Comment on What is the next "grown up game" now that Minecraft only goes for children?

Slightly off topic here, but the most “grown up” way to play “grown up” games is to just play what you want and not care about what people think.
If you like Minecraft stick with it. Or just play any other games you enjoy. Only kids care what their peers think of the games they play.

Its not about what people (or peers) think. Its about the fact that minecraft isnt as fun as it used to be. Sorry if that wasnt clear from my post.

The game has changed a lot but also you might have too.

Thats a good point. I did change as well.

It sounds more like you have changed, rather than minecraft.
That is normal. People's tastes change.
That is such an open ended question as to be impossible to really answer well.
You have stated you no longer enjoy minecraft but not what you do like playing. So again, quite hard to make a recommendation.
Do you want building sims? Tropico or Cities: Skylines.
Other than that, I have no idea what to recommend.

Thanks for the feedback.
I do enjoy games like factorio, satisfactory, now jagged alliance 3, dyson sphere program, witcher (1+3, 2 not so much).
The thing that I liked about minecraft was that it was so tough to get into and the mechanics we‘re pretty obscure. if you didnt spoil it for yourself by looking it up you could really watch your brain working.
I made a server where players really needed to think to get going but most new players gave up frustrated because it was too hard.
And thats ultimately what bothers me. Minecraft in its infancy was cool for me for totally different reasons than for others (especially now) and I‘m probably just fed up with being the oddball all the time.
That make sense?

Yes, it does.
It sounds like the discovery of the mechanics was more rewarding for you as making progress and winning.
Don't be. It is the oddballs of the world that actually the agents of change.
Having read this I would suggest you have a look at Kerbal space program. On the surface it is a fairly simple game but the mechanics of actual space flight are very complex.
A good XKCD about Kerbal.
