i got a lot of playtime out of this before i got bored. if i had started when i was young, i would probably never have stopped playing. it feels like an exploration of liminal spaces
I think it's to say that, the way that Nevermind sort of unites the "cool" kids, nerds, critics, athletes, and so on, how people of all tastes have at least heard Smells Like Teen Spirit, people of all tastes have also at least played or know Minecraft. Along with Nevermind's wild popularity. In some sense, Nevermind kicked off a Grunge craze, and in the same vein, Minecraft kicked off a craze for these sorts of survival and craft games (and even blocky and pixel-y graphics for some time. I mean some of that is still around but yeah). Something like that.
Open to hearing reasons why this shouldn't be a 5/5 besides pure hipsterism. Seriously, purely as a game Minecraft has surely proven itself, even if we don't enjoy it so much anymore coz we burnt ourselves out of it, that doesn't truly reflect the experience it offers as a game to newcomers, right?
I often hesitate from changing my ratings for no good reason. I only change my ratings when I've confidently experienced enough of a game or through external factors like when I see someone give X game a rating I've been thinking of giving for a while now, so I agree.
