Etho Plays Minecraft - Episode 590: Big Green & Farm
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 лют 2025
- Progress has been made on the 12 Trial Chamber farm, and today we ride the full thing to check out how it works. We look into the possibilities for making a semi-automatic killing chamber for it.
We head to the Villager Trading system to listen to the new audio cues that indicate the different trade times. Then we do a quick exploration trip to check out and collect the new 1.24.4 content.

The prophecy was true, Etho is first place in fishing and he finally posts a video
I didn't get it
@@cloudyspeed The MCCI server released a fishing game and Etho made it to #1 on the leaderboard recently.
He has finally returned
Unfortunately he has been #2 for a little while again
Also right along a Primitive Technology. Oddly in synch
"I think I overdid it a bit"
...
10 minutes later: still riding
Classic etho.
Slicedlime watching a new Etho Lets play has got to think every time "alrighty let's see how Etho is breaking my game This week" lol
@@GhostKind101No, that'd be Doc😅
Only Etho would casually become the world’s #1 MCCI fisher between uploads
I mean, he took a month and a half "between uploads" to be fair
@@peteman-ur9gi when QueenChazzy was #1 and Scar, Cub, Jev, and... i think of missing a hermit - possibly Etho - all hopped over to MCCI to fish for a bit on stream? QueenChazzy was in scar's chat i think - when asked how much they had been playing to hit #1 - they responded with something like 16 hours a day since release. By that metric Etho put in a *hell* of a grind to get to #1... Makes the time between uploads make a heck of a lot more sense.
Etho would get Grand Marshall/High Warlord in WoW. Dont @ me
A lot can be accomplished in 10 years
Like some sort of RPG side quest
1:20 Petition to call a pack of breezes a "Gust" of breezes
I would say a Storm of Breezes or a Whirlwind of Breezes cos thats what a lot of wind is
@@WonkyWater-YT A whirlwind is a group of groups of breezes
Etho casually creates the plot of The Hunger Games while riding the minecart
@@cakework9584 12 districts too lmao
After all, he was the one who introduced me to The Hunger Games, after recommending it in an episode a long time ago 😅
huh?
@@jonasnimr I read the prequel book about President Snow recently, it’s actually pretty good! He’s always self-justifying for his actions and he’s super manipulative, definitely recommend if you haven’t read it yet.
@@whitebeans7292 Yeah, it's pretty good. Did you watch the movie adaptation as well?
I know this isn't probably something you'd be up for but honestly a "just chatting" type of video where you just talk through stuff (commonly-asked questions, thoughts on future LP projects, Hermitcraft, general UA-cam things) while zipping through the trial chambers would be, at least to me, so fun. Getting to hear your thought process in general is always something I personally enjoy, and the visuals of you on your lil roller coaster-esque ride through these chambers is so so relaxing~
Great to have you back Etho! Congratulations on absolutely killing it in MCCI Fishing! 🎣
That would be super cool
This is the kind of thing a second channel would be perfect for
we are a cult like fanbase afterall
@@sethhubbard698We might see a second skin before a second channel. 🤔
I'd love if Etho did something like this again. I don't think he would stream anymore but I'd love the random grindy just chatting kinda streams, even if it's just once in a blue lol
As a decade+ viewer you might be surprised to hear, but the variety hour episodes where a dozen smaller tasks get handled are honestly some of my favorites and the ones I'm most likely to rewatch when looking for inspiration. Much like you, I prefer having 168 ongoing projects and bouncing between them like tabs on a browser.
We speak not of the fishing incident. NO fishing has taken place today.
Agreed, that's where the heart of the series is. Hundreds of UA-camrs these days do these massive builds in one episode, which are cool, but they feel out of place in an empty world. The small details that connect everything together are what bring a world to life.
every once in a while I see someone mentioning they've been watching etho for over a decade and I get really surprised as if I myself haven't been watching etho for over a decade too
same!
Etho you know we’d watch you fish for 45 minutes and just talk to us lol. Anything for more videos than once every other month haha.
It would be great!
100% agree. I've watched him since he started and don't ever get bored. Bring the fishing episode!
Episode 600 idea!? 😁
The man has returned from his fishing trip
Hey Etho! I’m an MCCI fishing regular and I’ve had such a blast watching you climb the ranks over the past few weeks. Thanks for all the laughs and helpful pointers you’ve given us in chat. You’ve been such a positive force in the community. Looking forward to getting cozy and watching this episode tonight! :)
omg hi i recognize u!!! it's so funny seeing usernames in the comments i know from fishing teehee
Wren!!! My dynaball buddy!! I second this!
Fishtance 8 squad 😎
@@cinderlu I recognize your name from fishing as well!
ETHO'S BACK BABY!!! GO GET YOUR SNACKS!!!
yea until the next video... a month away
I got my Dino chicken nuggets!
I got some sour skittles
@@relaxingvibes1981I just think that break between episodes is good, so that he doesn't get burn out and the quality of them is just as good if not better than last episodes
Etho: “This is a PURE VANILLA SERIES.”
Me: Episode 404 would like to have a word with you.
What do you mean? There's no such episode lol
@ ;)
That was just a bad dream. He had too much redstone dust.
Where is this one located? I can’t seem to find it…
What number is that? I've only heard of 403 and 405
Etho 2016 "I love starting new projects, bad at finishing old ones"
Etho 2022 "i love starting new projects, but we should fix the old builds not working"
Etho 2025 "we did alot of big projects, but it's time to grind and fix the old builds
Never change Etho ❤️
Etho, I would like to have to know that I have used “There’s no sense crying over every mistake, we just keep trying until we run out of cake” as my senior quote. Thank you for the wisdom that will be cemented beside my senior picture forever 🫡
This is from Portal, did Etho say it at some point? I didn't know he ever played Portal, but I guess it makes sense
@ oh I’m an idiot… he said it back in Season 7, can’t change the credit now ha
Hey, even if it is from Portal - it is a *good quote*
@ absolutely
@@its_aeyo well... even if you misquoted it, there's no sense crying over every mistake, we just keep trying until we run out of cake.
After becoming the king of fishing he returns!
Hey Etho, just wanted to comment and say its crazy that I watched my first video of yours over 11 years ago. Your videos have helped me out way more than you can imagine and I just wanted to say thank you and I hope you're still having lots of fun making videos
Congrats on first place! It was fun seeing updates on Reddit how you were doing on the leaderboard.
Honestly looked forward to it every time I opened Reddit 😂 glad to see him back though!
Can you please give the link to this leaderboard? 🙏🏻
@@togashima30links shouldn't work here
@@togashima30 It's MCC Island fishing minigame. All screenshots were on r/ethoslab.
Unfurtunately links dont work on youtube.
It honestly reminds me of Etho way back in the day when he was super competitive. Nice to see the old sensei start to train again. Would love to see him attain his old glory at PVP too.
*NOTE:* The following is from a mod-developer point-of-view; I have no idea what goes on in Mojang's offices. I just know what I've seen of their code.
23:00 - To be fair to Mojang, the Server (where the Sculk lives) doesn't know about a good chunk of sounds that happen. Even when playing in a Singleplayer world, the Logical Server doesn't know when most _sounds_ get played; so therefore, neither does the Sculk. Instead, Sculk works off an Event-based system. That's the list of signal strengths Etho mentions.
This is done for performance and simplicity; for example - footsteps. Sending _every_ footstep sound event over the network _every_ time a mob moves to _every_ player in range would take up a ton of bandwidth _and_ would require that the server check who is in range to try and minimize the bandwidth cost (which can be a fairly taxing calculation.)
Instead, the client handles sounds, for the most part. When it gets an update from the server saying "this mob within your entity distance moved enough for me to tell you about it" the client goes "ok cool" and rolls a random chance to play a footstep sound, so long as the mob is within range. (And like a billion other things but they're not relevant.)
This has drawbacks, obviously, but is the best of both worlds - you get footstep sounds when mobs move, and the server doesn't have to manage it. The drawbacks in comparison are well worth it, from a developer's point of view:
1. Sounds that ARE synchronized that have random variants (a very small and avoidable group) aren't guaranteed to be the same between players (oh no.. anyways)
2. Things that live purely on the Server have no way of knowing what or when sounds are played. (The problem we've encountered)
Heck, things that live on the Client can also have a hard time knowing exactly what sound is _currently_ playing at any given time, due to how sounds themselves are triggered and then just left to their own devices. Though, that's more of a "how computers tend to handle sound" issue than an implementation issue.
Good insight, that makes sense.
Anyone else noticed when it comes to inventory management etho is the best minecrafter at this skill. His innovation in storage/inventory tools made him pretty efficient.
Still manages to never know where anything is 😂
I've copied his hotbar a long time ago and I use it to this day.
Only Etho would spend all that extra Obsidian to make ALL those portals have corners like that. Absolutely insane. I love it. ❤
so true!!!
I do that too...
Nothing like an etho video even after watching for a decade or more. Still my favorite! Love it
Wow! Has it really been a decade since the last episode?
I can't believe it's been a whole decade!
monthly update cycle is done, we moving to decade cycle
@@nixfriarr lol
I agree, it FEELS like a decade! I wish he used the community tab for keep his subscribers informed as I don’t read Reddit or Twitter.
The trial chamber railway is insane. Decorating would be soo cool
Right? He could do a chamber that got infested by skulk and wiped out
It would be done I. 2026
The world might be turning crazy, but as long as Etho is still posting videos, everything is still all right.
I felt this to my toes!
This is my first Etho video in about 4 or 5 years and man he’s so different now. He’s trying too hard to be like those quirky Minecraft UA-camrs. It’s kinda sad tbh. I used to really appreciate him acting like a normal human and not a spaz.
@@TheSCPStudiowhat are you on about? He’s evolving, sure, but acting like a spaz?? You’re way off..
@@TheSCPStudio yeah righto bud. As if. Etho is just being himself. You definitely haven't seen those quirky minecraft youtubers in a while if you think etho's vids are anything like them. Cmon man ragebait is suppose to be believable.
@@TheSCPStudio wow, how can you drop a comment like this, after not watching Etho for "4 or 5 years"??? Truly ignorant, because he has not slipped from being a normal human, and he is far from a spaz. Watch more episodes, understand how his life has been and what his enjoyments are - before dropping something so ignorant. Also, people do change in half a decade, if you gave him a chance - you would notice that he is still very much how he was 5 years ago.
Oh my! A classic Etho intro. How do you manage to be both nostalgic AND innovative in your video ideas?
Love how Minecraft always ends up in being the endless grind, and we're all here for it!
ive been watching the lp chronologically and im still 50 eps away so i cant watch this yet but just know im glad ur back and proud of your fishing achievements
That breezy rail trip was epic, this farm has so much character, adored every second of it.
Yay, a new Etho episode!
I was in middle school when that library was built, now I’m about to graduate college. Holy hell, you’ve been a constant in my life man, thank you.
for the idea at 8:50, i think the idea is fantastic, it would especially be even better if you can craft related farms that activate as you drive by so you can get multiple different resources out of one farm. It becomes decorative and functional.
Etho, I don't have time to watch your video tonight, but I am absolutely over the moon to see another let's play episode. I just wanted to leave a comment early to hopefully catch your attention and tell you, you mean a lot to me man. I've been watching you for what feels like most of my life and you always cheer me up. Thank you for doing what you do brother, you have no idea how much you've helped me ❤
using the Library to streamline your time on other playthrus is such a Genius Etho move, and just thematically makes the Library so much more interesting
it's also a very Bdubs method of "maximizing your enjoyment in-game" because sure you could do the same thing with notepad but that's boring!
the multiverse library xD
@melsunday1991 i LOVE the idea of that haha
@melsunday1991 Minecraft Let's Play: Into the Ethoverse
Reminds me of the library in discworld where every single library is connected (and its a really dangerous place because you can get lost very easily)
Love the idea of adding villagers and lore to the chambers! Adds in life and makes it more immersive!
Me too, I’d love to see a ‘silo’ themed decoration, with different chambers serving different purposes and some having different fall outs
I would try making each of the chambers self-sufficient for the villagers. It's better to be safe than sorry when the aquarium goes down or something.
I don't know why but it makes me so happy that Etho watched Silo. I love the show and the books!
Etho, I think I speak for most of us when I say that if you ever start feeling bored of Minecraft or find it harder to post due to burnout, you can always create videos of other games or even a podcast, and we’d love it. Most of us are here for you-the gameplay is just a bonus. The main content we enjoy is you, not just the game.
Thanks for the years of creation man! It's wild how much work goes into this world off camera. When I play my own world on survival, you'll slowly realize how insane some of these projects are. I like the idea of doing some smaller stuff, especially now that these big projects are all functional!
I kinda assumed he was fishing but i am glad to have him back. Old men love their fishing trips!
Ive been watching ethos sky factory 2.5 and am almost finished so im glad for fresh content. I do miss team canada though
minecio!
You know what else old men love?
Omg I have also been watching the sky factory series. Seeing team canada back together again would be amazing
Guys dad's back with the milk- I mean fish
Love the trial chambers silos decoration idea. But it sounds like it would be a humungous amount of work and would become an ever-lasting project. XD
Just another on the list
THE GOAT IS BACK
THIS IS NOT A DRILL
FETCH YOUR SNACKS IMMEDIATELY
This is an Etho video, not a Doc video.
Everyone knows Etho is washed up, just ask Gem ^^
About the decorating absolutely yes on the fallout idea, I'm a big fan on your Minecraft Vanilla series I've just haven't been active on UA-cam and Unsubscribed to a lot of people and I'm glad i cam back in the right moment, please do the fallout idea for decor it made me smile, keep up the good videos. ❤🔥 Keep rocking on. 🤘
For the skele farming portions of the trial chambers farm, to ensure the dog's never die... armor + occasional Healing Potion dispensing ontop them.
Remember tamed dogs in a minecart can still attack 1 block around themselves AND won't teleport away so untamed wolves aren't necessary.
A cool idea for that amplified pale garden is to make a small abandoned town. The factory would be the cause of it and on one of the hills could be the factory owner's mansion. You could plant creakings around the place to simulate the horrible effects it had on the citizens.
Etho disappearing for a while and becoming top fisher is such an etho thing to do. I love it, glad you've returned from your fishing trip!
I think you’re crazy for wanting to decorate the farm, but the fallout vault idea is SO. GOOD. would go perfect and be so cool to see each different one as you go through
I love the f-zero music in the trading hall 😄
Just when I was thinking there wasn’t anything left for Etho to do something amazing in Minecraft he does this. The GOAT!
The way I binge-watched the entirety of Project Ozone between episodes XD welcome back, Etho!
Trying to grow trees at height limit! Oh dear! Glad to see you back Etho! Congrats on first place in fishing!
Hi Etho! I have been watching your old UHC videos (they are amazing! especially the teams lol) and it's crazy how different they are from the stuff you make now. I've only been watching you for about a year now so it's crazy to go back twelve whole years and see a younger you. I love seeing how much more confidence and energy you put into your current videos. keep being awesome!
Oh man, the Mindcrack UHC? Wow that’s a blast from the past. That was my favorite thing to watch back in the day
@@kman6004 yeah they're awesome. Glad I discovered them
Its now been 12 years since I started watching you. Time Flies
Fishing hut holds a special place in my heart because you building it was my first Etho video I watched
Edit: Just checked, episode 294 in 2013!
We love to see an Etho episode
Hi etho im been watching since 2012 and im getting married in 78 days how far the Minecraft community has come is insane!
I’ve been watching you for literally 11 years man. Thank etho. You get more love than anyone on UA-cam!
Happy to have you back Etho!
That pale biome looks gigantic!! It's the largest one I've seen for sure...!
It's so cool to see a world renowned fisherman like yourself get into making UA-cam videos
thats gotta be the most chaotic start to an episode I've ever seen
This was the most nostalgic intro so far. I had to check for a second if I really had opened the latest video, and not the episode where the fishing song originated from! And the 3 correct ways to pronounce lava were delivered perfectly! This already made my day 😊
This reminds me of all the old school roller coasters people used to make way back in the day but I think this tops just about all of them!
I kept checking my notifications this morning with an Etho sense, but gave up after a while since it was getting late. I’m sure everyone knows the gigantic smile on my face seeing a new Etho thumbnail pop up on my screen!
Etho your video couldn't have come at a better time for me! I've had a pretty terrible day... Got into an accident on my way to work and my car is pretty smashed up. Feeling sore, but thankfully uninjured. This video just made my day 10X better!
Over years of watching Minecraft videos my brain has been trained to expect a cut in the video whenever you go through a portal so it seriously fucked with my head as you jumped from rail to rail and portal to portal near instantly. 😂
was about to go to bed, but then you returned from the deep depths of mcci fishing, which is a much anticipated event that i had to witness in real time lol (congrats on the first place!). it's been great to get a video from you again! as always, they are a joy and a comfort. also, i really like the decorating idea you had for your trial chamber farm! seems like a massive project, but i think it would be a cool way of making this absolutely massive farm feel alive and fully intergraded into your world. could be a very cool thing to work on when you're in a building mood!
he's awoken!! jesus the amount of work that must've taken
Thank you Etho, for blessing us with yet another video.
It makes comforting hearing etho soeak on the fallout lore, such a beautiful lore. One of the best
I will say I think to a degree it is a game design flaw if people choose going AFK over actually playing the game. That means the fun of achieving it through game play is not fun enough to warrant the time spent. People would rather play as little of the boring parts as possible, in order to play as much of the fun parts as possible. And it may be possible to make those boring parts fun, but if that is difficult for players to do, then that too is a game design flaw. I think there should be fun and engaging alternatives to farming materials designed by the developers, rather than leaving it to the players to find out. For example, mob loot; Killing mobs out in the world will never give enough loot at a decent enough pace to not make the player get sick of it before they have enough for whatever they need it for. And as such, people turn to building mob farms. And while mob farms doesn't require you to go AFK, it isn't exactly fun standing at one either, so I think there should be a buff to looting, or dungeons should get a rework essentially function as a mob slaughter arena, where the player fights the mobs rather than watching them die in a trap. Let this be a fun alternative that yields a decent haul of mob loot.
I've actually built a mob arena myself in vanilla survival, using spawners. The main problem was there was no way to move the spawners, so I was lucky to find about 4 or 5 that were relatively close to each other. But even then, it was quite the lame arena. If it were possible to silk touch spawners, and maybe set the distance they turn on, then I would totally build a mob arena, and use that as my main way of getting mob loot. But I still think Mojang themselves should do this. And I suppose they did with the trial chambers, but those don't have nearly enough mob variety. I suppose they could do more trial chambers themed around different mobs. Like a nether one for blazes, wither skeletons, magma cubes, etc.
Yeah that is a valid point. Farming things in Minecraft is such a key part of the game at this point that I feel a lot new features are designed with it in mind. For example, I can't even imagine how painfully tedious it would be to farm a shulker box of resin blocks without making a farm for it. The reward for manually doing things the natural way is low compared to farms.
This is a pretty spot on analysis
Glad you covered some of the update. You are the only MC UA-camr I watch these days.
I know he’s always happy but he sounds much more happy since taking first place in fishing
i'm sure i'm not alone as someone who only keeps up with minecraft through your channel, so going over the new update stuff is always appreciated!
Etho I agree with you on the AFKing at a farm with one exception: when you build the farm so huge that you only need to AFK for like 10 minutes
The fact I have been watching this series for so long and the content has been so consistent and amazing. Truly thank you etho, so much
i've seen you doing crazy things, but the amount of time these trial chambers tunnels is absolutely insane
After 590 episodes I don’t know how you can continue to blow my mind. This is incredible!
Not gonna lie but I am homeless right now. Watching this brings me a sense of comfort in my trying times
Been there, man. The best part about being at the bottom is you can only go up. (:
@verde7595 yessir up we go brother!
Good luck, I hope things turn more fortunate soon!
please never change the intro, been watching since the first videos and I love being taken back everytime a new video starts
Wow. Almost episode 600 is crazy to think. Thanks for all the time and effort you've spent entertaining us!
Honestly, when I heard you talking about Bundles I thought of inventory issues, how they could fix it and that took me back to Minecraft Dungeons. They are so useless - aside from Spawners, but let's be honest you use them maybe once early and then you have a monster farm - and it's mindblowing they didn't get an overhaul with the caves update. They don't even need to go far with it, just add some unique items that you actually want to look for - and hey, there is a game that already shows what can be done: Terraria. Magic Mirror to teleport back to spawn/bed? I always install a mod just to set a single home I teleport back to. And these could include unique items you can equip that give you an effect, e.g. secondary armor slots (helmet, chest, legs, boots) where you can put in one effect. One could be more movement speed or ramping movement speed, Elytra get moved to it as well for the chest. The helmet could have interesting effects like night vision, ore tracking (nothing special, just like a 3-5 block distance that reveals Ores for you, toggled via hotkey). Legs idk, point is less to come up with ideas and more to say that these items could be in the Dungeons and you can have multiple per slot, but only 1 can be equipped. It's honestly a bit sad to think of just how old something that could be so exciting is and that they barely received an update ever.
Dex ! What are you doing here ! It's so awesome to spot you here, I have been watching your stuff like crazy for the last year ! I hope the break has been nice and I totally get watching etho during it :p
@@Zaderos Haha Etho is probably my most watched UA-camr where I also watch playlists on repeat to go to sleep to :p
@@DexTag That feels weird, etho is to Dex what Dex is to me Haha I watch you to sleep all the time
Not trying to backseat but it's really funny that Etho created a whole system for keeping track of Skulk sensor data that could be solved with a couple of post-its on his desk lmao
Skulk sensors detect the page the book is flipped too
Page 7 will set the sensor to detect things that give off signal strength of 7 (entity DMG)
Yeah, it’s not just remembering, it’s that even if you remember you still have to flip a book to page 7 to get a 7 strength signal anyways. So you may as well use a book that tells you.
Etho I’ve watched every single one of your videos for the past 5 years.and I won’t lie I completely forgot you existed until this video popped up in my feed and I’ve never been happier. It’s only been a month idk why I forgot.
Important info about wolves for you etho: I did some digging in the Minecraft bug tracker and can confirm wolves will only attack skeletons when the skeleton can see (and therefore will shoot at) the wolf. This was reported as a bug in issue MC-148047 but is unresolved for ages so probably it's intended behaviour. The bug even shows a similar setup of wolves in mine carts not attacking a skeleton who's line of sight is blocked. I think you're going to have to come up with some engineered solution unfortunately.
The new Etho lore in this episode is appreciated.
"Gone fishing." ❌️
"Never left." ✅️
It’s been a blast watching you on that leaderboard this last month! You and Scar managed to reel me in to fishing and now I’m hooked 🎣. So cool to see this whole trial chamber/nether set up 🤩.
You have no idea how much I needed this Etho. I just walked out on my boss.
i'm happy getting an update from etho every couple of months or so, when you eventually retire, I would love a yearly upload, just to hear from you
Oh wow, I came up with the exact same utility bundle but with two fewer items lol. Great addition to the game.
Yesss bundle fans rise up. I do a similar thing too. :)
Journey before Destination, Etho!
I had a feeling in my bones Etho would upload soon!!!
I like the idea of the Minecraft idea of the day. I like your input about how Minecraft could be different
I cant wait for episode 600 in 2035! only a decade to go before such a monumental episode!
The trial chambers roller coaster!
Thank you @etho for never ending the let's play series I love it been watching since I was 13 best time spent 😂 pls keep what you're doing keep the good work up
remember when a project was practically just turning on and off water flow from a certain chocolate colored mob farm. simpler times. oh how things have changed.
I was at work when I got the notification but THANK YOU ETHO. I just showed my little brother your 550 world tour and now something for me :)
An Etho, Michael Reeves, and Primitive Technology upload all on the same day? More likely than you can believe.
An awesome day for sure!
Always love how you work to follow function with form.
Lowkey banger at beginning
Dude that’s a sick pale garden. Like that one is one of the coolest I’ve seen
35:54 Journey before destination
