I do get bored with Survival, and the base graphics are pretty lame…but we're not limited to Survival mode, and we're not stuck with the base graphics. I love Minecraft because I can use it to create any kind of world I want to, I make up stories for all of the "people" that live in my towns, when I play Survival I'm usually roleplaying a story rather than just doing it for its own sake.

they probably don't understand or just hate it's popularity. When ever soemone at school asks me if I play Minecraft I hesitate to reply...
1
I think it's because girls and older kids think it is a "baby game" or a "boy game" which is not true at all.
1
A lot of people think minecraft is stupid and only for building, but that's not true. I don't know why people hate it so much.
1
Because they think it's for nerds and dorks.

because they suck

Interesting thread. I reckon that many who dislike the game will tend to lack any creative spirit. Personally, the main appeal of the game has to do with creating and building. I see it as a 3D giant pixel world.
Also, it seems many people don't like the retro look of the game. Don't know about anyone else, but when I first played Minecraft, it did look and feel very retro. However, once you get higher texture packs, the game transforms. It doesn't take long to get into the game, then retro feeling disappears entirely.

I didn't play minecraft for a long time because it was suggested to me by a guy I didn't really like, and I didn't trust his judgment in games... or anything really.

I used to think Minecraft was **** before I ever played it because I used to be a bit too much of an anti-conformist, and I didn't like the hype it was receiving. I also just wasn't into the idea of the creative aspect. I get how wrong I was now though.
So there's people like that.

It's just....a bunch of shapes....How is it an actual game?

People think that because the graphics are bad, the game's bad.
Also, many people think it's all about placing blocks and is very
repetitive and boring. I completely disagree, but it's their opinion I guess.
Don't worry, there's loads of us out here, who love MC and don't give one if someone laughs at us, or tries to mock us!

Just read my blog, It explains it: http://www.planetminecraft.com/blog/why ... minecraft/

Becuase its "fun" its a trend right now like it was or still is hating on nintendo honestly im to busy playing games to talk about them most of the time. But a reason for a couple of good freinds of mind they say its becuase minecraft feels so emptey and since he plays x box its kind of boring and lonley unless you have freinds to play with him which sucks cuz i hate x box. anyway people got opinions and theres no use trying to change them

Funny thing, I used to play on xbox, and I love it so much. There were things I liked about mcxbla that I wish bled over to pc. Every time I got on mcxbla it was like a party with all my xbox friends. We were always building or playing each other's maps, it was a blast. Minecraft pc has more creative flexibility however, so I left xbox. Kinda miss it. ;(

Amen to that!

Because of opinions.

I haven't met one person in my age group who has not played or at least watched someone else play Minecraft, it's actually amazing. All my friends who play Minecraft love it, and all my friends who don't either don't understand the point of it (instant gratification is not how Minecraft works, hence a lot of people get bored of it quickly), or they want to buy it.
I will admit I don't tell anyone at school I play Minecraft, I'm somewhat popular* and if I said it it would become something people could break my balls about. I wouldn't lose friends or anything over it, but it could end up being a bit of an annoyance.
*popular |ˈpäpyələr|

Its not the graphics that's making the game look bad its the people who call themselves gamers but only true gamers believe in the story not the graphics..
in minecrafts case its not about the graphics, me for example if it weren't for minecraft i wouldn't have met all the amazing people i know today because minecraft inspired me to create a server and when i did i made so many new friends and and gained enw skills.. now im learning to code and program BECAUSE OF MINECRAFT! so the graphics don't mean bugger all xD
its the adventures you take and the friendships you create.
minecraft hate due to graphics? they shouldn't even be called 'Gamer' xD

Because people have opinion, some of you guys should really learn to respect and acknowledge that.

I've been playing Minecraft for about 2 years and just quit playing it not because of the graphics it's because of the Youtuber's who ruined the game for me. All I see on servers when I join is "HEY DOOD WANT SUM BUDDAR LOL CHIKEN NUGGAT BUDDAR!!!".
The game is great the YouTube community ruined it for me.

People need to learn that graphics aren't everything.

Sir, i approve of your opinions. People hate Most classics because of graphics, but they don't actually play them. same with MC.
1
Yep its also about what you can do stuff like call of duty isnt free roam like minecraft you cant get mods you cant craft ect
1
Everyone thinks it is blocky, it makes it boring they think..

It is just an awesome game!
If you think my opinion is right then just join my minecraft server.

Because people think the graphics are bad. Here is a life lesson.
GET A RESOURCE PACK!
GET A RESOURCE PACK!

Resourcepack like Sphax PureBD Craft then they will like the game.
Too true a Resource pack will do the trick

Too true. I bet Minecraft with maximum photo-realism pack and every optical improvement mod/shader available would look better than many other games out there. (sure the shapes would still be the same, but the textures and lighting will be fantasmagorical.
1
why? for parents because everything can be blamed on games, and minecraft is one of the more addictive ones.
for most of the gaming generation (Wether they are gamers or not), its because they got used to superfancy graphics, and can't see past that to gameplay possibilities, which, for minecraft, are truly limited only to your imagination.
what most of those people have never seen is minecraft with an ultra HD Rp and full shaders. with that it looks better than other games.

Because everyone's different and like and dislike different things. There may be a set reason, but that's the simple answer. c:

I own a server and I can tell you EULA is a b****! If you disagree to EULA.txt the server doesn't start (-.-)...
Maybe they're bothered by the fact that there aren't many regular vanilla servers anymore and that they're all HUBs?
If you had a game where you made thousands (maybe millions?) every DAY, how would you feel if some dumb person went, claimed ownership, made it free, posted it on all his blogs, and moved it to his website? Mojang's EULA protects that from happening (sorry if this is offensive in a way.)

Not how the blocks look, but that the fact that the blocks are too blocky, makes people think it is stupid.

If people complain about the graphics just tell them to get a 521x resource pack.

Minecraft is one of the only mainstream, popular games that actually is sandbox... Just think about it. [For PC]
1
People USED TO not like Minecraft when it was in Beta stage beacuse it was unpopular and weird. None had seen a game like that before. Now, most of people are fine with MC.
1
I don't like Minecraft because of the childish community. The game is alright (even considering I rarely play video games) but the community, yuck.
1
some people don't want addicted to it xD i have had people admit it to me xD
1
A lot of people don't like it because they never experienced real survival mode-- The times before creative. It used to be a survival game, but now it's just as everyone says: Breaking and placing blocks.
1
Cuz it coal
1
I just realized that most of the post on this forum Is sp am, ironically I just finished eating spam for lunch. No joke
1
arrogance, even Conan disliked it because he thought it was just about breaking and placing breaking and placing breaking in placing, he has never played in this life.
1
He played the xbox version, Conan never got to experience the awesomeness of the pc version
1
the truth has been said, but then again most people don't even know there is a survival mode on xbox.

My dad thinks that it looks old, but quite frankly that can be solved by just putting on a texturepack.
A lot of people find it childish, and I can see where they're coming from, but it's a stupid complaint anyway. I love Sonic The Hedgehog games and they can be childish.

as for OP's question, some people might think its stupid because u can do this:
