You could apply this to any videogame. The point of any game is to have fun.

Aren't all games a waste of time really?

You can go as long as there is stone to mine. I was stopped by lava in two of my tunnels.

I'm not sure. I didn't find gold until I went deep.

That's a really good point.

I've never actually played Minecraft, is there a semblance of a story or is it all sandbox, fortress building shenanigans?

If there is no story or ultimate goal, then I can't talk myself into thinking I'm not wasting my time.

Diamonds are only on the bottom 15 layers of the map

Here is the MC Wiki guide to what levels to find shite

ETA 0 is the bottom of the map/bedrock

That and the goal is to survive. They did add an ender dragon character on the latest PC version to sort of give it an ending.

Should I clarify. It doesn't seem fun.

It seems like a waste of time because it looks boring. Walking around for hours....digging and building shite?

You are like a digital immigrant worker.

It kind of seems like a Roller Coaster Tycoon kind of game, except the goal of profit is replaced with the goal of survival.

I'd probably play it, like it for a short while, then get bored with it. But yeah, to each his own.

Basically they are trying to survive and show off to each other who can build the coolest shite. Sounds fun.

if the textures weren't godawful 8 bit 1995 windows type shite id may get it

"My big pixilated square block structure is cooler then your pixilated square block structure"
Like that kind of compare?

Survive? Survive what? Do you have weapons and stuff? And what is out there in a vast world of openness?

Sorry for the questions but "to each his own" doesn't quite tell me shite and im not searching for info as if I gave that much of a frick.

Why dont you just try it before you knock it and say its boring. I thought that about many games that I ended up enjoying a lot and Minecraft happens to be one of my favorite games. Shows a lot if it broke the record for fastest selling arcade game.
