Well, Minecraft's graphics look a bit "out-dated" don't they?

That's the style they're going for, plus the graphics are due to be updated.

Minecraft sold over 900,000 copies!!!!!!!!1!!!!
A lot of people are reading his twitter.
Minecraft is awesome.
And it is just cool to know that the (probably) most successful indie developer has bought Amnesia.

Minecraft is a terrible game.

^^

The game is nothing more than a poor man's level editor for people who lack the patience, or intelligence to learn to create their own worlds via a proper means.

The fact that this even fills a niche should be depressing.

Wow you guys play amnesia but still think Graphics > Gameplay. Minecraft is awesome.

@everyonesayingitsucks:
Some people have different tastes, some people says Amnesia sucks.
Minecraft isn't just a level editor, it is actually far more than that.
Classic isn't the only one out there, there is also Beta/Alpha/Infdev/Indev.
Graphics isn't everything, game play is.

So what? Do you know that he buys coke too? Should we make a thread about that too? Smile

Get my point?

A fellow indie dev who is internet famous likes the game we all love, too. Well, Edmund McMillan of Super Meatboy and Gish fame also really likes Amnesia! Enjoy your stardom.

You sir fail at logic. It's fills a niche like other games like tetris fill a niche, it fills the creative and destructive desires of the brain.

Who would have thought that a simple game where you could have fun creating/destroying stuff as complex as you want would appeal to quite a few people? What would the average person have more fun in.... Minecraft? Or the UDK?

It's all about effort vs reward.

And before you start saying minecraft is for dumb people, watch the youtube video where someone creates a working CPU in minecraft, that can do simple calculations like the Fibonacci sequence..

Mods, please, close the thread and delete it.
