yes, it may be a surprise to hear that the world has been passed on - but don't worry! info is already out about this 👀 and also, CodeNeon is completely cool with me mentioning it here :)

[CodeNeonMC]

LOVED this vid Leon. There were definitely a couple signs you showed that I never found!

Easily one of my biggest regrets from my time is not getting to talk about the impact you left on the world. (That was my plan for the next episode before I died...)

Before you had the world, there was pretty much just Founders Town and the Fields of Regeneration. They're both great, but you were the one that really fleshed out the world! Whenever I left Founders Town, it never felt just like some ol' Minecraft world. It felt like UHCG....because all around me I had places that were created by someone else. YOU made that happen.

Also you might not have left too many secrets, but you kicked off my first episode with a treasure hunt, and that helped me show the vibe of the series so much in my first episode!

I appreciate you sharing your thoughts so much. It's really nice to hear about your regrets. It's weirdly comforting to hear that you, the only generation to end their time intentionally, still wish you had done things differently. For those of us who didn't get that luxury, it's a comfort to know that a "perfect ending" is a myth. And that's part of what makes the world so great, isn't it?

Thanks again for giving me the chance to be part of this amazing project. I look forward to watching the future generations with you and the others! ❤

It was very interesting to hear your thoughts, bro.

UHCG represents old Minecraft, with people just having fun playing Minecraft their own way, with no complete dead-set path. Leon's editing (which he talks about in the episode), all of these generations try to help each other, which is always extremely wholesome. for example, Leon made the farms, CodeNeon made the vengeance armor, moai made the fields of regeneration. it feels like all that the generations make are to help keep the world thriving, and it feels amazing watching this series. all of this gives old Minecraft vibes, and I am glad how this all ended up.

[Quillbee]

UHC Generations just wouldn't be the same without you. I'm so glad you agreed to take on the series.

I feel exactly the same about being too focused on the "now" and not enough on the big picture. You might say I had... tunnel vision.

Anyway, I think you had a great run, and the precedent you set of taking your own life makes a lot of sense. Especially as the series passes on to bigger and bigger creators, chances are most of them are gonna be pretty resilient so they might need a way out.

[TangledLion]

Not gonna lie when you talked about the potential of UHCG I felt that. It's the one for all of MC YT

[pxrmoto]

Im mad that i didn’t discover and connect with this sooner… I’m happy I have seen this series now. It feels so special and I am hyped for the future.

[neofriberg]

Thats really the great thing with uhcg that it has the editing quality of new minecraft videos but also being as genuine as old minecraft videos. Definitely my favourite minecraft series.

[KefkeWren]

You've been a part of something amazing, you know? I could tell from when I first got a UHCG video recommended to me that this one was going to be special. It's a kind of story, an experience, that's truly unique.

[MonoCodeYT]

I always love videos like this, it just feels genuine, and hearing your thoughts about your own series, talking about things that you wouldn't really have another chance of mentioning is really interesting to listen to.

I'm honestly surprised to hear that some people disagreed with how you ended the series. Given how things went, I really think that it was the perfect end to your series. I feel like in the same way that Moai was the perfect first and Quill was the perfect second generation, you were the perfect third generation, and I think for something like UHCG, the first three generations are by far the most important ones for the future of the series.
Not putting down Josh's series at all ofc, I would call him the perfect fourth generation as well, especially for archiving things that would've for sure been lost to time at some point if it wasn't for him, it just feels like the first three generations were the make or break points of the series.
That reminds me, Moai actually asked me if I wanted to be his successor, meaning I would've been the second generation. I did agree to that, but given my playstyle, and also the fact that I only kind of understood the genius of this series at that point, I can't help but feel like that would've steered the series in a much worse direction. Not sure how close he was to picking me, but I truly think that Quillbee was the right pick for the second generation, I'm just grateful that I was able to be along for the ride since the very first episode, being a fan of this series since day 1, and I'll stick around until the very end.
Really feels like I'm just yapping at this point, but I guess this is a good chance to get my thoughts out lol


Also, oh my god, Leon follows my channel, my life is now complete.

[carinaelliott]

The concept of UHCG has always reminded me of regeneration in Doctor Who. Every player/actor puts a different stamp on the world/role, and every era feels completely different, and that's why it can last a VERY long time. When it gets stale, a new player will take it in a different direction. I see this as a series that will grow with time, rather than shrink. There will be well-known channels that come in and reshape it, and there will be smaller channels that will get the world and absolutely explode. This series is such a perfect concept, I'm amazed no one thought of it before Moai

[TheKindredCollection]

It's super interesting how with each new generation, it's going to bigger and bigger creators. This format is definitely gaining traction, but it's super cool how it all started with humble beginnings. That shouldn't ever be forgotten with the future of this world.

[CoreyKearney]

Ya the concept is getting noticed, I saw thumbnail from yogacast the other day titled 'Minecraft pass the world when you die' or something to that effect. My heart sank. You guys put so much into to this, and a 7mil sub channel that doesn't even do MC content normally goes and does that. UHCG is the OG and whatever happens you guys should be proud.

[Lime-mydb]

"I'm happy with what i did" *kills a Llama*

[TayloBaby]

I think you got alot of us that were teens in the early days of minecraft youtube watching this series because you all have carried this vibe that just feels like old minecraft

[FunnyCraftSheep]

UHCG is actually such a fun and entertaining concept, I absolutely love it.

[OolongSnakeArt]

The series has so much it can do:
Elder Guardian Raid
Dragon/End
A lot more farm builds (food automation, ect)

[jerrebrasfield]

I enjoyed your work on it. I was hoping to find another group trying this but havent found any. You guys did a good job keeping the atmosphere consistent in the series.

[ItsMeSlip]

Thank you for your dedication and hard work on UHCG. Don't forget the impact of what you've done! You laid the foundation for something special - a series with wings! And the incredible relationship you now have with Josh and everyone in Skyblock Kingdoms wouldn't have happened without your attention to detail and intentionality :) Well done Leon.

[roseblood]

I find it interesting that you felt hesitant on the series, just under the idea that it has the potential to never stop growing. (At least for some years to come) Your channel alone would be getting a constant feed of influence from it regardless of whether or not it ended up dying out someday. I can see the fear of passing it onto someone when its already dead and no one wanting it, but the sheer potential would entice me too much. It clearly did for you too in the end, and I'd say you made the best choice for the series by being a huge part of it.
