[@FailedtoVerify]

That water is so soothing I LOVE IT SO MUCHhHHHH

[@SOME-RANDOM-GUY457]

Dude I've been searching for these kind of vids for months and i didn't know what to search,and now here i am going to sleep in peace... to whoever created this video,god bless u...btw can i know the name of the texture pack

[@phillipadodd]

It's "LB Photo Realism Reload!" with the Optifine and Continuum 1.3 mods. Thanks for the kind words!

[@flowerpixel]

Same, I want more... they're hard to find

[@kyliemccoy5569]

Hey, this video is somewhat pretty old and just wanna say it is so relaxing i have sleeping problems and tend to stress and freak out about stuff when im trying to sleep and this gave me such a comforting feeling and was really distracting thank u

[@albinofury0552]

Same!

[@johnnys_account1630]

This video helps me sleep...make more man...we want more videos like this

[@phillipadodd]

I'm happy to hear it, thanks for the encouragement!

[@itachisilver7392]

Did you turn this into a series? Cause you should. This is fantastic.

[@phillipadodd]

Thank you! I have not, but I have certainly thought about it. I'd like to do something with minecart rail sounds hm...

[@itachisilver7392]

@@phillipadodd Absolutely do so. I have watched this one video , like, 30 times. You could do so many different kinds of episodes with this. No-talking-minecraft-gameplay with the fancy nature sounds? Its genius. Sooner or later you'd probably build up a lot of views, too.

[@platypuscat2315]

Itachi Silver if you watched this 30 times then you watched it for 30 hours

[@cameronmorris2039]

this is the most relaxing thing ive ever watched

[@sydbloom03]

this helped me fall asleep, I really appreciate the darkness of the screen and everything not being super saturated and bright

[@scarecrow1310]

Ahh Minecraft was not just a game, it provided peace to me when I’d play, listening to the sounds of survival to the soundtracks was just perfect. It brings me moments of my childhood back and I loved every second of it.

[@raeanna7297]

This isn’t Minecraft, this is “𝑀𝑖𝑛𝑒𝑐𝑟𝑎𝑓𝑡”

[@z4rafina]

This helped me fall asleep because at night I hear a lot of noises btw goodnight

[@phillipadodd]

So glad to hear it, thanks for watching!

[@mftripz8445]

I wish i was steve, being able to carry millions of pounds of gold and such, strong enough to punch down trees and carry loads of logs, run, jump and swim. Then, after a hard day of work, sleep with all that weight effortlessly.

[@mftripz8445]

Steve has 36 inventory slots. This means he can carry 36 shulker boxes, each of which itself has 27 item slots. Each one of these slots can contain 64 enchanted golden apples. An enchanted golden apples is made with 8 blocks of gold and one apple. Each in-game block is 1m3, weighing 42,550 lbs, and the average apple weights 1/3 of a pound. All told, Steve carries 36 shulker boxes loaded with a total of 62,208 enchanted golden apples. To make this staggering number of the gilded galas, you would need 497,664 blocks of gold. Using the earlier weight, this gives us 21,175,603,200 pounds of gold. Adding the weight of the apples themselves, we arrive at a whopping total of 21,175,623,936 fucking pounds. For comparison, the average person weighs 137 lbs, meaning Steve carries the equivalent of 154,566,598 people, just slightly more than the population of the entire fucking country of Russia.

[@elizebethbray744]

I haven’t been able to sleep for a little bit but this video helped me get my sleep in.

[@carsonbrown9647]

I didn't know how much I needed this, after the first 5 minutes I was sobbing 12/10 would do again

[@IgMayEngel]

I am so stressed. I needed it. Tonight I am gonna sleep while listening to it! It's 4:16 a.m. I am just going to drink some water, put on my socks and after meditation... SLEEPING!

[@axthxrn]

Ya know, I HATE thunderstorms. But this is just so calming to me, I don't know why. Probably because it's mixed with the Minecraft noises and gameplay

[@urlocalgrandmafromthehood1911]

i like how the rain shows up on the screen and then fades 🥰

[@juandougherty6350]

1:07:59 “It was an absolute pleasure, thank you”

[@lunamationss]

Dude this was so relaxing to watch. I hope to see more in the future.

[@zhoom2498]

[@osiruq]

Got a crisis, came for minecraft. Not disappointed, I feel relaxed just hearing the noises.

[@constantinstoica2154]

[@phillipadodd]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@platypuscat2315]

That Texture pack looks really cool especially the sound effects

[@Penny58077]

ugh I needed this tonight, the sound of rain is very comforting to me so to have it here with minecraft sounds is perfection

[@mayabailes1653]

Please do more building in the rain! I find this great to listen to while I'm studying. It's really relaxing and helps me to focus.

[@phillipadodd]

Showing this to my dad to explain Minecraft and how relaxing it is... Great upload 👍

[@phillipadodd]

Cool, thanks for watching! :)

[@spicytunaman3172]

Love this vid. So calming and relaxin💘☁️

[@amandak301]

[@tireddoggo734]

I really liked this!! It was super relaxing and the textures are pretty nice...definitely would watch again for anytime I just want to sit down and relax

[@evesning]

thank you so much. just what i needed

[@Marshalltaufiq]

Thank god no ads :D

[@phillipadodd]

Ads are so not-relaxing! haha

[@mats5381]

When I think of ASMR I think of this and not beard scratching sounds

[@mavendeo]

All I wanted as a relaxing let's play. First, I found some girl explaining all the rules to some puzzle game, then playing it poorly. Next, I found a boy playing Skyrim while slobbering into his mic. Then, I found this. Friend, you hit all the right notes. The hypnotic, calming digging noises combined with the thunderstorm are very relaxing. Seems you did your research. Excellent job, friend. You earned my like and sub.

[@phillipadodd]

Thanks for the kind words!

[@dancingkow]

I love this just what i was looking for

[@ladylynx9891]

Although I think the textures are hideous (my opinion) the build itself and the ASMR are amazing

[@muffin1896]

The thunder scared the shit outa me

[@cornbreadrl2430]

Have had this video saved almost 2 years, i just bought MC for my pc but can i ask 1: what texture youre using, 2: if you use a console controller or pc and 3: how i can use this texture pack?

[@str4wberry_goblin]

Usually hate asmr type video's but this is really nice.

[@wixkedbruixes]

how have i only JUST discovered this part of the internet bro? i needed this, my day fucking sucked -virgo

[@rosesandmilk]

Minecraft does have a lot of nice sounds

[@schwimiiiehaiqi5325]

This is so gooddd pls make more 10/10 wud watch

[@HueManatee]

can i offer some advice as someone with probable OCD (and just a generally stressed out person like the rest of us)? next time, try to maybe use less jittery mouse movements, especially when it comes to crafting. also it would be nice to see items not go uncollected. for instance when you mined your furnaces, it seemed like you only accidentally picked up a stack of coal from it, which was a little troubling to me haha. anyways this is still great, nice cottage :)

[@phillipadodd]

I will definitely keep things like this in mind for future content. I really appreciate that you took the time to leave the helpful advice!

[@javaccount2121]

The video is great but it was hard to see what was going on, too dark, maybe the shaders are to blame? Otherwise, had a great time watching!!!! Definitely adding to my watchlist!

[@phillipadodd]

Ah, that's a good idea!

[@EnergiA854]

Thank you, I really enjoyed this video (it is the only one I found that has this relaxing mood), It would be very nice if you can make a video outside in the day sunlight walking by the water
