Minecraft is the only thing keeping me entertained till New Vegas comes out. | |
okay, I give up. I'm getting this game. | |
If im typing this, its because im just about to hit the sack for the night, this is basicly the last 3-4 minutes while i look into things - things that has happend around the world and so on. in short, those are the 3-4 minutes when im Not playing minecraft im thinking of starting a new world and then, by using MTS (Minecraft Topographical Survey) build a screenshot for each "day" that goes by - thus making a.. well, time-lapse for that world. there is one problem with that idea tho, since i mostly go below, nothing would happen for 3 hours, then suddenly a railroad would spread out from one hilltop to another.. my railroads kill minecraft :( (and yes, i love this game.) | |
so many a creeper have tried to destroy my alters(2-3 made have 4 left), artificial islands(partway done), and day long project to flatten 5 mountains and create a field(still in process). | |
With minecraft I have officially realised I am not an average geek. I am actually wondering if I am a geek at all... Seriously, I don't get the fun and I am about 100% sure most people don't. It caters to a very specific demographic, but apparently does it so well that these people have started to believe it is perfection (see the writer of this piece) for everyone. I am getting concerned that too many people might be listening. Certainly the indie market is going to be flooded with clones. | |
Wasn't there supposed to be a new Experienced Points last Friday? Anyone know what happened to it? | |
And is there a dedicated thread for the Escapist Minecraft server discussion? | |

They way it uses the human instincts is brilliant! The graphics help to improve this feeling. It is so unrealistic that everything can be taken as a symbol. Imagine you build a hollow box thing made of stone that is very high and you call it a 'tower'. You SEE a tower. You couldn't do that in a high-end 3D engine without slipping deep into the "Uncanny Valley" or include a 1000 pages thick tutorial in 3D rendering. | |
I sometimes play a game a lot like this, Roblox. | |
Yeah, my brother is hooked on Minecraft. I can appreciate the necessity of low graphics when the gameworld can be so vast, but for me graphics are simply too important. If I don't like looking at something, I won't be doing it for hours on end. I do love the concept of the sandbox 'do pretty much anything you want, building-wise' and the precision is a bit better than making terrain maps in SimCity then jumping over to Sims to build houses (plus: no crazy underground tunnels) but I just can't stick to it without fly-paper graphics. :D | |
