I keep finding myself getting strangely drawn into Minecraft.

There's this website on the new that lets you play Minecraft in your browser. You can't really do much besides walk around dig though.

And yet, every few days, I find myself playing it for a while. I have no idea why. Maybe I should try the full game, but I'm awful at creating things....

    It's a fantastic game, and definitley worth the price.
  • DYREDYRE
    I on the other hand didn't like it much and am glad I didn't pay money for it.

    Someone gave it to me as a gift, so I feel like I'm obligated to play it sometimes.

    Nothing strange about that at all. Minecraft is like crack for tropers, apparently. Just like Toehoes, Homestuck and Doctor Who.

    I could just torrent it, but I don't like torrenting games that are played online a lot--I'm afraid the developers will catch me and sue me.

    But...was machen Sie in Minecraft?
  • BobBob
    You just build shit and avoid other shit that destroys the shit you just built, IIRC.
  • ChagenChagen
    [tɕagɛn]
    Yeah, but I suck at building shit.

    Though killing things and attempting to build shit sounds pretty fun.

    If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.

    Minecraft is the game that lets you bring out your inner architect.

    And your inner masochist, once the creepers come and blow up your buildings.

    Just torrent it and try single player. If you like it, then buy the real thing for multiplayer.

    I like turtles.
    I recommend it.

    If you're like me, you'll burn out on the game periodically only to have your interest revived for the next several weeks by a new update.  In any case, the more creative you are, the more you'll enjoy the game.  You might surprise yourself when you really apply yourself to making something cool.  Of course, it's also enjoyable for the nerve-wracking, nightmare fuelish atmosphere that comes with nighttime, caves, and the Nether.

    Lots of exploration to be had, too.

    I should take screenshots of the giant shuttlecock I am making.

    I am wasting too much time carving out tunnels for shits and giggles in this game.

    Well first I will have to decide on the color. Pinkish or Beigeish?
  • BobBob
    What, you can't make it pinkish-beige or beigeish-pink?

    I'd go Beigeish.

    I just spent 20 minutes carving out a square sealed-off room in a mountain for no reason.

    Welcome to Minecraft.

    Say goodbye to your life..

    I've hit the point where I've started applying Greek golden rectangle principles to my buildings. Would you consider that a cry for help?

    Attempted to make room perfectly square. Got bored.

    Made staircase to outside. Sealed off with red rock. 
  • ChagenChagen
    [tɕagɛn]
    Replaced staircase materials with obsidian, cause I can.

    Attempting to ignite entire room with TNT. 

    Did not succeed. Not sure what to do with the all the explosives.

    Why am I getting Apocalyptic Log vibes from these posts?
  • BobBob
    So is this the new IJBMers updates now?

    It's just as boring and vapid...
  • VorpyVorpy
    ☭Unstoppable Sex Goddess☭
    No, because IJBMers Updates is an ironic thread.
  • Central AvenueCentral Avenue
    No silly, it's the new Chagen-accidentally-takes-out-a whole-town-while-trying-to-dispose-of-all-those-explosives updates.

    Oh, okay.

    That makes sense.
