I Built Tears of the Kingdom in Minecraft

After completing Tears of the Kingdom, I was INSTANTLY wondering what the Great Sky Island would look like in Minecraft. So today I built up the tutorial region of Tears of the Kingdom, including Shrines of Light and the Temple of Time.

After I finish the rest of the botw map, which location from Tears are you most excited to see in Minecraft?

[@Space_Gamer1]

The wind temple

[@therealhadidi]

Definitely hyrule castle, along with hyrule castle depths. Love the vids btw, keep up the good work! :)

[@---li1oo]

The thunder island chain in Faron region

[@Froggy_Blindbags]

Mipha Court

[@duckbeaver6925]

Depths

[@squalycactus]

Though I know you are trying to avoid mods, the immersive portals mod allows you to set up dimension stacking, where you can put the sky islands and depths in their own dimensions above and below the mainland. This keeps shadows from blotting out the overworld too.

[@Cosmik60]

He could use the nether deltas to keep the Depths within darkish fog And can spam light blocks to keep shadows away

[@km-dude3459]

It would also work with the shrines of light, with their optical illusion in totk

[@EmilyTemmily]

2:20 I'm so glad you're using light blocks! When doing an epic build, there are always situations where an actual physical light-emitting block would look out of place, but light blocks are invisible when they're not selected in your hotbar, which is super useful!

[@happyfluffy1632]

I have so much respect for you actually doing that. I wouldn't have even managed to make the first island.

[@mangounit9678]

for the foliage color, try an orange color. red and green make yellow, and the sky island foliage is already slightly orange, so i think it would work out well

[@k_boo8232]

I’m confused 🫤

[@tryblight]

thats whay i was thinking too, the grass color needs a bit more warmth to it. the color in the video is close, but that would make it perfect

Your vids detailing recreating the Botw map have given me such a new respect for the little details they put into the map. Hopefully, Totk's caves and wells don't put up too much of a fight for you. RIP if you do the depths.

[@Ordinaryhumanbeing-cg5vx]

He probably never knew there was a cave behind the waterfall lol. I didn’t until accidentally stumbling upon it while walking around after already completing the game.

That shot of the island at night with the shrines glowing looked so cool!!! I'm still amazed by how much time and care go into these builds! As for the foliage color, maybe try adding some red into it since the game's foliage is closer to gold?

[@macandvern306]

This stuff is absolutely mindblowing

[@weatherman7467]

I know you always talk about how difficult these builds are but you make it look effortless lol. Your ability to look at things and recreate them using what Minecraft gives you is insane. As a geometry teacher, I can say this takes some high intelligence on your end especially when considering the intuitive ability for scaling and proportion you seem to have. Honestly I think this is a perfect representation of what the great sky island looks like in TOTK. Super impressive.

[@RobSeib]

The yellow seems a bit too green close up, but looks sooo good at a distance. Very close to how I see it in TOTK.

[@martindubner4200]

You really need to use a shader and skip to sunset for the Sky Islands to have that TotK feel.

[@weca1022]

It's so weird bc the game has barely been out for two months and this is already giving me nostalgia :') the build is amazing, I wish I could live on this map

[@blokvader8283]

Oddly enough I get the exact same feeling It just has such a different feel to everything else in the game, and it's the only area like it, at the VERY start of the game

[@clava7851]

Right, I feel the same! Nothing will ever beat the immense emotions I felt when jumping off from the room of awakening and seeing the great sky island for the first time, thinking “wow, so much more to explore!”.

[@vemijoev]

Just wish the other sky islands were as good

[@blokvader8283]

@mollydalmatian Dude, I understand that, I wish there were more mass archipelagos like the first one, the rest are all tiny with not much going on, Dragonhead island is kinda expansive

[@bluelfsuma]

"But this project ended up being longer, harder, and more painful than I first thought." 1) That's what she said. 2) That's the tagline for this entire series, dude.

[@DT10]

This is INSANE, incredible work as always grazzy! My only critiques would be that the temple of time looks a bit slim/narrow compared to how it is in-game, and imo just some sort of regular stone eg. andesite would look better for the dark prismarine sections. Btw, I'm pretty sure you can use a super simple data pack to increase the height limit of the world, which might be worth looking into :) Amazing video!

[@michaualtington]

i went back into totk and those prismarine sections are like almost perfectly color matched to deepslate lol

[@mt2r-music]

Totk has surprisingly low amounts of sky content so you’ve basically finished most of it. Against all the marketing the game’s main story point would be the depths. I’m interest how you guys are even going to build those. Great work as always tho.

[@blokvader8283]

I hope you remembered to build all the Bubbul Frogs, Koltin wouldn't be happy if you forgot.

[@You-ul8qw]

'I hate terraforming caves, and there are a ton on the great sky island' Oh. Oh no. Oh nonono my sweet summer child. There is an entire cave map. I hope you enjoy.

[@km-dude3459]

I know you try to avoid mods, but immersive portals would be extremely useful for the transition from surface to depths and chisel and bits would be amazing for all the small details!

[@Flagnightstar]

can we just talk about how great the main totk theme is? its awesome. Also I can't wait to see the light dragon, the stormwind arch, and the fire temple, alongside the entire depths

[@dumpster86]

The entire depths?💀 then it’s gonna take another 2 years

[@aedenoleary]

@@dumpster86 He might be able to just fill in the entire underside and then get the map, flip it upside down, and delete that part. (Also maybe change it all to a block he hasn't used yet.)

[@arkasytyt]

So glad Chubnox is back!

[@SkyeAyomiStarfield]

I love how it looks and I love that you are dying inside to do all this. Makes this map even more thrilling to play. Knowing someone had suffered to make it. I love that kind of effort

[@Livael23]

OMG this is amazing, as usual! Especially the shrine design, and obviously the temple of Time! You are a monster 😂 I must say though, I'm not sure about the blue/green blocks to represent the edges of the sky islands? In the game, the mold sometimes makes them look a bit blueish but in Minecraft, the blue sticks out a LOT imo. But everything else is perfect 👌

[@Luke_Dalton]

I'm making a sky island themed base and for the grass I used yellow carpet, the top sides of hay bales and path blocks then for the trees I used birch wood, yellow wool and concrete, and raw gold. It came out looking incredible so if you want I recommend just trying it for yourself to see what you think. Even if you don't do it I still love how it looks, you nailed the zonai buildings much better than I did.

[@sellerspiano9811]

I made a sky island and used path blocks. It’s the perfect color imo. I used wool for the tree leavea

[@kfbrules]

I think you should have added chests

[@Luke_Dalton]

@@sellerspiano9811 That's what I did at first but it just didn't feel right so I added hay and carpet. Path blocks definitely are the way to go but it's up to the builder if they want more variation or not.

[@sellerspiano9811]

@@Luke_Dalton omg hay is genius. Tbh I’m not the best builder so it looks a little boring up top (literaly just path blocks and azalea trees replaced with wool) so I tried to make one of those little blue zonai light things with a soul campfire

[@Amy-yf9zc]

the grass you did looks a bit green because it's adding a yellow tone ONTO the base green, it's not just making a yellow grass texture. what you want to do it make the colour a bit more in the orange direction

[@mk45232]

You could flip the island and build it bottom up when it comes to the underside, then just reflip it. I find it easier building that way, because I feel like the WorldEdit smoothing tool behaves very strangely upside down.

[@OFFICIALBENNYGAMING]

You are so underrated!! Your builds are mad inspiring!

I went back to the great sky island, and it was in a cave I have never seen before, literally right in front of my face.

Just got so startled when I heard Windmill Hut/Song of Storms in the background at around 21:30, and as for some other details, I think the shrines are already really cool, but at the bottom of the green-blue swirl, which is more blue, I’d suggest maybe using or trying sea lanterns because those are more blue, then maybe switch to the green frog lights already there? I think it would help keep the different colors bright while lighting it up. Amazing work though!
