Chapter 229: Key Events in the History of Minecraft
Not only were online game designers surprised by the sales of Minecraft. The players were also amazed.
It hadn't been noticed, but tens of millions of people around the world were playing Minecraft. But then, a feeling of pride came over them. Having so many people playing your favorite game was fantastic!.
Of course, this only lasted for an instant. After all, for players, more people means more. The simple fact of being excited and proud was enough; what more could they ask for?
Clearly, players cared more about the game's content than the sales figures.
Initially, the videos with the most "likes" online were mainly about master builders creating impressive structures. Although at first they impressed, with exclamations of "an alien world," players got used to the surprise after seeing enough.
They simply watched, downloaded a mod from the Workshop, and tried it.
But soon, the creations of some redstone masters left many players baffled. There were all kinds of redstone music and mechanisms. One even managed to create a completely animated robot using sticky pistons and other mechanical components.
Many players were instantly stunned.
The previous buildings were at least understandable, but this redstone was completely incomprehensible!. But the thing was not to understand it; if you could, it would be great!.
That day, many players consulted the official blog or YouTube channels to see if there was any news.
An official publication quickly generated a wave of retweets, and a video skyrocketed to the top of the charts on the main streaming platforms.
The title of the video was simple: "Episode 1: Important events in the history of Minecraft."
Many players were stunned by the video, but when they saw that it had been published by the official Nebula Games account, they were instantly captivated.
Upon clicking on the video, the progress bar extended to almost an hour. The video was nothing special; it was basically real Minecraft video, unrendered. But what really aroused the interest of the players was the presentation within the game.
"On January 3, Minecraft was launched online, and that day, 969,231 players entered this unique world of blocks."
"Among them, a player with the ID [ewwqr] was the first to destroy the first block!".
"When night falls, dangerous creatures like zombies and skeletons appear one after another. How will the powerless Steve solve the crisis? Among them, a player with the ID [Master Builder] was the first to 'dig three and fill one'."
"Spend a difficult night in a warm bed. A player with the ID [What did you say?] was the first to spend the night in a bed instead of in a cave."
"On February 1, Minecraft was officially released. On that same day, the number of players exceeded 3 million. So far, more than 37 million players have entered Minecraft."
"The average number of blocks destroyed by each player is 418,941, and the average number of blocks built by each player is 231,236. The ID of the player who destroyed the most bricks is [Explosion is Art], with a total of 2,820,910 blocks, and the ID of the player who built the most blocks is [Candy], with a total of 892,031 blocks."
"Redstone technology is a unique system in Minecraft. It has magical powers. The player with the ID [Father, I want to be a scientist] became the first player to use Redstone technology to complete a minecart with rails. He is also the first player to use a music box to compose Redstone music."
"On February 5, the first mod [Duplex Villa], created by a player, arrived at the Creative Workshop. Its creator is named [Construction Site Master]."
"On February 19, the first minigame mod [Tanks vs. Evil Monsters], created by a player, was launched at the Creative Workshop and received 2 million downloads that same day. Its creator was named [Do you believe in the Light?]."
...
"These are the memorable moments of each server."
"War has never stopped from ancient times to the present. Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. The first server to start the PvP war was number 17."
"To date, more than 6 million players have participated in the battle and the number of buildings destroyed in the game has reached 31 million."
"Among them, the players of server 1611 constitute the most fanatical group of warmongers. Currently, the average number of player deaths on this server is 121, the highest. Currently, the player camps on this server are in a state of three kingdoms."
"The players of server 1211 are also warmongers. Since its opening, countless players have been fighting each other. However, unlike the players of server 1611, server 1211 is in the period of the Warring States, and each guild fights on its own."
"There is also war on server 2147, but some players stay on the sidelines. They have established the [Chamber of Commerce Alliance], raising pigs for the different factions, building houses and structures, and exchanging gold, redstone, diamonds, coal, and other supplies."
"Also on server 2147, the guilds that fight in the chaos are completely unaware that, thanks to their resources, the [Chamber of Commerce Alliance] is making rapid progress in technology. While the guilds continue to fight with iron swords, armor, and bows, the [Chamber of Commerce Alliance] has already successfully developed the game's first firearm. In the midst of the chaotic battles of the guilds, the [Chamber of Commerce Alliance] fired the first shot in online mode, declaring to the other factions on server 2147: 'My lord, the times have changed!'."
"The players of server 111, although it is not a peaceful server, are very peaceful. They also have the lowest average mortality rate, with only seven deaths per player. It is said that they want to build the first city in the server's sky. I sincerely wish them great success in this feat."
"The players of server 3511 are also peaceful. The largest guild on this server is the Cavemen. Unlike the players of server 111, they seem to want to build an underground city in the depths of the earth. More than 3,000 players have already died scalded by lava. A one-hour presentation dedicated to the various revolutionary feats of Minecraft also made countless players understand the saying: 'You never know how other players will play'."
"It's like watching a female character. Many will wonder if she is pretty."
"But who would have imagined that many players would adjust their perspective to see if they found something special?".
The same thing happens with Minecraft.
Although there are already numerous videos that show unique gameplay in Minecraft, Alex's video left countless players stunned.
