I'm new to minecraft (after watching the world explode about it in middle school and now I'm in college) and its so fun! May I ask though, who is herobrine?
So, honestly it’s a little complicated to explain who Herobrine is but essentially he is like.. the anti christ version of Steve? Is like the easiest way I feel you could explain him lmao.. I’m honestly not 100% sure how it all started but there was this one post I feel that kind of started it all.. I’ll add it to this ask so you can look it over… but mostly he’s kind of like.. part of gamer lore? He’s “technically” not apart of the vanilla game.. unless you believe in him and the lore related to him. Some players have made Herobrine mods where he is an aggressive/hostile mob but I dunno if I’d say that’s cannon? He’s honestly just an eerie entity that looks exactly like the steve character (occasionally shown with a beard) and whited out eyes.It’s honestly a really interesting creepypasta gamer lore. I’d highly suggest looking up stories about Herobrine because it’s really an interesting concept. Most players blame oddly generated bits of land and terrain as herobrine’s doing and stuff. It’s honestly really cool and amazing. I like to imagine he’s part of the game even though he’s really “technically” not. It’s fun to imagine some unknown entity is the cause of a random dirt patch with peonies in the middle of cave clearing.Anyways, I’ve rambled enough!! Here is the post that I most commonly see related to the herobrine lore that gets passed around regularly uwu (and here is also the mc wiki on herobrine!) The image isn’t super clear so it’s a little difficult to read.. I apologize :( This was the best I could get.
