Etho just casually invents new designs for farming the most tedious items like it’s nothing

I can't believe we're actually finishing a major minigame build with Etho. They said it couldn't be done! Maybe we'll even get a roof on his house this season!

Grian, yesterday: "Time to start closing and demolishing pop up shops! We've had enough time to build something real!" Etho, today: "Hey guys, I finally put up my first pop-up shop!"

31:12 whenever etho says "taxes", I can't help but think of his nexus spirit. I imagine taxes still getting in the way when he's trying to build.

etho really said let me go in and forsake all that redstone encoding and decoding to make the 7 segment display legible and easy to work with. i'll be making mine with blood, sweat, more blood and tears. i wasn't expecting that cut to a fully functional spam proof redstone logic based 7 segment display lmao much less it being tileable!!! mr slab never dissapoints.

Messing with Scar at the end was priceless. This episode was such a great mix of fun redstone, games and shenanigans

I love how Etho just casually dropped 2 brilliant new redstone devices in one Hermitcraft episode like its nothing. Gem's reaction is how we all feel.

These mini-games of yours are getting bigger every time Etho! And I'm happy that you just mentioned one of my favorite projects so thanks for the shout out :-]

I was already so blown away by the trident farm, but then we got to the display and I swear I was just in awe the whole time. You keep making this game better, which is insane for how long Minecraft has been out. Thank you for everything you do, Etho! Very excited to see Frogger come to life!

6:15 a Hopper clock with a slab in it. Thats a certified Etho's slab hopper clock if I ever seen one

Good guy Etho: - Takes care to point out everything in the 7 seg display that viewers building it from the video would need to know - Gives credit to other creators (Maizuma, Crafty) for their innovations even when it isn't really even necessary

Love that etho shouts out the small channel geniuses who are the true forefront of redstone engineering. Not that etho isn’t, but the focus is different in the video vs straight redstone videos lol.

YOOOOOO crafty crafter counter mentioned!!!

3:35 Etho cut Gem calling him a genius, loving that

That bit with scar at the end was GENIUS, and the luck of bdubs actually taking damage there too, wild

i recommend covering the 7 segment displays in tinted glass to make them easier to read. When you darken the display the off segments disappear but without it they are still there and visually noisy so it makes it harder for your brain to quickly decode the number. i.e it always looks like 8 to your brain until it can process which are on or off and decipher the real number. Stained glass kind of works for this but its not dark enough to get the effect. This is a problem that actually also exists in real life which is why seven segment displays often have a black transparent layer on top to make them legible.

Ravager name suggestions: 1. Mushroom cloud 2. Road Rage 3. Skill issue 4. Two eyed willie 5. Canadian geese 6. Ergo's dishwasher 7. A Jumpscare 8. a saint bernard 9. Intro boy 10. Eating onions 11. Taxes (most of the names has references to your series done in past) The game looks awesome Etho, extremely brave move to do a 7 segment display it's so cool.

Hey Etho. I'm 40 years old, and I've been subscribed to you for at LEAST 10 years - probably longer. I've watched every video you've posted since I subscribed. Two days ago, I showed my 11 and 12 year old daughters their first Ethoslab videos - we watched a bit of Foolcraft together. You're truly a multigenerational KZfaqr!

23:43 Flying and looking at Tango's impressive redstone shop, then turning to Ren's diorite shop was a brilliant plot twist

Man we’re in a new Etho era, everything’s getting finished! From one chronic non-finisher to another, Im proud of you Etho!

The cut after iskall said, "oh yeah yeah, like Tango." Killed me.

I'm sorry, sir, but there's never a snooze moment on Etho's lab. Thank you

I find it hilarious that Etho makes a new seven segment display with the new components as a side quest

*gets diamonds* cuts "LETS GO SHOPPING!!" i had a real bad day and some classic etho humor cheered me up :-)

That is such a cool way to do a trident farm, never would have thought of separating then with a target block but it makes so much sense in hindsight

False is selling rivers Etho! She's got a big business goin on, she'll fill under that bridge!

etho: don't wanna make this much of a snoozer me, on my third time watching this video bc i kept starting it at 9pm and falling asleep:

I just love this season seeing so many original hermit redstone projects. And most laying off the super efficient designed stuff. Pushing creativity and inspiration for others to build off of is what I’ve missed.

The outro gaslighting was so good even Minecraft itself helped out

My fingers are never faster than when a new Etho episode notification flashes across my screen

My vote for the roadblocks would be a traffic cone of some sort. The orange would stand out nicely and there are enough orange panes/walls to play with different versions. Excellent video as always, Etho!

Im loving the pearl approach to invite other hermits to show the builds ! Super fun

31:45 The frogger game is cool and all, but your diorama ability is something else. I can tell all the singleplayer practice payed off. I really like those wall designs

I love the whole interraction with all the Hermits and the Frogger game so much, especially Grian, who once again, breaks all and every machinery when he's in relative proximity. Also, can I just mention how gorgeous the Frogger arena looks by itself? Most people know Etho for his amazing redstone and game design skills, but I just have to appreciate for a momment just how awesome and underrated of a builder he is as well.

The more I think about it and watch it, the more insane that 7 segment display design seems to me. I've spent weeks as a kid trying to hardcode a display the way he did, and even with infinite space and resources I didn't manage. This man does it in a 4 block wide TILEABLE design?! Granted, there's a few additions to the game since I tried it but even to someone who's passionate about redstone, this video absolutely blew my mind. Like, even more than every other video you make, that is.

It's one thing to understand Redstone but it's something else completely to use that knowledge in unique and creative ways. Etho is a friggin' redstone genius.

Gets investment diamonds from Iskall, instantly goes to the Diorite shop. Classic Etho

Did not know Etho used leafstone! I love how you're always learning and growing despite how long you've been at it. It's super easy to get stuck in old ways. Truly shows how dedicated you are to learning rather than just accomplishing!

In terms of practical redstone and problem solving, Etho has to be the best. I swear this man invents 1-2 new things per episode that are not only creative, but useful for a lot of people. That 7 segment display is absolutely genius!! I wish more people were talking about it

I’m really liking what Ethos doing this season, and I don’t really care about how long he’s been taking between videos, but it would be nice if he brought us a little more along with what he did because it occasionally feels like he’s just showing what he’s been up to rather than taking us along. Just an observation and suggestion, but other than that, keep up the good work Etho!

The scar troll at the end is peak comedy

A really rare vindicator coming through at high speed as a “dangerous driver” event could be cool for the game. The size of its hitbox is far too small but it could add some nice variation

Etho has been using mob behavior to seperate mobs from each other for 14 years now. I remember Ethos win over Zawbanjito back in the days. :)

Nice little reference to Slyfoxhound at 30:28 . I see you Etho, paying respect to the fellow ogs of minecraft

Etho separating mobs really brings me back to his early vids.

The immediate cut to shopping as soon as iskall invested.. as expected from Mr. Slab

Late to the upload due to college graduation... it's absolutely insane how long you've been making content. Been watching since like 6th grade... your content has gotten me through so much, from moving away from friends to losing loved ones. Thank you etho for all the content

Nice 7-segment display! Very cool that it's tileable as well.

I JUST YELLED "THE SLAB POSTED"

Make the unfinished space a VIP room to generate more diamonds from the big spenders. Like the box seats at a baseball game.

Holyy, that trident farm is so genius, how can you even come up with that!? Also Joel being so obsessed that he frames Etho, obsessed much, right?

You somehow have kept Minecraft fresh all these years Mr Slab, I don't know how you do it!!

Etho at the end just punching Scar is soooo good.

The fun interaction between Etho and Gem makes me wish for a Team Canada reunion, maybe with a fourth member? 😊

I love that this project went from admiring the very simple mini games that Bdubs comes up with to demonstrate his products to a full fledged complicated game using minecart tracks, and new 7-seg number displays. It isn't even done yet. I love it, but still.

Gem: "You make me wish I was good at Redstone." There's being good at Redstone and then there's being Etho. Pretty sure there are very few good Redstoners out there that could have come up with that Trident farm idea.

Was struggling with etho withdrawal. Finally I get my fix. The trident farm was amazing.

Etho video on my graduation day? Best day ever!

my withdrawal symptoms are showing. if I don't get more etho soon, i might actually go play minecraft myself

"And we're using a hopper clock" Oh you modest guy you > Full of slabs You clever guy you (☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞

etho seems to be enjoying this season so much, and together with him, so do we❤ the frogger game is gonna be legendary

GET YOUR SNACKS. THIS IS NOT A DRILL ETHO UPLOADED!!!

It's has been many years and multiple iterations, but this frogger game is finally the one. It looks great and from what I've seen of others it looks genuinely fun to play.

There were so many amazing things built in this episode. I also love the little details, like the fake cityscape with the dim redstone torches as skyscraper lights so that it doesn't draw your eyes too much to it. I never would have thought of that!

The joy I have everytime I click on an Etho video and go to the comments and see there are thousands of other 20+ year olds like me still thrilled to watch his videos

The concept for the drowned farm is SO GOOD. I love when farms take advantage of interesting game mechanics to do cool things. It gets me all excited to try and figure out some clever solutions for weird problems in my own world.

In the frogger game, players could be charged individually for lives, so that the frog light reward is set based on points, but the cost is set based on purchased lives. The lives could also be calculated retrospectively, so that they pay afterwards based on how many times they died.

As an extra level to keep this game relevant, you should a a desert theme with 4 block tall at most sand dunes where the rails follow up the dunes. This creates blind spots and makes the player want to follow the most difficult and blind path through the dunes that’s the fastest, otherwise they must jump up the dunes which is safer and you can find a route, but it’s slower and is something the players would need to consider. The wall art could be simple dunes and would add and additionally colour to your game. And to keep it difficult you could even run an extra level for double reward which is a similar concept to the desert but has flowing lava and the ravangers don’t follow a straight line, they follow the low paths between the volcanos, this would make the players want to scale the volcano but it’s slower and risky with the flowing lava blocking paths. Just an idea, who knows if you’ll even read this… always love the content!

Etho just casually invented one of the coolest and simplest redstone farms I’ve ever seen

Absolutely loving the frogger game, love how creative all the Hermits are with not so mini games

You can hear it in his voice: etho never really got over shopping. Makes deal with Iskall: SHOPPING!

18:18 Crafty! 21:41 Etho really can’t escape the old jokes lol 23:05 “Yeah, Mark always misses the mark, I tell ya” 23:31 The shopping addict returns :’) 24:20 “I don’t need diorite, nobody needs diorite” It’s ironic that iskall bought all the diorite just to burn it lol 28:45 “My dearest Etho” Team Canada

Dude, second frog from the left is my spirit animal. His eyes are so good

When you said "taxes" I remembered Taxes from your modded skyblock series. Good times. Maybe you can build something to commemorate Taxes.

"there's also less of a chance of the ravagers running into each other due to.. randomization piling up" 'Randomization piling up' is a funny nickname for Grian

Etho dont worry about the run time or conforming to it the short rapid content norm, commenting as a 10+ year viewer the lonnng episodes are LIT i can watch what i have time for and keep coming back to it. Regardless love any new etho content keep crushing it!!

Once again dropping whatever video i was previously watching (sorry doc) to watch ETHO!!!!!

The primitive technology theory holds true !!

It's just insane that Etho still is doing the same content regularly for over a decade, and still making redstone easy to understand despite the insanity of what he makes. I may not be a regular viewer anymore but I still pop in from time to time.

I was worried we wouldn't see Etho for a month after he dove into the 7-segment display rabbit hole and then he finished it in the same episode! Super cool design. Also I love to see more classic mob farming automation, just like in the alpha days. This is a top notch episode in my opinion.

I just love the sound of Etho talking tbh

and its a blue axolotl too xD - Etho nonchalantly invents a trident mob detector and then flexes with the blue axolotl. Amazing lmao

I have an idea for the deal with Iskall: Find a way to troll him with the 20% cut. Like, pay him in diamonds individually packed in shulkers, or charge people for playing Frogger in a way that's not _technically_ an up front payment to split with Iskall, (like they buy tickets to play Frogger elsewhere and then you just give Iskall 20% of the tickets lmao) or have people pay for Frogger in something worthless, or something else. If Iskall is playing the trolling game, then its fair game to play dirty too!

The end bit with, Scar! Hilarious. Great editing, like always! I am very excited to see frogger. Kind of reminds me of Hurtin' Hermits, which I would love to see finished. Thanks for the video!

I think giving the player the choice of how many lives they have with better rewards (Most likely more froglights) in relation to how many lives they choose, more lives giving less of a reward for completion compared to no lives. It'll make the difficulty more dynamic and let all skill levels enjoy the game with a fair chance at rewards

Etho and Gem is such a fun combo

Instead of the barriers, you could try replacing the leftover stubs with red sandstone walls to look like traffic cones, but I'm not sure how that would end up looking in the end.

It’s been a real treat seeing this version of frogger. I remember you talking about it way back and watching you attempt to make it a few times. This version is definitely the best and it has so much of your personality put into it. Amazing

Holy moly - Frogger was a childhood favorite growing up in the Arcades. 100% nailed it. The amount of stuff you do in Minecraft is mind boggling. I'm glad it seems like you are having a lot of fun playing with the other Hermits. And yes, you and Gem are adorable when you two get together in the game.

Etho thanks for still uploading new minecraft videos. Honestly even if you were uploading some other game, or doing something completely different I wouldn't care much. I just love being able to hang out with you in your wacky adventures. I can't thank you enough. -Calvin

etho actually finished the game in like 20 minutes. the real reason it took him so long to upload is because he was busy chopping firewood for winter

Gems voice of disbelief of the trident farm was so cute. That was a very clever way of making a trident farm. And frogger is looking so good. Really looking forward to the hermits playing it! Love the way you play this game Etho. Your ideas are always so unique and inspiring. Keep having fun!

That seven segment display is actually spectacularly cool, this video shows you are not only a brilliant entertainer, but a brilliant designer too

Adding Tinted glass in front of the 7 segment display really makes a cool effect, try it out! great video Etho!

Could frogs be added with/instead of turtles? Frogs jump to lilypads and dripleaf and they match the game so perfectly! Love the progress you've made! 💚

The slyfoxhound reference made me happy

the 7 segment display design made my jaw drop seeing it

oh this is exactly what i needed 😭 days been going so bad but etho posting is such a relief, instantly making everything better

Gem at 1:54. "It kinda hurts Etho. U need a slab there". Smooth...

Really like the look of the game, the roof and side walls help a lot bringing it together you put thought into everything.
