I think the warden wasn't ever completed back then. Though I agree with nearly everything else you said. They definitely wanted to put more depth into the warden and the deep dark, along with having time to implement the cities and create good unique loot.

I hope they at least give Echo Shards like 2 or more uses than a Death Compass, to give them more value for the looting aspect. Be a shame a cool item gets lost in obscurity.

or for once they aren't going to test the dimension their just going to give it to us without announcing it at all and we have to discover it for ourselves like last minute when the update drops they just give it to us

@Fitz the dragon in what way is the wither connected to the "Origin"

@@ismailabaza411 you're right that there's already a Beginning to the End, but Origin, as in "origin story" suggests something that happened before the beginning of the story. And there's no one interpretation of what the achievement names mean. It might as well be a new beginning after finishing the previous story, since most people fight the wither after the dragon

@@ismailabaza411 the only reason the achievement for it is the beginning is because the ender dragon is “The End”, so they later made the wither’s “the beginning”

DAMN I thought of the same exact thing! That’d be epic! To be honest I was very skeptical of the idea of this being a mew dimension, but the more I think about the more optimistic I am. If this was intended purely for lore reasons, it’d be so excessive for them to make Reinforced Deepslate so permanent and to make the structure so complete and unique. Yet it is always, ALWAYS complete and unscathed. In fact that was a bug on Bedrock that got patched. Reinforced Deepslate was movable and they changed that cuz it’s not the intention. Even though Kingbdogz said it’s currently doing it’s job by adding mystery, he can absolutely see the NUMEROUS theories of a new dimension, which he never even addressed. He never called it a portal. Usually when devs do that, it’s because they don’t wanna spoil. If it was never meant to be a portal to a potential new dimension, the devs would have never kept nudging towards “something interesting that players need to explore in-game” or would have let the hopes escalate like that. Devs like Kingbdogz especially care too much about the community’s heart to do so; if an expectation, not just suggestion, is false they usually say that in the end. They kinda did so with Fireflies in the video they released today. But being silent about it AS A WHOLE is a good sign. Plus the fact that it’s called a portal in the game-files but not officially; I doubt the game’s inner builds need to acknowledge that if it was just for lore. Overall I’m happy for this video. I am really praying for this to happen one day; doesn’t have to be too soon. Remember that they usually plan major updates at least 2 years prior, at least in terms of features. Maybe 1.22? It depends.

@@ismailabaza411 the warden and ancient cities are connected to the wither through the concept of souls the wither is summoned using soul sand and slulk literally feeds on souls to spread plus the warden has souls in it's chest

Maybe they could call it "Interdimensional" or something and we could also hopefully get the end update v2

Perhaps a warden or sculk type dimension sense the sculk seems like a growth along with the warden which were sent to protect the portal

YES!!! that’d be so poetic

We need a End Update properly before a new Dimension

@@Yogarpg the end update shouldn't be big like the nether, maybe just a few things. It can definetely be done alongside something else

Maybe something akin to the Hallow from terraria? Something twisted in how innocent it is

@@fgvcosmic6752 how is the hallow innocent those darn unicorns constantly murdering you and stealing your kidneys and their slime buddies knocking your stuffing out

Leave it to me. So, the music disc has somebody light something and a portal noise starts. Then a monster noise plays. What is the monster? The previous trypo phobia warden type. How do I know? The portal shape is the same shape as the trypo wardens head And ears. There's more. when you watch (the secrets of Minecraft: how we made the warden) they show the trypo warden and it's animation in the game. So, why would they scrap a masterpiece with full animation and texture And behavior? Idk What do you think? Am I wrong or right?

I think the disc may have been happy before but then the skulk corrupted it leading to the recording of the person being put on

Its gonna be the aether portal i mean they got the guy who made the aether mod working for them now

the warden could also just be guarding a city

It guards the city

I have a theory that "Warden" may have been its original purpose but not its current one. Perhaps it was a guardian of the city that got corrupted by Skulk or a failed attempt to make a golem, similar to the Wither. For another interpretation, if the Warden is from the other side of the portal, perhaps Skulk has some natural opponent in the other dimension that is mutually hostile with skulk.

I thought about the end cities and matpats theory, the people of the end cities have the technology to kill the ender dragon. Yet they didn't. I think the ender dragon was their defense against whatever is in that portal as the zombies aren't nearly enough to kill off that original civilization as their technology far exceeds the villagers. I think they were escaping from the overworld because of whatever is in that portal.

It's a Mojangian/ancient builder priest. He was infected by Skulk which came through the portal, and grew stronger and deadlier. He killed everyone else in the city, which further strengthened him through human soul energy being the most powerful. This also spread the skulk throughout the city. He was left stuck down there, since shortly after the disaster he was forced into a Shrieker, much like a genie's lamp. However, when activated, it releases him. And when released, he attacks everything he can hoping to kill the one who forced him in there in the first place.

I think the stomping is coming from pillagers bc in the city it seems like they were there before

ooh like a more difficult raid

@@thewonderfulwonder1614 lol start a raid then summon the warden 😂

I also think, based on the disc, it's going to be much lighter than the nether and end. Like the aether, which was based on the sky and tbf opposite of the "evil" nether, I feel like the new dimension will be a happy place, possibly corrupted by some force

@@fgvcosmic6752yeah, and you must defend it from possibly a monster trying to destroy the peacefulness of it and make it like the Nether, which could explain why villages are more spread out, as the evil has been corrupting the overworld and leaking through.

yeah minecraft rn is super small game

@@Littlewomen24 not really, just that there’s some stuff that gets repetitive when you get better gear

@@darreldarrenman3334 I think the thing is so many of us have beat the Ender Dragon now and we're looking for more post-Dragon content which is something the game is severely lacking in

Why does it feel like the portal is a portal to the void?

Or something on the edge of the void being trapped there

It's either stopping what comes out or stopping anyone from going in

Ever thought of how the warden spawns? It is spawned when you trigger a shrieker, it’s a skulk block with souls in it. If you watch Game Theory on their theory on this, they say the warden is the guard or protector of the Skulk Species. The warden isn’t guarding the city, it’s guarding the skulk.

@@BL0XYBryanYT City chests contain sculk and inhabitants had tools to control the sculk, as well as build their architecture in image of the warden. Sculpting these things would not happen if it was dangerous to constructors, and Game Theory completely ignores illager infrastructure that considering the violence of illagers leads to following conclusion: it was illagers carrying out the extermination despite the wardens, rather than wardens themselves being the problem.

I think it’s a continuation of 11

That’s what I’m saying! It should light up the portal.

Haha

@@Venomousnack lol maybe

@@Venomousnack there's probably a music disc in-between 5 and 11 and 13 must be after 11

@@isopodslug6365 yeah, but I hope the end stays the same,,otherwise it'll ruin the mood of it

@@frenchempire9471 I think the end needs an update too iam just saying

But kingbdogs has already said it isn't a portal. he said its a among us joke (if you outline the structure its a wide among us caracter)

@@TylerMarkRichardson that's almost definitely just him trolling

What would really be convincing is if the peaceful music that plays on music disc five starts at the one minute mark and ends at the one minute and 20 second mark.

That could be linked to the theory that the ancient civilization who probably killed the whole dragon species split in two fractions and one of them were against the dragon genocide but also know that the dragons played a important role in the world or in the whole reality, and maybe some of them Build the ancient city to find a solution or an escape from the big cataclysmic event and some of them finding hints to a new dimension so maybe then they build a portal but behind that was something really creepy thing or something goes terrible Wong maybe the skulk is something like a parasite fungus maybe this came out of the portal and the Warden was just a normal mechanic guard or they found this stuff on the other side and think this could safe the world/reality and they experimenting with that but it was a miisstake soon the skulk spreads through the city and we'll that's it but maybe the Warden don't rly protect the portal but goes his Casual job to protect the city

This wouldn’t make much sense, just due to it being unnecessary. Why make a new mob boss who is presumably the hardest mob, only be done up by a raid once he’s defeated. It’s a very cool idea but I think it would be more likely like the enderdragon, having an exploration after beating the boss

I don't think it would be the dragon egg because there's only one dragon egg per Minecraft world. If it got lost or destroyed you could never go to the new dimensions. And there would only ever be one portal if that portal got lit and used up the egg. I also don't think they'd make the dragon egg not one of a kind since that ruins the point of it being a unique trophy item.

@@BookSloth That’s a good point. Maybe the end will be updated to have a rare chance to drop an egg (after the first one, of course) because there have to be multiple eggs because there are multiple portals.

You can make another egg when you respawn the dragon.

@@sacrificiallamb4568 No, it only appears once. Respawning the dragon with the crystals will not create another egg.

Oh, I'm a 360 player. Sorry.

I'm glad your a new fan of Minecraft and are interested in lore. Right now there's no really direct answers to most lore in Minecraft, only hints. Though I do feel like Minecraft is putting lots of attention on the deep dark. So I think the portal will be added either during 1.20 or 1.21. Then there will likely be a combination of hints and new questions.

@C.M. Welcome to the community! You should consider checking out Game Theory (if you haven’t already) for some additional exploration into Minecraft lore 😁

Also RetroGamingNow and their Minecraft iceberg 🫠

my idea is that these cave dwellers built a giant city underground, did a bunch of crazy stuff with redstone, and awakened an ancient death spirit that hates the living (a.k.a. the Warden) that used the sensitive sculk fungus and ancient fossils to form a body for itself. whenever they bothered it, they were almost immediately killed by it, spreading the sculk. the sculk catalysts can absorb souls (XP) and harness death in a way much like plants harness sunlight to feed the sculk fungus. over time the city inhabitants learned to use wool to soften their footsteps and were able to live more safely. they also made technology that allowed them to make a portal, which they used to escape the deep dark. in doing so, they left the once great cities to the warden and the sculk. here we find it today, millenia old, with even the toughest deepslate structures falling into disrepair.

@@ChuckSploder Awesome theory

Bro imagine the dimension is a huge, war-torn kingdom corrupted with skulk and full of new loot, materials and mobs

​@@darkartist4932 Imagine if the dimension is full of the scrapped warden designs. Except the tryphobia ones.

Personally, I don’t think that will happen

It’s confirmed the Aether will never come to the game, but they didn’t say a Sky Dimension would never come, and infact a suggestion abt a Sky Dimension is under review on the Minecraft Feedback site

@@NormanOtterman Well, it could be that the Aether as it was originally won't be in the game. However, there's nothing saying that a reworked version couldn't make its way in eventually.

@@wariodude128 Yeah Ik, which is why I said a Sky Dimension could be still added.

@@bibekdas7449 the illagers and pillagers are different entities. The vindicators and evokers in woodland mansions are the illagers

@@CivilMold No, They are together called illagers cause even if there is a Mason and a cleric they still are villagers

They aren't going to add the aether. Firstly Minecraft doesn't like adding features that are widely available in mods. Though some features from mods have been added like frogs, there's a difference between taking a real animal and taking an entire unique dimension. Also the developer of the aether that now works for Mojang has said that they aren't going to add the aether due to various reasons. First if they add a new dimension they would want it to be new and unique, not a copied mod. They also said that there's potentially some copyright issues since the developer who now works for Mojang isn't the only person who worked on the aether mod.

@@BookSloth frogs are from the biome vote?!?!?!!?

@@wasquash I know, but because frogs are real life animals they technically could have been in a mod prior to the mob vote. I was just using them as an example of how Mojang only adds features from mods if they're really minor features. I just wanted to avoid someone pointing out a minor feature from a mod that's in Minecraft and not noticing the difference between a minor feature and a whole dimension.

After that flint and steel sound you can clearly hear burning sound means its not the portal being lit its maybe a campfire or the soal soil in the city being lit

Wouldn’t make sense to not do anything with it until 3 years later “at the earliest”. That doesn’t make any sense and is irrationally pessimistic

Echo shard looks like a corrupted amethyst, might be that

Wouldn't be surprised. I mean taking into account the existence of echo shards, that should alude to that fact.

I think u are right. I've found amethyst geode in the ancient cities almost all the times plus the chest loot also includes amethyst shards

Tho that would be difficult cause new blocks and items would instantly be found, so they'd have to hide those too somehow.

I think adding it randomly could be cool and work out for hype, i mean look at apex legends, it basically had no announcement and its now one of the biggest games as of right now

@@Aqua-Inferno Yeah, or at the least don't let us actually explore it ourselves till it's fully released

Or make it expensive to craft, or make it have a limit to what can be saved. Perhaps you select what items you want it to save, and a box has a limit of 9 items it can keep safe. If it were expensive, maybe 8 Echo shards surrounding 1 Netherite Ingot to make a new item too? could be used for future uses, plus for this it could be you need 4 of these New Echo-Netherite with the Shulker Box to create the Recovery Box. It would be very grindy, very expensive, yet very worth it in the end.

Yeah, there's lots of hints toward if being a portal later on. Recently they even fixed a bug where the ender dragon or wither could break the reinforced deepslate. That just shows how important it is to Minecraft. I think it is minable for the player, though I think that's only because they want people be be able to use the deep dark for builds more easily if they want, since no mobs (except technically wardens) can spawn in the biome. I definitely think it'll be 1.21 that they add the dimension if they have plans to. Mojang has stated they will only add new dimensions when existing ones are good, so all that's technically needed is a 1.20 end update

Spawners can be broken but drop xp and nothing else

it would be really hard if not impossible to convert java to bedrock, becuse minecraft bedrock runs on c++, and minecraft java runs on java. They would have to convert programming languages, so probably no.

There are programs that can do this but you'll have harsh borders between chunks that have been generated in different versions.

you can, just transfer the bedrock world to windows 10 with a realm. From there it’s on your computer and there’s many programs you can easily switch it to Java.

A GAME THEORY

I cannot comprehend how illagers could be sculk corrupted villagers. 1. Sculk technology. Illagers lack any form of it. They have no echo shards, no sculk in direct form, no otherside or 5 discs, no swift sneak enchantments. 2. Architecture. Inhabitants of cities build from deepslate, basalt, grey wool and use soul lights or candles, and sculpt wardens' faces everywhere. Illagers use colorful wool, dark oak wood and use conventional fire, and paint their own ugly mugs in wool with dyes. 3. Other technology. Inhabitants of the cities use redstone, hoes, amethysts, glow berries, and left no weapons, even if they had enchantments for them. Illagers are warrior culture with no knowledge of machinery and reliance on offensive magic and simple materials like iron, emeralds or diamonds. 4. Food. Inhabitants of the cities refrigerate potatoes, carrots, stew. Illagers grow their own crops, largely wheat, melons and pumpkins. 5. Cause and effect. Or rather, lack of it. You can settle villagers in an ancient city and leave them to contact sculk for very long time, over generations, and it does not affect them in the slightest. Regarding other things, note that portals have very gold-heavy loot, gold built-in as part of infrastructure and Minecraft Legends explain that piglins used portals to invade the overworld. It's rather unlikely that it was the same civilization as builders of most infrastructure. Additionally, illagers have very distinct infrastructure, it almost always involves use of dark oak wood, cobblestone, some form of colorful wool, and occasional birch planks. It's absent outside of mansions, outposts, mesa mineshafts and siege buildings in ancient cities. Most of abandoned infrastructure involves regular oak instead and whatever local material on hand (usually in brick form), shipwrecks have various types of wood but almost never birch and dark oak together. Additionally, drowned spawn in ruins, and they are clearly not illagers. Most of abandoned infrastructure also contains horse armor, something notably lacking in illager structures - illagers are mostly infantry with occasional ravager cavalry, and the only horse cavalry to date are undead horse bowmen that spawn during thunderstorms, Steve and Alex.

@@anonim-8572 that's completely fair and probably a better read than mine, lol. i was mostly spitballing there. your explanation makes more sense than anything i was thinking, haha.

@@wintyrbarnes8533 I think there were various civilizations involved there. An extremely decisive factor to me is loot found in chests, and to a bit lesser extent architecture. Piglins are responsible for bastions and portals, and characteristically use a lot of gold, even for body armor, and whenever in Nether, blackstone. Some of their treasuries contain overworld equipment, in my judgement has to be plundered gear. Notably they have no horse armor, even from gold, and saddles only in stables (note: you can ride striders). Illagers are responsible for mansions, outposts, left traces of combat in ancient cities, and may potentially have been responsible for mesa mineshafts. Once again: those leaf-lovers cannot live without their dark oak even in middle of the desert or 150 meters below surface of mountains and like their colorful wool, too. Strongholds, dungeons, nether fortresses, end cities (!), desert and jungle pyramids all appear to be made by a civilization or series of civilizations that seem to be Steve's ancestors - who notably all used horse armor and saddles, and valued iron and diamonds the most, and gold and emeralds to lesser extent. Some of their structures involve brewing stands or potions. Villagers are present in villages (duh) and also imprisoned in igloos, though the latter seem to be medical labs more than anything else. They also breed horses and have horse armor despite not using horses themselves. I think they are allies of fallen horseman civilization. Ancient cities seem to be a splinter or friends of general horsemen civilization - they also have horse armor and saddles, and shared love for Otherside with strongholders and for redstone with pyramid builders but used soul tech, sculk tech, candles, Regen II potions, amethysts, swift sneak unlike everyone else and left no diamonds or iron after themselves plus seem to have used no wood. Given evidence of illager presence, lack of weapons stored and sculk overgrowth (catalysts work when things die) they most likely got massacred by illagers. Shipwrecks, ruins and buried treasures seem to be from another adjacent civilization to horsemen despite lacking horse armor themselves. Interestingly they had no copper in storage, despite drowned having copper ingots on themselves. Buried hearts of the sea combined with drowneds' nautilus shells and prismarine scavenged from some ruins or hacked off monuments can create conduits. Ocean monuments themselves however, seem to have no direct connection to anything. Hell, prismarine is a synthetic material. To be honest, whatever was going on with underwater is the most confusing to me.

yeah I was thinking robotic city world with maybe goblins mines underground with yellow stone and maybe blue stone with bricks of course maybe even limestone

I was also thinking of a sacrifice due to all the souls around the deep dark and the repeated color blue, which in Minecraft represents souls. Though I don't know about killing the warden because not having players want to or be able to kill the warden is a whole point of it. Locking a dimension behind a warden kill would make the dimension way too rarely traveled to by players, along with ruining the point of the warden.

Oh my Lord... awesome!
