One Block at a Time: How Minecraft Lost Its Simplicity (Retrospective)

Minecraft has evolved and changed significantly since it's creation, going from a simple game filled with charm and potential, to a more complex game filled with stuff to do. This video will take a look into how Minecraft lost that simplistic sandbox feeling and took on a more linear style of gameplay through pre-classic, classic, indev, infdev, alpha, beta and the full release of the game. Just one block at a time. Cameos (In order of appearance): - @Kohana64 - twitch.tv/volaris_ - @CrossVee A huge thank you to each of these cameos for being a part of this project!
