Survival mode.
The first step to any new player of the game Minecraft.
It's an enjoyable gamemode, just you, and a seemingly neverending world where anything is possible if you put your mind to it. Build hundreds of creations, expand your home into a mansion with hundreds of rooms, golden statutes and fountains and redstone and--
Hold on a moment. You just realized something.
You've hit your limit.
That golden statue is starting to look duller and less shiny each time you come back to your little world and stare. The water in your fountain seems to be never-ending and plain. The hundreds of rooms in your mansion are practically empty, with nothing to put within. You realize that, for the first time since you've begun, you're bored.
"But Minecraft is endless!" You say you your screen, "There must be another solution."
And after playing on countless servers with fancy plugins, creative gamemodes, and friends to make, the first worlds you created start to collect dust. You forget what it's like to be without being able to save your home when you die, or to teleport from one place to another. The game is no longer dull, but you forget to lose what brought you to the game in the first place. Minecraft is starting to become just more than building a house and surviving the night. Much more.
Perhaps you will occassionally go back to Singleplayer when your internet isn't working, or when it's late at night and noone is on to play. An intense feeling of nostolgia begins to fill your heart with memories of placing your first crafted blocks, the first creepers you killed, the first dungeons you've found..
And then the internet returns.
With slight hesitance, you exit your world, and once again you are greeted with Hunger Games and familiar usernames welcoming you. The nostalgia fades eventually, and you once again forget how it feels to start anew.
This is what most of you probably have felt one time or another, and perhaps some of you haven't. But next time you open up your game, give Singleplayer a try. Maybe the basic concept and reason why Minecraft was made to be will make you play by yourself for a bit, and enjoy all there is, albiet it may not be what you're used to. But who knows.
Maybe that mansion will have a few more used rooms.
mmm. hi.

I do use it more to build in creative, but I'm one type of player.
I think as well, that it doesn't take much to get bored with minecraft because there is either an endless amount of work to do, or none at all because you've become to OP on the server and have to move along.
just sayin
