep saying in chat "Need Gf/Bf" lmaO
Repressed the fuck out of that shit
this still exists on mineplex, don't go there, I only play one game that I can't find anywhere else
i remember me and my cousins played on a lot of servers but never chatted and when my aunt saw those people saying “abc for gf”, she tried to ban minecraft
...that’s Roblox’s job now... but we don’t talk about that
PinBall Wizard bold of you to say something so offensive yet so true
i feel like my grandfather is telling me about his past in a rocking chair by a fireplace except his past is minecraft

A beautiful renaissance with a developer team that listens, and nether/village/ocean updates
I've been into Minecraft since I was 10. I am almost 20 now. It's never faded.
YES me too :)
Same, though the game still scares me :(
Same here
Ayy same, turn 20 in 3 months
Same! I got into it when I was 8 and it has never left me. It's weird how it has that effect.
I definitely do not miss the “budder” phase of the game initiated by skydoesminecraft. It’s so nice to be able to call gold “gold” again and not having some 10 year old screaming “BUDDER!!!” At you. It’s pretty great.
Matthew Anderson this unlocked a memory deep within my brain I forgot about budder
I like skydoeseverything
Matthew Anderson I feel attacked
It's nostalgic. Appreciate that at least.
It's still budder within my heart
oh my god the mod spotlights with dantdm and popularmmos are so nostalgic!!
They have made some impact with the community today, in either mod recognition or some other way
I somehow managed to fall into the generation of players that got to see both SkyDoesMinecraft‘s AND DanTDM’s Mod Spotlight videos, even the spotlights for the outrageously silly mods were entertaining simply due to the personality of the CZcamsr.
Those people made mod reviews actually entertaining. I kinda miss that period
I searched for some of Direwolf20's stuff the other day. Made me feel old realizing some of those videos are half a decade old.
And some of them are mods I said "I should try that" and never did, years later.
i hated popularmmos lmao
This is SO nostalgic, I don't know exactly when i started, but it was sometime before 2012, and this reminded me of things I thought I'd long forgotten.
I want to go back tbh
@EengeE who doesn’t?
If you sign into minecraft on the website, it tells you when your account was created :))
@@ChavvyChannel 2013, but I had been playing the free version online and watching videos for much longer
Max Lewis You can check CaptainSparkelz 2, he stream RLcraft and other play throughs.
It seems that a lot of youtubers do their playthroughs by streaming now days, since it’s much more easier and less time consuming.

Hermitcraft
And TFC is that one veteran boomer who still plays minecraft
I second that
Hermitcraft is the spiritual ancestor to mindcrack.
Too bad the whole economy thing is made up. I get that building shops is fun... but they don't actually work in practice. Pretty sure they have a rule to use shops a bunch or something.
@SleepyOwl101 They aren't economically viable. It is unlikely that you will get more benefit out of them compared to the effort put in.
You could do things to tweak that, like modifying the game to support more players. or introduce cheaper (relatively) "bulk production" mechanics, or make non-bulk production more expensive but out of the box, it's easy enough for players to do everything themselves (and has to be since singleplayer exists)... so many do.
@SleepyOwl101 Some people will buy stuff... But rarely very much. And often people make elaborate shops and overstock them.
Also it does not take an hour to get a "few stacks of logs" more thats like 4 minutes.
6:47 the other day i installed minecraft on the iPad for my little sister, when i was playing with her i had the biggest smile on my face, because i was passing on the knowledge i had of something i hold so dearly in my heart
Are you actually Sarc? Three uploads within a month?
within a decade even?
A fan kidnapped him and forced him to make videos a lot more often
@Canal de Iván Seems legit

You think?
Who else tried the Aether portal and didn't realize that it was a mod?
*Also old Minecraft PE and the PE beta*

We are in the Minecraft “enlightenment” the average player is now learning things that used to seem unnecessary like know how to make a nether portal in 20 seconds.
The average multiplayer player knew all that in like 2013.

@@ta1os so, a renaissance?
@@carteradams43 Yeah, rediscovering old knowledge and utilizing it.
when he said "Steve's Gucci long-johns"...
That healed me spiritually.
Don't forget the 'roleplay' trends which weren't actually roleplay but something
(Such as content made from newscapepro, aphmau, etc etc,)
AlletoBall happens on Xbox still
bro, I forgot about NewScapePro! His Undertale roleplay was my shit when I was younger.
I miss the transitionary phase between the Yogcastian Story-Telling phase, and the focus on Modded minecraft. A lot of playthroughs were generated at the time, especially by the Yogscast themselves (The "Tekkit Days," for my fellow Yognaughts), which were effectively just modpack playthroughs, but added an element of forced story in the background to keep things from stagnating.
I wonder from time to time what the next phase will be, what the next "Minecraft Generation" is interested in. I think we might see a move back towards complex builds, but less with a view for aestetics, and more a view for rarity. Especially with Netherite; even having a 3x3x3 base on a survival world made of netherite would be insane, and I feel the natural human tendency for collection will continue to influence this variety of play.
I see some really big shifts coming. The modded world is probably going to have some old mods burn out harder than when 1.10 was immediately succeeded by one update then another. Building continues to trend towards variety, less building up and more out. We get "town style" bases all the time. I've made multiple. Multiplayer is a huge focus and ideal place to play. Minigames probably will have a resurgence again at some point, though the ones that exist now continue to be lucrative on Bedrock (because there are so few large public ones). Vanilla seems to be in again, we seem to be falling off of mega-farms, and I think people are still somewhat hooked on tweaks instead of massive changes. A ton of vanilla+ mods, datapacks, and resourcepacks are being made to tinker with the game without shoving a completely new system on top of it all.
Guy Smith yes, I think mods and addons are more and more going to mainly focus on tweaking vanilla Minecraft rather than changing the game completely. I mean, that’s what everyone wants. People want the game to have more stuff added to it but still look like you’re playing Minecraft.
@@drestonjclaw2839 nowadays people focus on the boring mod packs like rlcraft. What happened to orespawn or twilight forest?
I remember back in the day Direwolf20 made a lot of kickass modded let's plays. Was never a huge fan of him, but when I wanted to watch someone build interesting systems, I knew who to look up.
@@dkskcjfjswwwwwws413 what's so boring about RLcraft? I got so sick of Orespawn by the end of its life cycle

seekerblue1 you sir have been awarded best comment of the comment section
Why do you not like that statement? It's obviously true that both platforms are connected. I mean, you are watching a CZcams video about MINECRAFT. Without youtube popularizing Minecraft, it probably wouldn't be as much of a big thing as it is today. The same thing happened with undertale and fnaf. If Markiplier didn't make that video of him playing fnaf, it almost certainly wouldn't have gotten to where it got to. The same is with Minecraft. CZcams is it's best friend, and they do 100% go hand in hand.

Honestly, my favourite era for Minecraft was the modded scene, when modded servers rivaled your typical Spigot/CraftBukkit servers in playerbase sizes. I miss that, personally.
Vanilla server player size has ballooned while modded servers have stagnated. It's weird tbh, since there's quite a healthy modding scene.
@@nyahnyahson523 Yeah, which really sucks. Now the only modded servers I see run really old packs, nothing modern
@@cammiescorner Hmm... that is weird, huh. I can't imagine it'll be too long until there's an uptick in that scene, with a revitalization of modding caused by a second wave of children grown adults.
@@nyahnyahson523 Eh we can hope. I'm not expecting too much though.

That old era where Yogscast was in their height was probably my favorite. I dunno, maybe it was just me, but back then Minecraft really had this kinda of wild west sort of vibe. Like everything was mysterious and untamed, but maybe that had more to do with my unfamiliarity with the game mechanics at the time. I've also personally been enjoying the more memey era over the last couple of years. It really seems to have taken away a lot of the stigma that was associated with the game I've always loved.

6:45 or they get bullied into not playing it anymore. That happened a few times
I remember it got to a point where the only people I could find in servers were children who wanted to make Minecraft videos.
I simply stopped playing and it began to get noticed in my school. Slowly but gradually Minecraft was turned from a cool game with a wonderful community into just another trend that got toxic due to time.
Happily though, I recently began playing thanks to my Dad's interest in the game. He set up a server and frequently plays it with my sister, me or my brother.
That happened to me, albeit not very harshly.
least favorite trend is the current one with "cute uwu e-girl/e-boy" skins
honestly, girl minecraft skins have been the exact same template since ~2011. the only consistent exceptions are ones based on existing characters. it's gotten better but you cannot go to skindex without seeing 15 of the exact same template on one page
Me too, which is probably why I don't like when a Minecraft CZcamsr changes their old skin to something like that...

Damn, I've experienced pretty much every stage... I quit for a while during the "Kid friendly" stage though.
I can second that
Same though
Back then: my browser history full of Yogscast.
Now: nvm..
I'm sure many of us are guilty as well.
My browser history is still full of the Yogscast.
Minecraft has achieved something that I have never seen in other games before: A completely blank canvas.
All other games still have "lines" that you need to draw into, so when CZcamsrs play other games, yes it's different, but it all looks the same, just with a different commentator. Minecraft on the other hand allows CZcamsrs to incorporate their personality into the game almost flawlessly. That is why every generation always gets renewed not because of the "canvas" (Minecraft) that gets renewed but a new style of "painting". If you look at all of the big Minecraft CZcamsrs, you'll see almost all of them have stumbled upon this.
I myself am about to start something new. And I am ecstatic to see where it will go! Let's see if my theory holds water :)
Good point! With linear, narrative-driven games, I usually only watch one 'Tuber's playthrough. That way I can experience the story even if I'm not interested in actually playing it. But once I've seen it, there's nothing left to see. Of course not all games are linear like that, and some types of games can offer many different ways to play. Minecraft just takes that creative freedom and open-endedness further than almost anything else, enabling the diversity of experiences we see and play today.
The Resurgence phase was my least favorite one. I never quit the game when it went into the phase of it being a baby game, but the resurgence phase was annoying and full of circlejerks

Say it again for the people in the back!
I feel on the contrary. Minecraft during its dark age when it was regarded as a kids game, we were persecuted for playing MC, we were alone and voicing our opinions on the game had to be discrete. Moreover, the fanbase felt dwindling and the game dying. The resurgence phase lifted the game back to relevancy and made us in the green zone. With its old players back in Minecraft, and the game thrusting forth towards its second golden age is amazing. I say that the resurgence phase is the renaissance era to the game, and certainly is a great miracle to have happened.
I would consider myself an "old school" minecrafter. I've been playing since 1.2.5 and I still find myself coming back to play.

Funny, I started on 1.2.5 as well! Such magical memories. 😌
Imagine coming back to minecraft after being absent for a couple of years and not knowing why the fuck there are dolphins following you. Cant relate.
Joke
I'm not really old or new. I started in 1.4.7 and I remember the April Fools prank in 2014 (villagers). I think I had been playing for several months at that time.
I've been around since beta 1.6, still playing. The longevity of this game is honestly crazy. Especially with the super active modding community.
I remember when everyone had headphones and a mic on their skin
and the emo hair covering one eye
and the hoodie with one string longer than the other
and the same exact facial expression every single time
my friend still use that kind of skin
@@patrickharleyofficial the hoodie string is good, i like it

God I remember watching good times with scar in 2012 when he was building his tree farm and thinking so highly of his style of play and him as a person. I still watch his content not gonna lie its really good
I think you should've mentioned when the trend of hacking / mainly greifing was big. Talking about the time of
TeamAvolition and people like iCanHasGreif
Stampy was a huge part of my life and influenced me still to this day. It makes me sad to know that he barely brings in views anymore, but the truth is, we grew up. Us who grew up on stampy are teens/young adults or even adults now. I hope he’s doing well, because he made me who I am today.
I watched him as a toddler and kinda got detached by a lot
"I feel it in my veins, going back for my remains"
"Don't get too close, you'll probably die"
"I use to rule the world, chunks would load when i gave the word"
"To take back the night"
"And i'm pretty sure theres a big creeper right there"
"I don't know about you, but I'm making mushroom stew"
"I'm not teamin, I'm not teamin, you should've learned how to play"
If you can sing these with their correct song right off the bat when reading this, you are an OG minecraft player.
feeling old right about *NOW*
SO WE BACK IN THE MINES
funny that i never heard most of those songs because at that time i got disconnected from minecraft community, as community i was interacting with disbanded in 2012, 2012 was truly end of my minecraft world
A month ago when he posted a video:
*Its been 84 years*
Today:

I still watch the Yogscast, in my opinion, the stuff they're doing now is still great if not more entertaining than their old Minecraft stuff!
Brook Davis I miss the role play
The yogscast have a great system going. They’re so large they can let their constituencies do almost anything they want. You can find a little bit of everything, except SoI.

[Nobody liked that]
In the 2010s, people used to watch CaptainSparklez.
In the 2020s, people will have used to watch Ninja.
Ha! Not me
The cognitive dissonance is strong with this comment
Ah I don’t like that mate
Little wankers
I still watch CaptainSparklez tbh, but usually not the minecraft videos. He usually doesnt have a facecam in his minecraft videos but he does in his reddit ones. Hes hot so i keep watching
So?
@@sawyer3818 lol
I started becoming involved in minecraft during the mod showcase era - to be completely honestly, I completely forgot about those until you mentioned it. Definitely makes me feel nostalgic. Also, I definitely fit the bill of “picked it up as a kid, super into it for a few years, and then other parts of life took over.” But, i’m back and more appreciative of the game than ever before!
ETHO yes! Im so glad you mentioned him!
You mean Ergo? For sure my favorite content creator.

It's becoming obvious that Sarc's been replaced by a doppelganger. Three videos in the same epoch? Madness.
e p o c h
Okay but jokes aside those three baby villagers staring at the bee and ignoring the parrot was surprisingly adorable.
For me the biggest shift I've noticed over the years that wasn't some mere trend kicked off by some CZcamsr that usually only lasted a year has been the dismissal there for a while of the technical community by the wider community and then the technical community becoming more and more a key part of the scene. I remember a time when even a basic iron farm was enough to get banned form some servers , mostly as an early adopter of a more technical style of playing I was on the receiving end more than once.
Which I think is part of what lead to the technical community kind of disappearing there for a while either into mostly playing single player or on dedicated technical servers, some servers I would argue just slowly drifted into being technical servers from them having older and longer term players. But now that it's became such a core part of the game for so many I've noticed that the a lot of the technical survival players that do CZcams have seen massive surges in subscriber count the last year or two.
6:35, That got depressing.
I always love how Sarc presents his videos to us, a very cinematic type deal as if he's positioning a camera irl but he gets those crisp zoom pan slow and beautifully framed shots in game and it's nice to see something new and different. as opposed to a character just standing there.
My favorite time in Minecraft history is when everyone was making modded single player lets plays. Maybe I just have a lot of nostalgia for that time but I loved that era
everyone: starts playing in 2010/2011, and plays a ton until 2014/2015, then rediscovers it in 2019/2020
me: starts playing in 2012/2013, and just continues playing for years, not even noticing the fanbase shirking around me, until 2019, when Minecraft blew up again
you in that modding era like i was (and still am) for mc has like 2 existing eras the fergotten modded days back in 1.12 and the vinnila standards
Exactly
These are probably my favourite Minecraft videos, but they're _so quiet_ with every setting at max, they're a bit under my normal volume. Please could you make them a bit louder?
Irk i turn my volume up to listen an then this extremely loud ad starts to play from some wizkidhero
I think you should get better headphones or something
@@UnfunnyFigs no it's with me too and my phone is new and all
For me too, I hear it fine in a really quiet room. But any other slight sound, and suddenly I can't hear these video even at max volume
This is off topic, but where tf is the snapshot?
I think it's pretty crazy that I've been playing Minecraft half of my life 8 years... like damn
I haven't been playing for that long, but I HAVE been watching minecraft content for that long.
this game has come a long way since 2012 but it still feels the same just different
sarc: you must've known yogacast when entering the community.
Me: i didn't speak English at the time i was playing minecraft!
Me! So many people are like "youtuberxyz? Nostalgia! Love their minecraft videos,they where my childhood"
*Confused German noises*
I joined minecraft in my tween years, and i find it the perfect point for both enduring interest in the game, but also stimulating nostalgia
Wow... Someone actually mentioned mindcrack... It's been a long time
I'm happy to see the Etho mention B)

at this point someone should mod a new cave update in a way that’s something mojang would actually do
AsianHalfSquat has made 2 videos similar to that, he listed out cool mods that make caves way better
Logan there’s a cave biome datapack that works in the 1.15 and the current 1.16 snapshot and it’s cool as fuck
already done, and honestly i don't want a cave update.. more diverse caves? = filled up inventories.
it's like when they added the other types of rock but worse
@@knyt0 Definitely not worse because 2/3 stones they added sucked. New gems or ores would have uses.
YUNG's Better Caves should be enough tbh
SimplySarc's thumbnails are always so extremely professional. Incredible
When he mentioned the Minecraft parodies I immediately had a flashback of that horrible parody where the girl starts twerking for no apparent reason while her block legs and body phase thru each other
Those were dark days.
That one haunts me to this day
I remember the mod spotlight days very fondly, watching hours of mod playthroughs and reviews.
I've been playing the Enigmatica 2 Expert modpack the last couple weeks, and I am beyond words at how far the modding community has come since the OG Tekkit days.
Sure, IndustrialCraft 2 is still here, but TMI and NEI are both gone, replaced with JEI.
Buildcraft pipes and quarry are gone, replaced with Thermal Expansion itemducts and the Digital Miner or Ender Quarry.
Redpower came and went, got remade from scratch, then went again.
The introduction of the oredictionary and standardisations changed modpack gameplay entirely.
Equivalent Exchange 2 was the backbone of Tekkit playthroughs, then vanished entirely after EE3.
In my original tekkit base, the redpower panels didn't hide the buildcraft pipes under my floor. Now the cable facades work on anything.
I remember waiting over a week for the Yogcast Voltz episode 'The Bomb' to come out, knowing full well what Red Matter explosives did.
I watched so much Direwolf20 back in the day, I had the link to his channel on the home screen of my iPod Touch because I didn't have a youtube channel yet. The man has a son now, a few years old or so, still making the exact same style of video he made so many years ago.
I guess this is what nostagia feels like
Sorry for the long comment, feeling oddly emotional today
