I feel like the intro is fun, but for binging the no intro might be better. In the end, just do what you think is best and I'm sure we'll like it! Love the long videos tho!
All I'm saying is... The Castle needs a statues of Skyes [or something] somewhere. I propose using copper blocks and let them get fully oxidized for that lovely green.
If you do decide to make this series a co-op, I would recommend a modpack called "essentials", which basically makes the multiplayer like bedrock edition, with friends and stuff, and you can just add all the mods you already have to the modpack! I've used it a bit and it's actually really easy
You could make the space underneath into a lush cave with glow berries a lot of moss and maybe a pond with axolotls and froggos with a secret entrance. Or a dungeon lol
47:15 Shires are where hobbits of middle-earth live. What you are looking for is *spires* 50:07 I think a garden of flowers in the small courtyard would be best because you walk around it on the stone pathway, and the upper courtyard has small spots of multiple different veggie farms.
For the stairs in the middle, put some carpet to break it up! It's a classic medieval thing to have a fancy pants carpet going down the stairs. It can be red to stay with the theme, or light blue to keep with your theme!
At 29:12 instead of using honey under carpets , if you put berry bushes under carpets mobs will not walkpast them, so you couls use that rather than honey, then it's more convenient for you too
To answer the question at 8:21 I actually put your videos when I clean usually! But right now I watch it while working on a character chart, like double windows on my screen it's quite funny
When I was digging up a mountain to show an ancient city I watched all of the extra edition of the lord of the Rings. And I miss watching your videos weekly and it's great to have you back. And intros are what a youtuber does. So just do what you like, it's your channel right? It's good to make changes and it shows development of the youtuber and what they learned
keeping villagers in: id put a fence with some leaves on top kinda build a hedge id bring a stone cutter to the build and transfer a lot of stone there as you dig. because you dig, bring to base, transfer to build. you can cut the middle part out. some castle walls have wooden structures on the sides like galleries around it or castle toilets look it up! it could remove some flatness what might look good on the top courtward walls is on the sides, you go down one block and replace the second block with walls it would give depth to the structure.
i think if skyes cut down some height ( 7 or 8 blocks or so ) of the front upper courtyard that hangs over the grand staircase to make a middle tier garden space that would make the upper courtyard look less gray from the lower courtyard, so when you walk to the upper from the lower courtyard theres two custom trees or other tall features that over hang the grand staircase, it should help break up the elevation
You do not disappoint skyes. A 10/10 editing, the jokes are on point, I really like the little teasers we get on CZcams shorts, and I'm in love with icy's artwork
You can do something like an arch at the end of the stairs, maybe a drawbridge! So you can put down fence gates and the villagers will not be able to get out :) i did the same thing in my medieval castle, so none died and they could roam around in the castle :)
King man was one of my favorites! Samuel L Jackson played his role well and so did Eggsy! The dog scene nearly made me cry 29:26- for the villagers walking around, maybe let the walk around freely but make like a Redstone gate with fences that goes into the ground when you hit a lever, sounds a little medieval like somewhat the same mechanics of a draw bridge
I have an idea...but not sure if you can. Youband Darman need to share an IP range or at least a DNS then you can open your world to LAN with cheats off then he can join on you. Your PC becomes the server
I'm definitely in favour of you downloading the create mod, it would open more farm opportunities, thus more builds to do but also might not lag out your world as bad as the vanilla farm and storage methods. And it would be good for you to have a world where you can dedicate time to learning how to use the create mod in a world you would fear having a time limit.
with the villagers in the castle: i would say you could build them little marketplaces where they can move around in but can't escape or you could technically just let them free roam. as long as you find a way to put the work tables on the castle (maybe as decoration) and provide them with beds, they usually dont wander off a lot
On one side of the massive wall do like an aqueduct/hanging garden and on the other side do a total contrast with the sewer/death landscape. Will give purpose and aesthetics to the medieval castle theme.
hey skyes you should let darman play with you sometimes and i saw you mentioned horror and i would love to see you play a scary game like phasmophobia i think it be great content watching you get scared like hell
I prefer the longer videos because I listen to is as a pod cast while at work and then I go home and actually watch the video. Not gonna lie your voice is soothing and makes me less angry at work.
If you want to fill the trading hall with "life" but not have to deal with too many villagers roaming free... 🤔 There's always that straw mannequin mod that Mr. Beardstone used to add his subscribers to his world. It lets you put on a player's skin on the mannequin as long as you have their MC name and then pose them so they look like they're doing different things. They don't move but that might actually be a good thing. 😅 I think I remember which series and episode he used it on. Want me to find the exact name of the mod so you can check it out? I don't mind doing that for you, though I don't doubt someone will see this comment and provide the name before I can, lol. 😉👍
I think for the upper court yard, you could round it off/ mirror it at the other end where the trading hall will be. And maybe have a pond on one or both sides. Oh, and you could use the re widening of the pathway to make a small path around the trading hall.
29:22 Use the command /give @s spawn_egg 1 51. It gives you an NPC spawn egg. The best part is you can choose their names, appearance, and speech. They don’t move, but they could liven up the space for you.
If you dont like the wall being so flat, then you could add a small pathway around the wall starting at the lower courtyard height. Its a small fix but it would add a suprising amount of depth. It would also make the first level of the foundation larger and more prominent so it looks like the building is more sturdy. Idk just a thought...
So on hermitcraft theyre using those berries and carpet too keep their horses in. Not sure who thought of it first though, Etho also using an interestimg fence method
For the entrance to the main building, you should bring up the walkway/entrance up three blocks every 10 blocks so it doesn’t feel like you’re walking for so long. 51:19
2 1/2 hrs. I love watching it as long as I can before I fall asleep and going back to it multiple times. Love your movies. AND your builds. XO Princess Leah
I like the intros being a moments from the rest of the video. But I don't really care about it that much, either way is fine. ^^ As long as Skews will be yapping, which we know he will, I will love it.
I don’t know if this works or not but you might be able to put sweet berry bushes in front of your stairways of the the build and cover them with carpet. That way Villagers wouldn’t walk over them so they could walk around the courtyard but not leave the castle.
Only 1:20?😢 Definitely like the longer uploads 😊 would love to see you build the castle in one sitting. ( I understand that might be a little to much 😂) but yes 2-3 hours ❤️ love that.
Halo, imma leave this here too since i wase late to the previous video. Great job keep it going \o/ This is probably going to get lost in the comments, but look into the "FramedBlocks" mod, it lets you pick inbetween a lot of different shapes and you can then apply any block you wish to them, so you could have, for example, dirt stairs or stone half slabs, or a glowstone button that actually gives light. If you end up using it, you need an item called "Framed Hammer" to remove the "appearance block" without destroying the whole thing. Happy yapping o/
Skews don’t want to burden us with all the long videos, little does he know if he post 6 hour episodes I’ll still binge watch them, but jokes aside love all the content ❤ probs to skews and Darman
Hey Skyes about that villager trading with respect to biome thingy, it’s in experimental stage only they didn’t announced anything about adding it to the main game yet. So we are kinda safe. (I prefer video time to be 1:30 hours, but I can hear you yap for even more if you want that’s your wish😊) Also new Netherite update is not too tedious, all you need is 1 smithing template that’s it (kinda love to see you suffer) [feels like I am a bad person xd 😂] Anyway love all your videos keep it goin
Install rails from your mining hill to your base. Your mule can still help with the last load, but build a bunch of minecarts with chests from the hill to your trading hall with some power rails so uou can just load up chests and send them down when they get full, save you multiple trips back and forth and save time
in the long skinny section in the lower part, do beds for like tanning beds to lookout and view the land, and put flowers in the smaller 2 parts. in the top part do farms and a few trees! just my opinion
I love how you ask if we put on your videos and then dig a whole cause I’m watching your video while going AFK so I can build a sorting system for when I’m done mining a 100x100 hole in this world 😂😂😂
1:02:04 it seems I should keep watching the video when I have ideas because every time I say something as a suggestion, you say the same exact thing, like, a minute later. XD
“Hello (insert skyes fandom name here) and welcome back to the mid evil Minecraft survival series” “today will will be doing/ continuing (task/build/explore)
59:45 I would widen the path at the end to round off the upper courtyard and give the doors more of a black market/stables theme. Edit: I meant like how most Gothic/medieval castles in movies and shows have the entrance with stables on either side of the gate and a small market for people to get wares for travel that they may have forgotten or lost along their journey. Not the door itself being black market themed
In the lower court yard where the grass is u could make it a farm of sheep or cows instead of trees. It makes the middle tree look special (like an elder tree) or u could dig down with stairs and make a pool/hot tub
For the travel you can always use lamas and just have a trail of them with a bunch of chest so you have a little more storage instead of running back and forth a 1000 times
Do you guys like it if we do the intro like that? Or should I go back to the usual intros?
Maybe I missed it but I what happened to bbn$ intros
I like both intros and I think having 2 to three hour long videos would be the best.
😊😊😊 I like the video
No intro
I feel like the intro is fun, but for binging the no intro might be better. In the end, just do what you think is best and I'm sure we'll like it! Love the long videos tho!
All I'm saying is... The Castle needs a statues of Skyes [or something] somewhere. I propose using copper blocks and let them get fully oxidized for that lovely green.
The statues could help bring depth to the flat walls and maybe some trees
If you do decide to make this series a co-op, I would recommend a modpack called "essentials", which basically makes the multiplayer like bedrock edition, with friends and stuff, and you can just add all the mods you already have to the modpack! I've used it a bit and it's actually really easy
What they said! ^
Bros boost this comment for the good of the community
You could make the space underneath into a lush cave with glow berries a lot of moss and maybe a pond with axolotls and froggos with a secret entrance. Or a dungeon lol
Moss is superior to grass anyways
47:15 Shires are where hobbits of middle-earth live. What you are looking for is *spires*
50:07 I think a garden of flowers in the small courtyard would be best because you walk around it on the stone pathway, and the upper courtyard has small spots of multiple different veggie farms.
52:48 when you go through and texture, use stairs and walls to add little dips to add dimension.
with as many pay cuts darman has received that brother is probably getting paid .99 cents 😂😂
Nah bluds in the negatives he wasn’t paid to begin with 😂
For the stairs in the middle, put some carpet to break it up! It's a classic medieval thing to have a fancy pants carpet going down the stairs. It can be red to stay with the theme, or light blue to keep with your theme!
Like if sky's your favorite CZcamsr
sky isn’t but skyes aka skews is! 😂
Not favorite youtuber in general but definitely my favorite MC youtuber. He’s for sure in my top 5 though for overall creators on CZcams.
coryxkenshin is my fav 😭 Sky’s is my third cause grian is my second
He is THE G.O.A.T
Mossy stone bricks near bottom maybe some andisite and stone and Grey wool near the top as a gradient?
In the courtyards maybe make small “market stands” if that makes sense, with wood and carpet, where the villagers would sell things (:
At 29:12 instead of using honey under carpets , if you put berry bushes under carpets mobs will not walkpast them, so you couls use that rather than honey, then it's more convenient for you too
Bro this is the best series out their and I think the mega build could be even bigger lmao, keep up the work skyes
oh i made it a lot bigger
To answer the question at 8:21 I actually put your videos when I clean usually! But right now I watch it while working on a character chart, like double windows on my screen it's quite funny
When I was digging up a mountain to show an ancient city I watched all of the extra edition of the lord of the Rings. And I miss watching your videos weekly and it's great to have you back. And intros are what a youtuber does. So just do what you like, it's your channel right? It's good to make changes and it shows development of the youtuber and what they learned
The longer the videos the better! We def love this series!!!
Him being irritated with the bird is funny😂😂
keeping villagers in: id put a fence with some leaves on top kinda build a hedge
id bring a stone cutter to the build and transfer a lot of stone there as you dig. because you dig, bring to base, transfer to build. you can cut the middle part out.
some castle walls have wooden structures on the sides like galleries around it or castle toilets look it up! it could remove some flatness
what might look good on the top courtward walls is on the sides, you go down one block and replace the second block with walls it would give depth to the structure.
On the upper walls you should add a waterfall or something like that
33:40 a horror game stream would be sick
i think if skyes cut down some height ( 7 or 8 blocks or so ) of the front upper courtyard that hangs over the grand staircase to make a middle tier garden space that would make the upper courtyard look less gray from the lower courtyard, so when you walk to the upper from the lower courtyard theres two custom trees or other tall features that over hang the grand staircase, it should help break up the elevation
You do not disappoint skyes. A 10/10 editing, the jokes are on point, I really like the little teasers we get on CZcams shorts, and I'm in love with icy's artwork
halloween horror games for october would be awesome!!!
Make the videos as long as possible lol. Listening to you yapping and playing minecraft is so good. Love the 2-3/4 hour videos
You can do something like an arch at the end of the stairs, maybe a drawbridge! So you can put down fence gates and the villagers will not be able to get out :) i did the same thing in my medieval castle, so none died and they could roam around in the castle :)
This is why I build mega bases in creative, not in survival, so I don’t have to worry about gathering the resources❤
King man was one of my favorites! Samuel L Jackson played his role well and so did Eggsy! The dog scene nearly made me cry
29:26- for the villagers walking around, maybe let the walk around freely but make like a Redstone gate with fences that goes into the ground when you hit a lever, sounds a little medieval like somewhat the same mechanics of a draw bridge
If you put fence gates under carpet, you aren’t able to walk over them but if you make a lever or something to open them then you are able to 29:49
Glass for the dome part and then the “Structural part” could be wood or that copper idea you had or stone, anything really even foliage
i just finally finished the video because i always watch youtube before bed and fall asleep often. the "wake up" call did in fact not wake me up 😂
You should watch Vertigo. It’s an old movie but super good. I’d love to hear that movie review 😂
I'm loving this series, and I enjoy longer videos. Don't stop! ❤
I have an idea...but not sure if you can. Youband Darman need to share an IP range or at least a DNS then you can open your world to LAN with cheats off then he can join on you. Your PC becomes the server
So much love for the longer videos. Watching you build and create worlds is inspiring. Thank you Skyes!!
I'm definitely in favour of you downloading the create mod, it would open more farm opportunities, thus more builds to do but also might not lag out your world as bad as the vanilla farm and storage methods. And it would be good for you to have a world where you can dedicate time to learning how to use the create mod in a world you would fear having a time limit.

I love the 2 and a half hour episodes more than the 1 and a half hour ones to be quite honest! Theyre quite fun.
On one side of the massive wall do like an aqueduct/hanging garden and on the other side do a total contrast with the sewer/death landscape. Will give purpose and aesthetics to the medieval castle theme.
hey skyes you should let darman play with you sometimes and i saw you mentioned horror and i would love to see you play a scary game like phasmophobia i think it be great content watching you get scared like hell
Him: “Do I have anymore barrels?..😮I do!”
Me: 😮 he does!
Your videos are way too interesting to play in the background. When i do massive tasks, it takes me twice as long when im watching your videos.
it’s 5:30am in australia and i haven’t slept, and im definitely not going to now 😌 (also no intro feels a lot more comfortable 🤍🤍)
in poland it's 11:30pm and i was just going to bed, but it turns out i'm not going to like you 😭😭
I prefer the longer videos because I listen to is as a pod cast while at work and then I go home and actually watch the video. Not gonna lie your voice is soothing and makes me less angry at work.
Yeeeeey yeeeeeey yeeeeey yeeeey

You can always put carpet in the pathways to make it have more contrast and more diversity between the stone, dirt, and leafs.
I think for the upper court yard, you could round it off/ mirror it at the other end where the trading hall will be. And maybe have a pond on one or both sides. Oh, and you could use the re widening of the pathway to make a small path around the trading hall.
20:13 had me choking on my drink lol xx Loving the video so far xx

watching skyes try to jump on those chests 10,000 times was an absolute joy 😭
i get so excited every time i get the notification of your uploads. best time of the week
"Something a minecraft youtuber has never said before" lmao
I clean and watch your videos, so yes Skyes we do stuff while we watch your videos.
Plus have to support the Darman Revolution!!
It would be so cool if you build a villager Town under that and close it up with colored glass. By the way I'm loving this series.
2 1/2 hrs. I love watching it as long as I can before I fall asleep and going back to it multiple times. Love your movies. AND your builds. XO Princess Leah
for the roof on the lower courtyard, you should make a giant glass dome, I love this build it looks so cool
SKEWS UPDATED LETS GO, also you could add like mossy and cracked block variants
Thank you for posting today! I really needed it.
For the empty grass areas on lower courtyard, use bone meal to do the tall grass and flowers that way it’s there but you can still see off
I like the intros being a moments from the rest of the video. But I don't really care about it that much, either way is fine. ^^
As long as Skews will be yapping, which we know he will, I will love it.
Hey sky’s you should add a river through the upper and make a water fall going off the upper to the lower.
I don’t know if this works or not but you might be able to put sweet berry bushes in front of your stairways of the the build and cover them with carpet. That way Villagers wouldn’t walk over them so they could walk around the courtyard but not leave the castle.
Skews if you want to make villagers stop at any point, segment the areas youd like to let them roam with carpets. I BELIEVE they can't walk over them
For co-op on modded java, Essential is a mod that allows you to play multiplayer & invite your friends to worlds, so you should look into that!!
Only 1:20?😢 Definitely like the longer uploads 😊 would love to see you build the castle in one sitting. ( I understand that might be a little to much 😂) but yes 2-3 hours ❤️ love that.

Wont lie, i looove the very long videos. Its fun for me to watch
Skews don’t want to burden us with all the long videos, little does he know if he post 6 hour episodes I’ll still binge watch them, but jokes aside love all the content ❤ probs to skews and Darman
I actually watch your videos while building or mining in my own Minecraft world! :D
Hey Skyes about that villager trading with respect to biome thingy, it’s in experimental stage only they didn’t announced anything about adding it to the main game yet. So we are kinda safe. (I prefer video time to be 1:30 hours, but I can hear you yap for even more if you want that’s your wish😊)

Also, love the videos! Keep up the good grind man
For the mega portal build you should do the giant tree from avatar 😂☝️
in the long skinny section in the lower part, do beds for like tanning beds to lookout and view the land, and put flowers in the smaller 2 parts. in the top part do farms and a few trees! just my opinion
1:17:44 The villager trading thing is an experimental thing that’s automatically off and you can turn on if you wish
41:27 😂 He is the bealder that why
The roof maybe a tuff or deepslate with a giant glass window could be cool!
Sooooo happy to watch your video while relaxing
2 hours are not enough.. we need more..MOREEE 😂
I love how you ask if we put on your videos and then dig a whole cause I’m
watching your video while going AFK so I can build a sorting system for when I’m done mining a 100x100 hole in this world 😂😂😂
i find it so funny that I think the build is already too big and then skyes just go and make it even bigger
1:02:04 it seems I should keep watching the video when I have ideas because every time I say something as a suggestion, you say the same exact thing, like, a minute later. XD
“Hello (insert skyes fandom name here) and welcome back to the mid evil Minecraft survival series” “today will will be doing/ continuing (task/build/explore)
loving the skyes letterbox reviews
Skyes, I love how ur so funny and the editors are too. You’re so amazing. Keep up the good work.
59:45 I would widen the path at the end to round off the upper courtyard and give the doors more of a black market/stables theme.
Edit: I meant like how most Gothic/medieval castles in movies and shows have the entrance with stables on either side of the gate and a small market for people to get wares for travel that they may have forgotten or lost along their journey. Not the door itself being black market themed
In the lower court yard where the grass is u could make it a farm of sheep or cows instead of trees. It makes the middle tree look special (like an elder tree) or u could dig down with stairs and make a pool/hot tub
cherry blossom trees would look great up at the top courtyard bit. or t least that wood and leaves would look rlly pretty
For the travel you can always use lamas and just have a trail of them with a bunch of chest so you have a little more storage instead of running back and forth a 1000 times
1:06:34 you can use the underground space for catacombs and secret archives
Skyes you took all the smooth stone when you first raided the villages 😂
i don’t know if you’ve watched it but a good movie is damsel it’s a new movie based in medieval times i think you’d like it
Dude I want a Skyes and ForgeLabs collaboration so badd, love seeing them both build and survive in minecraft
A good show to watch is "24" a 2001 TV show about counter terrorism
I like both ways...so whichever intro you choose is cool.
Purpel bealding with black and red, donky name cloud 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 love this serie
Hey skyes, entrance stairs looks too steep. You can try to use slabs to make a curve.
For the grassy parts I think you should use cherry trees the particles will add to the ambiance
Skyes is the only person that can make a mistake then learn from it to make the same mistake. 😂 all love
