I can’t explain how amazing it is to see such a genuine reaction to something that I spent so long on. Thank you so much Nate

This is so incredible. Most DSMP content is DSMP focused but Phil has such a unique background.

Also, thanks to fans, he could make an addon for his home to support his ill family (if you want to know more I'd suggest seeing his view, not react worthy but still important for context). He could afford to get a citizenship for his now wife. He could afford to marry Mumza. He could have the money to save his life, his family's lives, and his relationship. Fan support helped him move out of a paycheck to paycheck life to where he could help those he loved and be able to provide support. Fans gave him the money and he used the money to make friends and family financially stable.

“Exploring my old Minecraft World saves” by Philza would be some good closure for his world he lost.

38:15 Techno said that Tommy was a genius here. Tommy put himself in the role of the villain and thus enabled EVERYONE to create content based on that. He  literally became a plot device for SMP earth

“I’m not crying, you’re crying! You’re tearing up!” Loved this reaction Brotato Chip! Also I’m proud to be part of this community with you!

There's actually a happy ending to the Hardcore Series 1 hard drive failure. He got the hard drive fixed a year or two ago, and looked at the original world on stream. It's in his YT channel too, the vid "Exploring my old Minecraft World Saves" I think.

i think the thing about phil's story that gets me so much is that he literally would not have met his wife if it weren't for minecraft. if he wasn't streaming it when kristen was learning how to play the game they would have never came across each other. like that's fate and no one can tell me otherwise. it's so damn beautiful

Now ya watch Legend of Philza, now I can’t help but want ya to see Philza’s “THE BATTLE FOR ENDLANTIS”
That video is a clip from is hardcore season 4, you will be in for a ride🤣

you should react to when phil fixed his hard drive and visited his old worlds. its quite emotional

I didn't know about Philza or his story for a long while, mainly because I learned english around two or three years ago.

But he has grown to be one of my favorite creators of all time. I can't even explain why honestly. When I tell people why I like Tommy, it feels so easy. When I tell them why I like your channel it's easy. But when I need to describe why I like Phil, it's like- He is such a force of good, like a rock in the river. When I watch his streams, everything feels just so good and calm for a moment, like there's nothing I need to think about. Regardless what happens, be it his DSMP Lore or a funny moment with his friends, it feels like it's all so genuine and honest. And the community seems to agree with me. I think I haven't seen a single person that didn't grow to adore Dadza and his personality.
Generally the community around his channel and streams is so nice and so cool, we can all just have a good time without arguing. Of course there a bad people like in every community, but they get drowned out by all the amazing people that you can meet in comments, on reddit and discord, even on minecraft servers that don't have anything to do with him.

TLDR: Philza is an amazing content creator that manages to be a constant force of good in many peoples lives and stands in the middle of a community that can't be described as anything but amazing. I'm glad that I heard about Dream, because that was what spiraled me into watching Dream SMP and seeing all these amazing creators doing what they love.

If you read this far, thank you for your time and have a cookie! 🍪

Evan:..he ended...
Nate: 😟
Evan:...his successful...
Nate: 😊

Someone answer me, how the hell can a reaction channel so damn good not have more subs than this, he definitely deserves a couple million, these videos never fail to make me laugh or smile

when he died in his 5 year world philza had 2k subscribers! Thats more then a gem! Immagine this amazing world 2 videos w/ less then 5k viewers, it was such a hidden golden channel!

to be fair phil did not swim n the monuments in season 2, as there was no swimming mechanic in the game before 1.13? i believe! He ran through it!
Also another note to add that show the insanity of phil, he built sky city w/o elytra! When he finally got elytra the meta to fly was shoot urself w/ a punch 2 bow! Immagine that in hardcore, working in the sky no elytra and then only flying by shooting urself!

Wanted to watch the premiere but 7am was a push for me on a day off 😅 great reaction, truly Evans greatest video to date, Philza is the man!

Phil: First good hardcore map exist
Power outage: I'mma end this whole boys career

THIS IS SO EPIC AND COOL! ALSO I AM STILL CRYING-! EVAN TYSM FOR MAKING THIS! <3, BOSSMAN I REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR EDITING! ❤

These reaction are so good, keep up the good work Nate 👍

I love how authentic your reactions are and no worries I cried through this too. Also that story about having to edit from your phone is crazy, way to persevere. So glad you’re part of this community!

hey nate! i had been binging your videos over the past couple weeks and i've really enjoyed your reactions! you seem like such a friendly and chill guy! :D
so glad you got to react to this video, too! phil is an incredible person and he deserves all the support he's gotten over the years.

i'd definitely recommend watching his video he made of touring around his first minecraft worlds after he recovered his lost hard drive. it contains his very first minecraft world EVER, a server he made with his friends, as well as, of course, the hardcore world he lost! i think you'd enjoy the video a lot! [: either way, keep up the great work!
