okay am i crazy? someone please tell me I'm crazy, I saw the thumbnail for Xisuma's newest hermitcraft episode and was immediately reminded of the deepslate/blackstone palette and building style of all of the buildings from the Evil Empire in season 8. Clicked on the video and the introduction "Previously, on Hermitcraft" was voiced with Evil Xisuma's voice filters. I had thought Xisuma said in a recent FAQ video he had no plans to bring Evil X back into hermitcraft plot because the storytelling wasn't really his top priority, but this kind of seems like foreshadowing of some kind? Thoughts?Regardless, kind of a sickening thought for c!xisuma that Ex might just be. lurking. very cool <sweating
@silveve Okay I checked out the vod and no you're totally right, that conversation was interesting at the very least. I'm surprised Evil X came up at all, but it was Doc who actually brought it up (i think because someone in twitch chat asked about him).
As a side note, (and because doc spoke of him so highly), I think it's hilarious that the hermits think of Xisuma as the perfect image of innocence XD that guy freaking loves his shenanigans! I would even argue that that's the entire reason Evil X as a character exists-- So that (cc!)Xisuma can stir the pot and blame it on the Evil character yknow?
But yeah that was very... i could definitely see it as suspicious, though i think i'm biased with the red string. It was pointed out that Xisuma has done the Evil X voice as an intro before and it didn't mean anything, so it's possible i could actually just be crazy after all. At the very least, xisuma seemed pretty clueless about if E.X. could be at play (though he could be "in character"). He certainly didn't deny the possibility that E.X. could be kicking around, that's for sure. I continue to snoop and squint my eyes at everything
(I've done a little transcript of the E.X. part of their conversation from Doc's stream below the cut, for anyone who's interested!
