Minecraft is a 3D sandbox game that has no required goals to accomplish, allowing players a large amount of freedom in choosing how to play the game. However, there is an achievement system, known as "advancements" in the Java Edition of the game, and "trophies" on the PlayStation ports. Gameplay is in the first-person perspective by default, but players have the option for third-person perspective. The game world is composed of rough 3D objects-mainly cubes and fluids, and commonly called "blocks"-representing various materials, such as dirt, stone, ores, tree trunks, water, and lava. The core gameplay revolves around picking up and placing these objects. These blocks are arranged in a 3D grid, while players can move freely around the world. Players can "mine" blocks and then place them elsewhere, enabling them to build things. Many commentators have described the game's physics system as unrealistic. The game also contains a material known as redstone, which can be used to make primitive mechanical devices, electrical circuits, and logic gates, allowing for the construction of many complex systems.

#Minecraft #Architects #ExpertsReact

[@DreadKyller]

If I have one critique about this channel, it's that the experts aren't informed about many things about the games. They talk about how the lighting in the game has improved since they last saw it, clearly indicating that Gamology didn't mention at all the fact these videos are recorded with mods that enable cinematic camera paths and complex shading. They're left with the impression that it's just how the game looks or works out of the box.

[@magnitudefallout3944]

the point behind it is that in this scenario, the video gets interesting because of those misunderstandings. imagine recording people reacting to what they have been informed about - "oh ok", "yeah i see"

[@amyciao1707]

They are like: HEY react to these clips and your job is done :D

[@MeowMeowMoFu]

I agree. This is an issue with almost every reaction. They are still good but it really makes me want to unsubscribe.

[@TheRealPots]

meh but im hear to listen about their opinion on architecture I dont really care if they know anything about the game at all tbh..

[@DreadKyller]

@@TheRealPots While I agree that's the primary point, their view of what they think the game is does influence their opinions and statements. A good portion of the video revolved around them talking about how Minecraft has become much more cinematic. regardless of the main purpose of the video, these types of videos will influence people's opinions. There will be some people wo are introduced to these games via this channel (though admittedly for Minecraft that'll probably be very few because it's hard to find someone who hasn't at least heard of it before) And while they're trying to be fairly unbiased towards the game itself, it's clear the experts are judging the game and the builds showcased using it on it's graphics. So I feel it's important that the experts know what is default and what is in addition. This video in particular wasn't that bad, but other videos in the past led them to making completely incorrect statements about the games themselves because they weren't informed of third party mods or the like. I don't think it's a big deal, I just feel that mentioning "the lighting is enhanced for these videos" would temper the reactions to less relevant parts of the game.

[@spyrootur2013]

you guys should let them play the game, try building the house, and then show them these masterpieces! maybe they'll be even more amazed lol

It is a little frustrating that they don’t fully understand how Minecraft works, however that lack of knowledge does give a little more headway for a realistic explanation, where as it would be much more slow and the explanations could likely become simple as they could just compare the physics engine and textures of Minecraft to real life and leave it at that

The problem I have is that they are distracted by the things that make a game a game. They worry about things like physics or things being "Magical". I want to hear about how you could make it possible with alterations or how it's similar to real buildings or how it could be improved even. There are also much better games for building that look much more detailed like Valheim, Eco, Ark, and etc. They get so distracted by how minecraft looks blocky and details that are game specific.

[@artsysabs]

Mmm I like the Ark idea

[@FantasticBlueGirl]

Well, one could argue Minecraft has an even greater capacity for creativity and making choices as anything and everything can be harvested/demolished in the world to make room for creations, and instead of using those resources to make specific components for the whole build, one builds whatever they want cube by cube, meaning there’s no chance for terrain to screw with their design and only the sky and their dedication are the limit. Edit: also, I assume most of these are creative mode, not survival, but building large structures in survival has the added component of being able to source so many different resources from the world to use however you want. Also, I feel like these people were fundamentally uninformed on Minecraft considering the literal core of the game is that everything is either cubes or fits inside the limit of one or more cubes, without any rounded surfaces. Even the water is geometric, moving cube by cube (it always reminds me of slo-mo shots in movies that weren’t shot at high frame rates, so everything turns jerky and drops frames).

[@redblade5556]

I worry about the physics when I build. I also worry about the arcane implications when I build. It's when those two fuse together that making a fantasy castle really good. It needed a wider or at least more of a tip, the chunks the keep(?) is floating on.

[@thetravelerofworlds8359]

You really need to let them log onto a basic world, walk around a bit, make a tool or two, break a few trees and stones, and just generally let them get the idea of how some of the game world is set up. How gravity functions (and how it doesn't), and the basic idea of how water and lava function in game. That way they'd go into these videos with a much clearer idea of what's possible and why, and while I still imagine they'd note which things wouldn't be possible in reality, it would be focused more on the buildings themselves and the setup of them. The actual architecture rather than the fact that the island is floating and not them questioning how gravity, water, and clouds work in this game. I was interested in his very excellent point that, for some builds, increasing the scale of it would allow for better detailing. This is indeed a tactic many use. However he made a later comment about not knowing whether blocks are the main part of the game or not, which only showcases the fact that he doesn't really know how this game functions, nor any of the conventions that minecraft builders have developed over time to compensate for the fact that everything is made out of blocks.

[@diegohiramguidogarcia6003]

i mean i know why they say oh cool, its because they have never touched tyhe game, if they did they would notice that this structures are not only amazing from an architects standpoint but they are also super creative and very time consuming i normally spend 7 ingame days making a normal house now imagine how much time this guys put only in a piece of the build that is absolutely insane

[@tomdekler9280]

As someone who played the game lots in survival these builds kinda make me cringe. They're amazing in a flyby with a good set of shaders, but from up-close the houses don't really hold up as something you'd ever want to aspire to building, and the detailing is often patchy use of weird blocks. I get it though; "diagonal" houses just don't work well with Minecraft, but a bird's eye view of buildings that all adhere slavishly to the same compass direction makes for a boring city.

The first build you looked at was a skyblock survival play though where spawn with limited resources unlike in creative mode where they have access to infinite blocks and can fly freely On the note of the lighting effects and non-blocky clouds and water is due to shader packs There are also resource packs that change textures on blocks, creatures, and items

Love the idea of ​​architects reacting, and they clearly are amazing in their fields, but it will be ideal to inform them about the basics of the game.

I am an architecture student working on my master's degree. There is an echo of the familiar architectural ego that I experience constantly in the university and in the profession in the video that is almost unwatchable. "The real world doesn't work that way." They pretend they didn't have to do conceptual design just to develop imagination for the first two years. I understand that they are looking at things through an architect's eyes, but these buildings are not about general disciplines, but about aesthetics. It's a good thing they don't start peddling that the building is impossible to base on that little mound of dirt on the side of the hill. I used to play Minecraft when I was 14-15 years old and it was extremely fun. I had fellow students who visualized their midterm submissions and even their thesis projects in Minecraft. Most of the newly graduated architects were inspired to enter the profession by games like Minecraft, Sims.

[@ven9394]

And another thing is all these builds are built using what's called "creative mode" where you are immortal and have unlimited access to all blocks and items and have the ability to fly. If you want to see some builds built by players who have to gather the resources and deal with enemy creatures, then search for "HermitCraft " and the builds are just as good if not better.

The lighting isn’t even vanilla (meaning that the lighting was installed by the player to their computer to make the game a lot of bright and semi realistic but it doesn’t look like that naturally) it’s called using shaders.

[@shadowboy0126]

Players can import their own textures into the game to change the look of it to fit whatever style they're going for. The reason some of it has very realistic water, lighting, and clouds is due to sort of specialized mods called Shaders that enhance the visuals of the game on a much more technical level than texture packs. I really hope architects become much more prevalent and their work much more prevalent in America cause she is right. America has a lot of boring, poorly designed buildings.

[@SnowmanBiggz]

Something I find interesting about their reactions is they react to the time-lapses and don't seem to recognize it's a time-lapse. And they comment about real life aspects that don't apply to the game but ultimately get shown in non fantastical builds...like anything built that can be fantasy but is seen in real life, barns, castle's, etc that aren't floating and so on often have logical foundations, supports, etc they just might not be built in the correct order of a real life building. Minecraft, when it comes to builds, is less about the process and more about the product. They also don't realize the game still looks the same, but there are texture packs (the dude briefly asked if that was a thing players could do) and shaders for lighting and so on. They really should play the game for a bit to get used to what players have to work with, then react to more builds like the team one.

I wanna see these guys react to Ultrakill. In terms of retro shooters that game has probably the best/most diverse level design out of all retro shooter I've seen.

[@morpho5539]

I want to see medieval historians react to video games like Kingdom Come or the Witcher 3

[@Wolfmann2758]

THESE FOLKS ARE SO SMART AND THERES NO ONE THERE TO ANSWER THEIR QUESTIONS 😭😭😭😭

[@JustinoElArtista]

There have been a lot of interviews and indepth coverage of GoT's opening cinematic. I imagine the players working on that massive build pulled screenshots of them and the sets to work out how to build them. Ridiculously impressive.

[@virusO1OOOOO1]

Did not have the bell on and I missed this release never again 😂

[@jetsiel8885]

I actually wanted to be an architect when I was younger so Minecraft let me live that in a way I made city villages where me and all my friends had rolls was real fun.

[@IngloriousBastard616]

Maybe next they can react to people rebuilding the ancient city.

[@oreoicecream1829]

They should explain this game properly especially the fact that the first build is built in survival

[@toxicbbpg]

Whoever was in charge of editing their face cams gave me multiple spasms.

[@harrythompson4429]

If I got a dollar for every time this guy says legos and blocky, I would've hired him to make these builds in real life.....

[@GGCannon]

One video I'd love to see: Get a few professional architects and sculptors, give them a good VR device and get them "Tilt Brush". Give them 1 week to create whatever they want and as many stuff as they can in that 1 week. Doesn't matter if it is 1 week in a single project or several creations in the same week, they have full freedom. Then get them to react to each other's creations (outside VR with pictures and then inside VR so that they can look around those creations showing their perspectives). That ought to be amazing.

[@ianswinford5570]

Even with a team of people helping me, I couldn’t build even one of the beautiful castles in this video. I’m so jealous!

[@SuperBreadGod]

You know you're build's is majestic when architect's reacts to it

[@RedZenGaming]

You should have these two react to some Planet Coaster Builds, the custom buildings and rides and theme parks people put together are mind-blowing.

[@kinpotato_2843]

Honestly one of my favourite series

[@shardinhand1243]

2:24 yes you can visit these worlds in the game and explore them yourself you can also edit them, these are just saved game worlds freely posted online to get and put into your own copy of minecraft to experiance,

[@ladyrayylin3268]

It feels like they are overly pretentious because they don’t want their colleagues to see them genuinely enjoying a game. An architect experiencing Minecraft should be a fricken dream. No real life concerns just the build you’ve always wanted to come to life.

[@YuukiruKurosaki]

The caste shown at 2:55 is actually not in Bavaria, its in Baden-Württemberg and is called "Burg Hohenzollern", i live in a small town net to it. Its really a beautiful castle :D

[@generalfeldmarschall3781]

And then they show the munich town Hall next

[@luciferdiablo4890]

They should react to the Elysium build that was insane

[@lioneljonson1149]

I used to build stuff similar to this but wound up quitting after severe burnout.

[@averagejoe413]

I'm 45 I still play Minecraft. I design lots of structures but have no formal training in artitect or anything like it. Just for fun but gets my creative juices flowing playing minecraft Some of these epic builders are only kids and teenagers. I think Minecraft is an amazing way to get kids into architect

[@AzaleaLuna]

I just came upon this. I would love to see them actually play the game and build something. That would be fun. So vanilla Minecraft does not look like what they are watching here in this video. There are "texture" packs which change the way the blocks and items in the game look. And the atmosphere, the way the clouds, lighting, fluffy greenery and the way water looks is achieved by using "shader" packs. That Japanese build where they were smoothing out the blocks was probably done in "World Edit". That is what map makers use to make adventure maps or CTM(Complete the Monument) maps. When people first look at Minecraft they of course see a bunch of blocks, but once you get into the game you realize there is so so so much more to it than just that. I really enjoyed the video.

[@Mr.Scootini]

“Only 3% of building are built by architects.” THANK GOD! Things would look amazing but yet have terrible engineering.

[@yukiniadreamwanderer]

It would be fun to get theyre reactions to vintage story there you have the same blocks but can do a lot more with them in forms of design and decoration

[@John2r1]

They are using a filter to change the skins of the blocks and a program that changes the sky to be more realistic . They are also building the trees by hand to make them the shape they want.

[@erikhoryza9068]

Architecture is a vital trade. It's mathematics, logic building, imagination (foresight), history, and has so many other relavancies.

[@user-yl3fz6sc5w]

So the way massive team builds work are intresting. basically appears a person, who gathers people with a same idea and he sets time. After that they either divide into a groups of up to 4 people or if there is oly like 10 people they divide into pairs. Everything that comes after is an a chaotic, organic building proccess

[@LoudPlateAndy]

Ayy, the guy that was about to awaken an ancient Egypt god is back

[@SgtPunter]

Next: caveman reacts to ark: survival evolved

[@porros_y_cafe]

Grate video, just gonna give some important information. You can change the texture of the blocks and also the way light works. Some of this builds are made complete by hand. That means that the players had to place every single block for the build. Some are made with some programs. Don’t really know the names of these programs but it’s also hard work. Hope this helps for future videos. Grate video guys 🖤

[@macmcleod1188]

So you guys... Minecraft can be rendered photorealistically. And the trees are still blocks- but they have "mods" which make each block a bit rounder. And different "texture packs" and "resource" packs can completely change the look from abstract (no detail) to extremely realistic to stylistic. I recognize a well known texture pack named "conquest" which is very medieval looking. But change the pack and suddenly it can be very modern. The rendering is independent of the underlying structure. *also* there are four very different ways of playing. 1) Creatively where all the blocks are free. 2) Creatively plus world editing tools that make it easy to do a lot quicly. 3) In Survival mode. where you must personally go mine, dig, or grow every block you place (even worse when monsters can attack you) 4) In Skyblock mode. Here you literally only have stone, stone brick, and cobblestone (hence the gray pallete) and one kind of wood. The first example was Skyblock mode. In that mode, you create the blocks from an interaction of flowing lava and water that make cobblestone between them. Only later in the game would you get access to colors. The game is cheap. About $30 / $29 euros. I've seen other architects play and they seem to enjoy it.

[@User-friendlyno123]

These two should definitely react to chris's universe build..

[@TankZer023]

we need a Architects REACT to The Evolution Of Building In Minecraft PLEASE!

[@rexanderson4585]

5:40 to answer your question in Minecraft your you are able to import stuff like texture packs mods shaders etc etc from what I can tell most of if not all the stuff you were reacting to today had used both different texture packs and shaders you can also use mods to add a new blocks some which are very complex

[@charlie_mk7.5]

the first one is impressive because it was done in skyblock survival, they built it from nothing but a single tree and a cobblestone generator
