I’ve heard a lot about this game but I’ve never understood it due to how basic it looked. Literally looks like something you can play on Sega. ![http://cf.shacknews.com/images/20111216/minecraft-has-enchanted-armor_20384.nphd.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/4/3/43e6642f28e17022473e1cf62dfdd461f6b6926a.jpeg) However clearly there appears to be more to the game that I’m not realizing due to the amazing success that it is.

When i first saw it a few years ago I thought it was the dumbest thign in the world. And while I dont waste my life away with it like some do, its quite addicting, on more than a few occasions i found myself immeresed building the pieces of my world and hours had gone by… I have a few friends that play it that have some imperssive worlds they have built. Its pretty impressive what can be done with the game considering how primitive it looks. ---
