Not sure about Minecraft

I've been thinking about it recently: If it comes to PS (mainly Vita), I would actually like to get it.

The thing is, I do like Minecraft a bit, since it's so survival and creative, but I hate the whole hype for it.

I'd want to get it, but I don't want to be part of the people that play it. It's too damn annoying.

It's overrated, ridiculously mainstream and the perfect game to become friends with a stupid 10 year old.

So, my problem is that on the one hand, I'd like to get it, but on the other, I'd be ashamed to get it.

Can anyone make me feel better about it? Anyone else getting it for PS? Btw, that's actually a serious topic.

I don't see why you can't just buy games you think seem fun. This is why I said you're taking yourself too seriously if you're playing games based on social status.

If I stopped indulging in hobbies that had terrible fanbases, I would have stopped watching anime ages ago.

But it's Minecraft :(

I already did buy games that I usually wouldn't have and I even played Minecraft before. Totally legal, of course.

The whole hype for it is so annoying though. Yeah, I know it's stupid. Don't worry about it, I'll get it.

I just don't see why you should be so worried about the fanbase though. I used to be butthurt and refused things based on fanbases, but then I realized that once I stopped caring, I enjoyed things more. Especially once I started realizing that every fanbase is full of morons and the "stop having fun" guys.

Like I said, it's just me being stupid.

You're right. I just don't really "want" to like Minecraft.

You don't have to play with other people y'know. I dunno if this is the same on a console, but on PC I can pick and choose who to play with.

I've found over time most of the hype for Minecraft has died down anyways. In fact, I know quite a few people give it flak for 'not being the game it once was'.

Yeah, I know I can play with who I want to. It's not even about the people I'd play with. It was more about the people that play it in general.

But good to know that the hype is going down. hehe
