In his search for theories, matpat forgets geothermal energy exists.
Yeah. Plus, if the Nether is surrounded by celestial bodies, those would have an effect on it with their gravitational pull, thus keeping its liquid parts liquid.
And I'm pretty sure there are deep sea plants that are so sensitive to light that they can use infrared light to perform photosynthesis.

Theory about Steve, he was the
one ancient builder who actually managed to harness the power of death and life, which is why he always respawns after death, never losing his soul, and is destined to go from parallel universe to parallel universe freeing his own people from the end over and over again.
Good theory, may I add onto it? Maybe Steve is this chosen one, sort of like a savior to the ancient builders from the higher being they worship, hence forth why he can never die, as well as all of his superhuman strength and endurance and wisdom, he is human 2.0
@@squidsquid9992 Adding on to the strength and wisdom bit, he can carry over 2,000 kilos on his person and learns to do things he has never done before almost instantly.
Steve legit punches down trees, he’s def a demi-god of sorts
@@squidsquid9992 yours too
@@etholus1000 The dude is more than a demigod; he has an inventory of 4 x 9, plus an offhand inventory slot. In each inventory slot, he can hold up to a maximum of 64 units of a given item (with certain exclusions). Each block in Minecraft is a cubic meter. This means Steve can somehow manage to carry 2304 cubic meters on him at any given moment and not be encumbered. Not to mention, the guy can cure any illness with a glass of milk. His immune system is phenomenal.
That fits with soul speed. The boots draw the souls in as energy, and it makes them move fast
Also explains why there's souls that appear when you move across soul sand w the enchant
"The nether is full of an energy source"
Lava? You mean the pools of lava everywhere that vent heat energy nonstop?
"Souls."
Oh okay.
thank god someone else thought this
Yeah, I thought he was gonna talk about the nether being full microorganisms and the likes such as those that are around underwater vents on Earth .
Lava cools REALLY REALLY quickly though if there isn't new energy being put in.
So Lava wouldn't be a renewable energy source. Something should be keeping that Lava hot.
@@metazoxan2 If it's adjacent to a larger mass of lava, like the core of the earth, it could be a very long term proposition ....
@@metazoxan2 Yeah, in real life, but in minecraft lava just is. So new theory...how does the lava of the Nether remain constantly hot and flowing?

What about Ghasts? I’ve heard that they might’ve been taken from the Overworld and trapped in the Nether, and I was curious about if they have a backstory as well!
Yeah that theory stems from some achievement for getting the ghast into the OW, it's something along the lines of "return a ghast back to the OW"
Yeah, MatPat should do a theory on that. Curious how they also look like ghosts, and how "ghastly" literally means, "terrifying or supernatural".
Not sure which but I think one the Minecraft books has it’s insides and it’s a machine. This added to the achievement “ RETURN a ghast to the overworld” shows that was made by builders but was too dangerous so they locked them to the nether. I think that ghasts were neutral mobs but now that they’re in the nether they are in distress and want to go home to the overworld.

Fun fact: Minecraft started out as “Cave Game.” The name was soon changed to Minecraft: Order of the Stone, and, ultimately, just Minecraft.
I knew that
@@callistoarmy5576no one cares about you bot
@Gff G spam
“order of the stone” reminds me of minecraft story mode
And the group of Minecrafters in Telltale's game were called the Order of the Stone! Nice job on that one Telltale
The beginning reminded me of how awesome the D&D Underdark would be in Minecraft. Also, there are literally oceans of evidence (in the form of lava in the Nether) that imply there is enough geothermal energy to keep all that lava really hot. And it's possible that the geothermal power is what keeps the Netherblocks (Syblocks but in the Nether) floating. In addition, my friend and I came up with the "terraforming" idea a while ago with an important supplement being new species of fungus based on the sculk stuff... Not just that but many quartz colorations (green, pink, yellow) are caused by iron impurities. With nether quartz appearing to be slightly pink when in nether quartz ore, it's safe to say that there are at least trace amounts of iron wherever you find nether quartz. Also, you find skeletons and fossils in the soul sand valleys... who's to say the area isn't made of fossilized fungi and decaying animal meat from an ancient era? That would make it quite healthy, and maybe the ancient fungus had caps resembling wailing faces. That would scare some creatures away!
And MATPAT YOU FORGOT TO SAY "BUT THAT'S JUST A THEORY"
"NetherBlocks"? So, like thermal updrafts?
This sort of explains the whole update to begin with. At first the nether was empty with just lava but after the portal was made and the builders died, their souls began to start the circle of life in the nether witch eventually made forest and stuff.
MatPat: The Nether is chalk full of an abundant energy source
Me: Geothermal energy and chemosynthetic bacteria
MatPat: Souls
Me: (o.o)
I can't believe he thought of souls before he thought of geothermal 😭
sulfur appears in volcanic environments, LIKE THE WHOLE NETHER
@@TheCopelandr In his defence, the entire realm is covered in the faces of the damned. But yeah he should have considered other options, espeically as Soul Power doesn't explain how the Nether existed BEFORE the builders showed up.
What has game theory become
@@TheCopelandr Thing is though, how the hell would you harness that geothermal energy?
Geothermal plants use a ton of heat, sure, but in order for that to be converted to USEFUL energy it needs to heat something ELSE.
In most plants that's water but that's obviously a no-go in the Nether.
Fossil fuels don't work either since they don't exist in the Nether.
The only option is biomass, but even then that's basically the more science-based angle of the soul energy anyway.
So we'd just loop back to souls.
MatPat: "...nutrients get used in an inefficient way."
Austin a DAY prior: "Steve uses the nutrients in food with perfect efficiency."
Two ways both can be true:
1. Steve/Alex can use energy at high efficiency. However, they cannot retain any of it. i.e. once fully grown, their Feed Ratio becomes *infinite.* No matter how much they eat, no usable energy can be absorbed from them. (Also, if they don't eat, their energy drops to zero as they swiftly starve...)
2. Stevelex is a rare/unique entity. Everything else obeys entropy (or some equivalent principle.)
The above options probably aren't mutually exclusive.
@@misanthropichumanist4782 My intent in my comment was to point out the coincidence that both MatPat and Austin would make videos within one day of each other about the very same idea of Steve and Alex eating
@@misanthropichumanist4782 We know they are. They’re controlled by the player. Because of the End poem, we know that they’re canon, since the beings which ARE canon speak to the player. By extension, you are canon. It might be like Undertale/Deltarune where the player is actually the SOUL, and the body (the Player entity) and the soul exist separately. That’s why you can go into third person mode and why you can still see after you die.
This is an underdeveloped idea and someone needs to take it to Reddit because I’m too lazy to.

Matpat ascribed irl biology to steve
Game theory: the theory of the illagers testing and experimenting on villagers and the zombies under igloos connection. Igloos are definitely isolated, and I feel like they eventually had enough outcasts they band together to start their own cult in the mansion, trying to convert villagers with the use of mind control with the red mushrooms they are growing and then implanting the lapis after.

Can you do a Game Theory on the phantoms that attack you when you don’t sleep for too long? In my mind they are both the coolest & creepiest looking enemies in Minecraft plus I’m very curious about how they “exist.”
Probably like lucid dreaming or hallucinations from not being able to sleep for a long time.
Oh yeah? Then how can you farm items from them?
@@themidnightotaku22 my personal theory is that they are shapeless inter dimensional beings or demon that feed on your hallucinations the reason I think they are other dimensional is that loot they drop can only be used to repair elytra which is a other dimensional object so clearly they are not from the overworld the way they spawn when you lose sleep in my personal headcanon is that they don't have actual physical form but the moment Steve start hallucinating cause of sleep lost they start feeding of him and manifest physical body in the form of Steve hallucinations and start physical attacking him
@@themidnightotaku22 kinda like reverse Freddy Krueger

Can we get a mini theory about the fact that hoglins are scared of the warped fungus?
Yes!
It likely has to do with the fact that the warped forest was NOT created by some ancient builders for a safe haven but instead is a crimson forest that has been changed do the side effects of the introduction of non-native enderman.
@@onebilliontacos3405 it's more likely that warped forests were created artificialy, and the crimson forests are a natural evolution of the warped forests, likely effected by the nature of the nether. The hoglins only recognize the more natur-alized version of the forests, therefore they are afraid of the unnatural ones.
Could we also add to taht mini theory by adding a segment about how the piglins dance when they kill a hoglin?
@@theblizardblitz2396 that’d be sick
I just realized he glanced over the fact (on basically every episode about souls) that dying to splash potion equate into "killed by magic" and most potion recipes require the nether wart made on soul sand really just keeps suggesting souls really are a source of power.

The Reason Minecraft never dies is because it absorbs the soul of all the games that die
"They get energy from souls" huh I would have thought it might be something like, you know, the abundance of geothermal energy as the Nether is literally filled with oceans of lava
I 100% agree and just posted a similar comment.
But Geothermal energy still comes from the sun.
It's not like the inner planet generated that energy it's just trapped below the Earth's surface.
@@metazoxan2
But as we don't know where the Nether is technically, the lava of the Nether could be heated by some other method, such as fusion thus giving it a continual source of heat in the same method as the sun does for plants.
@@metazoxan2 yes it is, radioactivs decay of minerals, along with the fluid friction in the mantle. Otherwise, the surface would be hot and the core would be cold.
@@Larper64 Also all the energy "lost" by inefficiencies has to go somewhere, you can't just "lose" energy. It becomes heat. Perhaps there's some system that's recycling that heat.
I still think of the Nether being under the overworld, but even if it was, it's still completely secluded by unbreakable bedrock. Even if somehow, something gets through, above is just deepslate, which can easily be assumed is harder than stone since it takes much longer to break. So, there's probably no practical way to have energy and nutrients coming in from the overworld. No idea if that's how that works, but it's just a thought.

Matpat be like dora the Explorer saying "where is the energy" while surrounded on all sides by lava
Souls make more sense. But i also think lava gives energy.
Lava is molted stone. When Earth formed, a lot of Suns energy and later asteroid impacts melted the minerals creating the liquid that tectonic plates float on. Lava and magma contain a lot of energy but it is not renewable. Evolution of life in Nether is a mystery anyhow. What lifeforms are native? What are alive in the first plase? Maybe ghast, blazes, magmacubes are natives and don't eat anything while all fungi and rest of the mobs originate from Overworld and ancient builders experiments.
@@EllenL11 I don’t think hoglins and piglins were caused by experiments, but was introduced and adapted to their environment so much that they lost immunity to overworld diseases
There are a lot of source of energy in the Nether, but only souls as a source of energy is interesting, everything else make uninteresting theory
@@eclecticsoffy With that logic, you could be saying life in the over-world is powered by the end because its a more interesting theory
At this point, Mat is creating the canonical lore for this game. Everything so far has been piecing together perfectly.
Hi I just want to propose this theory idea on a game called Rimworld, its mostly sandbox but there were a few bits of "lore" like the Insect War or where the mechanoids came from or the reason on why the ship crashed, Im a HUGE fan of your videos at a young age and even until now, keep up the good work and do what you love best Mat
Right after Young MatPat explains that it is impossible to pour water in the nether, he then goes on to say that the warped forest was created with the use of water itself.
correct!
"We cannot pour water in the nether. Anyways, the ancient builders poured water in the nether."

@@jakespacepiratee3740 The temperature has probably vastly increased since the time when the builders first arrived. Thousands of years relatively. In the beginning, the water probably rapidly heated rather than instantly vaporizing and it was in liquid form long enough to be able to irrigate the forests. Now, after thousands of years of the lava releasing more and more heat energy, the Nether has exponentially increased in temperature.
That's the only explanation I can have for it.
@@Godly_Spartan Only problem with that is: if it's so hot that water instantly vaporizes because of heat, how does Steve survive for any length of time in the nether?

Giant skeletons of dead creatures and… well regular skeletons so the soul sand valley somewhat acts like the nether’s sun

I agree but why would they leave the overworld? jk I already watched that theory
I don’t fully agree with the Enderman ancestor theory because the book The End confirms that they weren’t created by the same Minecraft God that created humans, Lord Order (humans) and Lord Chaos (enderman)
@@TazJustTaz And you're quite sure that book is canon to the game lore?
Minecraft Story Mode explains why the Nether travels the player more blocks because of the world beneath the bedrock which could relate to us below as Steve and Alex's head are found in the game as targets for the admins games oddly enough. We then find no signs of illagers yet and according to Matpat's theory it suggests that mcsm took place before the events in Minecraft Legends with playing of gods, trimmed armors, portals, experimentation. Just lore I gathered hope this helps!
MATPAT! Here's a crazy theory for ya on the origins of skeletons. Your zombie disease video makes sense, but doesn't explain the skeletons. No disease is going to keep a pile of bones floating around. You'd need magic to do that. Here's a quote from the Mobestiary, " Some have proposed that skeletons are ancient adventurers raised from death by an evil sorcerer." In the game Minecraft Dungeons there is a group of ancient necromancers who live in a desert temple. They have blue glowing eyes (the color of souls) and when they summon skeletons, you can see small blue souls float away from the summoning area. They even shoot soul fire blasts! But why are they themselves undead? Maybe because when they (or some other humans) summoned the wither, they noticed that it doesn't attack undead things, and they turned themselves undead to protect themselves. I hope you read this!
I'm just confused as to why lava heat energy wasn't even mentioned
mate, he ignored literally every result on google images to say that the Warden is filled with souls and not an enderpearl; (MC) he also implied that RADAR doesn't use light; (WW) and ignored the possibility that souls themselves may be an energy positive system.(MC again) Long story short, he didn't mention it because it would mean he can't make a theory on it and at this point thats pretty much all he cares about. Its a cynical view but willful ignorance is the only possible way to explain how he managed to get an image of a damaged warden with a fractured ender pearl while completely and utterly ignoring literally every other image showing an intact ender pearl in the warden's chest.
Right? There's entire ecosystems based on geothermal energy. The nether could easily sustain itself off micro-organisms that convert heat to chemical energy, then larger plants would probably be able to either live in symbiosis or thrive off the biomass produced by them.
I mean, why not both? Geothermal energy converting microorganisms and soul eating fungi aren't excludent theories on the Nether
I wonder could the lava emit enough light that they could live off it as well as geothermal
its literally a matpat theory you should never take it seriously

Hi Matt! I have a theory to propose.
What if... The player got infected with a parasite that made the player go insane, the player gained powers to fly and manifest items on demand (now known as creative mode).
He saw his species as evil and planned to kill them all (explains abandoned structures), the others fled in to the end, hoping for safety, they built battle ships with creatures that lift things only to destroy them, but they were found.
They got punished, they transormed in to ugly, tall creatures that were once them (now known as endermen). The player made a dragon to keep the prisoners there and locked the portal, but now the parasite was meeting the end of it's life. The parasite made sure this player won't see the structures of his kind, The parasite destroyed every structure there was, but before he could finish the job...
You wake up, in a new world, having lost your memory, your language, your people, you try to make sense of what was happening, you only remember the trip to the underworld before fading and going black. You make tools, wandering around the world, seeing the villages occupied by a less advance species, but some structures looking familiar too you.
You see monsters, seeking revenge from their creator, attacking you with all their might, they look like you, still wearing the armour they had before you cursed them to travel the world with one goal, kill the player.
As you advance, you notice the fortress, a labyrinth you made to keep you from reuniting what's left of your kind. You put the final keys in place, destroying the spawner filled with worms that suck your health out of you... You enter..
The rest it up to you
Thank you
MatPat needs to go back and look at this episode and consider some of the facts with regards to his Wall-E cannibalism theory. Like around 5:00, where he talks about “burning calories” and the fact that you need to intake energy from somewhere and convert it to calories, or it will simply deplete. Probably at a faster rate than anticipated.
I think the whole "Nether being a separate dimension" thing is because Doom depicted hell as a dimension that can't be accessed on Earth, rather being accessed by an ancient portal on Deimos, and most Minecraft nerds (like me) already know that Notch, while creating Minecraft, had Doom as the main inspiration.
The Nether is powered by Argent lul
no, Notch's main inspiration was "infiniminer clone"

I would’ve thought that the Nether’s ecosystem draws energy from the endless lava ocean because it’s hot.
That's exactly what I was wondering. I mean, while it wouldn't have as much energy as the sun, lava has to have a decent amount of energy to it, right?
Yeah that felt like a more natural connection to what is there than souls, especially since in game the areas with a direct connection to souls (soulsand valleys) appear to be the most arid and least habitable areas for life in the nether.
You are absolutely right. There are a few ecosystems even here on earth that do not rely on the sun. I think the geothermal activity of the nether paired with plants that can turn heat energy into a form of glucose is much more likely than plants that turn solos into glucose.
@@pizzac00l yeah. I also feel like lava is the main energy source for the native life in the Nether, before anything came in. Then, when soul sand and soul soil became more prevalent due to an influx of invaders, the extinction of the behemoths implied to have once existed, or both, certain life forms like the Nether wart, a species likely derived from the crimson fungus, evolved to tap into the soul energy.
@Krk Jk shut up
That line from the Muse song finally makes sense now: “In an isolated system, entropy will always increase”
So the Ancient Builders
also had some Variant of Water that
can be used in the Nether?
Hey, thats another cool feature that we
will literally never see because Mojang
wont explore anything mentioned
in Minecraft-Theorys whatsoever.
@@slevinchannel7589 no. The point was that instead of water they used souls to warp the land and seed life

Thanks for telling me...
...I wont take my criticism of Mojang back though. They're wasting this rich Lore-full Game.

Nice name
I’m stuck in Minecraft lore/deep dive fact vids these are so addicting I don’t even play this game I love these vids either way
This is my theory about how steve (the player) was created. Steve was created by the evoker and illagers because they have the type of wool that steve has on him, and they can control life and death so they were trying to create an intelligent species but they kept making zombies that's why zombies have the same clothes as us so they finally created the player. The reason why the player can respawn is that the player has a stronger totem of undying that can't be destroyed. Idk how he has it on him but he does. (I did see the video that Wifies created about this, I just wanted to make a new one similar theory)

About half way through I'd forgotten the premise of the episode and thought he was about to note all the hot and bright lava in the nether as a source of energy
czcams.com/video/K5pz5g8rlw0/video.html
Yeah, he completely forgot geothermal energy exists
Why are these theories always so good?!
Even withou souls, the nether could be a sustainable echosystem. Think about it. The nether is a closed system, witch means that while there is no energy entering the system, there is no energy leaving the system. It may take other forms, but thoses other forms remain just as usable. E.X. some extremophiles at the bottom of oceans rely on heat alone.
Yes but entropy.
Thank you MatPat for my daily dose of 5am dad jokes 😂
Yo :D
can't they get energy by absorbing heat? I mean most nether mobs are immune to it
YES ONE OF MY FAVORITE CZcamsRS ON MY FAVORITE CZcamsRS CHANNEL!!!!!
Lol sandwich man
@@8829patrickcox8829 you have a point, maybe that's why the strider looks so different when it's out of lava, because it's not getting any energy from the lava.
game theory: *talks about how souls are the nether energy source*
me, screaming: *GEO-THERMAL*
thank god someone else thought this
SAMEEEE
Near the lava oceans, the soil is probably chalk full of thermophilic bacteria thats drawing energy from heat. Various other microscopic organisms eat those, like how it works in the sea, and mushrooms might be able to grow off of those.
@@tabimechner2691 that's literally exactly what I was thinking throughout the whole video. Thanks for putting it to words
@@tabimechner2691 i was thinking perhaps magma cubes assist in the transfer of energy
I was even thinking "Yes the nether does not have sunlight sure. But... Wouldnt the abundance of lava, which glows brightly in the nether all over, produce photons that could be used for photosynthesis. Albeit less, but still there
could you do a episode on the ice biome, tiaga biome, jungle biome, and snow biome? i havent seen a video on that yet.
This is easily one of my fave theories

The idea of the nether being a closed system means it never looses energy as energy can neither be created nor destroyed and the bedrock marks the edge of reality as the nether is a separate dimension so no energy leaves none enters keeping it stable. While I agree souls may be a thing crucial to the nether the energy never changes as it’s never destroyed
I think it makes more sense that the Nether is under the world of Minecraft, because when you mine in the overword below -60 you hit bedrock, and in Nether when you mine above, you will hit bedrock, which tells you that both places are connected in the same planet.
This also explains how the Nether has energy, because the core of a planet produces it own energy, that's why the Nether is hot

Also can you make a theory about the mob spanner’s because that might be about the pillagers experiments
This theory about the Nether being the Underworld actually also fits in with the things inside: SOUL sand, wither SKELETONS, and also Ghasts look like ghosts. And the Wither is technically an embodiment of Hades.
Next thing we know, the end dragon is the last of her species protecting her egg
Hell that actually might become an actual theory
Well yes. This is fact. HOW DARE YOU TRY AND KILL MY DRAGON. I DONT CARE IF YOU CANT LEAVE WITHOUT KILLING HERE
@@annakaconnelly2807 The Dragon can be reincarnated, so stop screaming.
Actually, that really does make sense and I've thought that before. That might also be why the Ender Dragon attacked the ancient builders when they first arrived; she thought they were a threat to her unborn child. Also, considering that you can only leave the end after defeating the dragon, she might've held some sort of power over the portal that vanished once she was killed by Steve/Alex. It's the same thing with the other mini-portals that lead to other parts of the end. (The endermen already in the other parts of the end might've been transported there by the dragon, or just spawned there after going through the portal in the overworld. (They couldn't have teleported because they weren't endermen yet and built cities and ships there before they evolved.)) The reason the dragon doesn't want the builders to leave is because she's worried they'll steal her egg and leave with it. (This is just my theory on the whole subject.)
