Season 7 likely wouldn't have the whole mayor plot line without Grian, as it started because Grian proposed the idea by placing the Mumbo for Mayor posters around. So without him to start it, it likely would've remained the same as previous shopping districts.

@@ronyahskoldenstrom2733 pretty sure it’s the same for me, without grian I either wouldve never seen hermitcraft, or just taken longer to start watching it, since the only hermitcraftubers I watched when I started watching during hermitcraft 7, and I think I started watching hermitcraft while looking through grians channel, because I don’t think I really watched either of them, was just kinda aware of their existence and slightly interesting in the building and red stone videos on the occasion I was interested, and so while looking through grians channel I think I just decided that I wanted to check out hermitcraft, or maybe it was mumbo who got me into hermitcraft, who knows

Boy I am glad that Grian is in hermitcraft. He was the first hermit I ever watched (one of the first minecraft youtubers to be honest). I only get into minecraft because of hololive, then I discovered Grian at the 2nd to last episode in season7. Then I watched 3rd life and from it I got to know the other hermits plus Joel, Skizzle, Jimmy and the later I found about Dream SMP and the blade, the empire SMP, and the rest of the minecraft youtube community. So I am glad that I live in this timeline 🥰🤣 Edit: season 9 HYPE!!

[@bimlauyomashitobi421]

More importantly, what would have happened to EVO SMP? Grian was running a quite popular smp when he was invited to HC and quite literally abandoned it to do Hermitcraft. Knowing now what we do about how Grian affected HC, imagine a world where he further built up the EVO SMP (and perhaps a follow up after it ended) into one of the major SMP’s, rather than it fading into obscurity.

[@pingidjit]

I loved the Evo SMP. I miss NettyPlays. That was such a fun series to watch. But I am glad that Grian joined HC because it helped Pearl join and she is awesome. Funnily enough I didn't like Grian on Evo. He irritated me, i dont remember why. But on HC I have thoroughly enjoyed him and find him hilarious.

Didn't he state that him leaving EVO had nothing to do with joining HC back when that happened

[@chintamani5714]

I’ve watched Hermitcraft since before seasons were even a thing and I think that adding Grian totally changed the vibe of the server, but was also probably one of the smartest choices they made cos it kept things from getting repetitive and made Hermitcraft way more popular. It’s crazy seeing how many people only started watching when he joined. It’s also nice that there’s more variety among the Hermits in terms of what they’re good at but everyone has earned their place by being REALLY good at it.

[@semineutral]

To everyone talking about EVO I would like to point out that his decision to leave Evo was made BEFORE he was invited to Hermitcraft as state in his pinned comment in the last episode of the series

[@cosmic_sage0062]

I've watched since season 4, and when Grian joined the server, it was good to see the hermits enjoy his shenanigans. He brought some light into Xisumas videos and gave us another personality side to mumbo. I could also see Grian doing other videos than just minecraft videos since he did the don't starve together challenge, and he said he's played the game a lot. He's recorded a lot of other videos, so if he wasn't on hermitcraft, I'd say he'd have more of a variety. But thank goodness that is just a theory.

[@penguinpingu3807]

Love him or hate him. His chaotic nature brings more life in to the server.

[@lilyofluck371]

I've been watching since Evo, and I only watched Hermitcraft because of Grian. I watched since season 6 and I must say, Grian joining probably is what kept Hermitcraft relevant. Maybe Mumbo Jumbo can be in Grian's place, but Grian's chaos is just too encapsulating.

[@RossLemon]

I starting watching Hermitcraft in season 5 and I just watched Mumbo's videos. If I remember correctly (and I could be wrong here) but back then people mostly kept to themselves and did their own individual base things without much collab. Sure it was there, but not to the level we see now. When Grian joined, in season 6, that's when I feel the episodes of hermits doing a lot of collabs, pranks, wars, challenges, forming groups, etc had started.

[@53ra]

I started watching grian during the beginning of the Evo series (switched a few accounts around during the time becuase I wanted to be a youtuber but gave up) but then he announced that he was joining an smp called Hermitcraft. I've then consecutively watched every hermitcraft episode of his from the beggining of season 6 to the new season 9. Honestly there was so much fun and laughs and I'd realized that I've never watched a youtuber consecutively for so long, I usually get bored and give up. I always watch his pov during the MCC and there's been a lot of memories.

I discovered hermitcraft back in season 5 via mumbo... the vibe was definitely very different back then but the highlights were definitely when the community came together. grian's inner gremlin keeps making ways for the community to come together, which made the series more enjoyable. it boosted something already great. if grian didn't join though, id probobly still stay around for iskall. .-.

Would Scar have been mayor still though? I could be misremembering, but I though the whole idea for a shopping district mayor was Grians.

Grian was the first hermit I came across. I didn't know of him before the first few episodes of season 7 where I guess I happened to have chanced upon. Obviously I loved the content and proceeded to watch all of his current episodes out at the time and when I ran out, (maybe checked out a few other hermits, I can't remember) went to watch all of his season 6 presumably (since my memory sucks) after hearing about him first joining in season 6. I finished season 7 as it came out gradually, same with season 8 and like all of you here, eagerly waiting for season 9 :D
