Herobrine Never Left

you're so cool & also good looking

he just moved to bedrock bro, explains the heart attacks you get in game

When they stopped putting "Removed Herobrine" in all of the patch notes I was really hoping that'd be when they actually added him.

Maybe the true herobrine was the vindicator that killed you along the way.

I want a REAL arg of Herobrine, nothing try hardy or in your face. Something that really encapsulates the subtle horror of not being alone.

Genuinely wish Mojang would wordlessly add Herobrine to single-player games, but make him absurdly rare (like 0.1% of players ever seeing him) and vanish in less then a second after he enters the player's vision. Do it right, and most people would assume any "footage" of him showing up in-game was a hoax. You could even take it a step further and do your best to hide/obscure the code that makes him appear within the game's procedural generation algorithms. And since he uses the Steve texture, there wouldn't even be a texture file to tie back to.

I'm fucking 21, and recently while playing minecraft I got a fucking jumpscare thinking I saw herobrine, I can't make this shit up. I'm doing a base build inside a cave, and it was dark as hell, when suddenly I saw what looked like a zombie, but the arms were not lifted. It was actually just a zombie, and somehow, the bricks in the background caused the impression of his arms being unlifted. But I legit almost died of a heart attack.

if i had a penny for the amount of "I had a brother but he is no longer with us" i heard i would have 50 pennies

Herobrine's fear is very simple: In Minecraft we are usually unstoppable, without other people our will can without problems shape reality to our liking, but the mere knowledge of an entity understood as another self that has unknown plans arises inconsistent with the initial idea of ​​the unique human. Herobrine is there to remind us that the Minecraft world, 20 times larger than Earth, can never be explored in full, and we cannot be sure that in some cave, behind a valley, at the bottom of the sea or in the depths of a cave do not resent such a terrible entity in the darkness. Herobrine is there to remind us that we are not the rulers of that world, there are other creatures who want to oppose us and who create plots that we cannot even conceive. No coincidence, my favorite horror story is: "The last man on Earth lives alone in his house. One day he hears a knock on the door, END"

The string of numbers and letters at 16:30 is Hexadecimal and means "I‘m still here"

the white eyes legend was an actual bug in old versions of minecraft

Honestly I think the Notch’s dead brother thing is stupid. I like the idea that Herobrine was originally a guide NPC in game that was removed incorrectly and now is in a broken state, trying to mimic the player and the environment.

Herobrine broke into my house and stole all the pizza from the fridge and left the box in my room

Kevin took care of him.

You didn't finish the quote. When he said "when I became an adult, I put away childish things", he followed it up with "including the fear of childishness".

herobrine must've been very unstopable especially when you try to defeat him with the new mace and wind charges but failed to.

My dad swears on his life that he saw herobrine when playing Minecraft Not once in my over a decade of playing it have I ever seen any sort of paranormal activity in any of my worlds I still don’t believe him

Idk bout yall but me and a buncha my friends were in the “befriend herobrine” squad

Technically, if you have your settings right, you can actually encounter the thing that would later inspire the creation of Herobrine: White Eyes. To elaborate, the seams of blocks in the right conditions can actually let in light from the skybox, giving the illusion of eyes peering at you from a dark cave. White Eyes never went away. She's just harder to spot now.

I never liked when Herobrine was a hostile mob in peoples minds. I much preferred him as a neutral spectator that would avoid the player, silently watching, but theoretically defend himself or attack if needed. I think it's much more mysterious and interesting that way.
