Hello, why is there not a thread about this glorious game yet? Who plays it? Who bought it? Who thinks Notch is a raging faggot for shitting all over us with this 'beta business?
Also, if you're just going to come into this thread say we're all autistic, please learn what it means, and stop being a hipster faggot. Thank you.
Oh discuss and shit like that.
The road I cruise is a bitch now, baby.

I've got a few screencaps.

Mining and crafting. In a nutshell. Watch some YouTube videos. Honestly, it's not that hard.

Imagine lego. Now, imagine being one of the little lego figures.
Now imagine, an ENTIRE WORLD made of lego blocks was dynamically generated. And is infinite. As you continue to travel, the world is generated as you go along.
And you can break apart said blocks, collect them, and then place them somewhere else. Certain types of blocks, however, require you to make tools in order to actually break them and/or collect them.
You can make various tools- pickaxes, shovels, etc. Aswell as stuff like torches that actually serve a use because of dynamic lighting. Did I mention there's a day/night cycle? Because there is.
Also, at night, monsters come about. And they will kill you. And some of them explode (Creepers, the green things you always see), destroying nearly fucking everything nearby.
Anyways, you can continue to travel, or you can mine underneath the earth and get various ores to build an awesome (if a bit lonely, unless you play online, which did I mention totally exists) empire.
TL;DR: It's the ultimate sandbox game, and is also being continually updated and added onto.

Did anyone mention yet that it's basically digital crack or something?
I didn't think much of the game until I tried it... then it became addicting. Same for nearly every player.

I have quite a few clients running Minecraft servers...and I can see that they are highly unoptimized server files. This game sucks up so much CPU and HD i/o that it's not even funny....I hate this game even though I haven't played.

you do realize most people who work on projects like this end up flat out quitting about now, right?
Yes, he upped the price. Boohoo. Personally, I'd rather this game get money than some shitty generic FPS sequel that's a rehash of the previous one.

complaining about the price being risen and having to pay for future updates is funny as you were literally given months and months of warning.

The graphics are terrible and while im not always one for needing crysis like graphics there is some limit to how shitty im willing to tolerate.

Once you get into it, the graphics prove to be irrelevant.
Besides, there are plenty of skinpacks to make the game look nicer.

Used to think the same thing. But once you start playing it, it has a certain charm to it. It feels like classic games, mixed with awesome capability (Again, infinitely and randomly generated land, etc).

Still, he could be doing a lot better. He upped the price without adding anything of value.
Anyways, how did you accomplish such wizardry?
