I completely forgot the bad omen potions were a new thing in 1.21. When you killed the banner guy I was like "OH NO GEM, DONT KILL HIM, YOULL START A RAID NOOOOO... oh, oh right"
A fiery red/orange vibe for the village would fit perfectly! As it contrasts with the blue surroundings but also, because of the coal mine vibe and the villagers trying to keep themselves warm, it would literally look like a warmed up village in the middle of the cold biome
@@mythology_my_beloved The twelve villages once rose and fought against her. Sadly, they were GeminiSlayed and now she roams from village to village collecting sacrifices for her sick and twisted games. Nowhere is safe. Even if it takes her ten more hardcore series to travel to the necessary villages, she will persevere and eventually destroy the willpower and livelihoods of every villager that ever stood against her. Make no mistake, she is not some villager-loving sucker. The front she puts on - stocking their fires with coal, building fickle walls to shield them from an event of her own causation - just an appeal to the masses, a publicity stunt to mask the hatred and vitriol that dictates her every action. She is inexorable, efficient and single-minded in her destruction, spending months building a bond with a village only to take greater satisfaction in its downfall. She is no angel of mercy, but rather one of disease, starvation, torture and sadism.
for the paths, i always love seeing diorite and calcite paths because it looks like cobblestones with snow on them and the diorite doesnt look too bad when paired with snow
maybe you could build a winter clothing shop that also substitutes as a cow/sheep farm? it could also add to the lore of the village because the villagers would need to stay warm when theyre outside!:)
Great idea! And next to the mine, a tool shop that sells pickaxes... wasn't there a villager who does that? OH! And another villager to sell helmets! Can't go into a mine/cave without a helmet!
You probably want to add some decorative shovels around. Snow biomes I’ve lived in, in the past have gotten so snowy that my buildings legitimately got covered. You can fix that with light sources. Don’t put torches or anything on snow blocks! It’ll melt and break the torch.
@@shadowfire-yg4sd it didn’t help I was on a multiplayer server where my base was at spawn. I may have suffocated a couple times because there was so much snow
If you use a dynamic lights mod and shoot arrows with a flame bow, it lights up the surroundings. Not sure if you meant that kind of torch arrows or something else
the chimeny looks dirty, that is exactly how a coal chimeny would look like! like dark on the top for all the smoke. you are so good at painting with the blocks its amazing
Here on episode 3, Gem is already risking losing her series to build over a pit that will be certain to bring her to a swift end if she falls in. The life of a builder is a dangerous one indeed. Love the progress, the crane and building look great!!
I like how you went from a warm, colorful biome to a cold, desolate snow biome in this hardcore world. The coal mine outpost looks really cool. Perhaps for paths you could use a mix of calcite and diorite, to make it look like trampled snow.
I began thinking about District 12 the moment she started talking about it being a coal mining village, and I was so pleased when she brought up the Hunger Games herself!
the music that plays while building is giving me nostalgia from hermitcraft season 8 when you were building your cottagecore palace while doc and ren's lost goat was watching...hard to believe it's been 3 years since then , and even more since your 1.16 hardcore series !! i loved the previous one , i binge it from time to time , and i love this one as well !! :D
Path blocks or stairs (maybe slabs) would be the best things for paths, as they don’t get covered with snow, while full blocks do. So if you want visible paths, that unfortunately means no blocks that will be covered by snow. Or you could have them lit up every like five steps, but that also feels excessive. Options are unfortunately limited in a snowy biome like this!
Gem taking coal in chests, (in a village) which is very normal and creating lore for her village is insane and I applaud her creativity and love her content because of it!
About the color theme for the village... I feel like red would still be very related/close to pink ( i don't know if that's the intention ) but i think a dark green would fit very well with the deepslate, spruce and spruce leaves very well too. Green would also be a contrast to ( light ) blue and the pink/purple theme of the other village. But this is only a suggestion! Have a lovely day!!
If you think about it, both coal and diamonds are made from carbon, so the lore could be that the villagers mined coal to survive but now that there is a new chief in town they finally are digging deep enough to get diamonds 😊
the tons of amethyst you keep finding would make for a great in-world reason to connect the villages! they trade the amethyst for fish or something from the pink village :D
This series is so refreshing and fun, it really feels like you’ve brought us back into the action again! Series like this are how I fell in love with your channel in the first place! Thanks so much Gem! ❤
I too have experienced the wonders of survival building, when i built my base on top of a mountain in a dark oak biome. I had to build a staircase down while within spawn range of a giant open cave that was filled with creepers and skeletons
i'd love if the village had a warm colour theme !! to contrast the blue ice and otherwise cool colours, and keep up the idea of villagers trying to keep warm :)
Orange is a complementary color to blue, both green and red (on its own) looks good with spruce and dark oak (and stone) red makes it feel “warmer” and “cozier” while I personally really like green with spruce lol
My main issue with Java vs bedrock right now is that structures are different. I loaded up this seed to try and take inspiration from you and get some building practice, but I’m building in a completely different place at a village that doesn’t even exist in your world! But it is still an awesome village, so it works out!
Totally loving this series! It's been SO long since I've watched you play, w/o other players. I found you SO long ago, when you started in a Dark Oak forest, near water, and way back before the pandemic! LOL! Glad to see you still at it, and enjoying the game. Thx for all you do Gem! ❤
While I don't know the lore of the coal mine, my head canon is that villagers are the ones using it, which is the reason that most of the villager's chests had coal in it. Therefore, it would make sense for the "living quarters" to have multiple beds and probably some small kitchen. Also, the crane is too small because there's no way that the crane reaches the bottom. You can fix it by lengthening the wooden part or making the "rope" longer
Red would be an excellent choice for the village, so bright and cheerful! That color is in fact commonly used in Nordic countries, as well. You sounded surprised about the length of the Bad Omen effect. That has always been 1:40, five full day/night cycles.
Hey Gem you should put some powdered snow down at the bottom of the ravine whenever you're working over it! You can just put cauldrons out and they'll start to fill up with powdered snow when it snows and you'll have a nice safe landing that's not a glaring eyesore (or will freeze over) in this wintery landscape. Just wear leather boots while you're building and you'll be fine! Might be a pain to get back up that cliff if you fall off but at least you'll not lose your world.
I think a good idea would be using orange as the village color. Orange being the opposite color of blue would contrast really well with the ice and snow.
Always admire how you do the story in your building that makes sense from real-ish village perspective. I think, toolsmith might be a nice and reasonable addition to the mine entrance. Imagine toolsmith to fix pickaxes and other tools for the miners who go down to get some coal for the village
So two lil tips: You can use the map table to expand your map/zoom out so you can get your whole village in a single map. You can also put a ring of paper around your map in the crafting table to do the same thing. If you put hay bales in a column underneath the campfire, the smoke will go higher. So if you have a chimney in a cross configuration, you can hide hay bales inside to make a really tall smoke column float out the top.
Something that pops into my head when I think of a coal mine is a dirty rug by the doors and an old elevator that is super rusty and broken up but the locals swear it works perfectly fine even though it’s missing parts
I think a red/orange theme would go great in this area! As I mentioned before, colors really contrast against light tones of the snow and ice. Love the build Gem! Cant wait for the next upload!
Thanks for the inspiration! My favorite part was the stairs going down into the ravine, I'm going to have to try doing that! Thanks for sharing your vibe and amazing building skills.
I would love to see the crane get a little bit bigger and the beam in the middle higher, cuz then you could add "rope" (fence etc.) between the counterweight, beam and rope down.
An really cool idea would be to put an automatic minecart chest unloader so you can just fill up the chest at the bottom of the mine when your inventory fills up, that way you don’t have to go all the way back to the surface if you aren’t done mining! It would also add to the lore by making it seem as though they’re innovating ways to get coal to the town faster while the miners are still down working 😄
I definitely like the warmer vibe for the village, I think it would be a nice contrast to the harsh, snowy environment. I even think it might be nice to include several nether blocks for the villagers to use as heat/power sources, and there could be a collection operation going on around the portal.
I think the red is great but you could do like a sunset gradient with orange and yellow too. I was thinking about it and orange is blues complimentary color so a sunset would not only contrast but also compliment the blue and white landscape tat surrounds your village.
I’m loving this world! It reminds me of my nomadic style living in one of my survival worlds where the goal was to set up an outpost in every major overworld biome. It would be cool if you ended up improving one of every type of village!
Gem you could use deepslate coal with smooth basalt to give the idea that the coal is wet as it has been took from a watrer cave. Hope this helps you with your lore ❤ keep up the amazing work ❤️ 🧡 💛 💚 💙 💜 -Monke
GEM! i love the music in the background with the placing/ breaking of the blocks its so calmimg! You are the best to watch in the mornings to get my day started. Thank you so much (hope to see u Tuesday for the stream!)
12:54 Omg I was waiting for the hunger games reference the entire time I was watching the coal mine being built. Embrace the smog grunge vibe of District 12... Yess...
I always love watching your videos, it does not matter if it is HC or Hermitcraft. Your voice and demeanor is always so calm and relaxing, it is so soothing and calming to listen to you.. AND I just loooove your builds ;-)
Since you're adding a coal mine into the ravine, it would be pretty cool if you brought back the hole in the middle of the town and turned it into a central coal storage for the entire town. Could be a crane at the top pulling some out.
Every time I see a video from Gem I always try to find time just watch it, her videos are just so entertaining and I get a lot of ideas on what to build in me and my friends realm. Shes by far one of my favorite RUclipsrs ever and I take a lot of inspiration for my builds off her
Establish some paths by either using slabs to prevent snow cover, or lean into the snow cover and just border some implicit paths with fences and lights
Please don't venture out or wait a few episodes. It's nice to see you working with the things the snowy biomes provide you with, it feels more realistic and ambient in my opinion, which I really like.
For the ravine I would cover it in stone bricks and then make a blacksmith with all you furnaces and ores inside, then when u run out of stuff, beak some of the floor and dive into the cave
You said color pallette with spruce and dark oak and I immediately thought ohhh mangrove, just because that's one of my favorite sets to use. I don't know if it would be dark enough red though, but definitely I like the idea of a red next to the blue ice.
Dear Gem, when I by chance came upon your hardcore world 1.16, I subscribed with the first episode. I loved everthing about you and your content - your building style, your personality and because you never build 1-block-prisons for villagers and farm animals. To that I can relate, because I am never doing that either. And downloading this map, I also changed the village very nicely. Being a minecraft addict and hermitcraft fan I soon thought, what a wonderful addition to the hermits you would be. And - tadaaa! This made me very happy and I never miss your vids. Carry on, may you prosper and reach 2 milions subscribers soon! Greetings from an old lady from Germany ❤
This video was inspiring; my first Minecraft world was also in a snowy biome. In my opinion, it is really hard to build in it. Everything just gets covered in snow. Maybe if Mojang toned down a little bit, it would be better. This episode took me back to that time. I remember when I was building a big spruce house, it was so ugly, but it is really nostalgic, I'm sad that I don’t have it anymore.
Making the village red would indicate it's pretty rich imo. I can't think of any red blocks you can access in this biome, which indicates a few things. Either this village is rich enough to import the blocks, or they are an outpost of a richer city or country and made a statement piece in the form of a village. I think either would work here. They're sitting on top of a gigantic mine, with access to iron, gold, diamonds, and lapis: all wonderful exports.
Gem, I have no clue how you just build. It takes me hours just to decide on a design and it DOESNT EVEN LOOK HALF AS GOOD AS YOURS!!!! You are so good and I would love to build just like you. I hope you have an amazing day ❤
I’m sad whenever you don’t post and it makes my day when you do post❤️ I love your channel it’s my favorite thing to watch I was watching your channel for like a year or two or three idk but for a while 💗✨ and your building is the best! I could never do this that good!!🫶🏻🦋✨ your amazing
You have just enough diamond ore to start doing some redstone now.... (wait, wrong channel, wrong series) I love the cute builds you're making in this new village!
With every new update, I love Mojang/Microsoft add new decorative blocks to this game! Such a pleasant time seeing builders arrange more unique and building-specific designs 🤩 such as that tuff stone bricks
when you expand the manor. you should also make a big winter lodge for the village. it'll be like a meeting place/warm area. like the ones you see in Scotland or norse mythology kinda. hopefully that makes sense!!
ive been binging you more than usual lately, you just inspire me sm and motivate me when building especially with the world building details and im thriving !
You should be careful with dropping into a water block because I have had it before where I died by falling on the edge of the block! As a precaution you could perhaps make a 3x3 source of water instead of just one block. The pillagers got yeeted, lmao!! I love the mine. It looks fantastic! Perhaps you can make a giant pickaxe statue above it or next to it.
Ik it’s a paranoid behavior but a tip I always give at caving is lighting up all the upper crevices in particular in caves? Creepers can spawn up there and do you in, because they ignite _midair_ if falling from most high points
I pretty much picked up the habit after I saw how Tango died in double life because of it lmao That and Philza, when he was exploring the caves and cliffs snapshot, he pointed the crevices out first: “See those points? Mobs spawn in 0 light level, and your torchlight can’t reach from the floor” I saw the stream, thought it was overkill, then Tango’s DL death made me realize it wasn’t in fact _too_ overkill
I completely forgot the bad omen potions were a new thing in 1.21. When you killed the banner guy I was like "OH NO GEM, DONT KILL HIM, YOULL START A RAID NOOOOO... oh, oh right"
I was the opposite, when Gem avoided the first raiding party I thought she forgot/didn't know about the potions in the new update
wait... there are potions??
just looked em up, thats pretty useful
me to i was like no no no dont do it
I was so confused abt why she got a potion instead of it happening immediately, until I saw this comment😅
A fiery red/orange vibe for the village would fit perfectly! As it contrasts with the blue surroundings but also, because of the coal mine vibe and the villagers trying to keep themselves warm, it would literally look like a warmed up village in the middle of the cold biome
Agreed
It would kinda be like empire s2
Exactly what I thought. I feel like red can also mean war so I was actually thinking of more of a yellow/orange color.
ohhh that’s awesome
My thoughts exactly
Gem, embrace the hunger games aesthetic. Pick 24 villagers and leave them to fend for themselves in a raid. You can't let them get complacent.
I second this but it might take a few years for the population to be big enough. Maybe between multiple villages?

The sheltered space where the lava collection and the chimney is is begging for some sort of small wagon or cart to transport coal to other villages!

Every time I see a video from Gem I always try to find time just watch it, her videos are just so entertaining and I get a lot of ideas on what to build in me and my friends realm. Shes by far one of my favorite RUclipsrs ever and I take a lot of inspiration for my builds off her
I really like this build! The coal building turned out so good. The stairs and crane really tie it all together.
I would love to see a mine cart system on that inner stairwell to get materials up to the smelter. Maybe with a big winch on top for lore.
Establish some paths by either using slabs to prevent snow cover, or lean into the snow cover and just border some implicit paths with fences and lights
Please don't venture out or wait a few episodes. It's nice to see you working with the things the snowy biomes provide you with, it feels more realistic and ambient in my opinion, which I really like.
For the ravine I would cover it in stone bricks and then make a blacksmith with all you furnaces and ores inside, then when u run out of stuff, beak some of the floor and dive into the cave
red village with the mangrove + cherry blossom wood would look sooooo good omgg or even nether blocks for gradients :O
You said color pallette with spruce and dark oak and I immediately thought ohhh mangrove, just because that's one of my favorite sets to use. I don't know if it would be dark enough red though, but definitely I like the idea of a red next to the blue ice.
Dear Gem, when I by chance came upon your hardcore world 1.16, I subscribed with the first episode. I loved everthing about you and your content - your building style, your personality and because you never build 1-block-prisons for villagers and farm animals. To that I can relate, because I am never doing that either. And downloading this map, I also changed the village very nicely. Being a minecraft addict and hermitcraft fan I soon thought, what a wonderful addition to the hermits you would be. And - tadaaa! This made me very happy and I never miss your vids.
Carry on, may you prosper and reach 2 milions subscribers soon! Greetings from an old lady from Germany ❤
This video was inspiring; my first Minecraft world was also in a snowy biome. In my opinion, it is really hard to build in it. Everything just gets covered in snow. Maybe if Mojang toned down a little bit, it would be better. This episode took me back to that time. I remember when I was building a big spruce house, it was so ugly, but it is really nostalgic, I'm sad that I don’t have it anymore.
Making the village red would indicate it's pretty rich imo. I can't think of any red blocks you can access in this biome, which indicates a few things. Either this village is rich enough to import the blocks, or they are an outpost of a richer city or country and made a statement piece in the form of a village.
I think either would work here. They're sitting on top of a gigantic mine, with access to iron, gold, diamonds, and lapis: all wonderful exports.
Gem, I have no clue how you just build. It takes me hours just to decide on a design and it DOESNT EVEN LOOK HALF AS GOOD AS YOURS!!!! You are so good and I would love to build just like you. I hope you have an amazing day ❤
I’m sad whenever you don’t post and it makes my day when you do post❤️ I love your channel it’s my favorite thing to watch I was watching your channel for like a year or two or three idk but for a while 💗✨ and your building is the best! I could never do this that good!!🫶🏻🦋✨ your amazing
I love it I love it I love it That zigzag staircase looks so good!
You have just enough diamond ore to start doing some redstone now.... (wait, wrong channel, wrong series) I love the cute builds you're making in this new village!
With the new Hunger Games book coming out next year, a coal mine aesthetic is DEFINITELY the way to go!
that’s exactly what i was thinking! :)
I love how you are so happy about the tuff, despite having used it since February😂
Never change gem❤
I don’t think I used much new tuff stuff on hermitcraft
@@GeminiTayMC maybe you should………. /j
Your base looks insane either way. Also, thank you for replying to my comment. It literally made my day💙
I came home from work really exhausted and I was so happy when I saw you uploaded!!! Your videos just make my day
With every new update, I love Mojang/Microsoft add new decorative blocks to this game! Such a pleasant time seeing builders arrange more unique and building-specific designs 🤩 such as that tuff stone bricks
Would Love to see a comfy and cozy Tavern for the villagers to gather and get warm after a hard days worl.
when you expand the manor. you should also make a big winter lodge for the village. it'll be like a meeting place/warm area. like the ones you see in Scotland or norse mythology kinda. hopefully that makes sense!!
ive been binging you more than usual lately, you just inspire me sm and motivate me when building especially with the world building details and im thriving !
You should be careful with dropping into a water block because I have had it before where I died by falling on the edge of the block! As a precaution you could perhaps make a 3x3 source of water instead of just one block. The pillagers got yeeted, lmao!! I love the mine. It looks fantastic! Perhaps you can make a giant pickaxe statue above it or next to it.
Gem if you ever need more iron you could try to find an iron vein. Its just iron surrounded by tuff and sometimes you can find a raw iron block
Ik it’s a paranoid behavior but a tip I always give at caving is lighting up all the upper crevices in particular in caves?
Creepers can spawn up there and do you in, because they ignite _midair_ if falling from most high points
I pretty much picked up the habit after I saw how Tango died in double life because of it lmao
That and Philza, when he was exploring the caves and cliffs snapshot, he pointed the crevices out first: “See those points? Mobs spawn in 0 light level, and your torchlight can’t reach from the floor”
I saw the stream, thought it was overkill, then Tango’s DL death made me realize it wasn’t in fact _too_ overkill
