    I just have to be “that guy” but Minecraft didn’t release a playable build until 2009, so that’s only 17 years. Not “decades.”

      “only” 17… I remember buying it after playing the alpha in my browser, seemed longer than 17 years

        Do you miss the simplicity of it back then?

        I think I started playing it either in 2011 or 12

        I recently replayed and beat it as I’d never killed the ender dragon before. I feel it’s too clunky with all the additions for my tastes, like pre-enchantment tables is my preference

        I know it’s semantics and doesn’t really matter, but it just bugs the hell out of me when people use hyperbole like that.
