God damn. There was this farm craft server I played on. You have a plot and you grow stuff on said plot and sell it Yada Yada. My grand idea was I made my entire plot vertical, spiral up around a 4x4 spruce tree. I would expand every level so I had multiple massive levels. It became a renowned icon of the server. I vividly remember when I started building it, in the rain, with this song playing. 7 years ago. I remember it vividly 7 years ago. Man, screw people who say video games are dumb wastes of time

Dude if that servers still up then you gotta go see if its still there. Slim chance but worth a shot?

[@ayakazumi1923]

That is SUCH a cool idea, holy damn!! Definitely gonna try this the next time I play on a plot server! XD

[@blueangels111]

@@ayakazumi1923 haha thank you, it was pretty cool not gonna lie. It was beautiful too. You can make it go sky high by getting rid of the leaves, placing 4 dirt and planting, bone meal, then get rid of the dirt and place spruce. Do 4 slabs wide on each stair, and then each corner do a 4x4 slab. I tend to do one plot every 2 levels so it doesn't feel cramped.

[@blueangels111]

@@KartsAgainstHumanity sadly not, I tried. The owner of the server was the richest for years until I came along. He noticed I was catching up quickly. He legit removed the farm craf server when I passed him. I wasn't blocked, I checked with friends there, they all said the server was gone. Screw you bilmurr77. You suck.

Why is everyone going “the good ol days” as if the game died, open up the game and play it again, it’s still here, relive those memories and create new ones Edit: Might have worded that wrongly, this comment was never supposed to mean "why are you crying“, but rather that yes, the times were good, and they’ll never come back the exact way again, but here’s still something that can remind you of it, there’s still joy to be had even if it’s different. It not gone. It’s just changed, just like you, and me, like us. But we’re still here, just like this game that means so much to all of us.

[@rabalder6705]

True, but we as people have changed. I played it last when I was like 6 or 7 and now I'm 15. A lot has happened good and bad but I remeber that. I was happier and me any brother took turns. He figured out how to make glad and I wanted that too. Moments like that won't happen again an all we can do is remeber how it was.

[@JaharNarishma]

@@rabalder6705 Well put! Even if the older players are feeling nostalgic, the game itself is more popular now than it was then. Minecraft is the most popular game in the history of mankind. There are a lot of players, the hours played per person is high, Minecraft streams and VoDs are viewed by myriads, speed running community is very much alive, tournaments with different rule sets are popular. I don't play nor do I watch it being played. Nevertheless I get it recommended by KZbin over and over again despite me manually removing the suggestions and leaving feedback as to why I am not interested. It feels like the algorithm says "Oh, so you like video games? Minecraft is the best video game. You WILL enjoy watching it!". The game is too popular for me to not know that it is the most popular right now.

[@bananabro1010]

I can remember playing Minecraft on my mothers phone when pocket edition was fairly new, and it’s a completely different experience playing it when your a kid, not knowing what your doing, when the game still had scuffed graphics. My siblings practically bonded over video games, and off all the fond memories I have with them, Minecraft takes up 95% of those memories and I have no regrets. I’ve watched the game grow up and be changed in different ways, seeing all the things people do with it. In 2016-18, everyone was bashing me for still liking the game but I still played it, because I couldn’t give a honk about victory royales. But then the game rose up again like a phoenix in 2019, and reclaimed its throne. I mean, it deserves it. Minecraft is an experience.

[@unoriginalhazard]

@@JaharNarishma it’s actually gta v that’s the most popular game of all time but I appreciate your value for the autism simulator.

[@JaharNarishma]

@@unoriginalhazard I had to check statistics for both games. Minecraft had a lot of easy to find numbers, while GTA V had a lot of specific easy to find numbers. There was not a lot of overlap. Numbers I found that can be compared are number of total players ever. GTA V has 22 million total players with 6 million active players. Minecraft has around 200 million of the normal game. There's a pocket edition and a chinese edition too. From what I've found, Minecraft has at least 10 times as many players in total. Active players are 6 million for GTA V and around 130 million for Minecraft. In 2020 Minecraft was the most viewed game on KZbin, GTA V was sharing the 4th-5th place with Fortnite. Minecraft viewership is growing. I am interested to know which categories GTA V wins over Minecraft in order for you to classify it as more popular. Nothing I found supports that stance.

I finally got the game and I will never forget walking through the path that was blocked.that song played as I began my journey.
