When youtubers try to always make their episode more than the previous one, it can become overwhelming both for the creator and the audience. Honestly this episode felt like a breath of fresh air. Not everything has to be so polished, ya know?

I really like these style of videos. Not every video has to be super over the top production with massive builds in it. I know its not for everyone, especially with how youtube is today. But I think throwing an episode like this in the mix every now and then would be great.

I love how you paint with blocks, the rust stain on the wall. I absolutely love it every time its shown. Stoked you were the painting in IRL between seasons. Your unique style has surely changed the way everyone will build as this game keeps evolving

[@izzyliberty8720]

I was kind of listening in the background, thinking back to what I remembered from this Christmas treasure hunt being set up (as seen at another *Hermit's* video - not Pixlriffs ;) ) and suddenly "HEY THERE'S A DRAGON!" and I burst into uncontrollable giggles. Always fun to see hermits surprised at whatever happened this week on Hermitcraft, especially when doc's involved XD

[@royalFiddle]

Is Bdubs secret Hermit Xisuma? I feel like it could be, what with the allay totems and all

[@ace_of_spades3164]

I know how hard it is to work sick. Brain fog, voice failing, tired, run down.... great episode anyway! Thank you for that effort!

[@JakeWolven]

Bdubs pulled out his bob ross hat for this episode! Love these slow, art feeling guide videos he makes. They are so so so helpful when it comes to adding another layer to a minecraft build. He treats each part of it like a piece of art!

[@Yoshhhhh]

I honestly really like the slower HC video. Especially with the holidays and everything that's been going on with the empires crossover and the King Ren stuff, it's nice to take a bit of a break and focus on some smaller/slower things. I enjoy hearing your explanations and what's going through your mind while following your building process, it's very informative and it's cool seeing how small details like controlling tall grass and flower placement or using small differences in natural terrain can make such a big difference. Mega builds and shenanigans with friends is always entertaining and fun, however I do enjoy taking a step back to chill out and focus on/appreciate smaller aspects of a build or creation. I think it'd be cool to see a video like this every now and again, and potentially seeing a few extra moments like this in normal videos as well.

[@NiceHyper01]

I really liked the 2010 style of this video! It really helps put us in your shoes.

[@martijn9568]

This was still much better than a normal video from 2010😅

[@miketousley152]

BDubs, glad you are feeling better, and hoping for a quick recovery! Have always enjoyed your perspectives and explanation which have helped in my developing a building style. FYI - your face on the wall has a bit of a "Persistence of Memory" feel to it, which makes sense since you love clocks and that is Salvador Dali's key item in the painting. Merry Christmas to you and your family!

[@eagleladyofchrist]

I am a little older than you, and I am new to Minecraft for the past couple of years. I very much appreciate your videos and tutorials. You are interesting and entertaining merry Christmas!

[@DeFlanko]

You made me think about how some video games contrasts a color like a diorite stone with red foliage a lot. Might not hurt to add foliage on the stone for that overgrowth look too. Maybe some moss carpet to keep with the theme of "this used to be a thing and place". Over all a very nice tutorial on the thought process -- thank you!

[@umbrify]

Honestly I really loved this episode. The chill pace and being able to listen to your process as you work is really interesting, and inspiring for my own builds as well

I really liked the slower, in depth pace. Not every video has to be the next biggest showstopper of a build. Hope you feel better soon!

[@violetly_]

More episodes like this thrown in from time to time would be appreciated, slower paced and relaxed vibes focused more on the journey than the destination. Old school!

[@karlmadl]

I would be the happiest camper if every episode was like this one (reminds me of season 7 when you went through the process of building the house with the circular window as an episode). This style is why I love Building with Bdubs so much, too. Feel better!

Bdubs has mastered the art of being incredibly wholesome and fun, whilst still getting on with the video and even giving the viewers building tips, all while being ill! Bdubs may have been gone for a while, but he comes back with an over 30 minute video that is absolutely amazing. Content creation at its finest.

I love the 2010 feeling episodes and this episode is no different. The biome is pretty understated and I do like it a lot. I’m not sure about the red nether plants though. I’d prefer Alliums myself for the pop of colour but that’s just my inner Stressmonster talking. :) I laughed so hard throughout your adspot. The background cheers were just ~chef’s kiss~ And tbh I spotted the makeup well before you revealed it. You looked awful but it was too perfect. Great job on your blending!

[@S-Dual]

Rip bdubs voice. Also yes, this slower style of video is fantastic.

[@dannyc7839]

I'd like to see all the Hermits in general show the thought process more than just jumping to the finished product all the time. Not too much, but a good balance of both.

[@bongo6891]

Love the change of pace this episode. Slow, longer episodes are always relaxing; like the single player series.

[@isabellefaguy7351]

What I like about hermitcraft is the variety : some fast-paced episodes, some calm, some adventures, some shenanigans, etc.

[@Nephelangelo]

Two weeks without a Bdubs video was starting to feel like two weeks off my meds.

[@crschwall]

Bdubs, you don't always have to be topping your last build or episode. That's a lot of pressure you are putting on yourself. We love the content for you, Happy Holidays!

[@odde_617]

I like how you showed a bit more of gameplay while actually building, a lot of the time you walk around in the finished build and talk about the proccess but actually showing it is way more effectful. Good video bdubs

[@PrototypePlatform]

so interesting fact of the grass on hills thing, grass dont grow on steep hills because water rises through soil, if theres an incline, the grass on the top of the incline will be brighter than the bottom. good references are: -railroad banks where they raise the ground for the tracks -bunkers that arent very low under ground (the grass on top dies because theres no soil lifting the water to the surface) -and medieval trenches.

[@mystieflower]

that was actually such a sweet episode I really enjoyed just hanging out and seeing you design your own biome! I had a lot of fun :D

[@adelebooth2510]

Loved the 2010 style. You're so naturally entertaining that whatever style you decide to do will be PERFECT like your redstone. I laughed so much at your sponsored message, it was inspired!

[@Birdthefeatheredone]

Something you could add if you keep going with the custom biome is a place where the stone for the structure came from. A quarry from which the everything had been built.

[@windmill9998]

it's always so nice to see more terrain and biome-focused builds! it's one of my absolute favorite things in Minecraft - both to build, and to watch/look at, and because they make the world feel so much more alive, especially if you build things like this around your base. it's really fun to see the similarities in design and thought process between this and my own stuff, but you do everything so much more confidently, while i - as a hopeless perfectionist - spend way too long on each individual block.. lol hope you get well soon Bdubs, we'll be looking forward to your next amazing creations!

[@sleepydylon]

easily one of the best immersion builders ever, every episode like this inspires me to push myself a bit more

[@troys8709]

To be honest, I miss this style of video. It is much more satisfying, and I feel like its more manageable for the youtuber. Watching the video, there's anticipation to see what it will look like, and having you explain every step is the content. Newer videos the content is all progress about the progress and if you don't do a mega build you won't have enough content to fill an episode. You made a 75x75 area feel like a huge build without being boring and that says a bunch. Great episode, would love to see this be standard format (maybe for Building w/ Bdubs instead of Hermitcraft though)

[@salemoleander]

The vibes on the Express VPN ad were incredible. Glad to hear some of that was makeup, bc otherwise I think your next video would be a hospital vlog lol Really glad you're back!! Custom biomes are hard to do well and this one looks stellar. I've been missing old-school minimal editing MC videos and while this isn't that, it's really nice to see you build and explain your thought process as you work

[@pehiii236]

I really admire how bdubs very intentionally takes the time to savor this game still after so long. I've been trying to implement that concept of savoring more into my life. Thinking of things as art projects rather than something to beat makes it feel so much more fulfilling. I'm starting to think of Minecraft more as an art medium than a game. Really there's some concept artist level work coming out of the hermits, but just in a medium no one is used to.

[@ruffianturnt2550]

The coughing was hilarious, you played it well. No problem Bdubs!

[@beauregardhealey5659]

This video was absolutely perfect. I was having the worst day with holiday stress and this calmed me right down. Bdubs is the Bob Ross of this generation and I am so here for it. I hope you feel better soon, Bdubs!

[@bongo6891]

Hey Bdubs. You know on the right where the birch stumps are? I thought it might be interesting to try building like a bundle of birch logs wrapped with seaweed blocks or something to look like they were logged down - adding to the lore. Thanks

[@malliredeemed1772]

Watching you, the Bob Ross of Minecraft, slow things down and just share the process is one of my favorite things. Today’s video was only made better by my baby boy being home for Christmas to watch with me. BabyBoyRedeemed and I loved the biome creating, but agreed that interspersing the blue & crimson bits together (a few blue mixed with primary crimson patch…and a few crimson mixed with primarily blue) might make those bits feel more cohesive. What you did with the diorite, lichen & mossy cobble was so stinking good. I love that you always have a reason for how things are as they are. I need to grow in this. Glad you’re feeling better DBubs. Merry Christmas to you and yours.

[@Gandalfa82]

Don’t worry about making each video better then the last. Instead set yourself with a goal for the video. Tutorial, Co-lab, “Lore”, “Top 1”. Tutorial can be Redstone, Terrain, Close-up Textures (walls, Stairs, Slabs, etc..), Far away Textures (using blocks to add shading and stuff). Co-Lab - just fun interaction with others, we all love to see you all having fun with each other bringing the multiplayer aspect into the game. Lore - the whole Ren The King set Top 1 - This one is a hard one, put all the effort to make it better then the last Top 1, need a little bit of everything, keeping it all small (time lapses for the building side explaining your techniques that link back to another video), co-labs (if only this funny thing or two that happened between you and others off-camera). Mixing things up like this will make all videos the best for someone, and ultimately everyone.

[@grutarg2938]

I like that you have more short grass in the middle, as if people or wind keeps it short. The tall grass lives in more sheltered places near walls, bushes and at the base of steeper slopes.
