I always thought the creepers were made by ancient players to serve as terraformers. I mean luring a creeper to a hill and detonating it is one of the easiest ways to clear land. The fact that iron golems don’t attack them also ties into this because players wouldn’t instruct their guards to kill a valuable mining machine, the same way you wouldn’t instruct a tank to shoot an excavator
@arandomperson9116 2 роки тому
I think if they did, they only improved or manipulated it, not making it from scratch. If they really built it as a tool, they wouldn't have made it try to stand so close to them before exploding. And no, they can't be malfunctioning. There are too many of them for that to be true.

@muyandos Рік тому
String is more used like hair in the minecraft world. Upon killing a strider, they drop string because they have wispy hair. With cats, them dropping string as a gift or as their loot could represent a hairball or whiskers. String is also able to be turned into wool blocks, which wool is sheep hair. Thus string as loot in the same chest as rotten flesh and bones most likely also represents hair.
@ooi97 Рік тому
I was guessing bandages, following the mummy analogue. And that cats just like playing with string, so it can sometimes be found on them. Imagine a children's game allowing to murder a cat and use it's whiskers as raw material...
@muyandos Рік тому
@@ooi97 mm, paper would have been better if they wanted to convey bandages because it looks similar. Though I guess mummy wraps are linen, and that’s made out of woven fibers, so you could be correct For the cat thing, there are many other questionable mob drops that don’t seem appropriate for a kids’ game, such as turtles dropping a bowl when struck by lightning or even just cows dropping leather. You don’t even need to tan it before using it. You just take their raw skin and make armor out of it!

I am still surprise that MatPat never mention that a fully active Beacon can fit perfectly in the top of a Desert Temple, which imply that the temples might've been built with a beacon in mind (which does hurt his Wither theory a little bit as it also imply that the builders knew how to get a Nether Star to some degree).

Something i just remembered regarding the cat connection to ancient Egypt is that in earlier versions cats were just tamed Ocelots, Which are essentially the kind of cats that domesticated the ancient Egyptians. Only after more development they added cats and made them separate from Ocelots which coincidentally further tells the real world story of cats domesticating/enslaving humans.
@ataeaproductions3390 3 роки тому
If the chests in temples store human remains like the Egyptians, that would explain the riches like diamonds and gold also found in the chests, as Ancient Egyptians were known to bury people of high stature with jewelry (and even food, like the golden apples.) idk I thought it was interesting and helps further this theory

This falls apart in a couple of places: creepers and ocelots are natural enemies, and cats used to be tamed ocelots before they were introduced in villages. Hence the fear of cats. The Mojang team actually wanted the eye of Horus on the temple but couldn't make it work that small, so the Ankh was 2nd choice. The string in chests along with the flesh, bones and gunpowder are the drops of the OG mobs: spider, skeleton, zombie and creeper. Didn't know about tnt inside the creeper. That does suggest they're man-made. But that's honestly the only clue along with the creeper face in chiseled sandstone. This man must do a lot of yoga to stretch this far.

I personally think it looks very similar to the Mesoamerican pyramids, but it's underwater.

The artificial creeper theory has to be correct and I have a theory of why the ancient builders did it. They may have wanted better security than a booby trap that destroys the valuables it's protecting when triggered, so they probably designed the creeper to be an extra set of protection but they managed to escape the deserts and explore the world. This means that for the builders the creepers ignored them but they attack us because they view us as hostile since they haven't been explicitly told that we are safe.

Theory: some of the fossils in the nether point towards the stronghold. The fossils are other ender dragons that invaded the nether and over world. They destroyed the parts of the nether fortress and parts of bastions where the ancient civilization lived. The dragons breath turned the crimson forest into warped forest. They were chased back to where they came from and some were killed. This left the fossils and explains why there isn’t more then one dragon yet the dragon still has an egg. This also explains how there is more then one dragon head.
@RandomGuy0400 3 роки тому
I mean, the dragon could always be a species that has only one gender and can reproduce asexually... Maybe they all have the ability to lay an egg and then fertilize it, but there are only two of them because their life cycle is weirdly timed and they can only have one child in their life... Maybe each dragon has its own little realm, maybe the ancient builders hunted them to the brink of extinction... There could be many reasons why there is only one dragon and egg...

there is a slight problem with this as creepers try to kill us , when we seem to be descendants of the builders , but it could be that since they seem to be robot bombs , maybe the illagers could have broke something? so they would be kind to villagers and illagers as it still recognizes them as builder descendants , well maybe just villagers , BUT they would see other descendants like us as a threat and try to protect , or they just forgot how their masters looked like , and would mistake us as a threat , or their workings failed causing them to be slightly aggressive

Here's another very important detail I thought of: If Illagers are descendants of the ancient civilization, that would mean villagers are too. You can find connections to this inside of villages. For one, villages are the only places in the game that contain stray cats. Also, creepers are one of the only common hostile mobs that iron golems avoid.
@themisfitowl2595 3 роки тому
Iron Golems avoid Creepers??? That might be proof that the Creepers were connected to the Ancient Builders just like the Iron Golems are! Both constructs to attack or defend.

@scootergrant8683 2 роки тому
@@themisfitowl2595 Matpat already showed Iron Golems were pre created for protection by the ancient peoples. This could be enforced by a theory of mine that bases off creepers: If you look at the list of things iron golems attack, it includes many things that they don't see on the overworld. Including tons of other mobs. This enforced Matpat's theory that they have been made to protect the ancient people by the ancient peoples. This is because villagers don't come under attack from things like blazes so why would iron golems attack blazes if they haven't seen them. So what about creepers. Well if they have been created by the desert dwelling form of their people, maybe they were only successful with making the creeper after the programming of the iron golem which means it wouldn't see them as a threat whilst zombies, which we assume come from a virus that has been around for eons, are pre programmed as a threat.

So, there’s a couple things I’d like to point out. 1. Creepers are not the only mob afraid of cats. Phantoms are as well. 2. The only thing a creeper attacks is the player, unless a skeleton shoots it or something. 3. Cats also hiss, like creepers I used to think creepers were blind. When a cat hisses, the creeper is scared because it thinks it’s another creeper, as it can’t see that it is indeed a cat.

(Explanations the phantoms running away they’re waking nightmares) So creepers running away my because of that.
