  • This is a herobrine tribute, a scary part of Minecraft horror since Minecraft creepypasta began. This is the true story of Minecraft herobrine explained by me in a Minecraft video essay talking about minecraft nostalgia and herobrine sighting, and it's very different than the dream herobrine video

    I've thought of Herobrine as a peaceful observer, surviving on their own...
    But what you are describing is far too real.

    I really like this depiction of herobrine. Instead of being a ghost of minecraft who haunts you and builds abstract structures, he is rather a presence, a thought, perhaps a feeling that right beyond that ocean, behind that tree, right behind the grasp of your render distance is someone, perhaps something, watching your every move.

  • @CelestialCelery17

    This is my favourite description of Herobrine I have ever seen. Not thinking of him as an entity, but as an incarnation of the accumulated fear that lies deep within us. Something you know is probably not real, but you just can't prove it isn't there.

    I've been playing since 2014, and I can say I've watched those 'HEROBRINE IS REAL!!!!!1!11' Videos around that time. This entire idea of looking back on what it was, not what he is comes to me as an amazing troupe, and the footage and atmostphere of the entire video gives that feeling. Your the only person I can find in the world that has the brillance and creativeness to turn a popular yet old game into basically a liminal space. Giving that creepy feeling and true horror without having to use cheap jumpscares or over-used tropes. No matter what, I'll always support your work, for it desevres it. Have a great day :)

    This video really encapsulates that feeling we I first had my first survival world on the old xbox 360.
    The nostalgic feeling of being watched, just curls up my spine. This was the time that I came to realized that Herobrine does not need to exist, the reason why it's so terrifying is because he's out of our reach. We can't see him or hear him but he is there. The video really change my outlook on liminal spaces and nostalgia. You did an Amazing Job!

Your voice is really good at being emotion filled in story filled videos, but also just streamline and really calming in videos like this.

    As a former OG mcpe player, This feeling for me is far too familiar, The days where I would just be playing in creative, Building houses inside mountains. Trying out addons that I enjoyed, playing the game till I fell asleep. But there was one thing that always limited me from playing survival in minecraft. And that is the feeling of something... Something behind me, Patiently waiting for me to make one wrong move, A feeling that I was never able to take off my chest until I became old enough to understand that its just nothing but my mind playing games with me. So I dared to make a survival world once. And there I saw a cave... A cave with an eerie aura surrounding it... Yet welcoming. I entered that cave and left the world for a couple of years. A couple of updates later, The world was corrupted, A world that was barely able recognizable. Thus the reason as to why I had quit Minecraft back then.

    i feel this. i didnt start playing minecraft as early as most people, having started at version 1.5 and starting to really play at version 1.7.10. those times were fun. i remember playing in survival building dirt houses and in creative in amplified worlds, building secret bases inside the flying islands that generated, but at one point something changed. it wasnt caused by a particular experience or by a discovery, a switch just flipped in my head. I started to get the feeling i was being stalked, that someone was right behind the corner just watching me. every time i thought i heard something i would turn to try and catch it, and yet the scariest thing was that i never really did see anything. it took a while to shake off that constant feeling, but i eventually did. i still do fell uneasy in dark caves

  • @WitherRage

    When I was first playing minecraft survival on my phone in 2018/19, it was pretty creepy. I would be jumpscared by even zombies and skeletons, because I wasn't good at killing them. I didn't know that mending existed, so I never wanted to waste my diamonds and iron by having gear break, so I would usually wear no armor or only wear the armor that mobs dropped. and without optifine, it was pretty creepy going inside caves and mining. It was also scary being in the night on a new world with no bed.
    Now on java I use fullbright and I never play survival worlds (just not as fun for me) but I can still imagine the creepiness that I just never consider when i'm playing.

    This, right here, is why Herobrine / Dweller mods aren't scary. Imagine a Herobrine mod that makes sounds / opens doors / spawns structures always out of your field of view and *never* shows Herobrine at any point. That would actually be freaky.

    This is why we don't need horror mods for minecraft - it's already a horror game.
    I personally don't believe in herobrine and never did, but this video puts to words some of what makes this game downright terrifying at times. Forget "oh I didn't realize Endermen do THAT much damage" or whatever - the horror comes from the void of your render distance limit itself. How do we *know* there's not Something Waiting?

    Where ever he is, the house I built for him all those years ago still stands if he ever needs it. Showing the monster makes the fear go away, sure. But it takes a certain kind of person that is willing to go out and befriend the monster. After all, its all a matter of perspective really.
    What do you think he sees in us from his point of view...?

      Because it can be just like subnautica. Well, at least it could be back then. Nowadays the world has too much presence, too much familiarity, too many things out there to make you feel like the world is alive and those things are comforting to us, even if we don't like to admit it.
      Back in the old days, the world was empty, you were alone... At least, you hoped that was the case.
      Imagine if the next time you played Subnautica, there was another diver out there, ignored by the fish, just behind every swaying bit of kelp, watching you survive.
      That's what it was like.
