 Hey there, friends! How's it going? My name is Kevin and I just wanted to quickly flex on you. Sinehizer gave me this new headset, which I really, really like. Anyway, onto the video. No, they also sent me a second one, which they said I can give away, so I'm happy out. It's the GSP600. This isn't a sponsored thing or anything. They were literally just like, here take it, give it away. So GSP600 and they sent me a GSX1200 Pro as well, mix them. So I'm gonna give them away to one of you, I guess. So if you're interested in winning both of these together, please leave a like and a comment on the video. And also, if you want to win them, please include some of your socials, whether it be Twitter or Instagram, somewhere I can contact you if you win. And yeah, I apologize about the double intro, but please enjoy the video. Hey there, friends! How's it going? My name is Kevin. Thank you very much for joining me on this journey. We're about to embark on because we are about to play a hardcore save on Minecraft. You may notice it looks a little bit different. I'm playing with the new RTX mode, which just looks insane. This isn't the best example when you go into caves and stuff. It looks crazy. And so I hope it doesn't bother you. I know some people can be a bit annoyed if you got texture packs and whatnot and it's not the default look. But please give it a shot because I'm pretty excited to try it and I just really hope it doesn't bother you. I'm playing on the Windows 10 version. It isn't beta. I can't get rid of the text on the top, unfortunately, as far as I know. And also, there's no hard core mode. So I'm playing it on hard difficulty and when we die, we die. That's the end of the world. I'm praying we don't die immediately. That is my worst fear that we die on one episode. But we're gonna get started. It's just... That doesn't sound good. I already fear for my life. Alright, we're off to a good start. I stole a torch. I happened to just spawn at this village, so I was pretty happy with my first world. I don't know if that's rare, but it seems like it is. I'm probably just gonna come and hear one of their homes, to be honest. Look at that food and everything. I'm off to a fantastic start. I'm so excited to show you guys like in caves and stuff, but I just gotta gather some basic supplies. Look at this. They've got a lovely farm and everything set up for me. Don't worry, I'll harvest it for you. What do you mean? Am I gonna share around the wheat? You some sort of communist buddy? He's just like, but I planted it. Alright, this guy has a crafting bench. Wait, what the hell did I just do? I don't know. Alright, he's a crafting bench. I'll just take, you know what? I may as well take a tree. I was about to say I'm just gonna take a chunk out of his house to make some tools. Sorry about the damage to your house. I had to make a shovel. It's like collapsing. Alright, the sun looks like it's directly over me, so I have some time. I want to try and gather some tools and immediately start mining because I briefly looked into one of the tunnels last night when I was setting this up and it looked insane. God damn your house is obnoxious with this texture pack on. How did you get planning permission for that? We're knocking that fucking house anyway. I think I'm gonna take this house. It has a double bed. I don't think I'll ever have roommates, but you know what? One can dream. It's weird because I'm almost getting a sense of nostalgia even though I've never used a pack like this. It just reminds me of using like old school texture packs and stuff like that to try and get the game looking all epic. Sorry, neighbor. I'm gonna need your door. I don't have one. I'm gonna take this too. Thank you very much. Okay, I got myself a door. I actually don't feel super safe in this village, to be honest with you. God, how does that person sleep? Their houses lit up like the Fourth of July. Oh Jesus Christ, my neighbor's house was like that at night too. What is wrong with you people? The only good thing about it is it's really easy to find my house now and his place lights up the entire area. Because at night I've noticed with these shaders it gets very, very dark. But look how warm my house looks. Fantastic. Oh no, there are monsters nearby. I don't like this. It's fucking dark and you know what? I'll go sleep in someone else's house. They're like, what are you doing here? I heard a monster. Wait, what the shit? He has diamond. Is that normal? I swear to God, I didn't put that in there. That's gonna look so stupid. It's like, oh my God you guys, I did some building like off video and like I just completed this entire castle and found 194 diamonds. But I didn't know that was possible. I really didn't. People aren't gonna believe me. I'm even not believing me. I don't understand how that happened. I've never found diamond in a village before. Sorry buddy, no solicitation. I don't care what you're here to spread, whether it be the word of the Lord or just your spider disease. Alright, I'm immediately just building a pick. I mean, what more can I want? That is amazing. I'm so happy. I was like, now I can go get obsidian and I was like, wait, I do not want to go to the nether. If I die, I'm dead. And by that, I mean if I die in game, I die in real life. There's someone with a gun right behind that green screen. Okay, I think I'm gonna build my own house like over here somewhere. But I want to build a castle. That's what I want to do. I want to build like a big perimeter wall. I want to make it as safe as possible. So I'm gonna try and start digging down. I might do a bit of strip mining. You know, I won't do- I won't show you much of it. I'll just keep going straight with my diamond pick. Try and find some more diamonds and just a ton of cobble to make a big wall. We're gonna have a fort. Fort Turk, it will be called. Oh my God, there's a beehive there. But I'm afraid to go near it because, you know, the whole death thing. The problem is, I really need coal. Like really badly. I have none. Ah, there we go. There's some coal. I can't see anything. I'm really scared because even if I die now, I go, ha, that's just my luck. And we probably start again because it's right at the start. But like, I've got diamond somehow. Okay, okay, we got even more coal. This is fantastic. This is going great. Which makes me uneasy. I don't like when things go too well. I'm not used to it. Okay, I think this is a good place to dig. We're just gonna start digging down and see what we can do. Oh no, I can't get coordinates in this version. Or at least I don't know how. Oh no, how do I play without being able to get coordinates? Oh, what is that? Is that iron? I feel like I'm learning the whole game again. I'm getting very excited here. Wait, is that how cobble looks? Oh, that's actually not too bad. Yeah, I can build a castle out of that. It'll look like a proper castle. If there's one thing the Irish know about its castles, we have a lot of them. It always amazes me when someone from another country visits and they're like amazed by a castle. I'm like, this castle is kind of shit, to be honest with you. I see castles way better than this. Mmm, stolen apples. For some reason, they taste way better when they're stolen. Okay, I think we found a danger zone. And I don't really have enough torches, but I just realized mid-sentence that I can get this and make torches. Oh, God, I'm a genius. I am truly hardcore. I'm really freaking scared. Just so you're aware. Just so you know the last statement was not true at all. I lied to you to impress you and I hope it worked. Have you liked the video yet? Oh, I forgot I stole some iron too. God, I stole a lot of good shit. Oh, God, I'm a little bit fucking scared, to be honest with you. I know I've already said it, but like really to get the point across. Oh, a name tag! I feel like this is the luckiest world I've ever gotten, which means I'm probably gonna die any second now. This is why I'm so scared. Wait, where is this going? What the hell is going on? It's just like I found a village that had diamond in it. I immediately find a mineshaft, which I'm getting cool shit out of. I don't know. It feels too good to be true. And in my experience, if something is too good to be true, you're about to get hit by a car. As weird as it sounds, it's making me a bit nervous that I'm not getting attacked as well. Like I'm expecting something to jump out on me. What the hell is that? Is that a slime? Or is that just like a zombie getting off down here? Come out, you sick bastard. You don't deserve to live anymore. What, you got a cobble fetish? I thought I was the only one. What is a slime? What the shit? I didn't even know they could spawn in places like this. Is this a good idea? I kind of regret everything. Immediately! Oh Jesus! I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Oh my God. Why was I so confident? Oh sweet Jesus. Oh God. I really want the slime though. I think you can make like leads and stuff. And for some reason, I know I'll need these. When I was playing in a normal mode, I know I was looking for some at some stage. I think pistons, which would be cool. Sticky pistons. And leads. I'm wondering if slimes are more common in Windows mode or something. Cause I like never find them in the Java edition. Again, it could just be extremely lucky. Like I'm starting to think this world is just blessed. Which is weird cause I'm so used to getting cursed things. Or at least blursed. Oh more bread. And an enchanted book. My inventory's full. I'm getting a little bit scared. 31 iron ore. That's good, that's good. A spider up here though. That not good. Oh God, he's a poison spider. He's poison. Can I run away? Oh God, I don't think I can run away. Where did I come in from? Oh sweet Jesus. Oh God, I'm running away. Alright, follow the torches. That has to lead me out of here. I think I should come back and explore here when I have better armor or something. There's too much at risk right now. All I want is cobble for now. I should just gather cobble and I'll be back with you in a moment. Unless something exciting or scary happens. Oh no, something exciting slash scary. But mainly scary is happening. Okay, that's just lava. Oh Jesus. Oh no, I don't like this. Do I have any iron? Can I make a bucket? I feel like this would be worth taking. God, that looks cool though. That looks so freaking cool. Alright, there we go. I got the lava. I gotta be careful with that. That could be how this all ends. I could easily kill myself. Oh God. It's just a bat. I'm so on edge. This is so fun though. I don't know. It feels really fucking intense. Cause I know I could die at any second and lose everything. And also it's like, it feels different with the RTX on cause like all the shadows and stuff like that are spooking me. Someone right there. I'm out of here. I think I have enough for now. I gotta get out of here and set up a little base and get some armor on and stuff before I risk my life too many times. God, I went a long way. I actually did mine all this. I didn't go, oh, while you were gone, I gathered 300 stone. I actually dug it up. You know what that is folks? Integrity. Alright, I'm not like those other Minecraft YouTubers. Alright, I think I'm gonna build my castle here. I think it's a nice open space that I can just start building a wall. I don't know how big I can actually make the bloody thing problem. I also have no idea how to stop spiders getting in. That's a big issue. Oh, well, that's unsatisfying. Okay, we've got some walls up. I think I'd like to have little towers in each corner and I'd like to have, you know, the wall. You know, the castle wall. I'm very good at words, which is why I speak for a living. Okay, I don't know how to use this enchanted book so I'm putting that away. Okay, we're gonna put some lava in there. Oh, that's a nice light. I just want to be able to get rid of stuff and the inventory Minecraft is always a fucking mess and I really don't want it to go that way this time. All right, it is becoming night time. The sun is going down so we're going to go sleep in our other house for now. I've just started. I've got a diamond pick. I'm starting on my castle and I have a second home in the hills. Things are gone swimmingly. Okay, my second home is haunted. I cannot sleep in it. There's too many monsters lingering about it. There goes the neighborhood. Actually, I think you should be saying that when I joined the village. I haven't seen a villager since. Oh God. I hear danger. I'm running away. All right, morning. Great. And another farm to destroy. I just composted my food. God damn it. Why does everything bad happen to me? I say as I leave this village starved. I'm like, I wonder why I haven't seen any villagers since I joined as I take all of their food and resources. What? I didn't say I was going to stop. It's potatoes. I'm Irish. I can't help myself. There's a villager. He's probably judging me. He quickly turned away as soon as I pulled out my sword, though. Oh, no. Oh, no bees. Go away. Go away. I really don't want to die to a bee after all this. I'd be so upset. Honestly. Okay. Yeah, you can come in. It's nice to have a roommate. Come on in. I'll call you bones. You know, I think I've named a lot of things bones right now. All right. Let's make us a full set of iron armor. I don't have ever had this this early in the game before. Look at that. I'm still the default skin Steve, by the way. I wanted to get Jim Pickens as my skin as I have it in the normal Minecraft the Java version, but I couldn't figure it out and I was eager to play. Wait, Noah, did he get out? Oh, god damn it. I forgot there was an exit. All right. I'm going to live on potatoes for a while. It should be easy. It's pretty much what I do in real life. Some countries have like mandatory military service. We've mandatory live off potato service. It lasts like a long fucking time. I'm 26 years in and there's no signs of stopping. This is going to be a pretty queen house. I just want like an actual place to live in and just be safe before we go building anything extravagant. All right. Look, villagers, I know I've stolen a lot from you and in light of that, I'm going to steal a bed as well. I mean, I've stolen so much. I really don't think it makes a difference at this point. I'm sure you'd agree. Ah, perfect. I don't have enough stone to finish the roof. Great. Well, look, we won't worry about that for now. It's still safe and that's the main thing I want right now. I can't tell if that's lava, too. That looks weird, but it could just be the lighting. I can get in my castle. Get away from me. Chicken do something. Okay. He just kind of accepted that he was going to die. Kind of like me at the start of this episode, but now I've grown too attached to what I've gathered. Look at that. Now that's looking pretty slick. We got a nice little place to chill and quarantine in. And I'm allowed to sleep immediately. This is a good sign. I probably should have seen how this looked before. I actually went and did it, but I made some oak planks to try and secure the base a bit. I'm really scared of a spider coming in. I want to make it out of stone. You know, I want to vary it up a little bit. And I think this will look quite nice and as well. It's the only thing I had. So it was very convenient. Okay. This isn't about style. Okay. Maybe it's a little bit about style, but it's mainly about survival. Survival of the fittest, they say, which doesn't bode well for me. I play video games a lot. Okay. There we go. We got a little overhang all the way around now. That's something. Okay. This looks kind of nice, actually. And then we can build our little wall all the way around or maybe just leave it like that. I don't know. I can't be wrong. If it looks ugly, it's the comments fault. Oh, that is lava. Okay. That's good to know. Oh, there's a drowned there. Oh, I have to do something about that pool. I don't like it. We can pour lava over it or something just to get rid of it. I don't like drowned. They kill me a lot. Honestly, I could make this into a two story and just have it like kind of a narrow house going upwards because I'll get a better view and I'll feel safer and feels kind of scary going inside because the lighting makes it look very dark when you're outside in comparison. And I'm like, can stuff spawn in here, but then you come in with windows and stuff like that though. It looks way too dank. You don't want a quarantine in a place without windows. I think you'd go a bit insane. You know what? Now that I think about it, I think iron doors would be a good shout as well. So nothing could get in or out. And I could have a back door and a front door. How many potatoes can one guy eat? Just raw potatoes straight out the ground. I think our Minecraft character is somehow more Irish than me. Okay. We've got a little farm. I think I'll make like the infinite water resource into a little well somewhere. I essentially want everything to be self-sufficient like these little walls. I'll definitely expand out the walls more as we go, but right now we've enough space to do the little bits and bobs that we need to. But I think we've done enough for one day. God, I enjoyed this. I enjoy making videos. I really, really enjoy making videos. I had this discussion recently, and I was even saying if I made no money at all, like from anything or surrounding making videos, I would still be making them. Probably wouldn't be able to do them as frequent because, I mean, you also need to survive and you need money, but I would still be making them. I fecking love doing what I do, but this has been the most fun I've had in a long time making a video, so I hope you enjoyed it. I never really asked for this usually, but if you enjoyed, please do leave a like or a comment, just leaving your support and allowing me to continue doing these, I guess, because if there is support, I'd be happy to do more of them, and hopefully we can have a proper little go at doing a hardcore survival let's play, but let me know. Let me know what you want to see. But for now, the sun sets on this episode. I do hope you enjoyed this episode. I appreciate you watching, as always. I hope you're staying safe given the state of the world right now. That's the main concern, I suppose, and yeah, thanks for watching. I hope to see you next time. Bye for now.
