It's fairly entertaining if you're a creative fellow.

it used to be fun.

all the adventure crap ruined it, that was the wrong direction to move the game in.

is the meter on the bottom really going to ruin your experience
creative mode is still there, that's what the game was similar too way back when i played it on their website
after that it was pretty similar to what exists now but you just gotta turn off a few things. you can turn off monsters and poop. crafting is still fun. i dunno dawg

yes im not surprised someone modded it out

has modding progressed past the point where every mod has to be updated and reapplied every time the game updates?

i'm pretty sure the final version of the game was far more mod friendly than the previous versions
all of mine have still worked over the updates
i could be wrong in this case though, i don't have this hunger bar thing

Post by: zephilicious on March 27, 2013, 12:09:47 PM
that may be, i had stopped playing before that

ill probably give it another chance at some point, but i had started to grow tired of it and the change in direction was the excuse i needed to quit

I can see how Legos and Minecraft are kind of the same idea, but somehow the boring presentation of Minecraft just makes me want to scream rape.

i just feel like i'm wasting time when i'm just sitting around focused on a new album
but minecraft is worthless and mindless enough where i can just build poop and not worry about anything

so i can still focus on listening to music or what people are saying in podcasts and not feel like i'm wasting my time

i realize this is a weird personal quirk but this is honestly the only reason i still play it

i dont like listening to anything other than a game's intended music when playing.

I just browse poopty forums when I need a background activity. Though good albums have no problem capturing my attention entirely.

they capture my attention i just feel like i need to be doing something other than just listening to music
like driving or playing a mindless game where I don't feel the need to listen to the intended music

Completely different. Honestly. Ambient does not mean anything close to bland. There is a lot of great ambient music. For instance, movie soundtracks with good music are often ambient. Video game music. Stuff like that.

Well I suppose ambient music wouldn't be a problem for an otherwise exciting game. But Minecraft is the epitome of boring and pointless.
