Vibes vibes vibes vibes

Hecko!

It's time for your obligatory Minecraft drama update!!! NO YOU CAN'T LEAVE YOU ALREADY CLICKED THE THREAD!

And this time it doesn't involve your truly (for once)

Today's story starts a couple months back in November 2024

Let me introduce you to Iskall85

Iskall85 is a popular Swedish Minecraft Youtuber, whos been making YouTube videos since 2006. In fact he was an original playtester for Minecraft, even having his MC account personally gifted to him by the games creator (and /r/drama mod) Notch!

Iskall is most known for Minecraft videos on the 'Hermitcraft' Server, which is a collaborative private survival server which several YouTubers are part of and make videos on. Some of the Popular YouTubers who play are MumboJumbo, Grian, Ethoslab ect.

In fact Iskall was one of the more popular members with his Hermitcraft episodes regularly clocking above 400k views each, and rightfully so as he had been making content on the server as a member since 'Season 4' (Feb 2016), That's nearly a decade of content being made with his fellow members.

And it's worth noting for those unaware, that Hermitcraft is extremely culturally prominent within Minecraft as a whole. They are friends with a lot of the development staff, probably have played a small hand in suggesting new features for the game. And generally very highly respected in the Minecraft space.

(especially in compared to their other Minecraft YouTuber contemporaries like that fricking butthole Gerg)

Hermitcraft also presents itself as everyone involved not just being collogues but genuine friends off camera as well. WHOLESOME CHUNGUS

So it came to everyone as a massive shock when the Official Hermitcraft X account posted this vague update that Iskall85 has resigned from Hermitcraft after some mysterious "allegations" (As well as another member called Stressmonster, but more on her later)

NOW I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE ALL THINKING!!!! What would make his long term friends and colleagues drop him like a fricking BRICK so suddenly! It has to be really fricking bad.

Oh.... Well that's a change for once.

But have no fear, white ran through foids are here!

A few hours later, these private complains became public with the release of "Kass' Statement".

Who is Kass? Some 30 year old mod of Iskall's groomercord server. Here's a link

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1paBcGkIfDWCyHcxhDrdhEGGvtpJL8yAqBR3HCKNK7DU/edit?tab=t.0

Now I know you dramatards, You hate reading EFFORTPOST? MORE LIKE BORING POST!

Basically Iskall85 flirted with this b-word in dm's (HOW DARE HE!)

Even after flirting with her, she never said stop, or im not into you.

In-fact Iskall asks her to get Skype so he can continue being flirty and she obliges (Clear manipulation from a position of power)

And despite this foid complaining that hes being heckin sexually active towards her, she then complains that he STOPPED messaging her

Somehow she paints this as manipulative evil behavior that BREAKS HER.... and she's right #BelieveAllWomen #Gerg2025YearOfGerg

A couple other statements were made by anonymous accounts, but confirmed by the female making the first statement (NON SUS AT ALL)

https://pastebin.com/Ln3nVRkq (BORING TEXT SAYS NOTHING WORTHWHILE, JUST ISKALL IS LE BAD)

https://x.com/starssoul0808/status/1860827397534159283 (DELETED TWEET LITTERALLY AS IM WRITING THIS!!!)

(from archive.is)

If your asking if that's it? Yep! that's it!

That evil fricker Iskall forgot his fricking place as a Minecraft Youtuber. YOU WILL NOT HAVE S*X, YOU ARE KEN DOLL

In response what did his long time 'friends' and fellow youtubers do in response to this silly claim of what he does in private?

IMMEDIATLY DROP HIS BUTT!

they gave him 90 mins to respond upon receiving the messages to which Iskall didn't and then dropped him from all branding and the server.

• -MumboJumbo recalled Merchandise featuring references to him

-An episode of a podcast he was on was deleted.

-And Grian (another member) Changed The title and thumbnail of the last 6 YEARS of videos to remove any reference or image of Iskall.

• The final reveal when this all went down was that Stressmonster (That other youtuber that quit when he was removed) was most likely fricking Iskall behind the scenes, people found out that her name was also registered to the same residential property as Iskall in Sweden (Shes from the UK)

So many people assumed she left because she found out Iskall had been cheating on her with groomercord mods of all people.

And that's where it laid. UNTIL LIKE 6 HOURS AGO!

iskall uploaded this video "I was Cancelled"

Where he complains about he's cancellation, reveals the 90 min time limit they gave him, as well as some problems it caused for other projects he had going on.

The biggest question was in the comments though

Stressmonster is defending him? Which MAKES THE WHOLE SITUATION EVEN STRANGER???? WHY DID SHE QUIT THEN?

Why did hermitcraft (which i will remind you he worked with for nearly a decade) DROP HIM SO FAST!

Minecraft is full of autism truly.

Time for the xitter seethe

stopped 35 seconds in.

iskall85, you are a sick man. you are nearly 40 years old and yet you cannot take responsibility NOR accountability for your actions. quit painting yourself as the victim. you abused your power over your victims. stop acting like you didnt pic.twitter.com/dvkbq1URrc

YOU ARE A SICK MAN FOR WANTING TO FRICK A WHITE WOMEN

I mean he does have a point

#iskall85 "this cancel culture of guilty until proven innocent gives too much power to the wrong people"

— Moon (@Moonlight2095) January 31, 2025

We shouldent do guilty until proven innocent

But you didnt prove your innocent though

Absolutely disgusting behavior. I hope all victims may find their peace and iskall85 should GO TO HECK jesus fricking christ https://t.co/goQJvrE73r

Victims

OH GOD I HAD TO SEE A FAT PERSONS LUST. KILL HIM WITH FIRE

I agree !thin has my back

What do you think dramasisters?

This would have never happened to him if he wasn't fat and also gay. Straggots cant help themselves.

Minecraft Autism prevails above all else.

The Ukrainians are again attempting offensive operations in the Kursk region utilizing around 350 personnel and upwards of 50 armored vehicles including mine clearing equipment.

The result are exactly what we’d expect. pic.twitter.com/6qqyJ91cyP

This should be a prioritised for Ukraine since they again got them selves in another pocket

I frequently mention in front of my straight white male husband that straight white men need a tall collective glass of shut the frick up and listen.

He agrees and mostly does. I meet him in the middle and only watch about a half hour of news/commentary a day. Let's face it, whatever comes about with Sweet Potato Hitlers plans, he will be impacted the least of the two of us. He is with me when I'm crying for the fear and pain of this time and I'm with him as he finds how horribly deep the rabbit hole goes. He knows he'll never be able to fully be in my position or the position of the Navajo who are being detained.

But he listens.

Have any of you heard of Unknown 9?

If you haven't- I don't blame you. I haven't either. Apparently it's a 4-month old game developed by Reflector Entertainment who also made... uhh this game and it's DLCs.

This screenshot gives a lot away but fear not, it was published by Bandai Namco, the guys who made the Dark Souls^TM of videogames These guys know a good investment when they see it, and at 50 eurobucks (USD to EUR is almost 1:1 at the time of writing !eurochads), a price comparable to that of God of War 2022 (50 EUR, 95% rating), HOI 4 (50 EUR, 90% rating) and Mount & Blade: Bannerlord II *editor's note: why are there so many MLP emojis when querying 'horse' (50 EUR, 87% rating(should be 100)), it is sure to deliver the same experience, right?

Well, from the screenshot you might have noticed that the ratings are mediocre: 49%. But that does not tell the whole story.

Unknown 9 currently has 7 concurrent players , 11 player 24-hour peak and a 285-player all-time peak [1]. This means it is mogged by the likes of Gollum 2023 at 758 all-time high [2], 6 year old rockstar game Red Dead: Redemption 2 at almost double the rating [3], a 2023 unity slavshit game Contraband Police at almost double the rating and half the price [4] and absolutely mogged by LEWDAPOCALYPSE, which has double the concurrent players, double the rating, and 1/50th of the price [5].

IGN gave Unknown 9 a 9(-4) rating [6], so is it really that bad?

Looks pretty bad, but is this the lowest we can go? Just some failed garbage from an upcoming studio, but is that it? Can't we do worse?

Heck no! It was in the works for at least 4 years, and was supposed to be a tans-media project, "including video games , film , and books (!bookworms), for example. Unknown 9 was conceptualized as an ongoing series, spanning podcasts , comics , and even a web series , many of which have already been released." [7]. So you've been laughing at Concord for having an Amazon episode despite being a dead game- well, you've seen nothing yet kid. This shit was supposed to be massive, at least according to the cited source (I didn't check further (yes how could you tell, I work in academia )). It was supposed to be the next fricking star wars by the looks of things, expecting to bank on their notoriety to create the equivalent to Netflix's Witcher [7] (which is not something to be proud of tbh). While we have no numbers on the project costs, one might imagine that a AAA game with massive marketing like that would've cost a lot. While we do not know how much exactly the project did cost, it is hardly believable that some unknown studio with 0 releases might have funded it. Indeed, the studio is owned by the publishers- Bandai Namco, who can probably afford to throw money around [8]. Looking at their website and LinkedIn is pretty funny as well, considering that they have announced that they will cease support for the game [8].

But you don't have to trust me, you can view the official gameplay trailer posted on Playstation's account and come to your own conclusions:

The lore/narrative trailer, which is just as stupid, can be found at

TL;DR?

Well, it's about a brown woman with supernatural abilities . Kind of like Forespoken from 1 2 years ago if anyone remembers that.

"Unfortunately, part of Hoerdt's statement confirmed several staff members would be made redundant, including back-office employees, and given severance packages, further health benefits, access to counseling services, and "proactive" career planning support." [7]. Lmao imagine getting free counselling from a company that fired you. I would probably take that as an insult, equivalent to one of those "reddit cares" messages . One might accuse me of using a chuddy source, but the same website compliments Unknown 9's use of "stepping powers", which states that "Stepping is the ability to project one's mind into the consciousness of another, by way of the Fold. While Stepping, one has access to the weaponry, strength, and intellect of a given vessel, and may fully control their actions." [9]. A totally true statement which has never been done before.

Here's Cr1tikal AKA Charlie AKA penguinz0 explaining it probably better than I do (it's the weekend and I've had several drinks already ):

He quotes the investment value into the IP at 100 million $ [citation needed]

In conclusion: 1) gaming in 2025 is dead, do not bother. 2) Nominative Determinism is true- the game was titled Unknown 9, and it remained unknown. For anyone running any sort of business- watch what you name your product.

Loving every minute of it. Just laughing at everyone losing their minds. Acting as if Kamala would not have done anything different than Biden did. Sometimes you need chaos. Sometimes its a good thing. (-69)

Voter turnout for this election was 58%, which is about on par with every presidential election. Around 40% of the country never cares about voting.I know several people who are in this 40%, and asked them why, and it basically always comes down to the fact that they think their vote doesn't matter. (19461)

My husband has never registered to vote. His answer is "All politicians suck. It doesn't matter who's in charge." (390)

Still fine with it.Happy we are finally addressing all the illegal immigration and DEI stuff.As far as the trade wars meh, I wasn't impacted last time and most of it is bluster considering he's meeting with Traduea today while they go into effect tomorrow. Honestly makes it easy for swing trading.  (-51)

Angriest Comments

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

While I did vote this time around, I didn't vote in 2020. Of course this all feels bad. But... it's always bad. No, this isn't saying, "the dems are equal as bad as the republicans." This is me saying that US republicans are such a fricking low bar that being "better" than them could still mean you are absolutely abysmal. Let's call this what it is: Trump is the imperial boomerang flying back home. And while it's going to make things worse for everyone, it has always disheartened me -- and often infuriated me -- how many people in the US won't care about the terrible things a US president is doing unless it's happening to them personally. Many so-called "progressives" will absolutely be progressive about certain things, but in many other ways they are the same old imperial conservatives that republicans are. Ruth Bader Ginsberg, heralded as being "so progressive," used the doctrine of discovery to deny the Oneida claims to their ancestral lands. Detention, abuse during detention, an... (1)

Since I have been allowed to vote I have watch the DNC overflow with obvious corruption. My first election I supported Bernie, and then I watch as the DNC used "super delegates" to completely screw Bernie and rig the primary so obviously. It was blatant corruption to promote one of the another very evil elitist, Hillary who was friends Epstein and she's the queen of Wall Street. I hate Wall Street. The priorities of Wall Street have always been at odds with what is good for the American people. No one ever brings this up anymore. It's like ancient history now, but Bernie won a large majority of the delegates that are assigned by popular vote, but got screwed by the "superdelegates" who can make sure what happens is "good for the party". Right there my very first time voting I watched as the party of "good guys" said "we don't actually give a frick what you want." Then the next election was Joe Biden. Are you fricking kidding me. The same bullshit about lesser of two evils and all this... (1)

Honestly, man.I voted for Gary Johnson back in 2016. In 2020, I would've voted for Tulsi Gabbard, but she didn't make the cut for the Dems. I instead voted for Jo Jorgensen.This cycle, I just didn't vote. No one on any side had any good policies and were panning on sensationalism.I don't feel indifferent, I just feel disappointed that this is the best we could come up with. You either get incompetent democrats or you get corporate owned Republicans.At no point do I enjoy what I see. We have a spending problem. We have a housing crisis. Government keeps declining the quality of education and healthcare. We have a border and national security issue. Our government is way too big, and way too powerful. If they can't tax you, they'll hit you with fees, and if you don't pay the fees, they'll fine you. You can't own or build anything without permits, which is just paid permission. Corporations aren't taxed; they're using loop holes. The ultra wealthy stashes their money in untouchable tru... (3)
