    An great game. It is this fun to make a new savefile and play survival even after doing it so many times. And playing creative is just as much fun. Building your own cities.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Le pongo un 9 y no un 10 a causa de las últimas actualizaciones que, a mi parecer, le han ido quitando la esencia al juego. Los cambios de texturas, las nuevas mesas que se han ido incluyendo y muchos otros contenidos, terminaron por acercar al Minecraft de toda la vida a una forma no tan lejana a los mods que se pueden descargar en internet. De todas formas sigo disfrutando el juego, quizás menos que ayer, pero porque algo de ese mítico juego sigue en pie. Expand

    I'm gonna be honest here, I have a friend addicted to the game and he made me buy the game.
    Overall I'm not that disapointed since it has a big library of options of what to do but my friend only wanted to play hypixel.
    the game is pretty damn nice in my opinion but not really my style since even tho the gameplay is really good, the graphics for me "personaly" are not apiling . this

    this game is recommanded for the people who wanna get creative with stuff mainly, also recommanded for people who like building, PVP, mods and open world but not really recommanded toward the people who like a lot of action, run n' gun and shooting games basically. also it's also not for people who like story games like uncharted

    This is the best game in my opinion, while it is not perfect, (and runs like **** on my laptop) I really enjoy it since i can do whatever the hell i want and there are basically no boundaries. I would really like that they use the bedrock version's rendering engine or in just any way make it better since without mods, the game runs at maybe 15fps on the newest updates.

    You get inspired to create your own city last night, but then you lose that inspiration the night after. Minecraft is kind of like that, and that is pretty much the only thing that I don't like about the game, which is, "losing inspiration."

    Not only losing inspiration is the most difficult part to come across when playing Minecraft, but losing motivation is another key factor.

    Not only losing inspiration is the most difficult part to come across when playing Minecraft, but losing motivation is another key factor. Minecraft get's boring after playing for a couple hours, and then you will just forget about the world and never come back to it.

    I like the fact that you can survive from hunger, mobs, natural disasters and more, but I feel like there needs to be more into the game, especially when there is no new updates that occur frequently. Minecraft should update their graphics, add better physics, better content, new biomes and more!

    The memories playing this game as a child just brings my review over the top.

    This is my opinion, what I believe, and what I came across when playing Minecraft. Thank you for reading.

    Can't deny the fact it's a well developed game that delivers on what it promises, but it's overhyped, the content is not that deep and basically it's just a sandbox survival...

    Don't get too stuck on this game kids, finish your homework.

As you can see, the possibilities are endless. But propably the most important thing is the possibility to copy your world's and share them with other people. in this way, there have been many recreations of other games like "The legend of zelda : ocarina of time "(huge shout out to rivero for developing this over 8 years! ) or "among us" made and are available to the public for free. I really enjoy this game. Expand

    Minecraft... A legendary game that cannot be forgotten. A game that can be played more or less endlessly. Although the game has an ending in the form of killing Ender Dragon, so nothing prevents you from playing the game further.

A legendary game that cannot be forgotten. A game that can be played more or less endlessly. Although the game has an ending in the form of killing Ender Dragon, so nothing prevents you from playing the game further. Minecraft is magical especially with its world that somehow has no boundaries. You can customize it at will, and that's what makes the game so special. As they say imagination has no limits and here you can make a lot of all kinds of buildings. From small houses to phenomenal castles. That was just an example. The choice is yours. The game offers several modes and these are Survival, Hardcore and Creative. The most classic one is Survival, where you have HP and the need to eat. For building you have to mine materials and just as the word Survival implies, it is a kind of survival. The second mode mentioned, Hardcore, is spiced up Survival. Same rules. Health bars, the need to eat, only the game is harder, mainly because in Survival mode you can freely switch between game difficulties while playing, while in Hardcore the game is locked and you can't get rid of mobs. And the last mode called Creative is the easiest. No lives, no hunger. Immortality and the ability to fly around the map with the ability to have every building material you want. This mode is mostly used for those who just want to do outright building. As I mentioned the most classic one is the Survival mode. You are dropped into a randomly generated world. Without anything. Your job is to survive. If you die, you spawn where you spawned when you created the world. This changes after you get wool and some wood, which will allow you to make a bed. Once you sleep in the game, the next time you die you will spawn where you slept. So once you've survived a few hours of gameplay by getting some materials to build a house and also getting some sheep's wool to make a bed, you're pretty much set. The fact that you have to have materials for a house was an example. You don't have to. You could make a treehouse. You can make a house in a cave. Underground. Underwater. I don't know... There's just so many possibilities, and that's what makes Minecraft so excellent, because every player will have their own unique path through the game. As well as building, there's also mining, which I think is such a great way to relax. You're just digging around in your cave, laying torches and suddenly... Boom! Creeper behind you and you're dead. I'm taking it back. It's not really that relaxing. There are mobs in the game besides you that spawn at night and come after you. They just want to eat you for dinner. You, of course, want to defend yourself, so you kill them with your sword, which you crafted thanks to the Crafting Table. The Crafting Table here will designate you to craft items. A few years ago, this could be quite frustrating for newcomers because there is a sort of grid that you place different materials in to make items. Previously you had to know what to put where and how to put it. Either you figured it out or the internet helped you. But nowadays the game has gone through a lot of updates including the fact that now the game already shows you what and how to put where to make the item you want. So for new players, perfect. So much for crafting. Back to mobs. You have your crafted sword and you go kill the bastards. Once you kill them, you get some marbles shining on you. You pick them up, and you see a line start to fill up at the bottom. That line is a level. Yes, your character is leveling up. Minecraft may not be a solid RPG, but you gain level here, which you can then use to enchant your items. Enchant is something that upgrades items. It gives them more damage or an unbreakable time, for example, because your weapons will be destroyed here sooner or later. It depends on what material they're made of. If it's wood, they'll be destroyed right away and won't do any real damage. But if you mine deep underground for a while and have patience, you can find coal, iron, gold, redstone and especially diamonds! Diamonds are the key here. Such diamond weapons can last a while and give the most damage. And diamonds are needed to finish the game, because with them you can make the diamond pickaxe you need to mine obsidian. You can then use the obsidian to create a portal to the Nether. Unfortunately, this is where the biggest problem comes in, and for me the only downside of the game. You'll need to kill a few blazers and then, in the normal world, a few Enderman to create the Ender Perel that will lead you to the endgame. Maybe I'm just a noob, but finding the Endermans took me a while and getting the Ender Perel felt unnecessarily lengthy. Once you have enough Ender Perels, they lead you to the End Portal, which I also had quite a bit of trouble finding though. So aside from that problematic ending for me, though, Minecraft is an amazing game that I recommend and a MUST-PLAY title for me. Expand

    Minecraft has been a god of the gaming world for a whole decade now. Whoever posts a bad or mixed review deserves to go to hell. Ten decades of hard work, developers still working.

Ten decades of hard work, developers still working. The mechanics are crazily well-worked and shaped the gaming community. Your twenty bucks are worth this. Java? Amazing. Bedrock? Smaller community, but still quite amazing. You angry boomers have no sense of anything. You think its violent? Really?!? You've got to be fuking kidding me. Creative mode lets you fly around and build whatever the hell you want, and no dying. Unless you fall through the world, but whatever. Survival? The full game. Fastpaced? No! Slowpaced? No! It's however you want it to be. And you're like "Zombies are too scary! My child won't sleep!" Well, your kid's just veeery sensitive, and that ain't Minecraft's fault. And you kill mobs and other players? Well if you think it's so violent, where's the blood, and screams? And if you still do, fuk you, just don't let your kid play video games, cuz that's what most video games have. Buggy? No, if you think it is, your computer is a pile of shat. Play with friends! You can use LAN, your Local Area Network, to let your friends connect! Or maybe try a big server that could be as simple as typing in play.2b2t.org in a box. You find someone doing something innapropriate for your child? That isn't Minecraft's fault so SHUT THE FUK UP BOOMER.
    So that's why there is not a single fuking thing in Minecraft that's bad.

It is infinite fun with infinite hobbies to enjoy may it be survival, building, redstone, commands, mods, servers, map building, farm making, it never stops and that's why it's been around for more than a decade. The simple concept of being able to build anything you want is the juice of this masterpiece. It is what you want it to be because at the end YOU are the player. Minecraft has that thing where you never have nothing else to do and the achievements definitely help with that, try and get them all whilst also making a world you can be proud of, and then, just start again! The nature of this game makes it that enjoyable to start over and over without taking the fun out of it, and if you do get bored of single player, just join a multiplayer server or even start your own! May it be a minigames, faction, survival or skyblock server, there's always tons of fun in playing it. Definitely a must-play because sometimes you don't even know you'll like it! Expand

This core tenet of Minecraft is what gives it its power- in time individual game titles like Zelda and Mario will lose their power and their replay ability will decrease, however Minecraft will continue to thrive, as already proven by its extended run at the top of popular video gaming. People can do whatever they want to do in Minecraft so long as the developers have put it in the game, and as long as mojang continues updating and polishing the game, the game will remain popular and at the forefront of the videogame scene.

    Somewhat overated as a game .
    It gained lots of attention from Youtubers and other forms of social media .
    The game gets repetitive and boring even though new updates are rolled out .
    It is a decent and fun game but it isn't exactly as great as may make it out to be .

    The 1.0 version of the indie phenomena is still obviously unfinished and flawed in many ways, but it's so easy to forget that when you're building your dream castle, exploring scary caves and vast mountain ranges and having a great time in its blocky world.
