Love the chat message they missed at the end. "Game: Even I would have cheated on that level."
They got called out and didn't even notice
I have really really missed the Minecraft content. The one adventure map that Lewis and Simon always did with Christmas was basically my favourite Christmas present. When they didn’t do it last year, it really made me sad. I’ll take this as a sort of delayed Christmas present. Thank you Yogscast for being amazing!
Do you Diversity?
grow up
@@TheAngelArrow Don't be an ass.
Literally same that Christmas adventure map is so cute and i love it
@@TheAngelArrowi did. With yogscast and with minecraft. They have a very special place in my heart.
Hey map creator here! Honestly only cheating on the piston puzzle is still a really solid puzzle playthrough. You guys definitely could have gotten it though! Love seeing the series of this old map of mine continue. If the series suddenly ends I’m guessing that’s when they hit the Maze section. LOL good luck💀
That's foreboding. I can't wait.
cool map dude!
@@pacosoentken303 ❤️
Yay map maker finally watching their corrections in action.
Were you aware of the yogscast before this?
Poor Ravs and Boba. They failed Lewis during the jumping puzzel and now they are inn YogsJail until he lets them out.
Such a shame, they were both MVP during the button finding maps
In adventure mode, you can't break or place blocks ordinarily. However, map makers can spawn in items with tags that allow you to use them: blocks that can be only be placed on a specific type of block and items that can be used to break a specific type of block.
When Lewis enchanted the diamond pickaxe with silk touch, I think that the map detected the presence of a silk touch pickaxe and removed it from his inventory so it could be replaced with a silk touch pickaxe that is allowed to break glass. It probably ended up in Duncan's inventory because the /give command is set to target a random player instead of whichever player made the silk touch pickaxe
Mostly right, but rather than a random player its nearest. Duncan was closer to the anvil, which is probably were the command block running the detection is under.
One obvious use of this is in the first episode, there was a button that Ben found that had a tag that said it could be placed on a crafting table.
one of the minigames 'Mob Melodies' was cut. They even reference it in the last room
Copyright strike? lol
Yea noticed them saying "oh we only have this one left" whilst the looking at the one they didnt do.
😮Drama
I was sad they skipped because I was curious, but by the sounds of it, it was audio hell lol
I wonder why it was cut
I cannot over emphasize how glad I am they've got Barry. Without him you know they'd pepega every single puzzle and just cheat. That's funny now and then, but much more satisfying to see them actually complete the challenges.
And I'm just glad to see him again, he's only ever really on his own Twitch channel lately and I'm almost never on that site
@@gg_sam7847 He's been on Duncan's channel non-stop for a long time and it's been great! They just did over a year of vault hunters and now he and Duncan are doing a Pokemon/Starew Minecraft modpack.
@@gg_sam7847He plays Minecraft on duncans channel.
@@gg_sam7847 Barry plays a lot of Minecraft with Duncan on Duncan's channel
You’re kidding me that cauldron level took me so long 😭 My solution was to make a chest boat and pain stakingly smelt the iron stuff into nuggets and smuggle them through a level reset by putting them into the boat until I had enough for a bucket
Why did you think that was the best solution?😂
@@finleyjennings6051 if it works it works lol
The speed at which Harry digests information on screen, arranges inventory and crafts stuff is bonkers. He's like the Kim Peek of Minecraft.
I love how the map creator even says they would have cheated on that one too lmao
Are they in the comments?
@@MDG-mykysNo it was in the chat
which one do they think they cheated on
@@ZSneakyTurtleMan 23:22
@@ZSneakyTurtleMan 21:34 Not a major cheat, but the chat message at the end after seeing that was hilarious
that first puzzle be like
lewis:"do you think we should use the things they gave us to solve the puzzle."
everyone else:"are you crazy, quit wasting our time we're trying to solve a puzzle" (i understand they didn't think it would break because of adventure mode)
Yeah it seemed too obvious I think. And if they're in adventure mode they can't break anything unless it specifically says. That's why when Lewis made the pickaxe Duncan magically got it- the map probably deleted the real one and gave them one that would work.
@@cameroncoyle5506 oh shit thats how that happened i thought it was a weird bug, that's pretty smart lol
Actually makes so much sense lol. I thought Lewis forgot to take it out, and it just fell on the ground@@cameroncoyle5506
6:25 ENGLUND!
The Yogs: look at a blue, cyan, purple and light blue wall
Ben: "so it's pink, purple..."
Yogscast guarantee ending, got to love it 😅
My new favorite series!
Friendly reminder that people ask for Minecraft content and it’s still less received than TTT. Please support the content you want to see.
The reason the pickaxe disappeared From Lewis' inventory and appeared in Duncan's is the enchanted pick was replaced by an adventure mode pick configured to be allowed to break glass, Duncan was in the closest location to where the game assumed you would be when you get the pick so he got the pick instead of Lewis. This is pretty standard trick in adventure mode games for getting a player the tool with the specific permissions.
They did so good! They didn't cheat until the very last one lol. But then it wouldn't be the Yogscast Guarantee if they didn't cheat at least once.
I'm so happy y'all have returned to this kind of content, so much fun and sprinkled with a healthy dose of nostalgia.
Professor Grizwald would be proud
kinda miss boba and ravs, kinda LOVE duncan and barry
boba and ravs were best bois. barry and duncan are also best bois
Og Simon and Lewis gang gang 💪
Damn nostalgia just hit hard when i saw yogscast minecraft content released 16 hours ago instead of 8 years
Yes more Minecraft adventure maps please!! Bring back the good old days!
Ben listing the colors as cyan pink purple blue was really upsetting for some reason
3:23 What they missed is that when Lewis crafted the pickaxe it strangely disappeared and then Duncan magically had it. That's because the game swapped out the pickaxe for one with a "can break glass in adventure mode" tag. Pretty standard fare for puzzle maps.
God Duncan in that redstone puzzle hurt. I get that redstone can be complicated, but you'd think after the like fifth time doing it he'd realize the repeater points *away* from where you are facing every time. Then again, this lot still haven't figured out how stairs in Minecraft work and they're basically the same system.
These are a really nice chill set of vids, loving these
so much better with harry and duncan and not messing around all the time
Did they cut out an "animal noises" puzzle they referenced? 😡
This was tons of fun, really cool map design as well
Ben: "Cyan pink purple blue"
This is the Vault Hunters collab I always wanted
I don't get how you guys can struggle so much on easier puzzles but also absolutely crush it on some of the harder stuff...
For those curious as to why some of the puzzles worked in adventure mode, there’s special commands that add tags to items which let you use them to break specific blocks or place them on specific blocks.
If you pay enough attention, you’ll notice each of the redstone placing rooms have different floors, which prevents you from placing the next room’s redstone in the previous room
This series is really fun hope you guys will do more things like it ij the future
I am so happy with all the Minecraft content lately!!
23:25 "Even I would have cheated on that Level" THEY KNEW!!!! xD
Loving these videos!! : ) like a blast from the past
That song reference was amazing, Lewis. I was waiting for you to snap and shout, "Shut up when I'm talking to you!" Just for comedic effect. 😂
Keep persistin' and beat those pistons
Love it! Barry is the G of MC
Drawing in the last part of a maze: "yay we did it!" while leaving the rest blank 😅
I love that we get to see how Baller the PC Harry is using is hahaha
RIP to Mob Melody getting cut.
Chances are it'll be a members video. :(
Lmao 23:21 the game says in the chat when they complete the piston puzzle “even I would have cheated on that level”
This episode proved Duncan is only smart when it comes to modded Minecraft
Love the Minecraft content! Keep it up :D
In adventure mode you can only break blocks if you’re using the right tool: wood = axe, stone/glass I guess = pick, etc
I'm pretty sure when lewis crafted the diamond pick with silk touch, it got replaced by a similar tool with the property "can break glass" which is why duncan picked it up because the command blocks just dropped it onto lewis.
Yay minecraft is back
I hope Simon comes back for a dropper map!
In Adventure Mode, you need to use the right tools to break a block.
Thank god they had Larry to help out!
Oy, did they make the "Mob Music" one a Member Exclusive? Why?
Huh?
@@ConTheBeast They skipped a whole puzzle, but referenced doing it. I assume the members will be able to see it in the full cut, but IDK why they cut it here.
@@robbiegarber898Probably some kind of copyright strike risk, better not to test your luck with UA-cam and music
@@Guardsman_Shaxx Hadn't considered that, that makes sense.
So far there is no members video on that
Would have been fun If in each session there were different people.
Well at least they completed the level, even if they didn't know basic redstone.
13:00
I like this stuff its a nice mixup
Ben lowkey has 200iq
16:25 and to think that Harry wanted to do hardcore parkor
lew-lew with the One Step Closer linkin park reference, very cool much wow
Lovely alliteration right there
I do miss Boba and Ravs, I do enjoy the videos regardless but poor Bobs, she finally got the TNT Yogscast cheat checked off her bucket list and vanished.
It's just like Vault Hunters but with Lewis
harry pro minecrafter
Good stuff
I’m so glad you cheated on that last puzzle. I’m sure it’s great to do yourself, but I have a feeling it would had been like watching 4 people solve a Rubik’s cube.
That piston room was an inside out rubix cube with only two colours. Absolute torture.
17:14 definitely not taking a screenshot
I read this as "bristol pusher breaks our brains"
I'm horrified at their lack of minecraft knowledge that only Lewis thought the silk touch on the glass would work.
these couple of vids with barry on the main channel playing Minecraft make me wonder why he doesn't do the gartic phone vids haha is it cuz he's too good where he's an artist? lol
too many cooks on the last puzzle
What's the OF on Duncan's cape?
It's an Optifine Cape. You get it when you donate to Optifine and use their mod. But you shouldn't use Optifine (especially with mods) because it breaks your game
@@BanditLeader cheers. I thought it was a solidarity thing for all the yogs women on only fans
Why cut out the mob symphony puzzle?
Where’s Simon 😢😢
2:51 what actually happened that made Duncan get the pickaxe suddenly? Lewis clearly placed it in his inventory
let's goooooooooo
Please tell Barry to stop going back and forth with third person
cool
Why make it so confined?
How about you think about that for a minute. How do you move a block with pistons? 1 tile per move. Now how do you use pistons? By placing them where they need to be.
It's confined because it has to be. The previous puzzle could be made more open because it was 2D. This one can't be made like that, since it uses all 3 dimensions.
Please bring back Ravs in this series he was really great in the first episode!
Less great and more "Lucky"
@@Uindus I meant from an entertainment perspective bro if you’re here to see a map done well I don’t think the yogscast is the best choice to watch lmao
@Geobeetle I mean you can say that about any member of the Yogs they all make videos more entertaining!
@@UindusTrue enough. I just like Ravs’ humor :)
Comment for algorithm
why are they so defeatist about everything? ben especially, blankly disliking something because it's vaguely complex. i hope i don't become like this
That's what annoys me so much about them. They're great and entertaining to watch, but nowadays the second anything is, as you said, *vaguely* complex they just give up immediately and start cheating. Thus they never learn anything either because they just cheat through it. It's like I remember a long time ago on a sky island pack Lewis tried to place a door and couldn't get it to place after like 2 tries so he just deemed all doors from that mod "bugged". Like didn't even bother to really try. Just instantly went defeatist mode and gave up.
Well Part of that is them cutting around the uninteresting bits to make the episode better. Nobody wants to see them just sit there for 20 minutes in the same room making absolutely no progress as they repeatedly fail to understand what to do.
They also reference another puzzle related to animal noises that wasn’t seen, so I can only assume that wasn’t very good for content and was cut.
@@RutilusMonachus Even if that was the case, which it's not here, they'd at least reference how long they've been there. They've done it many times before. If they don't, the editors make some sort of joke about it.
@@Eventide215 what do you mean? All of their content lately is heavily edited, they’ve even made jokes in TTT about how heavily edited it is, and how incomprehensible any of their content would be if it was just posted as-is without any of the editing magic.
yogscats always cheats
What's the point in doing this if the SECOND anything looks even *somewhat* complicated you go full cheat mode? I know "the Yogscast guarantee" and everything but you all used to AT LEAST try for a bit. You flipped a handful of levers and just decided you're done. Then you all start flipping things and talking at the same time to confuse yourselves even more..
They cheated on one level lol
@@FaceSticks Congratulations! You can count to 1! You also somehow completely fail to see the point being made.
You also need to realise that we don't see everything. You're saying that they should try "for a bit", but they probably tried for a while, before realising that watching 3 men um and ah over redstone for 30mins isn't very appealing to the viewers.
@@dianalon12 You do realize how cuts work, right? Where do you see a cut during that puzzle where so much time would have passed?
@@Eventide215 The editors are great at disguising cuts.
For example: 20:05
Harry POV: "The fact that you can break levers doesn't fill me with confidence in this puzzle" *empty inventory*
Switch to Lewis: "Oh, here we go ..."
Switch to Harry: *Has a lever and a diamond block in inventory*
Audio blending and perspective switches do wonders
Best boys. Missed you lot. No offence to the new crew, but they are a bit annoying 95% of the time.
