The Essence of Minecraft in 23 Seconds; Community Delighted

The entire spectrum of Minecraft experience presented in just over twenty seconds? That's exactly what one of the Reddit users presented, prompting admiration from the community.

IN A NUTSHELL:
  • One Reddit user created a short video that shows the essence of gameplay in Minecraft;
  • In just over 20 seconds we can see the journey from cutting down the first tree to defeating the dragon Endu;
  • The material sparked nostalgia in many players.

Anyone who has ever had the chance to play Minecraft knows that despite its lack of a storyline, it offers amazing stories that we create as we explore world after world. From chopping down our first tree to battling monsters from hell, we create a sprawling story about our unassuming hero. It's hard to capture the whole experience in one short clip, but that's exactly what Reddit user GEVids took on. In just 23 seconds he presented the entire journey that Minecraft players embark on.

The video begins as every game in the aforementioned sandbox - with cutting down a tree and building a furnace and a crafting table. Then we have the opportunity to observe subsequent milestones. The first found deposits of coal and iron. Encountering lava and building more advanced tools. The discovery of diamonds and experiments with mechanisms powered by redstone. Then we see the enchantment table, Nether portal and the last challenge - fight with the dragon Endu.

Even though the footage is very short, it charmed many members of the community associated with Minecraft. Players appreciated the work of the creator, who managed to present hundreds of hours of their experience condensed into such an imaginative form. In many of them the video also aroused nostalgia and encouraged them to reinstall the game. In the thread under the author's post we can find numerous comments in which players exchange their memories connected with Minecraft. Many of them reach back to the ancient alpha version.

If you feel the same while watching the video, it's probably time to restart Mojang's production, refresh it with the right shaders and set off to meet the dragon.
