[edit] Aspetto
Herobrine è un umano, con la skin di Steve. Solo con le pupille bianche, le quali si illuminano nel buio, come delle luci.
[edit] La storia dietro Herobrine
Herobrine crea strutture casuali, come piramidi o tunnel di dimensioni 2x2. Inoltre brucia il terreno su cui passa, e crea dei veri e propri dungeon sotterranei illuminati da torce redstone. Appare spesso ai margini della nebbia, a tale distanza da renderlo molto piccolo alla vista del giocatore.
[edit] Varianti
Ci sono diverse varianti del comportamento di Herobrine, ma si possono solitamente raggruppare in due categorie.
La versione "stalker" è identificata come il fratello di Notch, che insegue il giocatore, ma scompare se ci si avvicina.
La versione minatore di Herobrine è un minatore vendicativo che cerca di intrappolare il giocatore in delle trappole, presumibilmente per rubare i loro oggetti. Attende che le persone entrino nelle trappole, dopodichè le sigilla al loro interno, oppure le teletrasporta davanti a se per ucciderle. Alcune varianti di questa versione rompono le creazioni del giocatore, saccheggiandone inoltre i forzieri.
[edit] Origini e popolarità
Herobrine appare per la prima volta in un'immagine che ne mostra l'incontro durante il gioco. Essa era stata postata all'interno di un thread in un forum, ed ebbe una visibilità molto limitata. Secondo quanto dichiarato dall'autore del post, Herobrine era apparso nella modalità single-player, creando diverse piramidi e tunnel.
Solo successivamente Herobrine ha iniziato a riscuotere una maggiore visibilità, quando lo staff di Broadcast creò uno scherzo basato su di lui durante una diretta del loro show. Potete trovare lo stream di quest'ultima qui (al minuto 20:45).
In seguito, venne mostrato in un video Herobrine all'interno di un lago di lava creato da un utente. The livestream went down after the player ran and saved, only to resume ten minutes later, where Herobrine had disappeared.
During this stream, the player can be heard talking to his wife, stating he was trolling, which flooded the livestream chat with outrage. The player then faked a game crash.
During this crash, all watchers were redirected to another page, featuring Herobrine's face, but with real, frantically rolling eyes in the place of his block eyes, modified to be completely black.
When viewing the page's source, there were a jumble of characters and letters. after removing all non-alphabet characters, the following message was revealed.
| It has been reported that some victims of torture, during the act, would retreat into a fantasy world from which they could not WAKE UP. In this catatonic state, the victim lived in a world just like their normal one, except they weren't being tortured. The only way that they realized they needed to WAKE UP was a note they found in their fantasy world. It would tell them about their condition, and tell them to WAKE UP. Even then, it would often take months until they were ready to discard their fantasy world and PLEASE WAKE UP. |
The message keeps telling the viewer to "wake up", implying they're living in a fantasy world, and this text hidden in the page is their "note".
It is widely believed all of his appearances in the stream and outside are retextured paintings, retextured iron doors or other players, albeit with the name tag removed above their head.
Since then, there has been a huge increase in his popularity, propelling Herobrine to meme status, making moderators of the wiki and forums need to take extra steps to stem the flow of user-made spam.
[edit] Future update
Notch posted on twitter about the subject of Herobrine, early in his popularity boost.
| RavenBurga Is "he" a real entity ingame or is it just a successful_troll.swf? |
| Notch It's not real. =) But it might be soon! |
This confirmed there was no Herobrine, but suggested Notch planned to add him at a later date.
At Minecraftcon 2010, Notch confirmed Herobrine will be in the game, probably in a "seecret friday update".
Due to increased drama surrounding the Herobrine page, a wiki moderator asked notch over IRC if Herobrine would be added:
| 12:25 Kizzycocoa [...] is there any confirmation on his upcoming existence in MC? |
| 12:27 Notch i have no plans of adding herobrine as is, but I do like the rumors, haha |
This shows Notch has decided against adding Herobrine. However, the fact that "as is" suggested that something like Herobrine may be added, fuelling beliefs he will be added even further. So, once again, the same user asked for clarification
| 8:09 AM Oct 20th Kizzycocoa [...] the entire community is getting frustrated by the hero-spam |
| 8:56 AM Oct 20th Notch i have no plans of adding herobrine.[2] |
[edit] Recent future update news
Jeb has been ambiguously hinting that Herobrine may come to Minecraft after all.
|
“@InfiniteCraft Don't worry STOP Herobrine is coming STOP„
|
|
“@jeb_ Maybe you guys should add a mob to the nether. Its a ghost but it looks simular to your character. It can act simular to the enderman„
|
|
|
“@CloneTroper1019 I'm already on it„
|
This may suggest that Herobrine is still being considered, and may very well be put in randomly in future without warning, as was previously hinted by Notch.
Mojang's "trolly" nature of playing with their fanbase would indicate such an intention is not out of the question. However, this is also not a solid confirmation, and should not be treated as concrete proof of his potential implementation.
[edit] Cameos
[edit] Mojang media appearences
Herobrine has appeared in official Mojang images as an "in" joke.
His first appearance in official Mojang images started with the Wedding Weekend, in which he was just behind Notch's Minecraft character. His second appearance was in the Minecon header, where, yet again, Herobrine was just behind Notch.
Some users point to this as proof of his future addition. However it is likely a Red Herring, and only there to provoke Herobrine "supporters".
[edit] Changelogs
Herobrine was stated to have been removed in Minecraft Beta v1.6.6. This was a joke, referring to Notch removing the Human mob.
He was also stated to have been removed in 1.7, as well as 1.7_01, this time with no reason apparent.
This repeated with the 1.8 Adventure Update, again with no apparent reason.
It again occurred in the full 1.0 release of Minecraft, again for no apparent reason.
[edit] In-game messages
If a player is killed by arrows fired from a dispenser in SMP, a message will appear saying "[Player name] was shot by Herobrine". This reference to Herobrine is nothing more that a mere reference.
[edit] Trivia
- When asked about Audio Player implementation in the wiki, and limits of what could be uploaded, C418 replied to Herobrine claims relating to disc 11. He stated that he cannot say a lot about 11, but that it is not anything to do Herobrine.
