good job making it to the bottom i'm so happy for you - Hry
Nice video, I have some notes on the factual content though and some additional context that could explain some things.
First off, the Aether, and its sequel Aether II, have historically been self hosted by our team via our own launchers or in the olden days via a mediafire host. So the downloads numbers on Curseforge only represent a small portion of the mod's total downloads over the years, only really reflecting the downloads in recent times when the mod's audience was mostly at its absolute smallest (that's changing now as we're getting the Aether on modern versions and getting modpack inclusion again but yeah) So that 15 million number is on the low low LOW end of the total downloads Aether 1 has had in its 12 year lifespan.
Aether II also went through two distinct iterations, with the transition between them and experiments within being handled quite poorly, so it's worth noting that the versions people have played will differ depending on when they played them. The original alpha builds (titled Genesis of the Void) were more of a multiplayer remake of Aether 1, but we as a team struggled to get all the content ported and reworked with that in mind so it was eventually scrapped in favour of having Aether 1 be ported without changes and Aether II was restarted as more of a full on sequel. This rework, which is titled the Highlands Update, from 1.10-1.12 was full of design experiments and "game within a game" ideas from Brandon and the rest of the team that clashed heavily with the vibe of the original mod and vanilla game and largely drove players away. Brandon's involvement in this part of the project was quite turbulent and involved a lot of internal issues and technical problems which we as a team struggled to resolve. Unfortunately Brandon left mid-development to join Mojang which left Aether II, and Orbis (a set of technologies the mod was inherently interwoven with) in a sort of unsalvageable state that has led to the team's decision, following Brandon's departure, to restart Aether II following the successful rewrite/remaster of the original Aether mod on 1.19+
Aether II issues aside, Brandon remains one of the most inspiring and fundamentally talented designers in the Minecraft space, I consider him my mentor and a close friend. His influence on Minecraft and the modding community as a whole has been far more wide-reaching and positive than I think anyone really realises. And I'm incredibly proud of where his career has taken him even after his departure from my team. I greatly enjoyed catching up with him recently after the 1.21 announcement, and I really think people underestimate just how awesome the design concepts Mojang is working with are going forward, I think 1.21 is going to be an absolutely crazy start to a new era of Minecraft content.
So yeah I hope this extra info and context around the Aether's development is useful!
~ Oz Payn - Project Lead and Creative Director at The Aether Team
I wish I had exact total download numbers from our self-hosted days but unfortunately we had a history of losing a lot of that analytical data over the years. Sadness

Building a shrine to Brandon and chanting "All hail the Aether Mod" for 8 minutes isn't a documentary, SkyBoi
LMAOOO
I would agree if I wasn't laughing
all hail brandon!!
I want candy corn

While Brandon was undoubtedly a great addition to the Mojang team I hope the community doesn't start to think that everything good comes from him. There's plenty of other talented people who also contribute to the updates even if they don't talk about it publicly as much as Brandon does.
It would be pretty narrow minded to think that, but good point.
theres a lot of useless positions at mojang though, most of the work an the actual game comes from a handful of people
correct. most work on the trash spin offs that are money grabbers, which is why i have no respect for them. i miss notch and his passion project....@@tobywessling1282

Petition for this guy to talk about Minecraft but videos and where they are now
YES PLEASE LOL
Hi you seem like u are a rizz God
I need your help
@@Soysantii777 bro is 5 years old 😂
@@w_zizoTrue since hé is a robloxian.
I never could've guessed that the creator of the Warden _and_ the creator of the Aether mod are one and the same!! I actually somehow knew that the Mojang animators really quickly improved their animation skills, but I thought it was because they were learning more, not that they hired the freakin' _creator_ of the Aether mod!!
i thought that /tick in 1.21 and autocrafter were there becuase theres demands and coincidentally Carpet mod main devs Gnembon is Hired
but i never think that almost all 1.19 and exploration part of 1.21 were there because mojang agrees and Kingbdogz too
yeap, and he is doing whole work for this lazy studio
thats what passion gets you. mojang is full of money grabbers, no passion. i miss notch and his passion project....@@cyber_robot889
@@cyber_robot889 That’s such a narrow minded thing to say. There are tons of other talented people working at Mojang who love what they do and put in hard work. They play a huge role in the development of Minecraft too and their work shouldn’t be overshadowed by Kingbdogz’s.
Mojang has a team of animators . I dont think its kingbdogz’ job to animate
Great editing on this video, man!
Wow no @

Report him,he botting his channel

Botted reply. Nobody cares.

Hi crafty
Yo crafty
Holy shit this video is so well crafted. Story telling keeps me on the edge the whole time and the jokes land perfectly. Keep it up man one of the best minecraft essays I've seen
This is really peaking into the view of Mojang which is refreshing too see. Also LOVE THE EDITING
I adore your energy, dude. Seriously! I can hear the genuine passion in your voice when you talk about stuff, and it makes me smile. Keep being you!
Being crazy creative AND talented in coding is a blessing straight from the gods
Indeed but also somewhat of a curse having all those ideas floating around constantly
3:00 dawg 💀
bros gonna have a triple boss “fight”
Really enjoyed the Video
the Editing is insane
insane editing skills, good humor, nice video. Definitely subscribing.
the youtuber skyboi so good, mojang hired him
NO WAYYYY TYY
@@skyboimc omg no way lol you are my fave commentary yter
@@skyboimchi
Holy crap, this editing and video is actually insane, especially around 6:51
This guy, I don’t mean kingbdogz. I mean skyboi, you are very underrated and need to get a million subs! Your editing is amazing and I love it! I will from now on watch every. Single. One. If your video’s! You deserve it!🎉
Yet another Great video By Skyboi! Your content inspires me with my own videos. Keep up the good work man!
It's kinda funny that you have more subs than skyboi
@@MnMGaming69 Well, he's probably gonna pass me up soon lol...but he deserves it!
YOOO WHAT THE LIL ALCHEMIST THEME SONG AS THE BACKING TRACK I NEVER THOUGHT ID HEAR THAT ANYWHERE ELSE
that earned you a sub, hope you get to 100k soon
7:48 im never pronouncing grayan the same way ever again
Kingbdogz and Henrik are the two most important minecraft developers in recent memory. In comparison, the rest of mojang is slacking to what they achieve, both creating some of the biggest and most prominent parts of the updates they worked on. Henrik I believe has left Mojang but was the person who was almost singlehandedly responsible for the Caves and Cliff world generation.
He tweeted the most about Caves & Cliffs world generation. Doesn't mean he did most of the work and everyone else did little work on it though. Behind the scenes there was most likely tons of work involved by everyone to develop the tech behind the world generation, raise the world height, implement chunk blending between old & new terrain, and get all that + the new terrain itself to work on both Bedrock & Java along with performance improvements to mitigate the impact of bigger chunks
I remember Henrik being very open to feedback on the 1.18 world generation on his twitter page, he even followed me back, and i have like only 20 followers on twitter
Great way to show one of the most important employees that makes blocks and mob behaviour interesting.
BTW, I noticed that you used music from Blocksworld.
the way you described him could make anyone feel like brandon's a demigod....of coding ofc... but i look forward to see what else interesting stuff does he bring to minecraft.
lets not forget that 1.21 feels like Gnembon Carpet Mod and Kingbdogz Aether mod were packed in 1 package
I suspect that the autocrafter is mostly developed by gnembon developer of the carpet mod
Dude your pretty underrated keep it up youll be successful
This is such a cool story for this guy, and he hasn't had any random weird controversies/scandals pop up (as of writing this), so that's great! I love to see people just get to...succeed y'know? Their dreams/goals may be long shots but sometimes you DO make it. I'm also just really glad such a creative and talented person works at Mojang and has been influencing the game positively. Hey, maybe one day the Aether itself CAN be in vanilla. Probably not lol, but one day possibly.
You can really see his effect on Mojang with the new uodate... the challenge areas definitely remind me of the aether dungeons.
the school i went to when i was younger was literally right next to the mojang office before, you can see it in the reflection at 5:13. i did meet Jeb one time and he gave me an autograph which is nice :)
This video is amazing, well done dude! 👏
Yo not gonna lie, the editing style is fire so keep it up my guy❤🔥

7:28 ehh jeb's up there
fair fair
bro u deserve way more subscribers for that good of a video!
I legit got jump scared when Pheea appeared lmao. Great video 👍
2:51 omg I watched that video and tried to make it on my grandmothers computer when I was little... the memories
He also played hermitcraft with graian for a day made me laugh out loud😂
I love passionate you became at the end of the video.
6:28 is wild
0:37 terraria music
Omg giant chrome A
theres been a decent amount of devs at mojang who were mod devs prior
i love the content from sky boi :) he is so underated
i like how when you said subscribe the subscribe button had rainbow on it for a second, new subscriber!
3:30 its FitMC
7:18 🤨📸
This video could’ve been made by any number of channels with 1 mil +subs, great video bro
for the first time i actually really liked this kind of video and its all because of you
king didnt make the crafter it was probably inspired by gnembon carpet mod back when gnembom was a huge modder before his carreer at Mojang now im sure king and gnem have both put into this but its more like a dropper block that gnem made along time ago
3:55 blocksworld model music (Now blocksworld is shutdown)
i never comment on videos bro but your so underrated keep this up man you will become huge
I love ur content so much omg w video 10/10
wow this minecraft video is so minecraft, this minecraft minecraft is so minecraft it can almost be considered "minecrafty" (minecraft)
why did shit get godly at the last 5 mins T_T im defo subbing, awesome vid
great video i love the pacing and editing
7:09 the music 💀💀
I think that sky is one of the best mc channels of 2023
Absolutely fire content my man 🔥🔥🔥
holy sheesh dayum i didnt knew this much bout him i knew that he created aether but warden damnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn sheeeesh good job good vid
I'd like to believe the autocrafting table is Gnebmon's influence, but that's probably just the vanilla feel
Holy Moly the PvZ Remix ay the end goes HARD
This guy spends so much time in intelej idea and knows so much about how the game is coded he is probobly one of the best players today im glad microsoft is hireing people with really good portfolios like lena ray for the sound design and this guy i wonder how he got so good at learning java as its not easy to learn as the information is scarce and coding is exetremely difficult. i do some coding and i made a fue mods and even with all the advancements in technology to make programming easyer like ai and more resouces and tutorials its still hard for compairason it took me an entire summer of learning to actually make one item
3:54 No way you used Blocksworld music as the background music!! I recognized it instantly… it caught me so off guard lmao. Man I miss that game..
What a great modder, mojang should hire him!
**ahem**
Um..actually🤓”gun shots”
Get him the most subbed kid named "Sky"
I like that this is a minecraft themed video but the background music is from terraria. Keep up the good work.
Many of the sound effects and music from this video is from PVZ and thats awesome. Nice video man
terraria be like......
the Warden is not a boss it’s a force of nature 💀
The little alchemist music, i love itttt
really cool video, + Plants vs Zombies music so automatic 10/10
I like this dude, I also wanted to be this guy aswell, getting hired by mojang.

BACON BLOCKSSSSS
Jeb is obviously the second most important player in minecraft history after Notch but it's shocking to me that he was rejected originally considering the influence he'd had over the games development so early on but i understand that senior sotfware engineers require different skillsets. I think they desperately need somebody who specialises in performance though. I like what they did with data packs but I also think there's a lot of room for improvement when it comes to control and ease of use. It would be nice to finally get the native mod support that has been talked about since 2011 without the need for modloaders etc.
bedrock is a semi solution they did for the native mod support.
nice vid, you are underrated
Wow i am so impressed by this content you deserve well over 45k subs also you should do a video on techno blades history :')
Playing Hermitcraft with Grian for a day was the peak of his career
"gryan"
6:48 WARDEN IS NOT A BOSS
You aren't supposed to fight with it. It's a mob you should AVOID using snowballs and wool.
Aether has been and will forever be my favorite adventure mod. Twilight forrest is a close second
I still remember that era and people being excited about it’s release etc.
7:16 Definitely inspired by the autoCraftingDropper from gnembon's Carpet Mod... who also works at Mojang now
2:42 did you put this clip in specifically to remind us that his Lovely World is over? If so, it worked.
i edited that before the video dropped its just coincidental
@@skyboimcgood morning
love the pvz sound effects n songs
7:18 Bro TF is this? Love it. The randomness and escalation of it had me dying
0:27 nah its more like a fundy thing
hes like what would happen is a genuine modder that makes top tier mods for a game is hired to work on that game
This guy changed mojang's direction from going downhill to going uphill, props to him
Skyboi video is always so amazing omg
hi showing
He's literally HIM 7:03
Cojomax, Gegy and gnembon were all mod developers in the past. Cojomax creating another popular mod called Tropicraft. And recent updates to the game like crafter and tick command were inspired by gnembon's Carpet mod.
Amazing video like always!
scroll back up and subscribe pls
yo
im so sorry my lord i will subscribe now
At 3:55 there's the music called "Logic" from Blocksworld. I miss that game.
Alright.
