Everything about this is super awesome! :D Thanks for having me! :)

[@okayderp]

We love you nettom !

[@LeonSBU]

thank you for making this video possible! :)

[@Nettom_Minecraft]

@@LeonSBU :D I got no idea how to answer this :,D no worries? I am just glad that me making stuff, and you making stuff lead to this wonderful video! :D

[@Nettom_Minecraft]

@@okayderp aw :D thank you. :) that is really sweet of you.

[@judethedude132]

This reminds me of when I used to play mincraft on my X-box and wonder how the youtubers could do things like world edit. I would see people playing skyblock and build it by hand :)

[@Quillbee]

This was such a good video, I really like how you involved Nettom :)

[@LeonSBU]

thank you! it was actually a rather last-minute decision, which delayed the video a bit, but i'm really glad that it turned out the way it did :)

[@doovid_]

That castle is amazing! This was such a good video.

[@LeonSBU]

thank you :)

[@serges357]

This is the next level, wish you more subscribers Leon

[@LeonSBU]

much appreciated!

[@mr.saturday]

You should take a look at the Back To Beta members. They have some good beta builders

[@OakPotatoo]

This concept is incredibly cool and you executed it so well!

[@LeonSBU]

thank you! :)

[@ibpants]

It's a small detail but the tree leaning in the same direction as the flags is a nice touch. This is really impressive for beta. It can be hard to avoid that 2012 stonecraft look.

[@LeonSBU]

thank you! 🧡 it was very hard to not build in a typical Beta style

[@Ravozhon]

Quilbee wqs right when he passed the world to you, your editing is amazing and ur builds (i found your from UHC Gen)

[@LeonSBU]

thank you! i'm very glad he made that decision too :)

[@knightsofthebedrock938]

your skills are absolutely astonishing! I struggle to build anything interesting that needs more than 3 or 4 block pallet.

[@LeonSBU]

thank you so much!!

[@arizonaxperience]

Idea: try building in classic 0.30. A build in the b1.7.3 farlands would also be a cool idea.

[@LeonSBU]

now THIS would be a challenge 😵

[@arizonaxperience]

@@LeonSBU there is also a mod called "single player commands" for beta you should try out

[@LeonSBU]

@@arizonaxperience i actually did use this mod (or some version of it) - when i made this video i had access to a few commands. the only ones that i ended up using were to turn off weather & reset the time back to day

[@okayderp]

Thank you for the upload, Mr. SBU

[@LeonSBU]

anytime mr. derp 🫡

[@dob19]

you are underrated

[@tyrodegarden4768]

this is like how i play the base game great video by the way :)

[@LeonSBU]

ty!

[@Yegor_Mechanic]

It's weird how no one pointed it out, but you CAN place signs on plates in modern Minecraft.

[@LeonSBU]

oh can you? i had no idea, ty!

[@BerialPhantom]

I mean ppl didnt gradient back then it was the craze to just wall clutter and just layer endlessly, look at really old gazamo builds lol, great job btw

[@LeonSBU]

for sure, building trends have changed a lot since then! and ty :)

[@biblicus8204]

NICE GOAT

[@princesszelda2072]

I dare you to do the interior for this build for a sequel

[@LeonSBU]

it might not be a bad idea! we'll see how this video does 👀

[@roganfrazer256]

That's correct, we built like Lego and one of the best blocks were smooth stones and slabs. Glowstone and glass. And pixel wool art. 2011... Maybe 2010. Where do you think dirt shak first base started? 😂 I played with alpha. It was a birthday gidt from my next door neighbour.

[@LeonSBU]

you're right, the game was definitely a lot more LEGO-esque back then...ty for sharing! :)

[@BANon99]

Hell yeah SBU

[@LeonSBU]

hell yeah 😎

[@LAVALERIANA737]

You can do whatever you propose

[@DornishPrincessGaming]

I was from this Era. I'm convinced this is why I'm such a crap player 😅 Well done! Your castle looks amazing!!

[@LeonSBU]

thank you very much!!! it's definitely hard to break out of old building habits 😅

[@AnaagitaSecreatlyACat]

Super awesome Mr. leonSBU i love your videos❤I have one question though🤔how do you take out your time to record the video, then edit it all by yourself? That must be so tiring and if you do get tired please dont overwork yourself cus i genuinely believe your videos are really good and well edited so yeah i was thinking if you overwork yourself❤😊

[@LeonSBU]

thanks! it is a good bit of work, hence why i only get a video out every couple weeks :) but i do record and edit everything myself! and nah, i wouldn't say i'm overworked, i appreciate the concern though.

[@AnaagitaSecreatlyACat]

@@LeonSBU okay❤️ Keep going on Leon!:D

[@LollySwirl9015]

You should try pocket edition, the pros are it's updated, the cons are it hurts :(

[@Aleixus]

17:38 u just game hours of looking for stuff :)

[@rhysamoment]

where did you get the beta modpack from?

[@LeonSBU]

i believe the mod loader i used is called babric (beta fabric :) ). i don't remember the other mods i used unfortunately

[@timmeh08]

now do the interior lol

[@LeonSBU]

hmmmmmm perhaps....perhaps not

[@Azloctifyy]

Cool.

[@titas1139]

Wassup Leon, you know me right ?

[@ptarmigamer8443]

LeonSBU i cant even build that good in 1.20! How do you do it?

[@LeonSBU]

lots of trial and error, and...luck 😅

[@TheUnknownYes-cq4ou]

Could I use this idea of the build?

[@LeonSBU]

sure thing 💯

[@timmeh08]

nice vid

[@LeonSBU]

ty!

[@BANon99]

103 views Not so much tbh for your potential

[@LeonSBU]

hoping the algorithm picks this one up :)

[@LeonSBU]

i used to make more shorts, they're not really my thing though. i'm not interested in taking my existing videos and chopping them up into shorts, and often times these days i don't have ideas or motivation to make unique shorts

[@conjoutoons9722]

​@mrrealgreatpalmtree shorts gives you veiws but not engagement, so you're better sticking to long and high-quality videos

[@LeonSBU]

yea, this is the philosophy i generally stick by these days

[@hesamdz1464]

giga spoiled by modern minecraft

[@LeonSBU]

so true 😔

[@lasercraft32]

Beta Minecraft is highly overrated. There I said it.

[@Mask_Ma]

Keep an eye open tonight

[@LeonSBU]

LOL some might disagree in the comments, i don't think it's bad, but i do think the nostalgia for it is a bit overblown

[@lasercraft32]

@@LeonSBU Yes. I don't know why but the nostalgia is 10x more potent when it comes to Minecraft. Its one powerful drug.

[@bestevil.]

Ikr, yeah it is nice to go back and all, but it's pretty much entirely just nostalgia bias. No beta isn't better than current minecraft (ppl genuinely say this)

[@hyxlo_]

It just being mostly nostalga is easily disproved by the thousands playing beta who weren’t playing in yet in 2011. There are quite few things I like in beta more than modern Minecraft as a 2015 player. Although I do agree that overall the modern version is better.

[@marcadroverpons3624]

This reminded me of when I used to play the console versions of minecraft (ps3 and later nintendo switch), and it was such a tedious process to make a big build even in creative mode. I wondered how people made adventure maps (and I even tried to replicate some, making them block by block until I eventually got tired). Yeah when I was older and could get a computer with java minecraft... It was a revelation.

[@LeonSBU]

hahaha i think i had a similar train of thought, playing adventure maps for the first time many years ago!

[@SwervingSho3]

Is it just me or did you step up your editing for this one. Amazing video, I would have exploded halfway through if this was me. mewo

[@okayderp]

Ikr, I was noticing how nice the editing was.. props to him !

[@LeonSBU]

honestly, i thought i dialed it back a bit, editing-wise 😆👀 i'm glad it's still up to standard though!

[@Trashmantrash]

Going off title alone I'm just gonna say yes.

[@Oogiescat1234]

Sometimes, building on bedrock is hard, but i like it so i do it anyways. That is what i like of minecraft

[@ShadowFoxy74]

Im pretty sure that sign on a pressure plate is possible im modern minecraft

[@LeonSBU]

:0 you are right! i totally expected it to not work...but it does!

[@ApexGale]

i am leaving a comment for the algorithm. you shall excel

[@LeonSBU]

much appreciated :)
