So, I discovered Minecraft last September, and it's myriad mods. I was intrigued and started playing...
6 months later I come up for air and remember my poor map I was working on, waiting in its little corner of my hard drive all this time, crying silently to itself, wondering if I'll ever love it again.... I open it up, apologize for my absence, and shower it with attention in a pitiful attempt to make up for my neglectfulness. All seemed to be getting back on track.
Now, Mojang has dropped a new huge update and I feel myself being sucked back in.
I played vanilla for about 2 weeks before getting bored. It's the tech mods that really keep me coming back. They are simply fantastic for someone who loves over-engineering stuff.
ye ive been hooked for about a month and have been realising that i am wasting my time :S i feel like i do when i play world of warcraft. i keep on wanting to collect stuff to build awesome stuff and survive but i keep blocking out other stuff i need to be doing :S
I think i need to bite the bullet and uninstall it or something because im gaining little from playing it(maybe a few friends and building on my artistic skills).
While I agree it is an enormous time sink, I don't find my time with it useless. For example, redstone contraptions have actually taught me how to build binary logic circuits, which I had never had experience with before. Really, its the tech mods that keep me interested though. Buildcraft, Industrialcraft, Redpower, Railcraft, and Forestry being my big 5. The amount of possible machines becomes near infinite, and I keep finding new ways to not have a real life....

My poor, poor map. Please send flowers....
That is what makes Minecraft so fantastic. You can't stop playing.
