The video is a Minecraft hardcore gameplay where the player has two main goals: to beat the game and to acquire an Elytra for flying. The player starts by ensuring their tools don't break during fights, and then begins a tedious process of collecting gold in the Nether to trade with Piglins for Ender Pearls. The player also collects Ender Pearls from Piglens in the Overworld and from Hoglins in the Bastion.
After collecting enough Ender Pearls, the player ventures to the Nether Fortress to acquire Blaze Rods. The player then returns to the Overworld and continues to look for the Nether Fortress. After a long time, the player finally finds the fortress but it's located in a Soul Sand Valley, which means they have to fight Wither Skeletons and regular Skeletons.
The player uses a knockback sword to toss Wither Skeletons off the edge, and manages to pick up the last Blaze Rod needed. After returning to the portal, the player does more pointless parkour and finally finds the stronghold. The player then builds a pillar for future reference and jumps into the stronghold.
After finding a library with some awesome loot, the player finds the portal and fills it in. The player checks their inventory one more time to make sure they have everything they need. The player then jumps into the portal, spawns in a box underground, and starts shooting at the healing crystals. The player gets on top of one of the pillars to shoot out some of the healing crystals easier.
The player then flies to the End City, where they find a floating ship with an Elytra. The player uses an Ender Pearl to reach the ship and retrieves the Elytra. The player then flies back to the main End Island, where they fly up into the sky to get a bird's eye view of their base. The player concludes that they will be able to make a ton more progress on their base now that they have access to the End.
