- Let's Play More Minecraft and rediscover the game again. Following from my previous video, we are exploring a whole new world of updates I've never seen. Let's fall in love with Minecraft again
I've now made this a series! You can watch my entire Minecraft Let's Play in order here: • RTGame Minecraft Let's...
Thanks for the massive amount of support on the first video of my Minecraft adventure. I'm glad so many people have picked up the game again to give it a go for themselves. I'm excited to play more of the game, and if you enjoyed this video I recommend playing it for yourself too. I've been asked a lot to share the seed for my world, but I don't plan to share this. I want people to have their own adventure and not just try replicate my own one - I hope that's understandable!
The Chapters of Part 2 of my Adventure:
00:00 The End Dimension
07:57 The Mountain Basement
23:42 The Ocean Temple
45:25 The World Map
1:00:43 The Map Adventure
1:11:53 The Hell Barn
1:19:05 The Far South
1:34:38 The Ocean Raid
1:42:58 The Moses of Minecraft

Rediscovering Minecraft has been an absolute joy. Thank you so much to everyone for the massive amount of support on my previous Minecraft video, which I'd strongly recommend watching before this one if you haven't already. This video contains everything I've played since the last video. I'll be continuing the series starting TOMORROW 3pm GMT on my Twitch channel - if you watch this, you will be completely up to date. Massive thank you as ever to my editor Cloé for working on this, as these videos are a significant undertaking compared to others. I'm hoping to make at least one more video to follow this in the near future of my stream highlights. I hope everyone enjoys it :)
Edit: I made a little blunder with music accidentally layering at certain points in the video, and I apologise there. It seems one of my audio tracks didn't mute properly come the final edit. I'll be more careful come the next one there. It shouldn't disrupt the video too much, but it is a little noticeable when it occurs haha
It's going great hope for more
Looking forward for these chapters!
Hope youve been doing better RT
I hope this series doesn't end soon (even if you take a big break between sessions, its very nice seeing how you play, especially with the creative builds you've come up with)
hi RT I hope you find Gilbert and shove him I the blender. your such a great dad. 😊
dan is really love this series so far!!!!!!!!!! im gonna build you a wizard tower you deserve
49:44
"I want to set up a little animal farm"
"I'll call him Orwell"
English major moment
Never knew Dan was one much for Animalism.
Me who read it in 7th grade:
@@nevaansbooks2078me who read it for fun:
omg it's the literally 1984 guy
Orwell is a person you learn about in like middleschool/highschool even in non English countries, and animal farm is a book you read even earlier
That creeper was a divine punishment from God for trying to part the ocean
It was a personal attack against RT
"On that day, the drift king had made his plans to part the seas. For such would part the world itself, and prove his power and brilliance. The lord saw this, and, taken aback by the insolence, summoned forth himself before a simple beast of the land. 'Jimmy, ye humble creeper,' said the lord, 'The king Daniel hath plans to make this world his own. He attempts to split the very oceans in twain for his own purposes. Go forth, and do what must be done.' The creeper spoke not, for it had no vocal chords to speek with, yet it knew what must be done. Mustering its strength to ascend the waters, Jimmy flew to the heights of the tower, and in that moment he saw what was created. The towers were of beautiful crystal, and the tables held the maps of the world themself upon them. Jimmy was awestruck, for the house was beautiful. As Jimmy ignited, they wept internally. For, despite following the words of Mojang, the creeper knew that this was truly a nice house, and that it would be a shame for what was to happen to it."
-Definitely not the bible
Exactly. Don’t try to be Moses
Read this comment before watching the video and assumed the various creepers blowing up his house earlier were what you were talking about. Absolute horror when it actually came along
And then RT proved who's the REAL god of His world.
To think 5 years ago RT forced 200 starving chatters to drain the ocean for him when he was in Creative. Now he's parting the sea himself in Survival. We've really come full circle. He really made me miss Minecraft.
I've started a new world on the new phone I just got and I'm using his "wizard tower" style as my starter base and so far I'm 100% happier playing than with the typical "basic hut and dig underneath" style I usually try to start with. Loving this series and loving MC again
@@MarkBonneauxbro what
@@MarkBonneaux That's awesome
1:35:34 What's incredible is the explosion occurred just as it exited the water, so it still had block damage.
Wait, you're right. That's extra insane.
that part wa so god damn funny, Ive watched it about 6 times and its still getting me
Rip rod
Worst of all, I think Rod’s hitbox actually PUSHED the creeper out of the water in the nick of time to do block damage
The streamer luck is insane in this one.
RT saying "Oh wow it feels like i'm digging up an archaeological site!" and unknowingly destroying all of the suspicious gravel is so agonizing but very funny, this series great
It's really picking my bones. I want him to explore it better but Mojang kinda failed at teaching the player about the trail ruins and updated ocean ruin. I really don't want to spoil him but it hurts so much.
True
god that’s such perfect comedic bullshittery
I exclusively play 1.12, what is "suspicious gravel"?
@SignalRaptor_ block found exclusively in ruins. you can use a brush to get exclusive artifacts from it
Something I love about the series that I haven’t seen anyone else mention is how much it truly feels like a story. It doesn’t feel like someone just min maxing a video game, it truly feels like an explorer attempting to thrive in a strange new world, which is something that most Minecraft series fail to do. Well done Mr. Game and Mrs. Cloè the editor.
RT's videos are usually so earnest and that's what makes it so fun. He plays what he's interested in and if he likes it he's INVESTED (remember Clint hitting on Emily?). Jokes are good, able to spitball and riff occasionally, and he's not doing all this just to cash in on hyped stuff and it really shows. I've basically had his Minecraft VODs on loop to chill to because it's just a good time all around. Too bad he's ancient and he's gonna die of old age soon 😢
if you want another really good example of that watch piropitos play through, he’s been doing a completely blind run since 1.12
Thank you for the very kind words
It's the vibe that i used to love about some older minecraft let's plays. Some of my favorites.
Like Shadow of Israphel.
@@soggos732piropito is the scariest minecraft player ive seen. He spends days just building a stone bridge forever
for some reason... when RT was just building the mountain basement, with the chill music... it got me really nostalgic for back when I used to play Minecraft all the time.
Like RT, I haven't seriously played Minecraft outside of the build streams in years... and this series of videos has really got me reminiscing on those times. Back when I was just a kid, back when I wasn't constantly worried, when I wasn't questioning who I was as a person. The carefree days of just playing the silly block game with my friend.
It's dumb, but... this series made me remember how that felt, even if only for a little while. So, thank you, RT.
it made me feel the exact same, just a moment of peace
this series really does feel like a step back in time, a time when minecraft content was just vibes and not the attention farming manufactured crap we have now
Edit: if you like RTs playthrough I recommend a small creator name Zaroshii, his letsplay gives the same vibes, no overly attention seeking editing, just watching him play the game
i've never played minecraft before and this series really makes me want to try
A small tip for 1:38:10 - If you use a bucket of water on the trapdoor, it will become waterlogged and release water, thus creating a barrier that will still function as an elevator.
Not in java
@@jamwrightiami’m pretty sure it does in java
@@saccorhytus It does.
@@techno1561 very good then
34:42 SIR A SECOND CREEPER HAS HIT THE WIZARD TOWER
OH GOD A THIRD CREEPER HAS HIT THE WIZARD TOWER
Just wait till the end and you'll see it was an inside job
@@yaboipktendo THE FOURTH CREEPER HAS INFILTRATED THE TOWER, EVERYONE GET DOWN
@@little_jackal3923 FUCK; RELOAD, RELOAD!
1:17:40 The comedic timing of this is impeccable, genuinely. The sudden noises, the triple-take, the casual way RT addresses them, they way they don't even shoot, just stand there. Fuckin fantastic
Mexican standoff
Dude that was so perfect I was so baffled it wasn’t planned this is amazing
they synced as he notices them as well lmfao
They appeared like they are anime one episode villians
1:37:10 "Safety trapdoor" Loved that dramatic irony.
52:07 Watching him kill this 0.04% chance full Diamond Zombie instead of trying to keep it was one of the most excruciatingly painful experiences of my life
Monsters really sending elites after him
nerd
seriously though, i think whats great about this series is dan just doesn't know that much about minecraft, so he's rediscovering everything all over instead of trying to minmax every encounter. he doesn't have a clue whats going on and thats the best part
Imagine if RT didn’t make a backup before the infamous Creeper
Mojang sent in a creeper to prove their point about making backups
RIP Ron if he didn't haha
He foresaw the event but didn’t want to spoil
1:35:30
The creeper was trying to prevent RT from becoming Moses
49:55 dan naming the pig "orwell" made me burst out laughing. you can tell hes an english major lmao
I NEVER CAUGHT THAT HOL UP 😭
Please explain🥺🙏
@@gracenwilliams3751 Read "Animal Farm" by George Orwell, it's basically a contemporary critique on the rise of totalitarianism during the 1920s and 30s.
@@gracenwilliams3751 George Orwell wrote a book called Animal Farm. Basically, the animals seized the means of production from the farmer. The whole thing was a metaphor for communist Russia, and several important figures from that time were represented by pigs.
@@MrMogi-zg2ud
Don't forget the important part.
The animals of the farm, who chase off the original farmer, play out a authoritarian government, with the pigs slowly becoming dictators.
At 17:20 when Dan was building the basement on top of the track "Goodbye to a World", felt so.. precious to me. I felt a wave of serenity as I watch the clip, cloe got some good taste in music man.
The song is 'infinite amethyst' from the minecraft soundtrack
@@temtem9255 your right! It sounds incredible similar to the one I know!.
And the music sync at 18:00
It does sound crazily similar to Goodbye to a World, I was tricked at first too
Absolutely love at 3:16 when RT discovers more chunk distance only to make 4 Endermen in the distance pissed, love that
RT, destroying an ancient archeological dig site: Wow this really feels like I'm destroying an ancient archeological dig site! I wonder why
That was so funny but it physically hurt to watch
to add to the fun(pain) early archeology was VERY similar, take all the shines and blow up everything else.
I cannot emphasize enough how immensely cool the Hollow Mountain is as a setting. It's a mountain that's also a gigantic cavern with towering stalagmites nearly touching the roof and tunnels that lead further down. There's evidence of people being down here before with mine shafts, but it looks like reality altered around them with nonsensical layouts and structures floating in the air. There are amethyst geodes the size of houses. There's a wizard tower on top of the mountain made out of those geodes.
Someone please made a DnD module out of this
It's the most fantastical, imagination-inspiring setup i've ever seen. I keep picturing the wizard guiding a group of adventurers through the perilous cavern, confidently navigating the strangely coloured tower, goading the others to follow. They exchange uneasy looks before hopping into a magical water elevator that feels rather comforting instead of suffocating. Man, I love what he's made here.
That description just makes it sound even cooler.
I love it.
RT is the wizard, this is his origin story. @@Tom--pf8ub
You know what? Let's actually do this.
@@Tom--pf8uband the wizards goal is to “split the ocean”, whatever that means
What’s weird is I grew up with Minecraft. Since 1st grade I’ve been obsessed with it. I watched CZcamsrs, I laughed, I cried, and I grew up with this game. Of course, I got older. I stopped touching the game after a few years, claiming it had “fallen off.” However, I always knew it would have a place in my heart. As I grew up, those CZcamsrs revealed their true colors. I lost a lot of the people I looked up to in the past years, and it hurt me. To rediscover an interest, a growing desire with this game from a CZcamsr I’ve grown to love in the past 5 years? It feels.. good. It feels good to know I’ve grown and I’m able to rediscover an old love for something like this with a creator I value and always take the time to check in with. I’m an adult now, and I still find a kid inside of myself whenever I see these videos. Thank you, Dan.
the recurring creeper incidents were hysterical this ep 😭 awesome ending with the credits music too
dan actually doing an unironic multi-episode minecraft lets play is not what i thought 2024 had in store but here we are
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
A surprise that has brought me a kind of joy that feels so oddly nostalgic
Feels weirdly better than I thought it would. I was expecting it to be more painful. Feels like the kinda something that's been missing. I think the videos are kind of long, like a commitment to sit and watch (almost 2 hours), but they are definitely worth it when I can get around to watching them. I'm genuinely excited to see his reactions to things I've long become jaded to. Reinvigorates the game to me somewhat.
I hope this series continues until the next update.
Coincidentally a lot of my friends also came back to Minecraft recently; finally fired up that half a year-old server again. I was not expecting Minecraft March to be a thing this year but I'm all up for it.
This might be 2 hours but I absolutely prefer this, especially with the chapters, compared to multi-video long series that could span up to upwards of 50 episodes. This way I can expect it to end by 3 or 5 videos and is way more digestible @@SolstaceWinters
Watching dan explore the underwater and trail ruins really made me realise how... unintuitive the archaeology system of the game actually is. Like there's nothing to tell players to look for the suspicious gravel or use the brush on it to dig up items, unless they follow the patch notes or watch it from someone else.
Like even a toast popup in the corner when you destroy a piece of suspicious gravel would help, just anything to inform the player that they're doing something wrong.
There should at least be a tooltip on the brush or something explaining its use
To be fair, much of Minecraft is obscure/unintuitive. Nobody would think to make a nether portal (aside from maybe after seeing one of the ruined ones), or craft eyes of ender to find the End portal, or put three wither skulls on soulsand, so on. There are dozens of blocks that are lost forever without silk touch or the right tool.
The word-of-mouth style to the game is one of its unique traits I wouldn't want it to lose, even if one of the frustrating ones too (especially when watching people who are stubbornly committed to the 'go in blind' mindset). Dan is luckily not like that, and open to learning from chat / has seen snippets of newer content. Maybe the game wouldn't be so special if it didn't call for such collaboration and could be mastered in a vacuum like most others :)
@@wissertpiropito....
@@wissertI kind of disagree with this, Minecraft is undoubtedly a special game due to its legacy and ideas but it's kind of not super well designed, and I don't mean that the word of mouth systems don't work, I mean that the way that the game is being designed now and how it *was* being designed originally are actively clashing. Minecraft is no longer trying to get people to figure out features and spread them, now it fully intends for its players to figure out features in-game, hence adding the crafting recipes as a pop-up on the left and all the new structures hinting at what your goals should be... And that's fine, changing it's design from difficult to comprehend without the community to something that anyone can pick up and figure out is actually great! However the team isn't committing fully to it. Pillagers are easy to figure out from gameplay, so are caves and mining. Better ores = better equipment, lava = deadly, raiders = bad, most of the game works on simple to understand logic but when you introduce a block that has a different sound and slightly different look to another, however is still designed to closely resemble that block, and you make one item required to get it to its full potential, and you don't give either the block or an item a tooltip, you're back to the original design philosophy of "if people find out, they'll spread the word". I love Minecraft, truly. I have been playing it since 1.3.2, but I just wish the game would pick a course and stay on it. The very directionless way it's currently going is upsetting.
@@wissert"Dan is luckily not like that"
Clearly you haven't seen him during the streams themselves...
Tears of the Kingdom brainrot has been kicking in bad, because the entire time he was building his base underground I kept thinking "just throw a brightbloom seed" or "shoot a bomb arrow at those mobs" lol
I genuinely think this is more entertaining than most movies coming out now. As others have mentioned, it really does feel like a story with downfalls and triumphs. I normally put on long yt videos to play in the background while I'm playing a game, but i couldnt focus on my game watching this. This video just kept drawing my attention back. Well done, Dan and Cloé, for making a cinematic masterpiece. I can't wait for the finale
The "dig site" that RT found was a structure called the trail ruins, to loot it properly, you need to make a brush with copper, a stick and a feather. Then you can loot the odd looking gravel for items like dyes, panes, music discs and more. Honestly one of my personal favourite additions and I hope RT eventually discovers its true function as its honestly fairly relaxing
Underwater structures like the desert temple and sunken ruins can also have these gravel variants or even sand, which have different loot including diamonds, more pottery shards and sniffer eggs, a new mob added.
Edit: the entire point of this comment was for Dan to know abit more about what he found, as a friendly piece of info, not start an argument in the comments.

It broke me inside when he dug up the suspicious gravel
Sherds not shards
How was he supposed to know that?
@@CesarTheKingVA By reading this comment and time travelling, obviously!
Watching a creeper walk up to Dan's home or randomly spawning in it,... really hurts. It really highlights the importance of lighting up your home and the nearby area.
HIS DOOR WAS CLOSED
BUT HE LEFT HIS UNGROUND UNLIT@@airplanes_aren.t_real
Dan needs to get himself some cats for protection from creepers!
It probably spawned in the basement and climbed up@@airplanes_aren.t_real
@@airplanes_aren.t_realIt definitely spawned in the dark area in the elevator shaft since there's ground there and it's dark, then just went up the shaft. It wasn't there after he reset because it hadn't spawned yet when he made the backup, so it wasn't guaranteed to spawn there again. The creeper outside was irrelevant.
There’s genuinely something so good about this series. Every time I watch and think “hE’s NoT DOinG iT riGht.” I make myself stop and wait, and each time it’s wonderful. I thought I knew what a Minecraft build was supposed to look like, but I am a bit in love with the wizard tower and the observatory. Glad you’re enjoying the series RT, because it is a joy to behold
This series truly captures what it is to really enjoy Minecraft how it was supposed to be made to be played. Not trying to min max at every opportunity but just going at your own pace and doing whatever you want and building whatever you want.
RT going from expanding his home even further by making a basement inside of a mountain to reenacting the Bible where Moses parts the Red Sea was something I wasn’t expecting on my Minecraft Let’s Play bingo card.
Probably explains why a random Creeper blew up RT’s house as a form of divine punishment from God himself.
Jesus christ, the video has been out for 50 seconds and youve already spoiled it😭
Im never looking at the comments again
a single random creeper is underselling it a bit
@@thechaostornado6600 it's all from the streams after all. I do recommend watching the vods too
@@HazeEmry I sadly don't have enough times to catch up on vods, they're generally just too long. But I do guess it's kinda my fault lol
Divine punishment is crazy 😂😂😂
RT becoming a whimsical wizard on a mountain top in a shining amethyst tower, surrounded by beautiful cherry blossoms, above a vast underground cave system/dungeon, a conqueror of villages, explorer of Hell, Slayer of dragons is so D&D and was not on my 2024 bingo card. Point being we need more fan art
And this wizard harvested the materials and built it all with his own two hands, no magical shortcuts or minions who built it for him. An absolute sage of the cherry mountain
Who then proceeds to part the ocean
His Minecraft username, Magistrex, even sounds like the name of a legendary wizard!

You are so precious, Dan, never change
Watching Dan play minecraft with next to no prior knowledge and seeing him problem solve throughout all the environmental storytelling slowly teaching him mechanics he was unaware of is a truly magical experience
The odds of Dan finding a damn zombie with full diamond armor is 0.04%… bro is Irish with that luck
fun fact: luck of the irish is ironic
But damn does it flip the table with the creepers
st patricks day moment
@@krisnaputramaulidan2843We all know that by now, but the thing is, the original, ironic meaning of the phrase absolutely applies here, since a zombie with armour is a bad thing because it's basically just a tougher enemy, so it's genuinely just horrible luck. Between that and the creeper in the elevator and the amount of creepers blowing up the tower in this video, this is definitely "luck o' the irish" at work. XD
Sorry to be that guy, but over time local difficulty increases per time spent in a chunk, also increasing the chance for armored mobs to spawn in those chunks. So after some hours spent in a chunk radius, it will be a lot more likely for more difficult mobs to spawn there.
I’m crying. I’m actually crying. This. THIS!!! Is what lets plays should be. You are a joy and a comfort. Thank you Dan. Thank you
I love how RT went from finding his first home in a village to "got any valuables?" Very rapidly
Daniel you might not see this but if you do I just want to let you know, I'm an adult on the autism spectrum, and java edition Minecraft has been my special interest for over 10 years now. You have no idea how much joy this series brings me. Its an incredibly fun experience and I hope to god you are enjoying this as much as I am.
I've been tuning into the streams when off work, and mining away along side you in my own single player world. I am so incredibly proud of how far youve come in this series and I cant wait for more. I hope you don't feel any pressure to make this a full playthrough though if you arnt feeling up to it, that's the beauty of Minecraft, you can always boot up a new or old world and explore anew.
Please put you're own health and wellbeing before making videos or streaming Dan, and well be there to join in long with you whenever you feel up to it.

Well said brother
Loved it when Dan parted the ocean with a Beyblade
Howdy!

Legit, this is one of my favorite series from RT since the kirby game and persona 5. The way you play the game just feels fun and chill idk how else to put it. It's honestly mesmerizing and relaxing (minus the stressful bits)
The final minute of this video is some of most impressive Minecraft I’ve seen from a casual play through ever, actually just the entirety of both vids are super impressive, I really hope you make more than one more video out of this play through because it’s genuinely fantastic
in an age of minecraft videos where they optimize the fun out of it, it's nice to see someone just genuinely enjoy playing the game with no strings attached. no permadeath, no mods that add the industrial revolution, just pure Minecraft as you remember it.
"optimize the fun out of it" holy shit i never knew how to describe it until now

I love how RT just lets the music play, without trying to fit his voice into every part of the gameplay. Really nostalgic. I haven't felt this carefree watching/playing Minecraft since the days of Stampy. I really hope he continues this series
THATS what this reminded me of omg
This is so much more than just like watching someone build for funzies, it genuinely feels like RT’s Lovely World
I thought I was the only one thinking of stampy when watching this, it just hits that same vibe
I used to come back from school and fall asleep on the couch watching stampy.
Hearing at least some part of The End from Volume Beta made me relive everything. I then listened to it in full, uninterrupted. It's one of those tracks you have to listen to like that, it gets an entirely different meaning.
Also heard some tracks from Lena Raine in the 3rd Minecraft stream while exploring the mines and those are so good as well. It's time to play Minecraft again...and maybe update my pfp after 10 years
I genuinely cried at this episode. The serenity of building the basement and Dan’s genuine excitement at everything is just amazing.
I'm loving this series. It has been a breath of fresh air compared to other minecraft series where everyone is min maxxing and speedrunning. The editing is also top-notch, and i love the building sections where your voice fades out and the music gets louder. I believe this type of content is your most entertaining and would love to see it for other games like terraria.

I wanna give an extra special shoutout to the editing on this one. The calm tranquil moments with just gameplay sounds and music as RT builds the tower basement are just so lovely. It just feels so therapeutic. Phenomenal stuff.
yes!! i loved the music in those moments! 👌
for sure
Man this is how Minecraft is meant to be played. The game on youtube has become "scream loudly, blow things up and automate everything" in a way that loses the sense of exploration. Its really nice to see a chill playthrough.
The warm fuzzy feeling I get from those building montages are just incredible. It feels so wholesome to see expressions of creativity shown with thought care and intention ❤
9:13
I love how the track in the mineshaft was positioned as a naturally spawning trap.
I mean like-- It was LITERALLY the only track separated from the rest and it was perfectly surrounded by gravel.
I love how quaint RT’s builds are. So many Minecraft builds today are massively impressive art projects that push Survival Minecraft to its limits. I love to see those builds and the talent behind it, but Dan’s builds give of this homely feel that you don’t see on CZcams nowadays. That’s not to say Dan’s a bad builder, he’s very good, he’s just not an insane professional like the people you’d find on Hermitcraft or Empires. Thank you, Raniel Taniel Video Games
I'd say Dan's a better builder
I make very small and quaint builds as well. I don't want to grind for all those blocks. I'd just hop into creative and use World Edit if I want to build massive builds. Coping and pasting already stuff I made by hand is more time-efficient. You're cheating in Minecraft survival though, I mean so? Probably also has something to do with my conservative nature. If I don't want to destroy the environment in real life why would I want to destroy the natural environment of Minecraft's landscape? This is why I hate Mojang not adding a way to make certain blocks like coral: I understand the point of why they made coral blocks not having crafting recipe, since coral can't be replaced in real life, Minecraft is a video game. Making mud is also annoying. just make it so mud can happen when it rains and there's dirt on the ground. Though that may cause a lot of lag if they actually incorporated it.
Nah have you SEEN Joel's base on hermitcraft this season (/lh)
You can definitely appreciate the quaintness of RT's builds but calling him a very good builder is a stretch.
I had a pretty rought day, and I have to say it, this is channel is just such a confort space for me. Here, I especialy loved the building montages, it captures the most pure part of minecraft that most videos ignore, and seeing his little mistakes, and how its part of the fun, it just makes me smile...
honestly i have seen a ton of minecraft epic builds and speed builds but there was something so awesomely wholesome about the parting of the ocean it was very real and felt like this huge goal accomplished. and not like a huge minecraft youtuber goal where you have to build huge epic show stopping bases but a big project that you might undertake at home on your own game. it made it a lot more personal. thanks for sharing this with us dan.
24:01 I completely love the fact that a portion of RT's knowledge on Minecraft comes purely from the lego sets
Truly the most pro gamer to ever mine the craft!
The most unfortunate series of events imaginable. This really is the Empire Strikes Back of a Minecraft let’s play.
That Ocean Monument was brutal, he lost so many things, purely bc he didn't realize that doors are submarines.
RT casually getting one of the most insane world generations and him not realizing it is hilarious
RT climbing the side of the mountain by scooping up and replacing the water source is the most impressive thing ive ever seen from an inexperienced player
Especially when he climbed out of the ravine with Butter
@@ButterPecan37 DUDE RIGHT??? I hadn't seen that yet when i originally commented but when I did I flipped, it was incredible
to be fair, he is not an inexperienced player per se, he just did not play Minecraft for a really long time
@@AlphaSutoraiku💀
Dan's blood was boiling so hot after the creeper assault, he might as well have evaporated the entire ocean with it.
I really really like this series, I know the end card says next episode will be the last, but I really hope he continues it. This playthrough feels so homey and comforting, and i really needed that today.
it's a very subtle touch but i really love that he edited the music back in to be seamless even during the cuts. it really add something.
All these people and their fancy door hacks, If he drained the ocean, he wouldn't be able to drown as theres no water for him to drown in.
Edit: if you missed the stream, the reason why dan didnt do the door trick is because he told chat he wouldnt use it cause he didnt figure it out for himself, chat was literally screaming at him to use doors to the point where he had to tell chat to stop.
I'm more surprised it took that long for someone to tell him to use doors
@@Roflmao6173I was like screaming at my screen I was in disbelief that chat was actually that dumb😭
Not only that he also passed by a magma block
@@Roflmao6173 as a bedrock player, I forgot that was even a thing

I think what you need at base is a cat. If i remember correctly they will help keep creeper away (not 100% done watching the video yet)
THIS. as a bonus, they give a +2 cuteness buff to your base
Watching these videos is so calming yet so surreal. It's like a portal back in time to when I'd go over to my mate's place as a kid and watch him play Minecraft on the Xbox 360 because he only had one controller. I feel like pointing out things or offering help just like I did back then, even though it's a video of a random dude on the other side of the world who I've never met. I'm sitting here thinking "Look out for that ravine" like an idiot. Even so, it still takes me back to then. It's such a strange feeling.
On the rare occasions that I play Minecraft these days it's lost the magic it had when I was little. I just speedrun through the game with the most optimal strategies without taking my time. Abusing villagers for gear, getting netherite to become immortal, gunning for an elytra, all of that crap. That's stuff that takes knowledge and skill that I have learnt over a long time of playing this game and yet I wish I could have the kind of experience that Dan has in these videos, just playing Minecraft how it was meant to be played.
All of the suboptimal and "pointless" stuff that he does in this world would sometimes make me die inside when I started watching the series, but I eventually realised that none of the things he does are actually "wrong". Sure, they might be slower than the best method or even outright hinder his overall progress, but he's still having a good time. If I was to do those things myself in my own world I would be thinking "I could have been done with this by now". He knows just enough information about the game to know what he is able to do, but not enough information to know the best way to do it. It's like his ability to play Minecraft is protected by blissful ignorance lmao. The option to discover something and figure out what it is and how it should be managed by himself is open, most of us have followed all of the updates and have been shown exactly what the best way to do something is by others. He's lucky in that way.
I'm really glad Dan is having so much fun with this playthrough, there aren't too many people on the planet who have had this game be such a big part of their lives but can still play it like it's one of their first times ever. And even outside of the personal part, to have such success on a multi-part, 2-hour-long-episode, unmodified Minecraft Let's Play in 2024 in which he literally just plays the game, it says a lot about a creator. I mean I thought about all this so much that I cared enough to write this long ass comment, so he must be doing something right.
I don't comment often, but I had to give props to the editing of this video. I've watched quite a few minecraft lets plays in the past but these videos have such a more homey feel to them. In particular the "building montage" section with the basement felt so gentle in a way. The synced block placement to the music at 18:00 that wasn't jump cut or edited, just someone placing blocks and thinking how best they might look. It evoked such a wonderful feeling not many things can capture. I'm viewing these quite later on but I'm glad there's more videos to see :)
Hell yeah.
Hell yeah.
Hell yeah.
Hell yeah.
Hell yeah.
He’ll say yeah. Whoops
I mean this in the most genuine way possible, Dan is one of the most creative people I have ever seen play this game. Like when he mentioned building an observatory into the mountain I audibly gasped, that is such an amazing idea. Also no one has ever made that block palate work for a house before so I have to give him credit there too
mr rt game, this video literally, unironically, legitimately, and all of those words and more, made me cry. i cannot express in words how much i am enjoying watching you playthrough my favourite childhood and and still favorite game, in way i have never been able to play through it myself. Ive always wanted to play minecraft the way you are right now ever since i saw my my cousin playing on his ipad 15 years ago, and after watching some of ny favorite lets play youtuber like stampylongnose, squaisheyquack, and popularmmos. But i had never gotten around to playing like this in such a calming creative way where you build and explore and create in your world to write a story and adventure of your life lived there, because ive struggled due to my adhd to not immediately build megastructures and then give up halfway and abandon the world. watching you play has let me relive that wishfulfillment i got by watching my favorite minecraft youtuber a back in the day. watching you had inspired me to try again to get back into the game and actually live in it and create my own story, and i thank you for that.
please keep uploading these videos, and thank you ms editor for presenting them in such a way that makes me so happy.
thank you
I still cannot believe Chat let him do all this ocean stuff without telling him about door breathing.
Not gonna lie, seeing that whole triple creeper attack at 34:22 reminded me of one of the previous playthroughs of Minecraft that RT did, specifically the one where he joked about it being the 300,000th episode or something. Seeing it happen AGAIN live was surely an experience. Time truly is a flat circle sometimes.
Rt not even noticing the suspicious gravel making glass sound when it breaks in all the ruins hurts my soul. If you read this, Dan, craft a brush with a copper ingot, a feather, and a stick, then return to the digsite. Use the brush on any gravel that looks like it has a dark spot. This is the sort of feature you can't figure out on your own.
as someone who was in chat, we were also dying inside
oh interesting!! was that part of a newer update?
@@etanesnil7072 yes! I believe sand also has an equivalent that spawns in Desert Temples. If you use the brush on it you get a random item pulled from a loot table.
@@etanesnil7072yeah it's pretty recent, archaeology update ^^ there's other stuff you can find in different structures but I won't mention it here as don't want to spoil things for RT.
@@etanesnil7072it was a part of the update that added the sniffer you can find the sniffer egg in the ocean ruins via the suspicious gravel there, the one rt found was a trail ruin which gives you a music disk, he actually uses the music from the disk as the building song for the hell barn
The fact that RT is unaware of what suspicious sand and gravel are is causing me a great deal of pain
Genuinely impressed with his builds.
I wasn't confident at the start with prison house, but he's really shined from the wizard tower onwards.
The creepers and ruined portals continually appearing are one of my favorite unscripted bits so far
I feel that Dan being a good builder must come from examining so many builds during the other minecraft streams. That actually makes it very sweet that, not only watching, hes observing and learning how others build.
31:21 The fact that no one told Dan about doors is brutal
1:28:00 yes I remember the good ole days of Minecraft where if you found a stray piece of cobblestone in the wilderness it meant your server was haunted and it’s time to burn it all down
dan i dont think you will see this message but this series so far have made me so emotional and want to cry so often and im glad im able to call myself a fan
1:00:48 That is some definite "'Where's my phone/wallet/keys', only to find them in your hands/pockets the whole time" energy right there.
It's wierd I've seen hundreds of minecraft CZcamsrs doing so much more and it feels like nothing. but RT does very little and yet it feels like an emotional journey. The parting of the Sea in particular had me almost crying. Bravo to Cloe for making actual art out of a Minecraft let's play
this is what Minecraft is all about man, finally I found a let's play series from someone who truly *gets* it. Well done RT and Cloé 👏
I cannot describe how aesthetically pleasing the base is
The purples and whites with the oranges as accents just works so well.the blocks are just saturated enough that it isn't jarring
I love how no one told him to place a door underwater or drink milk to get rid of mining fatigue :P
As long as the elder guardians are alive, they'll put another layer of Mining Fatigue almost instantaneously. Doors are more effective for air pockets
@@kristophesiem5336probably still would've saved the 5 and a half minutes of digging one gravel block
I think dan said he didn't want to know the minecraft tricks from viewers
@@kristophesiem5336 oh wait I typed "bed" lmao, I meant door. Idk how that happened lol
I was going to say, how was no one telling him about the door trick
Petition to rename butter to Lurpak since he's all fancy now
I'm coming back to this series now it's finished to binge watch it (I skipped it when it was new, you see), and while I'll save my full thoughts for the final video I have to make one note here in particular.
Dan, you may be working on 2012 Minecraft brain, and by no means is this comparable to people who spend full weeks off camera building absurdly massive highly-detailed structures in funny cube game, but for some reason I feel genuinely and deeply impressed with the parted sea. It tickles some itch that I didn't even know was there, that I think might've been with me since my first underwater base in Beta 1.3. Well done.
49:56 "I'll call him Orwell"
That was extremely clever for a throwaway line.
He is an english major
@@afinnishfishnet7366 oh my god that makes so much sense
RT just roleplaying in Minecraft the wizard full of hubris he always dreamt of being. You go, Drift King.
Dan says "Hell Barn" the builds a Zen masterpiece
This really makes me want to play Minecraft again.
I've also really missed those more classic world let's plays and I didn't even know it.
Just slowly discovering things and appreciating what you've accomplished.
the creepers besieging the home and culminating in one breaking in, then rising up Dan's waterfall was so funny :P
No joke please please please keep this going. The vibe and feel, your series actually reignited my desire and love of minecraft. This may sound dumb but for some reason the ending, the music and montages made me tear up. The way you approach this is so earnest, please keep it up
1:28:36 at this point, I recommend you get the brush to uncover artifacts in the gravel. That's incredibly rare and valuable and great care needs to be taken to not destroy any gravel in a thing like that.
I have good news and bad news from the more recent streams.
I swear to god Dan got the best world seed I have ever seen in my life
This has quickly risen to my top 5 favorite minecraft series of all time. Huge props to Dan and especially Cloé’s editing for such a great series
i think this is like my favourite series RTs done, with miitopia being a very close second . i hope he does way more of these
Its actually really fun watching someone experience minecraft like this! Seeing you get creative, or try to puzzle stuff out, not going about things like you know every single detail about the game or have a wiki open (because you don't)...
I think sometimes when a game is this longstanding, it gets to a point where most folks know everything already and/or don't stop to smell the roses, even if they are new players, because the game is so widely discussed and played online
Edit: Incoming asswhooping for the Guardians at 41:00 haha I respect it
I'm so happy you decided to continue your minecraft journey! The first minecraft video was so good, can't wait to see what you do in this one!
i really dont know how to explain it but this "series" gives me a really strong bob family household vibes
you are taking a game and turning into a story, not just a gameplay
keep up the good work dan, ive been watching your channel ever since the first cities skylines video, and you keep getting better everytime.
love u
I get the feeling this is going to be a sort of comfort series for me.
I love how the chill moments and calming music is highlighted so often. It's like a combination of a minecraft music playlist and a lets play. Perfect combination.
Thank you RT! c:
It's been really cool seeing you rediscover Minecraft as someone who follows the game very closely. It's a really refreshing sight seeing what new features you've found and what features you've mistakenly ignored. I hope some dev looks at this and takes it as feedback on what new features are intuitive vs what features might need a few more clues. Can't wait for part 3!
Hope they improve the iron spawns. With the caves and cliffs update it's rarer than diamonds for me. Also obviously, the warden and archeology things. Warden thing is less important maybe. My 1st playthrough was in 2019 I think
Can we just appreciate the ammount of effort Cloé has put into editing this? The music and sound effects are perfect
this genuinely is such a surprise i didnt think we'd be getting a second part so soon and the first video was so comforting and calming for me so excited to have this during my stressful day
