THIS IS MY OPINION!!!
I don't get. I seriously don't. What is it the thrill of building with dirt or sand that makes it exciting. I mean all it is is a blocky game. The only credit I give Minecraft is that it's a sandbox game but that's it. Done zilch zero nada.

It's popular because it's popular. I don't know how else to explain it.
It's popular because people on youtube are playing it and kids want to be just like them.

It's like 1st person Legos. I get it.
this game has bats now..?
I only play it because a friend convinced me to download the pixelmon mod.

It's 3D Legos
i don't like the main game, but the mods are fun
"tech" mods scratch the autism itch that a lot of modern city building games can't, in regards to logistics and infrastructure planning

yes and they do absolutely nothing (as of the last update I played)
It's a game meant for 6-12 year olds that features building with legos and playing with dolls.
hype train was because it can be a good educational segway for different topics for rich white kid schools. Also it's a safe game for kids unless you're on the 4chan servers...

All the kids have fallen for the Lego jew
You faggots will never know the excitement and fun of the old game. Fuck you and fuck mojang.
It's a cheaper alternative to Legos for the most part.

I liked it more before it became a children's game.
3D Lego.
You build things and explore the wide land given. I'm building floating islands and a large seacenter. Don't let the merchandising and the kid-friendly nonsense deter you from an overall fun game.

I was there and played during the early alphas, back when it was mostly adult men that played. It was fun. Just because its popular with kids as well now doesn't make it shit. Id rather a child be playing minecraft and using his imagination than playing CoD mindlessly blasting for 6 hours while his brain is slowly fried.

The game runs like absolute shit
i like to play it while listening to news, lectures or books on tape or something.
i seriously can't do one thing at a time, it's probably a disorder
i'm playing online backgammon as i browse 4chan
The huge library of mods help a lot too
