average Mojang "put more effort into a single april fools update than the entire vanilla game has gotten in 3 whole years" kinda update vibes

🤓

the explanations of liminality could be way better but still good video :3

Pfft XD "Moïang"

2:23 part of this is a reference to the book and movie 2010: odyssey two! it uses the movie version of the quote, and the original was "All these worlds are yours, except Europa. Attempt no landings there." It came after Jupiter was turned into a star, transforming the Jovian system into a new star system for humanity to explore (but not europa, since there were others to explore that planet),

April Fools Updates > Regular Updates

I just wonder what the farlands would look like here

infinite library... library of babel... turns to library of ruina *sigh* sleeper agents, to me!

legend has it that an infinite number of monkeys, typing for an infinite amount of time, will eventually lead us to Aether

You yap so much watching this on two times speed is the only valid way of enjoying it.

they should left those in the official game, but make sure that the player cant bring anything back from those dimensions, it would be too op, but it would be like exploring the backrooms BUT IN MINECRAFT!!!!!

the what

The creepiest game is not made to be creepy.

When ever I hear of liminality/ liminal spaces, I think of this quote:”if these walls could talk, they would say nothing” I don’t remember where I originally heard it from unfortunately.

I want someone to make this snapshot a mod, it would be so cool!

Yeah I used this update for some liminal space videos.

Thank you for making this video. I love this version of MC.

This freaked my bean. I always thought there was something funny about this update, even back when I made a "playthrough" of it quite a few years ago... You know, if you really think about it, _the entire thing_ is Backrooms-y, even the "random" dimensions. One of the lore versions of the Backrooms is that it's "world generation gone wrong", and it could be argued that that's _exactly_ what 20w14infinite is. On a surface level, you recognize the things that are going on, the terrain shapes, the block types, everything. But they're in combinations that "should not be". Nether walls made of infested stone, Ender Islands made of magma blocks, a cave network of infinite empty chests that _lagbomb you every time you cross a chunk border_ (eat your heart out, Scar)... Even varying levels of "some places spawn mobs, others don't, some even do it during what seems to be daytime", exactly like varying levels of entity infestation in a Backrooms level. ...I should do another "The 20w14infinite Experience" series at some point, but make it more like A-Sync exploring beyond the Threshold.

interesting

If you're not careful and no-clip through the blocks in the wrong place, you'll end up in a backstage area with nothing but birch slabs, watermelons and podzol, an unchanging sky in the form of endless end noise and about 1,000,000,000 square kilometers of randomly generated desert landscapes to get you stuck in for a long time. May Notch help you if you hear something there, because It certainly heard you... - about world seed 0

I think Stabby McStabface is a Counter-Strike reference, but I'm not sure.

0:18 why does the stack look like that. its so. inconsistent. why is one of the portals 3x3

It's such a shame April Fools is the only time things like this are added. Im not saying they should be permanent gameplay features, but having what are essentially different games to explore in minecraft is amazing

There is something eerie about each randomly generated dimension. You're not supposed to be there. You're supposed to have fun for a few minutes then get bored and leave forever once you realize thete's nothing to do. The dimensions are unpolished, hostile, surreal, inhospitable. The snapshot itself is a joke version, you're not supposed to actually play the game and live in these dimensions. There are infinite dimensions and every single one of them serves no purpose. There is nothing to solve. Due to the sheer number of these random dimensions, each time you visit one you're most definitely the first and last player who will ever step foot inside that dimension. Once you leave, the dimension is lost forever as you likely didn't save the seed.

Slight correction. Liminality is defined as a state of transition. Places like train stations or hotel room corridors are liminal, because they were not designed to be lingered in. That's it. Contrary to the internet's general understanding, eerieness/nostalgia/creepiness are not an inherent part of liminality, but arise from seeing these usually busy places of transition be empty.

Never activate windows, I'm on my 5th year of not activating it, the watermark has become part of my computer

I wish someone made a mod for this in newer versions.

Activate windows is the funniest part of this video

love this take on both the books of Myst and the immediacy of infinity of Borges' Library of Babel

the backrooms are real

There’s one interpretation of “nothing to solve” that I saw on a TH-cam video; I like it a lot: The idea is that the llama dimension is pointless in its deception. Each room is meant to be some sort of relaxation room, but it’s obviously fake, because the sky is just an illusion made of a few blocks. The llama itself is also destined to exist alone forever, even though there’s another llama just a few blocks away, separated only by the bedrock. Why would such a cruel and unusual arrangement exist? There's no reason. Because there’s nothing to solve.

Don't get lost in Procedural Generation. You'll see things

Good vid, how would u rate portal 2?

The library, also know as library of babel

yap

3:42 looks like aleph null (song by LeaF)

There's a mod that does this better, Mystcraft.

20w14backrooms

MYTHICAL FYP PULL🥶🥶

wish the video was longer, this was a fascinating analysis

I’m quite interested in the snapshot and having studied it for a while. I’d like to correct a common misconception; boxes of infinite books can NOT generate an infinite amount of seed values. Each box will generate as many books as you like but each book will contain the same text as long as the box is in the same position. Moving the box to a different block will change the text output, however, any box in one given position will always output identical text. This is also consistent across dimensions, so the boxes will never provide more than something around 10^17 possible values. You can generate more than this by writing your own books though. Also the end ships’ generated books follow different rules so I’m not sure what the upper bound on that one is

Bro activate Windows

Moyang

if it were to release today they would definitly have a dimension named spookliminal or backrooms

761 subs is criminal. Gotta pump those numbers up! +1 from me gng, great vid

your feelings are irrational

How do you only have 700 subscribers

some of the worlds are genuinely maze-like

I absolutely hate that snapshot because it really makes me feel like God, like I'm some bored thing just randomly generating a reality and sometimes it's awful and boring and sometimes there's a story that I can distract myself

Im your 747th sub :D
