[QUOTE="Mecheon, post: 8976252, member: 6801776"] Its the chill vibes and the gameplay loop Okay so firstly, understand with video games 'looking good' is something people don't care the most about. The thing is moreso artistically fitting, and Minecraft has just, always had that art style as its thing. Frankly I prefer the blocky stuff much before the "Someone has just dumped a high quality car model into Minecraft", even if technically the car model is high quality, it just doesn't look right in the overall world. Yeah, I'm calling out popular Minecraft/Pokemon mod Pixelmon and just saying the blocky moodels were better. The gameplay loop in Minecraft is simple but rewarding. Punch tree, get wood. Use wood to make items. Use those items to harvest more things. Use those items to then make more things to expand your exploration and gathering. Break asunder the barriers between realms because The Nether has glowstone (for functional lamps), quartz (for fancy buildings), but also blaze rods. You need the blaze rods to combine with ender pearls to crack open another cross dimensional portal to kill the Ender Dragon so you can loot the End for its resources and. most importantly, get the Elytra and basically fly. But like.... You don't need to do any of that. You can just, cross the world and harvest every sapling and make a giant tree. Or just move into a village and defend it against zombie hordes. [URL='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubFU36hoVng']Or just program Doom into the game[/URL], because Doom runs on everything. You just, sort of can do what you want and its what you make of it and then you get mods involved and next thing you know I'm running Jurassic Park but also making deals with Fey Kings for resources we each can't get, with multiple dimensions at my beck and call, alongside both a functional nuclear reactor and a space station [/QUOTE]
