HermitCraft S9#13: Entering Decked Out 2

Tango has completed his long awaited and amazing dungeon crawler game, Decked Out 2. Today we drop everything and head in for our a first look at what he has made. We also play a few mini-games with the Hermits while we wait for our turn to play.

Etho, I want you to know, that you can make those Decked Out episodes 3 hours long and everyone will be happy!

[@readingchameleon]

Or even post extra bonus decked out content as an unlisted video, we'll do anything to see more runs...!

[@ChefSai]

I hope to god he sees this lol

[@wallyfarflinger]

He is unfortunately limited to 10 runs a week though, which means he can likely only make 2h30 or so of runs this week. Still not a bad amount of content though!

[@sninsilico]

@@wallyfarflinger You can buy more frozen shards at the crown shop

[@wallyfarflinger]

@@sninsilico with current prices he may be able to buy one, MAYBE two from the crown shop. If he was mostly buying treasure hunter cards, maybe he could do more, but if he keeps buying more ember seekers his crown rate won't really go up (nor will his embers tbh, I think ideally you want to stack treasure cards to get keys, so you can get higher difficulty runs for dramatically better artifacts.)

[@NathanTheMan]

Etho: What’s the deal with bathroom peanuts? Everyone else: *Did NOT hear the word peanuts*

[@MultiMazdo]

lol so true, even most of the comments talking about it didn't hear peanuts.

[@TheLadderman]

nor did I lmao

[@Brandon34300]

the funniest part is how Etho didn’t even clarify that he said peanuts and just played into it 😂

[@ObliviousMe3]

[@caulifloodle]

Tango unmuting himself just to cackle at Etho's misfortune at 31:35 is so good.

[@miniciominiciominicio]

That’s Tango’s long con revenge for Ethos’s penchant for manipulating doors expertly in Among Us to the chagrin of all but especially Tango. xD

[@nicholashalom1632]

This, ladies and gentlemen, is THE DEFINITION of getting Ethoed in DO2

​@@Healion123yeah, it was really nice that Zedaph dragged him out of the hole every once in awhile for goofy shenanigans.

[@Neamow]

@@lukedenbeaux6367 No Scar was right behind him, he was second to complete it but it was his second run, not first.

[@WitherBossEntity]

Impulse was the only other one to win on their first run.

[@StuffandThings_]

The fact that Etho managed to find the artifact, learn important game strategies, map out part of the dungeon, and survive even with terrible luck all on his first run is testament to his skill at game strategy. The fact that Tango died afterwards is just icing on the cake lol

[@bobosaurus331]

And he got a key so he could’ve gone to level 2 as well

[@apersonwhomayormaynotexist9868]

​@@bobosaurus331yeah but it's pointless to go to level 2 if you don't have a level 2 artifact, it just gets you more hazard and clank pointlessly

[@RottenBen]

His second run also had bad luck with at least a third of the doors in the entrance way already being shut to hazard, plus the early introduction of vexes.

[@TytonidaeIndustries]

Tango TOTALY wasnt sabotaging Etho too =P

[@sunlighticegirl]

@@apersonwhomayormaynotexist9868 Plus once you unlock the next level that’s where ALL of the treasure releases

[@BlahCraft1]

16:53 Context: Because the armor stands weren't locked, Etho was able to put a Frost Ember in it's hand. Tango is spectating every run with free-cam, listening in with voice chat, map in offhand (not his usual totem), and is sitting in the dungeon so he can hear the sound callouts (the sounds have a range limit, so he can't be in the Great Hall with the rest of the Hermits). He hears that Etho placed an ember in it's hand, so he grabs an extra Frost Ember, and goes over to the shop area to give it to Etho. However, this was the first day of Decked Out 2, Tango is showing off his Dungeon Master skin, and is only wearing his Dungeon Master Hood (retextured carved pumpkin) and elytra, and doesn't have his usual feather falling boots on. So, when flying over to Etho, he falls down a short drop hole to get there, like he's done 100 times, and splats because he's got no boots or a totem. This is especially ironic given that as of this run, no one else has gotten a win, so not only does The Dungeon get it's first loss, Tango also dies.

Etho rarely changes up his editing style (overtly) over the years, but the recent episodes having little editor's notes in the form of minecraft books is a really cool thing that I don't think I've seen anyone else do. It reminds me of youtube over 10 years ago when video makers added annotations. Lots of content creators add editor's notes in text just on top of the clips, but having the actual GUI for the minecraft written book pop up in the corner really makes it feel like it's part of the normal game.

[@BlahCraft1]

6:40 "Clank is based on distance you cover, and hazard is based on time" - Clank is also based on time, a little bit. Every 2 minutes (1st one is 1 minute in) a Stumble card (+2 Clank) is shuffled into your deck. Additionally, Treasure is a measure of how quickly you can "delve" into the dungeon, as the Keys needed to go deeper are a type of treasure.

[@P10ter_25]

Thank you. I've been trying to find out what is the stumble card for a little while now. Do you remember in which episode Tango describes it?

[@BlahCraft1]

@@P10ter_25 It's described in the tutorial room. If you look on Tango's 2nd channel TangoTek2, the episode titled "Decked Out Final Week Prep! Mega Stream!", 31 minutes in, he reads the book that describes stumble. (As for how I know the 1st one is shuffled in at the 1 minute mark, that's knowledge from his streams/VODs, I'm not sure which stream though.)

​@@P10ter_25possibly only described in tangos streams. They are definitely worth watching and contain many test-runs of the dungeon

@@P10ter_25 He mentions it in most of his streams (VODs are on his 2nd channel), I can't remember if/when he's shown it on the main channel. IIRC it's actually just +1 clank during these first few runs, he meant to change it to +2 but forgot/ran out of time before the opening day, but he's probably already updated it by now.

[@mattloulou123123]

Etho please upload every Decked Out run in full. I will watch every single one!

[@BlahCraft1]

Unfortunately, Etho doesn't have a 2nd channel. KZbin''s video recommendations algorithm heavily penalizes a channel if they upload a video that gets much fewer views than is typical for said channel, like uploading large uncut videos such as a stream replay. 2nd channels help a bit with this issue by isolating viewers, viewers who watch the main videos are subscribed and consistently watch the main channel videos, and viewers who watch these long form vides are subscribed and consistently watch the 2nd channel videos. Knowing Etho, he won't make a 2nd channel, and once the hype has died down, his runs will probably a cut of 10-15 minutes in the middle of his episodes. Since he relies on his channel for a lot of his income, he can't be messing around and self sabotaging it by uploading videos that drag his channel down. That said, he frequently disregards what's generally regarded as ways to look good in the KZbin algorithm (Thumbnails, consistent schedule, telling people to like & subscribe, uploading shorts, etc), so he very well be uploading long form Decked Out 2 runs.

[@ziggybadans]

Watch Tango's 2nd channel! He's been doing livestreams watching the hermits play Decked Out and you can see it from his perspective as they go through the dungeon uncut. Super fun, probs won't do it forever but for now each of Etho's runs are in those videos, unedited!

[@alexkuettel4131]

Tango did such a great job with deck out 2! Definitely a more than worthy sequel. The game's complexity seems amazing. Just from seeing the basic cards, there seems to be an important breakpoint where you need at least +1 ember drops to go from 6(lowest artifact) to 7(lowest permanent card) so I think etho made a wise choice. I would guess that unless tango plans on increasing treasure drop rate(he mentioned he might on stream today), treasure should be prioritized (after getting 1 ember card) so that one can sustainably run the dungeon. I think keys cost 32 coins(8 crowns) too... Treasure also has the added key drop rate benefit, and I honestly don't think level 2 is that much harder than level 1 in terms of difficulty compared to just how much better the rewards are. The main difficulty with level 2 is the access of keys, which treasure would also give. A successful level 2 run is easily worth 3 lvl 1 runs (the artifact is 2-3x more, and the treasure quality is better). To put it in perspective, 2-3 successful level two runs would give more rewards than all the hermit's day 1 runs combined. And it gets even better when you realize that a rare high ember raid is better than multiple low ember raids due to how the shop works. Also, im curious if decked out 2 will be like 1 where it had easter eggs/hidden opportunities that give huge advantages to whoever finds them first since this was something etho heavily benefitted from in the first game. I tried to keep the spoilers to a minimum and only used things etho knows and things tango has explained to him :/

Seriously the game is mind-blowingly good, Decked Out 1 was great, and this is like 10 times better, can't wait for more, especially from Decked Out 1 champ Etho :) Have a great day everyone !

Would love to see 'all' of your dungeon runs, uncut, together with your thought process behind which cards you take along into the dungeon. Decked Out is amazingly fun to watch, and if you're afraid that it might be too long for a normal HermitCraft episode.. you can always turn it into bonus episodes? Point being... me and most likely many others would love to see your full experience of Tango's amazing game. ^w^ Good luck on your dungeon delving adventures Etho!

According to Tango, you should always submit at least 1 victory tome each week, as it will be converted into bonus frozen shards when the week ends (even if you don’t get points). Also, you can save up your victory tomes between weeks and submit them whenever you want.

15:30 What a absolute champ! First run and Etho already wrangled the Dungeon!

[@RMBPrograms]

Love it! More full-length Decked Out 2 runs, please 😄

[@subsonicdeathmonkey]

What a treat! Tango is a legend for providing this game. Thanks for a fun episode Etho! Your enthusiasm is infectious.

[@Mystixor]

Rewatching this after following through all 9 phases is just awesome. Etho made a strong start, and still he evolved tremendously over the weeks!

[@hummingbirddeee]

I have been so excited to see Decked Out 2 opened. I've been trying to keep up with Tango's redstone and it's just mind boggling. So cool to finally see the Hermits playing the game!

[@firesong7825]

Would love to see more Decked Out runs and deck management/shopping.

[@CilantroGamer]

So glad to see you still killing in it 2023 my man! Keep it up!

[@zenfigment]

That hazard door to the face is going to be a DO2 classic moment in everyone's top 10!

[@davineasley]

I’ve been so excited to see all of the hermits play decked out!!!!

[@ChelseaRFord]

ETHO HAS BLESSED US THIS DAY!

[@levchenkodarya]

I'm glad that Etho put the footage from the Waiting Room, because I was very interested what was going on in there

[@Lucas-zw2mj]

Oh my god this is true nostalgia. I remember the joy of watching you do DO 1, and now... damn. This is awesome

[@Adua2000]

Hey Etho, Considering that sounds can be blocked from Skulk Sensors using wool, what would you think about wool actually dampening the sounds of Redstone machines? I think it could make mini games a lot more immersive, and things like dropper elevators a lot more base-friendly. Besides a better inventory system, which Quality of Life Features would you like to see added to Minecraft? Love your videos! :D

[@SceptilePetile]

So awesome to see this! Have been really excited to see your content on decked out! Hope you’re taking care :)

[@Prince-vu4nf]

your runs were fantastic! wonderful job, Etho. you had hiccups from the dungeon and still managed to pull out two wins so early on! I can't wait for you to see the rest of the dungeon, and the artifacts! be sure to read them, because there's a lot of love and care in the artifacts alone. Tango's worked so hard for over a year, and it shows. thank you so much for your enthusiasm and excitement, and I can't WAIT to see more Decked Out 2 content!!

[@Moe_Posting_Chad]

What a wonderful thing Minecraft has become. Back in the day something like Cake Wars or whatever that minigame Sethbling made was it. That was the apex of Minecraft meta-gaming. And now look how far we've come! What more amazing art will people make in another ten years?! What a special thing.

[@BraveSoulCSB]

I was skeptical about all the customizations Tango did in DO2, especially because everything could have been done 100% vanilla. it was cool and interesting in DO1 what you can do in pure minecraft having the idea and knowledge. But watching Etho's runs I had amazing time and I wasn't bothered by all the custom sounds or textures at all. the emotions are amazing, I can't wait for more videos from the game. Great runs Etho! :)

[@zackbryans4982]

I purposely avoided watching Tango build Decked Out 2 because I wanted the entire experience to be blind. Now that it's out and everyone is playing it I'm gonna have to go binge all of the building episodes now.

[@mikeb8094]

The way you explain things is incredibly therapeutic to me. Between your voice and your cadence it just feels like your a dad explaining something to their child. If I ever have to make a recorded explanation of something I'm hiring you to do it, no matter the cost.

[@JeraWizard]

"And that was the last time we saw Etho" It's incredibly funny imagery, imagining Etho just living gremlin-style inside of Decked Out for the rest of the season. He emerges at the end "I HAVE DISCOVERED EVERY SECRET"

[@igricRBX]

Maybe that's the reason he hasn't uploaded the new episode yet.

[@BakerPeter]

Let's goooooooo!!! Can't wait for more Decked Out content! Perfect in game audio balance by the way.

[@fdagpigj]

I think hostile mobs sounded a bit quiet, it was hard to hear them sometimes

[@neznor]

It was so great getting to see this from both your and tangos perspective, especially with how close those vexes came to getting you the first time. I can't wait to see more decked out runs from you! Good luck with your winter preparations Etho

[@elijahhall5343]

Hermitcraft should just do a season where they all build the most epic decked out dungeon together with Tango running everything, just because Decked Out as a game could be a whole series for all the KZbinrs. Like, we could watch an LP style map building, and then when they’re done building, they just transition into all playing decked out. A man can dream..

[@jack101mb]

Yes! the King returns to Decked Out!!
