8:41 there's definitely something in the symbolism of great guardians protecting a lava cast.

While I don't actually play on 2b2t, I love hearing about its history through videos like these

I like how Sal keeps the vibe that it's just a block game, unlike Fit who makes 2b2t looks like a second life for the players.

I like how they even erode like real monuments, with people taking pieces of them over time. Throughout history whenever people needed stone or stuff to build houses they would get it from ancient forgotten temples and structures and these monuments seem to be no exception to people with a diamond pickaxe

I love the analogy of sand castles. There are Tibetan monks that would spend hours creating beautiful sand drawings just to destroy them in seconds. What fascinates me about 2b2t is the organicism where player literally build their own RPG world. It also enlightens a philosophy in life I think that offers a lot for people to learn from.

3:54 woahhhhhhh! that program that shows where to place the blocks looks sweet!

I love the creativity of some of the mega builds on 2b2t I struggle to get the motivation to finish huge projects like that as it is, I think I'd be even less motivated if I knew everything was 99.9% guaranteed to get griefed 😅

I'm into archaeology and paleohistory in general, focused on the processes which produce history as we are able to observe it. I find it fascinating how the defacing of the 2b2t monuments mirror the historical repurposing of monuments in ancient history. For example, it was not uncommon for ruins or monuments to be used as "quarries", reusing the stones to build new structures (see the Roman colosseum). I also find it funny how the looting of the beacons from the 2b2t monuments mirrors how the white and gold top layer of the great pyramids had be almost entirely looted from their creation to modern day.

I love how the server's spawn has been in full entropy for most of its life

Even if it's mostly because they're such resilient blocks, obsidian combined with beacon lights is legitimately beautiful.

I'm genuinely surprised a server like 2B2T chose to build obsidian crosses instead of a pentagram.

I'm actually more interested in learning the history of 2b2t than the history of the world

Thank god we have you and Fit on telling some crazy stories about 2B2T, you two always one upping each other every single video about 2B2T, but both of you are amazing, this build tied up with the New Argonath and all the massive builds in the server.

It's kind of cool though, almost like they're ancient ruins of structures with history that you won't even begin to uncover. Beautiful builds

Stuff like this is why I love the concept of 2b2t, completely emergent gameplay, structures that you don't maintain slowly crumble to dust, much like they would in real life. The one thing that I fear is that Microsoft will soon just send cease and desist to 2b2t because people say stuff they don't approve of in the server chat. That and the server just being super lax on everything. After recent updates I can tell that Microsoft does not approve.

Building near spawn is like trying to paint street art in some big city. So beautiful yet so ephemeral.

i remember flying by the monument at 10k +x a few years ago and thinking it was really cool, had no idea you had been a part of building it

I wonder how 2b2t would be if grieving in Minecraft was not so OP easy, but tedious.

I can only dream to build something as impressive as those 4 builds

Darn. Missed opportunity to call in spawnuments

Another highly produced SalC1 Video!

Ain’t no way sal is still using the old world png that still has the spawnmanson logo intact

Sac1 you just make my day every time you post like If I am watching a video and see you upload I instatly start watching

06:46 Sorry for being triggered by such a minor thing, but EXPONENTIALLY DOES *NOT* JUST MEAN "A LOT" I think I'm going to blow up my lab next time I hear someone say that When something behaviors in an exponential way, it means that each iteration is x times greater than the previous one. For example, as long as they have enough nutrients to multiply, bacteria cell numbers have an exponential growth, because each cell gives 2 new cells, so the number of cells starting from one cell roughly goes like this : 1 , 2 , 4 , 8 , 16 , 32 ... THAT is what exponential means Now, from every scientist who actually knows what exponential means : Thank you for reading this

On CPE+ we don’t have a history dupes so we went with far more modest and less durable builds. They’ve been griefed repeatedly of course, but their simplicity has made them easier to restore. Always it is a struggle against the people who think it is okay to kick over sand castles they have no claim to.

I actually encountered the northern monument soon after it was completed. I took a world download when I saw it in case nobody else downloaded it yet. I'm currently trying to join The Last Templar, but there's a huge number of new players trying to join right now. I'll try again next month.

Insane video ! Congrats !!!

2B2T really embodies the "nothing lasts forever" statement

you make my day when you upload!

The giant minimalist sentinel statues posing with their swords are one of the coolest builds I've seen.

awesome vid sal! I may do the same for Constantiam!

Wow. Those are absolutely beautiful!

It's literally like a weathering metal structure getting slowly ripped apart by the test of time. The destruction only adds to the story.

this vid is so good bro honestly

great video!

Another great video sal - Xcentric

Happy I get to see all of this work, time and patience all invested in the video. its true though, if the workers of this project wanted to preserve every last piece, they would've covered it with water.

This spawnument is literally the modern version of wrath outpost.

Lovely stuff!

you and fitmc are the best minecraft creators ❤

Thanks for the interesting video.

We need to do that collab and you show me more of these things in person sal!

SalC1

I love how you can essentially do scaled down Archeology on 2b2t

2B2T is not just a normal anarchy server that has no rules the nostalgia,history and players,its just amazing

I like how Sal as a Spawn Mason, still doesn’t recognize the Spawn Mason symbol being covered up

SalC1 if you see this, do you play hollow knight, I’ve noticed the music in multiple of your videos(one of my favourite games 🙂)

2b2t is legendary ngl

I’ve been to all of them except the one that was built in 2022, and I made a video exploring the 2 year monument. Beautiful builds 💜

The music in this video was incredible!

7:37 mature chat right there folks.

i’m gonna keep it real. I haven’t played Minecraft in about three years yet. I always find myself watching your vids bc they’re just entertaining LMAOOO keep it up😁

i just found your channel barely 1 hour ago, and now i feel to illegal saw this video early

Those lava casts seem to protect the build more than destroy it.

amazing videos, you might bring me to play 2b2t again

you got me confused as hell i was thinking you where ant venom for a sec

I love how you used soundtrack from Guild Wars 1

great vid

Change is the only constant in the universe.

i love your SalC1 dupe

I see a reflection of fitmc in him, I liked it

Very interesting!

Very well made video

LaiZ with the clutch ideas

Your thumbnails look like it’s from 2011-2014. In a good way these types of thumbs brings good memories from my childhood with Minecraft videos

Oh man, I'm always loving the Guild Wars music

My first ever base on 2b2t was actually set up right by the first 10 k monument hotel dumpserfire

Hey sal what hack client do you use nice vid btw

That is amazing

Incredible build! I am really surprised to hear Minecraft glide music!

Cool video!

the lava monster in the middle of the 4th one makes it look better in a 2b2t way.

Wow! That’s so cool! Also, hope to get into MIT. The result are in three and a half hours

This is great. .👍

on 1b1t there is an incredible spawn monument i have been rebuilding with help

woah i recognize one of the bgm lol, its from an mmorpg right? just wanted to point it out since its been so long since i played the game, gave me a little nostalgia

Hey, I love your videos! Do you need a video editor? I am looking for a job.

Yooo when gonna upload the cult in 2bt2.. I just watch fits video...

What were y’all using for the blue obsidian shadows showing you where to place them?

Great vid

Very cool (In danis voice)

I edited this comment because I can

Seeing all of those beacons is just jaw dropping i pray that you only duped for those

back in 2015 i built a base near the north highway at 10k on a mooshroom island, entirely made out of melons I doubt a single melon is left of it now lmao

About time.

HK music caught me off guard lol

The sheer number of beacons alone boggles my mind! @.@

Hey calc1, I have been watching your videos about 2b2t alternatives. I know of one on mobile and bedrock calld constantiampe not to be mistaken with constantiam and I think you need to take a look at it

these builds are impressive

“What might come next” is a new generation of players.

These monuments are so interesting

Two videos not only in one month but one week 😵

I laughed so hard at the minor griefing 😂

First 3 we're awesome builds but the last one was on another level. And I know it's life on 2b to destroy but to see it happen hurt me and I don't even play on it.

The ending is so inspiring i would love to play on this server but i am afraid of getting my ip leaked and getting hacked.

nice video

Sal, you are a poet, an architect, a prophet, and a mystic. EXCELLENT video.

Let's go, morning video (for me at least)

There is probably more obsidian placed in 2b2t than lava sources available in the overworld.

The fallen leaves tell a story.
