I'm An Archaeologist... Again? ▫ New Life SMP ▫ Minecraft 1.19.2 Modded SMP [Ep.1]

Welcome to my New Life! But my old profession...?
In this video, I arrive on the server fashionably late, and embrace my chance to be an Archaeologist for the second time! This time it's my Origin, which gives me special abilities (and a few unpleasant surprises...)
After an incredibly tense caving session, we build the most expensive starter house I've ever made, hang out with Oli and Shubble, and learn a lot about modded Minecraft while decorating the house interior!
New Life SMP is a modded server with an awesome group of content creators from Empires, Hermitcraft, and beyond! Throughout this series I'll be joined by:

[@Pixlriffs]

Hey folks! Thanks for the support on this video so far, and sorry it was stuck in 360p for a while! I scheduled the episode to go live right away because I'm posting a Minecraft 1.20 video tomorrow, but KZbin took longer than expected to process it. The episode should now be watchable up to 1440p!

[@lightning_11]

It'd be great if we could get a list of everyone's origins and their abilities somewhere. I get a bit lost when you do colabs sometimes, so that info would be super nice.

[@ladydragon3648]

So glad I see the post. I have been looking for your video for New Life. I hope you live a long life on here. OMG that was so funny to see you looking at the world upside down like that. LOL 😸😹😸😹Hope it is not to long for your next video. I love your videos. You are the first minecraft people I started watching on KZbin way back, On your Survival Guide world. I even used the same seen from back them. I loves it.

Empires just ended but it doesn't feel like because Gem is still vibing with the bees Tim is still a toy And you're an An archaeologist Edit: mom I'm famous

[@hunterchi6971]

it's literally part of their brand at this point, lol.

[@waldzwerg7814]

What a coincidence. Maybe they got to chose their first origin?🤔

That is so true

[@fumarc4501]

As opposed to just an archaeologist, Pix comes off as someone who has wide interests and is an expert in several areas… you know, like a Renaissance Man.

[@tylermercado1445]

If you watched Pix's stream, you know he got Archeologist as his first origin. His powers include: extra drops from gravel, fortune, and buffed defense when wearing full leather armor.

[@joeym9186]

thank you

[@Dextrolord]

Thank you! I'm not familiar enough with the origins to know Archeologist was one of them

[@felinah2559]

@@Dextrolord it might be a custom origin anyway he choose, scar mentioned that beeing an option (that he missed out cause he didnt reply to scott in time)

[@Dextrolord]

@Felina H Oh that's cool, I didn't realise they could add custom ones. I did think it was weird there was a bad guy origin though...

[@-.kac3y.-]

Oooooo

[@ethantran5679]

This week on new life… Pixlriffs has finally started his journey as an archaeologist once more, visit the locals, and is questioning Oli’s true purpose of being a troll chest

[@tricmagic]

Clearly, it's to store all his hidden videos, only gifting to his followers one after months of gifts into the Chest.

[@perebima]

I can’t wait for pix to meet sparrow (Owen’s charater). Explorers and archeologists have similar vibes, one’s looking to the future and the other to the past, opposites yet both looking for the next big break in history.

[@thelegendofrosetyler]

I want Sparrow, Pix and Scar to all meet up, they all have a lot in common.

[@thegameplayer125]

pix and owen, the lore makers of new life

You worded that so well omg

[@ezlee0720]

Seeing Pix squealing about Shubble’s greenhouse is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen

Now, if I had a nickel.. Seriously, he’s just like, human squared. Why is half of the server practically just.. human. This is hilarious.

A guy twice

[@rinran1755]

Well some are in denial (Scar being an aviator and Jimithy being a Man but really is a Toy :D

[@DaviSampaiochagas-fx9dq]

Scar has an origin he just didn’t check it you can tell by the purple particles

[@Lumberjack_king]

I kinda love it

[@boritoslayer]

@@rinran1755jim had an origin it was a “bad guy” he had abilities after all.

[@merkitten]

The fact that you got archeologist, of all possible origins, is just great. Talk about a strong brand.

[@liquidminds]

Scar kinda snitched and told everyone how he didn't have a custom origin because he didn't inform them in time... So all the Origins they have in this series are hand-picked. Still a great series though.

[@merkitten]

@@liquidminds ah, I see! I haven't watched scar's vid so I didnt know 👍

[@that1fangrl]

@@liquidminds heard this on a livestream, maybe Shubbles? They all (mostly) got to request 2 custom origins. However, no one else can get that custom origin until after the requester has had the chance to use it. From Martyn's stream, I believe he said they got to pick their first origin but the rest are random meaning they could get a more standard public origin or one of the custom ones

[@Kombo4196]

Pixlriffs has those british museum vibes while visiting different locations

[@christinewhoyt]

xD On point!

[@valacirca_82]

Jokes about British Museum never get old 😂❤

[@lolli_popples]

Pix: We’re done with archeology. *1.20 has archeology* Pix: We’re sort of done with archeology. *Gets an archeology based origin* Pix: You know what? Nevermind.

I love the intro is him quite literally showing us his origin abilities without flat saying it. Always love the chill feel from your vids pix

Do not go into that airship! not until you are geared up, it is very very scary :D Can't wait for Pix Create mod contraptions! Pls make guides for create.

uh.. is the quality going only up to 360p with no option to go higher than that for anyone else? I just checked and its not happening on other videos, just this one..

[@wheee3949]

archeology take 2!!! so excited to see the new series, especially with another archeologist arc

[@Titter2]

Am I the only one who's only able to watch this in 360p? For Pix, I must endure!

[@frostedgaming8107]

no it is broken I think it was working when he first uploaded it but now it is not going above 360p.

[@shoaibmms]

Am i the only one who is unable to increase the video quality beyond 360p? There are no higher options.

[@frostedgaming8107]

no i can't increase the video quality beyond 360p also.

I feel like you normally have higher quality videos then 360p but quite blurry in some spots. love the video

"I have continuity for some reason" another classic Pix quote

Excellent start, as long as you can do a little better than 360p in the future. Lol. But seriously, can't wait to see where you go in this series!!

LET'S GO NEW SERIES! looking forward for this one pix!

[@StuStuStu2107]

Johnny, there's nothing crumby about your lore. I think you're better at roleplaying than you think. Great to see you back, can't wait for survival guide S3, I'm planning to play along in your seed.

[@GraveTheReaper]

sounds like you and shubble should build a quarry with create that goes all the way down to bedcrock... for shubble to always have sun at mines, for you to discover new things... would be a fun co-op project.

[@michimichiri]

You really just finished your archaeologist arc and New Life went, "you know what would be funny?"

[@xxxTheManOnFirexxx]

The Archeologist persona should just be the main for your channel now 😅 - it just works on so many levels Ps: the editing on this premiere episode was really great! And the starter builds. Love to see everyone so inspired on the server already

[@fhtraveler]

Yeah, and I actually have a name for Pix's archeologist character: Pixandria Jones! (derived from Indiana Jones)

[@jennymay9793]

Love the house and the roof is just perfect well worth getting the reeds, crazy how you got the archaeologist origin or could you pick your first one, going to enjoy this series 😁✨.

[@Snowstorm174]

I believe that the first origins for a lot of people were custom-made and picked out by them, it’s been mentioned by some of the players, Scar in particular said that he didn’t get back to Scott in time to get a custom origin.

[@rainmaker709]

Same warning that I gave the other members: Avoid that giant airship until you have end game gear. There are small, medium, and large ones and bigger=harder. That big one near spawn is the end game and will spawn Wither Skeleton Archers riding Phantoms just by getting close enough.
