People don’t even want you to play a video game in private now.
"Gibbons cut in: “They’re illegal. They are not in any way affiliated with Microsoft. Microsoft, for Minecraft, has gotten a lot of criticism because of those community servers not employing the same safety standards that Microsoft does on their Minecraft servers.”
I thought only kids played minecraft. Are there really still that many adults playing a children’s game?
Those zoomer kids grew up and continued. Like the millenials that still play Pokemons.
Which is weird too.
What makes it a children’s game? Is it the lack of graphic violence and sexual content?
I thought mostly children played it.
We did, but now we’ve grown up :3
Some of us have been playing it since before it was popular with children!
how old were you when you first started playing it?
30, when it was in alpha, and I still play it today.
I know some people use it for more than “playing”
They build things like logic gates and Turing machines for academic purposes.

You’re prejudiced here, that’s all.
That’s like being surprised adults play with legos. Same thing except it’s digital.
Adults playing with Minecrafts.
Which doesn’t change my attitude about adults playing children’s video games at all. LMAO
Define “children’s video game”
I see your condescension and raise it-
All video games are for children sweaty. 😘
Wait til you head about what happened with Mario Kart
Bite your tongue, it’s Tux Cart! 😁
It’s not just about one game like Minecraft.
The game came out in 2009. If you started playing as a two-year old child then, you’d be an adult now. A thirteen-year-old child would be a thirty-year-old adult.
So why would a 30-year old adult still be playing a game he played at 13? I understand 13 year olds playing it, I don’t understand 30-year olds playing it
There definitely are things you grow out of. Things you liked as a child, that maybe you remember fondly, or can categorise as ‘thing I liked’, but won’t entertain you as an adult. So I understand the core of what you’re saying. But there are more things you liked as a child that, assuming the thing and context hasn’t changed, you would still like as an adult. Did you like Pizza at 13? Did you stop liking Pizza since? Or chocolate cake. Or beer. Or the film Back to the Future?
The things you liked about Minecraft are still around in modern Minecraft. It’s more likely that you’ll still like it on the same merit than that it appealed to a part of you that has changed.
I’ve definitely outgrown most of the movies, toys, and videogames that I enjoyed as a child. The only people I know who play and love minecraft are kids of my friends. Even my daughter outgrew it, and she’s 15.
