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

Still reading through hatemail but so far not one with an „I have a different opinion, here is it.“ am I frustrated? Absolutely. Is it ok to dogpile on me? Yes, if you’re an antisocial jerk.

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‘m very glad at least someone can see what I‘m talking about.
In any case, thanks for the positive and elaborate reply. My experience with minecraft has been very good as well, meeting a lot of cool folks. But yes, most people grow out of it over time.
