I coded this Minecraft update in 7 days that adds an entirely new pillager city, and even coded a new custom Minecraft boss. What do you think a pillager overhaul would look like if Mojang updated them?

    "let's keep it as vanilla as possible" - 12 minutes later "YOU WILL CROSS SWORDS WITH A LITERAL GOD"

    More work in 2 days than Mojang has done in the last 4 years

    6:35 I mean, their only issue with Villagers is that they are too peaceful, never wishing to pick up a weapon to defend their land. Likely a Pillager shopkeep would still lop off your hand for trying to steal. A cutthroat merchant if you would.
  • @leviwendt6461
    THIS. WE NEED THIS. I like the idea of pillagers becoming friendly by means of a trial of combat. Gives Viking kinda vibes.
  • @dregspromise8118
    Vanilla villages "molding to the landscape" is stretching it in my experience. Ever since the village update, not a single village I have visited has been intact enough to be saved. Villages divided by a ravine, half on a giant cliff, houses standing 5 blocks above all others... yeah it's something.
  • @kodiibearv
    My jaw actually dropped at that guy who only took 15 minutes to create just a demo for the boss battle music. I aspire to have this kind of creativity and work ethic! Amazing video :)
  • @god....
    Mojang should just hire these guys. They crank out mode in record time with updates players REALLY want.
  • @AFRHmusic
    Great video! It was really fun making music for the boss battle! Jarl turned out awesome
  • @D3__
    You could've still had that boss theme as a music disc. Imagine you walk into the grand hall, the boss stands up and a pillager in the corner carries a music disc to a jukebox to start the boss music.
  • @larajacoby1094
    This is an awesome video! You didn’t just make an impressive storyline, builds and coding, but you were also able to put it together in a video that came out so fun and entertaining. The pillager Jarl’s story was on point! I would love to see an update like this in minecraft!!
  • @Hashmojis
    This is so cool, I love the idea of this and the execution is just.. wow
  • @ItsMeAgain.
    Just shows how little Mojang actually does in a year. Edit: People, stop making excuses for them. 1.20 sucked, and you can’t just say, “well it’s hard to make” because they made village and pillage and the nether update, both of which were great.
  • @GGBlaster
    You have inspired me to put code confirmations in my programs from this day forward. Thank you Whimzee
  • @Desenrad
    Absolutely love how it looks like it fits into the game so well. Yet I still believe going with a simplistic rout with the boss would be best. What makes Minecraft so unique is how everything is so well thought out. You giving your self a week takes away that very important time needed to really find something cool. This actually kinda shows how having a gameplay designer is really useful. they think of everything and refine all the ideas. and then you code it all in only once.
  • @BindMedia
    This is some incredible work that still feels like it could fit in Minecraft with very minor tweaking. I absolutely love the idea of reskinned normal swords that you can find in very specific circumstances, even if it's just like three or four different versions that come pre-baked with a certain enchantment (ie a Ghastly Blade that you find with fire aspect 2), that would make exploration that much more fun to find exclusive swords, and it would make display rooms way cooler
  • @jateg5506
    If this guy could create such a good update in 7 days just imagine what mojang could do in a year if they actually did their job

    Whimzee out of context, “could you imagine defeating a navy seal by eating a SlimJim?” 5:09
