I hadn't played video games since 2012. My boy got a PS5 for Christmas, and well, we all know how that was going to turn out.
I've been playing it more than he has, after he's gone to bed, and catching up on a lot of titles I missed.
Anyway, I got into Minecraft. I didn't get the appeal until I started playing and now I'm hooked.
I've got a strong drive to explore, in general, and that itch used to be scratched by fieldwork. Now, I do desk work and I'm too busy with kids to actually get out in nature like I used to.
Minecraft kind of scratches that itch. I get to spelunk, see new stuff, and there's a non zero chance of getting my ass blown up by creepers. Fun!
This is a big part of why I still play. At a certain point, the blocks and pixels fall away and you find yourself gazing down into a lush valley with all the awe and reverence of someone seeing it for real.
As someone who while likely never escape the flat hell I was born into, that's enough to keep my flame aglow.
