Many times in the past I had gotten bored of Minecraft. That is normal, you can't play a game forever without getting bored. However Minecraft is the only game that I always come back at some point.

Less a matter of losing interest in MC as a whole than finding the updates less and less attractive.

I prefer long kept worlds [​several years] and the mechanics changes in recent updates have tended to break things. [​e.g. Several kilometers of Overworld ice roads that ceased to be mob proof due to 1.13's MobB ]

I play an SMP with my bros and some creative when planning a build on the server but a little more than half my time these days goes to War Thunder.

I personally play only a day or dwo after the update to see whats new

Minecraft is in fact dying, and the biggest server in Java edition shows it, not only it's dying, but it's getting extremely hard and less enjoyable to play, if I take Bed Wars as example, today near every match contains four sweaty suspect players doing a party to make your chance of winning to be 0%, while in about 2021 it was not like that, it had 15K players, and sweaty suspect players was rare, since I can easily remember that every match in this time was always players without ranks that plays safe, now today if you want a chance of winning, you need to quit from the lobby match until you find a match that doesn't have a team rushing madly in you in the first 10 seconds and destroying the three beds in 2 minutes, and can take a long time to find a match without these.

Personally, I don’t tend to play on servers much. Most of them are minigames servers, and while they’re occasionally fun, they get repetitive quickly. I mostly just play single player survival.

Minecraft comes in waves for people. Our little gaming community helps beat boredom in the game, but even still people go through phases of on again off again.

servers? never heard of em, i play singleplayer like a normal person.
