@@impandskizzpodcast you should do a podcast with Grian and one with doc and also you should do a inperson hermit meetup or a bourdgames stream. I love what you do and keep it up
He has done guitar videos, he's just wearing a scream mask. And one time he did a reveal and took off the mask...to reveal...another mask! And then did it again! So he is a man who owns three scream masks
I thought it was gonna be like a Russian nesting doll.. after the helmet, is an Axolotl helmet, ravager helmet, bee helmet, turtle... let just say, Turtles all the way down
Petition to have DocM77 be the next guest on ze podcast! Hearing how he helped accidentally kick-start both Impulse's and X's channels makes me want to hear how he got started!
Would love to see Docm on the podcast and hear his take on the youtube meta and his reasoning behind the long video format he uses. Fan art would be a great topic as well
Makes me so happy to hear X say that he thinks its more about them as a group rather then the game minecraft. This is something i feel many off the HC group doesnt really think yet, but absolutly is. they say sorry if they dont do these BIG projects in every episode, while my favorit moments is just watching them standing around and have fun togheter!
YES i absolutely agree! I think that's also part of the reason why the TCG and Decked Out have been such big hits. Obviously they're great games by themselves with amazing concepts and executions, but the fun interactions between hermits that happened while playing or waiting to play were the real treat for me! :) it's just so nice and cozy to watch them just hang out and have fun without stressing about big projects they want to finish. 😊
I'm in the same boat! Those times where they're messing around and having good laughs with one another tend to be some of the most enjoyable moments. As Marie mentioned, the waiting room for Decked Out perfectly illustrates that idea, showcasing how the chemistry between everyone results in the creation of very naturally funny and interesting interactions.
YES A PODCAST WITH A FACELESS GUEST! This gives me hope that one day you guys will do a podcast with etho. It would also be really funny if rather than a picture of the avatar, it was a video feed of them playing minecraft in f5 mode
I'd love a poddie with Etho, not because of his prowess in redstone or history with MC, but because the man is genuinely interesting. You never know what you'll hear when he gets in the mood.
I think what X calls "growing into it" is similar to "you're never going to be ready, you just have to start". I love that Skizz talks about career instead of a job. Have been waiting to hear a conversation with X and Skizz for a long time and I love it!
This is addressing the conversation about the Hermitcraft community. I was in the hospital last year with my second brain tumor surgery (sounds awful, but I'm good), and my husband and I were watching a Grian video. A nurse came in and we paused it, but he had heard a little and asked, in a bit of a strange tone, what we were watching. We said we were watching a Minecraft RUclipsr, and he wanted to know specifically which one. When we said "Grian" he said "I love Grian!" He said he got into Hermitcraft watching it with his niece and nephew but now he just watches it anyway. So it's a small Hermit world, with a big community :)
X hit the nail on the head. I found Hermitcraft during the pandemic. I watch you all (and, yes, I’m including Skizz) for who you are, your personalities, your interactions with each other and your communities. You’ve built an amazing community that I feel comfortable hanging out with. I love how I recognize the same viewer names in every Hermits’ chats. It is also why we watch other streams and videos beside Minecraft-I’m loving Phasmo and the Brain Teaser games X plays. Also, X’s avatar or a human Imp or Skizz, they are all just avatars. You are on a 2D screen and I probably won’t meet any of you-it’s your personalities that we connect with. Can’t wait until next week!! Thanks!
I haven't even watched Hermitcraft for a year yet, but I got into watching Minecraft in general thanks to it, and it's helped me through such a rough year when it comes to health. ❤
I just got newfound admiration for X as he told the story of DocM giving him a shout in one of his videos. Because I once sent an idea to X and completely unexpected, he gave me a shout out. I realise now the he was paying forward his own positive experience. What a great gesture, and what a great podcast. Please keep the good vibes rolling!
He certainly deserves it. And we would love it. Hearing how he talks about his job though, I feel like he won’t commit full time until he knows his kids are completely taken care of financially
Impulse : do not be unhappy about you aging. People who have been following you aged too and you just legitimate their love for a "younger" activity. I'm 47, and seeing you guys makes me less uncomfortable about playing games all the time ^^ And younger people seeing you for the first time? Gosh, I bet they'd love to have a dad like you. Xisuma : for all the privacy you keep, hiding who you legally are, you're probably the most open person out there : you talk about your feelings, your hardships, and it's always so heartfelt, and so deep, it makes me emotional. Thank you. Skizz? You're a compass to those guys, to understanding them : you are one of us, a watcher, a fan, even if you're a content creator yourself. You're a bit like Pixlriffs, outside the box, but with eyes on it and in it. And I really hope one day you get the joy to join that HC crew, even for just a short time. As for Hermitcraft reaching the bottom of the barrel? Dudes... really? This season is one of the most amazing ever! You guys have been brimming with creativity, and even if it's not the first time, it's bigger, better, cuter, more, just more. So much happened, so many stories were told, so many castles were built, so many monsters were slain, so many obstacles were vanquished. You all make our days happier. Please don't stop.
I 100% agree with X. I have not played Minecraft since Caves and Cliffs. Doesn’t really interest me in playing anymore. But I watch hermitcraft every week. Impulse, Mumbo, Scar, Grian, RenDog, Tango, Etho, every video. It’s almost borderline parasocial disorder 😅
I started watching in Season 6 because my son got into Minecraft - he has moved on, but I still love Hermitcraft, and it is all about the silliness, friendships and interaction between the hermits that make it entertaining. I really don't care about mega bases and super farms!
I learned social part of English language thanks to hermitcraft. Watching and listening how actually people talk was big deal. And Hermits are the best in that because how friendly and kind they are. I haven't come across better place to take lessons from.
Petition to have BdoubleO on the Podcast! I absolutely love how you ask the guests about their creative journeys and allow us to understand who they are as people and how they got to what we see in videos.. it's very inspiring and eye opening!
I think X's analysis on how the Hermitcraft "Community" has evolved (especially through the pandemic) is 100% spot on. I view the server so differently now than I did in the past. In the past, I saw it as a shared space for individual creativity (everyone kind of does what they want on their own terms, very little collaboration). I think there were two major catalysts for this: 1.) When Grian joined, a massive fanbase that didn't really overlap that much with Hermitcraft flooded all to content creators in this space. 2.) Season 8 (While it may not be everyone's favorite), in my opinion, it opened all the Hermit's eyes to a whole new way of producing content: As a community. Season 8 (with Boatem as a prime example) we saw collaboration on a scale that had never been done on Hermitcraft. Now in Season 9 with TCG and Decked Out, you are doing it all over again, creating a massive community behind you that is excited to watch all angles and long form (largely unedited) content. We all just want to know how you all react to the world, together. Kudos to all of you, GG, keep it up.
Season 7 had a huge mayor campaign and the whole mycelium resistance war, which I'd argue is collaboration on a scale way larger than Boatem ever was lol. And what about the civil war in season 6, team star vs g-team? We've had huge collaborations before. I'd argue what actually changed Hermitcraft was the introduction of proximity chat!
Wait, I just realized that since Impulse's real name is Scott, that means the Gem and the Scotts team from Secret life was actually made up of Gem and two Scotts. That's hilarious! 😂😂❤
9:20 I think I’ve said it before, but I’d love to have guests come back on the podcast to discuss with you like regular episodes. Not only would it be fun to hear their opinions on certain topics (or listen to the stories you bring up), but it would also give you an opportunity to bring your guests back after the initial “interview” episode.
Awwe you broke Xisuma ♥ But it was nice to hear this Hermitcraft rescue mission from someone else besides Xisuma himself. Because he downplays that part whenever someone asks in his streams so much, I didn't realise how big of a deal it actually was. So thank you and I am really looking forward to part 2! ☺
23:05 X really brought this home for me here. When you’re a creative person from the start, your world just feels so much bigger than what it actually is. These people generally have a hard time telling you what they want to be when you grow up because your aware that you could do anything. How chaotic to think about!
Really, really love hearing xisumavoid talk about stuff, and not just Minecraft. Watching his VODs where he goes on about different topics can be really enlightening. Heard him talk about his epiphany that led him to that attitude shift earlier in life, and how he stepped out of his comfort zone to take on the stewardship of Hermitcraft. Seeing how hard the RUclips grind can be for the other Hermits, you can really appreciate that kind of perspective.
Please don't apologize for being an older player. It is not just the young ones that play. I am now in my 60s and am so pleased that there is such an age range and so many role models out there.
X was so right when he said, 'You/he didn't see or know the heights that Hermitcraft would/has come to.' I started my Hermit journey when Ren joined the flock on S4. I had been watching Red since I first started MC in 2012. It was a huge turning point for me as a builder, watching him and then many other Hermits do their thing. You all have been such an inspiration to me and my building ability. I always make it a thing to hand one of you off to a friend to get hooked on the Hermits. I just sent a new viewer to your realm this week. They are binge watching now.
I think something that Xisuma said and resonated with me a lot is how the viewers gradually shift from watching minecraft to watching them. Despite the recent growth in minecraft content in the past few years (more SMP, speedruns, manhunt, mods, etc.), Hermitcraft had always been a constant in my life ever since I stumbled on their videos in season 6. When I want to watch something, I always go to them first, because now I associate a kind of funny and comforting feelings with their content. Big thank you for every videos you guys make, it's always joyful to see a new upload!
This season of hermitcraft has become my favorite so far. The sense of community is so strong, and the best moments haven’t been the builds (though those are amazing!) but instead it’s been these incredible moments between hermits. The conversations, the helping, the advice, and even the pranks have all just felt more… real, I guess? The vibe is fantastic, the atmosphere is uplifting, and every episode seems to exude joy and heart. I feel lucky to get to watch and experience it.
X talking about hermitcraft, sounds like anyone from the community talking about hc. He shares the same passion we feel towards this community. It was so sweet to hear him say what we have all been saying about the community they have built.
X seriously hit the nail on the head! We watch for you! If you don't enjoy something we feel it and see it! We love the collective that is HermitCraft! You guys are amazing please keep up what you love doing!
Omg!!! It's been so great to hear x speak, and just hear that happiness in his voice! It brings a good warmth to my chest! I'd love to know more about the poetry, but ahh, this was such a good episode of the podcast and thank you all so much!!
I started watching HC right at the beginning of S7 and it was a great retreat during that time. I found the entire situation disturbing, having a place to go for escape and positivity was amazing and I am forever grateful.
Honestly, Skizz saying he doesn't see his job as a "job" but rather goes for the sentiment of "I don't have a job, I have a career" Is genuinely such a good mindset It's made me feel so much more secure in my own freelance work to think of it that way, not a job but a career
Hermitcraft certainly kept me going during the pandemic after getting COVID and ending up in hospital my happy Place was watching All the Hermits and just escaping..Fun and Laughter You all kept it going..❤😷
I remember during the pandemic, y’all were a huge moral support for me. I was finishing nursing school and then hopping right into being a new nurse during the pandemic. It was so refreshing to come home and watch Hermitcraft, cause y’all NEVER talked about what was going on in the world. That was HUGE for me. Thank y’all ❤
The first video that showed up in my feed was Day 1 of season 8 of impulses. I was like what is this? Who are these people? I feel in love with the community from the hermits to the viewers. Having something so easy to watch and have a good laugh over the interactions. Has turned into a safe place for me. Also Impulse I truly want to thank you for creating this safe place for me to come in and know I will feel like I'm seen in a way that is different. Being someone who has struggled with making friends and figuring out how to move around this difficult world. Thank you 🙏
super late to this episode but i just HAD to say, in my experience it's the people who don't seek out leadership but step into it anyway when they can see it's necessary, who have exactly the kind of mindset that makes a good leader! glad you folks had X on, and wow really good to hear his perspective!!
This makes me proud to work with X directly, re-listening to his story from the begining resonates so much with my own story and gives me hope for sucess in the future, X is truly an amazing person even when you interact with him away from a camera, trust me, this was such a cool episode, X was my inspiration to press the record button and learn how to make a video, how to record, how to edit and that made me learn so many skills, honestly all thanks to this guy. I had never goten to watch the show but now i know i have a bunch of episodes to listen to! Thank you Imp and Skizz for the amazing content!
I would really like to see Etho at some point, he is such an amazing person and would probably be an amazing guest also ability to learn more about him that people that don't follow him for long time won't know, like how he was recognised by a kid or about how did he end up in hermitcraft
The conversation about needing to step into uncomfortable spaces and eventually growing into them really hits hard. I’m a college student, pre-vet, and working in clinics and screwing up is how you learn, but geez, talking to clients is not the most fun.
@@luissuazo3684 The internet really likes to make assumptions on how things work. I’m not a vet (yet). You’re not allowed to do things or make decisions that could end lives unless you’ve had all the training. I don’t. When I say “screw up” I mean “I got scratched up, now I know how to avoid that in the future,” “I messed up the order of the tests on the blood machine and it took five minutes longer than it should have but I’ll never do that again.” “I forgot to put a “refrigerate” sticker on that med, but it’s written on the packaging in five places and someone caught it before it went out, I’ll be sure to double-check in the future.” Besides, how entitled can you be? “I don’t want my service I’m paying for to decline.” Dude, people who you’re paying to do stuff are still PEOPLE. We didn’t pop up from the ground fully formed with all the knowledge we needed. We’re gonna mess up sometimes. We’re gonna have to learn. That’s how it works.
I know there is so much pressure to do face reveals, but I 100% agree that remaining anonymous is the best for content creators, if that’s what you wish to do. It allows you to not have to worry about always having to present yourself the way that your viewers see you, you can just be a person. I’m not sure if I’m explaining it right at all, but that’s my feel
Xisuma was the person who got me into Hermitcraft (back in Season 7) and online minecraft creators in the first place, really happy to listen to this and find out more about the history of a person I very much respect
If I can just be sappy -- Hermitcraft has really been a boon for me through some tough times. Everyone on Hermitcraft has a real vibe of friendship and camaraderie. And there's SO much negativity in the world right now, that seeing you all and how you come together is so peaceful and so inspiring. It's clear you all love each other so much, and that's so important. You've had a really beautiful impact on my life, all of you, and I can't express my thankfulness enough.
just the other day i was thinking about how i would love to see xisuma come on as a guest to the podcast. and then i woke up today to find that it indeed happened!! cant wait for next week for the part 2 ^-^
Xisuma’s privacy is something I agree with. When I was young people were told to never divulge much online. To see it completely flipped post social media is so alien to me.
25:00 I think we need to start looking at it not as a "real job" vs not, but more so as "stable income" vs "unstable". Content creation is 100% a REAL job, but it's not the most stable financially. For many people, no matter how creative or how many hours they put in, their content may not land with others. In spite of working, it's a very real possibility to not be financially stable as a creative.
I’m late to the game on this one due to IRL. I had a moment like X did. I woke up, and I wasn’t going to do what I was doing anymore…I was going to put my shoes on a walk in a new direction. And I have never looked back with envy or regret. When one changes one’s life in this way, it’s unexplainable to others. It sounds so simple and actually it really was. With that it seems incomprehensible, but it was the simplest moment in my life. I hope more people can have that “shift” In society
Recently downloaded all 60+ hours of the podcast and been listening to all the ones that I haven't seen yet. Really, really good stuff. It's so cool and fun to listen to the stories you guys tell. I relate to you guys on several different levels - marching band, minecraft and software development being the main ones. I'm recently having to go through a job change due to moving and it's a bit stressful so it's very encouraging listening to your podcasts. Keep it up!
They're doing IRL interview when Grian travels to US to visit haunted house with Scar, Impulse and Skizz (Okay I'm just kidding, but MAYBE it could happen...? 💁🏻♂️)
Just teared up when Impulse was talking about that meeting during the pandemic. It was when I was introduced to Minecraft and the HermitCraft community and it really did have a huge impact on me during that terrible time. And Xisuma is right, I watch now to see your interactions between each other and to be part of this wonderful community. Thank you guys for what you do 💜
Ive said it on his streams and i say it again, I love how X is always able to articulate his respones, and be respectfull towards the person hes debating/talking with, wheter he agrees with you or not. Hes always able to see another persons point of view, and that makes for very good conversation. I love picking his brain on streams, and i think more people need to be like X...
X's tutorials were how I got into the mincraft/youtube space back in the day. I also agree that he's probably the smartest by not showing his face and good on him for sticking to his guns!
Brothers… I started instantly crying out of nowhere when y’all brought up pandemic hermitcraft. I moved to Phoenix AZ, to go across the country from everyone I knew, only to lose two jobs I had lined up a couple weeks later with the pandemic. I found hermitcraft literal days later I wouldn’t be making content if it wasn’t for y’all. Heck, my whole life has changed. I spend most days video editing & digital design, finally have the courage to create, and I just had my first experience that made me feel legitimate while making the Cobblemon mod trailer. Thank you X & Impulse (and of course Skizz, ya ball of joy). The Boomers are STILL comfort content for me 💙
Love the podcast. I feel like there was a missed opportunity to bring back the Xisuma Head box and plop it on the couch between you two lol. Looking forward to next weeks pt 2
I am definitely a huge hermitcraft fan for the amazing things you do together in Minecraft and the laughs and fun you have together. When I’m lacking that in my own life, seeing you all have fun and be close friends makes all the difference. Thank you!
hearing the story of how the hermits got together when the covid lockdown hit and went all out to show us a happy world filled with laughter and fun, and how much xisuma did to make that happen hit me hard man. Hermitcraft carried me on its back through the lockdown, and it was what i looked forward to every day during those harsh times. Knowing what xisuma did for that brought tears to my eyes. I doubt X reads these comments, but if he just so happens to, thank you xisuma for helping all of us and being amazing :)
Hermitcraft has always been about the community for me! Nothing makes me happier than watching you all play together and have fun, and I think it’s clear that it’s you guys that is more important than the “content” per say
Having watched Hermitcraft since season 4, I've watched a lot of these creators evolve in different ways in terms of content creation, and its great to see X and Skizz speak about how important it is for their personal growth to step into uncomfortable spaces and potentially thrive from them. I'm a big beliver of the same thing, and I love that the idea exists, despite how culturally, society today tends to teach the opposite.
X is full of humbled thoughts, if not wisdom. By protecting his identity he also protects his ego, and having that grace is so much of who he is to me. What an absolute charmer Doom Guy is.
Thanks for having Xisuma on, he is such a very interesting and thoughtful person! I've often thought he'd make a great podcaster himself provided he finds a good partner who matches his vibe and willingness to go deep
This was great guys, I’ve always been wanting to hear more about Xisuma in more of a podcast format, where we get to learn more about him as a person. This was quite a rare treat! Also I like how the discord profile of X looks like it’s burning a hole in impulses wall. Haha
Yo tool has been my number one for decades as well. I have seen tool like 5 times, their first ever show in Hawaii when I was in the Marines and several in DC and Baltimore. I have also seen A Perfect Circle show in Hershey Park when in high school. Greatest musicians ever.
I feel like I've been watching so many of the Hermits for so long, and then I get reminded of things like Xisuma's first tutorials videos being voiceless and I'm reminded that I started watching so many of them when I was still a kid.
I like how you guys are getting HC folks to join, but it's not just about HC. Thank you for seeing more in your guests than just the big name that everyone knows.
Listening to X on the Podcast has been great! I think it was really courageous how he stepped up to give the peeps who were doing Hermitcraft at the time that nudge they needed to keep going. And I have to say a big Thank you for it, because Impulse is right. Hermitcraft got me threw the Pandemic, and has gotten me threw a lot more since. And this podcast has helped as well. It's what makes every Friday a good day for me. So Thank you from the bottom to the top of my heart.
Wow. This podcast had so many amazing discussion points!! Firstly, it makes so much sense to hear X say hes a creative. Ive never really noticed that, but looking back if makes so much sense and the thing i love most about his videos is when he like “tinkers” with stuff. Also, I am a very small creator (different channel), and you guy hit the nail on the head that it is SO hard to break past that 1K sub mark. Ive been doing this for almost 2 years and still barely at 600. I post regularly… but the problem is im not technical enough or a skilled enough builder to outdo any of the existing creators who have played this game for 10+ years, and youtube doesn’t have that community to it anymore… its every man for himself. But yeah going into content creation i had negative idea on how much i would need to learn to do this. How much analysis it would take, how much editing, planning, photoshop skills, etc… it really is insane the things we learn to improve our content and it truly never stops. Also, “after so many years theres only so many ways to make a carrot farm”. Was perfectly accurate. For me (i started watching early S7) HC has always been about you guys rather than the Minecraft. Of course i love whay you guys do in game, but your interactions is what took the cake. Also, last thing. X: “yeah im 18” Skizz: “my gray hairs are 18” I about died 😂😂 cant wait for part 2. X is really amazing.
This was a really heartwarming ep! Whether he is the leader of hermitcraft or not, X is a great face for hermitcraft! Also the new life series just dropped, and I am SO HYPED!
I need X in life series, tho I know it's not his comfort zone - I need it more. It is a bit mean but... Watching him derp in blood on the clock tower made me huge fan and I need more of his content
Just watching this now!! Catching up on all these incredible podcasts. Just love what X said: The viewers are here for us, not really Minecraft. He could not be more right. We love the Hermits. The content and context are amazing. But we are here for the community and the team. One of my favorite podcasts. Thanks guys.
it's really wonderful to hear x smile here. i had the exact same first experience of minecraft as x, playing on the alphas of pocket edition when i was little i hadn't learned how to turn around and similarly got killed by a zombie from behind without ever seeing it, and despite that fell in love with the game. but also he was really right saying that we watch hermitcraft for the community rather than the game now. i haven't played minecraft in a few years but i so enjoy watching all of your perspectives every week and it's one of my biggest spots of joy during a stressful period of life
Super awesome to have Xisuma over the phone for an episode! For some reason, I never expected him to be on a podcast, but considering the kind of content he releases on his Xisumasays channel, I should have expected a collaboration like this at some point. I've always appreciated the insight he provides about various parts of life and his content creation journey, so this was a really fun listen. Looking forward to the second episode :)
I find it awesome just how genuinely great all the hermitcrafters are. They all just come across as kind, genuinely caring people, and I adore it. Great podcast guys! Loved listening to X history.
I love when everyone does story building on Hermitcraft! And when they slowly melt together with other storylines, as well as when others lore develops more, minecraft is a samdbox and your always developing your character or adding need mods and updates to keep making their style of building or even making something newly redstone. I love this episode, for just being honest and praising X for how amazing he is! Thank you X for keeping hermitcraft going so I could find it, and thank you for also introducing me to creators I probably wouldn't of found otherwise.
RUclipsrs you are doing a real job you put in more words than summer caught on “real jobs I support all three of you and all of your endeavors as long as you’re happy I am happy 25:33
Xisuma's a-ha experience of digging into the side of a hill and realizing how much the world could be manipulated resonates so deeply. I think I had a second one when redstone was first added to the game, that one just blew my mind. This open sandbox world suddenly seemed endless
That was great having Xisuma on! I'm grateful for the Hermits for stepping up during the pandemic. That was a blessing to be able to escape to Hermitcraft with you. Can I just say Proxi mod changed the game for you guys so much!! I'm so happy for it and the chance to do groups in proxi mod! I'm sad HHH kind of died because it was hard for us to hear Hermits when you guys would get far away from each other. So the Ren lava project is a one and done thing. Impulse and Skizz we are glad you have shown us your faces. We love them. We watch you for a reason. Old Nah! LOL
Watching this as someone who's still social distancing and pretty much self isolating, because of health reasons, and having Covid-19 right now regardless, the pandemic is still a pain in the ass for a lot of us. And we still need this escapism and company. ❤️
Thanks for having me on guys! It was an honour and a pleasure :-)
You were an amazing guest sir! Thank you for sharing your time with us.
heyo! you both did fant''aha''stic as always.
Sorry for the bad pun I was watching last life lol
@@impandskizzpodcast you should do a podcast with Grian and one with doc and also you should do a inperson hermit meetup or a bourdgames stream. I love what you do and keep it up
Thanks for the show, amazing vibes ⭐️
Not sure if you have time to play other games Xixuma? but try 7 ways to die its creative and also challenging
"I can't wait to see what the future [of Hermitcraft] holds."
It holds you, Skizz. It holds you.
The prophecy came true and we didn’t know it
I bet if X did a face reveal, he'd actually be the Doom guy.
He takes of the helmet and there's just ANOTHER helmet
If X did a face reveal, world.exe would stop working
With how he talks about health I would believe he is absolutely jacked
He has done guitar videos, he's just wearing a scream mask. And one time he did a reveal and took off the mask...to reveal...another mask! And then did it again! So he is a man who owns three scream masks
I thought it was gonna be like a Russian nesting doll.. after the helmet, is an Axolotl helmet, ravager helmet, bee helmet, turtle... let just say, Turtles all the way down
Petition to have DocM77 be the next guest on ze podcast! Hearing how he helped accidentally kick-start both Impulse's and X's channels makes me want to hear how he got started!
I cannot stress how much I would love to see Doc and Iskall on the show!
Would love to see Docm on the podcast and hear his take on the youtube meta and his reasoning behind the long video format he uses. Fan art would be a great topic as well
Bring on the GOAT.
Came here to say this, Doc has a great story
I don't know how doc started his channel but I do know like many he idolise etho
We don't need Xisuma's face reveal when we can hear when he's smiling

So true and adorable 😭
He's a lot taller than I imagined

not as tall as bdubs tho

Decked Out waiting hall has been such a good example of this.
Absolutely. We're here for their chemistry, their friendship, their banter. Those moments where they just talk or joke are my favourites too.

I'd love a poddie with Etho, not because of his prowess in redstone or history with MC, but because the man is genuinely interesting. You never know what you'll hear when he gets in the mood.
Yes and YES
Yeaaaah
They just confirmed the next episode will be with etho!
I think what X calls "growing into it" is similar to "you're never going to be ready, you just have to start". I love that Skizz talks about career instead of a job. Have been waiting to hear a conversation with X and Skizz for a long time and I love it!
It's a great way of seeing it, reminds me of most artists, they don't have jobs either, they have careers, i think youtube lines up with that style
This is addressing the conversation about the Hermitcraft community. I was in the hospital last year with my second brain tumor surgery (sounds awful, but I'm good), and my husband and I were watching a Grian video. A nurse came in and we paused it, but he had heard a little and asked, in a bit of a strange tone, what we were watching. We said we were watching a Minecraft RUclipsr, and he wanted to know specifically which one. When we said "Grian" he said "I love Grian!" He said he got into Hermitcraft watching it with his niece and nephew but now he just watches it anyway. So it's a small Hermit world, with a big community :)
That's wonderful to hear! :D
13:42 “doc has been responsible” sounds so funny in this context 😭
Petition to have a podcast with all the hermits at once
I'll sign that, second that, whatever it takes.❤
Signed!
Yes I'll sign that. Yay Chaos!
Signed!!!
That was just the decked out queueue
X hit the nail on the head. I found Hermitcraft during the pandemic. I watch you all (and, yes, I’m including Skizz) for who you are, your personalities, your interactions with each other and your communities. You’ve built an amazing community that I feel comfortable hanging out with. I love how I recognize the same viewer names in every Hermits’ chats. It is also why we watch other streams and videos beside Minecraft-I’m loving Phasmo and the Brain Teaser games X plays. Also, X’s avatar or a human Imp or Skizz, they are all just avatars. You are on a 2D screen and I probably won’t meet any of you-it’s your personalities that we connect with. Can’t wait until next week!! Thanks!
Including Skizz? Ya mean Skizz ain't no Hermit? Not in my unicornverse! He'll always be a hermit to me.
Ditto!
I haven't even watched Hermitcraft for a year yet, but I got into watching Minecraft in general thanks to it, and it's helped me through such a rough year when it comes to health. ❤
@@billwoehl3051Well you've got it now
What’s funny is that Skizz is now a Hermit
I just got newfound admiration for X as he told the story of DocM giving him a shout in one of his videos. Because I once sent an idea to X and completely unexpected, he gave me a shout out. I realise now the he was paying forward his own positive experience. What a great gesture, and what a great podcast. Please keep the good vibes rolling!
Reminded me of when he opened up a plot world where viewers could build a biome sample to inspire one of the biomes around his season 5 base.
AWWW 😭 ✋🏽
I've been waiting for X to share a life on the Imp and Skizz podcast! His Xisumasays are really insightful!
I absolutely love those videos, those and this podcast really got me thinking about how I act irl 💀💀💀
Absolutely agree, Xisuma is definitely a deep thinking individual, don't find that often anymore.
I can feel skizz getting added to S10 of HC with a massive announcement of him going full time
(Wishful thinking but a man can dream)
I think he Will make a Great Add. With the loss of TFC there is a Gap he would fill with Great fun and laughter..😂
Fingers crossed, he really deserves it. Such a lovely dude. He’d absolutely gel with the rest of the hermits.
Someone should start a petition
I think you're right, they're including him in everything now. I mean he's a great friend of all the Hermits, but I definitely noticed the uptick.
He certainly deserves it. And we would love it. Hearing how he talks about his job though, I feel like he won’t commit full time until he knows his kids are completely taken care of financially
Impulse : do not be unhappy about you aging. People who have been following you aged too and you just legitimate their love for a "younger" activity. I'm 47, and seeing you guys makes me less uncomfortable about playing games all the time ^^ And younger people seeing you for the first time? Gosh, I bet they'd love to have a dad like you.
Xisuma : for all the privacy you keep, hiding who you legally are, you're probably the most open person out there : you talk about your feelings, your hardships, and it's always so heartfelt, and so deep, it makes me emotional. Thank you.
Skizz? You're a compass to those guys, to understanding them : you are one of us, a watcher, a fan, even if you're a content creator yourself. You're a bit like Pixlriffs, outside the box, but with eyes on it and in it. And I really hope one day you get the joy to join that HC crew, even for just a short time.
As for Hermitcraft reaching the bottom of the barrel? Dudes... really? This season is one of the most amazing ever! You guys have been brimming with creativity, and even if it's not the first time, it's bigger, better, cuter, more, just more. So much happened, so many stories were told, so many castles were built, so many monsters were slain, so many obstacles were vanquished. You all make our days happier. Please don't stop.
💯💯💯💯💯💯
Well said!!
I 100% agree with X. I have not played Minecraft since Caves and Cliffs. Doesn’t really interest me in playing anymore. But I watch hermitcraft every week. Impulse, Mumbo, Scar, Grian, RenDog, Tango, Etho, every video. It’s almost borderline parasocial disorder 😅
I started watching in Season 6 because my son got into Minecraft - he has moved on, but I still love Hermitcraft, and it is all about the silliness, friendships and interaction between the hermits that make it entertaining. I really don't care about mega bases and super farms!
Borderline? I think you may be past that
I learned social part of English language thanks to hermitcraft. Watching and listening how actually people talk was big deal. And Hermits are the best in that because how friendly and kind they are. I haven't come across better place to take lessons from.
Petition to have BdoubleO on the Podcast! I absolutely love how you ask the guests about their creative journeys and allow us to understand who they are as people and how they got to what we see in videos.. it's very inspiring and eye opening!
I think X's analysis on how the Hermitcraft "Community" has evolved (especially through the pandemic) is 100% spot on.
I view the server so differently now than I did in the past. In the past, I saw it as a shared space for individual creativity (everyone kind of does what they want on their own terms, very little collaboration). I think there were two major catalysts for this:
1.) When Grian joined, a massive fanbase that didn't really overlap that much with Hermitcraft flooded all to content creators in this space.
2.) Season 8 (While it may not be everyone's favorite), in my opinion, it opened all the Hermit's eyes to a whole new way of producing content: As a community. Season 8 (with Boatem as a prime example) we saw collaboration on a scale that had never been done on Hermitcraft. Now in Season 9 with TCG and Decked Out, you are doing it all over again, creating a massive community behind you that is excited to watch all angles and long form (largely unedited) content. We all just want to know how you all react to the world, together. Kudos to all of you, GG, keep it up.
Season 7 had a huge mayor campaign and the whole mycelium resistance war, which I'd argue is collaboration on a scale way larger than Boatem ever was lol. And what about the civil war in season 6, team star vs g-team? We've had huge collaborations before.
I'd argue what actually changed Hermitcraft was the introduction of proximity chat!
Wait, I just realized that since Impulse's real name is Scott, that means the Gem and the Scotts team from Secret life was actually made up of Gem and two Scotts. That's hilarious! 😂😂❤
9:20 I think I’ve said it before, but I’d love to have guests come back on the podcast to discuss with you like regular episodes. Not only would it be fun to hear their opinions on certain topics (or listen to the stories you bring up), but it would also give you an opportunity to bring your guests back after the initial “interview” episode.
Watching this while impatiently waiting for the Life Series!
Also very X-cited for this! Lol
Same here
me too@@twentyonechickens21
Ditto, my dudes!! X totally worth it the time.
Same, same....
It comes out today I think
1:45 That synchronised "exactly" was gold.
Awwe you broke Xisuma ♥ But it was nice to hear this Hermitcraft rescue mission from someone else besides Xisuma himself. Because he downplays that part whenever someone asks in his streams so much, I didn't realise how big of a deal it actually was. So thank you and I am really looking forward to part 2! ☺
Time stamp?
@@octopibrothers2574 35:10
23:05 X really brought this home for me here. When you’re a creative person from the start, your world just feels so much bigger than what it actually is. These people generally have a hard time telling you what they want to be when you grow up because your aware that you could do anything. How chaotic to think about!
Really, really love hearing xisumavoid talk about stuff, and not just Minecraft. Watching his VODs where he goes on about different topics can be really enlightening. Heard him talk about his epiphany that led him to that attitude shift earlier in life, and how he stepped out of his comfort zone to take on the stewardship of Hermitcraft. Seeing how hard the RUclips grind can be for the other Hermits, you can really appreciate that kind of perspective.
I loved seeing X and Cleo doing the pirate thing, it was hilarious. Maybe one day Xisuma will join a Life series too. 🎉
Please don't apologize for being an older player. It is not just the young ones that play. I am now in my 60s and am so pleased that there is such an age range and so many role models out there.
Hermitcraft had such a impact and mine and my son's life. We are so grateful that X stepped up and kept it going.
I teared up during @34:57-35:15
That was so sweet and I do agree! Xisuma is a genuine great human being
I also cried like a baby lol, I wasn‘t expecting that at all
X was so right when he said, 'You/he didn't see or know the heights that Hermitcraft would/has come to.'
I started my Hermit journey when Ren joined the flock on S4. I had been watching Red since I first started MC in 2012. It was a huge turning point for me as a builder, watching him and then many other Hermits do their thing. You all have been such an inspiration to me and my building ability. I always make it a thing to hand one of you off to a friend to get hooked on the Hermits. I just sent a new viewer to your realm this week. They are binge watching now.
I think something that Xisuma said and resonated with me a lot is how the viewers gradually shift from watching minecraft to watching them. Despite the recent growth in minecraft content in the past few years (more SMP, speedruns, manhunt, mods, etc.), Hermitcraft had always been a constant in my life ever since I stumbled on their videos in season 6. When I want to watch something, I always go to them first, because now I associate a kind of funny and comforting feelings with their content. Big thank you for every videos you guys make, it's always joyful to see a new upload!
This season of hermitcraft has become my favorite so far. The sense of community is so strong, and the best moments haven’t been the builds (though those are amazing!) but instead it’s been these incredible moments between hermits. The conversations, the helping, the advice, and even the pranks have all just felt more… real, I guess? The vibe is fantastic, the atmosphere is uplifting, and every episode seems to exude joy and heart. I feel lucky to get to watch and experience it.
X talking about hermitcraft, sounds like anyone from the community talking about hc. He shares the same passion we feel towards this community. It was so sweet to hear him say what we have all been saying about the community they have built.
X seriously hit the nail on the head! We watch for you! If you don't enjoy something we feel it and see it! We love the collective that is HermitCraft! You guys are amazing please keep up what you love doing!
I really hoping Xisuma will appear in your show with his ghost face
Omg!!! It's been so great to hear x speak, and just hear that happiness in his voice! It brings a good warmth to my chest! I'd love to know more about the poetry, but ahh, this was such a good episode of the podcast and thank you all so much!!
Awesome to see Xisuma on the show! He's the reason I'm here watching you guys, having found the entire group through his channel
So excited that X is on the podcast!! Loving every second! I very much related to his “ah huh” moment 😊
Me to. But mine was hanging out under a villager house overhang with phantoms teasing me because I was too noob to go inside and sleep 😊
I started watching HC right at the beginning of S7 and it was a great retreat during that time. I found the entire situation disturbing, having a place to go for escape and positivity was amazing and I am forever grateful.
Honestly, Skizz saying he doesn't see his job as a "job" but rather goes for the sentiment of "I don't have a job, I have a career" Is genuinely such a good mindset
It's made me feel so much more secure in my own freelance work to think of it that way, not a job but a career
I can listen to xisuma 24x7 his voice is so soothing
I'm always down to hear X waffle on 😊
Hermitcraft certainly kept me going during the pandemic after getting COVID and ending up in hospital my happy Place was watching All the Hermits and just escaping..Fun and Laughter You all kept it going..❤😷
I remember during the pandemic, y’all were a huge moral support for me. I was finishing nursing school and then hopping right into being a new nurse during the pandemic. It was so refreshing to come home and watch Hermitcraft, cause y’all NEVER talked about what was going on in the world. That was HUGE for me. Thank y’all ❤
Yes! Time to cram this in before the Life videos later today inbetween class and work lol
The first video that showed up in my feed was Day 1 of season 8 of impulses. I was like what is this? Who are these people? I feel in love with the community from the hermits to the viewers. Having something so easy to watch and have a good laugh over the interactions. Has turned into a safe place for me. Also Impulse I truly want to thank you for creating this safe place for me to come in and know I will feel like I'm seen in a way that is different. Being someone who has struggled with making friends and figuring out how to move around this difficult world. Thank you 🙏
super late to this episode but i just HAD to say, in my experience it's the people who don't seek out leadership but step into it anyway when they can see it's necessary, who have exactly the kind of mindset that makes a good leader! glad you folks had X on, and wow really good to hear his perspective!!
This makes me proud to work with X directly, re-listening to his story from the begining resonates so much with my own story and gives me hope for sucess in the future, X is truly an amazing person even when you interact with him away from a camera, trust me, this was such a cool episode, X was my inspiration to press the record button and learn how to make a video, how to record, how to edit and that made me learn so many skills, honestly all thanks to this guy.
I had never goten to watch the show but now i know i have a bunch of episodes to listen to! Thank you Imp and Skizz for the amazing content!
I watched him for the first time on the cross-over with the Empires. I enjoyed his interaction with Joey and Cleo.
I would really like to see Etho at some point, he is such an amazing person and would probably be an amazing guest also ability to learn more about him that people that don't follow him for long time won't know, like how he was recognised by a kid or about how did he end up in hermitcraft
X was the first hermit I watched and binged way back in the day. Then it was TFC, Impulse and Tango. Loved the interview, can't wait till part 2
The conversation about needing to step into uncomfortable spaces and eventually growing into them really hits hard. I’m a college student, pre-vet, and working in clinics and screwing up is how you learn, but geez, talking to clients is not the most fun.
@@luissuazo3684 The internet really likes to make assumptions on how things work. I’m not a vet (yet). You’re not allowed to do things or make decisions that could end lives unless you’ve had all the training. I don’t. When I say “screw up” I mean “I got scratched up, now I know how to avoid that in the future,” “I messed up the order of the tests on the blood machine and it took five minutes longer than it should have but I’ll never do that again.” “I forgot to put a “refrigerate” sticker on that med, but it’s written on the packaging in five places and someone caught it before it went out, I’ll be sure to double-check in the future.”
Besides, how entitled can you be? “I don’t want my service I’m paying for to decline.” Dude, people who you’re paying to do stuff are still PEOPLE. We didn’t pop up from the ground fully formed with all the knowledge we needed. We’re gonna mess up sometimes. We’re gonna have to learn. That’s how it works.
I know there is so much pressure to do face reveals, but I 100% agree that remaining anonymous is the best for content creators, if that’s what you wish to do. It allows you to not have to worry about always having to present yourself the way that your viewers see you, you can just be a person. I’m not sure if I’m explaining it right at all, but that’s my feel
Xisuma was the person who got me into Hermitcraft (back in Season 7) and online minecraft creators in the first place, really happy to listen to this and find out more about the history of a person I very much respect
I love that X mentioned the music of Command and Conquer. I still love listening to it, C&C was and is a great game.
C&C Red Alert 2 had great music
c and c has the best music I bought it again a year ago and the nostalgia hit hard
If I can just be sappy -- Hermitcraft has really been a boon for me through some tough times. Everyone on Hermitcraft has a real vibe of friendship and camaraderie. And there's SO much negativity in the world right now, that seeing you all and how you come together is so peaceful and so inspiring. It's clear you all love each other so much, and that's so important. You've had a really beautiful impact on my life, all of you, and I can't express my thankfulness enough.
just the other day i was thinking about how i would love to see xisuma come on as a guest to the podcast. and then i woke up today to find that it indeed happened!! cant wait for next week for the part 2 ^-^
Xisuma’s privacy is something I agree with. When I was young people were told to never divulge much online.
To see it completely flipped post social media is so alien to me.
Xisuma is the reason I started following all the hermits on Hermitcraft. Every episode he would say to check out their video and I did them subscribed
25:00 I think we need to start looking at it not as a "real job" vs not, but more so as "stable income" vs "unstable".
Content creation is 100% a REAL job, but it's not the most stable financially. For many people, no matter how creative or how many hours they put in, their content may not land with others. In spite of working, it's a very real possibility to not be financially stable as a creative.
I’m late to the game on this one due to IRL.
I had a moment like X did.
I woke up, and I wasn’t going to do what I was doing anymore…I was going to put my shoes on a walk in a new direction. And I have never looked back with envy or regret.
When one changes one’s life in this way, it’s unexplainable to others. It sounds so simple and actually it really was. With that it seems incomprehensible, but it was the simplest moment in my life.
I hope more people can have that “shift” In society
Recently downloaded all 60+ hours of the podcast and been listening to all the ones that I haven't seen yet. Really, really good stuff. It's so cool and fun to listen to the stories you guys tell. I relate to you guys on several different levels - marching band, minecraft and software development being the main ones. I'm recently having to go through a job change due to moving and it's a bit stressful so it's very encouraging listening to your podcasts. Keep it up!
If they can have X, they could have Grian... ❤
Yeah. They have already had Mumbo, now Xisuma, so Grian isn't much of a stretch
If the have X, they can have Etho....
Interviewing Grian likely would not be a problem. Scheduling a time when he's free to do the podcast would be like nailing Jell-O to a wall.
They're doing IRL interview when Grian travels to US to visit haunted house with Scar, Impulse and Skizz
(Okay I'm just kidding, but MAYBE it could happen...? 💁🏻♂️)
Just teared up when Impulse was talking about that meeting during the pandemic. It was when I was introduced to Minecraft and the HermitCraft community and it really did have a huge impact on me during that terrible time. And Xisuma is right, I watch now to see your interactions between each other and to be part of this wonderful community.
Thank you guys for what you do 💜
Ive said it on his streams and i say it again, I love how X is always able to articulate his respones, and be respectfull towards the person hes debating/talking with, wheter he agrees with you or not. Hes always able to see another persons point of view, and that makes for very good conversation. I love picking his brain on streams, and i think more people need to be like X...
X's tutorials were how I got into the mincraft/youtube space back in the day. I also agree that he's probably the smartest by not showing his face and good on him for sticking to his guns!
Brothers… I started instantly crying out of nowhere when y’all brought up pandemic hermitcraft. I moved to Phoenix AZ, to go across the country from everyone I knew, only to lose two jobs I had lined up a couple weeks later with the pandemic. I found hermitcraft literal days later
I wouldn’t be making content if it wasn’t for y’all. Heck, my whole life has changed. I spend most days video editing & digital design, finally have the courage to create, and I just had my first experience that made me feel legitimate while making the Cobblemon mod trailer.
Thank you X & Impulse (and of course Skizz, ya ball of joy).
The Boomers are STILL comfort content for me 💙
Yay!!! I’ve been waiting for a new guest!! I can’t wait to watch this when I get home
Love the podcast. I feel like there was a missed opportunity to bring back the Xisuma Head box and plop it on the couch between you two lol. Looking forward to next weeks pt 2
I am definitely a huge hermitcraft fan for the amazing things you do together in Minecraft and the laughs and fun you have together. When I’m lacking that in my own life, seeing you all have fun and be close friends makes all the difference. Thank you!
hearing the story of how the hermits got together when the covid lockdown hit and went all out to show us a happy world filled with laughter and fun, and how much xisuma did to make that happen hit me hard man. Hermitcraft carried me on its back through the lockdown, and it was what i looked forward to every day during those harsh times. Knowing what xisuma did for that brought tears to my eyes.
I doubt X reads these comments, but if he just so happens to, thank you xisuma for helping all of us and being amazing :)
Hermitcraft has always been about the community for me! Nothing makes me happier than watching you all play together and have fun, and I think it’s clear that it’s you guys that is more important than the “content” per say
Having watched Hermitcraft since season 4, I've watched a lot of these creators evolve in different ways in terms of content creation, and its great to see X and Skizz speak about how important it is for their personal growth to step into uncomfortable spaces and potentially thrive from them. I'm a big beliver of the same thing, and I love that the idea exists, despite how culturally, society today tends to teach the opposite.
X is full of humbled thoughts, if not wisdom. By protecting his identity he also protects his ego, and having that grace is so much of who he is to me. What an absolute charmer Doom Guy is.
Thanks for having Xisuma on, he is such a very interesting and thoughtful person! I've often thought he'd make a great podcaster himself provided he finds a good partner who matches his vibe and willingness to go deep
This was great guys, I’ve always been wanting to hear more about Xisuma in more of a podcast format, where we get to learn more about him as a person. This was quite a rare treat!
Also I like how the discord profile of X looks like it’s burning a hole in impulses wall. Haha
1:45 them saying "exactly" at the exact same time made me giggle
Yo tool has been my number one for decades as well. I have seen tool like 5 times, their first ever show in Hawaii when I was in the Marines and several in DC and Baltimore. I have also seen A Perfect Circle show in Hershey Park when in high school. Greatest musicians ever.
I feel like I've been watching so many of the Hermits for so long, and then I get reminded of things like Xisuma's first tutorials videos being voiceless and I'm reminded that I started watching so many of them when I was still a kid.
I’m so happy that X is on the podcast! I’ve been hoping he would be for a while!
I like how you guys are getting HC folks to join, but it's not just about HC. Thank you for seeing more in your guests than just the big name that everyone knows.
Listening to X on the Podcast has been great! I think it was really courageous how he stepped up to give the peeps who were doing Hermitcraft at the time that nudge they needed to keep going. And I have to say a big Thank you for it, because Impulse is right. Hermitcraft got me threw the Pandemic, and has gotten me threw a lot more since. And this podcast has helped as well. It's what makes every Friday a good day for me. So Thank you from the bottom to the top of my heart.
Comfort is the enemy of progress! Another awesome quote Skizz
Wow. This podcast had so many amazing discussion points!! Firstly, it makes so much sense to hear X say hes a creative. Ive never really noticed that, but looking back if makes so much sense and the thing i love most about his videos is when he like “tinkers” with stuff.
Also, I am a very small creator (different channel), and you guy hit the nail on the head that it is SO hard to break past that 1K sub mark. Ive been doing this for almost 2 years and still barely at 600. I post regularly… but the problem is im not technical enough or a skilled enough builder to outdo any of the existing creators who have played this game for 10+ years, and youtube doesn’t have that community to it anymore… its every man for himself.
But yeah going into content creation i had negative idea on how much i would need to learn to do this. How much analysis it would take, how much editing, planning, photoshop skills, etc… it really is insane the things we learn to improve our content and it truly never stops.
Also, “after so many years theres only so many ways to make a carrot farm”. Was perfectly accurate. For me (i started watching early S7) HC has always been about you guys rather than the Minecraft. Of course i love whay you guys do in game, but your interactions is what took the cake.
Also, last thing.
X: “yeah im 18”
Skizz: “my gray hairs are 18”
I about died 😂😂 cant wait for part 2. X is really amazing.
This was a really heartwarming ep! Whether he is the leader of hermitcraft or not, X is a great face for hermitcraft!
Also the new life series just dropped, and I am SO HYPED!
I need X in life series, tho I know it's not his comfort zone - I need it more. It is a bit mean but... Watching him derp in blood on the clock tower made me huge fan and I need more of his content
@@ExcaliburPaladin he's so hilarious as a fish out of water! I think he and mumbo would get along well in the life series!
Just watching this now!! Catching up on all these incredible podcasts. Just love what X said: The viewers are here for us, not really Minecraft. He could not be more right. We love the Hermits. The content and context are amazing. But we are here for the community and the team. One of my favorite podcasts. Thanks guys.
it's really wonderful to hear x smile here. i had the exact same first experience of minecraft as x, playing on the alphas of pocket edition when i was little i hadn't learned how to turn around and similarly got killed by a zombie from behind without ever seeing it, and despite that fell in love with the game.
but also he was really right saying that we watch hermitcraft for the community rather than the game now. i haven't played minecraft in a few years but i so enjoy watching all of your perspectives every week and it's one of my biggest spots of joy during a stressful period of life
I loved your notice to Season 7 of Hermitcraft; yes, I am endlessly grateful and thankful for your content in those times. ⭐️
Was expecting him to do the face cam with his scream mask on
Super awesome to have Xisuma over the phone for an episode! For some reason, I never expected him to be on a podcast, but considering the kind of content he releases on his Xisumasays channel, I should have expected a collaboration like this at some point. I've always appreciated the insight he provides about various parts of life and his content creation journey, so this was a really fun listen. Looking forward to the second episode :)
I find it awesome just how genuinely great all the hermitcrafters are. They all just come across as kind, genuinely caring people, and I adore it. Great podcast guys! Loved listening to X history.
I love when everyone does story building on Hermitcraft! And when they slowly melt together with other storylines, as well as when others lore develops more, minecraft is a samdbox and your always developing your character or adding need mods and updates to keep making their style of building or even making something newly redstone. I love this episode, for just being honest and praising X for how amazing he is! Thank you X for keeping hermitcraft going so I could find it, and thank you for also introducing me to creators I probably wouldn't of found otherwise.
RUclipsrs you are doing a real job you put in more words than summer caught on “real jobs I support all three of you and all of your endeavors as long as you’re happy I am happy 25:33
Xisuma's a-ha experience of digging into the side of a hill and realizing how much the world could be manipulated resonates so deeply. I think I had a second one when redstone was first added to the game, that one just blew my mind. This open sandbox world suddenly seemed endless
That was great having Xisuma on! I'm grateful for the Hermits for stepping up during the pandemic. That was a blessing to be able to escape to Hermitcraft with you. Can I just say Proxi mod changed the game for you guys so much!! I'm so happy for it and the chance to do groups in proxi mod! I'm sad HHH kind of died because it was hard for us to hear Hermits when you guys would get far away from each other. So the Ren lava project is a one and done thing.
Impulse and Skizz we are glad you have shown us your faces. We love them. We watch you for a reason. Old Nah! LOL
To the layman this conversation might be meaningless, but to a creative this podcast is inspiring. Big fan
Watching this as someone who's still social distancing and pretty much self isolating, because of health reasons, and having Covid-19 right now regardless, the pandemic is still a pain in the ass for a lot of us. And we still need this escapism and company. ❤️
Very creative I’m glad you got him on the show
