Minecraft player spends three years building a gothic castle

Minecraft players have always surprised the community with some brilliant builds. Some players have gone on to build extremely complicated structures using Redstone, such as working computers and calculators. Some have even built games inside the game. Other master builders put up large-scale structures such as castles, and fictional cities from popular movies and TV shows. And now, one more structure has been added to this list.

A Minecraft player and Reddit user named Disastrous_Client_68 shared a video clip on the game's subreddit showing a large structure they had built in the game. The video shows an impressively large gothic castle having everything one would expect from one. According to the original poster, it took them three years to build the entire structure.

While the community reacted positively to the build, many users pointed out how the video was poorly made with fast movements and jittery cuts that were borderline nauseating. User CMDRgermanTHX commented that the build was amazing, but said the original poster needs to work on its video skills. They also mentioned how the interior structure of the castle makes it even more impressive.

Another user named csupihun believed that the original poster should try making a slower and methodical showcase video instead of just flying around the castle at high speeds. User Humor-machine stayed true to their name and jokingly commented that this is what Hermitcraft players built on day 1 as their starter base.

User Alternative0Bit commented that the build was amazing, while user pastelsensei asked if there was a way to download the map as they found it very cool.

Unfortunately, the original poster did not reply to the comment. Even user spellz 69 asked for a map of the world. User Automatic_Lie9517 said that it would take them around 40 years to build a similar structure and congratulated the original poster for their great work.

Another user named VedrfoInirsVision looked to help the original poster by suggesting how to make Minecraft videos. They commented that using the Cinematic Camera or even the Replay mod would be a great way of filming the castle. They also complimented the structure and told the original poster how it gave them a fantasy-medieval vibe which they really liked.

The original poster replied to this comment saying they did not know about the cinematic camera. As for the Replay mod, the poster did not use it as it would not load the chunks the way they wanted to.

Brilliant builds in Minecraft

This is not the first time someone has built something impressive in the game. Recently, another player constructed the Shiganshina district from the popular anime series Attack on Titan taking the game’s community by storm. It was very accurately built and was also turned into a map that players can download. Apart from this, players have built a working Minesweeper game inside the game, and even a Rubik’s Cube that can be scrambled and solved.
