I first became aware of Minecraft as a teenage student. I'd see younger students playing this game. I've never played it and probably never will, for I never understood the popularity behind this simple-minded, childish-looking game. Fortnite is another game that strikes me as similarly simple-minded and childish-looking.
When I think about Minecraft, I recall a semi-amusing story. We - my group - wanted to play Counter-Strike: Source (2004), because that was more our style. Now at that school there was a simple rule: no games on computers except Minecraft. Minecraft was deemed the sole exception to the rule.
We worked out that the staff didn't really know one game from another. So, if they objected to that game, our response was always: 'We're just playing Minecraft', and they'd back down.
I recall one day playing cs_office or maybe de_dust, AWP quick-scoping my way around the map.
Then I turned around and realized that several younger students were crowding around in awe watching me play. Probably because of my reflexes or whatever. There were actually several instances like that, but on that day, there were maybe four or five of them.
Later on, we moved onto games like Call of Duty 4 (2007). We'd have CS:S and CoD4 LAN sessions with my group - normal people - against a group of insufferable soyboys and literal queers that would say things like 'Why do you take the game so seriously?' to us simply because, unlike them, we played as a team.
Nowadays, Counter-Strike: Source and Call of Duty 4 seem forgotten while this stupid game survives, and, if this video serves as any indication, is far more stupid now than back then. That attests to the mediocrity and stupidity of mass man: to his incapacity to appreciate what is good and his capacity to appreciate what is mediocre.
I have not played a video game for over a year, but my 'philosophy' regarding video games is simple: When a new game comes out, play an old one. Games like Star Wars: Battlefront (2004), Rainbow Six: Vegas (2006), Call of Duty 4, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (2009), Battlefield 4 (2014; multiplayer only, campaign is mediocre) are noticeably superior to the bilge of the past ten years or so.
Some years later, I recall playing Battlefield 1942 (2002) on lunch breaks with a friend. My favourite was the Berlin map: he'd drive the German half-track (?), a vehicle with a driver and gunner position, around the back of the Soviet main spawn point where I'd mow them down with the mounted MG42.
Another memorable activity was on one of the North African maps. I'd stand on top of the German plane while he'd fly it, and I'd see how long I'd remain on the plane without falling off.
Games like that are forgotten while Minecraft and Fortnite survive. Survival of the shittiest! Grave injustice!
Edit: Must've triggered a bunch of Fortnite and Minecraft players, to a man stuck in adolescence without end.
Today's episode of shit that totally happened, episode #467
I remember discovering Minecraft on /v/ for the first time just after the Summer of '09 - I was mostly on /o/ and other similar interest boards back then. Me and a group of friends picked it up and played it during recess on our own laptops because it wasn't intensive on our hardware and genuinely fun to play during the days of Alpha and Beta, when Notch was at the head of the table.
Of course, we played a bunch of (mostly Valve titles) when we were at home in front of our desktops, but outside of PSPs and DS', Minecraft was our only option by necessity, along with Happy Wheels and anything else powered by Flash that wasn't blocked by our intranet.
cawadoody
The only people who really talked about yearly warslop like those titles were the turbonormies who got excited over sportsball. The fact that COD became the biggest franchise in the world during GTA's slumber is a testament to how many times you can repackage shit with a new flavor
KILL GERMANS
KILL RUSSIANS
KILL ZOMBIE GERMANS
KILL FUTURISTIC RUSSIANS
Ah well, at least the programming did its job at dehumanizing European peoples so that when you're drafted, you don't hold back.
They always have. Since Notch sold it off they have been pushing BLM and tranny stuff on the title screen.
Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeit
We wuz Stevez
Can you build a wooden cross and set it on fire in this?
Check out cubyz for based alternative
Hytale also looks pretty sick
The QRTWs are amazing. People are so sick and tired of this shit and it's amazing to see.

I'm guessing this is a pasta?

Not a single white guy in that line, closest they got was the chink on the right. Funny because their entire game was made by White men.
