Well, this would be a good outlet for those that don't have money and/or space for legos.

i do actually.
its just so enjoyable, fun, creative and gives me the feeling that im spending my time wisely when im playing, bc of the immense level of ejoymet im getting out of it. its fun with other people, by yourself, its good to relax or just listen to podcasts or music while building. there is a world to explore, stuff to find, plenty of things to do as far as mining and building go. and overall its just too good to deny and my 1000+ hours of minecraft speaks for itself.
there is A TON of stuff it doesnt do tho, and thats where i can understand people saying "no, its not top 10". its just personally in my top 10, and im sure millions of other people.

No. But it's one of the top 10 most popular, sure. But I personally don't care for it at all.
Though I loved the idea of kids loving Minecraft more than them loving Fortnite. As it felt like a much better outlet for creativity and more.

Terraria is better in terms of being an actual RPG and having an actual progression system, as well as actual bosses, weapons, armor, etc.... but otherwise fuck yeah. Minecraft is an actual masterpiece of game design and it's the one game i can think of that deserves all its popularity. The actual endless creativity and gameplay possibilities that come from Minecraft is fucking wild. Even if you're not in it for survival, creative is fucking fun to fuck around with. And then the online just gives you a bunch of other people to create shit with and servers to play with. From every perspective i can think of it dominates. Fortnite on the other hand.... dear god.

Not to mention that the caves are frankly a masterpiece in atmosphere and visual design. the fact that you can enter an underground cave that manages to look so realistic and deep despite being made out of literal fucking voxels and pixel art is mad. and then they made the world generation and design somehow even crazier with the caves and cliffs update. I don't talk about it much but if it were the only game i could ever play in my life i wouldn't care that much lol

Yes, even just for creative mode.
The build possibilities are almost endless and you can create your own openwolrd. I've built giant labyrinths, complete with MASSIVE buildings dotted around like temples, castles, underground arenas etc, built replicas of real life medieval castles and huge, sprawling medieval cities and even huge underwater cities.
it's like virtual Lego and for me it's incredibly therapeutic. This makes Minecraft one of my personal all time classics.

My 11 year old son definitely does. I fkn hate the game, I think the premise is great but the look and way it controls are just obnoxious to me.

My how we've come such a long way.
As someone who's heard "games are for kids" more times than I can remember. We've come full circle to the point where they're considered a "kindergarten app" instead of an actual game.
If anyone was going to make this grasp, it had to be you Bo_Hazem. It was always going to be you.

Yes.
When it comes to most influential, it would be even in the top 5

Tried to get into it a few times and failed miserably.
And that was that.... until my daughter asked me to play it with her.
She then taught me the mechanics and it became a whole new paradigm shift with layers of complexity I hadn't imagined.

Minecraft is widely considered one of the most successful and influential games of all time, with over 200 million copies sold across all platforms. Its open-world sandbox gameplay and creative freedom have made it a favorite among players of all ages, and it has been used as an educational tool in schools and museums around the world. While it may not always rank at the top of "hardcore gamer" lists, its impact on gaming and pop culture is undeniable. Many consider it a classic and groundbreaking game that has inspired countless imitators and clones.

Maybe top 10 most iconic or high selling but nowhere near top 10. It feels boring to play unless i'm playing with friends. People overrate games way too highly just because of how iconic they are.

Idk what there GI hack is but it creates mindblowing lighting in indirect spaces. I assume because there is only 6 directions that surfaces can face helps alot in optimization.

This can be said almost about every game made ever. It's high subjective how it feels... The only objective metric is copies sold. That means someone show interest in the game and gave money to try it.

You can quantify how many copies of a game are sold but it doesn't dictate the quality of a game.

Never played it. I always sucked at lego. I don't have an artistic bone in my body. If I don't want to build cool stuff is there any point to it? Like is there an interesting core single player experience with a sense of progression and an ending? I watched the South Park episode about getting a horse in Minecraft and I still don't know how one would get a horse in Minecraft.

Obviously. It became a phenomeno for a reason. Also helps that I have a brain with a bare minimum of creativity. It's worth mentioning that I've "only" played it in co-op with my son, which I think is the proper way to play it, definitely helps on the fun factor.
If stacking a few blocks is the extent of how far your imagination go before going out of bounds then I can understand why don't enjoy it. To be fair, sandbox gameplay is not for everyone, especially if you're used to being saturated with mission markers.
