On the way there, Barry gets shot by a skeleton, which causes his boots to break. After passing the "tent," McJones leads the rest of the team to the old house using his map, while Jon leaves a trail of torches. McJones digs through a mountain so they don't have to climb over it. Just before returning to the new house, the team encounter and kill two endermen, getting an ender pearl in the process.

The team arrives at the old house and gathers all the important materials that they left there. Dean works a little more on his house expansion, despite being told by the rest of the group that they are only stopping temporarily and will likely never come back. The team departs from the old house for the last time after collecting the materials that they left there. As they head back to the new house, Dean mentions that he can't believe that Soah died so early, and Jon adds that he was being uncautious. Austin states that you can't flirt with life in Minecraft because you'll die, and he ends up making a joke about how you can flirt with other people's lives, and that when you flirt with girls, you make babies.

The team returns to the new house. Just before getting back, McJones finds a cave, and Dean decides to explore it by himself. Jon makes some renovations to the outside of the house, and everyone makes fun of his renovations for some reason. While exploring the cave, Dean gets knocked off a cliff by some creeper explosions and almost dies. McJones and Barry come to rescue Dean after building a Nether portal. McJones and Barry fight and kill an enderman with Austin after heading back from the cave, while Jon continues renovating the house and Dean makes his way out of the cave.

Terraria Hardcore - Season 1, Episode 6

**Terraria HC #1! - Part 6 (OOPS!)** is an episode in Season 1 of Terraria Hardcore. In the episode, the remaining players gear up and upgrade their equipment.

## Summary

The episode begins with PBG and Jeff heading back to the house while Jon is disconnected. On their way back, PBG equips a Warding Shackle and Dean's Lethargic Blowpipe. PBG is relieved that they all have spears now, because they make dealing with zombies easier. Jeff is glad that there are fewer people to gear up. PBG states that having Paul on is cool because he gets to use his face from the Continue? logo. Jon reconnects, and the group makes stronger armor out of the ore they gathered, so that maybe they won't die painful and embarrassing deaths; Jon also does whatever it is that he does. Jeff asks for the rest of PBG's copper, and Jon kills bunnies with shurikens. Jeff gives Jon a Claymore.

The three players head off to the right to find more chests and caves to explore, and to find the stuff to summon the first boss with. The group finds a small cave with nothing in it except a few pots. They find another cave, where Jon takes a fall into a hole with a slime, which nearly kills him. PBG lights up the cave for Jon, allowing him to kill the slime more easily. They find this cave also ends in a dead end. Jon finds a little bit of copper on the surface, which PBG mines. The group finds a third cave, which brings them back to the surface when going through it. PBG explains how Terraria scares him while Jeff mines some iron. The three of them then reach a desert, where Jon immediately kills a worm. Deeper in the desert, Jon kills a vulture, and PBG and Jeff kill another one. The group finds another small cave, and Jon falls down another hole. PBG tells Jon to look before he leaps, and Jon rebuttals that that's how a cautious person would play and that he's not that.

The group reaches The Corruption, and encounter some Corruption enemies. Jeff decides that they should probably retreat; PBG and Jeff do so, while Jon heads towards The Corruption. The enemies attack Jeff, but he survives. Jon also takes damage, but he disconnects again before they can kill him. The group then returns to the house.

Minecraft Hardcore - Season 2, Episode 7

**Minecraft HC #2! - Part 7 (Kyrak Furniture!)** is an episode in Season 2 of Minecraft Hardcore. In the episode, the group begins to armor up, and PBG, Tim, McJones, and Barry explore a ravine.

## Summary

Barry decides to make some iron chestplate, and Tim, McJones, and PBG are down mining, separately. McJones finds a ravine filled with lava, however, sine he's alone, he decides tht he wants to return to it with someone. PBG digs through some gravel, and tries to get flint. The group then starts singing the Flintstones theme, off key: the pinnacle of quality entertainment. Barry says "shit", which offends PBG, as this is not a show where they curse, leading to everone saying "shoot" instead. Jared announces that he has soup.

Barry asks who wants chestplates. Kyrak pleads for one, but PBG says not to give one to him. Jared asks Kyrak to sort the chests, and Kyrak tells everyone to give them all their iron so that he can smelt it, and that he'll sit there with all the other furniture. Jared asks if Kyrak just compared himself to furniture, because furniture has a more reliable internet connection than Kyrak right now; Kyrak agrees.

Barry hands out chestplates to McJones and Jared, while leaving on for himself. McJones gives PBG his leather chestplate, and Jared a map. McJones explains to Jared that they should be able to see each other on their maps, and that he can expand it if need be. PBG makes himself an iron chestplate, and gives the leather chestplate to Tim. Kyrak announces that the house is his armor. McJones gathers people to go down to the ravine with him, and Jared goes off on his own adventure.

PBG, Barry, McJones, and Tim go down to the ravine. On his way down, Barry reads a sign placed above the mine, stating that that one's for him. Once they get to the ravine, they block off some water on an obsidian platform. McJones, Barry, and PBG head over to a safer part of the ravine, where the floor isn't made of lava while Tim stays on the obsidian platform. The group finds a lot of iron in the part of the ravine they ventured to. After mining it all, McJones, PBG, and Tim head to the other side of the ravine, while Barry heads to a higher part of the ravine. The group tries to spot Barry, while Barry warns them of various mobs above them.

## Summary

PBG heads back into the mine to mine the Diamonds he found in the previous episode. PBG wants to make a sword for himself, but McJones points out that the first thing they should make with Diamonds is a pickaxe. PBG jokes about making a chestplate first, and the group jokes about how bad of an idea that is. Meanwhile, Jon is adding supports for their roof so that it doesn't collapse. Jared, however, is trying to take it down, because it makes it difficult to walk around. Jared then has a change of heart, and lets Jon do whatever he wants to the hose, because he wants to see his creativity come to life, allowing Jon to place a cobblestone fixture in the middle of the house. The group then jokes about people dying in the news. Jon asks for a bucket as Jared is killing zombies outside.

Jared goes off exploring around the house and, while doing so, makes a bad joke. Everyone then decides they want to vote Jared off the show, and start bullying Jared for the joke. Jared then enthusiastically finds a potato. The group notices Smooth McGroove has several arrows sticking out of him. Outside the door, there is a zombie with a Creeper behind him; Smooth McGroove opens the door to kill the zombie, then quickly shuts it. Jon opens the door to let the Creeper inside. PBG ducks into the Mineshaft, then the Creeper explodes, destroying the front wall of the house. The group repairs the wall with dirt, and Dean and McJones return from their mining adventure to allow PBG to give McJones the Diamond Pickaxe.

Jon builds a staircase leading to the roof from the outside of the house; he claims that he's making a sweet thing that no oone else can know about. PBG is planning on going on an adventure, so he asks to make a compass or a map. Jared joins Smooth McGroove in his mineshaft, and says he likes it because of how wide it is. PBG tries to pressure McJones into giving him his pants. PBG and Shane go off on an adventure together. Dean points out that he has a graphical mod that makes it so that when he's recording, every block's a giant dick; PBG clims he has the same mod, and states that he thought that was obvious.

The group appreciates their chickens, and PBG asks when they get to kill them. Barry breeds the chickens. Meanwhile, McJones is making Bookshelves and Potions. The group begins to build Tim's grave, and McJones blames himself for his death. After building the grave, PBG holds a memorial for all of their fallen friends, and reads off their gravestones. After reading off Tim's grave, PBG hopes that they don't join them, and a Creeper sneaks up on Barry as he's adding flowers to the front of the graves.

The group goes inside to kill chickens, and kill all the adults. They attempt not to kill any of the babies, but McJones accidentally kills one. PBG enchants his sword, and gets Bane of Arthropods I; he then enchants his Iron Chestplate and Iron Legging, and gets Protection II and Protection I respectively. McJones tells PBG to do the lowest level enchantment on another Diamond Sword, since he can get something better than Bane of Arthropods, but just get Bane of Arthropods I and Knockback I, which is arguably worse than his first sword. McJones gives the group Night Vision Potions. Barry explains the enchantments he got: Sharpness II on his sword, Power II on his bow, and Feather Falling on his boots. McJones gets Power II on his bow, and enchants some of his armor with unknown enchantments.

Diablo II Hardcore - Episode 7

**Diablo II HC! - Part 7 (THIS IS THE WORST!)** is an episode of Diablo II Hardcore. In the episode, the group traverses the Maggot Lair.

## Summary

The group enters the Halls of the Dead, and PBG and Jirard get separated from the rest of the group. Dean expresses that this has always been his favorite place in the game because he's part Egyptian. Dean continues to explain the game came out when he was in sixth grade, and that when he was in fifth grade, his class watched "Prince of Egypt" in religion class, and thought that the Egyptians sucked for killing people.

The group makes it down to the third level of the Halls of the Dead, and Dean opens a Town Portal. The group goes through the portal, and PBG goes back through one of his own portals which leads to the Stony Tomb, and can't return to the town because that portal closed, and he doesn't have another Scroll of Town Portal on him. PBG leaves the Stony Tomb, and tries to find his way back to the group. Meanwhile, McJones is messing around, casting spells at Paul, instead of helping his own brother, and Jirard is going out to save PBG. PBG then reveals that he never completed the previous quest, and the group has to backtrack to help him complete it.

Back on the third level of the Hall of the Dead, where PBG is fighting Bloodwitch the Wild. Dean finds the Horadric Cube. The group then returns to the Dry Hills to search for the Maggot Lair. PBG sees that Paul isn't currently a bear, so Paul transforms into one; McJones then states that he misses Bear-y. The group then decides that Barry could've been Bear-y, and Dean thinks that the whole game was just built for him.

The group makes it into the Far Oasis. PBG gets separated from the group, and gets attacked by Itchies. The group fight off the swarms of bugs until Dean finds the Maggot Lair. Jirard and Paul agree that it is the worst place in the game. PBG asks what's bad about it, and Paul explains that it's cramped, and everything poisons you. McJones then remembers the place, and thinks that it sucks. The group has difficulty navigating the area, and the group agrees that it's even worse in multiplayer.

PBG and Jirard enter a room filled with Black Locusts, and the rest of the group joins them. Jirard tells PBG to use Zeal, as it will kill them. PBG tries to lead through a passage, and thinks he can do it because he has Zeal now, but Dean thinks that they should just let Paul lead. PBG starts taking damage, so he retreats, and lets Paul take the lead. Paul starts taking damage, so the group retreats to allow Paul to retreat, and PBG agrees that this area sucks.

The group makes their way down to Level 2, and the group allows Paul to lead as McJones mindlessly shoots sparks into the hallway. Jirard opens up a Town Portal, and PBG accidentally goes through it. The group slowly makes their way through the dungeon, single file, which sucks for PBG, since he's a backup melee tank. The group finds the third level, but PBG and Dean are having difficulty passing eachother, so Jirard opens a Town Portal to allow them to do so. The episode ends with them finding Coldworm the Burrower.
Minecraft Hardcore - Season 2, Episode 16

**Minecraft HC #2! - Part 16 (Chicken Killing Time!)** is an episode in Season 2 of Minecraft Hardcore. In the episode, the guys look for watermelon seeds in a mineshaft and execute the stupidest idea ever.

## Summary

The group is searching for a Mineshaft, and McJones is ignoring iron. A bat scares PBG, who is in a cave. PBG nearly walks into lava which isn't glowing, but spots it before doing so. The bat flies into the lava. Barry goes to meet up with PBG to explore the cave with him. Exploring the cave, Barry spots some wood above PBG, which the two find is a Mineshaft. McJones tells the two to wait for him. PBG heads back to lead him back to the Mineshaft.

McJones gives PBG and Barry an invisibility potion, which they plan to use in the mineshaft. McJones explains that for the potions to be effective, they can't hold anything, or wear their armor. PBG suggests that instead they wear their armor, as it seems like the safer option, but McJones wants to use the invisibility potions. McJones takes an invisibility potion and takes off his armor, so Barry and PBG can't see him. McJones holds a bow so that the others can see him. McJones then tells the group that even bumping into an enemy will make them react to you, which makes PBG want to wear his armor even more.

For the sake of funsies, PBG and Barry take the invisibility potions, and the group enters the mineshaft. Barry holds some boots so that the others can see him, and he points out that there are little particles coming off of themselves that they can see. PBG and Barry go towards a skeleton, which scares PBG by looking straight at him. McJones finds a chest with iron, but no watermelon seeds. McJones leaves a torch trail where he goes, and PBG is trying to pass the skeleton without alerting it of his presence. PBG passes it, but then spots a second skeleton, and retreats. PBG passes the skeleton, and tries to find McJones and Barry.

McJones decides that using the invisibility potions wasn't the brightest idea, as he stands next to a Creeper, and PBG agrees. McJones decides that they should regroup, and PBG attempts to hide, but only gets trapped with a skeleton. McJones tells PBG to put his armor back on using shift and click and to kill the skeleton. PBG kills the skeleton, and Barry logs back in, and finds a zombie which attacks him. Barry kills the zombie, and it drops a potato. McJones decides that they should put their armor back on, and the group does so.

Barry finds a cave spider, and the group kills it. PBG decides that they should head away from the cave spiders, but McJones wants to go towards them. The group finds a chest, but it's the same chest he found before. PBG finds another chest, but there's nothing of use in it. McJones' phone rings, and PBG likes his ringtone. McJones takes the phonecall, and PBG sings that he should get off the phone. PBG finds a treasure chest with an Infinity book, then he spots another chest with two diamonds.

Minecraft Hardcore - Season 4, Episode 2

**Minecraft HC #4! - Part 2 (CREEPY KINGS!)** is an episode in Season 4 of Minecraft Hardcore. In the episode, the group gathers resources.

## Summary

The episode begins with Dean outside, fighting a Creeper. After killing it, Dean enters the house, and is told he needs to survive for at least 4 episodes this time. At daybreak, Jeff heads over to the island with trees to collect more wood, however, none of the trees had grown, so Jeff takes the saplings back to their home island. Meanwhile, PBG surveys the other cave on their home island, and mines some coal. Barry reveals that he had found some iron, and is currently smelting it. Jeff replants the trees on top of their home. McJones asks for someone to go down in the cave with him, to which Dean tells him he'll go.

Barry makes iron swords and picks for everyone. He ends up leaving 4 swords in the chest, leading to McJones referencing the Legend of Zelda game of the same name. Caddy accuses Jeff of stealing his Four Swords joke, leaving Jeff confused, and McJones reveals it was him who made the joke. Caddy remarks that McJones sounds like Jeff, and Dean accuses Caddy of thinking all Americans sound the same, and that he learned that Gavin Free is in the Let's Play. Caddy reveals that he gets mistaken for Daniel Radcliffe quite a bit, leading to Radcliffe's face replacing Caddy's for the rest of the episode.

Dean questions why they're on an island with no natural resources. McJones installs a modern art installation in the house to spice up the cave, and Dean questions why it's there. Dean tries to argue that they need to find a new place to live, since there aren't any natural resources, but McJones argues that they should stay where they are, because the bosses they're trying to kill are in the ocean. Dean tells everyone the need to go left, where all the land is. PBG finds a cave, and asks if anyone wants to go down with him. Caddy realizes he lost half his health due to hunger.

Minecraft Hardcore - Season 5, Episode 19

**Minecraft HC #5! - Part 19 (SAILING FOR ENDERMEN!)** is an episode in Season 5 of Minecraft Hardcore. In the episode, PBG and Jeff finish their preparations before sailing across their world in search of endermen.

## Summary

PBG and Jeff build their enchanting table and library and PBG enchants his sword with Sharpness III and Knockback II. Jeff however, isn't a high enough level to access level 3 enchants so he decides to wait until he reaches a high enough level before enchanting his equipment. The two go back into their mineshaft to mine more resources for experience. PBG gets back up to level 30 and goes back to enchant his diamond chestplate with Unbreaking III and Protection III while Jeff repairs the two's shields. After finishing their preparations, the two set out on their search for endermen.

PBG suggests that the two of them search for endermen by boat and the two start sailing down the river only to turn back when they realize that they forgot compasses. Jeff makes both of them a compass and the two return to the docks and discover that they can ride in a boat together. The two sail down the river past an ocean and a jungle biome and into a mountainous area. PBG asks Jeff if he brought a map and Jeff responds that he didn't. PBG then makes the first (and only) "Who Needs A Map?" joke of the season. PBG accidentally sinks their boat under a waterfall while trying to grab some more experience and the two fight a skeleton. PBG fixes their boat and the two continue onward until they find an island with an endermen on it and dock on the shore.

The two kill the other mobs they find on the island and trap the enderman in cage of cobblestone before killing it. However, they do not find an ender pearl. Jeff goes to the shore to fight some creepers and skeletons for experience, while PBG fights mobs on the other side of the island to leave experience for Jeff. PBG finds two witches across the river as well as another enderman on top of a small hill. Jeff attacks three skeletons, but they end up attacking each other instead. PBG kills the two witches with his bow and the two fight a couple more skeletons and a creeper before swimming to where PBG saw the enderman earlier. The two fight a group of skeletons and a zombie and PBG is attacked by two creepers that explode on him. The two fight a few more creepers and skeletons when Jeff gets distracted fighting a zombie when a creeper sneaks up on him and starts to explode.

A creeper's face flashes onscreen at the end of the episode.

Minecraft Hardcore - Season 3, Episode 5

**Minecraft HC #3! - Part 5 (FREAKIN' BEACON!)** is an episode in Season 3 of Minecraft Hardcore. In the episode, the group starts a chicken farm, and they repair the house after Jon's lava pillar burns it down.

## Summary

Jared admires a Flower Path Smooth McGroove made leading out of the door to the house. PBG goes over to build a beacon, leaving Shane to lead the chickens home. Jon finds, and claims a little island. Shane and Jared build a pen for the chickens. PBG asks if anyone can see him on top of his beacon, which Jared can. Jared tells PBG to jump and do a flip. Smooth McGroove finds some diamonds. PBG is disappointed that nobody cares about his freakin' beacon.

Jared notices that the house is on fire. McJones claims that he knew that this would happen, in reference to Jon's lava pillar, but Jon claims that somebody deliberately set the house on fire. The group rushes to put the fire out, as Jon laughs about the whole ordeal. The group tells Jon to rebuild the house, and Dean comments on how the house looks like shit. The group removes the lava, and Jared puts glass around where the lava formerly was. The house is repaired with cobblestone.

PBG plans on going on another adventure, and McJones has Iron to help armor people up. PBG says that priority for armor should go towards Jared and Jon, but also points out that Jon is refusing to put on clothes. Jon points out that Smooth McGroove says "E"s as if they're "I"s. Smooth McGroove mines an Emerald block, and nearly falls into lava. Jared drops into the cage where the lava was formerly, which Shane dubs the "Jared Zoo". Dean suggests that they fill the Jared Zoo with lava.

Dean asks for McJones to watch his back for Creepers, however, McJones is with PBG. After McJones rejects him, Dean immediately get blown up by a Creeper. The clip rewinds to Smooth McGroove's point of view so that we can watch Dean's death again. PBG tells McJones to get back to the house, and they return. Jon remarks that he's glad Dean's dead, and sings the ceremonial hymn, the beginning part of "The Circle of Life" from The Lion King. McJones feels bad for not watching Dean's back for Creepers, after Dean asked him to watch his back for Creepers. Shane and Dean go to get Dean's stuff, and find that he had Diamonds, and was fully armored.

PBG spots Jon on his island, building a castle. PBG and McJones defend the chicken pen from a couple of Creepers. Everyone returns home, and PBG defends Jared from a zombie. Smooth McGroove encounters some Silverfish, and PBG finds an agroed Enderman.

Diablo II Hardcore - Episode 5

**Diablo II HC! - Part 5 (TOO MANY SKELETONS!)** is an episode of Diablo II Hardcore. In the episode, the group takes on the final quest of Act I.

## Summary

The group continues onto Level one of the Jail. Dean and McJones get into an encounter with some Bone Archers, and McJones mistakes the skeletons for Dean's. Dean promises not to get any skeleton mages, then screams for no reason. Jirard and McJones tell Dean that they never know whether or not Dean is actually in trouble. Dean explains that he had turned a corner, and there were suddenly 40 mobs in front of him. Paul states that he can't wait to play on his other computer so that he can actually be helpful to the group, as he's having compatibility issues with the computer he's currently using.

PBG asks who they're going to fight, and the group explains that they are going to fight the chapter boss, Andariel, but they have a few levels they need to go down first. The group continues down to the second level of the Jail. Barry goes off on his own, but Jirard points out that they should probably stick together, so Jirard and Dean go to get Barry as he returns. Barry gets attacked by a group of Dark Ones, and Dean tells him to just let his skeleton army run in front of them. The group continues on to the third level.

PBG explains that he feels as if his job is useless, because Dean's skeletons just do it better. PBG states that when Dean dies, he's looting his corpse, and Paul states that when he dies, they all die. Barry states it'll feel as if they have a third fewer people when he dies. Dean explains that he wasn't initially going to play the Necromancer as he has been, but every guide he looked at told him to play it as he's playing it.

Paul enters the grief stage over Ross' death, as everyone else just kind of forgets he was there. Dean opens a room filled with Skeleton Archers, which the group engages with. The skeletons attack PBG and McJones, nearly killing both of them. The group then continues on to the Inner Cloister. The group slays Bile Hawk the Slayer, before going through the Cathedral to get to the Catacombs.

Upon entering the dungeon, the group fights a hoard of Tainted. The group explores the first level, raiding any casket they find. Jirard finds Level 2 of the Catacombs, but the group continues exploring the first level. McJones points out that he can still see Ross' picture. The group takes a trip back to the Rogue Encampment. There, McJones suggests booting Ross from the game so that they can no longer see his picture, but the group decides against it. PBG edits in a cover of "I Will Remember You" to commemorate Ross.

Back in the Catacombs, the group has made their way down to Level 4, and Dean drops a Town Portal so that everyone can clear their inventory. The group clears out a room full of enemies, and continue onto the boss room. The group kills Andariel, allowing the group to move onto Act II. The group returns to the Rogue Encampment and exchanges equipment so that everyone has the equipment belonging to their class. The group then continues onto Act II.
