This game was magical before my imagination fucking shriveled up and died. I miss when cave noises freaked me out or when I didn't know what aggro'd endermen.

But it's still great! A very simple world filled with plenty of tools for the player to mess around with, surrounded with some amazing sound design (seriously, you could almost guess what/where a player is doing at any moment by sound alone). If you're able to be satisfied with making your own goals, or have enough friends to build a (often dysfunctional) settlement, then Minecraft can provide endless enjoyment.

I just enjoy farming and fishing. It's just so comfy to fish in the middle of nowhere, watching blocky animals wandering their blocky world. Very solitary, almost melancholic, but I love it.

(Also the modding community is easily top 5. There is a ridiculously large modpack for any flavor of playstyle! Would really recommend Rustic Waters II for a lonely, underwater survival experience.)
