Hey guys, I made a new video that I honestly think you would also enjoy if you like this one, so check it out! I also made a Discord server: discord.gg/P7aWggzP2M
Guudeboulderfist isnt the first the only first one, on exactly the same day the german youtuber Gronkh uploadet his minecraft lets play series, so pls come on...
I made a server with one friend and we were planning to just do one video but now its the BEST SMP SERVER with 21 members and so many EPIC vids + its on the servers list with branding and im putting so much effort into this with content to satisfy any audience HOODCRAFT!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@Kichuplayz While partially true, that is offset by the constant new members. The cooperation between hermits causes audiences to merge pretty well, causing all channels to grow without any 'new' viewers being introduced overall
The whole pvp and mr beast edited style smps are so alienating to me. At the moment I'm only watching Hermitcraft. Have been since S6 and I don't regret sticking with it. Yes even Hermitcraft had 2 seasons that were low in energy, but they're fully back now imo with S10!
@@grimplaysminecraft746Its not even that they just feel staged. A lot of them center a bit too much around PvP and griefing each other because it's much more fast-paced and attention grabbing than friends goofing around with each other.
Motherfucker, you realize those things have existed since 2014? This is litterally just the modern equivalent of that. You should be glad that the mainstream interest for mc is this big.
i do get that, after a while pvp just isnt so fun anymore, and it takes a lot of effort to raise the stakes, the gimmick gets old too, content smp is a relly good one thought, it has a lot of conflict, but it doesnt feel as forced, and the gimmick keeps it fresh and interesting and there are meaningful relantionships between the players, and its not all betrayers one after the other, but the newest season of lifesteal smp is pretty good on the storytelling department.
Techno in the dream SMP perfectly balanced and represetned why everyone liked the Dream SMP. It was and shouldve been a story with bloopers breaking the plot and the streamers charachter. At one moment you would have a speech by techno and then he summons 2 withers...and then the withers said "subscribe to technoblade". You would have dream confronting techno for housing tommy and then techno would start reading donations randomly. It wasnt a grand story being it was a random plot beats that had perfect comedic moments that said "Yes this is minecraft and were having fun".
If there is anything I hope people take away from techno is, be authentic. There are lots of things he did that most would consider "bad practices", but he always made it work, with his immaculate sense of sarcasm that made his dark humor actually funny.
The "plot" is the main reason I could never get into it. Felt less like friends playing minecraft and more like a low budget tv show where screaming was the constant gag. Felt, somehow, even more childish. But if you found it fun that's your tastes and I won't dog on you about it. Unless you're a diehard dreamstan of course
@@nathanramage1275I think people loved it so much because it was something different. I don’t think there were many servers where the most famous minecrafters live-streamed themselves acting out a wild plot. Besides, most of the viewers were kids, and found it extremely fascinating. No one expected it to be that great and were just having fun. (Besides the most die hard stans.) And I think a lot of the older or more mature viewers were watching techno because his humor is less childish, and he constantly broke the fourth wall and didn’t try to take the plot seriously
I am VERY grateful for Hermitcraft... Its just vanilla survival in its purest form. There's no click-baity thumbnails, no fast-paced tiktok attention-span editing, there's basically no scripting. Its all (for the most part) spontaneous vanilla gameplay and player interaction (there was season 8 where they attempted a bit of a storyline, but that was a one-time thing that didn't catch on). Its just wholesome. While everyone is complaining about what Minecraft RUclips has become, Hermitcraft has remained true to itself, not trying to chase after trends or monetization, its just simply a group of RUclipsrs playing together and making videos about it.
I would argue with the fact that it is ''vanilla in its purest form'' at this point in time as nowadays they use a ton of plugins, datapacks, external tools and even mods, but the point definitely still stands. Hermitcraft is fucking amazing, I sure hope and HEARTFULLY BELIEVE it will never die down!
Nothing mentioning empires, powcreations, mcc, the life series with third life, the fact that hermitcraft is still going, glossing over techno’s death as if it didn’t affect more than just the Dream smp (double life had most of them posting their videos a day or two later when techno’s news came out), minte and more.
@@bluecup5463 Yes but I figured to mention it as it did help out with smps. Players on smp live celebrated the wins from mcc 1, players such as Hbomb and Eret joined the Dream smp through MCC, Dream would of never invited them if mcc wasn’t a thing, one of the longest running server hermitcraft has many of their players in mcc and frequently mention it in their videos, hell Rendog put it on his skin for a while and in another smp (aka third life) his crown as the red king was the mcc crown, it had influenced another smp in a small way. While this video is only about smps, I figured mcc might be a good thing to bring up.
I do hate the staged content that people did to SMPs, it's like after the DreamSMP ended, everyone wanted to make content that made people simply click along with the high-paced editing and more. If I ever make an SMP, it's gonna be slow-paced and not about trying to beat the game. It's gonna be more calming and enjoyable, who knows maybe modded too-! One that isn't scripted just to generate money from RUclips.
Honestly if I ever make an SMP, I'm just gonna mod it into oblivion and the world will look like (The Last Of Us) but on steroids. I love fighting overpowered abominations beyond my comprehension with overpowered abilities from anime shows and fighting games.
Was thinking you at least had 1k subs with how high quality these videos are, I was surprised to see you only had 50! You are for sure the most underrated creator on this platform
Crazy yet, they arguably still are. They still have a devout fanbase and thousands of adults who grew up watching them, They'll keep their respect for much longer compared to neo-MC youtubers. That's what happens when you play a game for fun and keep up your humility.
I think Jschlat and SMPlive was contributing factor rather than a main reason, minecraft nostalgia Tiktoks in 2018 massively renewed interest in Minecraft, Pewdiepie's lets play and hermitcraft season 6 alongside SMPlive added to that renewed interest and shoot the game back up in terms of popularity!
A smp that wasn't mentioned but was also very popular is a series called mianite. Predated smplive and was a live streamed series with roleplay. The impressive thing about mianite is how popular it was it was partially responsible for the first two streamers on twitch to receive 1 million followers (syndicate, then captiansparklez.) Omgitzfirefoxx became the biggest female twitch streamer and held that place for years during her time on the series. and when ever they streamed minecraft was the most viewed category on twitch . I even remember a few times where silly things that happened on stream hit trending on twitter. It might not hit the numbers that streamers hit now but, Mianite definetly feels like the precursor to like dsmp and life steal.
Dude, this is so underrated! SMP content has definitely taken a turn. People are getting tired of the fake and hyper edited smp stuff, and turning to classics such as Hermitcraft.
YOU HAVE TO MENTION THE YOGSCAST SMPS. Its literally one of the oldest and also the first to popularize the original Tekkit modpack. They are also the first to incorporate roleplay in the smp.
@@In_The_Base in terms of smp Im thinking about moonquest, the tekkit server and the yogpack server. They dont have official names I think but in spirit its the exact same as modern smps (and in my opinion cooler because of all the crazy cool mods). Like different yogscast groups would have their own playthroughs with their own themes and occasionally theyd make cameos in each other's series. Like Duncan's mad science/cybernetics aesthetic coming in contact with Sjinn's farmer roleplay.
@@kice1102 one major difference is how they were formatted with the yogscast and other channel having it be a series that are numbered and that are easy to follow instead of the being stream highlights or not being numbered (I know some series still do it like that but popular smp’s like the dream smp or smp live deviate from that format) and while it might be a thing of having the algorithm pick up the videos I do like the series format more
3rd life smp? Along with the entire "life" series? Origins? Empires? X life? The rest of hermitcraft? Scicraft? Naked and afraid? (I'm just giving you a hard time, love the video) Hey who knows, future video?
Judging by the quality of the video I thought that you'd have atleast 50k subs but after realizing that the number was only 200 it left me quite impressed. Well deserved sub.
"Damn this video seems pretty neat, I wonder how-" "oh 42 subs.... Make that 43 :)" } For real man good stuff here. Hope to see you continue in the future.
Good video one thing I’d mention is that dreamsmp isn’t the first smp with the concept of scripting stories and events there was mianite that did it before they did (also the players weren’t aware of the script so it felt more real)
Ive gotta say, the algorythm has for no reason gotten much better at its job. I see videos ive already watched less often and more and more do i see small channels in my recommended. Its gotten to the point that i didnt even realise how small this channel was until i looked at the comments.
and then here i am in belgium where dutch speaking youtube had 'the kingdom' with a fk ton of yters all having kingdoms and viewers being invited with massive lore and wars actual songs and rap battles, what made it even better was the fact that the benelux is tiny and basically all the yters knew each other irl so the irl lore is also insane, and all of this in like 2012 - 2015
I love that the Spanish SMPs are mostly a handful of RUclipsrs/streamers playing and having a fun time with each other where the role-playing is just some special events. It is more enjoyable and honest than these newer ones. Good examples are: Elitecraft, Piolacraft, Minecrfat extremo, Permadeath, etc
I tried to become the MOST POWERFUL player on this smp, stealing the ? from my enemies and becoming the strongest player. u see, it all started ? days ago when I got attacked in my base/my dog got killed/I went on vacation/I got betrayed. *shows footage* Wait wait wait, ? u say? because on this server, everytime u kill someone u get/upgrade ur ?. this template for ur slop smp is free to use, enjoy
I actually started a community smp with close friends last year and it went on pretty well for about a month or two, we had a slowly expanding border and little shops and everything. It was honestly one of the most soothing experiences ive ever had.
ahh yes, the famous 2 week multiplayer minecraft phase. i've had like 5 servers with my friends over the course of like 4 years. none have lasted more than a month, but their memories are still cherished and referenced by us alot
The SDMP is a pretty SMPLIVE like experience, I like it a ton and it kind of feels like a revival of all the creators in SMPLIVE that didn't yet have their chance to shine in a survival SMP. You should cover it sometime! Enjoyed this video a ton, subbed for your enthusiastic character and good writing. Keep it going, tsu :)
My favorite smp rn is Content SMP, where the plot point is continued by the member custom mod that’ll be add to the server since are chunk of the member are modder
I do love hermitcraft but i sure am glad that it didn't stick like that forever. I love the balance right now of a huge pvp smp and a huge friendly smp
This is why I’m glad that the smp that me and my friend started is completely vanilla minecraft. Just simple and fun. For anyone curious its called the BrainDead SMP Its not about views for us, its about having fun.
MindCrack was such a big part of my childhood. Especially season 2, I have watched every VintageBeef season 2 video a few times over the years. That castle was so cool to me and the Gravel door (ifyky) was the first time i ever saw a really cool redstone system.
Woah great video man. I'm grateful to see some people actually making informational and funny videos about topics i enjoy. Not to mention it's 30 minutes man! I can tell you really spent a lot of time editing and writing this and i hope to see more videos in this style, because your personality and passion is in contrast to HUNDREDS of other videos that are similar in style, but just boring. Thanks you for making such a great video on a topic a enjoy, you got my subscription man.
I loved the video, and I also love the type of smps that are more about the sillies and laughs like the qsmp or sdmp. Great content and a good fucking underrated channel
All these years later, finding out Guude ruined Mindcrack trying to turn it corporate just kinda sucks. I loved that server, I can't believe *that's* what killed it.
I feel that nowadays for series such as grain’s life series and hermitcraft people’s love for the series stem from their love for the creator playing. Feels like you are watching a funny group of friends again instead of a scripted story with crafted characters
honestly, near the end, talking about the lack of passion in the server, i remembered a spanish smp called EliteCraft, it was an amazing series that may come back, created by ElRichMc who also created PermaDeath some years ago (and a second season is "coming soon")
All i wanted to do for an SMP was do a medieval styled one, with structures looking from the era, castles, ect, maybe have a ton of pathways, like elden ring almost, and add one thing - Golden coins/currency, and see what happens and such.
It's sad to see the state of SMPs nowadays, it's just slop for kids to eat up rather than an interesting story told to us like Dream SMP. It's sad that these SMPs went thru MrBeast-ification (if thats how u call it) but atleast hermitcraft exists and is still very massive
You forgot a lot of things, like mentioning the fact that technical Minecraft SMPs exist, a lot of them, full of content creators that really have impacted the Minecraft community overall. Some creators that were on Mindcrack (like Docm77) were also on Sci-Craft (arguably the biggest and longest technical Minecraft SMP to ever exist). Sci-Craft also hosted players like ilmango (widely known for his redstone inventios), gnembon (now an actual Mojang employee) and we could keep going. Not to mention there's still a whole lot of technical Minecraft SMPs as well.
29:10 i think you can actually see a lot of tecnoblade's influence in newer creators, especially the parts were tecnoblade is doing something, and then it cuts to him explaining in a different world, and another thing, i think whats happening to smps is pretty much what happened before, what starts as a heart to heart interaction and fun ideas, them quickly becomes a content farm that aims for children's attention, which is what ended up killing minecraft before, which relly reinforces the cyclical nature of minecraft in my opnion.
The SDSMP is awesome Jay short has done a great job of making it entertaining with tons of different mods and since there are so many people on the server, you get a mix of whatever you like.
ofc, things get old after awhile, it makes complete since you dont get the same excitement at plain vanilla minecraft the 100th time seeing it. the only problem is that the servers were focused on fun and friends back then, and now its all for fame and money. i'd get bored if i tried to rewatch all of these old smp's i used to love, but i still miss the culture back then.
Amazing SMP retrospective video honestly, even if you should have definitely talked about the later days of Hermitcraft and how it not giving up eventually DID pay off, with Seasons 6 & above becoming its very best and so on. _(Also, SMP overview with zero mentions of Grian? Damn)._ An interesting and thought-provoking tale of how long-running Minecraft series were born and killed... And how despite all that Hermitcraft managed to live and reach this modern day and age stronger than ever! Just like how I like to say... *Mindcrack walked so Hermitcraft could run,* and boy oh boy did Hermitcraft run indeed!
I've only seen one comment mentioning my favourite SMP named Mianite. It came before SMPLive and had scripted events like the DreamSMP did, though it was much more fantasy based. I watched CaptainSparklez perspective most of the time and I remember having to book it home after school because the stream started 10 minutes after school finished. That series was actually the reason I made a Twitch account. I'd seriously recommend it to anyone who likes the DreamSMP
I do love the life series, I’m a little tired on hermitcraft but I always come back to watch all the life series, and I also watch lifesteal smp who feels like a chill smp a smp where everyone are just having fun!
I like the premise of the video but I have a few criticisms: - I would recommend backing up from the mic when yelling because it sounds awful no matter how low I turn the volume. - This video I think does not properly express the longevity of Hermitcraft. While a lot of other SMPs burned hard and burned fast, Hermitcraft has been very careful to keep the series somewhat fresh without going so far as to alienate their viewers and as a result has gained a very dedicated and very happy fanbase. It feels more laid back than a lot of other series and I can guarantee that it is a hell of a lot less stressful for the members to participate compared to a lot of other modern series. This, in combination with the fact that the biggest drama in its history was incredibly tame in the grand scheme of things, I think has really contributed to its survival. And a not-really-a-criticism: The Hermitcraft members and co. sometimes host their own lifesteal-esque SMPs around once a year. The whole series is barely ever full on conflict until the very end and generally stays in the realm of tasteful and thoroughly entertaining mischief which some may or may not like but I really enjoyed.
Gonna agree with one of the other comments that I wish there was a mention of the Yogscast multiplayer series. Their original LP which became Shadow of Israphel, the many modpack series, etc. Those and Mindcrack were my first exposure to SMPs. Gonna add here that I'm also glad that Hermitcraft has had such longevity. I as a Mindcrack fan used to dislike Hermitcraft until I gave MumboJumbo a shot many years ago.
Bro great storytelling, scriptwriting, and editing. You may be a small channel, but this video was well done even for your sheer size. I thought you had probably 20-30k subs 😅, well now your one sub closer.
I love the video , one lil thing that bothered me is that it felt like you were rushing the recording and i could barely understand some parts sounding like mumbling
I played Minecraft back in 2010 and I can’t say there weren’t crazy wars and factions. I also can’t say things weren’t slower but they were still chaotic
I’m surprised that you didn’t mention Mianite at all, it was the largest SMP on twitch for quite a while. It was also the first to add a written story to the mix, way way way before Dream SMP
to anyone new watching this, may i recommend Dr.rat and content smp? A crew of modders, slightly scripted, but more roleplayed over scripted events, with everyone being able to add their own mod/mods to the server.
Great video, nice to see small channels with quality videos popping up on my home page. This video I would say is very professionally done especially for someone so ‘small’ I hope to replicate one day lol. Anyways I just wanted to throw in another very popular smp called Mianite which I also consider one of the grandfathers of modern smps. Most of what they did there was different from other smps at the time where they introduced storylines into the series. Still waiting on season 3 but it’s all but gone 😢
Just dropping a comment to say great video tsu! Cannot believe reading some of these comments you had under 50subs about 48 hours ago. Love the content, keep it up!
I was too young for Mindcrack, and I wanted to get into the other SMPs. But technoblade, Vannoss, Wilbur and others were just too griefy. I always found their personalities coarse. Hermitcraft was just right for me
I think there's definitely a couple more that schlatt has been a part of that deserved a mention like sdmp and epic smp which were pretty cool. There was also a tekkit smp schlatt was a part of. Kind a wild just how man there have been though.
the only smps ive ever played on were private ones with friends that were not at all structured and had no real goals besides beat the game. personally i think thats more fun than the current definition of an smp
90gq is one of the first smp's in the world they started around when multiplayer got added i think 1-2 days after and its one of the ogs that still exists like an og its just poeple building and doing things in minecraft
this was some truly amazing content for someone that is just staring out on youtube keep up the great work ill def be looking out for your next video loved the enthusiasm behind it! if your looking to do a new mc series you should check out treasurewars that just came out again (lachlans old server) under new management but all the same old feels
contentsmp was so good such a shame i havent heard of it in almost a year it was an smp revolving arround modders and they would use and showcase their mods ingame in order to advance the story and lore of the world i enjoyed them a lot they didnt have that many views but felt fun

Afterlife smp, the best combination of origin smp and x life smp
He only talks about the most popular ones
Judging by the quality of the video I thought that you'd have atleast 50k subs but after realizing that the number was only 200 it left me quite impressed. Well deserved sub.
"Damn this video seems pretty neat, I wonder how-"
"oh 42 subs.... Make that 43 :)"
}
For real man good stuff here. Hope to see you continue in the future.
It has grown by over 100...
@@shanewaslost4283 now 252... how much will we get?
@@shanewaslost4283 Dude, you wrote this two hours ago and it has grown by over 100 again
Good video one thing I’d mention is that dreamsmp isn’t the first smp with the concept of scripting stories and events there was mianite that did it before they did (also the players weren’t aware of the script so it felt more real)
Ive gotta say, the algorythm has for no reason gotten much better at its job. I see videos ive already watched less often and more and more do i see small channels in my recommended. Its gotten to the point that i didnt even realise how small this channel was until i looked at the comments.
and then here i am in belgium where dutch speaking youtube had 'the kingdom' with a fk ton of yters all having kingdoms and viewers being invited
with massive lore and wars actual songs and rap battles, what made it even better was the fact that the benelux is tiny and basically all the yters knew each other irl so the irl lore is also insane, and all of this in like 2012 - 2015
I love that the Spanish SMPs are mostly a handful of RUclipsrs/streamers playing and having a fun time with each other where the role-playing is just some special events. It is more enjoyable and honest than these newer ones. Good examples are: Elitecraft, Piolacraft, Minecrfat extremo, Permadeath, etc
I tried to become the MOST POWERFUL player on this smp, stealing the ? from my enemies and becoming the strongest player. u see, it all started ? days ago when I got attacked in my base/my dog got killed/I went on vacation/I got betrayed. *shows footage* Wait wait wait, ? u say? because on this server, everytime u kill someone u get/upgrade ur ?.
this template for ur slop smp is free to use, enjoy
lmao
I actually started a community smp with close friends last year and it went on pretty well for about a month or two, we had a slowly expanding border and little shops and everything. It was honestly one of the most soothing experiences ive ever had.
ahh yes, the famous 2 week multiplayer minecraft phase. i've had like 5 servers with my friends over the course of like 4 years. none have lasted more than a month, but their memories are still cherished and referenced by us alot
The SDMP is a pretty SMPLIVE like experience, I like it a ton and it kind of feels like a revival of all the creators in SMPLIVE that didn't yet have their chance to shine in a survival SMP. You should cover it sometime! Enjoyed this video a ton, subbed for your enthusiastic character and good writing. Keep it going, tsu :)
Oops I had like 2 minutes left lmao, anyway a big video about the SDMP would still be fun, would love to watch it!
My favorite smp rn is Content SMP, where the plot point is continued by the member custom mod that’ll be add to the server since are chunk of the member are modder
I do love hermitcraft but i sure am glad that it didn't stick like that forever. I love the balance right now of a huge pvp smp and a huge friendly smp
This is why I’m glad that the smp that me and my friend started is completely vanilla minecraft. Just simple and fun.
For anyone curious its called the BrainDead SMP
Its not about views for us, its about having fun.
this is why, im working on a vr smp for the public. tired of these "gotta have conflict" servers
i just want to have some fun, and share it online.
Some VR SMPs already exist lol, like the ones cot Questcraft
@@DiamondDepthYT what do you mean by cot? and questcraft isnt an SMP. its a program to allow minecraft to run standalone on the quest
MindCrack was such a big part of my childhood. Especially season 2, I have watched every VintageBeef season 2 video a few times over the years. That castle was so cool to me and the Gravel door (ifyky) was the first time i ever saw a really cool redstone system.
Woah great video man. I'm grateful to see some people actually making informational and funny videos about topics i enjoy. Not to mention it's 30 minutes man! I can tell you really spent a lot of time editing and writing this and i hope to see more videos in this style, because your personality and passion is in contrast to HUNDREDS of other videos that are similar in style, but just boring. Thanks you for making such a great video on a topic a enjoy, you got my subscription man.
I loved the video, and I also love the type of smps that are more about the sillies and laughs like the qsmp or sdmp.
Great content and a good fucking underrated channel
All these years later, finding out Guude ruined Mindcrack trying to turn it corporate just kinda sucks.
I loved that server, I can't believe *that's* what killed it.
I feel that nowadays for series such as grain’s life series and hermitcraft people’s love for the series stem from their love for the creator playing. Feels like you are watching a funny group of friends again instead of a scripted story with crafted characters
I don't think Yogscast Tekkit gets enough credit for popularizing the idea of the SMP
not even funny how underated this guy is
fr how does he have 49 subscribers
it’s the accent
@@myrinsk na there are other people with the same accent who do these minecraft videos and still are nt this underated
@@kravatafhe’s blowing up now, already got 6x the subscribers
Love how hermitcraft was just chillin in the background for most of the video
Did NOT expect the best Arkasia song to come in at the end there, fit perfectly.
Great video!
honestly, near the end, talking about the lack of passion in the server, i remembered a spanish smp called EliteCraft, it was an amazing series that may come back, created by ElRichMc who also created PermaDeath some years ago (and a second season is "coming soon")
All i wanted to do for an SMP was do a medieval styled one, with structures looking from the era, castles, ect, maybe have a ton of pathways, like elden ring almost, and add one thing - Golden coins/currency, and see what happens and such.
It's sad to see the state of SMPs nowadays, it's just slop for kids to eat up rather than an interesting story told to us like Dream SMP. It's sad that these SMPs went thru MrBeast-ification (if thats how u call it) but atleast hermitcraft exists and is still very massive
Yeah I personally don’t see an end to hermitcraft but I really hope we get out of this generation smps
i resent the implication that the dream smp was an interesting story
Was the dream SMP not slop as well?
might i suggest...Content SMP? Search up Dr.rat and see where that goes.
@@krazysamuraiit absolutely was an interesting story
If you count the Yogscast's stuff like Jaffa Factory, they predate RP in SMP by AAAAGES
You forgot a lot of things, like mentioning the fact that technical Minecraft SMPs exist, a lot of them, full of content creators that really have impacted the Minecraft community overall. Some creators that were on Mindcrack (like Docm77) were also on Sci-Craft (arguably the biggest and longest technical Minecraft SMP to ever exist). Sci-Craft also hosted players like ilmango (widely known for his redstone inventios), gnembon (now an actual Mojang employee) and we could keep going. Not to mention there's still a whole lot of technical Minecraft SMPs as well.
20:34 I remember this, I was on holiday leaving the canary islands. Turned into a bleak day
29:10 i think you can actually see a lot of tecnoblade's influence in newer creators, especially the parts were tecnoblade is doing something, and then it cuts to him explaining in a different world, and another thing, i think whats happening to smps is pretty much what happened before, what starts as a heart to heart interaction and fun ideas, them quickly becomes a content farm that aims for children's attention, which is what ended up killing minecraft before, which relly reinforces the cyclical nature of minecraft in my opnion.
The SDSMP is awesome Jay short has done a great job of making it entertaining with tons of different mods and since there are so many people on the server, you get a mix of whatever you like.
"damn you're underrated!" is probably flooding your notifications rn 💀great vid tho!
While I do like those old SMP's, the only reason I still like them today is because of nostalgia.
ofc, things get old after awhile, it makes complete since you dont get the same excitement at plain vanilla minecraft the 100th time seeing it. the only problem is that the servers were focused on fun and friends back then, and now its all for fame and money. i'd get bored if i tried to rewatch all of these old smp's i used to love, but i still miss the culture back then.
Amazing SMP retrospective video honestly, even if you should have definitely talked about the later days of Hermitcraft and how it not giving up eventually DID pay off, with Seasons 6 & above becoming its very best and so on. _(Also, SMP overview with zero mentions of Grian? Damn)._
An interesting and thought-provoking tale of how long-running Minecraft series were born and killed... And how despite all that Hermitcraft managed to live and reach this modern day and age stronger than ever! Just like how I like to say... *Mindcrack walked so Hermitcraft could run,* and boy oh boy did Hermitcraft run indeed!
genuinely started tweaking when I heard outer wilds music, bravo to you for having impeccable taste
I've only seen one comment mentioning my favourite SMP named Mianite. It came before SMPLive and had scripted events like the DreamSMP did, though it was much more fantasy based. I watched CaptainSparklez perspective most of the time and I remember having to book it home after school because the stream started 10 minutes after school finished. That series was actually the reason I made a Twitch account. I'd seriously recommend it to anyone who likes the DreamSMP
I do love the life series, I’m a little tired on hermitcraft but I always come back to watch all the life series, and I also watch lifesteal smp who feels like a chill smp a smp where everyone are just having fun!
this is for sure gonna blow up. nice video, nice editing, nice commentary.
I like the premise of the video but I have a few criticisms:
- I would recommend backing up from the mic when yelling because it sounds awful no matter how low I turn the volume.
- This video I think does not properly express the longevity of Hermitcraft. While a lot of other SMPs burned hard and burned fast, Hermitcraft has been very careful to keep the series somewhat fresh without going so far as to alienate their viewers and as a result has gained a very dedicated and very happy fanbase. It feels more laid back than a lot of other series and I can guarantee that it is a hell of a lot less stressful for the members to participate compared to a lot of other modern series. This, in combination with the fact that the biggest drama in its history was incredibly tame in the grand scheme of things, I think has really contributed to its survival.
And a not-really-a-criticism: The Hermitcraft members and co. sometimes host their own lifesteal-esque SMPs around once a year. The whole series is barely ever full on conflict until the very end and generally stays in the realm of tasteful and thoroughly entertaining mischief which some may or may not like but I really enjoyed.
bro those fanfics are CRAZZZZYYYY
You should talk about the Back To Beta SMP
This guy is a hidden gem bro
There are also SMP's with a lot of mods in them, but are designed in a way that no one has an advantage.
Gonna agree with one of the other comments that I wish there was a mention of the Yogscast multiplayer series. Their original LP which became Shadow of Israphel, the many modpack series, etc. Those and Mindcrack were my first exposure to SMPs.
Gonna add here that I'm also glad that Hermitcraft has had such longevity. I as a Mindcrack fan used to dislike Hermitcraft until I gave MumboJumbo a shot many years ago.
super fucking underrated, only 50 subs, now made 51. remember me when you're famous
What about the yogscast role play one
Bro great storytelling, scriptwriting, and editing. You may be a small channel, but this video was well done even for your sheer size. I thought you had probably 20-30k subs 😅, well now your one sub closer.
I love the video , one lil thing that bothered me is that it felt like you were rushing the recording and i could barely understand some parts sounding like mumbling
I can't believe you didn't talk about the Back to Beta SMP!
I played Minecraft back in 2010 and I can’t say there weren’t crazy wars and factions. I also can’t say things weren’t slower but they were still chaotic
What's crazy is that Carson, Wilbur, and Dream all have a controversy related to them.
I’m surprised that you didn’t mention Mianite at all, it was the largest SMP on twitch for quite a while. It was also the first to add a written story to the mix, way way way before Dream SMP
the hyper-edited SMP's are part of the reason i stopped making minecraft content. loving Hermitcraft and The Life Series (the Grain one) though
to anyone new watching this, may i recommend Dr.rat and content smp? A crew of modders, slightly scripted, but more roleplayed over scripted events, with everyone being able to add their own mod/mods to the server.
Insanely good quality video for such a small channel, good job!
9:26 the image words are crazy bruh
it translates to "you f word n word, this is my ice cream"
0:21 with the dsmp, you WERE involved, per example, the l’manburg election, the viewers got to vote for the president of lmanburg
Great video, nice to see small channels with quality videos popping up on my home page. This video I would say is very professionally done especially for someone so ‘small’ I hope to replicate one day lol. Anyways I just wanted to throw in another very popular smp called Mianite which I also consider one of the grandfathers of modern smps. Most of what they did there was different from other smps at the time where they introduced storylines into the series. Still waiting on season 3 but it’s all but gone 😢
Infuse,levels, and bliss also lifesteal. These SMP had great content, plus the betrayals were funny and great
Just dropping a comment to say great video tsu! Cannot believe reading some of these comments you had under 50subs about 48 hours ago. Love the content, keep it up!
I was too young for Mindcrack, and I wanted to get into the other SMPs. But technoblade, Vannoss, Wilbur and others were just too griefy.
I always found their personalities coarse.
Hermitcraft was just right for me
the only smp I was checking up on from time to-time was MineShield, which's season 4 ended this year, so I'm smp-free since now.
I feel like you didnt cover enough of hermitcraft and/or the Life series and the other ones that came after which were bangers.
i'll be honest, im surprised noone ever mentions the dutch minecraft kingdom series from 11 years ago. it was truly ahead of its time
mijn jeugd 🙏
I think there's definitely a couple more that schlatt has been a part of that deserved a mention like sdmp and epic smp which were pretty cool. There was also a tekkit smp schlatt was a part of. Kind a wild just how man there have been though.
6:45 I know outer wilds when I hear it! Great vid btw!
you did a really good job at delivery this video. i really appreciate someone that speaks their minds as if it's mine.
I found a smp with smaller content creators that is similar to Hermitcraft. The smp is called Unorthoblocks and is currently season 3.
"I won't go into QSMP as it is still really new" and I'm here like "wait, that's still going?"
@tsupuffy I’m sorry to say you may or may not see a new smp appear sometime this summer or soon
Didn’t mention HTM smp.( pixelmon island is basically the same the same smp but with pixelmon mod)
ngl I literally just learned what SMP means. every time I've seen that acronym I've thought "super mario party".
:ddd
the only smps ive ever played on were private ones with friends that were not at all structured and had no real goals besides beat the game. personally i think thats more fun than the current definition of an smp
Everyone in my friends smp wants to be the villain or most powerful when i just want friends hanging out and building😢
22:22 THE WAY HE SAID MAPICC BRO
90gq is one of the first smp's in the world they started around when multiplayer got added i think 1-2 days after and its one of the ogs that still exists like an og its just poeple building and doing things in minecraft
You should all try out The Pond or The Puddle, both are modded servers that doesnt focus on pvp and all that
I'm kinda surprised you didn't go into how hermitcraft went from 2018 onwards as even through DSMP and such that style stayed popular
this was some truly amazing content for someone that is just staring out on youtube keep up the great work ill def be looking out for your next video loved the enthusiasm behind it! if your looking to do a new mc series you should check out treasurewars that just came out again (lachlans old server) under new management but all the same old feels
This is incredible profesional for someone second video
This was great and very well researched video, and honestly goes over the sort of Rise and Falls of the SMP Genre in spectacular detail
contentsmp was so good such a shame i havent heard of it in almost a year it was an smp revolving arround modders and they would use and showcase their mods ingame in order to advance the story and lore of the world i enjoyed them a lot they didnt have that many views but felt fun
theres is absolutely no way you have under 1000 subscibers WHAT THE HELL!?!?!? THIS IS THE BEST CONTENT IVE SEEN IN SO LONG
