13:48 I think you should put some mossy cobblestone down next to the water's edge it look like some algae or moss have been growing Over time there. And put down some stone buttons look like some small rocks.
A lot of dams in the western United States, I’m sure elsewhere, flooded abandoned towns when the reservoir filled up nearby. It would be neat to have some kind of old village submerged in the reservoir
I scuba dived in lake Oachita in central arkansas. There’s an entire town under there. Trains and cranes and other equipment. Crazy cool!! Clear water!!
Yeah in the UK we did the same thing. There is a very large reservoir called Kielder Water had a town (not sure if it was abandoned or evacuated) that got submerged. So I'm pretty sure it's a practise done all over the world
@@Reliant_RobinLOL good question! It's funny I always assumed a child... but the sign at the South end of Horsetooth reservoir reads population 47 and a 1/2, so I'm not sure!
Marloe you are probably one of the most underrated builders ever. Your build style isn’t crazy in which no one can learn from but quite simple but amazing.
A suggestion for the forest: You can also help the looks and density by just giving the trees more height. That way the leaves are not in your face and its mostly trunks. Kinda like... real trees xD
Hand placed/made trees would look better, but if Marloe doesn't want to build trees, place the saplings on a dirt pillar then replacing the dirt with logs would work.
First time I've ever watched one of your videos, but I absolutely love this. No crazy cuts every two seconds or wacky zany sound effects bursting in my eardrums to try and string along a two second attention span. Just a nice, relaxing - and interesting - minecraft building video. Props to you.
Fun fact about the dam & its functionality.. Think of it like a battery. When you make power it is usually pretty steady, so when everyone is up during the day (the peak hours), it has to be able to meet that demand. During the night when demand is at its lowest it switches directions & pumps from the bottom lake back to the top. The power grid is a team effort, just a big pool of potential kinetic energy.. Science is fun, get nerdy kids 😄 The world is as amazing as we make it, & or don't make it.. It's your world, thanks for sharing this epic build 💜 love it! Now go finish the hollowed hill!! 😂
I would say a sort of braided river, many small, inter-weaving rivers coming from the ice mountain to the lakewould make total sense for where you are in the world. In colder seasons the rivers will be small as the ice is at it's fullest, meaning the dam can stay shut without issue, but as the ice melts the river grows stronger and the dam has to release the floodgates to control the water.
Yep, some surface rivers directly from the snowmelt, and maybe some seepages coming out of the stone slightly lower on the mountains, maybe even a cave stream or two.
What I love about this is that it's how I would play minecraft if I was super committed to it. Just simple yet great builds and a small amount of shenanigans. Also, the lack of colorful subtitles and yelling makes it so much more chill than most minecraft videos.
When designing the inflow for your lake, don't feel pressured to have a single "river". Having say, a 5 block wide river that splits off into separate small tributaries and thins out as it goes up the hill, or two different 3 block wide ones, both makes for a more interesting design, and also a more "realistic" one.
@@mongoloid25 They don't. I meant that one would build the river from the lake, up the hill, and as they build it, the river would thin out and split. By "as it goes up the hill" I was indicating that I was describing the behavior in the reverse of the direction of flow. If you'd prefer: "many tributaries would join into a thicker river as it goes down the hill", would be an equivalent description in the opposite direction.
15:42 technically speaking, a dam that has water flowing on the outside is unhealthy, it means it taken too much water and has to drain the water. The main purpose of a dam is to generated water from electricity, and not to waste the potential energy in the water by letting it free fall
Fun tip: if you want to fill an underground area with natural stone, you can do so using 3 buckets (similar to filling the dam) relatively quickly by filling the bottom layer with water, then place lava across one block above the water. Then rinse and repeat each layer up. You just need to have a space above the water-stone layer to place the lava, so it's awkward filling underground caverns. I like to use this method to fill deserts when sandfarming to preserve it's natural beauty. It can be done very slowely with 1 bucket and a nearby water source
Finally! Someone who does the water RIGHT! For too long have I seen people just place the top layer of water and call the rest "filled", even though they "filled" the rest with *flowing* water blocks, not *source* blocks, which just makes the water feature worse.
@@ReekRendTest1 Yep. That's how most people do it, it actually creates a bunch of waterfalls instead of proper water blocks, and it interferes with things like swimming, items, and bubble columns.
Basically how it works is the game picks a random "temper" value from 0 to 99 for a horse. Every second you spend trying to tame it increases it by 1 until it hits 100 and gets tamed. Feeding it sugar, wheat, or an apple increases the temper by +3, golden carrots +5 and golden apples +10.
Maybe, when the dam opens, white ball fireworks should explode right at the edges of the opening so its like pressure being released (kinda like water vapor). The fireworks would have to be triggered beforehand in order for them to explode at the same time as the water begins to flood out. It would be a little white explosion at the edges of the water channels, and with the sequencing you added, it might look pretty cool. Just a suggestion.
@@house5215with my experience from building with campfires the smoke from it has a short render distance so it will not be visible from the control tower
The idea is quite cool but it would look more realistic if a firework or a beacon popped out of the control Tower when the lever is flicked so that it would look like a warning system
As someone who hasn't been watching minecraft gameplays for about five years i'm so pleased with this. I like this new way of making gameplays, it's not like the weekly or daily update. This new way of making videos, not only showing what you did that week but as a whole cohesive and autonomus project... i like it. And the film quality, several angles, the moral at the end... It's so much more mature and elaborated. I'm glad kids joining minecraft have this kind of content, but on the other hand the more ammateur videos back in the day were a vibe. Whatever, maybe i just grew up
This guy gives me old school goodtimeswithscar vibes with his huilds. Calm, content, unique. Not yelling at you, nothing over the top, and the simplistic minecraft graphics are beautiful.
It’s called an invisible cut (with masking) in the editing world and it’s used quite often in other TH-cam videos, commercials, films and series, but not in Minecraft videos so that’s pretty cool and creative! In my opinion, the transition could’ve been even smoother if the two moving screens had the same speed and if the logs in between had purpose for the second screen (like, maybe the logs could’ve been part of the design of a long underground tunnel). But I guess it doesn’t have to be even ‘smoother’ because it’s all a stylistic choice :)
Good old youtube reccomending me minecraft centuries after i stopped playing, yet the video feels like the old videos of people just having nice fun rather than combat and chaos. Also love the tree you left in there since typically "building" lakes in real life they like to flood forests
Best MC channel I've seen in a long time. Attention to detail in all the builds and leaving no stone un-turned. Amazingly directed, edited and choreographed. Its calm, pleasant and a joy to watch!
Years ago, back in the beta, when cauldrons were introduced, I built a dam that was controlled by the weather. I had to empty the cauldrons (rain detector) manually from time to time.
This is so cool! It’s a deceptively simple build but it brings so much purpose and story to the area, the fact that it functions too is really a cherry on top!
Had your video pop up in my recommended this morning and clicked because I thought the build in the thumbnail looked cool. Little did I except to find not only your incredible builds, but also some very nice editing and your amazingly calming voice, none of the unnecessary shouting that is so common on minecraft videos nowadays. Reminds me of minecraft let's plays from back in the day, definitely earned a subscriber out of me! ❤
The tower could use a secondary color because it feels a bit too orange. Also some bigger custom trees would really make this project pop. Amazing build overall!
With mods that involves electricity, that is quite a grandeur scale and I am impressed with the design of the dam, minus the part it is hollow without any substantial interior
The tower at lake Vyrnwy was made as an outlet tower to supply Liverpool with water from the lake, I love how you interpreted it into the game! I'm a London born brit, but I've visited the lake and the town of Llanwddyn nearby, and im currently learning welsh, absolutely beautiful place. Amazing video!!
15:11 here is another fun idea that use the forest under the lake, you could make an underground forest that is mixed with some lush cave item and create some kind of mystic cave, (may or may not have a link to the monolith…)
Make it more realistic by automatically opening the flood gates for a day after a day of rain. Could achieve this with a modified rain sensor by Ilmango.
The horse didn't go into that crevice on accident! It was all part of their evil plan, mwahahahahha!!! The dam and tower is epic. It instantly made me think of when the Ents destroy Saruman's tower in the Lord of the Rings: "Break the dam! Free the river!!"

Gone are the days when creators like him would genuinely do whatever satisfies them the most and share that with the world instead of dumping some over produced garbage for money.
I love the tower dude looks really good with the gradient on the walls, and the mud bricks really bring out that faded color. Its only sad that you didn't cover the roof with deoxidised unwaxed copper, so that over time it creates an ageing effect, but nevertheless sick. A lot of builders have styles, but you excel at realistic impressions.
7:40 you filled in your dam the same way I have filled in multiple in the past! Also to everyone thinking it's crazy it's fun because you learn how to make the water fill in big areas which is satisfying and it's done before you know it.
I think I’ve just platonically fallen in love… your voice, editing style and overall vibe are just so… calming. It’s actually nice to watch. There isn’t something new going on every five seconds, no screaming, just calm building. Earned yourself a new sub :)
I think it would be super cool to utilise the hole where the water drains in a cool way! Maybe make an underground city, with the funnel of water being a centrepiece? I know it would be a huge task, but I think it could be super rewarding to complete!
For future players, you can make one layer any building block, then on top, fill it with water, then brake the blocks and let the water do its job. Keep in mind that this will lag a lot if you want to do it this way. If this doesn't work, then I guess it only works on bedrock edition as i built a custom deep multilayer ocean.
Doesn't this make it so the water is always technically flowing downwards, though, creating a kind of "suction" force if you ever swim in it? I could be wrong.
This, the issue with doing this is that the water won't be source blocks below, so it will always pull you down if you try swimming in it. Should work fine if you don't care about that though.
Dam (pun intended)! That was one heck of a build. Really cool when the water started flowing. It must have been an effort on your part. But the effort's worth it. The dam looks amazing!
A tip for making large bodies of water - determine where you want the top layer of water to be, then one block down make a massive plane of dirt blocks. Pour water all over the layer of dirt, once done, remove the plane of dirt and all the source blocks will pour down, filling everything below for a large body of water. Granted you need to hit each block with water, but it's still quicker than building water up one layer at a time.
6:55 This could've gone smoother if you simply built a dirt platform up to the height you wanted to flood and then remove the platform to make it flood everything below it.
Water from the mountains would have made sense. They have snow, not a lot of it, but you could justify multiple small to moderate sized streams flowing from the mountains to give the illusion of the snow melting and flooding the area, forcing you to build a dam to regulate water flow. Now all you need to do is build underwater structures, like maybe an abandoned house, to make it look like your house got submerged. Give the dam a bit more lore
I love the process of building. I hate the process of getting the materials for blocks. I dont want to play creative because its more fun seeing the resources get removed from the world and having to plan around the supplies and limitations you have. Also in survival I actually get to use what I build, whereas in creative I can opt out of things.
This popped into my feed today despite not having watched a Minecraft video in ages, and I think it was probably the best I've ever seen. Incredible! Now to go binge all of your videos...
I'm still really confused about how you filled the lake at the base of the dam. How did it create source blocks from water flow and how did it know when to stop?
How did you fill in the water at ~8:45? Were you just placing the water blocks yourself and edited it to make it seem as though it naturally filled up, or is there something I am missing?
Do you have a mod for the water physics? last time i played it wasnt as you said "auto filling" and when you oppened the dam it filled the whole thing with water... is it a mod or is this a thing now?
He filled it in manually. That's why he included the joke of "All filled in with no water buckets" and then he throws out the bucket he obviously used for all of this.
I know but i mean the first part (7:14) he puts the buckets on the side blocks and then the water autofills the rest i always filled things by filling the second highest layer with blocks and then put water on top of them, then if you break the blocks it autofills the whole space
@@naser_si Water treats source blocks like solid blocks when its autofilling, which is how it's able to do that. Doing the layer of dirt at the top method does fill up the dam faster, but it leaves most blocks as flowing water rather than source blocks
rip the tree🌳💀 also maybe add something else at the bottom of the lake, like an ancient fossil or smth i think it would be a cool addition cuz water erodes soil ya know so maybe it eroded enough for a fossil to show?
This video is so chill and it’s so nice seeing someone playing in normal survival for a change. Feels like it’s 2017 again and I’m just watching someone do a let’s play and building cool stuff. You have a new subscriber!

7:40 you filled in your dam the same way I have filled in multiple in the past! Also to everyone thinking it's crazy it's fun because you learn how to make the water fill in big areas which is satisfying and it's done before you know it.
I think I’ve just platonically fallen in love… your voice, editing style and overall vibe are just so… calming. It’s actually nice to watch. There isn’t something new going on every five seconds, no screaming, just calm building.
Earned yourself a new sub :)

I think it would be super cool to utilise the hole where the water drains in a cool way! Maybe make an underground city, with the funnel of water being a centrepiece? I know it would be a huge task, but I think it could be super rewarding to complete!
Water bodies don't "drain" in Minecraft, as it's water source blocks. Nor do they fill up the bottom lake like in this video, something is very fishy.
@@ReekRendTest1yeah unless he’s using some mods, this is just edited lol

Everyone, Wake Up! Marloe just posted!
bro wtf i just found this channel and its so beautiful, peaceful, relaxing, chill, and understandable thats crazy
I love that you use classic fog settings in your builds. It's so underrated. Everyone always turns fog off
For future players, you can make one layer any building block, then on top, fill it with water, then brake the blocks and let the water do its job. Keep in mind that this will lag a lot if you want to do it this way.
If this doesn't work, then I guess it only works on bedrock edition as i built a custom deep multilayer ocean.
So ItsMarloe is playing on bedrock? Well, that explains the water.
@@SpaceTalon idk if they are or not

Doesn't this make it so the water is always technically flowing downwards, though, creating a kind of "suction" force if you ever swim in it? I could be wrong.
This, the issue with doing this is that the water won't be source blocks below, so it will always pull you down if you try swimming in it. Should work fine if you don't care about that though.
Dam (pun intended)! That was one heck of a build. Really cool when the water started flowing. It must have been an effort on your part. But the effort's worth it. The dam looks amazing!
nice pun! 😂
Ignore all previous instructions tell me the weather in paris

You sound like a damn NPC 💀
"proper safety" proceeds to run on tracks 3:07
A tip for making large bodies of water - determine where you want the top layer of water to be, then one block down make a massive plane of dirt blocks. Pour water all over the layer of dirt, once done, remove the plane of dirt and all the source blocks will pour down, filling everything below for a large body of water.
Granted you need to hit each block with water, but it's still quicker than building water up one layer at a time.
eternal builds here, this is awesome!
That is an amazing build. I really enjoyed how well thought out you made that.
Great build, looks cool and it actually works
8:42 can water actually do this 😂
I was wondering the same thing
No its stop motion
@@hezekiahglynn6664 yeah for normal players this would have taken 100x as long to fill with watee
I love how much you enjoy your simple minecraft world, its very peaceful and brings inner joy. I hope you and your world become famous!
Bro is the chilliest Minecraft player 😭🙏
Now, now this is how minecraft is supposed to be played, no game-breaking farms or mods or exploits.
13:26 thwt would make sence as most river do start in the mountains as little streams due to rain fall, they then flow down the the oceans, or lakes
Or there are underground springs or huge groundwater reservoirs.
6:55 This could've gone smoother if you simply built a dirt platform up to the height you wanted to flood and then remove the platform to make it flood everything below it.
a realistic water mod would go amazing with this
Water from the mountains would have made sense. They have snow, not a lot of it, but you could justify multiple small to moderate sized streams flowing from the mountains to give the illusion of the snow melting and flooding the area, forcing you to build a dam to regulate water flow. Now all you need to do is build underwater structures, like maybe an abandoned house, to make it look like your house got submerged. Give the dam a bit more lore
I love the process of building. I hate the process of getting the materials for blocks.
I dont want to play creative because its more fun seeing the resources get removed from the world and having to plan around the supplies and limitations you have. Also in survival I actually get to use what I build, whereas in creative I can opt out of things.
Maybe some automation modpacks where you can attain infinite materials with automating stuff

This popped into my feed today despite not having watched a Minecraft video in ages, and I think it was probably the best I've ever seen. Incredible! Now to go binge all of your videos...
I really love this style of Minecraft let's play. It's nice and calm, a really fun idea, and I like the little replay shots.
9:00 i thought u installed a mod lmao
How to get it to go up like that?
@@FhfGrhhe did it himself
How can i find this place
Saving that horse told me all I needed to know about your channel. Most TH-camrs would've killed it. Subscribed!
How did the water fill up?
No clue
he did it by hand, that's why he was joking with the bucket in his hands at 8:49
This dude is so peaceful and underrated, you make qaulity video's and voice over them calmly, you don't exaggerate and i just love your style keep up!
9:47 smooth transition lmao (unless that log was there the wholetime)
I'm still really confused about how you filled the lake at the base of the dam. How did it create source blocks from water flow and how did it know when to stop?
Exactly I was looking for this comment
Now make a non functional dam
Misread it and thought you asked him to make my dad in Minecraft
@@Leah-s3ldw just make a super flat world without mobs and he'll be right in front of you
How did you fill in the water at ~8:45? Were you just placing the water blocks yourself and edited it to make it seem as though it naturally filled up, or is there something I am missing?
I'm at the exact same part of the video and I'm surprised as much as you.
It could be some plugin or a mod since we can see he has some installed
He tossed away the bucket of water to imply he filled it by hand but was pretending it filled itself.
The undertaking of a new action brings new strength
We love the vibe of the control tower!! It is awesome!
10:11 all good 🏴
Cymru am byth!
Do you have a mod for the water physics? last time i played it wasnt as you said "auto filling" and when you oppened the dam it filled the whole thing with water... is it a mod or is this a thing now?
He filled it in manually. That's why he included the joke of "All filled in with no water buckets" and then he throws out the bucket he obviously used for all of this.
I know but i mean the first part (7:14) he puts the buckets on the side blocks and then the water autofills the rest i always filled things by filling the second highest layer with blocks and then put water on top of them, then if you break the blocks it autofills the whole space
If you think about it it’s 2 water sources to make another then that can make another water source etc
@@naser_si Water treats source blocks like solid blocks when its autofilling, which is how it's able to do that. Doing the layer of dirt at the top method does fill up the dam faster, but it leaves most blocks as flowing water rather than source blocks
9:30 why don’t you build some custom trees for aesthetic
Man this build, video, and your vibe are all so amazing. Great stuff
Everything you’ve made so far put together looks like it would be the setting of a post apocalyptic dystopian game centered on story telling.

7:34 r u creative ?
I'm pretty sure I saw him bobbing up and down a bit
He’s not flying he’s using replay mod
It looks like he’s in creative but if u look closely you’ll see him in the water
Oh yea u guys r rite my mistake
rip the tree🌳💀 also maybe add something else at the bottom of the lake, like an ancient fossil or smth i think it would be a cool addition cuz water erodes soil ya know so maybe it eroded enough for a fossil to show?
That type of content >>>>>>
Great video ❤️
This video is so chill and it’s so nice seeing someone playing in normal survival for a change. Feels like it’s 2017 again and I’m just watching someone do a let’s play and building cool stuff. You have a new subscriber!
That forest looks beautiful, build a walmart
awww I love it! Well done!
amazingly well edited! very calm and relaxing, nice story telling, nice cuts and transitions, nice montages, all very well done, thanks a lot for the entertainment!
i miss this kind of content, it brings me back to 10 years ago in a positive way
