If you find yourself in a situation where you need to explain Minecraft to a clueless grandparent, the best thing you can do is (quietly) emphasize the numerous awards it has won and downplay its recognition.
Your initial response might be shock mixed with bewilderment, but saying, Everybody plays it ! To a clueless parent will get you nowhere. Doubtless, grounded if your parents take everything in life too seriously. And, truthfully, not everyone does play it, just the smart people who can?t imagine life without it.
So if your parent is questioning Minecraft and disagreeing with you over how you pass the time, tell them it got given the Innovation Award, Best Downloadable Game Award, and a Golden Joystick Award.
by receiving such awards it inspires us, the players, to be imaginative and leading edge to make our own games. There is so much creative freedom in this game! But do not emphasize that too much, infrequently things like creative freedom? Scare elders into thinking we aren't doing any educational.
Tell them this game has sold over 20 million copies and maybe they ought to consider buying stock. The game was profitable after only 24 hours on the market. As a gamer and a fan of being able to buy cool stuff, that completely encourages me to try and be cutting edge too.
And, if that doesn't work, (sorry kid) tell your mother and father the way in which the game develops survival skills as we maintain our fitness through hunger and difficulty. This game of survival is preparing youngsters for life. This game is harder than life.
If your mom and pop are still clueless about how important Minecraft is to you, show them some beginneers guides to Minecraft and let them play one game. Perhaps 2. After 2 games they can without any doubt understand how amazing and life changing this game truly is to each player.
