Games like Skyrim or GTA love talk about open worlds, but it seems, that so far only Minecraft has truly embraced this principle. (…) This here is your story, that you simultaneously write and experience. All at your own pace.

Minecraft is a towering achievement in the very possibilities of gaming, and it does this without losing itself to either esoterica or cynicism. It is a game anyone can play and anyone can get something out of, no matter how skilled or imaginative they are. They will make something and they will have an experience that feels like theirs and theirs alone.

Just talking about it, Minecraft is definitely a title that just about every person on the planet has heard of, but it’s actually very difficult to explain unless you’re actually familiar with it. At first, it sounds incredibly basic. Just a blocky world to mine resources, build, and survive. Of course, it is referred to as a ‘sandbox survival game’ title. In most games, you are provided with an objective. The story and levels tell you what to do. Minecraft is not such a game. When you first spawn, you are not provided with some sort of tutorial, and you're left without any sort of cinematic. You start off by finding yourself in just another randomly generated world, and it is up to you to, well, "figure it out" and explore. You could go along the "survival" route and obtain some wood, craft yourself a tool, and fend off monsters during the night, but the game never forces it on you. The biggest reason Minecraft stands out is the freedom it gives you. Every part of the world is made of blocks that you can break and place anywhere you want. That means the entire world is basically a giant paint canvas that lets any player who plays the game paint their own vision and lets them do more than just play. If you want to build a massive city, an underground base, a sky island, or even try to recreate real-life landmarks, the game lets you do it. There isn’t a “correct” way to play, which is very different from most games. Minecraft allows you to play it the way you want because it has lots of worlds, and you can select the ones you prefer. Survival has obstacles to overcome, such as mining resources, exploring caves, and becoming more powerful. In creative mode, you are not restricted to anything. You have infinite resources, and you can fly. You also don’t have to concern yourself with death so that you can explore and build. It is not really a game but more of a digital palette where people can show their expression. Minecraft is cool since it mixes a bunch of game types into one. Sometimes it feels like you're just trying to survive, sometimes it feels like you're on some crazy quest. And, you can build stuff, or just hang out with friends on a server! One day you might explore a lot of caves. Next, you might decorate your house. Then maybe you go trade with villagers, or play mini games other players made. In the end, what makes Minecraft so great is the amount of control it allows the player to have. The game never puts it into your head what it is you are supposed to be doing, it lets you decide. Whether it is beating the Ender Dragon, doing something creative, such as building an impressive structure, or just exploring, it allows you to do what it is you want to. These are the elements of why people continually go back to Minecraft every year.

Sin ningún tipo de duda, el mejor juego de la historia, este juego me cambio la vida. Hay posibilidades infinitas de hacer tu historia, infinitos mundos, es increíble. El poema del final del juego es una de las cosas mas hermosas que e leído en un videojuego. Inmediatamente de leerlo tuve que venir aquí a darle un 10 a esta experiencia maravillosa. Si tienen la oportunidad de pagarlo háganlo, jamás se arrepentiran

For anyone looking for the ultimate in expression and aesthetic satisfaction, or merely searching for a game that will virtually limitless exploration and achievement, Minecraft offers it all.

In the end, Minecraft is what you make of it, and that's the beauty of the game. Whether you want to spend hours at a time experimenting with digital Lego or playing a hack-and-slash version of Wolfenstein 3D, Mojang's unique achievement allows you to do either and more. While it still has some pixilated edges that leave it feeling unfinished, few games in recent years have done so well with such a promising concept and offered so many opportunities for true exploration.

Happiness and distraction; that's what gaming is all about really and it's something that Minecraft, for all its abstractions and division, delivers in spades. You can build cathedrals with your friends; create macro-scale machines on your own or simply drift, floating through impossible landscapes that can bend to your will - do anything you want! That alone gives Minecraft a little bit of magic.

Minecraft isn’t just a game; it’s a platform for boundless creativity. From its procedurally generated worlds to the vast array of tools at your disposal, every playthrough is a fresh canvas. Whether you’re crafting intricate builds, exploring deep caverns, or surviving in the wild, Minecraft constantly encourages exploration and experimentation. Its simplicity is its strength. Combat, crafting, and exploration are all easy to grasp but rewarding to master. And with regular updates, mods, and multiplayer support, the game remains as relevant as ever, growing alongside its community. A true masterpiece that encourages creativity in every form, Minecraft is a timeless classic that will inspire players for years to come.

Minecraft does a lot right, such as its sandbox and creative side, but it gets a bit repetitive once you step into the survival aspect. There is a lot of replayability here, but that point of replaying can be reached quite quick. The act of getting wood, getting ores, and beating the ender dragon is really not as entertaining as it once was, and the newer updates are not helping since the game was in a state where it could have been left about 7 years ago.

Gli ho dato anche troppo, da quando Notch lasciò il suo gioco sta prendendo una brutta piega, i bug sono il gioco stesso ormai, viene aggiornato troppo, e rende le mod e texture pack inutilizzabili ogni volta. I Server famosi e non italiani ormai son falliti quasi tutti apparte qualche nuovo da poco che tanto mi dispiace dirlo ma faranno la stessa fine, sempre a causa dei troppi aggiornamenti e bug che rendono una brutta esperienza. Lasciando perdere che ha enormissimi problemi per via dei troppi cheater e che ogni versione che rilasciano gli fps scendono visto che aggiungono aggiungono ma non ottimizzano un cazzo di nulla (giochi come gta v fanno più fps di minecraft che è un gioco con i cubettini). Speriamo che la 1.18 salvi questo gioco, non ho altro da dire

Minecraft es el juego al que cualquier desarrollador de videojuegos deberia aspirar a hacer algun dia... aunque no en todos los ambitos. Minecraft existe desde el 2009, lanzado oficialmente en 2011, es decir, es un juego que por lo menos tiene 10 años en el mercado, 10 años en los cuales no se ha dejado de hablar del juego, el contenido que se crea alrededor de es el tremendamente abundante y es uno de los juegos sino es que el juego mas rejugable en la historia de los Videojuegos, No me mal entiendan, Minecraft es hermoso, el concepto del mismo ha cautivado a millones de personas alrededor del mundo y no es por nada, el juego es una joya que todos debemos de jugar al menos una vez en la vida, mereceria una calificacion mucho mas alta, pero es un chiste de muy mal gusto que aun despues de las millones de copias vendidas, la mercancia, el Market Place del juego y muchas otras fuentes de ingreso que Mojang han pasado 10 años en los cuales las actualizaciones hacia Minecraft han sido casi NULAS y la gran mayoria de las que han implementado recientemente (7 años despues de su lanzamiento y tras casi morir) han sido solo implementaciones de los Mods de la Comunidad de Minecraft. Me gustaria poder darle un 10 a Minecraft, pero la verdad es que Mojang no tiene pretexto alguno para hacer de Minecraft el juego en el que debio haberse convertido hace tantisimos años.
