Mogswamp here??? Maybe you could learn how to build like this guy in your world. (Don't take offense though. It's not that your builds aren't good... and besides, I'm not a guy who speaks from experience here.)
My worldbuilding heart was cackling the entire time with sheer delight, this looks amazing. It's like a cake with the perfect amount of frosting! Also, SIR. You did CIRCLES and MINECRAFT LEGOS in MINECRAFT. It looks so cool! (Also, I want to add: your friends' additions look brilliant! I specifically love the oil barrels and the lighting done in the garage!)
SAME, I spent a dozen minutes studying this build through a worldbuilder's lens, its literally so amazing, this is definitely the best steampunk fantasy world I have ever seen...the only one I saw actually
Hey, sorry this is off topic but this is the first comment I have seen from another worldbuilding lover, do you use any apps or sites to help you out? I tried a few like world anvil but it was so confusing and just made me more disorganized.
Every time shovel leaves for the next 2-3 months and comes back with an absolute monster video worth the wait. Edit: Guys this comment isn't supposed to start an argument, calm down. btw thanks for 5k likes
@@Productive_Chad then go find videos like that?? i don't understand why you think someone would change their entire content style just because you prefer it a different way
I legitimately think Mojang should sponsor you and add this map to the Realms system. They would have an insane adventure map, and you would have all the help you need to finish this off! You’re amazing!
I just realized: If Rat and Shovel did a TH-cam video together, it would literally break the internet. Godlike modder + godlike builder = mindblowing Minecraft gameplay
If it doesn't exist already, you absolutely need a wiki for this world. It's so rich and full of lore, it'd be a shame to not compile it all in one place. Also, this would make an amazing D&D campaign setting.
Dude, this Minecraft series is FIRE! Seriously, the lore is insane and the whole world they built is epic. Imagine if all that could be a legit modpack, like an RLCraft for epic storylines, not just crazy difficulty. We could totally explore their world, fight those custom bosses, and unravel the whole story through quests and stuff. Imagine how sick it would be to have that in Minecraft? Think of the possibilities! Plus, if they made it kinda lightweight, it could run on like any PC that can handle Minecraft already. That way EVERYONE could experience this awesomeness. This could be HUGE! Someone needs to make this happen, like, yesterday! #MinecraftNeedsThis #StoryModeModpack ⛏
I´ve commented at some point that I´ll pay hundreds of euros to play a fully modded modpack with the stuff shovel241 builds. I´d freaking hire people for him if I could.
@@darshan.sbps-1018 nah not his custom structures but many other great builders like the big youtuber grian (whos known for building) built the map on it
@@shovel241 hello I know I'm a noob and you probably won't see or care about this reply but if I could ask, could you maybe make a Japanese type village and a huge Japanese type building in the club penguin dojo style of building (doesn't have to be in this amazing build) Great TH-camr, will definitely subscrub
This IS insane... It's the best story, building, and game, I've ever seen... with blocks. My personal limit is about 100 block span. This is seriously as impressive as it gets.
Lore Idea: What if in every build, there was a secret tunnel system leading to the center of the map, where there is a secret guild of social outcast/convicts/people who hate the government, who are trying to infiltrate each of the cities, gather information and try to slowly destroy the. Hope you like this idea Shovel, and great vid
Lore idea: The rich people that trade with the water mafia should have a place of origin, maybe a citadel atop the slums of the world. I know it is kind of cliché but I would love to see some sort of underground compact society of scroungers barely making it in life while the rich inhabitants of a tower of sorts in the middle spend their money freely.
There could also be some kind of antagonist super power in the world, maybe the leader of a faction or mafia of rich people. Maybe just something requiring these steampunk metropolis' to have defence systems.
Lore idea: The cloud runner district is the main distributor to the various territories claimed by the alphas. However, due to the various goods and valuable materials stored within the sky ships, a group of pirates would form. This group would utilise the ships they scavenged and other leftover machinery to construct massive structures, hub to their operations, coordinating the various pirate clans and smaller guilds.
Lore idea: the iron clad union despite them somewhat rough appearance are the most friendliest of the bunch not shy to share a beer with strangers alike however they are the most looked down upon despite their intelligence mostly due to them being only brawn and brain and don’t have the cunningness but perfection in the eyes of executives of the water guid or the strength and no nonsense of the ignus collective Despite this the iron clad union are close to Jesper despite their rivalry with ignus collective and are also in charge of the pirates attacking the water guid to get their energy and uncover their secrets
Lore idea: Maybe you could add like a faction of dark magic users banished in an elvish forest full of magic, surprises and ghostly magics. They could live in a haunted mansion overthrown by time.
we really need a lore recap and an extended tour of all the builds so far T-----T I couldn't get enough of those final shots with the shaders, they are too good.
Lord idea: The geyser/lake/water volcano seems pretty empty right now. What if, many years ago, at the founding of the city, there was a tribe of fish people living in the lake beneath. The ignis group stole their designs for the steam engine, but, in the process accidentally poisoned the water where the fish people lived. That’s another reason why the water needs to be purified, and it could be really cool to have an Atlantis (of sorts) beneath the cloud runner districts.
Oh and maybe their is a small tribe of the last surviving membres of the fish people in an underwater waterfall somewhere this is where they can also puify the water to survive and have an alartnative crytal sellers?
OBVIOUSLY your builds are amazing… but can I just take a moment to appreciate how good your storytelling and commentary are??? You had me hooked from the start (this is the first video of yours I’ve seen) and I’m gonna go watch a bunch more now
I love when isn't just "build" but instead there's a Lore behind, that level up the entire experience. Just the thumbnail is insane, the rest is a masterpiece.
When you pasted all the ships in I audibly gasped. It's so beautiful all together. I love the teamwork aspect to these worlds. Your little community of builders on The Bakery is genuine life goals. Also I hope there's a good team of survival/creative players/builders that go back through these builds and add lore snippets, awesome treasures, and fun jokes. Just the idea of ship-hopping those ones flying in the sky for loot gets my blood pumping. Thank you and your friends for these videos 🐸💚
I think it'd be really cool if tensions growing were implied, with each of the factions building up military strength and resources or something like that. Like the water mafia is making water golems and preparing to seize even more control over the water sources, the iron guild builds war automatons and flying ships, and then the ignis collective is creating bunkers underground and raising dragons or something.
Are the tensions an outside source that threatens the whole Cloudrender District or an inside source, which is basically a "corruption for power" stuffs? Because, if the tension source/s are inside, that could basically threaten the harmony of the factions and the entire District in general.
i swear once this map is done you need to make a server where players can choose their factions and do their job from the lore creating an economy between players
You already know that when you see humongous, almost perfect circles in Minecraft, the scale and depth of those images is so much more than one could imagine. Thanks for including how you use tech to help speed up the creation of your builds. Absolutely mind boggling 👍
You changed my perspective on art in the GAMING aspects. I know code is art of its own, but the fact you inputted all these historical and detailed components. That is LITERALLY AMAZING! I love the build and congratulations, cant wait for more!
Lore Idea: If people fall from the undercity into the WATER VOLCANO and have lots of magic, the crystal content in the water forms into solids on their bodies. The Aqua Guild have to send out lifeguards to both save the downing person, and prevent the knowledge of the crystals getting leaked. This is one way that those from other guilds can join them!
or.. even better, they found out that the crystals formed on the bodies are even more valuable, so they kinda... Harvest them... and experiment with crystal forming on human bodies... With the "unfortunate" fact that people don't usually *survive* the harvesting... They're a mafia after all
This video is absolutely insane! It was super entertaining and lacking nothing. Not only were the builds mind blowing, but you clearly did your research, there was tons of lore, and the editing was fantastic. It’s easy to see the number 300 on a screen and think lightly of it, but between you and everyone involved, I can’t imagine how much more time went into this video. This is my first one, but I’m definitely gonna stick around!
The lore is awesome, the builds are awesome, the edits are awesome. I can't find one bad thing in this series. I spent my day thinking of ideas for you, and came up with some sort of mining nation with dwarves, who mine for the crystals and export them to the water faction eho proccesses them into magic crystals
This is one of the most impressive builds I have ever seen, and the fact that it was accomplished by a handful of people over a period of months rather than years is incredible.
I think it would be amazing if you could stream while you are building. Watching the builds come to Life live and whenever you have other people helping you it would be fun seeing you guys build
Your upload schedule is great shovel, don’t change it. It is a part of why I am subscribed to you, it makes it more special when you upload and it is very clear you put a lot of time into these builds.
The Sorcerer District (also known as the lost district) was the most powerful district in the entire map. They would use their newly found magic and teleportation skills to make an elite army force and they also exported magical items to the other districts. They were closely related to the water mophia. It was banished far underground by powerful wizards for trying to experiment with otherworldly forces. The City is somewhere deep underground, frozen in time. So a bunch of people are standing there frozen and there are floating ruins and the mysterious substance everywhere. The goal is to free them from their imprisonment. I don't know how one would do that, so I'll leave the idea to you, shovel.
Lore idea! if you think of adding a slum in the future, i want the area of the slums to be heavily guarded like there are boundaries around the slum area because the ones at the top don't have to suffer the consequences again. Since, there was once a revolution held by the people in the lower class which damaged alot of the engines and the upper class had to spend a lot of their money to fix it again. So, for the revolution to never happen again, the slum areas are heavily guarded like guards are there every hour and the areas are covered with high walls so they can never escape.
I wish that once everything is finished I could play this in some sort of lore heavy adventure game. This series is genuinely so awesome and its a shame that minecraft will never be optimized enough for shaders, moving airships and npc to roam the cities (with mods of course). However I am excited to see how this story progresses in the future!
I think he has mentioned eventually making a huge map in a server, and it would be sick to see npc’s and a very lore filled server based on his book and these videos.
New lore idea: The aquas control in the cloudrunner district is just a front. In a hidden civilization underneath the river, they used the magic crystal to make it possible to breathe in water and have most of their people living there. They got to the area first and immediately hid, knowing that they would be following by others finding the connected portals. Without the knowledge of the cloudrunner district or the name of the other one that I forgot, they have control over who can go through the portal to effect trading and transport. They use the common explosions from the geyser to hide their thievery from everyone else. If one person finds out about the secret aqua city. Everyone it in will be toast. You probably don’t want to spend EVEN MORE time building in the same place, though…
I have to appreciate your honesty. Not only with the other guys helpping you (their acting was fun to watch), but also with the other tricks you used to make the project. Other youtubers would just say I built all of this and it took me 300 hours, but not mention that they reused old designs and made heavy use of copy-paste and commands.
Bro steam punk is one of my favorite themes ever can’t believe you built this in my favorite game. Lore Idea: The Steam Mafia are trying to steal all the energy sources. Add on to it however you like Why not use red stone for making the engine move?? It would improve it right it could be learning red stone or smth vid Ik its long paragraph but u grew to be my fav yt Edit: I like Fortnite too
Lore Idea: Lately tensions have been rising within the city. Due to the Water District's illegal dealings, smuggling rings have popped up within and around the city. If the Steampunk District is like Amazon, then the sky pirate crews devastating the shipping boats are like porch pirates. It started out as petty theft but spiraled into large-scale operations plundering entire container ships worth of goods. The Mechanical District has been trying (and failing) to create robots to counteract these criminals but with many of the pirates being the Steampunk District's own citizens, many of their existing robots have had their secret faults exploited. Meanwhile, the Water Mafia has been exploiting both sides for profit, selling crystals to fuel the smuggling rings on the side while selling even more water to the city to make up for lost goods. Will the Water District's flagrant greed be gotten away with? Or will the residents of the Steampunk District expose and put a stop to their illegal dealings? Or maybe, just maybe, the whole city will be going under before then.
Lore idea: I really like the whole hidden gem selling mafia lore, and was thinking it would be really cool if you somehow connected all the districts and builds you have made with one secret mafia/powerful group of people that are all working together to consolidate and grow their power, and secretly control all the rest of the world. That way you could connect all the builds with a society that could be good or evil all at the center of how the entire world is functioning. Just a thought, and great vid as always!
What will be the ñame of the mafia I was thinking of something like the Steam mafia because of the District in one mafia but what do you think the ame of the mafia should be?
If you haven't already, you should consider adding cults and cops and all that sort of stuff haha. With a massive city and multiple factions, you may need some sort of faction that protects the city and prevents war, crime, and keeps everything in check and running smoothly.
I LOVE that unlike other builds you add a complete interior too, not just make an exterior and call it. The build is immersive and amazing! Love how it’s well thought out, designed, and executed. Super sick build
Lore idea: Deep within the hollowed-out remains of a colossal giant lies the Bone Coven, a society of cannibalistic worshippers who revere the giant's skeleton as their god. They offer the bones of their deceased lovers and enemies as tribute, believing in the ancient power imbued within. Mastering necromancy, they raise an undead army from those who died within their domain, known as the Bone Guard. Adventurers are drawn to their dark secrets, but the Bone Coven remains vigilant, defending their way of life within the shadows of their skeletal deity. And love your vids keep up the good work!
Another lore idea! The ships need an identification card or magic or something to start because the upperclass don't want the lower class people toe escape.
If you ever go back to the AI-inspired build, I have an idea for the fertile valley. Since the custom mob was a nymph, what if that played in the lore? My idea was a group of refugees traveled into this enchanted forest seeking safety and seclusion. What they found was a tribe of nymphs who pensively let them live in their forest. One day, early on in the cohabitation of the forest, a bounty hunter who was a member of the refugees fell in love with one of the wood nymphs. Using the nymph's ability to move through plants that could be alive or dead, they could move through the walls of the houses to catch their targets. When tensions got high between the two groups the couple would mediate and were soon given the role of leadership. Now, it is customary for a couple to complete a mission (it can be in a different occupation but it's usually bounty hunting) before getting married. In terms of build style, since the nymphs are one with nature all the plants have decided to grow themselves into homes for the people of the village. So treehouses that are made by the tree they sit in and so on. Similar to the Aeitheales from the Trial of Apollo books by Rick Riordan if you have read those but on a bigger scale. If you want, you can have some human housing be more molded compared to the all-natural nymph architecture for variety.
Shovel, you really blew me away this time, I will be honest, I didn't expect you to one up everything build, but you did! The cloud runner district is insane, and while I have not been watching for a while, I am now a loyal follower of every video that you post. I'm not sure what your next grand plan is, but I really enjoyed the Minecraft build update you did a month or so ago, perhaps you could add a desert, nomad land to your map. I also think it would be interesting to see another flea folk, who possibly use the magic gems that the water mafia is smuggling, perhaps the flea folk help in shipping/distributing the magic gems to suspicious buyers. Also, I just watched Good times with scar's new release of the Scarland book, and boy would I be excited to buy and see a book filled with your insane world. Keep building and thanks for starting my day off with your video.
I don’t usually pay attention to ads. Or lots of a video. But already seeing how much thoughtful work you put into even the starting phase of texturing? I’m invested. You’ve earned every bit of sponsorship you get ❤️
Increadibly cool stuff. This has not only inspired me to take a more serious stab at building in minecraft, but also to do more detailed world building for my dnd world. Thank you! Also I do hope that when the map is finished it becomes a Minecraft MMO. It would be amazing to see this world teeming with actual player life. Keep up the good work! And do not worry too much about the upload schedule. You having the time after all is what lets us enjoy these amazing videos and increadible builds.
Thanks for the compliment! I’m glad you were motivated by these! Fun fact: I actually made a dnd campaign for this world years back. Always love to see a fellow DM
Next you should build an underground labrynth run by a secret society that connects to nearly all the cities in the map. The society could be made up of people with connections in high places, or spies set up all around the known world who do their best to prevent wars or save humanity in case something evil were come and... You know. The guy who owned the tavern that you mentioned could be a member, or anyone else who seems like a cool guy. The labrynth should be a confusing maze of tunnels, with hundreds of secret passageways leading to and from cities with entrances hidden in plain sight... or not. The center of the labrynth could be deep underneath a picturesque ring of mountains with a lake in the center. However, the forests surrounding the area is said to be cursed, which is why nobody tries to go to the area, keeping the base well hidden. Not only that, but the mountains give them a military advantage in case anyone or anything tries to attack them from above. The center of the labyrinth could be an underground city, with not a whole lot of people, but still a few main areas. It could for one, have a training camp. This camp is for spies, or Rangers as I might like to call them. Rangers (idea from the book "Rangers Apprentice") would be extremely stealthy and skilled with bows/knife throwing. They could hide in plain sight, and are some of the most feared opponents in combat. Not because of their size or strength, but for their quick thinking and their mastery over their weapons. The camp could extend above ground for target practice, or stealth training, or anything else the students needed to learn before being sent put on real missions. Another area could be a library. The library could have all the stored knowledge from ancient times to today. This society, being ancient itself, has made sure to keep as many unique books or writing as possible that contain any sort of information they might use. There could also be a council room, where meetings are held when needed. Water for the people in the labrynth could be siphoned from the lake above. Food could be brought through the secret passageways. And if you want to make it more realistic, add air ducts to allow for oxygen to pass into the labyrinth so people dont suffocate. Anyways, I dont know why, but I spent like an hour writing this nonsense so do what you will with it lol.
"In just a few hours, we have a lovely little sky village." A few hours?! That alone would take me three weeks to do. I know I've said it before, but I'll say it again: the hard work and incredible dedication to your craft blows my mind. It's what got me back into Minecraft earlier this year.
Ok, I have idea. Boat graveyard. It's a giant mound of uneven cliffs that spike up from the ground. Some ships are impaled on these cliffs, others sunken to the bottom of the sea and a few scattered around that are stable... ish. I HAVE LORE TOO!! There's a small civilization of magical beings (Give them whatever characteristics you want) called Grogfins. My only request is that they hate the idea of other races entering their land. They are also highly trained and equipped in runes. A kind of magic that resides inside of the users' artistic ability. You need to be able to draw the runes to use them. You can also use runes on yourself for various things (to be figures out what those things are). The Grogfins use their runes in day to day life. The one thing they are most known for though is impaling ships with giant pointed cliffs that jag out from the ground. They do this by drawing runes on their arms. The cliffs that they were using at the time also have a carbon copy of the runes on them. I was thinking that the the Grogfins would use their runes to create cliffs that they would live in. A way to protect themselves from invaders as stories suggest that the closer you get to the runed cliffs the more likely you are to be impaled by stone. This is also a ocean biome by the way. I would be absolutely delighted if you decided to build my idea, and even more so if you wanted to reach out to me! You can simply use this idea as you wish but I will be using it in my own way for my creative pieces. Thank you so much for reading!
Lore idea: what if there is a night market that travels on the back of a giant dragon that has shacks and stalls but a large house on the middle of the dragons back that has the owner of the dragon live in it. There is also a few airships that follow it maybe. And there could be a tavern or something. Edit: my Guinea pig just died and it would make me extremely happy if you added a small little gravestone for him so he’s immortalised if you build it. His name is Oreo
if you haven't done it yet, you should do a scholar/scientific city. it could be more futuristic, with sprawling libraries and labs. it would have elements of the other cities to make it feel like home to the different types of people. there could be a huge community research library in the middle and lots of unis nearby. you could have different dorm buildings for the different cities, which would be a fun way to use some of the skills from other videos! also an abandoned city. since a lot of the cities have been inspired by different energy sources and styles, it'd be cool if there was a creepy abandoned nuclear power city or something. it could be like green steampunk, with lots of vines snaking abandoned buildings because nothing can stop them growing. it could have buildings for less-than legal trades that have been refurbished and abandoned train lines that people who can't afford proper places in other cities. sometimes, in the train tunnels, you can hear ghost train horns whistling. it would also have a summer and winter district, if that makes sense. half the city could be regrown, and half could still be in a 'nuclear winter'. scientists from the scholar city could take samples to study. this is definitely not scientifically accurate but it could be cool ^^
Lore idea for a different builds Nanoheim’s next clan that I would love to see is the shell clan. It’s on the back of a huge seat turtle, kind of like the lion turtles is ATLA. The main kingdom is settled between a coral reef and a lagoon, both are separated into two different sides. The coral reef section focuses on combat, weapons being forged from coral and other sharp objects, they ride dolphins into battle, because it sounds cool. The residents live under water in coral that grows in the reef. They pride themselves in combat and their vast network of travel. They travel through different bodies of water, popping up all over the place. Their skin is thicker so that they don’t get cuts and injuries from the sharp coral and weapons. The lagoon side is more focused on being diplomatic and uses their vast network of teleportation to find out more about the world and how certain things work. They live above ground except for the royal family that lives in a massive underwater cave that glows. The lagoon side is also the money making side, offering goods like seaweed and other under water crops that they grow. The terrain for both sides are pretty similar, flatter hills made of sand and other darker blocks, to mimic the shell of a sea turtle, the coral reef side is brighter with a lighter block palette and and massive body of water. The lagoon is, a lagoon and is submerged under water, the royal family lives in the deepest part of it though. The coral reef is called Tsuren, based off of Tsunami because of their fierce strength. The lagoon side is called Aqualeon. They both specialize in water magic and animal communication. Sorry that this was super long
Does anyone else end up going back and re watching all the others? Shovel is my all time favourite videos to watch - not just Minecraft. For me can you please make a movie version (no editing- just one after the other!) LOVE this guy!❤❤❤
Suggestion on a new build: The Fortress of the Chrono Faction Lore:The Fortress itself looks medevial but do not be fooled because inside the walls itself is mechanical gears.There are remnants of battles because of the numerous holes in the wall. Description:They are a faction of the best thieves in the world. They are also the mortal enemy of Brassholt as they've stolen forbidden weapons from them. So the Brassholt's assasins focus is exterminating them and retrieve the stolen weapons. The Brassholt isn't the only one they've robbed.They have robbed many resulting in getting many powerful weapons. They haven't failed a single robbery making them one of the most feared faction in the world.
This was a TH-cam recommendation i did not anticipate and hooollyyy this is crazy. I am super impressed by the scale of this. Makes me feel like i would want to explore a real city like this. Man fantasy is much cooler than reality sometimes. Amazing work to all involved.
I've been playing minecraft basically since release and I'm a decent builder myself. I've tackled large builds like fantasy-mega-cathedrals and whatnot. Some friends of mine are even better builders so I've seen some really breath-taking builds. However in all those years I have never seen anything that combines this kind of scale with maximum detail quality. This is nuts - I love it.
I've noticed you've been doing a couple steampunk builds, which is why I would love to see you create a solarpunk build because I've noticed you also do a lot of plants and greenery. So why not combined the two, I would love to see your take on it!
World Idea: Wastonia Basically pronounced like War-stonia War-Stonia has a huge army and trains 12-4 Their breaks are very much needed as their training is hardcore. They drink tons of water for their sore muscles and enjoy a huge spa day. However, in War-Stonia only the men fight. The women instead clean clothes, make food for the men, or replenish supplies. Only under extreme circumstances do the women fight. Men are only trained in combat and sword fighting. The women are normally used as archers. When in huge wars the women are allowed to shoot from far range. Their homes are basically like Viking homes and entire is Viking like. They enjoy combat and other basic games. They do however have a center where they enjoy arm wrestling. Tournaments are held every Sunday. Signs are placed all over the village. There are also 3 main factions. #1 The LockLines (They supply Weapons) #2 Worzons (They basically rule the economy and hire people for certain jobs) The final faction is the Sukashin Tribe They build defenses and homes for everybody. Basically the builders of the village. The locklines have a TON of blacksmiths and Suppliers. Every house must have atleast one anvil. These anvils are supplied by how long a person has worked. People with 1 or 2 anvils are not very respected. 3 or 4 are kind of respected. The people with 5+ anvils are respected by everyone as they enjoy gifts and donations from other blacksmiths. The Worzons Rule trade throughout the entire village and beyond. They split the money in between all three of the faction’s accordingly. Finally the sukashin faction mostly built up of woodworkers or stonecutters. They are very similar to the locklines with respect having to be earned through working. However they are very simple minded and have an almost peaceful vibe to them. You can find training centers everywhere but mostly in the main palace. The main palace is loaded with thousands of hay dummies that the warriors chop and slice. The women only train on sunday at 3 to 5 am as they must be warmed up to patrol the city as the men are at the arm wrestling competition. Before war the warriors feast, dining tables that the king of the warriors gives out are placed in the middle of the faction. Sitting at this table is a huge honor and the villagers eat as much as they can to have energy for the war. The palace has a gigantic throne that is 50x the size of an adult villagers. This is because the villagers belive has ancient giants as their gods. They enjoy praying to them as they belive praying to giving food on a little shrine protects them or powers them with strength coursing through their vains. They have many statues of the giant who where Viking like armor. They have huge clubs in their hands. Hope this helped. Guys I’m not begging for likes but can people make this go popular/ noticeable so He can see this, and if you like what u read u can like the comment just to help shovel notice the comment!❤❤❤❤
This was soo cool!! A few ideas though: 1. Add the secret passageways to the shadow market from the lore. 2. Add an entrance for the mechs to the golem garage. 3. Add a shutdown/alert button for emergencies for lore if something happened with the factories.
man if you want to take a full year for making those, take it, you are probably the best builder ive ever seen, feeling sad for not making it quick its like feeling sad for not making a nuclear facility in 3 seconds, take your time man.
Hello Shovel, I am an avid fan of your videos and I wanted to help you in accordance with the lore and history of your intricate fantasy world. I have prepared a massive lore idea that might help you a lot in creating your world. I have also been writing a giant fantasy world so I may or may not know how it feels to be faced with such a colossal task, so I am here to help. Let's begin: So Imagine something like an... Opposite dimension, what I mean is like a dimension not found in your world that is evil, and is a giant wasteland, something like an underworld but not really. |Description| •So here is my idea. A giant nether-like landscape where the ground is just a barren landscape of dark looking stone, a place of everlasting heat and darkness and evil, the waters are of nothing but blood and lava, I call it Malevoria or "Pit of Doom". •This place is ruled by the evil god Vargoirn(god of terror) (Var-Goy-Rurn), he looks filfthy, a head of a demon with three eyes, the middle eye is white while the other two are red, he has four horns (you decide where to put them), a floating Upper Body (he has no lower body), he also has 6 arms, two of which are massive spiritual looking skeleton arms. His skin color is read and he is very buff, he also has two skeleton heads on his shoulders as just a fashion choice of his, he is also not wearing a shirt since... Well idk. Well everything else is up to you. •He has a pet called Vainar, a wyvern with scales tougher than obsidian and fiery orange/red eyes that can burn anyone that looks directly unto it, he has two horns that have the color of a bone block and his tale can wrap around a building indicating his massive size. •Malevoria is a seperate dimension located outside of Etheria which can only be accessed through rigorous rituals or places where even the gods fear to go to, or unknown places with eerie vibes or portals that were lost in time. |Society| •In Malevoria, there is a hierarchy based on how powerful you are(5), which are the ghouls, beasts, demons, reapers, and Destructors. The ghouls are just basic citizens of Malevoria, they consist of power stronger than ordinary groups of humans (about a group of 5-10) but they are not that strong in Malevoria. Beasts can destroy entire camps of people (about 15-30 people). Demons can destroy entire buildings of people (about 50-100 people). Reapers can destroy multiple buildings or even cities of people (500-2000 people). And Destructors, only consisting of 7 members can destroy about 5 nations max (idk anymore). And if you are a little confused, I meant by the amount they can destroy, they can do all those destruction each. •The Destructors are quite literally, the right hand men of Vargoirn, they live in the castle of Vargoirn called The Twisted Crown(the castle is located in the highest peak called mount void), and they each represent a deadly sin (You can make their names or I can comment extra to write them). So the reapers, they live in manors and mansions up in the mountains. The demons live in middle class houses near the volcanos or halfway through mountains where the reapers live. Beasts live in small houses below the mountains and near Lava lakes. And finally, the ghouls live in caves, yeah, just in caves. |Lore and History| So the main part of the history is that in the days of creation, the god mightiest of them all Aiavan sought to enslave the gods for his own entertainment causing him to be basically ganged up on, and thrown in Malevoria along with his angel now turned ghoul Minions. He introduced evil to the hearts of men especially to the Alphas which caused them to Exterminate the Omegas. He also created the beasts of the land and introduced war to men. But his most evil deed is the introduction of dark magic, a magic never before seen in Etheria which destroyed the balance of magic due to its formidable power. Why hasn't dark magic been introduced yet you may ask? Well it is simple, the gods have agreed to not introduce this filfth to man and to keep it a secret for it will only cause war and despair and people will try to dominate each other. Yeah, so that is it... Pls read and try to consider this, my head and hands hurt, I have been typing for 5 hours now, Welp, if I need to give more lore, I will be glad to.
Wow this is the first video I have seen for you and I must say the editing is amazing combined with the great commentating and the story you tell You really make this video feel alive. It is amazing to see how much time and effort is put into your video wich most definitely shows in the product you put out 🥰🥰
I think I just realised why I love this guy so much, he started this youtube channel the day I was born 😮. I was just checking his channel description and saw the exact day I was born and thought, what are the chances. Best surprise ever. No wonder I seem to find myself coming back to this channel once a week😂
U should make a cyberpunk city next where technologies have advanced past everyone in your past build and you should have the city contructing a giant passageway to the moon or somthing where they are moving that would be so cool
I just had a random thought I don’t remember if you already did this but I think that you can have region specific foods or make the city’s have a type of food that they specialize in.
It's pretty cool that you used non metallic metal to shade it. A lot of the best miniature painters use nmm to great affect as metallic paints can be a bit one dimensional
I never saw a Minecraft video with such quality in all means of production. You and your company deserves severe recognition for this work! Awesome! Congratulations!
Watching shovel's video over and over, i became better at making plans on drawings, details and color combination, I can't believe that shovel videos can actually affect my drawing skills

Dude, this Minecraft series is FIRE! Seriously, the lore is insane and the whole world they built is epic. Imagine if all that could be a legit modpack, like an RLCraft for epic storylines, not just crazy difficulty.
We could totally explore their world, fight those custom bosses, and unravel the whole story through quests and stuff. Imagine how sick it would be to have that in Minecraft? Think of the possibilities!
Plus, if they made it kinda lightweight, it could run on like any PC that can handle Minecraft already. That way EVERYONE could experience this awesomeness. This could be HUGE! Someone needs to make this happen, like, yesterday! #MinecraftNeedsThis #StoryModeModpack ⛏
I´ve commented at some point that I´ll pay hundreds of euros to play a fully modded modpack with the stuff shovel241 builds. I´d freaking hire people for him if I could.

Lore Idea: What if in every build, there was a secret tunnel system leading to the center of the map, where there is a secret guild of social outcast/convicts/people who hate the government, who are trying to infiltrate each of the cities, gather information and try to slowly destroy the. Hope you like this idea Shovel, and great vid
I just commented something just like this without having read your comment yet, and I complete agree with you
@@Unfernally Exactly what i just did lol
i like this idea but with a secret guild designed to protect the city but not run by the city making a hidden war.
how about alpha having these secret tunnels to control all the cities
What is this panem?
as a redstoner who built various computer and one gpu i can't even comprehend the supremacy of this creation, this is completely out of my mind
I'm sorry for ever touching creative mode
Lore idea:
The rich people that trade with the water mafia should have a place of origin, maybe a citadel atop the slums of the world. I know it is kind of cliché but I would love to see some sort of underground compact society of scroungers barely making it in life while the rich inhabitants of a tower of sorts in the middle spend their money freely.
There could also be some kind of antagonist super power in the world, maybe the leader of a faction or mafia of rich people. Maybe just something requiring these steampunk metropolis' to have defence systems.
I love the way your brain works! /gen
Ostracised folk or those refusing the change of the world and the way everything runs hide in the underground!
Thanks so much! That's a great idea too. I just always want to make sure everything has an origin

@@jimbodestroyer1324 womp womp
Lore idea: The cloud runner district is the main distributor to the various territories claimed by the alphas. However, due to the various goods and valuable materials stored within the sky ships, a group of pirates would form. This group would utilise the ships they scavenged and other leftover machinery to construct massive structures, hub to their operations, coordinating the various pirate clans and smaller guilds.
thats cool af
Shovel, get working on the pirates!!! NOW!!!
And we can also make a rival, like a defence force, wouldn't that be cool?
The Falcon Guild
Lore idea: the iron clad union despite them somewhat rough appearance are the most friendliest of the bunch not shy to share a beer with strangers alike however they are the most looked down upon despite their intelligence mostly due to them being only brawn and brain and don’t have the cunningness but perfection in the eyes of executives of the water guid or the strength and no nonsense of the ignus collective
Despite this the iron clad union are close to Jesper despite their rivalry with ignus collective and are also in charge of the pirates attacking the water guid to get their energy and uncover their secrets
Lore idea:
Maybe you could add like a faction of dark magic users banished in an elvish forest full of magic, surprises and ghostly magics. They could live in a haunted mansion overthrown by time.
we really need a lore recap and an extended tour of all the builds so far
T-----T I couldn't get enough of those final shots with the shaders, they are too good.
Yes fr
The LORE TOUR
Lord idea: The geyser/lake/water volcano seems pretty empty right now. What if, many years ago, at the founding of the city, there was a tribe of fish people living in the lake beneath. The ignis group stole their designs for the steam engine, but, in the process accidentally poisoned the water where the fish people lived. That’s another reason why the water needs to be purified, and it could be really cool to have an Atlantis (of sorts) beneath the cloud runner districts.
Oh and maybe their is a small tribe of the last surviving membres of the fish people in an underwater waterfall somewhere this is where they can also puify the water to survive and have an alartnative crytal sellers?
OBVIOUSLY your builds are amazing… but can I just take a moment to appreciate how good your storytelling and commentary are??? You had me hooked from the start (this is the first video of yours I’ve seen) and I’m gonna go watch a bunch more now
Can we take a moment to appreciate the "how it's made" bit? Absolutely golden.
I love when isn't just "build" but instead there's a Lore behind, that level up the entire experience. Just the thumbnail is insane, the rest is a masterpiece.
When you pasted all the ships in I audibly gasped. It's so beautiful all together. I love the teamwork aspect to these worlds. Your little community of builders on The Bakery is genuine life goals.
Also I hope there's a good team of survival/creative players/builders that go back through these builds and add lore snippets, awesome treasures, and fun jokes. Just the idea of ship-hopping those ones flying in the sky for loot gets my blood pumping.
Thank you and your friends for these videos 🐸💚
Was looking for yr Comment on the ships. Same bro. Same
All I could imagine was Benny from the Lego movie going SPACESHIP!!!!! 19:35
I think it'd be really cool if tensions growing were implied, with each of the factions building up military strength and resources or something like that. Like the water mafia is making water golems and preparing to seize even more control over the water sources, the iron guild builds war automatons and flying ships, and then the ignis collective is creating bunkers underground and raising dragons or something.
Are the tensions an outside source that threatens the whole Cloudrender District or an inside source, which is basically a "corruption for power" stuffs?
Because, if the tension source/s are inside, that could basically threaten the harmony of the factions and the entire District in general.
i swear once this map is done you need to make a server where players can choose their factions and do their job from the lore creating an economy between players
That’s the plan!
@@shovel241 :o
pls pls pls pls you have to convince him pls
when will the map be complete? i dont wanna wait til im old lol
@@shovel241 OMG YES 😭
You already know that when you see humongous, almost perfect circles in Minecraft, the scale and depth of those images is so much more than one could imagine. Thanks for including how you use tech to help speed up the creation of your builds. Absolutely mind boggling 👍
You changed my perspective on art in the GAMING aspects. I know code is art of its own, but the fact you inputted all these historical and detailed components. That is LITERALLY AMAZING! I love the build and congratulations, cant wait for more!
Lore Idea: If people fall from the undercity into the WATER VOLCANO and have lots of magic, the crystal content in the water forms into solids on their bodies. The Aqua Guild have to send out lifeguards to both save the downing person, and prevent the knowledge of the crystals getting leaked. This is one way that those from other guilds can join them!
or.. even better, they found out that the crystals formed on the bodies are even more valuable, so they kinda... Harvest them... and experiment with crystal forming on human bodies... With the "unfortunate" fact that people don't usually *survive* the harvesting... They're a mafia after all
This video is absolutely insane! It was super entertaining and lacking nothing. Not only were the builds mind blowing, but you clearly did your research, there was tons of lore, and the editing was fantastic. It’s easy to see the number 300 on a screen and think lightly of it, but between you and everyone involved, I can’t imagine how much more time went into this video. This is my first one, but I’m definitely gonna stick around!
The lore is awesome, the builds are awesome, the edits are awesome. I can't find one bad thing in this series. I spent my day thinking of ideas for you, and came up with some sort of mining nation with dwarves, who mine for the crystals and export them to the water faction eho proccesses them into magic crystals
This is one of the most impressive builds I have ever seen, and the fact that it was accomplished by a handful of people over a period of months rather than years is incredible.
I think it would be amazing if you could stream while you are building.
Watching the builds come to Life live and whenever you have other people helping you it would be fun seeing you guys build
Your upload schedule is great shovel, don’t change it. It is a part of why I am subscribed to you, it makes it more special when you upload and it is very clear you put a lot of time into these builds.
The Sorcerer District (also known as the lost district) was the most powerful district in the entire map. They would use their newly found magic and teleportation skills to make an elite army force and they also exported magical items to the other districts. They were closely related to the water mophia. It was banished far underground by powerful wizards for trying to experiment with otherworldly forces. The City is somewhere deep underground, frozen in time. So a bunch of people are standing there frozen and there are floating ruins and the mysterious substance everywhere. The goal is to free them from their imprisonment. I don't know how one would do that, so I'll leave the idea to you, shovel.
Lore idea! if you think of adding a slum in the future, i want the area of the slums to be heavily guarded like there are boundaries around the slum area because the ones at the top don't have to suffer the consequences again. Since, there was once a revolution held by the people in the lower class which damaged alot of the engines and the upper class had to spend a lot of their money to fix it again. So, for the revolution to never happen again, the slum areas are heavily guarded like guards are there every hour and the areas are covered with high walls so they can never escape.
I wish that once everything is finished I could play this in some sort of lore heavy adventure game. This series is genuinely so awesome and its a shame that minecraft will never be optimized enough for shaders, moving airships and npc to roam the cities (with mods of course). However I am excited to see how this story progresses in the future!
I think he has mentioned eventually making a huge map in a server, and it would be sick to see npc’s and a very lore filled server based on his book and these videos.
I really want to see more content themed around the book he made please. It’s such a good thing. Make a video just like all about it.
Please
I agree I hope Shovel does this
It would be cool if shovel made like a second channel where he talks about the lore for each build in more detail.
What's the book called? These builds are really amazing I'd give the book a go.
So you made a steampunk building in an epic fantasy setting? COOL
New lore idea: The aquas control in the cloudrunner district is just a front. In a hidden civilization underneath the river, they used the magic crystal to make it possible to breathe in water and have most of their people living there. They got to the area first and immediately hid, knowing that they would be following by others finding the connected portals. Without the knowledge of the cloudrunner district or the name of the other one that I forgot, they have control over who can go through the portal to effect trading and transport.
They use the common explosions from the geyser to hide their thievery from everyone else. If one person finds out about the secret aqua city. Everyone it in will be toast.
You probably don’t want to spend EVEN MORE time building in the same place, though…
I have to appreciate your honesty. Not only with the other guys helpping you (their acting was fun to watch), but also with the other tricks you used to make the project. Other youtubers would just say I built all of this and it took me 300 hours, but not mention that they reused old designs and made heavy use of copy-paste and commands.
Bro steam punk is one of my favorite themes ever can’t believe you built this in my favorite game.
Lore Idea: The Steam Mafia are trying to steal all the energy sources. Add on to it however you like
Why not use red stone for making the engine move?? It would improve it right it could be learning red stone or smth vid
Ik its long paragraph but u grew to be my fav yt
Edit: I like Fortnite too
Lore Idea: Lately tensions have been rising within the city. Due to the Water District's illegal dealings, smuggling rings have popped up within and around the city. If the Steampunk District is like Amazon, then the sky pirate crews devastating the shipping boats are like porch pirates. It started out as petty theft but spiraled into large-scale operations plundering entire container ships worth of goods. The Mechanical District has been trying (and failing) to create robots to counteract these criminals but with many of the pirates being the Steampunk District's own citizens, many of their existing robots have had their secret faults exploited.
Meanwhile, the Water Mafia has been exploiting both sides for profit, selling crystals to fuel the smuggling rings on the side while selling even more water to the city to make up for lost goods. Will the Water District's flagrant greed be gotten away with? Or will the residents of the Steampunk District expose and put a stop to their illegal dealings? Or maybe, just maybe, the whole city will be going under before then.
This is super smart I like this idea
Oh wow, he gave it a heart. Guess he really does read these!
Lore idea: I really like the whole hidden gem selling mafia lore, and was thinking it would be really cool if you somehow connected all the districts and builds you have made with one secret mafia/powerful group of people that are all working together to consolidate and grow their power, and secretly control all the rest of the world. That way you could connect all the builds with a society that could be good or evil all at the center of how the entire world is functioning. Just a thought, and great vid as always!
What will be the ñame of the mafia I was thinking of something like the Steam mafia because of the District in one mafia but what do you think the ame of the mafia should be?
If you haven't already, you should consider adding cults and cops and all that sort of stuff haha. With a massive city and multiple factions, you may need some sort of faction that protects the city and prevents war, crime, and keeps everything in check and running smoothly.
I LOVE that unlike other builds you add a complete interior too, not just make an exterior and call it. The build is immersive and amazing! Love how it’s well thought out, designed, and executed. Super sick build
Lore idea:
Deep within the hollowed-out remains of a colossal giant lies the Bone Coven, a society of cannibalistic worshippers who revere the giant's skeleton as their god. They offer the bones of their deceased lovers and enemies as tribute, believing in the ancient power imbued within. Mastering necromancy, they raise an undead army from those who died within their domain, known as the Bone Guard. Adventurers are drawn to their dark secrets, but the Bone Coven remains vigilant, defending their way of life within the shadows of their skeletal deity.
And love your vids keep up the good work!
Another lore idea! The ships need an identification card or magic or something to start because the upperclass don't want the lower class people toe escape.
If you ever go back to the AI-inspired build, I have an idea for the fertile valley. Since the custom mob was a nymph, what if that played in the lore?
My idea was a group of refugees traveled into this enchanted forest seeking safety and seclusion. What they found was a tribe of nymphs who pensively let them live in their forest. One day, early on in the cohabitation of the forest, a bounty hunter who was a member of the refugees fell in love with one of the wood nymphs. Using the nymph's ability to move through plants that could be alive or dead, they could move through the walls of the houses to catch their targets. When tensions got high between the two groups the couple would mediate and were soon given the role of leadership. Now, it is customary for a couple to complete a mission (it can be in a different occupation but it's usually bounty hunting) before getting married.
In terms of build style, since the nymphs are one with nature all the plants have decided to grow themselves into homes for the people of the village. So treehouses that are made by the tree they sit in and so on. Similar to the Aeitheales from the Trial of Apollo books by Rick Riordan if you have read those but on a bigger scale. If you want, you can have some human housing be more molded compared to the all-natural nymph architecture for variety.
Shovel, you really blew me away this time, I will be honest, I didn't expect you to one up everything build, but you did! The cloud runner district is insane, and while I have not been watching for a while, I am now a loyal follower of every video that you post. I'm not sure what your next grand plan is, but I really enjoyed the Minecraft build update you did a month or so ago, perhaps you could add a desert, nomad land to your map. I also think it would be interesting to see another flea folk, who possibly use the magic gems that the water mafia is smuggling, perhaps the flea folk help in shipping/distributing the magic gems to suspicious buyers. Also, I just watched Good times with scar's new release of the Scarland book, and boy would I be excited to buy and see a book filled with your insane world. Keep building and thanks for starting my day off with your video.
I don’t usually pay attention to ads. Or lots of a video. But already seeing how much thoughtful work you put into even the starting phase of texturing? I’m invested. You’ve earned every bit of sponsorship you get ❤️
This build is absolutly insane! I have never seen something this detailed in all of my years of playing Mineraft. Well done!
Increadibly cool stuff. This has not only inspired me to take a more serious stab at building in minecraft, but also to do more detailed world building for my dnd world. Thank you!
Also I do hope that when the map is finished it becomes a Minecraft MMO. It would be amazing to see this world teeming with actual player life.
Keep up the good work! And do not worry too much about the upload schedule. You having the time after all is what lets us enjoy these amazing videos and increadible builds.
Thanks for the compliment! I’m glad you were motivated by these! Fun fact: I actually made a dnd campaign for this world years back. Always love to see a fellow DM
Looking at your builds makes me wish Minecraft was an MMO. This would legit make for an insane hub.
Next you should build an underground labrynth run by a secret society that connects to nearly all the cities in the map. The society could be made up of people with connections in high places, or spies set up all around the known world who do their best to prevent wars or save humanity in case something evil were come and... You know.
The guy who owned the tavern that you mentioned could be a member, or anyone else who seems like a cool guy.
The labrynth should be a confusing maze of tunnels, with hundreds of secret passageways leading to and from cities with entrances hidden in plain sight... or not.
The center of the labrynth could be deep underneath a picturesque ring of mountains with a lake in the center. However, the forests surrounding the area is said to be cursed, which is why nobody tries to go to the area, keeping the base well hidden. Not only that, but the mountains give them a military advantage in case anyone or anything tries to attack them from above.
The center of the labyrinth could be an underground city, with not a whole lot of people, but still a few main areas. It could for one, have a training camp. This camp is for spies, or Rangers as I might like to call them.
Rangers (idea from the book "Rangers Apprentice") would be extremely stealthy and skilled with bows/knife throwing. They could hide in plain sight, and are some of the most feared opponents in combat. Not because of their size or strength, but for their quick thinking and their mastery over their weapons.
The camp could extend above ground for target practice, or stealth training, or anything else the students needed to learn before being sent put on real missions.
Another area could be a library. The library could have all the stored knowledge from ancient times to today. This society, being ancient itself, has made sure to keep as many unique books or writing as possible that contain any sort of information they might use.
There could also be a council room, where meetings are held when needed.
Water for the people in the labrynth could be siphoned from the lake above. Food could be brought through the secret passageways. And if you want to make it more realistic, add air ducts to allow for oxygen to pass into the labyrinth so people dont suffocate.
Anyways, I dont know why, but I spent like an hour writing this nonsense so do what you will with it lol.
I love it! Thanks for taking the time to put in so much detail!
"In just a few hours, we have a lovely little sky village." A few hours?! That alone would take me three weeks to do. I know I've said it before, but I'll say it again: the hard work and incredible dedication to your craft blows my mind. It's what got me back into Minecraft earlier this year.
I love how there is so much backstory behind all of his builds.
"No, Shovel, don't, nooooo..."
Man, Mog rlly cares bout u
He sure does haha
Ok, I have idea.
Boat graveyard. It's a giant mound of uneven cliffs that spike up from the ground. Some ships are impaled on these cliffs, others sunken to the bottom of the sea and a few scattered around that are stable... ish. I HAVE LORE TOO!!
There's a small civilization of magical beings (Give them whatever characteristics you want) called Grogfins. My only request is that they hate the idea of other races entering their land. They are also highly trained and equipped in runes. A kind of magic that resides inside of the users' artistic ability. You need to be able to draw the runes to use them. You can also use runes on yourself for various things (to be figures out what those things are). The Grogfins use their runes in day to day life. The one thing they are most known for though is impaling ships with giant pointed cliffs that jag out from the ground. They do this by drawing runes on their arms. The cliffs that they were using at the time also have a carbon copy of the runes on them. I was thinking that the the Grogfins would use their runes to create cliffs that they would live in. A way to protect themselves from invaders as stories suggest that the closer you get to the runed cliffs the more likely you are to be impaled by stone.
This is also a ocean biome by the way.
I would be absolutely delighted if you decided to build my idea, and even more so if you wanted to reach out to me! You can simply use this idea as you wish but I will be using it in my own way for my creative pieces.
Thank you so much for reading!
Lore idea: what if there is a night market that travels on the back of a giant dragon that has shacks and stalls but a large house on the middle of the dragons back that has the owner of the dragon live in it. There is also a few airships that follow it maybe. And there could be a tavern or something. Edit: my Guinea pig just died and it would make me extremely happy if you added a small little gravestone for him so he’s immortalised if you build it. His name is Oreo
That’s actually a really neat idea! Like the saddle is a foundation of the market
@@shovel241 my thoughts exactly

Shovel: "The most iconic part of this faction is their use of Automatons."
My democratic flashbacks of The Creek kicking in:
if you haven't done it yet, you should do a scholar/scientific city. it could be more futuristic, with sprawling libraries and labs. it would have elements of the other cities to make it feel like home to the different types of people. there could be a huge community research library in the middle and lots of unis nearby. you could have different dorm buildings for the different cities, which would be a fun way to use some of the skills from other videos!
also an abandoned city. since a lot of the cities have been inspired by different energy sources and styles, it'd be cool if there was a creepy abandoned nuclear power city or something. it could be like green steampunk, with lots of vines snaking abandoned buildings because nothing can stop them growing. it could have buildings for less-than legal trades that have been refurbished and abandoned train lines that people who can't afford proper places in other cities. sometimes, in the train tunnels, you can hear ghost train horns whistling. it would also have a summer and winter district, if that makes sense. half the city could be regrown, and half could still be in a 'nuclear winter'. scientists from the scholar city could take samples to study. this is definitely not scientifically accurate but it could be cool ^^

Lore idea for a different builds
Nanoheim’s next clan that I would love to see is the shell clan. It’s on the back of a huge seat turtle, kind of like the lion turtles is ATLA. The main kingdom is settled between a coral reef and a lagoon, both are separated into two different sides. The coral reef section focuses on combat, weapons being forged from coral and other sharp objects, they ride dolphins into battle, because it sounds cool. The residents live under water in coral that grows in the reef. They pride themselves in combat and their vast network of travel. They travel through different bodies of water, popping up all over the place. Their skin is thicker so that they don’t get cuts and injuries from the sharp coral and weapons.
The lagoon side is more focused on being diplomatic and uses their vast network of teleportation to find out more about the world and how certain things work. They live above ground except for the royal family that lives in a massive underwater cave that glows. The lagoon side is also the money making side, offering goods like seaweed and other under water crops that they grow.
The terrain for both sides are pretty similar, flatter hills made of sand and other darker blocks, to mimic the shell of a sea turtle, the coral reef side is brighter with a lighter block palette and and massive body of water. The lagoon is, a lagoon and is submerged under water, the royal family lives in the deepest part of it though.
The coral reef is called Tsuren, based off of Tsunami because of their fierce strength. The lagoon side is called Aqualeon. They both specialize in water magic and animal communication. Sorry that this was super long
I also really wanted to see another clan of Nanoheim so I really love this idea
Does anyone else end up going back and re watching all the others? Shovel is my all time favourite videos to watch - not just Minecraft. For me can you please make a movie version (no editing- just one after the other!) LOVE this guy!❤❤❤
I know it’s just a game, but this is pure talent. People who haven’t played Minecraft just wouldn’t understand
Bro here's a suggestion:
Suggestion on a new build:
The Fortress of the Chrono Faction
Lore:The Fortress itself looks medevial but do not be fooled because inside the walls itself is mechanical gears.There are remnants of battles because of the numerous holes in the wall.
Description:They are a faction of the best thieves in the world.
They are also the mortal enemy of Brassholt as they've stolen forbidden weapons from them.
So the Brassholt's assasins focus is exterminating them and retrieve the stolen weapons.
The Brassholt isn't the only one they've robbed.They have robbed many resulting in getting many powerful weapons.
They haven't failed a single robbery making them one of the most feared faction in the world.
Hoping that I would be noticed
@@RusselTaduyo stand proud you where niticed
@@Shadowlordjacestand proud, you were strong
Stand proud, you were acknowledged
This was a TH-cam recommendation i did not anticipate and hooollyyy this is crazy. I am super impressed by the scale of this. Makes me feel like i would want to explore a real city like this. Man fantasy is much cooler than reality sometimes. Amazing work to all involved.
Lore ideas for 10 likes.😊😊😊
Can you please give us the book?
That would be cool
I've been playing minecraft basically since release and I'm a decent builder myself. I've tackled large builds like fantasy-mega-cathedrals and whatnot. Some friends of mine are even better builders so I've seen some really breath-taking builds. However in all those years I have never seen anything that combines this kind of scale with maximum detail quality. This is nuts - I love it.
0:13 was folding ideas?
anyone else wanna read the book that this world is based off?
Me
I've noticed you've been doing a couple steampunk builds, which is why I would love to see you create a solarpunk build because I've noticed you also do a lot of plants and greenery. So why not combined the two, I would love to see your take on it!

Tutorial 😂😂
World Idea: Wastonia Basically pronounced like War-stonia
War-Stonia has a huge army and trains 12-4
Their breaks are very much needed as their training is hardcore.
They drink tons of water for their sore muscles and enjoy a huge spa day.
However, in War-Stonia only the men fight. The women instead clean clothes, make food for the men, or replenish supplies.
Only under extreme circumstances do the women fight.
Men are only trained in combat and sword fighting.
The women are normally used as archers. When in huge wars the women are allowed to shoot from far range.
Their homes are basically like Viking homes and entire is Viking like.
They enjoy combat and other basic games.
They do however have a center where they enjoy arm wrestling. Tournaments are held every Sunday. Signs are placed all over the village.
There are also 3 main factions. #1 The LockLines (They supply Weapons) #2 Worzons (They basically rule the economy and hire people for certain jobs)
The final faction is the Sukashin Tribe They build defenses and homes for everybody. Basically the builders of the village. The locklines have a TON of blacksmiths and Suppliers. Every house must have atleast one anvil. These anvils are supplied by how long a person has worked. People with 1 or 2 anvils are not very respected. 3 or 4 are kind of respected. The people with 5+ anvils are respected by everyone as they enjoy gifts and donations from other blacksmiths. The Worzons Rule trade throughout the entire village and beyond. They split the money in between all three of the faction’s accordingly. Finally the sukashin faction mostly built up of woodworkers or stonecutters. They are very similar to the locklines with respect having to be earned through working.
However they are very simple minded and have an almost peaceful vibe to them.
You can find training centers everywhere but mostly in the main palace. The main palace is loaded with thousands of hay dummies that the warriors chop and slice. The women only train on sunday at 3 to 5 am as they must be warmed up to patrol the city as the men are at the arm wrestling competition.
Before war the warriors feast, dining tables that the king of the warriors gives out are placed in the middle of the faction. Sitting at this table is a huge honor and the villagers eat as much as they can to have energy for the war.
The palace has a gigantic throne that is 50x the size of an adult villagers. This is because the villagers belive has ancient giants as their gods. They enjoy praying to them as they belive praying to giving food on a little shrine protects them or powers them with strength coursing through their vains. They have many statues of the giant who where Viking like armor. They have huge clubs in their hands.
Hope this helped. Guys I’m not begging for likes but can people make this go popular/ noticeable so He can see this, and if you like what u read u can like the comment just to help shovel notice the comment!❤❤❤❤
19:55 I love the LAAT Gunship with the AT-TE
You are absolutely killing it! I hope you never lose your dedication to this project, Im stoked to see the finished result
Can't wait to see you go crazy in the next video, your work is fire🔥🔥🔥
This was soo cool!! A few ideas though:
1. Add the secret passageways to the shadow market from the lore.
2. Add an entrance for the mechs to the golem garage.
3. Add a shutdown/alert button for emergencies for lore if something happened with the factories.
man if you want to take a full year for making those, take it, you are probably the best builder ive ever seen, feeling sad for not making it quick its like feeling sad for not making a nuclear facility in 3 seconds, take your time man.
Hello Shovel, I am an avid fan of your videos and I wanted to help you in accordance with the lore and history of your intricate fantasy world. I have prepared a massive lore idea that might help you a lot in creating your world.
I have also been writing a giant fantasy world so I may or may not know how it feels to be faced with such a colossal task, so I am here to help.
Let's begin:
So Imagine something like an... Opposite dimension, what I mean is like a dimension not found in your world that is evil, and is a giant wasteland, something like an underworld but not really.
|Description|
•So here is my idea. A giant nether-like landscape where the ground is just a barren landscape of dark looking stone, a place of everlasting heat and darkness and evil, the waters are of nothing but blood and lava, I call it Malevoria or "Pit of Doom".
•This place is ruled by the evil god Vargoirn(god of terror) (Var-Goy-Rurn), he looks filfthy, a head of a demon with three eyes, the middle eye is white while the other two are red, he has four horns (you decide where to put them), a floating Upper Body (he has no lower body), he also has 6 arms, two of which are massive spiritual looking skeleton arms. His skin color is read and he is very buff, he also has two skeleton heads on his shoulders as just a fashion choice of his, he is also not wearing a shirt since... Well idk. Well everything else is up to you.
•He has a pet called Vainar, a wyvern with scales tougher than obsidian and fiery orange/red eyes that can burn anyone that looks directly unto it, he has two horns that have the color of a bone block and his tale can wrap around a building indicating his massive size.
•Malevoria is a seperate dimension located outside of Etheria which can only be accessed through rigorous rituals or places where even the gods fear to go to, or unknown places with eerie vibes or portals that were lost in time.
|Society|
•In Malevoria, there is a hierarchy based on how powerful you are(5), which are the ghouls, beasts, demons, reapers, and Destructors. The ghouls are just basic citizens of Malevoria, they consist of power stronger than ordinary groups of humans (about a group of 5-10) but they are not that strong in Malevoria. Beasts can destroy entire camps of people (about 15-30 people). Demons can destroy entire buildings of people (about 50-100 people). Reapers can destroy multiple buildings or even cities of people (500-2000 people). And Destructors, only consisting of 7 members can destroy about 5 nations max (idk anymore). And if you are a little confused, I meant by the amount they can destroy, they can do all those destruction each.
•The Destructors are quite literally, the right hand men of Vargoirn, they live in the castle of Vargoirn called The Twisted Crown(the castle is located in the highest peak called mount void), and they each represent a deadly sin (You can make their names or I can comment extra to write them). So the reapers, they live in manors and mansions up in the mountains. The demons live in middle class houses near the volcanos or halfway through mountains where the reapers live. Beasts live in small houses below the mountains and near Lava lakes. And finally, the ghouls live in caves, yeah, just in caves.
|Lore and History|
So the main part of the history is that in the days of creation, the god mightiest of them all Aiavan sought to enslave the gods for his own entertainment causing him to be basically ganged up on, and thrown in Malevoria along with his angel now turned ghoul Minions. He introduced evil to the hearts of men especially to the Alphas which caused them to Exterminate the Omegas. He also created the beasts of the land and introduced war to men. But his most evil deed is the introduction of dark magic, a magic never before seen in Etheria which destroyed the balance of magic due to its formidable power. Why hasn't dark magic been introduced yet you may ask? Well it is simple, the gods have agreed to not introduce this filfth to man and to keep it a secret for it will only cause war and despair and people will try to dominate each other.
Yeah, so that is it... Pls read and try to consider this, my head and hands hurt, I have been typing for 5 hours now, Welp, if I need to give more lore, I will be glad to.
Any chance you could make a quick like 3-4 min video explaining the lore of the world so far? I’m a new subscriber and I’m loving your vids so far.
Wow this is the first video I have seen for you and I must say the editing is amazing combined with the great commentating and the story you tell You really make this video feel alive. It is amazing to see how much time and effort is put into your video wich most definitely shows in the product you put out 🥰🥰
i love how almost everything in this build must have a purpose
I absolutely love builds with lores, it gives the build so much more meaning
The passion, the attention to detail, the lore? This is magnificent!
I think I just realised why I love this guy so much, he started this youtube channel the day I was born 😮. I was just checking his channel description and saw the exact day I was born and thought, what are the chances. Best surprise ever. No wonder I seem to find myself coming back to this channel once a week😂
When you’re done with the world you should make a video where you go through the story of the book with the location of the game.
U should make a cyberpunk city next where technologies have advanced past everyone in your past build and you should have the city contructing a giant passageway to the moon or somthing where they are moving that would be so cool
I didn't reslize how much i needed a calm but entertaining voice before now, holy shit.
17:12 shovel - that pretty good for a first time. Me - what do you mean shovel its amazing
that andesite design at 5:32 is so underrately amazing i want it in my next big builds. thats so cool.
You should totally make a server with these builds, and have it all based around the fantasy world!
I just had a random thought I don’t remember if you already did this but I think that you can have region specific foods or make the city’s have a type of food that they specialize in.
It's pretty cool that you used non metallic metal to shade it. A lot of the best miniature painters use nmm to great affect as metallic paints can be a bit one dimensional
I never saw a Minecraft video with such quality in all means of production. You and your company deserves severe recognition for this work! Awesome!
Congratulations!
Watching shovel's video over and over, i became better at making plans on drawings, details and color combination, I can't believe that shovel videos can actually affect my drawing skills
