minecraft music but you're no longer a kid...

- As you sit there, staring at your computer screen, memories of Minecraft flood your mind. The first time you ventured into the game's blocky world, the excitement of exploring a limitless terrain and discovering hidden treasures. Building your first shelter, with only the sound of your pickaxe echoing through the empty landscape.
Remember the joy of crafting your first diamond sword, feeling unstoppable as you faced the monsters that roamed the night. The endless hours spent with friends, building grand castles and cities that reached towards the sky.
But as the memories wash over you, there's a twinge of sadness. The moments that you'll never forget, but can never relive. The friends who have moved on, the servers that have shut down, the worlds that have been lost to time.
Yet even in the sadness, there's a beauty. The memories of Minecraft are a reminder of the joys of creation and exploration, of the friendships forged through shared experiences. And though the game may no longer hold the same magic it once did, the memories will forever be a treasure, a reminder of a time when anything was possible in a blocky world.

Minecraft ends when I die. I will always enjoy playing it. Started playing when I was 24 and am 35 now still very much enjoying it. My son is 3yrs old at the moment and I'm hoping someday soon, I'll have a new Minecraft buddy to play the game with. But for now, I still have a best friend that plays too & I also play among many others on a server.
True
Please stop making me cry
you made me happy :)
"Let's finish this tomorrow i have to leave, see ya"
"Ok bro, I'll be waiting"
(Last seen 11 years ago)
Why is that so true I haven’t finished a city I made with a friend of mine that was going to be the groomsmen for my wedding but he was last seen 12 years ago I just hope he’s enjoying building a city up in the sky
it isnt really a realistic scenario
my friend was last online 1553 days ago

I will be 76 in September of this year and I remember my grandson playing Minecraft. I would sit for hours and watch him build whole cities. Now, my grandson has graduated from High School this year is and moving on with his life. But what great times we had together and what great memories I have of the times when we were together.
I cried so hard because of this comment
this comment hit me hard
I would have been overjoyed to have a granddad like you.
this is so wholesome tf
@@Cocoa_098 me too
i used to play minecraft with my dad. he wasn't very good at it and i was often waiting for him to catch up with me, but he always wanted to play with me and he never got tired of it even though he struggled. he passed away from cancer last autumn and, while i still love playing, i don't think i'll ever be able to play it again without thinking of him and how much i miss his gamertag a few blocks away and his huge pack of dogs he'd always tame. i miss you, dad.
Im sorry!😥
Damn that really hits hard 😔
Man I am sorry, this comment really got me. Rest easy to your pops 🕊️
I'm sorry to hear that. It's the same with Halo for me. I sobbed like a child for 30 minutes straight when Infinite came out and I first heard that soundtrack because after 15 years of playing Halo together with my dad, it was the first one he wasn't there to hear or play alongside me in co op. I still love Halo and it's lore but even now almost 4 years later it's difficult sometimes to hear one of the OSTs from those games and not tear up.
Godspeed :) He's in heaven now, again surrounded by a pack of loved ones.
Minecraft music triggers a deep sadness and nostalgia in me.
I'm so grateful that I grew up at exactly the right time, when Minecraft was just coming onto the market.
Unfortunately, that period of my life is over. Minecraft still exists, but the people associated with it are long gone.
It's like revisiting the house you grew up in, the house is still there, but the people who made it a home are no longer there.
It makes me sad because I still love playing it, but with how much worse things are today than when Minecraft came out I don't really get to play anymore, just trying to make ends meet and do the things I need to do, hell sometimes I don't even get that done..

Why do you already ahve children. You are only 27? Where are you from?
Impossible to not cry reading all these nostalgic comments....
It really shows just how big of a game Minecraft was - the first of its kind at that scale really. Its so big its literally had a generational impact on people, playing it is a shared experience for millions and millions of people who were growing up during the dawn of the information age. A narrow wedge of time that has all of human history behind it, and all of the future of humanity ahead of it. The kids born in the last moments of a Millennium and the last kids to know a world without the internet. Godspeed, all.

I played Minecraft after elementary school everyday with a friend I met online, she and I would imagine we were warriors in the builds we made, we "fought off the endless waves of evil", we were a family one moment, the villagers next, then the invaders ourselves. I remember getting a message one night while playing, of her saying that she won't be on for a while but to please continue being a knight, and I assumed that meant she got off because it was late. 2 days later I learned she passed away from cancer, and her parents called me to read the letter she made me. That's where "rubyheart" comes from. I refuse to get rid of that world, I can't, I go back on there to build onto our chaos of a world, go mining, slay a zombie, and add a new flower to her grave I made her. Minecraft gave me more then a friend.
I know how that feels man... well, not quite but almost the same thing. I used to play minecraft with an old friend of mine, we were eight at the time, and he introduced me a online friend of his, that played halo with him. We became friends instantly. We introduced minecraft to him and we played everyday after school, we built a city, lived in a village and had 50-60 dogs and cats, we bred them just for fun. After sometime, my first friend moved out of town, and we started playing together less frequently, until we just stopped for quite a long time, around five to six years. So, without him, i started playing exclusively with my online friend, his name is Brian. We played just like before my friend left the town, everyday after school but suddenly he sent a message to me saying: "hey man, im not feeling that good, im heading to the hospital and wont log in for today, bye!", he went offline for two years. Turns out he had an advanced lung cancer, and was in and out of the hospital for these last twp years, doing chemo and blood transfusions, then he finally logged on, i've never felt so happy in my entire life. He won the battle against the cancer but not the war... four years have passed: we continued playing every single day, we still played minecraft but not as frequent as back in the day, we were happier as ever, until disaster struck. He contracted the flu, that developed a pneumonia and to this day is still battling against it, at the moment we are both 16, he has been treating it for one whole year, because his lungs were already compromised because of the cancer. Its a pretty aggressive disease and his health is just getting worse and worse. We play COD from time to time but very rarely. Im really scared if he is gonna make it or not because when we vc, he coughes a lot and has to stop every 10 to 15 minuted because he coughed blood and needs to rest. Its a pretty sad reality and i think about him everyday hoping that he is feeling well.
It has been tough for me live through this situation but i have faith that he will recover at any time.
(And if someone is doubting that this isnt true, throughout this whole time he has been sick i get messages from his parents every two weeks saying how he has been feeling)
I hope your friend rubyheart rests peacefully in the skies my friend.
Stay strong!

Yeah, it’s so sad, because that time never came back again, i’m very proud for play in old times…. Always in our minds…. Forever!
There's a quote from the TV show: The Office that goes: "I wish there was a way to know you're in the good old days, before you've actually left them." Thats what your comment reminded me of. Great TV show btw if you haven't seen it.
Nothing's stopping you from coming back, I just played with a friend for 2 hours and its felt so amazing

Just reading the comments while listening to this music brings this surreal yet peaceful feel, as if we are all connected... As if I am being taken back in time with everyone in the comment section.... Feels almost as if we all played together and experienced the same things. As if.. We all know each other.
So true buddy, it’s been 20 mins since i opened this video and i almost cry twice 🥹✨
It's an amazing feeling when everyone feels such a bond with others around the world. No war, no politics, just friends all over the earth. It is all because of this one game.

@@_residium_same
Couldn't have said it better myself...
Every time I think about the past when I was a kid, I always felt like crying...
this was me for years. the feeling simmers, and you will look back at your childhood with grace, rather than sadness. nonetheless, heart strings are always tugged.
The adult world seems like hell tbh. Having to fit into the mold and be expected to know everything but when youre a kid people are kinder, more caring of your interest and passions, and you feel mostly happy. You don’t have a lot of memories yet so nostalgia doesn’t exist for you and you’re more focused on the moment. But now we’re big kids. Partners drama fear college all that. Our parents are aging, maybe some of our grand parents or family members are no longer here. Idk about anyone else but I feel like I’m empty..? Idk I feel like I’m hollow inside. Missing days where we weren’t judged basically at all. I don’t want to put up an act forever now. But we don’t have a choice. We don’t..
I agree dude, living this ways its sometimes hard, we gotta be strong... you're not alone in this
You're not alone.
Felt that
I guess that’s the paradox of life… humans constantly reminisce and long to be in the past when things were “better”. When you are a teenager you long to be a kid again when school wasn’t as hard and you had less responsibilities, when you are a young adult you long to be a teenager again because of the freedoms and you didn’t have to look after yourself, when you are in your prime you long to be a young adult because they still had opportunities to be anybody that they want and aren’t stuck in a stable income, and when you are elderly you long to be when you were still healthy and can move without help from other people. Even when you are about to die you miss when you still had life left and when you still had memories that could comfort you.
I’m only 15, so I can’t really make these assumptions, but I think that it is very human to think of the past as a paradise you can never reach. The right thing to do is to just be grateful that you are where you are and you have the privilege to be in the past.
I’m turning sixteen tomorrow and I’m crying rn I dont wanna get any older I don’t feel my age at all.

I'm trying not to cry, I have been playing Minecraft for years, and I haven't in a while. This hurts because I know that I can never go back to my early days of playing Minecraft, it hurts because I know that I'm not the same person anymore. It hurts because I've become someone who is too afraid to take chances, the same way I could before. It hurts, but it's nice. I don't know why I'm drawn to it even though it hurts me. I can't explain it, but the nostalgia hurts, and heals me at the same time. I've evolved so much as a person, and Minecraft was a big part of that. I love this, even though it hurts me, I love it. Sorry for rambling, but I thought I needed to share my thoughts. Have a good day everyone

When I come back to Minecraft, from time to time, I am astonished at how much everything has changed. I still remember the day they added fireworks or trading or cats. How excited we, 12-13-year-old kids, were talking about how we found our first diamonds, how cool our houses looked, and how we were still wondering if Herobrine was real. Hell, I even created this UA-cam account so I could be subscribed to my favorite Minecraft-creators. Minecraft gave us so much - place to retreat and escape, place to be creative, place to even make friends;
I am now 25 years old and this all happened more than 10 years ago for me. I have changed, and the world around me has changed. But when I hear those first notes, I become that little boy again running back from school to play Minecraft, to find his first diamonds...

Nostalgia for the past is actually a torment that you don't want to go away...❤
so True
I don't think you guys need to be so down. You're still alive, and you can still play minecraft. I think what hurts about growing up is that sometimes it feels like as a child, it was easier to have fun, and there was less stress all around. I used to think the same way too. But I've grown up, and though I'm still young, I realize that it isn't the case. I'm very happy when I listen to this music. I think about all the times I watched minecraft videos on youtube, and the times I played with my friends. I laughed so much. But it wasn't all there was ! I was also sad and upset, from my own insecurities, school, bullying, etc. It wasn't all rosey, just an escape.
Today is not so different. You may have different tastes and you may find minecraft not as exciting as it was back then. But there's so many other things you can choose to do instead, that make you happy, that you can also share with your friends.
When time goes by, and you get even older, the stressful and painful moments will also be able to fade in light of the happier ones. You will be able to look back at each time of your life and, no matter how much pain and darkness you had to endure, be able to look at all of the moments that made them bearable.
If you sulk now on how your childhood is over, or your youth is over, you'll get older and get filled with regrets that you spent your life trying to maintain running sand within your hand. Enjoy the current moment ! Find little things that make you happy. Old things disappear so that new ones can take their place. Enjoy what's here and what you have :)
That's a very wise and beautiful comment
As an adult you're more critical and it's harder to get excited from things I've noticed time to time but it's part of life you've been on the planet longer. Some days are good, some bad, some meh but you can't stop looking/finding that special place/hobby etc.
omg it's such a wholesome reply
To me, it's not stress or the struggles of being an adult that make the music emotional, it's the awareness of getting old and passing time. I am no longer the person I was when I played the game for the first time and the world in which it happened doesn't exist anymore. I didn't use to think "this experience will be a distant memory in the future", now it's difficult for me not to look at things in this way, I know that in ten or forty years I will be remembering fondly today.
Don't be sad that your being bullied is got you
This music is the aching realization that you can't ever go back to something you once had and those happy moments will only remain distant memories.
It's nice to look back that's why they're memories. Good and bad ones they are there as reminders to have fun or avoid certain things etc.
you can't go back to constantinople now it's istanbul
IT will always new Constantinople in our hearts@@paulkamenitsky5911
But the beautiful thing about life is making more of those happy memories, when you can of course.
Nah I'm 18 yo and still playing Minecraft since 6, but I'm happy. You can still enjoy what you used to do, and make some good memories for the future, even right now. Maybe you need some rest. God bless you.
This makes me so sad, yet so at peace. My brother who's in high school now, is too cool to play Minecraft with his older brother now, and that's where the sadness kicks in. But yet, I'm at peace knowing I have those memories to cherish forever.

"Don't cry because it's gone, smile because you had it."

@Hush_Otaku is very true. I still can't leave my past the best times of my life. I'm 21, and I feel like 12 years old. It is strange how life goes. I feel lost in this world
but its not gone!
It's not gone I'm 18yo and still playing the masterpiece
I played minecraft during Covid, One my best memories is logging on to my friend's smps after online school. I'll never forget those times
As I read the description, an emptiness filled my heart. There isn't any reliving those old memories you had so long ago. Minecraft with friends, building and mining, it was all so simple at one point. It's too far gone now. It was lonely as a singleplayer world, but not empty. Only the sound of your footsteps echoing the world as you build your first house, craft your first tool, and beat your first enemy. Minecraft was always there for us, like an old friend. And it will never leave us.
There is always beauty in sadness. You just have to find it.
Makes me miss when things were stress free and life was easy.
yeah, you say it
When life was just easy and beautiful
I remember being a kid and playing Minecraft after school.
Now I’m an adult playing Minecraft after college classes😅
We had so many good times on it minecraft is legendary !
and when you leave college and apply for a 9 to 5 job or 7 till 7pm job you realise that you wont have that joy or freedom u use to back when u were that kid and back when you were in college :/ , my love for the game died as i grew older :'C
Funnn
this is the best game ever not as gameplay (which is really fun too), but as the concept of freedom in this lonely world
@comradelemon6928 there's always time you just need to manage it.

Nostalgia for the past is actually a torment that you don't want to go away...
I was already in college by the time Minecraft became a thing, but despite being in my 30s now, some part of me will always be a kid. During my years in college, I had a paid internship at a local library's computer tech. I was put in charge of a youth program wherein the library hosted a _Minecraft_ server. I loved that job. I loved seeing the smiles on their faces. Even when we had the one kid who griefed the server, and was banned, we watched him change as a person as a consequence of his harm, watched him give sincere apologies in person to those he had hurt, and how he became a better person for it and was eventually unbanned.
I miss those days. It was a minimum wage job but you hardly had to pay me at all. It wasn't work at all. It inspired those kids.
Inevitably I had to leave college and the program, but that's not exactly why my time there had ended. A harsh lesson for myself as well. Be weary of when you speak in anger, for you never know who might be listening. I got into an unsavory argument with someone online about some BLM controversy at the time, and they emailed my place of work. To be fair, what I was saying was not nice. It was born of frustration and anger, and the person who spoke out against me was not merely someone trying to take a vengeful stab at my livelihood for disagreeing with them on the internet. There was a genuine concern for how my sour attitude might affect children. Ironically I had actually found and confronted the person who reported me prior to being fired, and they explained things to me in a way I came around to understand. I even apologized, and we seemed squared. They were even willing to vouch for me to the library, though for some insane reason I declined. I thought everything was resolved, but it wasn't about what I believed. It was how I conducted myself that bothered the library's administration. They didn't even know that I had resolved things with the person, but it didn't matter. They cited safety concerns, which may have been part of it, but truly I think it was more about how hateful of a person I was being in the original outburst I had online. The library fired me, but they never told the kids why. I was so ashamed in myself that I didn't even have the heart to say goodbye. It hurt too badly. I left quietly, accepting that I was wrong, thinking that this would just be a deep regret for the rest of my life that would never be fixed.
A few months later however, the library mailed me letters of thanks and goodbyes from all the kids. As far as they knew, the only reason I left was because it was time to move on. Even now I cry about it. It brought such a smile to my face, and some relief to my heart. The library wouldn't have done that if they genuinely thought I was a bad person. I was flawed, perhaps, but we all live and grow. Same as I watched those children grow over the course of three years, I still had some growing of my own to do.
It was a nice experience of yours ❤😊
Thats nice man
That was great to hear man, wishing you the best. this comment section and your shared memory is helping to inspire me.
Many of us grew up on this game, but now that we've grown up, it fills us up with a bittersweet feeling that can make us feel empty.
But feeling empty isn't the end. We feel it now, just because we're more aware of the world than we were in our childhood. We no longer live in the moment, we attend to the future, and that emptiness is the start of that.
The emptiness is temporary, only there because we haven't filled up our lives with the things that matter. But those things will come in time, just be patient and build your future the way we all did.
One block at a time.
A Beautiful speech !
Minecraft.. nobody ever knew what this little block game could do to the whole world when it got released
Nobody knew it would become a safe space when something bad happened
Nobody knew that the game would live on so long in the hearts and minds of children, adults and even older folks
Nobody knew that the little block game, called Minecraft, would surpass every game that existed at the time, past and future
But everybody knew they found the perfect place to relax, forget everything and just enjoy life
When I was about 4 years old, my brother and I would play minecraft togther on his Xbox 360. he was probably about 9 or 10 at the time, and we loved it. We would play for hours and well, now we don't. I'm 14 and he is 20, soon moving out of the house and away from me. He promised be that before he moves out, we will recreate our favorite childhood memories one last time. Play Black Ops 2 together, Play some minecraft together, and play one last game of monopoly. I'm going to miss him a lot when he moves out, but I'm so glad he opened me up to minecraft. Minecraft has brought me and my friends over the summer when we have nothing to do, and even though it has changed a lot thoughout the years, it's still the game. Minecraft will always be Minecraft.
Never take anything for granted, and enjoy the time you have with the ones closest to you, because one day, it won't be the same, and people will age. And some won't make it with you.
bro i was 30 minutes in when i just started bawling my eyes out for no reason. idk if it’s the nostalgia or the comments or just the overall vibes of the music but i have not cried like this in such a long time. it honestly felt so healing - thank you for uploading this
Thank you for this comment man, after scrolling down reading you all I started to get blurry on my eyes and your comment was the was that broke me. But thanks, I haven't cried in a long time to and it felt so... clearing.
A lot of love bro, and stay safe.
@@braca7175 i’m so glad my comment was able to bring those emotions out of you and that i wasn’t alone in feeling like this :”)
thanks for the love, you stay safe too man
i think its the combination of how everyone feels the same and how the music teleports you to a time where it was all much simpler.
Bros did you play a game that is called among us.
I miss the old days so much, i remember coming home from school and laying on my bed watching stampy cat and playing minecraft. Man, how i wish i could go back in time...
I remember the time when I first played Minecraft and I looked around in the forest, started chopping trees, made an axe and a wooden pickaxe, and started exploring the caves, searching for ores and items, upgrading my tools. I came out of the cave, searched for a village, and built my first house. My first night started in the evening, and there were many hostile mobs. After that, I continued the engagement until I finished Minecraft.
"life back then wasnt necessarly easier. it was just simpler." every day, after school, i would hang out with my best friend to play minecraft. it was a wonderful survival world. we created games, built structures, made memories. in the weekends, we would hang out to talk about the world. we made plans of expanding the world, of getting better, of playing more. it was really wonderful. i still play minecraft with the same friend, but it really doesnt really hit as good as it did in the good old days. but, im certain that in a couple of years, i will look back at this world, with tears of joy and nostalgia. im going currently through my teenage years. i used to play on that old world when i was 9. its crazy that so many years have passed. its honestly beautiful how a simple game managed to provoque such an intense felling of nostalgia and melancony.
i love you, minecraft 🥲
One cool thing about this game is that they keep the older versions, sometimes I go back just to play my old maps, I love it.
I would love to do that, but my old maps are forever gone :( The HDD has failed and I dont even have it anymore.

I started playing this game when it was just Minecraft. No updates. No quartz. Just classic, the tutorial and all. I'm going to high school next year. It feels like just yesterday I was the 5-year-old boy laughing and building the most obscure things with my imagination. I'm going to miss all of the memories I made with this game. This game is the sole representation of my childhood.
good luck man, I'm 2 years away from HS, and though I've lived a short life, I can't get over the subtle sense of melancholy every time I look through photos of younger me.
I remember when they added horses! And when it was such basic structures youd run around LOOKING for mineshafts and dungeons
@@skie6282 The real OG was booting up the first test version of minecraft in the browser. Sandbox / creative, flat world, a few colored blocks and bricks, and then being able to fly. I built a rainbow tower and then closed the game. We didnt have any world generation or horses etc. We were stoked about it though. 🤣
Good luck man. May your childhood live in in the houses you build today.
Good luck with HS man. I just moved out after graduating when you left this comment. PLEASE remember to be present in the moment when you're there. Don't worry so much about the little stuff just find people you like and be kind and confident. Hopefully you have a pleasant experience and make lots of good memories.
I remember when I was still a child, my brothers always play minecraft and one day they wanted me to play with them too, it was 2015 I think. It was an unforgettable experience and I remember every single moments we played. When they build me a rollercoaster on a candy mod (I really love the candy mod back then) and when I lost them when it was snowing and then 00:01 starts to play, I love every single moments we had together playing Minecraft. Now theyre in college (one almost finished) while me still in school, ngl im really lonely since were not as close as back then, I wish I can turn back time to when im still a child playing games with them together.
The first time I played Minecraft was in the 4th grade. I never stopped playing, I continued through elementary school, middle school, and even high school. Right now i'm in college, i still think about all the great times I had playing Minecraft. Occasionally, I do load up my old worlds seeing all the awesome things me, my friends, and family built and all the fun we had... the nostalgia is almost unreal at times.
Minecraft is by far the greatest video game of all time.
"We've had our fun- we've laughed, we've smiled, we've raged and cried. we've gained, and we've lost. Update after update, we've seen the years come and go. But it's time to say goodbye."
"It's been 13 long years- You've grown, far beyond what anyone expected from you. You've done some amazing things- and yeah, it was hard sometimes. I was what you came back to. When you wanted to spend some time with friends, when you wanted to escape from a long day, it was me you relied on. Sometimes you modified me in different ways, and sometimes you played me how I am."
"Times have changed- and you're so much more than I could've ever hoped you'd be. I'm proud of you."
"Though you may never play me again, I will always hold your creations dear. From the extravagant mansions, to the mediocre houses, to the humble dirt hut you built when you first played me. All of them are beautiful."
Farewell, old friend."
This hit hard
For so many people this was an escape from reality, a savior from an abusive family the one time in the day where kids, adults anyone got to be free and do whatever they liked, I remember always playing with my cousins and siblings or even just by myself and it’s just such a peaceful place to be and really helped me through a lot as I know it did with so many people. This game will always have a place in my heart
I bought Minecraft with the last of my 11th birthday money back in late 2014. I still remember hopping on for the first time, and discovering Redstone, the first jungle temples, desert temples, villages, farms, and everything yet to come. That 11 year old kid has become a skilled builder, Redstone engineer, and a wiser young adult. The most peaceful nostalgia I have ever experienced.
snap...me too friend
Coming back to this makes me miss my old friends who helped me build an entire underground living area in a crevice. We filled in the lava with dirt and gravel and built an apartment block into the walls, we had a village we built with shops and working production lines to trade with one another and a long rail way from everyone's villages to interconnect them. Took us 3 months to finish. Everyone is alive and well and doing their own things now but I jumped on there last week for the first time since 2016. The Greek Mythology pack was the last thing I experienced in Minecraft. That had me feeling a whole different type of nostalgia. I miss my friends, the stuff my ex and I made together is still there, frozen in time forever. I screwed things up with her and hurt her really badly emotionally and regret it and sometimes I remind myself how awful I was back then by going back to those places and realize how lucky I was. I have a good life now though, learned a lot from that big mistake of an affair I had. I have 3 kids, a wife, house decent job and rebounded from sui***al depression quite well the past couple of years. Minecraft is truly a magical place full of memories good and bad. Never forget the bad ones because you learn from those and become a better person.
Really happy that you have that in your life. I think a lot of people think of nostalgia as a challenge to their current happiness, but it isn't. Nostalgia is a memory of another happy time you had. No good or bad thing lasts forever, but we should remember and cherish the good things. Doing so fills the soul and removes that sense of instantaneousness that can creep into life later on. You have been happy before. You are happy now. And you will be happy in the future too. Don't be too hard on yourself, there's still a long road to travel ahead.
I remember introducing this game to my twin daughters when they were about 5. I was a young dad (my wife and I had them in our late teens) so they grew up gaming with me, and I watched them grow up to move onto online games ie the Souls-like games, Genshin, etc. My daughters are 16 now, and I see how talks of driving, college, world judgements, affects them, by the looks on their faces and through further conversation. I've read some comments left by people who are concerned about the same things. Growing up is inevitable guys, it's sad but true. We have to accept it, and once that settles in, you can enjoy more of the present time of your youth, rather than stressing about the things that are out of your control. You all will be ok, trust me. Just make good decisions and do what you have to do.
Yup, I'm only 13 and I have so much time to grow up, but as time passes I really start to miss when I was younger. For me its studying, midterms and finals. I still have fun but there's just a sense of melancholy when I look through old photos of younger me. As you said, growing up is inevitable.
@@rush_17 you have so long please enjoy it while you can. when you hit 17 you'll realize how much time you had at 13
@rush_17 i didnt start having these thoughts till after highschool, when your parents, teachers and older siblings tell you that it goes by so quick they arent lying. Just yesterday it was the last day of grade 6 now I'm in my 3rd year of college.
I opened the video and got chills. I cannot describe the nostalgia this brings to me.
I miss old minecraft,not becuase of the simplicity of it or the old textures but becuase kf pure nostalgia,go to scool,come home,turn on xbox 360 and play minecraft legacy edition,that was a great time,and im sad ill never see that again,minecraft is truly a magical game
I didn't think music from a silly block game would get me crying... I listened and remembered the many Minecraft worlds with my friends and sister, dating back to the Wii-U worlds, the 2020 craze, where Minecraft was literally my entire being, my entire day and joy. It hasn't even been that long, nor am I even that far from it... the old music just brings back the relaxing sounds and nostalgic memories I had forgotten and missed dearly.
I miss Stampylonghead, DanTDM, Skydoesminecraft, and the others. I wish they would come back but they aren’t.😔
😕 yeah.
@@AmbientCrafts yea this world is hate or be hated now we probably see it when we all die
And Bajan Canadian hunger games
@@LightYagami675S Oh yeah. He was so cool! Remember his hunger games Minecraft song which was a parody of “Decisions” by Borgor? I love that song
Skydoesminecraft turned out to be a complete asshole though
*Waking up in a small cottage, you listen to the music this world plays. It has always been here. It used to torture you, reminding you of the pet you lost, that loved this music. He was your only friend at the time. Now you take care of his children, who also love this music. The music doesn’t bother you as much anymore. It reminds you that you have to move on for him and his family.*
this brings back so many great memories of a happy childhood...it fills my heart with that feeling i felt when i used to play this game everyday..it 's not just a game it became a part of me that will never go away, I hope I'll be able to find peace like the one i felt playing this game...
Thankyou for putting this together, I read over your detailed description and felt a strong reflection of the past while listening to the calming music. The animation is great too!
I think the added sounds of the birds and the ambiance add to the fact that the music doesn't feel the same anymore. It's almost like the music isolated by itself is like how we were as kids in our bedrooms alone playing Minecraft until the sun came up. The sound of the birds is like all the added clutter, unable to have that peace by ourselves when nobody expects anything from us. Nowadays you never catch a break with everybody telling you what to do and how to live your life. You gotta do what you want because after all, it's your life, so why live under somebody else's terms. Just be yourself and live your own life man
i wonder if those sound effects have their own volume bar
Bro you're so wise...
Thanks for the motivation to be myself. 😊
This music always reminds me of my grandpa, I taught him how to play and I used to spend hours every day playing with him, building random stuff.. man the way time flies
this music reminds me of not my grandpa/
This is an old video with amazing music. It really is crazy to get that unexplainable feeling of nostalgia for the memories you've made. Unlike some of you, I am still a kid (only in 7th grade) and I still play Minecraft, but I'm worried of losing that joy some day. Reading these comments, I will make the best of the rest of my childhood, but I don't think there is a need to worry, just live in the moment instead. Now I realize that good memories will last forever and it brings all these people together--Minecraft lasts forever. Thank you so much Notch!
(I think the title really manipulated us into making all these comments, if it wasn't there, less people would be reminded of nostalgia lol)
I try to get into Minecraft, but after all the updates it just doesn't feel the same anymore. I miss the pure simplicity, and the sheer adventure.
You can also play older versions
This took me all the way back... Those care-free days
I’m gonna cry now bro, like I miss them days where you would wake up on a snow day and play Minecraft all day by yourself or with the homies.
I’m 22 years old and I log in till this day every now and then to look at the ancient builds and even update some or build something new. But it’s not the same, I use to play with my younger brother who left the world too soon in 2018…. I will keep building for him, I built shrines and statues in memory of him. Nothing hurts more than losing a brother who you shared your meals with and shared moments building thousands feet high towers and building complex bridges.. It was really metaphorical and foreshadowing that he was always building up.. One day we’ll see each other again in the sky, and we’ll keep building bro. Rest In peace, Hermano mío. I have a daughter now too. I will teach her the game and keep the tradition going… Good luck to everyone out there and never stop building! No matter how old you are. The Minecraft world is timeless, while we’re being timed.
Minecraft evokes very strange feelings in me. I can’t quite discern them, but this makes me want to go and play it. I haven’t played in a few months. Me and my friends started a survival world, one of them lived in a bunker, one of them lived in a treehouse, another lives in a village, while i live in a simple shack upon a desert island. it is good to play gamed like these.
Nostalgia overload
I started Minecraft at 13 years old. I'm 24 now. I still play Minecraft servers with friends and make new houses. Don't let times or age dictate feeling how you want too
"Memories of minecrft are not dead. They just remain in the different biomes of the game."
I feel as if I'm the only one in my friends in real life and online that reminisces the most about the past... Though I have moved past it, I love to keep the memories alive and checking in with them, though they never give me the same energy back :(
I'm similar. I try to take those positive feelings from the past, and use them as inspiration to remind me what is good about the present. The happy moments now will be nostalgic memories tomorrow.
You dont miss the good old days you just miss the way you felt back then, its all gone now so you just want to go back to when things were simpler. When things were better.
I'm still relatively young, 15 years old, will be 16 on July. I knew this game when i was still 5, that's 2013... Ahh... Mobile phones when they're still simple...
I knew this game and since i neither had money nor phone, i always tried to borrow my big bro's phone, played Pirated Minecraft, yep, we have no money, playing that cracked Minecraft is enough to make us lil boys in our place to giggle all day, sharing that pirated minecraft files and play together in my friend's Wi-Fi...
Man.... That was 11 years ago...
All these heartwarming comments are great, but the windows disconnect sound at 41:49 caught me really off guard.
My parents used to tell me they were concerned I wasn't going to have any good memories because I spent all my time playing minecraft. Boy were they wrong. The description really just got me going, I'm crying as I write this. I remember my first Xbox 360 world in that weird beginner castle-ish world u start with, and then my first superflat. I remember survival with kids much older than me that treated me like their kid which I was oblivious to at the time but can only thank those kids a billion times over for making my times special. I also remember purchasing all the weird little Skyrim or Halo world packs and the texture packs too, which I had fun exploring and tinkering with. I always hated the music because it made me feel alone, but now it just reminds me how good it is to be alive. At the end of the day, we're all just sacks of flesh with stupid behaviors we call "personalities", but the only truth to it all is (in my opinion), God, Up, and Down. Enjoy it while it lasts, and never let it go for as long as you live people. Remember during dark times that there's someone out there rooting for you. I'm rooting for you. Yes, you, reading this. You might think I'm just saying this to everyone but I see you (not in a creepy way). I understand you. I was you. It's the middle of the night or early in the morning, your staring at your phone or computer in the dark wondering why things are the way they are. You wonder how it got this way. You long for the good and not the endlessly exhausting cycle of life. And while I can't tell you it changes, because it really doesn't, I can tell you two things; for one, you get better at this life stuff. You really do. You won't notice it until it becomes worth living, but stick through it in the mean time. And 2., The storm will pass and the sun will shine, so long as you wait through time. I probably got super off topic here but it just started to flow, so I'm going with it.
Thanks for this, i need it 🙏🏼
i relate so much to this. thank you for those words.
Minecraft WAS the place I'd go to to escape the dark and sad times in my life I hope the new kids appreciate it like I did 🥲
Minecraft has always been a safe place for me...I'm like, relating to all the stuff from like the adults POV of growing up with it.. I'm only 14 but the childhood thing...damn, well, lemme tell you now, we do... I remember Stampy, DanTDM, Pat and Jen, Captain Sparkles, AlphaLee hell I even watched a bit of Etho when I was younger, I'd also watch things like monster high school unfrotunatly but also alot of just cool Minecraft animations... now we have things like the DSMP while it was active, Hermitcraft, EmpiresSMP, the Lifes series, AfterlifeSMP, OriginsSMP, QSMP, NewLifeSMP... still a safe space...Minecraft will always be a safe space... to help me get away from life and sometimes even my own mind and thoughts...
Edit: Still watch Etho!
And also watching GoodTimesWithScar, I watch alot of Scar.
I'm 14 too glad to see another fan bro ,👍
Minecraft gotta be the game that changed everything to me. Every single afternoon after elementary school coming back at home, I would go quickly to turn on my pc check on my wolf, complete my buildings, look for some items.... I just was extremely happy and I didn't know it
i used to play Minecraft with my friend, we build a city and promised each other that we would finish it, but things got worse and eventually i stopped talking to her. now, everytime i play Minecraft i would be thinking about our world and the promise we made.
The game you leave but will always come back to no matter how many years have passed. It always feels like home. Great game
facts
Honestly, its not the adult life that scares me. Its the idea of doing it alone. So far I've spent all my moments with someone helping me through it, but i know the time will come where i have to go it alone. Thats the truly terrifying part.
I think it isnt scary. You know… you learn many things while your Teenages. Maybe Bad stuff maybe good stuff hapaned still you lesen from both. You will Never be really alone, maybe your Patents Are There or you Girl/Boy. And some day you maybe will be mother or Father with Kids and stuff. And then you will be the one who is helping your Kids with the Knowledge from the teenages.
Its all a Circle Bit you will Never be alone. even if the only Person you speaking to is a UA-cam comment
I feel you hard on this. Sometimes I get that random reminder that my parents are getting older too, and it scares the daylights out of me that someday they'll be gone and I will have to live alone. It's inevitable, and it's terrifying.
The happy and sad memories inside you are fighting each other.
It's too bad that we'll never be able to experience these memories again :(
I was twelve years old, you could say I was a teenager, and I used to play minecraft and it was an unforgettable feeling of carelessness, something that, alas and ah, I can't describe now... because I don't remember much of it, except for fleeting snippets that sometimes pop up in my head. I remember going to different servers, one of the best ones was mysteryworld. and it's true, for me it's one of the best and unforgettable servers where I ever spent my unconscious period of time. i loved to go to servers with free donate, creativity... at night when everyone is sleeping. I liked to just fly around the world, watching how someone just survived and built a house with the help of extracted resources, and someone just entered a command and inserted a house already built by someone else on the plot. sometimes played this heartbreaking and quiet music that made me involuntarily become pleasant, I did not turn it off and did not turn down the sound because it was already not the best and I on the contrary wanted to make louder and just listen. I also loved to play Bedwars, yes, my brother once installed cheats and I played with them, because the server almost had no anti-cheat. now, of course, it is corrected. but on the server I do not play, it is too much he changed for the worse .... I used to love to play Battle of the Builders, where I was either one of the best builders or one of the worst. several times I made it to the top by the number of victories. i used to play at night, because I have Far Eastern time, and when it's nighttime for me, it's evening or early afternoon for others. it was an unforgettable time, but it's a pity that I'm 17 now and I won't be able to enjoy this crazy virtual world built by just one person again....
P.S: Thank you for playing, Markus Persson!
I've been playing minecraft for over 12 years now. I've been watching these Minecraft music nostalgia videos for some years now and they've always hit deep. But now that I'm actually 18, it all just feels so much realer. Hard to believe that by all definitions, my "childhood" is over now.
I'm turning 26 in a few days, and I still play minecraft. Even though my life hasn't exactly flowed in the direction I want it to, I can always find solace building beautiful things or almost meditating in a virtual garden. I play on a decent sized server with lots of like minded people, and we all work together to build things at our own pace. Its nice, even though its not 100% the same.
what is the name of the server?
My brother is 27 and also plays Minecraft still as well! It’s definitely nice to get away and distract yourself into something calm and peaceful for a little while
might be late or early but happy birthday:) life hasn’t treated us well but we are doing our best and that’s all anyone can ask of us. keep it up, you’re doing great!
Being 16 10 years ago is crazy
bro, at almost 27 years i still feel young but when i see this video it shows that we are somehow older. Feels really depressing
I'm literally crying man. Whatever the situation was in my life of that era, minecraft was the escape code from it.
you never know how much you loved being a kid till you remember being truly happy. minercaft will always have a soft spot in my heart and for that im grateful
2013 was the first time I picked this game up. I miss it. But there’s too many sad memories attached to it for me
