Hermitcraft 8: FINALE - GOODBYE BOATEM

In this FINALE episode of Hermitcraft Season 8, Mumbo wraps up everything with the Mumbo Mega base, and the Mumbo Industrial district, then hops on the Boatem Rocket built by GoodTimesWithScar and leave Boatem forever. This season of Hermitcraft has been incredibly fun, experimental and creatively fulfilling, with a huge change in the way that I play the game. I am incredibly proud of the videos I created, and I hope you enjoyed this season.

The season started with you getting Scar to build a custom tree in front of Grian's starter base and ended with you building custom trees on Scar's mega base, how the tables have turned! This was the first season of Hermitcraft I ever got to watch as it happened, and I really enjoyed every second of it. I loved the storytelling aspect of Season 8 (though I'll understand if you all decide not to continue it, especially since this was a more experimental season). I can't wait to see what new chaos you'll bring about in Season 9! Also, Grian caused you to kill him, ending your peace love and plants streak right before the season ended, is a good reason to possibly switch to war hate and industry next season. XD

Season 8 is really the shortest season ever, huh? I wasn't sure if this moon saga was wrapping up the season, or preparing for a 1.18 update, but I suppose it makes sense to start a new world for 1.18, considering the generation changes. Anyway, despite it being so short, it has been a pretty amazing season, let's hope Season 9 is even better!

[@la95921]

I agree it’s so short. I thought another comment was joking saying about how Hermitcraft ended until I came to this video 😭😭😭

[@flawed1]

It felt like it was shaping up to be a good season, and then it just ended. It feels rushed and unresolved. I was really hoping they were finding a creative way to update to 1.18, but no. Here’s to a month of watching them build starter farms all over again

[@NicoTheCinderace]

@@flawed1 I disagree with it being rushed - I felt like it was a good a time as any to end it, so they can focus on the lore of the next season.

[@viaprime187]

Yeah they could have just updated the map, i mean that was the entire point of not leaving the starter continent. And with the biome blend feature it would have been perfect

It would have been very interesting if they made it so that the moon crashed into someplace outside the central continent and thus caused the moutains and such to form, openning land for the Hermits to explore, kind of like the New Village in Season 6 when 1.14 came out. Kind of sad season 8 and 7 both ended seemingly overnight, there was so much potential in both still.

[@danielduncan6806]

The ruins thing doesn't make any sense, considering the absolute enormous task of ruining things. I tried to "ruin"-ize a build I made once, it took days. And my builds are a fraction as good and as big as these guys make them. It would take weeks to "ruin" their builds. And it would take weeks, if not longer, if it is even possible, to create a mod that does it automatically. That said, I was also surprised. I thought it would just be a new beginning, same server, just different locations. Or something along those lines. I didn't see the actual end of the season coming though.
