Imagine a mod that creates a new biome with randomly generated, interconnected architecture and rooms, that spans for thousands of blocks, vertically and horizontally, like the megastructure from "BLAME!"

I actually find the wheat field of build 6 scarier than the build, the way it stretches to seemingly infinity is somehow more megalophobic than the arch

[@gaspy2458]

Agree

[@bjorn0909]

Yeah, portal 2 end scene vibes

[@xanderplayz3446]

@@bjorn0909I was just about to comment that!

[@nategriffith-wrone3115]

Agreed, but for a wildly different reason. The way the wheat just stops immediately at the threshold of the arch is really ominous. Realistically it would grow a little ways inside before not getting enough sunlight, but here it just ends instantly

[@xanderridley-smith3613]

I got the same feeling, reminds me of the end of Portal 2

[@Salad_]

i think adding small things inside those builds would emphasize their size a lot more, especially with the holes. something to remind you that its huge

[@Salad_]

like a door, or walkway or something

[@midnight4685]

Agreed! I thought the wheat one worked well to show scale, but yeah it’d be very helpful to show scale with normal things on these giant structures. Really makes you feel insignificant, which is cool

[@skop6321]

im sure some people have done it already but it would be cool to make like a town around it like Made In Abyss

[@Panzis34]

[@anthonydembitsky3178]

I definitely experienced some megalophobia during this. For me, it feels kinda like a "weak" background panic attack, where I can feel my heart tensing up, but my mind is still clear. I feel like it's closer to a variation of awe than pure panic attack

[@karal_the_crazy]

It is like a tightening in your chest as you struggle to comprehend what you are looking at

[@BrisilaMekz]

the holes were unsettling enough to be megalophobic. And a couple of these, especially that last inverted pyramid, looked like some alien structure touching down

[@deepintermission]

I feel like a big reason why scale starts to feel like it doesn’t matter when things get too big is because there isn’t something to compare it to. With some cinematography and some tall mountains that look tiny in comparison this could look insanely megalophobic.

[@almessasorrow4950]

The world is flat for most of these. Less complex than having to render trees,Ores,Mountains,etc. all at very specific coordinates.

[@Miolaurent]

RESPECT for the amount of detail put into 1:55 had a great time reading the "video ideas" 😭

[@MartHommes]

I have megalophobia but when it comes to images it's very specific and they don't always trigger me. The pyramid one somehow got me the most. Specifically the last couple clips

I just want to say that I love your editing style, always have ever since I discovered your channel with the first scariest mod series or something I don't remember what it's called exactly. What I also love is how much it has evolved, but has also mantained it's essence. It's not simple anymore, quite well done (with all due respect to previous videos) but it still has the ironic feel, the comedy breaks in it. I just love it.

[@benbovard9579]

So there's this scene from Star Trek (2009) where Kirk is on his motorcycle in the middle of Iowa or something and then wayyyyyy off in the distance you can see there's these gigantic structures that gave me this weird but cool kind of feeling so now I know what that feeling is called so thanks Thrite

It would actually be really cool to see a video about your theory of liminality, megalophobia and everywhere at the end of time being connected. I'm really interested. Also tell me where you got that picture at 9:58 or im gonna watch you sleep.

[@Duutch]

A couple years ago I tried making a massive multiple thousand block building based off of etienne louis boullee's drawings of concepts he had for architecture. I ended up giving up a week into it, not accomplishing all that much admittedly but I think you've resparked my interest in that, thank you thrite :]]

Pretty cool, now make the tunnel for build 6 much much longer and do a liminal horror survival series in it.

[@slop599]

i loved this, i think you could've shown each build off more, they were beautiful and you should've rush over them! i wonder if you could make a part 2 but used some world gen and biome mods too to create some seriously amazing landscapes for your builds. maybe you could even try to do a thalassophobia or rather a submechanophobia video with more neat builds!!

Would love to see the megalophobia let's play! You might be able to make some more complex massive structures by using Axiom instead of WorldEdit.

[@daraross2802]

I love these videos where you build giant, liminal builds. I'm in love with the imagery. I also would just watch anything you upload so a megolophobia lets play is a win win

[@kades5456]

Have you heard of the concept of The Sublime as put forward by Edmund Burke and later Emanuel Kant? Cuz its exactly the feeling you describe, a Stressful Melancholy. Its us reaching the absolute limits of what our imagination can comprehend and as we are forced to reconcile with the lack of vastness in our own minds it produces that feeling of awe and passive fear.

[@ClaireHemati]

Build 8 reminds me of Newton's Cenotaph designed by Etienne-Louis Boullee in the 1700s. It never got built (for obvious reasons) but it's a beautiful idea. A lot of his designs are super super cool and have that megalophobic feel

[@Just_A_Simple_Time_Traveller]

The circle with corners build kind of reminded me of the Étienne-Louis Boullée Newton Memorial Concept, and the black reverse cone shaped one of the Ryugyong Hotel in North Korea (Also known as the "Hotel of Doom"). Very interesting video!

[@thomasdewierdo9325]

bro oh my god its literally the middle of the night and the knock at 0:59 sounded CRAZY REAL WHAT THE HELL and that knock placement was located RIGHT AT MY DAMN WINDOW. holy ive never heard a sound more realistic. i actually replayed the video several times because i couldnt tell if it was just being timed like perfectly or somebody was actually stalking me. bro my heart is beating so fast lmfao. maybe it was just my specific headphones that just make this sound so real or somethin that was crazy

[@Grayham4]

My AirPods had the same effect, and directly pointed at my window

[@bibitta]

The Gary’s mod one was the best because it had the most realistic terrain. The others kinda don’t look right with how exaggerated Minecraft is, maybe you could change the world generation:)

[@azrealducain3123]

Build 8 is my favorite. 11:22 Look at how cool this is. Prime location for a dramatic encounter. It looks like something from a movie.

[@noiseintercom2737]

I love when you just do random bs and it still comes out so good, good shit man👍🤞

[@ace2733]

Build 8 reminds me of the French architect Étienne-Louise Boullée, he drew up amazing mega structures on his spare time

[@nowayjose1870]

I agree with what you said at 0:54. I think all three of those things are related because they create a feeling of powerlessness. You cannot leave the hell that is the backrooms, cannot escape the mental deterioration of dementia, and cannot do anything against an object so large. It’s like the fear of death. Death is so scary because it lasts forever. Death is inescapable, unstoppable, and HUGE. I’ve died in dreams lots of times and the sensation of dread feels just like megalophobia

[@godslayer9000]

One of the most genuine feelings of megalophobia come from looking at the planets in our solar system. Even just the moon did it for me, although the effect is lessened once you remember humans walked on it like 5 times for up to 3 days at one point. Watching the gap between saturn and its rings and seeing all 4 major moons of jupiter alongside it is an ethereal experience

[@Chicken-rk4kr]

9:30 that sting reminds me of the arena used in popularmmos lucky block videos.

[@TimSlee1]

I've never seen another Minecraft player do this before so 10/10 for the original idea. I think the Cenotaph for Newton building would also be a cool building to make, it never passed the concept phase so I think it'd be interesting to see it depicted in Minecraft.

[@Chaotic_evil_duck]

I always misread these as megalovania

[@Yue_mariin00]

Bro falling off building 7 while looking at the top WAS hella trippy, i genuinely felt something i don't know even how to describe, lollll trippy as fckkkk

[@tamara_salib]

0:23 NOT THE DANNY GONZALEZ REFERENCE 😭😭🙏🙏

[@MrSonnyfy]

There are only two examples irl that invoke this feeling in me, one is a weird picture of shanghai on a foggy day and the other is the tower of unity, that statue is unreal

[@bryanwithawhy5739]

The feeling you are describing in the beginning is called the sublime. It’s a very interesting concept but hard to explain and very interpretative

[@kniazjarema8587]

I like the idea, you should make a followup. First builds didnt quite make it, but I get the gist of it. I liked the tall grass and the infinite wheat. It somehow reminds me of the Gladiator ending, when Maximus walks through the wheat fields. But in your case I think it makes the building larger, makes you feel something. Hole on the other hand, I think is the different spectrum than megalophobia, maybe trypophobia? Sphere in a pyramid is more of a cool idea, looks grandiose. But the last building hit the spot like a hammer hitting a nail to the board, spot on! It makes me feel small. Like I said, you should do a second one.

[@blakethegreat3093]

i think being inside the structures is scarier than looking at them from the outside. It's like looking up and seeing only the big structure. it dulls the senses

[@mr_pigman1013]

#6 just make me think portal 2 end scene

[@andyTV674]

Ok this triggered my megalophobia so well that i shit my self

[@Pumpkin-man]

Indeed, this is megalo- *COUGH* Megolophobia. Also for thrite, I’m gonna toss you Axiom, which is. Apparently a new world edit.

[@damprat141]

I genuinely love this shit so much, it would be awesome to see you attenpt to do one super complex megolophobic build and explore around it more

[@miners_haven]

12:37 This is because, very high up, rain becomes snow in any biome (excluding deserts I think). Why was this implemented? I don't know. But it was implemented.

[@Boby_ManYeah]

You should check out Étienne-Louis-Boulée's work. If you like megalophobia you'll be blown away (OIL THE FRICK UUUUUPPP!!! PLEAAAASE)

[@technoraptorv2871]
