Hey guys! Today I'm going to give my thoughts on my Minecraft is SO ADDICTING!

First, let me start off on saying that when I first played Minecraft, (which was May 18th-ish, 2012) it was a weekend. My eyes were glued to the screen for 14-16 hours throughout just Saturday and Sunday. I tried everything, placed every block and tested every block, too. Those were the 1.2.5 days. There's even more stuff to explore and discover now.

That brings me to my first point: Updates. Updates keep Minecraft new and alive; Fun even for people that have been playing for years. Sure, other games come out with newer versions, like Pokémon for example. But the difference is you have to buy the new version for the same and maybe more money than the original one that you had. The new versions can sometimes cost less, but not usually, at least in my experience. A cool new block or mob always leaves players squealing with delight.

My next point is Minecraft is very free. In most other games, you can do whatever you want short term, but eventually to complete the game you need to follow the story line. Minecraft kind of does have its own ending: Defeating the Ender Dragon (Or Ender, reference to The Creation of Minecraft :D) But it's a bit different. You can defeat the boss however you wish, and you really don't need to kill the Ender Dragon for "Success". For most, success is having a full set of enchanted diamond tools and armor.

My third and final point is that you can play Minecraft in SO many ways! Building, destroying, redstone, cooking, fishing. Those are just a few! When you step into a fresh new Minecraft world, the possibilities are endless! And in redstone and building, you can take things so far. Sethbling and FyreUK are two great examples.

Thanks for reading this article. I hope you enjoyed and please leave a comment and diamond. Have a great president's week! (Or week in general if your job doesn't have off for the week)
