Minecraft, the phenomenal 3D sandbox game, has captivated millions of players worldwide with its boundless creativity and flexibility. Unlike many other games, Minecraft doesn't impose any specific goals or objectives, granting players the freedom to explore, build, and shape their virtual world as they see fit. While the game does feature an achievement system known as "advancements" in the Java Edition and "trophies" on the PlayStation ports, the true essence of Minecraft lies in its open-ended gameplay. Players can experience the game from either a first-person or third-person perspective, immersing themselves in a vast world composed of three-dimensional objects, primarily blocks, representing various materials such as dirt, stone, ores, wood, water, and lava. The core mechanic of Minecraft revolves around mining these blocks and placing them elsewhere, enabling players to construct anything they can imagine, from simple shelters to sprawling cities and intricate mechanical contraptions. Although the game's physics system may not be entirely realistic, it adds to the charm and uniqueness of the Minecraft universe. One particularly fascinating aspect of the game is the redstone material, which allows players to create primitive mechanical devices, electrical circuits, and logic gates, opening up a whole new realm of possibilities for building complex systems and automated structures. With its infinite potential and creative freedom, Minecraft continues to inspire and captivate players of all ages, making it a true gem in the world of gaming.

Fun fact: Grian (a famous Minecraft YouTuber) used Minecraft to design his backyard and gave the design as a reference to his contractors. He has a full video on his channel about it.

[aamacan]

I think we should get a part 2 and have them watch a couple Minecraft builders that use a more realistic style in their builds. That would be pretty nice.

[AkudesuTTV]

The fact they called the nether portal a TV had me dying 😆

[annieberardino]

I love how they slowly went from full architect analysis to have the artist come out full tilt and fall in love with the creative fantasy aspect of it.

[Jackasaurus]

Personally I feel like their talents would be better suited to the Sims games. Some really interesting builds they could break down.

[aetherkye]

I'd love to see these people react to bigger builds (usually called megabuilds) because you get some insane architecture!

[Olllie]

Next is Minecraft professionals reacting to rl architecture.

[laurealsauls]

The funniest thing was them calling the nether portal a disco screen.

[thekirbycrafter]

I like these guys. They understand its an imagination space but still try to get some fundamentals out of it. I think some better clips could be found however. There are plenty of mc builders who try to stay as realistic as possible and I do know of one who is an actual engineer who plans his builds as if he were irl. I sadly forget his name tho :, (

[ayoutubeperson]

I love how they call a literal portal to hell a disco tv

[roelfaber]

I want to see them build something on minecraft cause i dont think they have an idea how hard it can be building something nice

[abelpazos]

I love how they reacted exactly how I thought they would react which is with brutal honesty. I would've loved to see them have a chance to get on Minecraft and design their own build and see what they do

[Tzarina]

I love how little they know about the game they're looking at. It really gives a fresh perspective on what has become psychologically neutral to gamers like me.

[mihand]

I can't believe those two literally just called a Nether portal a TV screen 🤣🤣

[Infinite_Curiosity]

It will be interesting when gen z architects come of age. In for some irl minecraft builds.

[Mc.Scrumpy]

I know these are professionals but how are their imagination so... limited

[aaeriaesthetics]

the problem here is their comparing real life to a pixelated game made literally out of blocks. 😂i also love how they judge the way their building but when its done they love it😂

[arweedsavu]

I’ve never seen anybody call a portal “Disco TV” 😂 gonna use it from now on.

[ninjacow]

I think it's really fun to have these experts who have no idea about game mechanics (structural stability, weapons, armor stands, item storage, enchanting table) looking at these builds. It gives a much different insight without the bias of "for survival gameplay".

[JoeXTheXJuggalo]

I will say this: *To understand building in Minecraft you must first understand Minecraft itself.* These are simple and basic little builds. There's Minecraft YouTubers out there that has done things like build Las Vegas and New York City, a 1for1 scale of the Lord of the Rings world, and national monuments.
Than you got so many different types of build styles. Like modern, fantasy, medieval/castle, cottage core, sci-fi, technical (redstone builds), etc etc, and many more.
Just for a quick reference I'll say look up *"Hermitcraft".* Nearly everyone there has some amazing talents in their own way. Just to mention a few of them there's GoodTimesWithScar, Cubfan135, Iskall85, Xisumavoid, Mumbo Jumbo, bdoubl0100, False Symmetry, TangoTek, and ImpulseSV, etc etc. Heck even though I don't like him grian even has some good builds as well.
