  • Minecraft is a game that allows the player to have almost unlimited creativity. But what would happen if there never was a player? Could the random events that occur in the game ever result in anything useful? Tonight, we are going to aim to answer that question.

    Hey everyone! Thanks for checking out the video! Obviously, this is a thought experiment more than anything - there are many reasons that an infinite time world is clearly impossible. It's also pretty cool to hear from people who have more technical programming experience regarding RNG - that is an aspect that I didn't cover whatsoever. Nonetheless, I had a ton of fun thinking of crazy ways for things to happen - do you have any ideas I didn't mention?

      Spawn chunks ruin everything. Sorry. The next step is to figure out how to load anything that isn't a spawn chunk (and fitting inside the default mobcap).
      Also, after a bit of watching, there would be a lot more entropy to deal with, but I guess infinite time could set it up well enough.

    This reminds me of a famous quote from a Brothers Grimm story:
    “In Lower Pomerania is the Diamond Mountain, which is two miles and a half high, two miles and a half wide, and two miles and a half in depth; every hundred years a little bird comes and sharpens its beak on it, and when the whole mountain is worn away by this, then the first second of eternity will be over.”

      @@cavedmanjim249 Ooooof, this hurts to read. Everything started so great, but then you implied that you're _certain_ you know there's an afterlife, despite their being quite literally zero evidence to support that hypothesis.
      The truth is... you *don't* know where you'll be spending eternity (don't know why you capitalized it either), and neither I or anyone else knows either. I do hope you're right because that'd be pretty darn cool, but you probably aren't. In all likelihood, we're all going to spend eternity in the dirt. Eventually, maybe our original matter could be reincorporated into a new organism, and that's kinda neat to think about!
      P.S. this is not what they meant by "spread the good word of god" 😂
      (what you _do_ have is FAITH that you'll go to heaven. My point was that that is not the same as knowing because knowing requires evidence, while faith requires none. That's kinda the whole point... wouldn't be very difficult if you could point at the fossil record and go "no dude, look. Heaven exists, and here's the proof!", ya know? It would defeat the entire point of organized religion.. My second point is just that from a practical standpoint, you should stop doing this. It has the exact _opposite_ effect that you think it does. Seriously, go look into it)

    This video, conceptually, is incredible, and I'm very glad I happened to find it. The idea of infinite Minecraft, or a game playing itself independent from any player is super intriguing; what kind of stories could happen in this kind of world? Would the mobs build their own structures? (What would they make, and why?) Would they explore the entire world together, or destroy it all? Imagine this is a hardcore world, and the player died a very long time ago. Life goes on in their absence, and the creatures put into motion their own world, more impressive than anything any player could ever imagine. Monuments and towers dedicated to nothing tower over the endless horizon, shrouding the sun, and everything that anybody thought was possible. Imagine a new player joins this world, somehow, someday, and they walk through this foreign place, and they realise there, in that moment, that Minecraft really doesn't need them. It just needs time.

    But then you could consider starting a different world, ot even running infinitely many different worlds in in parallel.

One of our key points was that from the standpoint of the Minecraft world, it sees a player in the flesh as a humanoid, average height, blocky figure. But the truth is inside the mind of the player exists in a whole other dimension (the real world), and observes the Minecraft world omnipotently.

    There is one major problem with this. Enderman can't pick up obsidian or end stone, and the dragon, flying around, will destroy anything the poor endermen will build, far quicker than they can place. And I know the whole point of this thought experiment, is that the most unlikely of possibilities will eventually occur, but it's virtually impossible, even under this hyper-long duration, that anything would be built in the end.

    • @seanrrr
      @seanrrr 5 місяців тому

      Agreed. And this whole thing relies on Endermen obtaining TNT from woodland mansions or carved pumpkins from illager outposts, both of which are finite in the world. The vast, vast majority of these uses (random TNT explosions, snow golems getting killed by mobs) will be wasted on random events nowhere near the end portal. I'm very skeptical that the dragon could be killed before every TNT and pumpkin block in the world are gone.

    Something to add on to this: IIRC, as of a recent update (1.20 I think, though I don't remember for sure), *all* RNG in Minecraft (that is, instead of just world generation) is now determined by the world seed. In a normal playthrough where the player actually does stuff, this has very little effect on gameplay because the exact time that something happens at (as far as I'm aware) combined with the world seed is what determines the final result of the number generator. BUT! In a world where no player does anything, everything would happen in the same order every time the world is generated for any given seed. What this means is that there is technically an optimal seed for an inputless speedrun.
    Oh, and considering that finding the seed to generate a particular world is a popular hobby in the Minecraft community (like they did with pack.png), well, if I'm right about this then hypothetically this hypothetical optimal seed could hypothetically be found.
    It's important to note that I didn't research this all that much and I could very much be completely wrong. If someone with more knowledge on this matter would like to confirm or correct any of what I've said, be my guest.

      Could is an important word to use. Maybe a mob cant climb all the way up a one block wide staircase, but if enough blocks are placed to make it more like a pyramid, then it could be possible. The variations in the world and the motions of the mobs (including colliding with each other) also lead to a high level of chaos, such that the pseudo random inputs will lead to nearly random behavior. Even with the rounding of values, I think it would be possible*.

    Thank you for this video. Imagining such possibilities, mathematics mixed with whimsy & a sprinkle of hope... It makes for such enriching daydreaming, really breathes new life into Minecraft itself. Makes me further appreciate when I find unique places, forms, & mob behaviors. Makes the game's world feel truly more alive.
    I myself had an extraordinary event happen to me in survival single-player that I never could have imagined: I had left a few tame wolves sitting on the surface, scattered around the village I was frequenting, & went caving, digging & exploring all over the place. I felt like I'd gone very far from the village, but maybe in all the meandering, I somehow ended up deep beneath it. Anyway, after a couple hours in the caverns, I got into trouble with a crowd of mobs; a creeper blew up, whittling my health down to low, a skeleton was shoving me toward lava with knockback arrows, & 2 or 3 zombies (somehow missed by those arrows) were keeping me from being able to escape & trying to tear me apart first. This was before shields were a thing, & I had so much precious loot on me! If I died, my stuff would most likely end up in the lava.
    I figured I was finished, my heart racing as I frantically swung my sword & tried in vain to recover lost ground, swearing like a sailor, desperate.
    But then suddenly, I heard the crash of lightning right overhead despite being far underground (not sure if they patched how loud it is yet or not; I haven't played MC for many years now), & suddenly there was a burning tamed wolf in front of me! Yelping in pain, he nonetheless attacked one of the zombies harassing me. I gasped & was frozen for a moment in total shock.
    But then a new desperation took hold: One of my pets was somehow here to save me, & I didn't want him to die! But the skeleton had now hit either me or him again (I forget which, it was a cluster-fluff), so he was running between the other zombie I was fighting & the skeleton up on higher ground. I yelled & managed to kill the zombie, then switched to my cooked steak & began spam-feeding my wolf (who was STILL on fire, mind you). He charged in earnest at the skeleton, still flinching from fire damage. Then while biting the skeleton, he also got hit by an arrow. I chased him & kept feeding, feeding, feeding him.
    (In other words, in vanilla survival Minecraft, I was suddenly a healer for a beast tank afflicted with Burning status!)
    Finally, he defeated the skeleton (I was too afraid to attack it myself, for fear of hitting him too), & he stopped burning. I fed him back to full health, & couldn't help but gush mixtures of praise & "HOW THE HECK DID THIS HAPPEN?! _WHAT EVEN_ HAPPENED?!"
    Needless to say, as soon as I had guided him back up to the surface & the village, he was the first to receive the honor of a name from one of my hard-earned nametags. I dyed his collar yellow, & named him Thor. The god of thunder.
    As for what happened, my only guess is that Thor just happened to get struck by lightning, & somehow it pushed him underground, where he was forced down to the next available air-blocks below him. Which just happened to be the cave I was in. And also just happened to be right at the moment I needed him most!
    It really is extraordinary how many circumstances just happened to line up for that unforgettable event. Which made this video really hit home for me extra hard.
    What seems completely improbable could still, indeed, be possible. Even things you never would have guessed could even happen.
    Even in our own lives, don't lose hope if things seem hopeless. So many, many things are possible, no matter how improbable.
    (...Even in your darkest hour, in the deepest caverns of despair, you too may be rescued by something as badass & random as a flaming wolf riding a bolt of lightning! 😄)

For example, he says "a husk on a mountaintop? by rolling the dice enough times, this will eventually happen", but that's not necessarily true. I don't know the game's specifics, but for example, the husk's path-finding code might specifically include (pseudo-)code that says "if block is cold, exclude from options for next step", which would mean it would NEVER make it up that snowy mountain no matter how long it runs. …
    2:44 "Endermen can pick up certain types of blocks" - Right there, you acknowledge there are limits, so Enderman can never pick up certain types of blocks no matter how long the game run.
    The rest of the video was great. It's fun to analyze things to determine if it's technically possible even if statistically unlikely (though over infinite time, all this unlikely stuff would indeed happen, and would happen infinite times - infinity is weird).

    Enough randomly fired arrows could eventually kill an evoker, resulting in the dropping of a totem of undying, meaning zombies and foxes can hold this rare item. not to mention, a close enough cave next to the desert pyramid and a few explosions at just the right place could result in the tnt being near enough to the tnt under the pyramid to make other things a lot easier. Also iron golems spawn naturally in villages that are big enough, and naturally repopulate if there are enough beds and a farmer villager, meaning that an iron golem could technically wander to the end. When the dragon is close enough the golems will try to attack and while they're not successful most of the time they can still produce a small amount of damage here and there.

      the tnt room could also generate in such a way where the structure is clipped by some cave generation in a way where the endermen could take it from below, or from the side if they cant take hanging blocks

    The MPV of this is the Enderman, if the Enderman ever got smart enough and wanted to save their fellow Enderman from the End, they could do it.

    Along with the other given technical exceptions, you'd need to include a mention that mobs would no longer need a player to spawn.
    They only spawn within a certain radius of the player, and they despawn outside a different radius.
    Spawn and despawn mechanics should have at least been mentioned

    Endermen could make an iron farm, All they need is 5 beds to generate close enough to each other, 5 villagers to claim and sleep in those beds, enough leaves around the villagers to limit golem spawning, a platform for the golems to spawn on, and a lava pit to kill the iron golems. They wouldn't be able to put it in a chest, but foxes could get iron in their mouths from a machine that spawns and kills golems.

    3:10 I don't think they could actually built that. Endermen, like the player, have a certain reach where they can place or remove blocks, and that tower is too high. They would have to teleport on top of it, and then they wouldn't be able to place because they're standing in the space they want to put the block. If the pillar was two blocks wide it would be possible, but a one block pillar isn't.

    here's a thought: are there any other impossibly unlikely (but still possible) events that could happen, but would instead impede this sequence of events?
    for example, enough explosions happening that they destroy every single surface snow block in the world, making it impossible to make snow golems?

    The best part of infinity is that not only has this exact set of events happened once, but it has happened an infinite amount of times within that world, as well as every other possible random outcome happening infinite amount of times.

      no because minecraft worlds are not infinite, so if the enderman are dumb and decide to use every single TNT blocks, the possibilities won't be endless
