Minecraft is one of those games that I can't really say anything objective about, because it's strength lies entirely in the personal adventures you craft yourself. From a technical perspective, the game is very average, apart from the unique art direction of course. Solid controls, alright gameplay basics, it's not bad from that angle, but nothing outstanding either. The reason this is my favorite game of all time is not because it presents a complelling story or has interesting themes, it's because it has defined me as a person every since I first opened it. The possibilities are endless, the limits non-existent, I've made more memories from this game alone than every other game I've ever played, combined. Everyone can find something to love in Minecraft. You can build a city, commit genocide on a village, you can build insanely complicated machines, you can og to a server, play minigames, or maybe you just want to relax, wander about as you listen to the peaceful music, without a worry in the world. Minecraft is my escape from reality, I've lived a life in it, every time I boot it up I feel the need for exploration again, and the adventures I've had will always stay with me, forever.
