How the hell did a game with graphics this ugly and lifeless become so popular? Minecraft sucks and is a pointless game to sandbox in when looking outside the window to my left I have a game with far more interesting visuals to it, not to mention the smell of fresh air.Maybe I'm just playing it wrong by not using a CRT, OLED, or Mini LED display or something as opposed to a run of the mill workstation IPS panel. The sky and grass in particular along with everything else just feels so dull and lifeless, and I heard that those types of displays can really bring out the blueness of the sky.Or maybe it's because the game did in fact mask its graphical limitations better with the original textures. Am I just having a nervous breakdown?

Wait until you realize Notch hastily copied Zachtronics' Infiniminer.
ok go build a mud hut in the garden i guess lol
>>737436130Sandbox was super popular at the time and Minecraft is a very well rounded sandbox. You just don't realize how it felt because you are now way past that time. It is like how many don't realize that Super Mario Bros was open world for its time and felt liberating compared to most games. Also, its graphics are more simplistic than bad. They also happened to look a lot better than many PC indie games at the time though, as many were inconsistent and a bit ugly.
>>737436205isn't infiniminer a barebones non-game?
>>737436130Also, the audio engine sucks when you think about it. The annoying machines you could build were probably a symptom of that, but this game is seriously behind in a lot of technologies even compared to 1990's games, though I guess it emulated them well given you could run them on machines and operating system from the era. Same outdated rendering engine.Seriously, the audio is about as primitive as it gets. No DSP effects, no EAX, no ambient soundscapes, nothing to give it some life or dynamism. It's completely empty and devoid of life much like the world its self, but at least earlier versions managed to somewhat obfuscate this to a degree as the aesthetic played with these limitations.
>>737436439So was Minecraft for about 3 years
>>737436180Can you learn to speak in a manner that isn't comprised of the latest slogan you heard on the internet?
>>737436674>implying it still isn't to a degree
>>737436803
>>737436361It's way more fun to run around instead
>>737436425>ur just old and jaded man
>>737436205Infiniminer didn't invent the destructible cube world concept either, retarded YouTube zoomgroid
>>737437815>Doesn't assert the actual first 3D destructible cube worldRetard
>>737436130>when looking outside the window to my left I have a game with far more interesting visuals to it,just say you don't like videogames next time, normalfag
>>737436130there's more to videogames than just graphics. maybe movies are more your speed?
>>737436130colors in minecraft really need to be touched up. maybe their vibrant visuals will fix this but i cant play this without shaders.
>>737437072and still you are bitching about minecraft here.
>>737436130anons like this are the reason AAA games are so SOULLESS.He wants cinematic movie games
>>737438036>>737438191Who the fuck mentioned movies here?
>>737437975>4chan user discovers growing up
>>737438282op only cares about graphics. he doesn't care about gameplay, he only wants to look at pretty moving pictures. aka movies.
You are old. Probably always been old. Probably quite dim too, with no imagination.
>>737438359Why are you here
>>737436130It comes down to the fact that it was a pure sandbox. There weren't too many games that allowed you to do anything or mod the game how you like. Also people knew the visuals were garbage and installed texture packs and when shaders became available people started to use that.>>737436205The creator of Infiniminer himself stated that Minecraft isn't a copy of his game.
>>737438359Get a life faggot, unironically.
>>737436130>when looking outside the window to my left I have a game with far more interesting visuals to itwhy are you keeping your vidya outside you wierdo?
>>737438417p.s. forgot to mention: I am also a bit stupid

>>737436130>pointless game to sandbox in when looking outside the window to my left I have a game with far more interesting visuals to itSo instead of going out and playing that amazing game, you spend time on a vietnamese basket weaving forum to seethe about video game?Damn, must be a shit fucking game then

>>737436130Because its1) charming2) simple3) fun to playGraphics are a secondary concern to a gamer
>>737436130you seem to be the ugly and lifeless one
>>737436130It was an infinite Lego set for kids
4chan made it popular. Notch used to come on /v/, that's why we had a splash screen since Beta.
>>737444712Didn't modern mojang remove this and replace it with a reddit thing?
>>737444885Reddit was added before they removed it.
>>737436130oh yeah? can you go outside and sculpt large amounts of the world to your will in literal seconds? no?
>>737445469ironic since reddit was considered the biggest tumor in the minecraft community
>>737447117woo /v/, was added in Alpha v1.0.13 and removed in 1.17woo, Reddit was added in Beta 1.0Weirdly enough, Something awful is still in there.
>>737447698removing the symptons but leaving the root of the problemnot like splashes are important but this little detail reflects perfectly how mojang operates nowadays
>why play a video game when you can go outsideI'm starting to notice a trend of suspicious posts lately
>>737448068you need to get a better hobby than crying about a website with tens of millions of users
>>737451993you need to get a better hobby than bootlicking a multibillionaire company
>>737453784>if you don't complain about [thing] 24/7 like me, then you love [thing]low IQ thought pattern. VERY common amongst people that cry about reddit out of nowhere
