Etho in your new tree farm rather than shielding the mud, just have a layer of water in the bottom of the farm and plant the propagules in it. That way the TNT won't blow up the bottom of the farm.
That's a great idea! I'll give it a try.
Wow. Legend!
Omg etho responded
you have been solidified as a historical figure
@@EthosLab you could also try having some sticky pistons pull the mud down to allow a protective layer of water to flow over it from the sides
I like the 'Cold Open' intros Etho does sometimes, when he starts off with a mini montage or something goofy happening in game. a good example for this episode could have been the weird baby piglin with his netherrack lol, sort of sets the tone. Though I realise coming up with goofy stuff all the time gets exhausting, and really, I personally just hope Etho can do what he likes for each video and keeps it fresh for himself.
I think it's been said before, but Etho's videos are like this alternate world that feels very comfortable to me, and that wont change if it's "Whats up" or whatever he feels like that day.
Ya and also… the word cringe is kinda cringe. Most of the time I hardly even notice his intros, unless there something interesting, but to call them cringe just feels misplaced. At worst they’re boring, and other wise the uninteresting intros just feel like a Segway into the video, nothing more or less. While the comment seamed like it wasn’t trying to be mean or offensive, it came off very condescending almost.
nah, I hate to watch a clip that I will see anyway later into the video. Just a nice "hello everybody" is perfect. It's the rest of the video that's the main point to watch, not the intro.
the first etho video I watched was one where he was playing around with block gravity mechanics in a creative world and then did a smooth transition through a hole in the ground into the mancave… I don't expect him to come up with a wacky intro every time but it is memorable when he does! maybe some more experimenting-with-mechanics openings would be cool?
Hey Etho, it's guys...
...
When are we getting Sally Face part 2? Are ya holdin' out on us?
Yeah as long as there is never a yelling, dubstep-filled intro with a 20 second unnecessary animation we good etho
22:00 Both is great. A "What's up guys" does the job just fine, and some fancy intro from time to time if you ever feel like it is great too :D
The "yo mama" joke intros were always S-Tier too
@@Jackstermax I loved all the random transitions with "yo mama" jokes... The chat message that just fades away as the new shot starts. The pickaxe named "yo mama" in Latin. Etho is such a great character!
I love the intro just the way it is.
Be yourself, it's why a lot of us watch 😀
“Hey everybody, this is Etho. Welcome back to another episode here on the let’s play series!” Has be one of my favorite things to hear for coming up on 10 years now.
Right, Its the best thing to hear in a video :)
I can’t disagree.
Best. Thing. Ever.
I like the "What's up guys". Changing things up every once in a while is good so things don't get stale but if it happens all the time then it just becomes like random noise.
It's nice that there's some consistency so I know when I see a new video that I'll probably enjoy it as much as the other ones
I do miss General Spass, he was fun ^^
the "Go get your snacks" variants were really cool back then, but I agree with you 100%,
To me, the "helloooo everybody" is kind of comforting? It's very relaxing to sit down with an Etho episode, because I know whatever you end up doing that day, I'm gonna enjoy it. The intro exudes familiarity and comfort, but you also break it up just enough that it keeps the excitement there. Maybe I'm just getting old ^^" but it's nice to know I can expect fun and the same 'ole Etho I've always know when sitting down with one of your videos.
Thanks for the upload Etho!! Loved the episode 😊💜
Yeah I find that intro very comforting as well! Honestly any of his intros are all just calming, comforting, or goofy, and it's not like a whack in your face surprise attack that most youtubers do
it’s so friendly sounding and it feels like we’re just picking up where we left off with the last episode, which is nice. long or over the top intros feel like they should be reserved for beginning something new
@@silverxpanda5852 yes!! Ethos videos are like curling up in front of a warm fire on a cold night with a cup of hot cocoa. It's warming, inviting, comforting, and familiar. His intro is like the fuzzy blanket we wrap ourselves in, sure we usually grab the same one, but we keep it the same for a reason. It's homely and very Etho. When we click on an Etho video we know we're getting Etho and his intro is HIM. It's our little introduction to who the slabman is himself, and he's a sweet, welcoming person!
"Now I'm trying to be a little more true to myself." [Yourself] is what we love. Thank you for being you. Thank you for the many years of great content. Here is, to many more adventures had~!
Exactly. We watch Etho because of Etho. One of the Content creators whose general vibe just makes the video, not a certain intro or anything.
I've never minded the calming down of intros, we all started watching you as a kid etho but now we all still watch you and are adults so I'd say it's a completely normal way to look at it. What I have been missing though are the creative transitions, for example where you box yourself up in a 1x2 then break the blocks into the next scene and so on. Regardless always love the content!
Yesssss, this needs more likes🙏
Never forget the most epic transitions Etho had ever used; the Star Wipe
Agreed!
Or the "_____ bamboo" of the hermit S7 days. Probably a little easier to edit too. I know he's mentioned in another comments of the day that the custom note block transition music was really time consuming (and not technically legal).
I find that calm sounding RUclipsrs last longer in my subscriptions list
I love “Hello everybody this is Etho!” Intros. They’ve become iconic at this point.
"What's up everybody, this is Etho and welcome back to another episode" is such a statement intro! For me, watching your videos for so many years, these words are so meaningful, I'll never wish for you to change them!
What I also loved is the noteblocks music section. I really hope that you can bring that back! It was very entertaining, setting up a cheerful mood for the whole episode!
Keep up the good work!
Im pretty sure he talked about why he cant do them anymore. I dont remember exactly but i think it was because of DMCA stuff from youtube because you know corporate greed is cool.
@@Amplefii it was basically that all the fun songs for him to convert into noteblocks are copyrighted and so it was causing issues. (He explained it at the start of Hermitcraft S8)
I personally enjoy your intro's Etho and respectfully disagree with the comment in your video. I say continue being yourself because that's one of the many reasons I enjoy watching you. Thanks for past, present, and future videos! Hope you are doing well! P.S. I admit I am one of the (much) older viewers of your content lol.
though i do feel nostalgic for - get your snacks. i still go get snacks if i can when watching him
I think there was some copyright issues that made him stop along with maxing out the capabilities of the note blocks
As a 38 year old mother of 2 who watches every single one of your episodes, I'm a big fan of a cheerful what up guys! It puts me in the zone. X
Ur a cool mom!!!
@jaz angeles lol
Same here! My son got me into Etho I love how creative he is!
*_Etho about the wither skelly farm:_* They did make some changes to light levels of wither skeletons spawning, they spawn in *_light level 11_* and under now.
After the 1.18 change to prevent mobs spawning in any light level other than light level 0 they reversed these changes in 1.19 for some nether mobs because it made the nether too easy. The light level value they chose for these nether mobs including wither skeletons is light level 11 and lower instead of the old 7 and lower so this is probably what is breaking your farm Etho.
Well said
Thumbs up for you in the hope Ethos sees this, (though he will prolly see a comment like this a good 10 times…)
"You can be a *little more specific* when *blowing up* the trees."
Classic Etho energy.
Regarding the intro, honestly I've just always loved you doing whatever it is you want to do! I've never once found "hey guys" cringe or whatever... Besides, the occasional change up when inspired just makes those more special and attention grabbing when you want to add a little lore or something to the series :D
Agreed. The best thing about Etho is him doing what he enjoys, rather than doing what he thinks other people will like.
@@AnotherDuck and by that, he is doing exactly what other people (us) like. It comes full circle, in the best of ways.
@@nolansprojects2840 The best quality most content creators can have is enjoying what they do. There's nothing as much of a downer as having someone clearly not liking what they do and just doing it for views.
I'm still getting my snacks whenever Etho posts a new video, and I'm already 32 by now, haha. I'm around because Etho is Etho, the videos are the best either way!
Oh ya!!!!!!!
"Get your snacks!" and i make some popcorn.
"I'm around because Etho is Etho" just summed up why I'm still here watching lol, you nailed it!
@@clarkemaxwell2067 Yup! I don't watch Minecraft videos anymore, but I'm certain to pop in every once in a while and catch up on Etho's Let's Play for that very reason.
I just had a revelation as to why I love Etho’s content so much, besides nearly a decade’s worth of accumulated nostalgia. Its *cozy.* Relaxing. Comforting. Its like a comfort food for the mind. Whenever life happens, and things get crazy, Etho is always there to make things alright again for just a bit.
Absolutely right.
Etho, you've been making consistently good videos for almost 12 years now my dude. What works works.
I was 16 when I first started watching you back in summer 2011, now I'll be 28 soon. You've got a formula that works for you and your much wider audience.
Seeing your old base in the intro always makes me nostalgic….
As much as I miss those days I’m glad you and minecraft have gone so far.
They are soul mates.
I personally really enjoy the chill "what's up guys?" style of intro. It makes me feel like I'm sitting down with a friend to just play Minecraft amd have some fun. Keep doing what feels right to you Etho.
I’m now considered the “older viewer” as I’ve been here since episode 20 of your original let’s play world and I’ve come to love the “what’s up everybody this is etho and welcome back to another episode!” Your content is fantastic and you have definitely become the RUclipsr I will drop everything for to watch. I love your videos and I’m glad your back! Hope all is well Etho!
As an older viewer I like your casual 'whats up guys'. I also really like how every so often you have a strange opening which is funny to watch. But most of the time, it's relaxing just to tune into you not yelling in our ears or 'leave a like and subscribe' and all that. But maybe I'm just getting old and find that stuff jarring.
The ender dragon head area looks soooo good now, love the look and sounds that it makes. Super eery and a good way to show off the new sensors with (what I imagine to be) minimum redstone work. Well done ergo!
I cant not believe he went back to this project. I thought it was forever forgotten. It was one of my favorite ideas and be finally did some work on it. Etho is the GOAT
@@rgold4 I didn't even remember this project and I've been an avid fan for ten years. When the hell did he make it?
Hey Etho,
I like the "what's going on everybody" intros and don't think they are cringy. I also love the silly intros, but I think if you tried to make every intro a silly intro they might start to feel forced.
Keep up the great work!
The words "hello everybody, this is etho!" Are forever etched into my mind. And I'm perfectly fine with that.
Etho I'm 26 consistently watching every video you post. I appreciate the intros and your personality. I think anything else would seem forced at this point. What's up guys and "hey everybody" is iconic Etho to me
Also for the longest time he quit doing "get your snacks" and I'm glad it returned recently.
I love how I can't read "hey everybody" without Etho's voice
I've been watching Etho videos for 10+ years now, and to me the entire charm of some of the silly intros was that it came out of left field. It's not that I view the channel as overly serious, but I appreciate the subtlety of humor and having the variety. To be honest, above all I'm just glad Etho is still making videos and has kept the passion alive and community growing all this time. It's a real source of comfort to me and I know I'm not alone in feeling that way.
Honestly it’s crazy how consistent the community has been. Such a joy to read the comments. You don’t see this too often these days.
Etho, I cannot believe how many projects you have finished in your let's play world!
You finish so many projects all the time it's incredible!
How do you do it?
You know, you should take it easy, don't worry about finishing projects because you've done so many.
Also, I wanted to ask how did you make those finished projects walk around sandy city?
Congrats, Etho heart xD
Whoah thanks Etho! Also your videos are great I don't mind whatever you do for your greeting
See you in the comment of the day for the next episode 👍
@@turbosoggy5412 as if she won the golden ticket for willy wonka hahahhaha
"how did you make those finished projects walk around sandy city?" 😂😂
Etho: gets shot at a million times from pillagers
Also etho: oh yeah I found a really weird bug *looks like a porcupine*
It's so weird that Etho has literally been with me all my life. I've watched every single episode from start to finish even though I lost interest in gaming as a whole years ago. Love you man
I think that's the vast majority of his older viewers. I got a job and family to be responsible for. But when Etho uploads I make some popcorn and forget about everything for a few minutes.
literally starting watching him when i was 12 now im 22
Ive also been watching etho my entire life ive rewatched everything at least four times, he honestly has a special place with me.
@@markm0000 It's so funny how that works and it's even weirder because I don't think anyone else would understand
@@Plasmaaa etho is somehow one of the rare creators who actually managed to build a long lasting community
"These trees really branch out"
Good pun, Etho. Good pun. 😂
This episode was actually my favorite in a long time, and i appreciated that you split things up and tried something I’ve not yet seen. I’ve always loved that aspect of the let’s play, and I’m glad you’re able to sit down and play video games again :)
Yes
I don't care much about the introductions at all. It doesn't really matter to me. I just want who I'm watching to be themselves, so you do you etho! We're just glad to have you back.
Be true to yourself Etho, I love both, the "what's up guys" is great and the other "unique" intros are good spice every once in a while, too much spice doesn't taste as good as just the right amount👍
Yeah, either way its classic Etho. What's up guys works just fine as a generic thing, but every once in a while something a bit different is nice to see Etho's full creativity at work.
@Hermann[best channel] keep yourself safe
@@StuffandThings_ Agreed 100%
Relatively new to your youtube videos but I really enjoy watching them. I think what most people enjoy about your videos are that they just seem so authentically you. Carry on making your videos how you wanna make them and intro them how you feel like it because they are genuine and I believe thats what attracts most people to your channel
I like your "What's up guys". It's familiar and friendly and I know I'm in for a cool 20 minutes of escapism with my favourite MCYT. Keep being you Etho, it's what we love
^^^
I love your “what’s up guys” or the fantastic “hey everybody! “ Etho is the best 😂
Honestly, the "what's up" is a perfectly fine intro, seamless sitting in for a good time. I've definitely laughed and grinned at some of the more special intros though, so if you've got the idea for it, I'd say run with it still.
(They have definitely changed light level spawns for Wither skeletons, among other nether mobs. There was an issue with endermen not spawning in the warped forest because of the light levels I think)
And they wanted it to be harder to spawnproof Nether fortresses. I actually thought it was impossible to stop them spawning, but someone said light level 11 is the Wither skeleton spawn level
I think you’re right Etho I started watching you when I was 12 and now I’m 22 a lot of your fan base has grown up with you and don’t find any of it cringe still get excited to watch your videos after 10 years
Etho’s been killing it with the uploads!
Quite literally indeed.
Agreed
@@MohmmadSamii like he never left XD
Half a million? He should be getting more than mumbo grian and scar combined.
I was so worried we weren’t gonna get anything from our fave guy
I love the "what's up guys" intro, it's short and welcoming feeling. It gets into the fun and interesting video. I watch you Etho because you're more chill and laid back than a lot of other RUclipsrs. I think you've changed your style as you've become more comfortable on camera, and also as you've become aware that your audience is typically an older demographic.
I've been watching for 10+ years. When I was in my young teens, the General Spaz stuff was hysterical, and in my later teens, the random quirky stuff was interesting and funny. Now in my mod-20's, I go to Etho episodes to chill out after a hard day at work or a stressful week of adulting.
But you do you Etho, I'll watch no matter what :)
A new Etho LP episode is always a good day
lol notif squad, I said the exact same thing!😂😂
always
True Story
It’s so neat that so many who used to watch etho never stopped watching him and his content has moved with his age group
OMG YESSS I just sat down to eat!
Etho, you have been a constant in my life for the last nearly 10 years (i honestly dont even remember when I started watching but you were one of the first MC youtubers I watched). Through the best and worst days of my life, you have been there for me. I have watched so many of your series multiple times. Thank you Etho, you mean more to me than you can imagine
He means a lot to all of us
I want to remind everyone that there's no telling what the actual human "etho" behind the computer is like outside of the bits he selects to put on video for us to see, i love the happiness this content brings to you but i would maybe suggest watching some videos about parasocial relationships x
I personally appreciate the quick “what’s up guys”, it’s become a Etho thing. Plus it’s not just a boring “what’s up” roll film because it’s usually followed by a joke or an update about progress made in the series. When there is a more unique intro it’s a special treat, that requires some level of repetition.
I love that the world kinda functions as a changelog because of its history. Don't know if it actually could work as a formal bug checking tool but it's interesting to see how "insignificant" changes actually pan out over time.
Something about your singleplayer series feels so nostalgic to me. I haven’t played Minecraft in years, I’m in my mid 20s with a career, but yet I still find myself watching your videos as a fan of ~10 years. I know you’re an incredibly humble dude and you just enjoy playing games but you’re a mainstay in a lot of peoples lives brother. One love
Wither skeletons now spawn with 11 light level!
I really love when you say “hey guys this is etho”
Yeah
I really enjoyed all your experimenting with 1.19 logs, bogs, and frogs today. Love how you show your trial and error work. I learned lots and it encourages me to try new things in my world.
your intros are not cringe, that comment is the 0.0000001% minority. Ignore it, your intros are perfect as they are. You are the perfect youtuber/content creator, please dont change, i know you wont/dont want to and that makes me very happy that (unless for unforseen circumstances) you will continue to make videos, and i will continue to watch them as i have done for over a decade. Never change xx
The what's up guys is super comforting for me, like I hear that and instantly I know the next half hour to hour is just gonna be great and I relax straight away.
It's always fun when a video starts with something different, like the noteblocks intros etc, but it's nice because they feel organic and in line with what's been interesting to you at the time.
I like the mix of intros! “What’s up guys” is really chill but also some spice every once in awhile is exciting!
I love the short 'what's up guys'. Nothing else needed to get my attention. The content speaks for itself
A new etho episode is always welcome at any time!
Personally, I'm the type that loves a steady intro. It makes it feel warm and welcoming. Like coming back home after a weekend abroad. You've seen it a million times, you've perhaps even stopped noticing it, but it always gives you a feeling of coziness as if you've sat down with a cup of hot coco in front of the fire.
Yours and Keralis' videos give me this feeling more than any others.
11:15 Yeah I think that was a change.
If I remember correctly , in one of the last 1.19 snapshots or pre releases they changed wither skelletons to be able to spawn at higher light levels.
I hadn't even noticed the intros being the same/more chill. Though I have always enjoyed the quirkiness too (and I was already an adult when I started watching 9 years ago haha).
When there are more interesting/quirky intros now, to me they stand out and are more humorous because they're less expected!
I've never had an issue with your intros, I'm just happy to watch another video from my favourite content creator!
I think all of us older viewers would absolutely die for at least 1 final appearance for general spaz. Maybe a send off or something
I love the current introductions. It's part of your signature in your videos. You do change it up when you have something fun (Note block music, When X's Squid farm started dumping squid out your nether portal in HC Season 7)
"Hey Everybody!" in your voice is so iconic and kind and fun. I know it's going to be a good day when I hear that. Thanks a bunch Etho!
Nah man, I love the chill vibes of “hello everybody!” because etho is a chill guy. Joel has mastered the art of the unique intro anyways
Personally I love the quick “What’s up guys” It was pretty cool to see the different intros you’d do to transition into the video but i think we can all agree, it’s much easier to keep things simple haha.
I’m 28 and have been watching you for 10+ years and I love the quirky intros yet also love the “hey what’s up guys” intros! Do what ever feels natural to you at the time man!
Hi Etho, I hope you're well I really enjoyed this episode, honestly I don't care either way what you decide to do for your intros I'm so hyped for an Etho episode that I'm just happy when you're happy! Do whatever makes you comfortable and happy we'll be here to watch and have fun with you.
Exactly my thinking, Etho is more than entertaining enough without the act. I'm perfectly happy with Etho just being himself
Same! As long as Etho's enjoying, I'll enjoy the video too along the way, y'know. Kinda don't care if he does a 20 minute intro or just a simple one. Either way, we're here for Etho anyways.
I've been watching your videos for many many years now, and I guess I consider myself an "older viewer" at this point. However, I love the "quirky" intros. They make me feel nostalgic and young again. But a simple "helloo everyone" is enough to cheer me up after a long day.
In 1.19 pre-release 1 they made endermen, wither squeletons, piglins and other mobs be able to spawn in the nether at light level 11 or lower, so that why your lava dosen't work. And they also said in the future they want to disable mobs spawning in nether portal blocks.
Having a standard intro is honestly really comforting! It's a joy to see you've posted, and whenever you may decide to do a different kind of intro it makes it even more special :) As someone who used to, most people worried about cringe are just projecting anxiety. Be you, we all clearly love it!
Etho - "Grab your snacks everyone!"
Me - *Get a whole course meal*
Hearing your intro is my favorite thing to hear. Just a simple, What's up guys. Been a long time watcher, episode 20ish. Now 21 years old. Keep up the good work and good work on your builds 😁❤️
Woohoo getting my snacks!!!!! Etho, I've been watching you since I was 13 years old in 2011 and still enjoy your content. Thanks for still uploading video's.
Ayyy!! I started watching Etho in 2011 while also being 13! Are you 23 bro??
@@MaxNoMillion Yeah mate, will turn 24 in a few weeks. Crazy how I still like him, even though I've grown up.
Same here. Etho is a constant!
Gen X here...what’s up guys works for me!! Can’t wait to try this farm. I’ve been trying to figure out how to take over an entire bastion, and now I don’t have to...blessed my entire day, Etho. Thanks. ❤️
Starting watching in my early-mid teenage years. I'm now in my twenties. I enjoy that your content has grown up with us, sure you recognized in the past with Minecraft and such their was a lot of kids/younger people, but at this point many of your audience have grown out of some of the 'quirky' stuff you did for them, so its really nice to see you relax your approach and be true to how you feel/act.
My favorite etho opener is: “hey hey how’s it goin everybody it’s etho”
hey etho!
just want to say thank you for the content today. I hurt my back today so watching this made me feel better. As for your intros-- I think they are perfectly fine the way they are. I like that you stay true to yourself. I think that is one of your biggest appeals and why I have stuck around so long. Keep doing you and keep making your own content at your own pace.
Thank you and have a wonderful day.
The quirky intros were fun, but your camera trick transitions were always my favorite. Love you Etho! So glad you’re back to making videos.
I love the chill “what’s up guys” it fills me with joy
You do you, Etho. I’m just glad you’re able to enjoy gaming, again, and sharing that with us.
Always brings a smile to my face when i get that notification! You’ve been on a role lately, so much content, i know you took a much needed break but don’t sacrifice your enjoyment of the game for us!
I've grown up watching your videos and as I get older I agree that the simple what's up is a good way to get into the video however sometimes a funny song or quick montage can really add a fun spark to the occasional video as long as it's fitting and what you want to do with the episode. We come for the creativity and the "Etho" of it all. Whatever you choose to do just be authentic and we will enjoy it.
I have grown up watching Etho and honestly I love the relaxed: "whats up guys" intro. Watching your videos is always a blast and I enjoy it when you are true to yourself! Keep up the great work!
I've been watching your videos for the last 11 years, I've seen you change things up a hundred times, and I'm completely fine with the current "What's up guys". Honestly hadn't even thought about it till you mentioned it. Keep doing what works for you!
I love the low-key hellos, however you do them. Mixing it up from time to time is fun but it should feel natural, and I'd take repetitive/classic over something forced and not in the usual spirit of things.
Been watching for over a decade, and the only RUclipsr I watch with any regularity. Keep at it! :)
I'm a fan of your intros! I find them very chill and friendly. All your content is my fav and I get zero cringe from any of it. Currently rewatching your 7 year old modded series and it all still holds up great. A++ work as far as I'm concerned
It’s insane for me to thing after watching this series for years that I’m 30 more episodes we’ll get to 600 that’s just insane to me amazing work etho
2 years away I'd say haha
11 years of etho plays. Gotta love it ❤️
Yeah much like the others "Helllooooo everybody" or "Whatsup everybody" intros are always a indicator of a relaxing and fun video. Never have I thought about your intros needing to be more specific and having fun will make or break a video
Personally, I like it when you're in the middle of something at the beginning of an episode, like building or fighting, and then you do a calm 'what's' up' intro
This episode could not have been uploaded at a better time for me. Thanks as always Etho!
I did the exact same thing the first time I encountered the frog eggs! Glad that I’m not the only one. And as someone who has been watching for around a decade the normal intros are great. And when you have a different one it’s also fun. Keep doing what you’re doing
I agree with you Etho, keep being true to yourself!
I just like when the episide starts because I know it'll be a good one. All the intros are good. Although I do enjoy the "what's up guys?" because it doesn't have a pretence, it's relaxed in that way
that is such a neat way to transport the frogs to the farm! I'm definitely gonna try that when I set up my froglight farm
As for the intro, I don't mind quick intros! I think it's better to only do a "quirky" intro when you really feel it, and I appreciate those as well- in fact, I think they're even better when you don't expect them every time
usual spirit of things. Been watching for over a decade, and the only RUclipsr I watch with any regularity. Keep at it! :)
this episode's outro made me realize i now enter in the "older people" category, anyways what a great video Ergo! planning on building your froglight farm in my world
I love your "what's up guys!" It's warm and comforting, and it's You. I know I'm in for a good time when I hear your intros no matter how you start them :D
Great way to start the month, with an Etho LP!
I'm in my late 20s and I appreciate everything that is part of your aesthetic. I've watched Minecraft RUclips for a decade now, and the only creators I still watch as an adult are you and Xisuma. I appreciate the humble, natural, authentic tone of your videos. I'm not a kid who needs constant loud noises and goofiness to keep me simulated, I just a appreciate sitting down and hearing an adult talk about something that makes them passionate and creative. I like watching woodworking videos for the exact same reason I like Etho videos. Thank you for your contribution to the community, there's only one Etho
Cool idea for the dragon statue: Turn it into a ruin. Put vines and cracked stone mess up the path and maybe drop one of the the dragon heads on the ground to make it look like it fell. Put candles and or lanterns. And block off the entrance. But keep it working with the lights and all, it'll look like a secret group it keeping it alive.
Adding a few candles and vines would be just right for this vibe
Etho, I think what you're doing with your intros currently is great, it's nice to have a greeting when I open the video, but it doesn't need to be some super-high-effort unique-for-every-episode ordeal, a simple "what's up guys" is perfect and I think it matches the vibe of the rest of the video (just hanging out, playing Minecraft and having fun).
Always a good day when Etho uploads!
