The easy way to tell if it is fake is to remember that Silksong doesn't exist and we are slowly going insane.

I don't hate it, but the shades of red they chose are far too pink compared to redstone dust, and it looks too dim without the yellow highlights

I thought it looked really complex when I first saw it, but you pick it up quick. Essentially, you play poker hands and score chips (the games name for points). You score enough to beat a 'blind' (the games name for levels) and then move on to the next one. The real fun of the game comes from the jokers you can use, which can modify how your score is calculated, pay out some money to spend between levels, or offer some other utility. There are a few secondary systems to think about when playing, but it is best to figure those out while playing.

I love these episodes where Etho just experiments with a new feature. It's too bad not many of his ideas worked out, I feel like Minecraft's current handling of mob mounting is counteractive to what the game encourages, especially in this latest update.

Great episode, the pigman farm is really satisfying. I hope Etho does follow through with his idea at the end of the episode, some more maps or one-off ideas would be great to see.

I absolutely loved this episode, the planning and fallout of the octokill was fantastic. I am surprised how few people remembered/knew about King of the Ladder, though I guess it worked in Ethos favor.

Great wildcard this session, though I feel like Etho got one of the least exciting powers. This is the first time since Secret Life I've gone out of my way to watch other perspectives; I recommend Tango's for his episode long high speed chase and Gem's for some exclusive interactions.

I looked at the bottom left and now 'Jellyfish Jam' is stuck in my head.

It is really satisfying to see Etho in his element like this, with everyone going to him for help. I love how everyone donated redstone despite him not having any use for it. That reveal at the end that Bdubs took Skizz's diamonds cracked me up, too.

I'm a little concerned the charm of this series' gimmick will be lost over time, depending on the pace they update versions.

This was a great episode, perfect balance of building and redstone. Also, seeing that short clip of the old potion brewer from like 10 years ago really brought me back.

I never cared for armor trims and didn't get how some people would get attached to one design over another, but Etho finding that smiley face with a headband pattern finally made me understand.

He did pass one loyalty test: he'll do anything to stay in his fellow boat boy's good graces.
