okay I'll bite. what's the deal with the life series. what's the lore. what's your favorite thing about it. I wanna understand the Posts
huge win for the me community let's go. okay. idk your minecraft knowledge level so i am going to explain as though it's zero bc mine was basically zero when i started watching.
so. the life series (also known as 3rd life, bc that's the first season) is a minecraft survival multiplayer series, which essentially means it's a server where you can die. in fact, it is a death game! everyone on the server has three lives; if you die three times, you're out of the series. your goal is to be the last one standing. additionally, when you're down to your last life, you are expected and honor-bound to engage in pvp and ruin your alliances. your goal is Murder.
there are five seasons out right now with different gimmicks, each one has the same core cast with some changes - essentially it's a bunch of friends who will take any excuse to kill each other, but with increasingly weird and complex political factions and interpersonal dynamics. people are out here swearing fealty. there are betrayals. there are team banners. there's a season where they build a complex net of paths in the sky and drop tnt on one another.
it's one of those things where there is some lore/plot and you can take it as seriously or not-seriously as you want! yay! i for one love to go the "let's take this to its logical horrifying conclusion" route but some people are here for the sillies and that's good too. the fanart game is insane, people are making renaissance paintings and stuff.
anyways, this explanation is a mess, so i will go on to reccing povs, because there are ~15 people in each season and they're all posting videos and that can get overwhelming! there's not really a "right" order but when i started, @charaznablescanontoyota gave me the excellent advice of "start with the winner of each season and then whenever you're curious about something watch that next" - if you like that route and don't mind knowing who wins,
er4df444444444444 sorry that's my cat. he's been watching along with me. he has a lot of opinions.
anyways here's the list of winners, the wiki is a pretty good reference to have on hand. HOWEVER. i will also add that everyone has a different style! some people edit things very short, some people do long videos, some people are builders and some are very into the roleplay - i bounced pretty hard off the first pov i watched but switching to someone else worked for me, so in a way having so many options is great bc it means you can shop around, so to speak.
and i will close this out with a few of my personal favorite seasons! just for funsies.
inthelittlewood 3rd life (s1) - probably my personal fave. in which an early game alliance becomes an intensely charged king/knight relationship that they both take WAY too seriously (honorific)
smallishbeans last life (s2) - have you ever wanted to watch someone do a very, very bad job at murdering a lot of people?
pearlescentmoon double life (s3) - in a season where everyone has canonical soulmates, pearl ends up the odd woman out because her soulmate doesn't want to be with her. it is an insane and compelling character arc
ldshadowlady secret life (s5) - diversity win! this woman is so so bad at "what if minecraft were taskmaster"
and as a side note i tend to prefer the tightly edited stuff, so if you know that you Do Not prefer that, i would point you towards ethoslab secret life or grian 3rd life! or tbh still towards pearl double life.
#waveridden.ask#clonerightsenthusiast#life tag#CREWE THIS IS SO LONG I'M SO SORRY SHDKLFHSFS#i hope you don't mind me publishing it. i just figure you are probably Not the only person confused by my posts#if you had told me like six months ago i'd be a mcyt girlie i would be really really skeptical but like it's fun#i once heard life series described as a surrealist reality tv competition and that stuck with me#ETA I just realized i didn’t directly say my favorite thing about it. if this does not get the vibe across just hmu again#i am happy to get into it

hmmmmm how about "bear" in your WIP

May just snorts. “I could beat them both in a slap fight,” she answers. “But only after we finish our pizza.”

(To The) Edge from Final Fantasy XIV I'm aware I very much cheated on to the edge but in my defense, I have surprisingly few songs starting with E among songs I usually listen to and I didn't want to double up on Hozier with Eat Your Young. Anyway @murderandcoffee thank you for the ping! Hope some songs among these are new to you and you find fun. if @snaps-wexley @clonerightsenthusiast or anyone else seeing this wants to go for this, please do, I like seeing people's music!

@clonerightsenthusiast replied: fascinated by the concept of an all stars season of a series with a largely static cast I must know more
YOU'RE IN LUCK. because i have finished my dinner and i am sitting down and i am thinking about it
two of the first things i saw about the life series, which have become surprisingly key to the way i think about it, were a tweet from a friend referring to it as absurdist reality tv and a fic prompt for an exchange that said "do people remember anything between seasons" which is always incredibly fun to me to think about - it's one of those quantum-canon things where the answer to that question is whatever i want it to be
BUT. let me propose to you. what if they don't remember anything from across seasons. each season has a static cast, sure, but with unique relationships and dynamics and even gimmicks that shape the characters. 3rd life scar and secret life scar are both scar, sure, but they don't behave the same way, as a product of both the social dynamics of their seasons And the actual mechanics of the games that they're playing. and that's to say nothing of the way that relationship dynamics can be totally different
my proposal: you have been in a death game. you have lived, or died, in that game. and then you wake up in another one where the gimmick is that you are surrounded by people you know who are actually people you don't know. people who think of you in a fundamentally different way than you think of them. maybe (probably) there's a further game mechanic but idk i'm a character relationships person first and a plot person, like, eighth.
i have a personal list (that i'll probably post in a separate reblog in a second just for kicks) but it's also fun to ask like. let's assume that of all the 18 players, you get one iteration of each person. what is the most iconic skizz, or cleo, or martyn? what happens when you put, for example, double life pearl and last life scott in the same server? how does that shake out? what are the factions?
life series all-stars: the advanced torment nexus
actually i do want to talk about life series all stars
#waveridden.txt#life tag#this has been my fun brain project when i'm bored. there's not a plot just vibes
