At its core, it has an intensely addicting game loop where you mine for minerals and always feel like you are one block away from finding diamonds.
Beyond that, the world is very immersive and lets you create elaborate homes and environments (think HGTV for gamers). Now with more multiplayer features and it's fast becoming the "Counterstrike server" that all groups of gamer friends have.
We just set up a minecraft server for our startup, and it's awesome.
- alttab 14y agoSetting up a minecraft server when you are trying to build a buisness seems like a big risk
- yesimahuman 14y agoReally? Not having fun with your team seems like an even bigger risk. Plus, what's the point of working your ass off and not enjoying your life? Not something I'm interested in.
- CodeCube 14y agoHere Here! Our team used to play age of empires from time to time ... it really helps make for a good experience when you are friends with your co-workers. I know that's not always realistic, but I can say it's preferred.
- alttab 14y agoMinecraft can suck hours away without even trying. That's all I'm saying. Foosball or ping pong fill that same void.
- yesimahuman 14y agoOh, that's 100% true. But there is free time after work and we all grew up as gamers, so that's what we love to do in our free time.
