4:10 "What? There's another skycraper back there? I never noticed that before."

- The man who built the skyscraper back there

12:41 Just a reminder that you said at the start of the city project if you ever chickened out and cloned a building, you owe Grian all of your diamonds.

what this town is really missing is a luxury apartment block, where the rich elite that ruined the city lived before the apocalypse hit. You know, luxurious penthouse suites etc.

Mumbo: [spends hours agonizing over the subtlest aesthetic details of the forced perspective in a complex 3D architectural visualization of a de novo cityscape that serves an essential role in the visual storytelling underlying the lore-dense speculative fiction narrative he's putting together for the season]

Also Mumbo: “but it's not like this is art or anything”

Mumbo, i would definately consider minecraft an art.

Grian joins unannounced and immediately whips out the "WHAT DOIN" 😭

can't wait for mumbo to make an entire one-to-one replica of Europe next season!

Don't sell yourself short just because your medium is a block game.  This is definitely still art.

mumbo couldn't write grapes of wrath, but steinbeck couldn't have built a minecraft city either

Mumbo, if Steinbeck knew that nearly 10 million people were "subscribed" to his writings, it would have humbled him greatly, and terrified him. To put it into perspective, when Grapes of Wrath won the nobel prize, it had probably sold roughly 2.1 million copies. This video, 14 hours old, has nearly 700,000 views.

Mumbo’s approach to building this season is genuinely my favorite to watch

“I’m not elevating these Minecraft builds to the level of art” bro I am. Even if it was a mediocre or straight up bad build (which it ABSOLUTELY isn’t, this man has too much talent), building something in Minecraft is art in every sense of the word.

mumbo is truly THE all-rounder this season, he’s a redstoner, photographer, builder, C-Team member, fireman, EGG bartender, bank vault maker and now civil engineer

The changes on the big tower helped it so much! Another thing is: the big tower needs some sort of point or top flourish, so it feels like it’s really reaching up into the sky. The flat top makes it seem just like the other towers, and doesn’t enhance the feeling of ‘reaching upwards’ which can make it seem more grand. Fantastic video as always, and definitely agree with the wise words of wisdom when working on creative projects.

24:38 If this isn't art, then art cannot exist within Minecraft. This is in every way the same thoughts, process, and trials as any other artist. Whether it's words, paint, notes, or voxels matters not one jot.

This must have taken at LEAST 2 baguettes

everyone talks about the end update, everyone talks about adding more biomes, everyone talks about more mounts, NO ONE talks about how iron bars still clip. we cant keep living like this

I would LOVE if Mumbo would make the billboards animated somehow. So it looks like a scrolling LED sign around the building.

On the left hand red-topped tower, you may want to change the words so that they are facing toward the right. With both of the towers having their white words facing in the same direction, it makes it feel focused unnaturally in one single direction. The city feels weirdly like it's facing one way, instead of looking out in all directions.

Love the video as always!

Can we please talk about all the AMAZING references to prior seasons here at 24:11? Sahara coin, Grumbot insteuctions, a manual for his IDEA store, Mumbo for Mayor, the Furihorse key, the grian catastrophe report. Like so many amazing references are made here
