Guest RJAP Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Hello! I've just come onto school break, and I was wondering if anyone plays Minecraft here? A large amount of people at my school continue to talk about 'creepers' and 'crafting benches' <_< and it's really hurting my head now... :angry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruka Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 I've never heard of that before. I assume it's some kind of 'gun firing, shooting' game, so I'm not that type. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlet Fever Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 I don't, but my boyfriend does.....I actually made him a Minecraft themed cake a few weeks back for his birthday. lol @Evil Bunny: Surprisingly not....It's more of a building/crafting/collecting sort of game.

Spritzie Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 My husband plays. (Though he hasn't in awhile.) It is a cool game, but I've yet to try it. The game perspective with the movement makes me dizzy. I can only watch him for a couple minutes before I get super dizzy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YIKES!! :ohno: Sounds like Farmville... :sick01: My husband plays. (Though he hasn't in awhile.) It is a cool game, but I've yet to try it. The game perspective with the movement makes me dizzy.

I'd suggest getting way away from it before you pass out. 0:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alynniae Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 FARMVILLE IS SUPER COOL, but they keep telling me to start playing, i'm just going to ignore them :whistle: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RJAP Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Honestly, I used to play, but everyone started hacking (well, they found a glitch) and I just got bored of 'plant blueberries' and 'Linda sent you a special delivery! Open and see what's inside!' What else was I going to do, just let it rot? :grrr: I mainly don't like the fact that the game treats you like an idiot. And that's just one reason why the most popular games are First/Third Person Shooters, because they're usually either 18 or 15 and trust that the person playing it isn't a young, naive *rude word here*! But, not as many parents that should do care about game labels being 10 years higher than the age of the person. I admit, I'm only 16 and I play 18s, but that's so small compared to the children who can't say their age, put a 'teen' at the end of it and tell the truth at the same time! Sorry for the rant, feel free to shout your opinion at me too if you like! :yes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tynach Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Am I the first person here who's actually played the game? Minecraft is in the first person perspective, so if you aren't the one playing it it can look disorienting - the fact is, if you're the one playing it, it's easy to expect the movements you make, so it's not as dizzying. Minecraft is NOT like farmville or anything like that. The point of the game, is that you're a random person who finds themselves in an uninhabited world, and you have to survive. During the night, cuboid monsters come out (you can turn monsters off, which I usually do), so you often find yourself gathering resources (like wood from trees) during the day, and then you build those into tools at night. Building tools, you should be able to get a pickaxe early on in the game - which will let you dig through rock. After that, you create a mineshaft underground, and you continue to gather more and more valuable resources (Iron, redstone, eventually diamonds) until you can build practically whatever you want. People build castles, traps for the monsters, explore caves... Essentially, Minecraft is an exploration/building/survival game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erythraeus Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I used to play it, I used mods so I could build planes and tame more animals. It's pretty fun. To anyone that hasn't played it, you should give it a try if you're feelin bored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweetdang Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Minecraft sounds extremely extremely cool. Idk, I really want to play it right now. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tynach Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 i used to play stopped shortly after i got a job and now i can't play online because i have no internet at home :( That really sucks :( Mostly the Internet thing - I find that I'm fine if I can't play Minecraft for whatever reason... I'm not addicted to it or anything (honestly! I haven't even played it for more than an hour over the course of this whole week! Though I played it for a few minutes at a time almost every day...), but I do really enjoy playing it. The fact that it runs flawlessly on Linux is a HUGE plus for me. Of course, even if it weren't java, it probably would... Portal 2 even works on Linux now o.O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
