There is no free beta. You can play the classic alpha version, which is a very old version of minecraft.Stabby Joe said:
If you buy an account now, you get a discount on the release version, with the bonus that you can play the beta now.
And be carefull, it's not so much an addiction of "I got to play!" more a "hey, where did the last 10 hours go?"

So, Yahtzee likes Minecraft, and mentions the Goodies. This video could not possibly be better than it just was.
Minecraft is fun, but for me it paled next to Dwarf Fortress. After playing that content laden civilization sim, Minecraft just felt bland and lonely. Mining never held interest for long due to the lack of variety and interesting things to find. Building only carried so far before you just wound up with a series of empty rooms and corridors, which could be spruced up slightly if there was any furniture that could be made.
Those animals also get annoying. You can build a fort in the middle of the ocean and animals still flock to you like you're some incarnation of Moses.

Survival Multiplayer is in beta, and it's running fine. By which I mean I'm dying about as much as I use to in single player. I play it as a sort of pot-holing/survival-horror mutant. With a castle base. Mk 2.yourbeliefs said:
He nailed the essence of minecraft.
I really should study but i'm decorating my underwater Nether Portal glasshouse with lava rivers and working on my rafthouse.

I had a feeling he'd like it. I used to play constantly, but then kinda just stopped. I think I am going to get back into it now.
I think I am just too afraid to turn the monsters on and explore at risk of losing my house D:
Also one of the best things about ZP is reading the comments of the people who post before watching the video.

Playing Minecraft just makes me want to go play Dwarf Fortress.

I didn't like it either and I'm still being told by the fanboys (yes I REALLY mean that movie bob) that "OH WELL YOU HATE MINECRAFT BECAUSE YOU HAVE NO IMAGINATION!"Wolfy2449 said:
...to which I remind them of everything I've drawn built and programmed
which leads us to douchebag argument #2 which makes NO sense at all
"Well until you can create something BETTER then minecraft and SELLS better then you still have no imagination!"
...so wait
for making games from scratch that aren't very popular
I'm less imaginative
then the person that makes a giant dick out of bricks?
whatever...
