Zero Punctuation: Minecraft

[Rickyvantof]

I hate lava so much. I always fall in some lava just when I decide to go back to the surface to store all the diamonds and iron and whatnot...all of which will burn along with me. It's one of the few things that make me rage.

great review i was surprised Yatzee liked it
and very true

my goal has lately been the construction of my own personal skyscraper higher than the mountains
though right now its only three floors high

 

[KiKiweaky]

Epic review, kept the lols flowing through the entire thing and the ending is a masterpiece haha =D

 

[Dice Warwick]

when I started I was like "What is this peace of crap!" three days then passed and there I am building a fort to keep the monsters out to have a spider riding skeleton jump over my wall to just ruin my day. oh and now spiders can clime wall to, and so I now build cactus forts! Clime that you fucking arachnid!!!

 

[JaeDorian]

Well.. that pretty much sums MC up better than I ever could.

 

[PinkiePyro]

I am surprised that Yahtzee took the high road when it came to describing the creepers

 

[Ixal]

Great.

Now do Dwarf Fortress.

 

[Daniel_Rosamilia]

Fucking creepers.

Seriously fuck creepers, those things keep spawning in my castle and force me to repair my second floor

OOOOOOOH, IT'SSSSSSSSS ON NOW.
SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Anywho, I quite liked this review, and if you're wondering why it took ages for the Escapist to load, the fact that half of /v/ invaded to watch might make a bit of sense.

 

[Skarlette]

Wow, I'm actually surprised that he liked it.( At least, I think he does. It's sometimes hard to tell.) It's an awesome game, and it definitely deserves props, but at the same time my cynical little self didn't think it'd be up his alley.

 

[antipunt]

It's funny that I never really truly understand what Minecraft IS. Like...really is. So apparently there are kamikaze shrubberies?

Slight tangent, that was the funniest intro I've seen in a while.

 

[Feste the Jester]

I don't really find that getting the items at my whim makes it unsatisfying. I've been playing on a server where we can ask for any items we want and I would have never created my glass pyramid/reverse pyramid stacked tower of several thousands of blocks if I had to mine all of it. It makes giant projects more feasible.

 

[Misterian]

I'm pretty glad this game got reviewed.

I saw screenshots and some in-game footage, yet I still couldn't understand what that game is about.

And sorry about the flood, Yahtzee, I hope things get better for you.

 

[CopperBoom]

Since I have not ever played the game, do Creepers really look like big green pricks or is that a "knob" joke?

Indeed they do, my roommate and I refer to them as the exploding penis monsters.

Oh okay.
Thanks for reporting, the video was kind of "cock heavy" so I was not sure if that was just more of the motif.

You tell me;

Spoiler: creeper picture

OT; Find it weird that he does a review off minecraft when it´s in it´s beta phase. And I think Notch have "make a tutorial" on his to do list in the far future.

Hmm... I think I am corrupt from the review version, it all looks like cocks as far as I am concerned. Everything is a dick!

Well, I mean, beta or not, it has been playable, *played* and quite "en vogue" for quite some time now. These reviews are arbitrary and up to his disgression so nothing, not an iPhone one or a game in beta, is very surprising to me.

I am just happy to have a review at all each week.

 

[RTR]

I was wondering how Yahtzee was handling the flood.
This is the second week in a row where a video on The Escapist tells me that sometimes shit just happens.
You know, when just recently I crashed my car and have fallen behind on my assignments.

 

[lokiduck]

There's Lper on line I watch. He spent hours making a huge castle that was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. Then one day he went to light a fire in his oven and the whole thing burned down. It was priceless XD

 

[elbowlick]

Wow, for once I created a phallic monument (as large as the game allows, of course) before Yahtzee mentioned anything. And of course, because I'm so flippin boring, I'm the only one who enjoys Minecraft for the exploration. It's fun finding pockets of empty space deep underground and adjusting my tunnels accordingly. Also, I hate accounting so I can't be completely boring, right? Right!?

Also, I can't wait for the part 2 review of Duke Nukem Forever in March. It better happen, and it better be lulzy or else...I'll be fairly disapointed and come back to watch the review the week after.

 

[Joe Deadman]

Man I really want to see Yahtzee's skull fort now .
And yes creepers are jerks

Spoiler

(just happened to me about an hour ago guess im not leaving the house ever again D

 

[duchaked]

lol good job napalming the world hahaha

 

[FallenMessiah88]

Well thats it...Guess i'll have to start playing Minecraft now! Bye bye social life...what little i had to begin with...

 

[Balmong7]

Yahtzee didn't say anything mean... *faint*
