I played Minecraft for an hour a million years ago and at the time it was basically digital LEGO. Since then I’ve gathered it has a campaign mode or something, but my entire experience with it is creative mode or whatever, when it was accessed and played via a web browser.
And yeah, I’m aware lots of adults play or played minecraft. I still play with LEGO. But that fact doesn’t mean that calling LEGO a children’s toy is wrong.
Also I’ve been active online since the early 90s; 15 years does feel like comparative internet infancy to me.
It’s still just a Lego sandbox, but there are monsters and “progression.” I always ignore it. It doesn’t add much to the Lego sandbox for me. I only progress far enough to get the glider wings because that’s actually a fun mechanic. The balance and everything is kinda wack anyway. The Wither boss is ridiculous and I’m a Fromsoft fanboy.
I disagree in some ways, but really I just thought it was funny calling Minecraft players Internet toddlers. Pretty sure the youths moved on to Fortnite or something like that
Minecraft
Ah, so yes
wut
Wither was added in 2012 🤓
Which was 12 years ago

Yeah maybe. I dunno, everything looks like a skateboard when I’m shaking my cane from the rocker on my front porch
