    Yeah, recently I got back into Minecraft (I found a shader pack that takes it from looking kinda pretty to gorgeous, mostly by adding bloom lighting and lens flare, making the foliage sway in the breeze, making the water actually ripple and reflect, and making it get very misty and foggy indeed when it rains), and after exploring a bit in Creative mode I came across an absolutely enormous bunch of cool looking mountains, and I knew exactly what to do with them: Build houses and villages all around them and populate them with villagers and golems, making sure to fence them in to make sure none of the dumbass villagers wander off the edge of a cliff or into a zombie spawn. And now that I've pretty much used up every single ledge and plateau the mountains had to offer (including putting a huge hotel on the peak, complete with furnished rooms and a roof garden), so I guess I'll start builing villages into the mountainsides like a Mexican Pueblo. It's a hell of alot of work, but it's worth it just to see the view from the top, the warm glow of the lanterns in the windows lighting up the night.

    One huge problem with the game though: The community sucks. I went onto a server to battle, and one of my teammates called me a noob (Who even says that anymore?) while he donated 20 dollars so he can be better than everyone else, unless the other guy donated more. After I was killed, I was put in with the spectators where a guy who died before me called me a noob because a guy shot me to death with a bow, while I had a sword and I was in water (Because I totally had the advantage.) He also used "Noob" unsurprisingly, and there was another guy who said I lacked the brain cells to understand, even though I lost because 1/3 of the team died, and the other just didn't give a shit and ran around, and I was stuck at a safe distance away from the guy so I couldn't damage him. Also, the combat sucks, you're literally just swinging sticks with no sign of who is winning or not.

      I think THIS GAME'S pixelated graphics are bad. As in, someone could do a much better job even with the same limitations.
      Also, the weapons and enemies/npcs/players look like shit. No reason why they can't be slightly more stylized than shitty box creatures. No charm.
      If minecraft had the charm and crafting complexity of terraria, then you'd have me sold.

    I remember getting this game back when it was in 1.2.5. I have fond memories of sitting in my dirt house,piss scared of the monsters,never going mining because of all the weird spooky noises that happened when I got close to a cave. I was so terrified of the game,but I loved it even when I wasn't doing any of the things people buy the game for now.
    I remember playing on a server with about twelve or so regular players,and everyone was friendly to eachother. It was neighborly,really...You could pop over to someone else's house and ask them for a spare piece of leather and no one would have to bring up a trading guide. Nowadays you go to the server with the best plugins so no one can cheat you,and you make sure to stick around for all the lag-inducing mining events on the off-chance that you'll get a diamond.
    The same thing happens to every game that does well: Undertale,Minecraft,FNAF...The community becomes cancerous. The actually decent things that come of this are FAR outnumbered by the bad things. People start pumping out porn,roleplaying their fanfictions in the weirdest places,and drooling all over themselves trying to infect you. I love Undertale,and I love Minecraft,but it's so easy for the rest of the community to make others feel ashamed for liking these things.

    I wish fire still spread like that. It was really fun, except when it was by accident, in which case is was slightly annoying but still quite fun.

    Over two years later we are still playing Minecraft. Can the same be said for other games from that time?

    • @TheDutyPaid
      @TheDutyPaid 10 лет назад +10

      Did not say Minecraft was the only game from that time, TF2 is another fine game.

      TheDutyPaid Well you kind of did in a way with the sentence "Can the same be said for other games from that time?"
      Which would be yes quite a few: Skyrim, Arkham City, Portal 2, SR II, Deus Ex: HR, ect...

      "Can the same be said for other games from that time?" was asked in a question. I could have said. Minecraft is the only game we are still playing after 2 years, which would have been a statement.
      But as you rightly put there are other games from two years ago and more which still hold a place in our hearts.

    I honestly think Yahtzee's comparison of survival Minecraft and Gmod are a good analogy for the emergence of AI software.
    Yeah you can make something with AI, but you won't feel as satisfied with that as you would have been by putting the work into it.

    With the introduction of Hoppers, you can build entire factories in Minecraft that automatically convert tons of materials. Too bad Mojang stopped introducing interesting updates and instead just figured "We'll make every single shit moddable and let modders take care of it.

    Minecraft is seemingly unique in that information on how to play it was and still is a part of the public counciousness. I have no idea how I learned to play. I suspect most people don't either. We just... know.

    • @oliviawronski6387
      @oliviawronski6387 4 года назад

      You learn by playing. Ok, now it has a recepie book (which I have never used). But when I started (... 6 years ago, I think? 7?) I just learned from the demo, there was a bug that allowed you to get creative in the 1.5 hour demo, and I made rollercoasters.
      Then... I dunno, I just googled a ton. Then I joined a server, which I still drop into nowadays.
