Is Minecraft A Good Use Of Time?

January 9, 2023

Someone has recently posed a very interesting question. They posted an epic castle to the community and asked if this was a night well spent or not. The thread sparked a long conversation. The general consensus was that “Time You Enjoy Wasting is Not Wasted Time”. But we would like to guide you a little deeper into this conversation, if you are so inclined to keep reading. Basically this question shouldn't be asked because it implies that people can be judged for something that they enjoy.

Sorry if we're starting a bit of a rant here, but it always annoys us when a person tries to tell another person they waste their time when doing something. Our time is pretty much the only thing we really have. Others can take it away from us, but we can always choose, in a way or form, how we divide our time up between different tasks. If what you enjoy is making magical castles in a distant world, where land is made of giant cubes, then all the more power to you! Especially seeing as most of the people who try and tell you that you are wasting your time spend most of theirs cramped behind a desk from 9 to 5, and probably will for years to come.

Keep building. Stay awesome.

Theory: In Creative Mode, You Are Herobrine!
Think about it. Many, MANY people choose to just go around and build seemingly random and often symbolic structures. Most of us have a decent grasp of redstone and therefore build lots of traps. There is not one person who can't say they have not/will not decimate a village. Preferably w...

Food Source That Bites Back

Villagers not farming?
