Hermitcraft 10: Episode 8 - RANKING HERMITS

In this episode of Hermitcraft season 10, Mumbo ranks all of the members of Hermitcraft by their weirdness when it comes to playing Minecraft. Each member of Hermitcraft has a unique (AKA weird) way of playing, and today we are ranking our personal opinions against the audience. This Hermits vs Audience episode was a lot of fun to make! Etho explains his deranged desk setup, Mumbo shifts with his thumb, Grian plays with a 2008 headset, and Joe Hills has a footpedal for sprint.

PSA: You aren't all that weird if you play minecraft on your couch. But if you've been playing for 5+ years, have a recording setup, made it your career, and spent enough money for a vtuber model, the fact that Cleo hasn't upgraded to a desk is absolutely bonkers

[eee]

I love how Grian’s headset is possibly older than a sizeable portion of his audience

Edit: I am concerned, please do not let strangers on the internet know your age

"Thank you for the invite to this freak show... I'm just left-handed" is absolutely sending me 😭

[jaxonmcalley]

Mumbo: "Where does the microphone come from?"
Cleo: "The staircase is—"
Everyone: "Nah, mate, I'm out."

[pixelatednova]

...Gem just has small hands and Joe is honestly an innovator. Did NOT expect Cleo coming out of left field with *soda cans*.

[woojinlee]

Gem: Sprint as Caps lock, F5 as R
False: I as inventory
Grian: Inventory with F, 2008 headsets
Joehill: Footpedals to sprint and controls, drop is -
Keralis: Left handed, shifts with thumb, jumps with pinky
Renthedog: E as forward, x as backwards, a as left, f as right
Impulse: Inverted mouse controls
Mumbo: Shifts with thumb
Zombiecleo: Couch gameplay, dangles mic from staircase
Ethos: Kleenex box as mic stand, keyboard up until elbows, sideways mouse, mousepad as wrist rest

[MundaTheDrow]

Joe is hilarious,
“How do you not go *car noises* everywhere?”

“That’s what the mute pedal is for.”

[ngabel]

I like the idea that someone gives Mumbo a thumbs up and he gets all self-conscious about his thumb-shifting

[Xenronnify]

So to recap,
Mumbo's hand breakdances on his keyboard

Cleo is the comfiest hermit, but her mousepad is technically explosive

Keralis is in denial

Impulse is MLG pro from 2008, which is also where Grian gets his headsets.

Joehills is just a drummer, but he may not realize it

Grian is a headset hoarder

Ren has the largest hands of any human person

False is just a lil quirky, and Gem is just a lil too good at the game.

And Etho is... Etho.

I keep coming back to this video... this might be my favorite hermitcraft episode of all time

[JairoMorales]

15:32 Keralis going "I'm just left handed!" was the funniest thing lmao

[Renend]

Etho’s “wait we found another one?!” actually killed me, this is one of the best episodes of Hermitcraft ever

[ErikErosa]

"Well that's what the mute pedal is for" 😂😂😂😂 I think I might've been sleeping on joehills. I need to make time to watch his videos too it seems

[cpmario]

Don’t forget the new realization that Mumbo uses ONLY his pointer finger to control WASD

[prudentia_]

Mr. Mumbo "one minute a day on social media" Jumbo returning to Twitter just so he could feel normal about his thumb shift thing is hysterical, Etho's setup really has opened up a can of worms

[KnittedSister]

I would like to point out, that a few years ago when Impulse first got his foot pedals, he was so exited that he bound all sorts of functions to them. During streams he would then raise his arms above his head, and shout at chat: I DID THAT WITH MY FOOT!!!!

[quiietriot]

"Where's the mic come from??"
"Well.. the staircase was behind me.."
The fact that new unbelievable details are revealed even 21:30 mins in!!!

[imi___]

As a game developer, I tell you: inverted mouse controls have to be in the option settings for any kind of FPSish game! Otherwise its pitchforks and torches in the forum on release date..

[naszfluckah]

I feel like there's even more context missing about Etho's setup.

In the clip with Tango and Scar, he mentions that his desk is *almost level with his shoulders*. He's not just resting his elbows on the desk, he's got his chair at its lowest height setting so he doesn't have to lean down to have his elbows and forearms flat on the desk.

Try it for yourself, see how low you have to go for you to have your entire forearms in contact with the desktop while keeping a straight back. And imagine having your mouse sideways in front of the keyboard, keeping the wrist straight and instead moving your hand from the shoulder and elbow. Then imagine looking up at your monitor from that low perspective and having a tissue box with a microphone partially in the way so you can't even see your keyboard.

He really deserves his own category.

Mumbo saying "This is what happened when you make a left-hander conform to a right-handed society" as everyone in line stares at him is hilarious.
