The depicted addiction is gambling. Sometimes the hermits will make gambling-based games, and often the players will comment about wasting money. Keralis and Bdubs are the most likely to not stop.
Aggressive mobs, a handful of which resemble real-life animals. There are also livestock animals, especially pigs and cows, that are farmed. Typically once a farm is built they stop killing passive mobs on-screen.
Yes. Not only is it Minecraft so the players must often kill rabbits for food, in season 5 a specific rabbit is killed to free Xisuma and Rendog from its mind control.
There is generally less risk of this happening than in other Minecraft playthroughs; however the pets that do die tend to have mini plot arcs focused around them.
The Ender Dragon is killed in every season, and sometimes it is resummoned and killed again. This is often a server-wide event completed at the start of the season.
There was a dare done during Hermitcraft Season 6 Demise in which various Hermits had to break their way out of an underwater tank. Some of them did drown. This was voluntary and they were not held there.
Does not happen often. A piston pushing a solid block into the upper half of a player's body will cause them to take damage, but usually they get out before death.
During the Empires and Hermitcraft crossover, Rendog is found to have been buried under Pixlriff's ancient capital. This is nongraphic and played off as a joke.
Occasionally the Hermits will "torture" each other in the form of pranks; some of these mimic IRL torture techniques but are non-graphic and there is no actual distress caused.
Joehills' streams feature a recurring bit in which their face camera gradually takes up more of the screen as people tip, lowering the opacity as he does. This has led to the creation of the "Jhost" (Joe Ghost, i.e lower opacity camera) and, after a certain tipping milestone has been reached, the "Beetlejhost" (reference to the movie Beetlejuice). In this second stage a blue-green grainy filter is applied over Joe's facecam and they will speak in a gravelly ghostly voice for extended periods of time.
Both Jhost and Beetlejhost are characters played for laughs, but they are referred to as and intended to be seen as ghosts so I thought I'd mention them.
There are armour stands which can be used to simulate players but they aren't realistic. Just a Minecraft structure made of wood that can take heads and items.
Goodtimeswithscar sometimes talks about Top Gun as one of his favorite movies. s6 "Area 77" arc has a whole "hippies vs a77" dynamic, but they interact via pranks and scar and doc dont excessively make themselves out to be the good guys.
All types of "self harm" aren't treated as such. An example would be a Hermit needs their head to drop as an item so they might try to kill themselves in game with an arrow or ask someone to do it however it's treated as just getting an item in the game for another purpose.
I mean theres a high likely hood that out of the 27 people currently on hermitcraft one of them has a mental illness, and all of them partake in violence
Minecraft is a first-person game with mild view bobbing as a default option and not every Hermit chooses to turn it off. It never gets to the level of "typical" shaky cam but they may occasionally rapidly change where they're looking or shift to a third-person point of view, which could cause similar eye strain/disorientation issues.
On videos and in recordings, Hermitcraft is a strictly family-friendly server and in one specific case, a swear was bleeped/edited out of the episodes. On livestreams, most of the Hermits stick to that, but creators such as Docm77, ZombieCleo, and iJevin have sworn on stream before.
To those who are affected by flashing lights, please be aware that in Mumbo's Hermitcraft Season 6 series (and most likely before), he records sped-up timelapses in first person. These contain many such flashing lights and may hurt the eyes.
Occasionally, (Iskall in s6, ex.) the men on the server will wear dresses or feminine clothing. Sometimes there are jokes, (teasing him about not knowing the Wizard of Oz), but the clothing itself is not the butt of it.
there are lgbt people on the server who do 'die' sometimes; but everyone is imortal; and itt very clearly not becuse cleo and gem are bi that they ever die.
This one is tricky. Scar, the content creator, not the character (though his character is commonly depicted as so) does have a chronic illness. He talks about it in both videos and streams.
in season 5 cub and scar leave by space ship; as does false in s8. bolth of them end up crashing off screen. in s6 cub and scar investigate their crashed space ship
Cleo occasionally builds armor stand art and has done very stylized depictions of someone being run over by a car in Season 6 and a minecart in Season 9. Neither of these are particularly graphic renditions, as armor stands do not have dynamic facial expressions.
