  • My adult son grew up on Minecraft. I think he was about seven when he started playing. By the time he was in middle school he was building working computers in it. He ran his own servers and met all his current friends there, from England and France and other US states. They don’t play it anymore.

    I’ve only played a couple times myself, but I still follow the Minecraft account on Facebook, because it was something he was interested in, and because my job is tangential to children. Even I can see how much it’s moved toward Roblox and away from the creative sandbox it used to be.

    I don’t think it was ever a game for adults OR for children, but I definitely think they’re making it for children now.

Then, over in the right column, next to the main the listing, underneath the “add to cart button,” “add to lists” button and “X available from other sellers” (at the same price) was something like "one available at $9 from (whoever the seller is). I could have added it to my cart from there, but went and searched their storefront, 'cause I wanted to give you the direct link to the product.
