Suggestion!! Why terraria is a streamers worst nightmare. The game is extremely dense on the first 3-5 hours and is best played with the game on one tab and the wiki on the other. Great game, fair price, very fun, but lacks accessibility.
I think its important to clarify that CaptainSparklez did NOT "retire", he has only retired MINECRAFT content from his MAIN channel, he is still streaming very regularly on twitch, uploading vods to CaptainSparklez2, and continues to make mostly non-minecraft related videos on his main channel
Fun Fact: There was an earlier (non-parody) song called "In Search of Diamonds" released in November 2010, which I believe is the absolute first Minecraft fan song. | My first Minecraft song was "It's Herobrine!" by BLAH BLAH BLAH Gaming. It's impressive to remember that Jordan animated both TNT and Revenge (with help). I believe he also created the note block instrumental for TNT. One has to commend his effort. I think we all miss the 2011-2014 "golden age" of Minecraft content and parodies, (before they all got copyrighted to oblivion and people stopped making them). I think Jordan is to thank for that. I really wish I'd tried to make one back in the day.
If anything, I think this exact same video can be applied to DanTDM. He started back in the OG days, raised a generation, started a family of his own, still makes videos to this day with each one netting 1M+ views. Definitely another one of the Minecraft OG’s who survived the downfall.
Meanwhile Direwolf20 has been doing regular game content update at a steady pace for 13 years, keeping a stable community of around 515K subs there for him, streaming occasionally as well. To be fair, Direwolf20 does Modded Minecraft series, and is on Season 14 of his Modded Let's Plays.
Wow I hadn't realised Direwolf20 still uploaded. I watched his ComputerCraft tutorial a few years back and thought he was just another youtuber that made content around the 1.7.10 era and then stopped.

This was a great video... I started playing Minecraft in 2010 myself so I was pretty much there for all of Captainsparklez influence - its fair to say though that he's not retired from the minecraft scene, he streams most days on his Twitch channel, often including Minecraft content and those streams get edited down and posted on his "Captainsparklez 2" youtube channel (which just itself recently hit a million subs) pretty much daily. So its fair to say he's still relatively popular, he's just changed up the way he does his content.
Thank you for making this video. All these years, I've been listening to his 3 most popular songs without knowing who he was, and now I wish I was with him on his journey.
We going back in the mine got are pickaxe from side to side side to sideeee, creeper all man, we gonna go back in the mines got our pickaxe from side to side side to side, that song is amazing.
Dude I have been interacting with his stuff since like 2014, he has genuinely affected the way I have grown up into the person I am today. Such a cool content creator, he deserves to be the one that has lasted through all this time. I remember when Minecraft had its downtrend and he started all his different channels but still stuck with Minecraft. Honestly, his main channel stopping with Minecraft content doesn't bother me that much either, because I mainly watched the uncut vods anyway.
Antvenom has been my favorite Minecraft TH-camr since I was like 9 because of that video. His newer videos though are actually much better than his old ones in my opinion. It was easy to stick with him because he evolved his content as his audience grew up.
5:50 Don't worry, you're not the only one out there that sometimes can't pronounce things that should be easy to pronounce, happens to me all the time XD
Off topic, but I wanted to recommend another high-content open world survival game. On the scale of content to no content, and less graphics to more graphics, this game is near the top, Terraria is in the middle, and Minecraft is at the bottom. It’s called Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead, and is a free game that just blows practically every other game in existence (minus Dwarf Fortress and NetHack) out of the water in terms of sheer content. It would be really fun to watch a professional TH-camr react to the game at first, and find out how to play in real time. And there… is really no way to spoil much because there’s *too much*, and not that many people know all that much about the game. Anyways, I would highly recommend it!
2:38 I don't exactly remember the context, but I think it was something along the lines of the video getting copyright striked for a while and then brought back or something that caused this drop
Probably that yeah, wouldn't be surprised. He did struggle with his early music videos because they were parodies, so they were basically at the mercy of the original song's copyrights
Man, why did people dislike Minecraft Story Mode so much back then? It's way better then what we will probably have soon in the Minecraft movie, story wise.
I don’t think Minecraft 1.10 was the absolute worst update for the game. Sure, it had barely anything but I think it would go more to 1.9 due to how much controversy there was and how many people liked the new system and the old combat system. Minecraft 1.10 would be forgotten tbh.
Sometimes I like a video in the middle and then while watching I forget that I did that. And I try to like it again. But notice I already did. Basically trying to say I wish I could like this more than once
I'm gonna say a minecraft story mode spoiler if anyone cares. And the fact that captainsparklez was the first to die in the white pumpkin's manor (whatever it was called) is halariously ironic.
I don't plan to make a vid on him anytime soon, I'm not comfortable with making a monetized video essay talking about him, I'd feel like I'm milking his passing
You know you should do a part two to this video about the tragic story of the creeper because if you think about it the creeper was the one who did this and now I want to know the creeper Story how how CaptainSparklez and his hatred and revenge seeking against it made an entire Empire solely against him and the hatred of that creeper you never know what is story really was for all we know we could be techno blade because creepers are of pigs or maybe the pig from Minecraft story mode you never know but he was out there in this story and the story needs to continue hopefully we can see the story of the creeper I know it will be sad though that things for sure also it with 100% be like an anime

yesser! goated!

If I remember correctly he was also in the first Minecraft hunger game. I think he would have won if he didn't lose to Antvenom.

Erm stampy and dantdm and Grian and Mumbo Jumbo are all people who haven’t fallen off
