when I was in middle school I racked up over half a YEAR playtime in Minecraft and gave myself carpel tunnel. I only played Minecraft 1.8.9 which was at least 10 versions out of date by that point. I never even made anything I just played on Hypixel.
I did get full superior dragon armor in Hypixel Skyblock by spotting that you could buy a fish for 2 coins but sell it for like 20 coins if you craft it into bait because people are lazy. So I bought and sold millions of fish 2,500 at a time.
I later found that you could just craft dragon armor using shards and sell them on the auction house for about 100k profit and made BANK before other people caught on.
I loved finding those little market loopholes. Sad that nerds eventually caught on and made websites to automate it, and that the game went pay to win. Those were some good times though.
also hot take but dwarvern mines ruined the game. It’s “SKYblock” not “infinite land block”
Now that makes me feel old. I played a bunch of minecraft, but abruptly stopped and never went back. When i played the beat gear you could have was diamond armor and diamond sword. The other day i randomly watched. a minecraft video and was like: what’s all this?
Some of the new stuff is actually kinda nice though, and the newer music is a whole vibe. That being said I’m playing gtnh which is like… 1.8 heavily modded with some newer stuff backported.
If you played Minecraft then you’re not old.
Idk, i showed my friends mom minecraft at the time and she played around 100 hours. She’s 75 now
Minecraft became popular when I was a 12. How old am I?
spoiler
Take the year and substract 2000. Thats the answer
I mean… Diamond is still the 2nd best and the newat teir is still fairly new.
Majority of the new stuff they’ve added is just new blocks to build with.
But ypu can enchant stuff? And tgere is a boss at the end.
Oh shit okay yeah if you stopped play waaaaay back before then end was added then I can def see the confusion.
Enchanting and the ender dragon have been in the game for so long that even they are considered fairly ancient features.
