Vintage Story is better.

Minecraft used to have a sort of meditative,melancholy and lonely atmosphere. But now with Mojangs lame additions and the community, it's original identity has been subsumed into endless wave of juvenile youtuber garbage

it wasn't supposed to be anything really, it was just Notch fucking around in Java

Just because kids play a game doesn't make it a kid's game

If a baby plays that game, it's for babies. I'm a mature man who only plays grown-up games that babies couldn't handle.

Kids love Grand Theft Auto and Call of Duty

This. It's supposed to be a game kids can play, not a game that markets itself exclusively to children. There's a difference between a game that just isn't particularly dark and "we are now announcing the latest update contains a WUNGUS who loves dancing and playing with his friends! Watch our low-effort Jumanji ripoff movie! Buy our merchandise!!!!"

realismfags ruined this game

My brother when he was a kid played C&C Generals, he trained engineers, piled them up and then rolled them over with tanks
I also showed him Demonophobia, which he liked
Gen Alpha should be even more crazy

My good friend actually told me he didn't want to play this game with me because its "for kids"
It's so fucking over bros...

no, but why would you play minecraft
t. put off by it being a kid's game as an edgy (pre-)teen and never got enough interest to go try it even after that phase

Because it's fun
Minecraft is basically virtual legos with adventure and exploration elements
It's fun to explore the randomly generated worlds, gather resources and build various things
Everyone can appreciate having fun anon

Yep, snow sucks cock now with that random quicksand nonsense.

it literally says "lullaby" right in the title

all ages includes toddlers

yeah I was never big into legos, that's probably it
ah well to each their own

it was supposed to be 3D Dwarf Fortress

instead the best we got was Millenaire and MineColonies which are just grindy babysitter simulator with tower defense elements.

both games took so long to add basically nothing between updates that they both became casual and woke.

No it fucking wasn't, i remember when his fat ass was lurking around here, no one bothered him with doing a 3d dwarf fortress

you can just tell by the way he played the infdevs, it never was about
He INSPIRED himself form DF, never wanted to make it 3d you triple nigger

god am i fucking tired of that argument

zachotronics owns you
play factorio

original identity has been subsumed into endless wave of juvenile youtuber garbage

Your nostalgia is blinding you. Minecraft content on Youtube was always kiddie shit.

Says who?

the first youtuber to make it big in France at least about minecraft is some boomer without a shred of hair on his head

Colorful block game

Not for children

All these Minecraft Youtubers are Gen X/Millennials making content for kids, anon.

Nah it's just you coping, it was just a dude in his basment making tutorial videos because this was what was working for other games

Unironnically why it appealed to kids so much is creativity, and kids have loads of it

Nah it's just you coping

Are you in denial that the entire landscape for Minecraft on Youtube is literally just fully grown adults making content for children?

It doesn't count because he made tutorials

People still make tutorials for Minecraft. It doesn't change the fact that Minecraft on Youtube has always been dominated by videos made for kids.

142246787027.jpg - 900x900, 57.43K

That is what I meant, the youtube slop type content replaced the actual vibe of the game in the zeitgeist.

Fuck, meant to reply too Yeah, but this happened really early on, man. Even when Notch was running the game Minecraft developed the rep as a kiddie game.

You have to be retarded to think otherwise.

minecraft provided an easy retard content for youtubers
enabling them to make billions or videos for children
that is what attracted children to it, retard-kun

fatorio is gay
milk me, boy

Your nostalgia is blinding you. Minecraft content on Youtube was always kiddie shit.

wrong

what is ratboy genius

what is Yogscast

what is pewdiepie

Some real fucking good reading comprehention on you faggots

I don't care about the current scene, havn't watched a youtube video about minecraft in maybe 5 years

I'm talking about the very early scene, early alpha 2010 kinda deal, there were very little kids, i was like 16 at the time and all the content i was watching was boomers older than me

there were very little kids

You're actually retarded and proved you are blinded by nostalgia. By early 2010s Minecraft was kiddy shit

you must be dumb on purpose or something, not gonna reply to such a bait post

This is the very early scene you dumb retarded nostalgia fagging retard. God this place is so fucking retarded.

X's adventures in Minecraft was about the Faustian spirit ubermensch shaping the world

>what is Yogscast

>what is pewdiepie

Anon... these are child entertainers.

It really wasn't, yeah. You can see it on Notch's face at Minecons before he up and sold the game to Microsoft that he was pretty much dead inside having to answer stupid kids' questions.

If you look at any other game Notch worked on, none of them were for children either. They're almost all extremely autistic survival games. Guy literally set out to make a 3D Dwarf Fortress when he started working on Minecraft.

lullaby can also mean someone who puts you to sleep so i guess minecraft calms you

Minecraft blew up when it was a game for babies - a 3D paint. Online Legos.

not really
it's just the nature of the internet, everything goes down do fit into little toddler's mouth eventually

before zoomzoom youtubers kicked in, back in 2009+ it was just a very popular indie game among neckbeards

I can't go back to playing vanilla. Not even for the modsloppa or the five gorillion stats made to pour hundreds of hours of my life into. Until Mojang accept that being a wandering nomad is the definitive best way to play, Tombstone and Waystones will always be the default for me.

shut up i grew up watching yogscast and podiepie!

Is this the thread where retards cope their child brains masked how goofy and childish minecraft is at it's core?
Like, there's nothing wrong with it, it just never was anything more grown up than virtual legos.

That "melancholic and lonely" feeling is literally your nostalgia creeping up to you and you coping over it.

I can’t relate therefore they are child entertainers

their audiences were always teens and adults believe it or not

No they weren't. Zoomers literally grew up watching Yogscast and Pewdiepie
I can't believe I am now watching people argue these dudes weren't child entertainers.

i was a kid and i was watching them jokes on you!
high five genalpha bro!

yogcast not child entertainers

motherfucking pewdiepie not child entertainers

Holy fucking shit kill yourself you permanent SPERM

hello everyone I'm PEEEEEEEEEWdiepieeeee

haha epic brofist *brofist yous*

"ah yes, grown up entertainment for the finest mature connoiseurs"

You were 14 at MOST when you watched that shit anon.
Jesus fucking christ.

get mad bro! MAD MAD MAD MAD

Umad bro?

I aint even mad.

lmfao

post some classic minecraft videos I want to feel the early 2010s nostalgia

YOU MAD YOU JELLY OVER PEOPLE ENJOYING THINGS AND ENJOYING THE THINGS THEY CONSUME LMAOO

fpbp as per usual

Download minecraft infdev version whateverthefuck from 15 years ago, build yourself a little shack by the sea, listen to the contemplative piano music while watching the sun go down. Then go watch the Minecraft movie, and tell me with a straight face that there isn't a mile wide difference in tone.

cant play vintage story, too brainlet

define “zoomers”. a lot of older zoomers watched them as teenagers in the early 2010s.

pewdiepie changed his style around 2016 so his audience demographics shifted towards older teens and young adults

next thing you'd be saying WoW was made for furries and trans back in 2004

define “zoomers”.

from 96+ to whatever the fuck

im reading your mind.. you've here since 2008?

Trans didn't exist back in 2004.
WoW was made for porn addicted coombrains with fried dophamine receptors instead.

The times change man. neo-Minecraft is now child normie slop

If that's how it needs to be so you can keep acting like you weren't a brat watching funny man scream back then, then sure.
It's crazy to see how time passes and suddenly pewdiepie wasn't mostly watched by children or halo 4 was somehow actually good.

you admit it! you're so much

Kids are getting older

2016

Thats way after the time period that's being referenced. Yogcast was already fucking dead.

It is not and never was for babies. It's for autistic men.

That is somehow a great argument considering
youtube.com/watch?v=YRgNOyCnbqg
I'd say it wasn't really specifically made for porn addicts but the type of userbase it aimed for was mostly losers/nerds with a lot of free time and terminally online even for the standards of the time and most of them were porn addicts by correlation.
So considering trannies and furries are basically the result of niche density creating black holes that suck that specific type of loser in I'd argue it's not really that far off.

you can't be serious

I..

don't you fucking dare put ratboy genius (actual unironic masterwork) down on the same level with fucking yogscast and pewdiepie (slop for views).

was it

In time you'll learn that just because autistic men play with

legos

dinosaurs

my little pony dolls

toy trains

doesn't mean the primary audience isn't... well.. children

where's the minecraft for adults then?

first post of this thread

that would be Rust

Hardest truth on this entire damn board.

looks just as comfy as old minecraft, might check it out
I don't have friends so this doesn't look like a game for me

when I was in my teens this video looked old
now I'm old, and this video is still old

ratboy genius

i miss him

friendless fag here
vintage story is kinda hard even if you tweak the game the way you want it to play. prepare for misery

I could probably manage
did play valheim by myself after all

I tried this and terraria but they are way too confusing since I'm so used to minecraft. It hurts my brain trying to do basic things in either game cause all I can think of is how things work in Minecraft (crafting, building). I realize that I probably would get filtered by today's Minecraft too if I had not been into it since before day 1. But maybe not as bad.

Neither was Legos I guess?

>what is ratboy genius

what is Yogscast

what is pewdiepie

Never heard of any of these.

Nah, If I let my Kids watch Yogscast, the kids would hear them swear then immediately die.

i still didn't finish valheim lmao
solo it is nearly impossible, it takes too much time, probably i am just too impatient. i still love the cozy shit i build there.

it's not an easy game tho. Combat is much harder than it looks and preperation is key.

you wouldn't get filtered, mc has a perfect game design, which is not to teach you shit and just make you learn as you go

Do you think of minecraft when you play other games?

I don't think the game explains how to get to the nether or end tho? You need the wiki to figure out how to progress don't you?

minecraft’s fandom throughout the early 2010s were teens and young adults. kids joined later when microsoft bought the game.

The game leaves half-built nether portals all over the world, with parts to repair them.
It doesn't directly tell you, but it damn-near does.

Same shit is how the End portals have eyes in them, so you know to fill up the rest of the gaps. It's just obvious. Tho the End portal is a lot more obvious than a Nether portal imo.

idk man I'm so dense I could never figure that out. If I had to play the game blind I'd probably never know that those things even existed. Why would I try something like that randomly without direction? No way it'd work. And then using a flint & tinder to light it? Figuring out I need the eyes of ender crafted into the special item? I see your point but I can barely find ways to get string when I play MC. Once played 10 hours before I got a single bow

Vintage story is overcomplicated trash.

that was unnecessary crap added later, that had nothing to do with core mechanic
the game wasn't meant to be completed originally
I believe it was just a polish thing, to make notch "feel" the game is complete
it brought nothing to the table gameplay wise

Why would I try something like that randomly without direction?

I already told you, you were directed to do it. By being shown incomplete things, and being given items to complete it with.
Just because you're not smart enough to add 1+1 together, doesn't mean it's "directionless". You just aren't smart enough to see the directions. Doesn't meant they don't exist.

You don't know that killing spiders = string?
And you think that's the game's fault?

where are the spiders? I get mobbed and killed by skelebros if I try to stay out at night. Combat is pretty hard and grinding food is so annoying early game

you follow the screeching

where are the spiders?

Outside at night.

Combat too hard

Craft a shield and hold right click. Combat is suddenly easy.

Food is hard

kill animals. They respawn forever on grass. You literally have infinate food as long as you are near grass or water (fish).

What is stopping you from playing the good versions?

mowang stole my legacy account

microjew stole my mojank account

pirate it then, you bought the game and didn't sign any sort of agreement with either of them

Same shit is how the End portals have eyes in them, so you know to fill up the rest of the gaps. It's just obvious.

I mean, the recipe for eyes of ender is not obvious at all. If it weren't for the recipe book I don't think you'd know what the hell a blaze powder even is unless you brute forced recipes
But I get your point. I'm too familiar with the game so I don't appreciate some of the ways you could learn without using a wiki. I did use the wiki a lot when I was a kid though

You couldn't beat minecraft blind without the recipe book before it existed anyway

I've never modded minecraft, where did you guys start? Which version has the "best"/your favourite mods?

I mean, the recipe for eyes of ender is not obvious at all

Why does it have to be obvious?
Why would making the puzzle more obvious make it a better puzzle?
Be specific.

I don't enjoy Minecraft with mods.

I'm way too uncreative to make cool looking houses in minecraft. When I was a kid, I would just make huge houses with a bunch of cobblestone I had from mining. So I think mods without modern mc bloat would maybe help me a bit.

Motherfuckers have been complaining about new changes to this game since classic turned to infdev.

Teenagers are children.

It isn't

nigga you were watching the modern equivalent of sesame street KEK

People complain when anything changes, if they're going to complain about what you did, regardless of what it is that you're doing, why should you bother lending them your ears at all.

I just wish they added all the biome updates they promised
That, some redstone extras and an end update, anmd they game wouldnt need any more updates.

It depends entirely on what you like about minecraft. There are mods for combat, enemies, cool automation stuff, farming, survival, building, etc. Just go on curseforge and start typing in keywords of things you're into and sort by most downloads, usually can't miss. Just don't go too crazy at first. Maybe use an established modpack (just google the best ones and pick what you think looks coolest)

What's the best mods for a PVE server?
I would like to make a PVE server (I just want people to be able to play minecraft without any worry) but there are a few too many PVP servers for my liking and it's just the kind of community I

you've got brain damage

buy an ad

Vintage Story made what it should have been thankfully

where did you guys start?

Technic packs are a great introduction to modded, specifically Tekkit for tech and Hexxit for magic. They're old enough to have a sizable amount of discussion online, so you'll have enough ground to kick off from. If you prefer wikis, m.ftbwiki.org is your best bet
Normalfags have terrible taste in modpacks, I wouldn't recommend
You'll have to look into plugins to set up PVE on a server first, only then move to mods

OK, but would that make for an engaging movie?
What would be the plot of your minecraft movie?

literally digital lego building

not for babies

what it should have been

a vaporware minecraft but with a le gritty grimdark for mature gamers mod?

digital outlet for architects and designers

for babies

why are people younger than me here
this is my website!
you are not wanted here! please leave!!

I knew it was over and the babbies won when pic related came out.

Why is this lion talking to me and asking me to leave? Am I going bonkers?

I've never beaten it but every game I have a crap loads of mods and always have some bizzare event happen that defines that session that lasts maybe a month.

It’s an all ages game but I think everybody agrees Mojang took the kiddie branding too far

imagine if human creativity wasn't being vacuumed up into the time-sink that is video games, and instead spent on humanity

imagine if humans weren't such faggots
you wouldn't be posting this right now

I'm not sure why you felt offended by that
You're clearly not creative

you jest first, i jest last
your b8 sucks

go go ga ga lick my balls

I can never play it anyway since you need the fucking gay microsoft store to play it

This fucking dumbass can't even pirate the most pirated game on the internet lmao

1.7.3 > Vintage Story > nu-craft

And why would I pirate the obsolete version 1.12.2 from over 8 years ago?
