People on forums tend to hate Minecraft, CoD, mobile gaming, etc... They hate anything that is popular, especially if it is more popular than their favorite series, hence why you will notice a large distaste for Minecraft in the pro-Nintendo community. A.) It isn't on Nintendo consoles and B.) It's currently more popular than anything Nintendo related with children. Ask most kids if they play Mario or Minecraft and the large majority will say Minecraft. It really is THE game these days, whether the forum goers like it or not.

Minecraft is what children want. It sparks the imagination. It encourages building, whether it be alone or co-op with friends. When my daughter plays it she treats it as if she is playing house. Builds pens for animals, builds homes and towns with residents and pretends her character is a someone who lives within this pretend world of hers, much like she do if she were playing with dolls, which she does as well. She prefers to play in creative so monsters do not attack. For her it is entirely about playing in an imaginative world that gives her total freedom to play the way she wants.

The game is fantastic.

Don't forget Destiny

What is wrong with Minecraft gameplay? I'm now inredibly curious as to what you find to be an issue.

It isn't pacing to become the best selling game of all time because people don't like the gameplay. The gameplay is fantastic. It encourages imagination and building, similar to that of LEGOs.

Don't get me wrong, the building system is quite good...its just everything else that is garbage.

The combat is absolutely terrible, especially in PvP, the bosses are quite possibly some of the worst designed bosses I have ever seen, the terrain generation is far too simplistic and uninteresting, the mob system is badly integrated into the core philosophy (mining+crafting...so why do mobs drop pretty much nothing useful?) and the difficulty scaling is practically non existent, eliminating pretty much all challenge after about 30minutes of playing if you know what you are doing.

Basically half the game doesn't understand what it is supposed to be and creates a pretty terrible game to make the building more interesting. A lot should be done to overhaul the combat and redesign the mob system to better integrate it into the core philosophy of the game, which would make it feel a little more unified. I think the worst offense are the bosses which are broken and terribly designed, but have so much potential in a game like this...

When she isn't playing Minecraft she likes to watch Stampy and learn from him cool things to make, along with enjoying him hanging out with his Minecraft friends. Sometimes she tries to get me to play with her and pretend we are making our own stories and videos.

The game is fantastic.
